CH 56
Chapter 56 - What? Girlfriend? (3)
Dinner that night was very good.
The problem of Zhou Cang had been solved. Everyone was relieved. With the additional supplies for the warehouse and cold storage, Dr. Su had decided they would eat something good tonight.
There was some meat about to expire in the cold storage, so it was taken out to eat.
There was a chef in the group. The chef led a few people to the third floor to cook Dongpo pork elbows and steam pot chicken. The pork knuckles and chicken were sliced and distributed. Unlike the cup instant noodle, these dishes truly had scents that would waft far and wide.
Dr. Su pondered aloud, "The power has been cut off. There's still so much meat in the cold storage. I don't know how long it can last."
Bei Nuan was eating a pork elbow. She mumbled with her mouth full, "You can smoke them…"
When it came to eating, Du Ruo was definitely her confidant. He helped her say, "She's right. It can be made into cured pork. You can also cure the chickens, make sausages, and whatnot. Super delicious."
Dr. Su nodded. "Yes, there's enough salt and seasoning in the supermarket. We can marinate the meat and air dry them on the roof."
"That's right." The chef next to him said, "If you go back 30 or 40 years, who had a fridge? If you go back further in time, haven't people lived well without electricity for thousands of years?"
Bei Nuan said, "Tear down wide smoke." (Vegetables can be pickled too.)
(T/N: To show that Bei Nuan isn't speaking clearly, the author is using different tones with some of the letters off. Chāi yě kuò yǐ yān (pinyin of what Bei Nuan says) which translates into tear down wide smoke instead of cài yě kěyǐ yān (what she means to say) which translates into vegetables can be pickled too.)
Dr. Su understood what she meant this time. "Right, there are a lot of fresh vegetables that can be pickled. Even if rescue takes a while to come, we can last a long time."
Bei Nuan thought; the author of this novel was a fan club member of the zombie party. Rescue definitely wouldn't come. You guys better rely on yourselves.
"There's meat. Too bad there's not much rice," someone said.
Bei Nuan instinctively glanced at the rice in her pocket space. As soon as she raised her head, she saw Lu Xingchi's beautiful brows slightly pressing down. His gaze was threatening. He was worried that she would impulsively donate all of the rice.
Bei Nuan obediently stayed silent, but as she ate the last part of the pork elbow, she wondered how much her Holy Mother value would increase if she donated the rice.
Bei Nuan finished eating the meat in her bowl and looked around.
Du Ruo was holding a bowl of rice. There was still a perfect pork elbow on the paper plate in front of him. There were alternating layers of fat and meat with a glossy sauce layer. It was very cute and looked like it had the right amount of chewiness.
Bei Nuan stretched out her chopsticks and took the last piece.
Du Ruo: "..."
"Can't you be a bit more magnanimous?" Bei Nuan rushed to say. The Holy Mother's magnanimous task finally went to 4 out of 5 completed.
"Am I not?" Du Ruo was bewildered. "If you want to eat it, I'll give it to you. That's fine."
There was suddenly a paper plate in front of Bei Nuan. There were two beautiful pieces of Dongpo pork elbows and a fat chicken leg.
Lu Xingchi pushed the plate to Bei Nuan and lightly said, "I haven't touched it."
Why was the big boss suddenly so good to her? Could it be that the lofty boss's favorability value had increased because of today's kiss? That was useless though. The big boss still resolutely wouldn't bring her along.
Bei Nuan sighed, picked up a piece of elbow meat, and snuck a glance at Lu Xingchi.
Lu Xingchi was expressionless. His sitting posture was dignified, and he ate very elegantly. It was as if this place was a three-star Michelin restaurant instead of a supermarket.
Bei Nuan carefully examined his expression that looked as immovable as a mountain. Her favorability value probably hadn't increased with him. He was probably sympathizing with the pitiful her that he was going to abandon tomorrow.
The sun had set, and there were limited candles and batteries. They couldn't be wasted. Everyone went to sleep early like birds.
Bei Nuan had been allocated a thin blanket. She wrapped herself in it and lied on the ground.
