Chapter 46 Midnight Horror 2
Chen Kai, who was about to turn around and leave with his lunchbox in hand, seemed to have thought of something. After thinking for a long time, he looked back at the silent male educated youth dormitory, then at the hot pot soup in his hand, and could still smell the domineering spicy aroma.
Chen Kai gritted his teeth, and as Gu Zuozuo was about to close the door, he quickly said something and turned to leave, not giving Gu Zuozuo a chance to react.
Gu Zuozuo showed no reaction, calmly closed the door, turned around and went back to the dining table, taking the meat out of the system space again.
[Host, what does Chen Kai mean by his reminder?]
What does it mean to be careful of Duan Yuyang, Kan Lei, and Ma Zhaodi?
Gu Zuozuo stroked her chin, thought for a moment, and calmly replied:
"The literal meaning."
The system rolled its eyes in a way that Gu Zuozuo couldn't see. Did it look like an idiot?
"If I'm not mistaken, the person who came into my room should be Ma Zhaodi. I just don't know if she's here for Kan Lei or Duan Yuyang."
Couldn't it be because of her own actions?
Gu Zuozuo shook her head. She had no conflict of interest with Ma Zhaodi, but it was uncertain with the other two people.
Kan Lei disliked her because they occupied the house he had prepared for her. As for Duan Yuyang, she had a guess that he was probably after the so-called Gu family wealth.
What about Ma Zhaodi?
Gu Zuozuo opened her mouth and put the hot, freshly cooked spirit beef into it. The tender, fragrant, and melt-in-your-mouth sensation made her squint her eyes in enjoyment.
The meat of spirit beasts is tender and juicy, while the meat of mutated beasts is chewy and flavorful. The meat from the beastman world is simply delicious. Mmm, they're all tasty.
"Her? It's easier to understand. She probably wants to get close to one of those two. She wants to escape her mother's control, become a city dweller, and be someone superior to others."
However, her wish may soon come true, because her biological father has been arrested and it's only a matter of time before he implicates Ma Guihua. It just depends on whether their feelings for each other are genuine.
The dormitory for female educated youth.
Jiang Yiyan carefully placed a teacup of hot pot soup on the table. The other female educated youths gathered around, smelling the aroma and looking at the bright red and oily soup inside. They unconsciously swallowed their saliva. Hearing the same gulping sounds around them, they looked at each other and then laughed out of embarrassment.
"Yanzi, is this the butter hot pot you always talked about that you used to eat all the time?"
Jiang Yiyan took out her small pot, put it on the stove, poured in the hot pot broth, and added some water.
"Yes, but it's not as fragrant as this one, and it doesn't have as much oil and chili. I can't eat it all by myself. Take out some of your stock and cook it in the soup so we can all eat it together."
The others scratched their heads sheepishly, not wanting to take advantage of her. She was struggling to make ends meet on her own, and they felt it was unfair for her to eat her food.
Jiang Yiyan smiled, her eyes crinkling, and nudged the silent Li Fanghua beside her, her tone gentle yet firm.
"You won't take advantage of me. You've helped me a lot. I remember you made my first cotton-padded coat by collecting cotton for me. Otherwise, I would have frozen to death in my first winter. When I went to the countryside, I didn't take anything with me. When we didn't have enough food, you saved up some for me. I'm just a small person with limited abilities. I can't help you with other things, but if there's something new to eat, I'd like to share it with you so you can try it with me."
The most sentimental Zhu Xiaoxiao suddenly teared up, hugged Jiang Yiyan tightly, and choked up.
“You don’t owe us anything. You helped us mend clothes and make shoes, and you’ve already paid us back. Our little bit of help isn’t worth remembering for so long.”
Jiang Yiyan was stunned for a moment when she was hugged. She was both amused and touched by her words.
They will never know how desperate she felt when she was kicked out of her family and forced to go to the countryside with a broken heart.
It was this group of sisters from all over the country who, despite having no blood relation, pulled her out of the swamp, gave her renewed hope, and gave her the courage to live on.
