DOOMSDAY ECSTASY CAVE (121)
121. SINCERE
It may be because Chu Youning's behavior was too considerate that although Wei Zixin didn't want to eat anything, she still lowered her head and took a mouthful. Then a mouthful of rich aroma instantly knocked her taste buds open. Wei Zixin didn't expect this seemingly simple porridge to be so delicious. Wei Zixin was stunned for a while, and took another mouthful uncontrollably. She didn't eat it fast, but ate mouthful after mouthfuls, and each mouthful of the hot porridge seemed to burn through her heart, and she ate up the whole bowl of porridge before she knew it.
"Another bowl." Wei Zixin said in a deep voice, handing over the bowl.
Chu Youning was embarrassed for a moment, "I just cooked this bowl." Seeing Wei Zixin looking at her, Chu Youning blushed. "The dried shrimps I found was only enough to make this bowl..."
Wei Zixin didn't say anything, but her mood was not as heavy as before.
The next day, Wei Zixin went to the trading market and found a packet of dried shrimps on a stall. Seeing her staring at the dried shrimps, the stall owner hurriedly went up to her and started to enthusiastically promote how good the dried shrimps was. The stall owner also said that yesterday a little brother had spent all the crystal cores on his body to buy a small handful of the dried shrimps.
"Little brother? Was it a dark and skinny little boy?"
"Right right right!" The stall owner nodded repeatedly.
Wei Zixin was silent for a moment, then she bought the rest of the dried shrimps and went back.
"You used all the crystal cores that you had on you to buy dried shrimps in order to make porridge for me?" Wei Zixin asked with a smile, but the smile didn't reach her eyes. Wei Zixin had climbed to this position today, would there be any less people flattering and sucking up to her? She can understand Chu Youning's stealthy behavior of flattering her, but... she was somewhat fed up of it.
When Chu Youning heard this, her face flushed, "No... I... made it for myself."
Wei Zixin couldn't help but be stunned when she heard it. Made it for herself? In other words, she spent all the money she had on her just to eat a bowl of dried shrimp porridge? This behavior was a bit ridiculous. But when she thought about it again, Chu Youning had ended up giving her the bowl of porridge...
Strangely enough, if Chu Youning had made this bowl of porridge with the purpose to please Wei Zixin, she would have probably been very disgusted. And even if she wasn't, she wouldn't have been moved. But if Chu Youning had spent all the crystal cores she had on her just to eat a bowl of dried shrimp porridge, but ended up giving it to Wei Zixin because she was in a bad mood... that would be a different feeling.
A warm current flowed into her heart. Wei Zixin was slightly stunned and didn't speak for a long time, but finally handed Chu Youning a large packet of dried shrimps.
Looking at the dried shrimps in her hand, Chu Youning's eyes seemed to sparkle with a little starlight. She was so excited that she turned around and entered the kitchen. This time, there was plenty of dried shrimps and everyone had a share of dried shrimp porridge. When Wei Zixin watched Chu Youning squinting like a satisfied kitten, savoring each mouthful of porridge, a soft light appeared in her eyes.
Although she had followed two powerful men, she was still just a child who didn't care less about anything for a mouthful of food ah.
Since then, Wei Zixin's attitude towards Chu Youning changed obviously. If the previous kindness towards her was more or less an act, and looking at her with pity was also a kind of charity from the superior, then now it was sincere and genuine.
Because she had cooked this time, the task of cooking naturally fell to Chu Youning, who had impressed the cold hearts of the guards with her excellent cooking skills. Well... not that impressed. It's just that the guards used to treat her as if she didn't exist at all, but now when they meet, they would give her a look as a greeting.
When they were about to enter the capital, Ye Chen finally caught up with them. He teleported to Chu Youning's room and took her to a dilapidated house. Chu Youning also saw his girlfriend again, whose name Chu Youning has already forgotten about. And the fact that she could forget it cleanly like that was enough to prove how much she didn't care about this girlfriend.
But in order to show Ye Chen, she still smiled and said hello to the girlfriend. But because the girlfriend smelled the human smell on Chu Youning, she ran over drooling and baring her teeth at her.
"Ho..." Ye Chen roared and bared his teeth, and his girlfriend became honest in an instant. But the fearless face only had absolute obedience to high-level zombies and was without any other emotions. A zombie who doesn't even have emotions...
