Taking in their reactions, Mo Shuwan was both amused and exasperated. "Are you all really that serious?"
Unexpectedly, Liu Dongcheng was the first to answer, saying, "As for it, every time my wife asks me this kind of question, I feel like I'm on a mission."
"...I, I don't have a girlfriend yet." Upon discovering that he was actually a single dog, Chen Jiaxu was on the verge of tears. "It's a good thing Liu Dongcheng's wife isn't here, otherwise I would be drowning in your dog food every day."
Mo Shuwan looked on in surprise, "When did we start showing off our love?"
As soon as she finished speaking, a bowl of cooked beef was handed to her. Wen Zuo asked from the side, "Would you like some dipping sauce?"
"Yes." Mo Shuwan nodded quickly, and when she looked at Chen Jiaxu again, she found that he was desperately squeezing out tears, really squeezing them out, and he was even squeezing them out with an onion. "...I didn't expect you to have this hobby."
Chen Jiaxu looked at Mo Shuwan with a wry smile, "Captain, you two were just showing off your love, didn't you know?"
"Is this what you call showing off your love?"
Chen Jiaxu nodded.
Mo Shuwan smiled. She really hadn't realized it, and for her and Wen Zuo, that was their normal way of getting along.
Another single guy hung his head and silently picked up food, finishing all the dishes they had redeemed without saying a word. By the time Liu Dongcheng noticed, he had already redeemed quite a few new ones. Seeing that they still needed to cook for a while before they could eat, Yun Chen moved to Wen Zuo and Mo Shuwan's side, holding his chopsticks and watching them.
"...Eat."
Yun Chen immediately reached into the pot with his chopsticks to eat, which was fine in itself, but as he ate, Chen Jiaxu picked up a black crystal from the pot. He stared at the crystal between his chopsticks, then turned to look at Yun Chen, "This can't be..."
Perhaps sensing Chen Jiaxu's gaze, Yun Chen, who was eating, turned his head and his eyes were immediately drawn to the crystal he was holding with his chopsticks. He then stared at Chen Jiaxu with an extremely angry look, as if accusing him of daring to eat what he had cooked.
Chen Jiaxu quickly tossed the crystal he had been holding between his chopsticks to Yun Chenjing, saying, "I had no intention of eating your crystal!!!"
After saying that, he couldn't help but curse under his breath, "Damn it, when did you cook this stuff in there?!"
Yun Chen was chewing on black crystals, ignoring Chen Jiaxu's words, and then calmly and naturally took out a handful of crystals to throw into the pot in front of him.
"Wait!" Wen Zuo quickly caught the crystal that Yun Chen had thrown down with the pot lid. "I'll give you a new one. You can use the new one to cook. This pot can only be used to cook vegetables and meat."
"All right."
Wen Zuo exchanged a new pot for Yun Chen to boil crystals. Still worried, Wen Zuo used a ladle to scoop the pot with a spoon. Fortunately, he didn't find any crystals, so he was relieved.
"How many points did you all use this time?"
Chen Jiaxu said, "I haven't used it yet. I'm currently debating whether to switch to a different manual. If I continue to develop the current manual, it will only increase external power, while my own strength will remain extremely weak."
Have you checked on the forums?
"Sigh, I've checked. The manual I'm using now has passengers who were very successful in the end, but they were all very powerful to begin with. As for me, I'm very weak. I'm afraid that if I were to fall naked in front of the enemy, I wouldn't have any ability to fight back."
Chen Jiaxu's concerns were not unfounded. He was timid and dared not take any risks. He had arranged for the powerful elementals to protect him. If one day he was unable to summon the elementals and his own strength was not strong, he would indeed be in a very dangerous situation.
"But even if you change the manual now, there's no guarantee that the other manual will be better than the one you're using now."
Chen Jiaxu looked at Liu Dongcheng and hesitated before saying, "I want to exchange for the same secret manual with you. I currently have five million points, which should... make me stronger, right?"
Mo Shuwan frowned and seriously considered the feasibility of Chen Jiaxu exchanging secret manuals. "The secret manuals we are currently using are basically obtained by accumulating points. The initial consumption is not small. You seem to have a lot of points now, but we will soon participate in the bus selection competition. We don't know the content of the competition yet. Are you going to use up all your points?"
Chen Jiaxu immediately looked miserable. "So this is what's troubling me. My own strength is really too weak right now."
"Then you might as well exchange for some items that can temporarily enhance your strength and improve the manual you are currently using. Since there is a manual available for passengers to choose from, it is impossible for it to simply increase external strength."
Mo Shuwan nodded; Wen Zuo had already said everything she wanted to say.
Chen Jiaxu sighed, "I'll take another look."
"Hmm." Mo Shuwan looked at Yun Chenjing, who was still cooking crystals, "And you, do you have any questions now?"
Yun Chen shook his head.
Mo Shuwan didn't know whether he was clear-headed or not. Seeing him shake his head, she could only sigh softly, "If there's anything you don't understand, you must ask."
"good."
After finishing their hotpot, everyone parted ways and returned to their rooms to continue studying the secret manual.
Mo Shuwan had just sat down on the ground when she received a notification from Wen Zuo requesting to come inside. She casually clicked "accept" and continued browsing the forum posts, hoping to find some more information about the competition.
"I've exchanged a lot of medicinal herbs, I'm going to the restroom now."
"good."
After Wen Zuo went into the bathroom for a while, Mo Shuwan finally took her attention away from her phone and got up to walk towards the bathroom. Wen Zuo had been waiting for her these past few days and had not taken any of the medicinal herbs required by the secret manual.
