The entire camp was soon filled with a cacophony of snoring, rising and falling in waves.
Even Xu Lina, completely disregarding her image, had fallen asleep on the second floor of Bus Number Six.
Although she hadn't exerted much effort in the Sea of Chaotic Graves, the prolonged tension and vigilance had still left this woman utterly exhausted.
Chen Ye originally thought he would be able to get a good night's sleep this ti.
But as it turned out, he woke up automatically after just two hours.
After that, he simply couldn't fall back asleep.
The side effects of the Blood Moon Lord were still having a persistent effect on him.
When he woke up, he found that Sun Xixi had already entered a ditative state.
The ti had already reached seven in the evening.
The entire camp was quieter than it had ever been before.
With no other choice, Chen Ye had to return to his own vehicle and dig out the cooking utensils he hadn't used in a long ti.
He also plugged in the rice cooker he had found during the previous Anomaly Tides.
When he had upgraded the Monster Pickup Truck's power system earlier, the System had reserved an outdoor power outlet for the truck.
Even as a Superhuman, one still needed to eat every day.
At most, they had better physical endurance than ordinary people and could withstand hunger a little longer.
But at their core, they were still human.
He estimated about one cup of rice, poured in so water, and then threw in so chopped potatoes and shredded lettuce...
After a mont of thought, Chen Ye added a bit of salt and a few drops of sesa oil...
That shouldn't be too bad, right...
And just like that, Chen Ye's Random Stew made its coback, making all the culinary gods out there tremble in fear!
Chen Ye jumped onto a nearby mound of dirt and lay down, his hands pillowed behind his head as he gazed at the sparse stars in the sky.
In the Sea of Chaotic Graves, it had been impossible to distinguish day from night.
As for stars, those were completely nonexistent.
He hadn't expected that after leaving the Sea of Chaotic Graves, there would actually be stars in the sky.
It seed like everything was moving in a positive direction.
Perhaps in a few days, the blood moon would reappear.
In the past, he had always thought the blood moon was too eerie, but now he found himself actually missing it.
Maybe, in a few days, the Eternal Night would disappear.
The sun and blood moon would reappear in the sky.
By then, his cultivation speed would increase by another significant margin.
There was also the Resentnt Dragon Scale that still needed to be appraised.
And the severed hand wrapped around the crowd...
The knife Ding Shen had given him...
The person suited for this knife still hadn't appeared...
Pfft, pfft, pfft...
I am the one most suited for this knife.
What's given to is mine...
As for whether it's suitable, that's the knife's problem, not mine.
Then there was the issue of the Monster Pickup Truck's battery reserve...
To accomplish all of this, he needed Slaughter Points.
Unfortunately, his Slaughter Points were currently completely depleted...
"Ding..."
The rice cooker's indicator chid softly.
Chen Ye jolted upright from the dirt mound.
He opened the rice cooker.
A puff of hot steam rose up.
The fragrance of rice was mixed with a strange odor.
It wasn't a foul sll, but it was definitely not appetizing.
"Wait, are you really eating this for dinner tonight?"
A pleasant voice sounded beside his ear.
Chen Ye turned his head and saw Sun Xixi looking at him with a peculiar expression, her eyes filled with disdain...
The target of her disdain seed to be the pot of rice he had just made.
Chen Ye wasn't about to indulge this incredibly beautiful girl.
His blood-red eyes rolled dramatically in a deliberate glare.
Then he picked up the bowl and started eating.
But the mont he took a bite, his hand paused slightly.
Sun Xixi still couldn't get used to this guy's blunt personality, silently cursing him in her heart.
Then she moved closer and said, "I haven't eaten either!"
Chen Ye was quite generous: "I'll treat you!"
With that, Chen Ye pushed the bowl of dinner he had barely touched into Sun Xixi's hands.
He even ticulously picked out the spot where he had eaten from.
Sun Xixi stared at the bowl in front of her.
Although the taste of this rice might not be good.
No, it wasn't a matter of it not being good.
It was definitely a matter of it being bad.
But thinking that this was Chen Ye's own al that he had given to her, Sun Xixi still stiffly accepted it, saying sowhat awkwardly, "Thank you..."
"It's fine, go ahead and eat..."
This al was the most complicated one Sun Xixi had eaten since the apocalypse began.
Although it was very unappetizing, Sun Xixi still forced herself to eat more than half of it.
Originally, Sun Xixi insisted on sharing it with Chen Ye.
Don't misunderstand; it wasn't because Sun Xixi had any romantic notions.
It was simply because Chen Ye had only made this one bowl.
If she ate it all, he would probably have nothing to eat.
As a girl, and with the good upbringing she had received, Sun Xixi still knew how to share.
But Chen Ye refused without hesitation, very decisively and very firmly!
And the expression on his face was extrely serious.
In the end, adhering to the principle of not wasting food, Sun Xixi finished the entire large bowl of terrible Chen Ye's Random Stew.
After eating, Sun Xixi felt quite unwell.
If it were before the apocalypse, she wouldn't have touched this level of cooking even if soone paid her.
But now...
In the apocalypse, wasting food was asking for divine punishnt.
So many people would sell anything for just a single bite to eat!
Sun Xixi said a quick goodbye and prepared to go back to rest.
"Thanks for the dinner. You keep watch for a bit; I'm going to rest now..."
Sun Xixi swayed as she headed back toward the vehicle.
Chen Ye waved his hand dismissively, like he was shooing away a beggar.
Sun Xixi gritted her teeth and cursed Chen Ye once more in her heart.
Just then, Sun Xixi saw Chen Ye waving at soone in a certain direction.
"Hey... you, co here!"
Sun Xixi followed the direction of Chen Ye's wave.
She saw a tall and stunning figure standing there.
That seed to be... Xu Lina's younger cousin?
Lai Baiwei had slept in the vehicle for a long ti, so she had woken up relatively early.
The mont she got off the vehicle, she saw Chen Ye waving at her.
Lai Baiwei's heart lit up with a hint of joy. She tidied her hair and walked over.
"Mr. Chen, you wanted to see ?"
Chen Ye gave Lai Baiwei's appearance only a single glance, and just a glance at that.
It was the kind of look one might give a beautiful flower.
Purely admiration, nothing more.
Then Chen Ye asked bluntly, "Do you know how to cook?"
Lai Baiwei nodded quickly. "Yes, Mr. Chen, I do!"
As a forr flight attendant, while Lai Baiwei's cooking couldn't compare to a professional chef, she had enjoyed experinting with gourt food at ho when she wasn't working.
"Good. Then you cook for . You can eat dinner with today. If you need anything, go find it in the vehicle!"
"You... why didn't you eat just now?"
Sun Xixi's surprised voice ca from behind.
Chen Ye turned around. "You're still here?"
Sun Xixi's brow darkened.
Chen Ye explained, "What I made earlier was terrible! It felt wasteful to throw it away, and since you hadn't eaten, I gave it to you..."
"Luckily, you didn't mind!!!"
As Chen Ye spoke, his voice gradually grew quieter...
Didn't mind?
I minded very much, okay.
I just didn't want to waste food!!!
That was it!!!
Sun Xixi's face darkened. "And how did you know she could cook?"
Chen Ye spread his hands. "I refuse to believe that anyone can cook worse than !"
"Chen Ye, DIE!!!~~~"
