The consequence of fooling around is that you can't get up the next day.
Lin Xiaoxiao slept straight until noon, and when she woke up she felt a dazed feeling, as if she didn't know what the world was like.
"So comfortable."
I haven't had such a comfortable sleep in a long time.
Indeed, one cannot abstain from sex for too long.
I stretched, got out of bed, got dressed, and quickly washed up.
As soon as I finished doing all that, I felt a sharp hunger in my stomach, accompanied by rumbling sounds in my abdomen.
What should we eat?
Lin Xiaoxiao went into the kitchen and smelled a rich aroma; her eyes lit up instantly.
I almost forgot about the chicken that Qin Yushen stewed for her.
When you're hungry, food is right in front of you—what a blissful scenario!
I couldn't wait to scoop up a bowl. The chicken soup had a thin layer of oil on the surface, and the chicken meat had a natural pale yellow color, making it look incredibly appetizing.
Pick up a piece of chicken and put it in your mouth. The chicken is firm yet tender, and the aroma lingers in your mouth.
The chicken was stewed long enough that the skin had a slightly gelatinous texture, which, combined with the chicken meat, made it a perfect match.
Even though she eats chicken every one or two days, Lin Xiaoxiao still can't help but exclaim how delicious it is.
Thinking that I could go to the military base for roasted whole lamb that night, I didn't prepare any extra staple food. I ate two bowls of chicken, meat and soup, and after filling my stomach, I started eating melons as usual.
Melons are something you can eat all the time and always find something new.
Every day brings different pleasures, and Lin Xiaoxiao feels like she's going to fall into decadence.
If it weren't for the little one in her belly, she would definitely have gone out to do something worthwhile.
Guan Shan and his sister returned to Guangzhou for the Spring Festival. After Zhu Yuqi and Han Xiu reconciled, she left early and returned late every day, just like Han Xiu, busy as a bee, but no one knew what she was busy with.
After finishing the melon, I went into my space to organize supplies. The rate at which crystals were being consumed had increased significantly in the past few months.
Looking at the empty corner of the crystal pile, Lin Xiaoxiao turned her head away and stopped looking.
Looking at it again makes me even more heartbroken.
Thankfully, it wasn't a wasted effort, or she would have really cried.
After taking two crystals and absorbing their energy, there was no sign of breaking through the bottleneck of his superpower.
What's the difference between this and pouring a glass of water into the ocean?
Not a single drop of water splashed.
"Forget it, let's use it sparingly." Lin Xiaoxiao sighed, giving up on her plan to break through the bottleneck.
Her current level of superpowers might not be impressive in the post-apocalyptic world, but it's still considered unparalleled in this world.
After Qin Yushen's superpower broke through to level two, he no longer asked Lin Xiaoxiao for crystals to absorb. He obtained far more energy from nature than from absorbing crystals.
However, good weather like thunderstorms doesn't come every day, so his superpower has remained stable at level two for a long time.
The afternoon passed quickly. Lin Xiaoxiao calculated the time Qin Yushen would return, changed her clothes, packed some snacks in a bag, and prepared to eat them to pass the time.
"Is everything ready?" Qin Yushen took off his right glove, took her hand, and said, "Then let's go."
"Okay." Lin Xiaoxiao didn't forget to pick up her snack bag before leaving.
It takes about twenty minutes to drive to the military base. When they arrived, almost everyone was already there.
The cooks were already roasting lamb, with dozens of fires of various sizes lit up, each surrounded by a crowd of people.
The atmosphere was lively and full of festive spirit.
The soldiers and their families beamed with smiles, laughing and joking, while children of all ages ran around on the field.
Upon seeing this scene, Lin Xiaoxiao, who loves to join in the fun, exclaimed how amusing it was.
"Captain, sister-in-law, we're here!" Zhao Maomao, the conspicuous one, stood up and shouted loudly the moment Qin Yushen and Lin Xiaoxiao arrived.
The bonfire they were at was near the center. As Lin Xiaoxiao followed Qin Yushen over, she immediately spotted the big shots with two bars and four stars, one gold star, and two gold stars next to the bonfire with the fewest people.
Without even guessing, you could tell that the people surrounding this small fire were all leaders from the Beijing Military Region.
The most familiar one was naturally her second uncle from the Chu family, Chu Xiaonian.
Just as Qin Yushen was about to sit down with Lin Xiaoxiao, a guard ran over and saluted him, "Captain Qin, the commander wants to see you."
Lin Xiaoxiao looked over there, and just then, the people there were also looking at them. Chu Xiaonian even waved to her.
"good."
After walking over, Chu Xiaonian actually moved to the side, patted the seat next to him, and asked them to sit down, "Come on, sit here."
Qin Yushen and Lin Xiaoxiao were both startled. Was it a bit too high-profile to sit with these leaders?
As expected, everyone else's eyes were fixed on the two of them.
Curiosity, doubt, envy, admiration, longing...
Although the leaders told everyone not to be reserved and to relax and have fun at the bonfire party, everyone still kept a portion of their attention on the leaders while they were having fun.
Chu Xiaonian was no exception; his actions were seen by everyone.
"Commander, we..." Qin Yu thought the commanders had misunderstood that they didn't have any seats left, and was about to explain that his teammates had reserved them.
Before he could finish speaking, Chu Xiaonian interrupted him.
"Sit down, Commander Han has something to discuss with you."
Han Ming nodded with a smile.
Seeing this, Qin Yushen didn't care about being high-profile or not. He pulled over a small stool and let Lin Xiaoxiao sit down first, before he sat down himself.
Surrounded by the bonfire, where fragrant mutton was roasting, Lin Xiaoxiao didn't listen to a single word they said, her gaze fixed on the nearly roasted mutton.
The fragrance kept wafting into my nose, and I was almost overwhelmed by it.
"It's cooked outside." The cook in charge of grilling the meat deftly sliced off a large piece of lamb with a knife.
The first slice was given to Han Ming, but Han Ming looked at Lin Xiaoxiao and said to the cook with a smile, "Give it to the women first, we're not in a hurry."
Under everyone's watchful eyes, the cook handed the meat to Lin Xiaoxiao, saying, "Sister-in-law, eat it while it's hot."
"Thank you, you've worked hard." Lin Xiaoxiao, not afraid of the heat, took the food and thanked the cook.
He then looked at Han Ming and smiled, "Thank you, Chief. Then I won't stand on ceremony."
After saying that, he stuffed the meat into his mouth. The mutton was a perfect balance of lean and fat, not greasy at all, and the crispy outer layer made a slight crunching sound between his teeth, full of the aroma of charcoal.
"Delicious!" Lin Xiaoxiao gave the cook a thumbs up, praising him wholeheartedly. "Your cooking is really good."
The cook was delighted that his culinary skills were recognized, and he smiled so broadly that his gums were showing.
The mutton was in large pieces, too big for Lin Xiaoxiao to eat in one bite. After taking a bite, she stuffed the remaining half into Qin Yushen's mouth.
How could I forget my man when I have something so delicious?
Although the cooks would give some to him after serving the leaders, Lin Xiaoxiao wanted him to be the first to taste this delicious treat.
Qin Yushen, who was listening to the leaders chatting, was suddenly stuffed with a piece of meat and subconsciously ate it.
Turning his head, he saw his wife's silly and innocent eyes, and a hint of tenderness flashed in his eyes.
