"Brother Haichao, thank you for the exchange voucher you gave me before..." The little girl had two sweet dimples on her face. She tilted her head and looked at Huang Haichao with a smile, and thanked him politely.
"What exchange vouchers? Those exchange vouchers were collected by Wubelly himself, what do they have to do with me? That dog's things can be given to whoever he wants. If you have anything to say, go find him and tell me everything." Huang Haichao raised his chin slightly and sneered. He put his hands in his pockets and walked to the front of the team with his long legs, leaving only a cool back of his head and disappeared.
“…”
The little girl stared at Huang Haichao's back and sighed like a little adult. If she couldn't understand the language of animals, she would have almost believed that what happened before had nothing to do with Huang Haichao.
Everyone was ridiculed by Huang Haichao, and the eyes looking at Xia Runrun suddenly plummeted. Nowadays, there are not many people who own mutant animals as pets, but it can't be said that there are very few either. Even in the Xinghai Shelter, a small place that can only accommodate more than 300 people, there were five people who owned mutant animals before.
They bring their cats and dogs in and out every day.
After three years, everyone has become accustomed to it. So many people stared at Xia Runrun just now simply because she was young, alone, and a stranger.
Without the pressure of the surrounding gazes, Xia Runrun instantly relaxed a lot.
The cafeteria staff was very quick and it was Xia Runruan's turn in just about 10 minutes. Xia Runruan looked at the size of the egg yolk and took out ten food coupons from the small bag at her waist.
One voucher can only be exchanged for enough food to feed an adult. Since the big orange cat is so big, it is obviously not suitable for it to eat too little.
The gray-brown kudzu root was quite large and looked a bit old, and the boiled carrots and wild vegetables were completely devoid of fat. Even though the chef did his best to make the carrots and wild vegetables look attractive, it couldn't whet Xia Ruanruan's appetite. No wonder so many people were cooking alone at the small stove next to the cafeteria.
Cats are pure carnivores, so it's no problem for them to eat some food to fill their stomachs, but they will become malnourished in the long run, so the yolk will have to go out and find food on its own in the future.
"Uncle... I only want one portion of carrot stewed with wild vegetables. Can you replace the rest with kudzu root or carrots without salt? Our cat can't eat salt." Xia Runrun stretched out her little hand and raised the exchange ticket high, motioning the chef to look at her.
"Oh, that's okay! We have a mutant animal set meal here. Just bring me five exchange coupons." Chef Gong glanced at Xia Ruanruan with a smile and said, "Welcome to our shelter, little one. When you first arrived, Boss Yang asked our cafeteria to prepare dinner for you and the three mutant pets. We don't have anything else in the shelter, but we do have food like kudzu root. Originally, Boss Yang said that this meal would be on his account, but since you brought the exchange coupons, that's fine. There are too many of these things, so I'll have Xiao Liu help you. Please go to the mutant pet dining area over there and wait for Xiao Liu."
The mutant pets in the shelter often need to patrol the entire shelter, or help to expel mutant animals, etc. After completing these tasks, the shelter will give a certain amount of exchange coupons according to the amount of labor. These exchange coupons can be exchanged for ordinary food. Sometimes meat appears in the cafeteria, and the exchange coupons can also be used to exchange it.
But generally speaking, if mutant animals and survivors want to eat meat, they still have to go out hunting and cook it themselves using the small stove in the cafeteria.
The mutant pet dining area is very spacious. It not only has a running water trough, but also several pet dining areas built with large stone blocks. A young man wearing a white chef's hat carried a large iron basin filled with stewed kudzu root and carrots and placed it directly in an oversized stone block slot.
The big iron basin was large and wide, and could hold three or four of her.
Xia Runrun took a quick look and told Egg Yolk 666 and Xiaobai to have a good dinner together. She then took the small plate, glanced around, and walked to a table nearby.
"What are you doing here?" Huang Haichao sat at the dining table with his arms and legs spread out, staring at Xia Runrun and speaking in a rough voice, as if to say, "I'm not someone to be trifled with, so don't come and get me." He looked ferocious and said, "I'm not someone to be trifled with, so don't come and get me."
Xia Runrun blinked slowly. If she didn't know that the man in front of her was just like a husky, whose appearance was intimidating, she might have been frightened by the man's fierce expression.
"Brother Haichao, I think you are so handsome!"
The little girl glanced at Huang Haichao with sparkling eyes, her voice soft and sticky. After saying this, she seemed to be shy and quickly lowered her head. Her movements were quick and cautious, just like a soft little squirrel poking its head out.
Huang Haichao: “…???!!!”
Huang Haichao felt like he'd received a 10,000-point critical hit. He'd never expected someone to actually call him handsome. He'd always considered himself handsome, especially before the catastrophe, when he'd occasionally dyed his hair a rainbow of colors, which made him incredibly cool. Unfortunately, aside from his friends, no one else could appreciate his handsomeness, constantly referring to him as "non-mainstream."
Cough cough cough...
Huang Haichao scratched his head, feeling a little embarrassed when he suddenly heard someone describe his handsomeness so accurately.
Huang Haichao frowned, trying hard to suppress the slight upward curve of his lips, and said fiercely: "Don't think that I will let you have dinner with me just because you praise my handsomeness...I am handsome, isn't it a fact? More than 300 people in the entire base know that I am handsome."
"Really?"
The little girl tilted her head, looked at Huang Haichao with regret and sadness, lowered her head, and muttered dejectedly: "I thought I was the only one who said that... But, but... Brother Haichao is really handsome... Even more handsome than my dad..."
Xia Runrun slowly recalled her father's double chin that had grown from happiness since his marriage, and his increasingly bald head from years of busy business. The little girl's tone became more sincere.
Although she didn't plan to build an animal city according to the instructions in the picture, since she was going to live in the shelter, she still had to build good relationships with the neighbors around her.
His wheat-colored skin unconsciously stained with a little red. Huang Haichao felt that this could not go on. As a good young man with upright values, how could he use his handsomeness to stun a little girl of three or four years old? Ahem, although he was indeed very handsome, he could not watch a little girl go astray. He was already 21 years old this year. There was no future for him and this little girl of three or four years old!
Huang Haichao coughed dryly twice, patted the little girl's head solemnly and said, "It's okay. Although I'm very handsome... you will meet someone more handsome than me in the future... No... the person you meet in the future will also be handsome, just a little bit less handsome than me."
"Since you want to eat here... then go ahead... the table is quite big anyway..." Afraid that the little girl would be extremely frustrated by being rejected by him, Huang Haichao mercifully picked up some frog meat from his bowl.
Two big frogs weighing seven or eight kilograms were cleaned up and filled two pots, one large and one small. The big one was stewed without any salt and then added to the pork belly, while the small one was stir-fried with soybean oil. The skin was golden and the meat was tender. It was fresh, fragrant and smooth when bitten, and the gravy was seeping out, which looked particularly tempting.
Although the stir-fried frog did not contain any onions, ginger, garlic, or chili peppers, it was golden and soft with oil. Compared with the carrot stewed with wild vegetables and the throat-sucking kudzu root on the plate, it was really like heaven and earth.
No wonder so many people want to find their own mutant animals.
Although Huang Haichao caught these two big frogs himself, if he wanted to catch these big frogs that hibernate by burying themselves deep underground, he would not be able to find them even if he searched for a week or two without the help of pork belly to sniff out the big frogs. Even if there were no husky to deter other mutant animals, Xia Runrun had no doubt that Huang Haichao would be robbed by other people and mutant animals if he walked on the road with the two big frogs.
From the Northwest District to the South District, braving the wind and snow, Xia Runrun saw many passers-by being chased and robbed by mutant animals.
"Eat it now, or it will get cold."
Huang Haichao picked up seven or eight pieces of chopped frog legs and gave them to Xia Ruanruan. Seeing that she was looking at him without picking up her chopsticks, he hurriedly urged her twice.
Ah...it's all his fault for being so handsome that he has nowhere to go. Look at how sad the girl was because of his rejection. She couldn't even eat.
Even he was so worried that he could hardly eat...
Burp...frog meat is so delicious.
