Chapter 176 A hearty breakfast



Gu Mian swiped to zoom in on the image, which contained: fresh meat wontons, egg pancakes, meat buns, and sesame balls.

It looks pretty good; it should have no problem winning an award for outstanding work.

"Um... I only brought a bowl of seafood porridge to participate, does that mean I have no chance?"

"Not necessarily, let me see your seafood porridge."

"...After uploading, I ate it."

"Incredible! They actually ate their own entry!"

"We haven't harvested any ingredients for many days, and this is all the good stuff we have. Now that we've cooked it all up, I'm really craving it..."

Xu Tiantian: "Good morning everyone! Today is another day full of energy!"

"Good morning, Sweetie! Did you sneak a snack again today? You seem even cuter now!"

Gu Xiaobei: "Hey buddy, are you the King of Oil? Did you drink a whole barrel of oil this morning? Why are you talking so oily?"

"What do you mean? What grudge do you have against me? Why are you attacking me?"

Gu Xiaobei: "We don't have any grudges, it's just that you're too slick."

"##¥&%$¥#%%$"

Gu Xiaobei: "Uh, are you so angry that you're typing gibberish?"

Seeing this, Gu Mian burst out laughing. So you know you're deliberately trying to annoy people...

I stayed curled up in bed for half an hour before finally getting up reluctantly.

Wash your face and brush your teeth, then apply some face cream to prevent your facial skin from drying out after prolonged exposure to air conditioning.

After completing the entire process, just as I was about to take out my breakfast, I heard a "beep" and the air conditioner stopped working again.

Gu Mian: ...

It drains the battery so fast!

[Intermediate Battery: Crafting materials required: 20 Plastic, 10 Mechanical Parts, 1 Silver Ingot. Craft now?]

"yes."

There were only enough mechanical parts to make one battery, so Gu Mian installed it in the air conditioner in the living room.

Anyway, there's a recliner in the living room, so I can just take a nap there.

The air conditioner started running again, and warm air gently blew onto my face.

Looking at the heavy snow outside the window, Gu Mian was puzzled: Today seems to be the sixteenth day of the snow season, why is it still snowing outside?

"It's so cold! We're out of fuel, I'm freezing!"

"Why is it still snowing? When will the snow season end?"

Zhou Zhou: "I don't know. I sent you some timber upstairs. Just hang in there a little longer!"

"Waaah, thank you so much, beautiful lady! May you have a peaceful and happy life!"

Wu Xiulian: "Hi Zhou Zhou, I'm out of fuel too. Could you give me some? I'll cut down some trees to pay you back after the winter season is over!"

Zhou Zhou: "Sorry, I don't have much wood left. Why don't you ask someone else?"

Wang Xuanyi: "Didn't Gu Mian just collect a bunch of timber a couple of days ago? Surely she hasn't used it all up so quickly, has she?"

Everyone's out of fuel now, can't we share some to help? We can't just watch others freeze to death!

Gu Mian: "What are those things growing on the sides of your head?"

Wang Xuanyi: "What do you mean?"

Gu Mian: "Can't you even understand what I'm saying? I really don't understand how your brain has survived this long."

Qin Huaizhou: "Pfft... How did you manage to survive until now? Those who know, know."

Wang Xuanyi pursed her lips resentfully: "I know you and Gu Mian are in cahoots! You're all birds of a feather!"

Qin Huaizhou gave a mocking "Oh," and said, "You're quite good at using fancy words."

Gu Xiaobei: "You hillbilly, you know my sister collected a bunch of timber, but do you know what she's going to do with it? You're such a show-off."

Gu Mian nodded in agreement, then picked up the last shumai.

She also felt that this person was a real nuisance, like a flea, always wanting to pop up and annoy her.

I shouldn't have let her off the hook before; she's just too good-natured.

The "Sumptuous Breakfast" event has ended. Players whose entries were selected as outstanding will receive a Mid-Level Blind Box and a Random Gourmet Gift Pack as rewards.

[The reward will be sent to your in-game mailbox shortly; please check your mailbox.]

Um?

They've already chosen them?

Gu Mian glanced at the time in confusion: 9:25.

Okay, it is indeed getting late.

The system's scoring will definitely be faster.

Take a bite of steamed egg custard and continue watching the chat channel as a side dish.

"They've already selected the best works? I'm so nervous, I don't know if mine will be chosen."

"The key is participation, the key is participation, and keep a calm mindset."

"I'm curious about what's in the food gift pack. I hope it's not just some snacks or barbecue."

"When will the reward be sent out? I'm getting impatient."

"Why not specify which players' works were rated as excellent? Is there some kind of behind-the-scenes manipulation?"

"Are you a member of the inside story group upstairs? You're really good at thinking nonsense."

[The reward has been sent to your email address. Please check your inbox promptly.]

After swallowing the rice noodle roll, Gu Mian opened her email to check.

[Congratulations! Your work has been selected as an outstanding entry in the "Hearty Breakfast" category. You have been awarded 1 Intermediate Blind Box and 1 Gourmet Gift Pack.]

[Talent used, reward: 2 Intermediate Blind Boxes, 2 Gourmet Gift Packs.]

Open the intermediate blind box to receive:

[Water Spirit Orb*2]

Open the food gift pack and receive

[Mixed Flavor Self-Heating Rice *1 (12 boxes)]

[Mixed Flavor Instant Noodles Packet*1 (60 packets)]

The above supplies will be doubled.

Gu Mian: ...

This is hard to review!

The food gift set actually contained a self-heating hot pot and instant noodles?!

That's such a sham...

Chat channel.

Xu Kun: "[Image] A bunch of braised food was found, now I won't be short of snacks."

Jiang Bai: "[Image] I have a bunch of ice creams in various flavors... I just opened one and took a bite, and it was so refreshing and invigorating..."

Gu Xiaobei: "Brother, your speech rhymes quite nicely."

Gu Mian: "[Image] A bunch of instant noodles, anyone want some? 10 points a pack."

"Yes, yes, yes! Boss, I want ten packs of the pickled cabbage flavor!"

"I like the spicy beef flavor, I'll take three packs, just to change things up occasionally."

Gu Mian: "If you want some, just send me a private message with your points, and then leave a message with the flavor and quantity you want. I'll process them one by one."

"Okay [well-behaved]."

"Hey Jiang Bai, do you sell ice cream? I haven't had ice cream in ages, I'd like to have one to try."

Jiang Bai: "Selling, 10 points each."

"OK, I've sent you a private message."

...

The 120 packs of instant noodles sold out in less than ten minutes, and the number of private messages placing orders kept increasing, so Gu Mian had to switch back to the chat channel:

"The instant noodles are sold out, so please don't transfer any more points to me. I'll return the points I've already transferred to you later."

"Ah... they're sold out so quickly! I was really craving some hot noodle soup!"

"Don't give me back my points, just send them to me when you have instant noodles!"

Gu Mian: "No, that's too much trouble. You can transfer it next time you sell it."

"...Okay o(╥﹏╥)o."

"My feet are freezing... When will this winter season end?!"
