Chapter 159: Chapter 159: The Emotionless Eating Machine

In the vast abandoned factory.

A moderately sized iron pot was set up, with dry branches as the best firewood. In no time, the water in the pot began to bubble.

No one would think burning firewood pollutes the air anymore.

Now, the air is the freshest it’s been in nearly a hundred years.

The resurgence of energy brought the world back to its most vibrant era.

Leng Yebai, expressionless, opened a packet of hot pot base and poured all the contents into the pot.

A rich aroma wafted from the pot, the spicy and savory smell tantalizing Bai Xiqin’s taste buds.

Hotpot, her favorite.

Bai Xiqin eagerly watched the bubbling spicy broth in the hotpot, her stomach also starting to growl.

Leng Yebai, like a seasoned chef, deftly placed some vegetable balls inside.

Fan Tangtang sat obediently to one side, hugging his legs, blinking as he watched the spicy broth in the hotpot.

The red hotpot soup looked a lot like blood!

Fan Tangtang swallowed a mouthful of saliva, he was hungry, but he held back.

He had no intention of eating the humans beside him.

On one side were his parents.

On the other was Brother Zhang’s friend.

Unless he went crazy, he’d never eat these people.

If he ate the person named Bai, he believed Brother Zhang would rip his head off.

The Fan Family wasn’t idle, quickly helping Leng Yebai open plastic bags and pass items.

“Let me, let me.”

Fan Liping, seeing Zhang Yiming wanting to grab bowls and chopsticks, quickly walked over, got them ready, and handed them to everyone.

As the boss of Fan Tangtang, he naturally couldn’t let him work!

The Fan Family still needed to cling to him!

Zhang Yiming glanced at the Fan Family, then let them be.

At that moment, he envied Fan Tangtang.

At least, Fan Tangtang’s family didn’t despise him for being a zombie; for Fan Tangtang, his family was willing to stay beside a zombie.

“Add more beef balls and fatty beef,” Bai Xiqin, her eyes sparkling, directed Leng Yebai by the iron pot, “Get a few more prawns, put in more vegetables, there are many of us, just dump in both boxes of fatty beef!”

The spicy and savory aroma tantalized her senses, Bai Xiqin eagerly watched the array of foods in the iron pot, holding bowl and chopsticks.

Just waiting for it to cook and eat.

The minutes before the hotpot is ready are the hardest to endure.

Hotpot, Bai Xiqin’s favorite.

Especially the spicy broth.

Simply irresistible.

Zhang Yiming’s eyes softened for a moment, holding bowl and chopsticks, he stood on Bai Xiqin’s other side.

For a moment, he felt he was human too.

Like a classmates’ reunion, he stood beside Xiao Niu, eating hotpot and chatting about future dreams.

Glug glug――

The various ingredients tumbled in the pot.

“It’s ready, it’s ready! Time to eat!”

Bai Xiqin’s eyes sparkled, staring intently at the large skimmer in Leng Yebai’s hand.

This skimmer could scoop out a whole lot of food accurately.

Anyway, she was not picky, she loved everything.

At this moment, giving her a big scoop would be perfect!

Leng Yebai affectionately glanced at Bai Xiqin, and looking at the adorable Bai Xiqin, couldn’t resist, reached out and gently patted her head.

Bai Xiqin slightly curved her dark eyes towards Leng Yebai, silently tapping her bowl with her chopsticks.

Ding dong, time to eat!

Leng Yebai indulged her with a smile, calmly scooping out a big lump with the skimmer.

The skimmer piled high with ingredients.

Fatty beef, balls, duck blood, enoki mushrooms…

“Wow――”

Bai Xiqin exclaimed, quickly raising her bowl.

This big scoop would definitely fill her bowl to the brim.

Leng Yebai, holding the skimmer full of food, slowly extended it towards Bai Xiqin.

Bai Xiqin raised her bowl again, moving it towards Leng Yebai’s skimmer.

Bai Xiqin’s dark eyes tightly watched the ingredients in the skimmer.

Watching as, right before her eyes, the full scoop of ingredients passed over her and poured steadily into Zhang Yiming’s bowl.

Bai Xiqin: ???

Then should I leave?

“Is it enough?”

Leng Yebai’s cool voice rang on Bai Xiqin’s right.

“A few more pieces of duck blood,” Zhang Yiming’s gentle voice sounded on Bai Xiqin’s left.

Leng Yebai said nothing more, the skimmer once again reaching into the pot, steadily scooping a ladle of duck blood.

The ladle filled with duck blood once again passed over Bai Xiqin, steadily pouring into Zhang Yiming’s bowl.

Even worse, the red soup from the skimmer dripped onto Bai Xiqin’s clothes.

The oily red soup exuded a mouth-watering aroma.

Bai Xiqin: …

“Thank you!”

Zhang Yiming responded calmly, then buried himself in eating.

Bai Xiqin shook her head slightly.

A boyfriend can’t compare to beef meatballs, she decided to rely on herself.

Bai Xiqin, with chopsticks in hand, reached into the pot.

One scoop, empty.

Leng Yebai’s evil two massive scoops had already finished the pot’s ingredients.

“Xiao Niu, what do you want to eat, I’ll scoop it for you.”

Leng Yebai affectionately looked at Bai Xiqin, ready with the skimmer to help Bai Xiqin scoop things.

“Anything.” Bai Xiqin calmly watched the skimmer.

Leng Yebai’s lips slightly curled, hmm, my Xiao Niu has a pretty good temper.

Give her anything, she eats it.

The large skimmer powerlessly scooped around in the pot several times, barely catching a piece of green vegetable for Bai Xiqin’s bowl.

Bai Xiqin looked at the pitiful lone piece of vegetable in her bowl, then looked at Zhang Yiming who was eating with his head down.

She felt there was something going on between Leng Yebai and Zhang Yiming, and she had evidence.

Leng Yebai touched his nose, feeling slightly guilty, smiled apologetically at the Fan Family and Xiao Niu, and hurriedly added ingredients.

Zhang Yiming pretended not to see, continued eating with his head down.

Leng Yebai took a look at Zhang Yiming who was eating with his head down, nodded slightly.

Luckily, he was clever; if Zhang Yiming joined everyone in eating hotpot.

Then it would be great, everyone would eat like crazy.

The large iron pot had ingredients boiling again, learning from last time, all the ingredients were tossed in at once.

To avoid not having enough to eat.

The Fan Family, bowls in hand, ate the hotpot; Fan Tangtang at the side hugged duck blood that hadn’t been cooked as a snack.

Bai Xiqin finally got to eat the meatballs she had been longing for, and her heart brightened considerably after being hurt by her boyfriend.

Boyfriends? They’re truly not as good as beef meatballs.

If someone traded a box of fatty beef for her boyfriend.

She would immediately agree—deal!

“Want some vegetables?”

Leng Yebai’s cool voice rang out.

Bai Xiqin nodded.

The large skimmer, holding half a scoop of vegetables, swiftly landed in Zhang Yiming’s bowl.

Bai Xiqin: …

Crunch crunch.

Zhang Yiming chewed the vegetables crisply, as if declaring war on Bai Xiqin.

Fan Tangtang obediently gnawed on duck blood, looking at Zhang Yiming with admiration.

The boss is indeed the boss, eats everything!

And really eats a lot!

Zhang Yiming, expressionless, chewed the various foods in his bowl, each time it was almost empty, Leng Yebai quickly filled it up for him.

He was simply an emotionless eating machine!

Bai Xiqin looked at her bowl, the food at the bottom, then at Zhang Yiming’s bowl.

Food piled up like a mountain, even after Zhang Yiming had been eating with his head down for so long, the food was still plentiful.

All thanks to her boyfriend.
