Chapter 172 Feast



Not only Li Xiao smelled the fragrance, but Tian Tian and Qiu Fengyu also smelled it.

The smell is so strong! The room is only so big, so the smell is even more intense.

None of them were interested in watching the movie anymore, and Li Xiao even accidentally caught Tian Tian secretly swallowing her saliva.

Ah, it's not just me who's affected, hmm, I'm balanced now.

Li Xiao chuckled inwardly. It's not shameful to crave delicious food. She hadn't had such fragrant food in a long time. What's wrong with craving it a little?

The sound of the movie couldn't drown out the sizzling of oil in the pan, and the spicy and fragrant aroma wafted into the living room. At that moment, Tian Tian couldn't help but swallow.

Gurgle————

Li Xiao and Qiu Fengyu immediately looked toward the source of the sound, and Tian Tian also felt embarrassed at this moment.

A blush crept onto her cheeks, and she looked shy and flustered.

Pfft—

Li Xiao couldn't help but laugh out loud.

Tian Tian felt even more embarrassed. She had been craving something and someone had overheard her. There was nothing more shameful than this.

Even Qiu Fengyu's lips curved into a smile, showing that she was in a good mood.

Tian Tian was annoyed by the laughter, so she decided to just give up and stick to her old argument—as long as I don't feel embarrassed, then I'm not the one who's embarrassed.

Li Xiao knew that Tian Tian was embarrassed and angry, so she stopped teasing her and lowered her head to pretend to watch a movie, avoiding looking at Tian Tian's face.

With the situation eased, Tian Tian was no longer embarrassed. Her eyes darted around, and seeing that Li Xiao and Qiu Fengyu were watching a movie, she breathed a sigh of relief.

I'm not as focused on watching movies as I used to be; I'm always distracted by what delicious food the kitchen is making right now.

However, they didn't have to wait long before the kitchen brought out several large basins.

Li Xiao and the others quickly got up and rushed to the table.

Tian Tian looked at Li Xiao, who was running even faster than her, and turned to look at Li Xiao with great confusion.

Li Xiao just smiled and didn't say anything. At this moment, Tian Tian seemed to understand something, but Li Xiao had already run into the kitchen and disappeared from sight.

Everyone had disappeared, and her attention quickly shifted to the table.

A large stainless steel basin has already been set out, its surface glistening with red oil and topped with chili peppers, while tender white fish slices are faintly visible in the red oily broth...

It looks very appetizing, although it's just a dead, frozen fish and doesn't taste as good as fresh, live fish.

But at this point, can we still care about so much? No.

Having fish to eat is good enough; if you think too much, you won't need to eat anything at all.

The bone and radish soup is still simmering, the stir-fried eggplant is ready, and there's also spicy and sour lotus root cubes, all served in large bowls, with very generous portions.

"The food is here!" Shao Jie brought out the rice cooker and placed it on the table.

Xiao Peng brought the last of the bone broth to the table, wiped his hands on his apron, and then took it off.

"Come and eat, everyone. The food today is pretty good." As soon as Yu Yanbin said this, they all sat down without any hesitation.

"Xiaoxiao, do you have any wine?" At this moment, Cheng Shaolin wanted to have a drink. He had nothing to do tomorrow, so a little bit wouldn't hurt.

He actually knew perfectly well that there was alcohol in Li Xiao's space, but asking him would have prevented anyone from suspecting that he knew in advance.

Li Xiao was quick to answer, "Yes, which kind?"

"Whatever."

Li Xiao took out a bottle of baijiu (Chinese liquor) and several bottles of beer, which were still ice-cold.

"Wow, it's still ice cold." Shao Jie picked up a bottle with great delight and looked at Yu Yanbin.

Yu Yanbin knew without a doubt that they were waiting for him to make a beer opener.

Yu Yanbin leaned back in his chair, not waiting for anyone. He raised his right hand, and the metal inside changed shape according to his thoughts.

Soon, a golden screwdriver was formed.

Shao Jie stood up, grabbed a bottle opener, and opened all the beer bottles.

This wine was something Li Xiao had casually tossed into the spatial freezers before, and each freezer was already crammed full. She just wanted to clear some space so she could put other things in.

There are eight large freezers in the space, neatly arranged. They are already full of things, some of which are ice cream that was bought earlier, filling two large freezers.

Actually, she had even more stockpiled, including boxes and cartons that were still unopened, and she had bought quite a few of all sorts of flavors.

Although it looks like a lot, if it consumes a large number of people, it won't last more than a few days.

This is why Cheng Shaolin forbade her to take it out and share it with everyone.

He was also worried that Li Xiao wouldn't have much left, and that she would want to eat but wouldn't have anything to eat.

You don't necessarily have to share everything; there's nothing wrong with keeping some for yourself.

There are also two freezers filled with frozen seafood, such as lobsters, crabs, and various kinds of fish.

The remaining four freezers contain frozen meat, chicken, duck, and bones, respectively.

Everything was full, which was also why Li Xiao had some clarity.

If some of these aren't cleared out here, then we won't be able to put the rest in.

As the livestock and fish and shrimp in the ponds grow bigger and more numerous, if they are not cleared out soon, there will be nowhere for them to reproduce.

Seeing so many delicious foods that she couldn't eat, Li Xiao felt a real headache coming on.

I have to worry about these things every day when I go online. It's really something else.

At first, I thought the space was big enough, but even after it was expanded a lot, it still couldn't withstand Li Xiao's crazy stuffing inside.

Even the biggest ones feel too small if you cram too much stuff in them.

Fortunately, Li Xiao goes in to tidy up every day, trying to stack the items high and neatly to reduce wasted space.

It's enough for now, but it looks very dense, even Li Xiao herself feels a little dizzy looking at it.
