He just didn't know why, but when he ate it again today, it tasted especially sweet and delicious.
I bought this especially for you.
As Xia Yingying ate her cake, those words kept echoing in her mind.
"So this is what it feels like to be remembered?"
As Xia Yingying ate, her vision gradually blurred, and tears silently slid down her cheeks.
Tears mixed with cake as she put them in her mouth; the tears, which were usually bitter and salty, seemed to have a slightly sweet taste today.
Xia Yingying held a plate with only a little cream left in her hand, covered her eyes with her right hand, and sobbed silently, her scarred shoulders trembling slightly.
She thought she had long been used to feeling alone, and that her heart had been hardened like steel.
But she never expected that just a rainbow cake would be enough to completely break her down.
She wasn't as strong as she thought.
The dim light from the bedside lamp illuminated Xia Yingying's face, which was still faintly marked with tears, and the girl could be heard snoring softly.
Under the dim light, the shadows of the two boxes of pastries were stretched long...
The next day, Chen Feng got up and drove his car towards the edge of the gold mine. With his system being so powerful now, he could find out whether there was any cargo just by taking a walk around.
He drove the car to the boundary on the map, got out, and squinted involuntarily as the glaring sunlight made him look up.
He looked back and forth once, then walked forward.
With the system fully activated, Chen Feng continuously sensed the goods on the ground.
He's like a radar now; no piece of goods can escape his eyes.
Chen Feng looked at an ordinary spot on the ground, where there was a piece of silver three meters deep.
Two meters further ahead, at a depth of 2.4 meters, there are two pieces of silver.
About ten meters ahead, at a depth of two and a half meters, there is a piece of gold.
Chen Feng knew the type of goods, but not their size. Although he had detected gold, he still couldn't dig it out directly.
Besides, it's only one piece, there's no need for that at all.
For now, the cargo density here is very low. Although there are goods every few steps, it's nothing compared to an uninhabited area.
That place is amazing; there are piles and piles of goods there.
But Xia Yingying's information couldn't be wrong; even if this place wasn't as dense as the no-man's-land, it couldn't possibly have this density.
Even so, it's not as good as inside a mining site.
Chen Feng took out his phone and examined the map carefully. He zoomed in with two fingers and kept dragging it back and forth.
"Could it be that I wandered off on my own?"
When he arrived, Chen Feng felt that if he stayed too close, he wouldn't be able to leave the mining area, so he went a little further away.
But now, looking at it, he realized he had gone too far, even beyond the boundary.
After looking around again, Chen Feng saw that the goods were still in the same condition. He turned around and walked back, preparing to drive towards the mine.
I must have gone too far for this to happen.
This time, he drove the car directly to the mine site, got out, and walked out, refusing to believe that it would still leak.
Sure enough, as soon as he got out of the car, he felt that there was more cargo around him.
There is a piece of silver about 40 centimeters to the left front.
There is a piece of gold about 1.2 meters to the right.
Go further ahead, about four or five meters, at a depth of fifty, there is a piece of silver.
Judging from the density of this cargo, this is definitely a mining site, so he kept walking outwards.
The density of goods was getting sparser and sparser. Chen Feng walked for a long time, and just when he was about to doubt himself, the system finally beeped.
He scanned the area closely and saw a small pile of goods in front of him, containing seven or eight items, two of which were gold and the rest were silver.
Although there weren't many goods, the scene finally brought a smile to Chen Feng's face.
This proves he found the right place.
Following the direction of the goods, Chen Feng continued walking forward, and within a few minutes he discovered another pile of goods.
This shipment contains a dozen or so items, including two gold pieces and the rest silver.
While walking, Chen Feng also spotted other goods, but they were all scattered, with only one or two here and there, and not worth paying attention to at all.
Continuing forward, about seven or eight minutes later, another pile of goods appeared in front of Chen Feng.
There were about twenty pieces of goods this time, six or seven of which were gold, which made Chen Feng exclaim "Wuhu!"
Chen Feng found a tree branch and forcefully stuck it into that spot, just in case, to make a mark, as this spot still had mining value.
And so, Chen Feng walked along the edge for the entire morning.
He found many piles of goods, large and small, with the largest containing more than thirty items and the smallest containing five or six.
For the time being, this definitely has mining value; the only problem is that he doesn't know whether the cargo here is large or small.
In terms of quantity alone, it does seem to be less than the uninhabited area, especially compared to the rich spot that Chen Feng found in the uninhabited area.
Chen Feng had been searching for that rich spot for several days, but he didn't really know how much longer he could keep searching.
Chen Feng looked at the map and realized that if he really dug along the edge, it would take him more than half a year to finish.
After all, this mining site is really huge; you can imagine how far it is to circle around it.
Moreover, they weren't just walking. Of course, walking along the circle would be faster, but they were digging for goods, so their speed wouldn't be too fast.
Chen Feng returned to his car, his stomach rumbling. He decided to go back to Qiuling City to find Lin Nian and rent an excavator that afternoon to give it a try.
Of course, around 8 a.m., Lin Nian had sent Chen Feng a WeChat message to ask him what was going on and why he hadn't arrived yet.
Chen Feng simply told him to wait, and Lin Nian didn't ask any further questions.
Chen Feng soon arrived at the hotel where Lin Nian was staying and went upstairs to knock on the door.
Who is it?
"Me?"
After this somewhat idiotic conversation, Lin Nian opened the door.
"Wow, bro, where have you been? Why are you only coming back so late?" Lin Nian asked curiously as he ushered Chen Feng into the house.
Lin Nian thought Chen Feng would come back after delivering the things yesterday, but when he waited until after 10 o'clock, Chen Feng told him that he wouldn't be coming back to stay, which surprised Lin Nian.
"You went to scout out the location. Have you eaten?" Chen Feng asked, sitting on the bed and casually picking up a cigarette.
"No, I've been waiting for you. If you hadn't come back soon, I was going to go downstairs to find somewhere to eat," Lin Nian said, sounding a little hungry.
"I'll rest for a few minutes, then we'll go out to eat. How was last night? Was it nice to have two beds all to yourself?" Chen Feng said with a smile.
"It's hard to say. I should have just booked a double room yesterday." Lin Nian chuckled. He had thought it would be nice to stay in a double room by himself.
It turned out there were two beds, but in the end, one person stayed in the other.
"Did anyone slip you a card last night?" Chen Feng asked curiously.
"You know what, there really is one." Lin Nian handed over a card.
"Wow, didn't you call to ask what's going on?" Chen Feng was surprised to find that there was actually a small card and took it.
"To be honest, when I saw the person printed on the card, I was really tempted, but my rationality told me that a top-tier female celebrity wouldn't hand out cards, so I gave up."
Lin Nian was both amused and exasperated, saying, "These people are really daring! You even dare to print the most popular female celebrity on your image. You've got some pretty wild ideas."
(A friend asked if I had a fan group, so I created one yesterday. It's on my homepage. Anyone who wants to discuss the plot can join. I sometimes talk in there and reply to people.)
