Chapter 182: Chapter 182: Appetite Almost Rivals Xiao Niu’s

Bai Xiqin looked up at the sun, it was already starting to set in the west, and they hadn’t eaten yet!

“Let’s eat first now!” Bai Xiqin rubbed her deflated stomach.

Her stomach grumbled loudly.

“How about we have a barbecue today?”

Bai Yifan’s eyes lit up.

Although his big sister was a bit of a brute, her cooking was super amazing, especially her barbecues, they were exceptional.

She could cook the cute rabbits until they were crispy on the outside and tender on the inside, sizzling with oil.

Then brush on a layer of honey water mixed with Spiritual Spring Water.

Gosh, even turning into a howling zombie would be worth it.

“We’re not having barbecue today, we’re having something delicious!” Bai Xiqin smiled mysteriously at Bai Yifan.

“What?” Bai Yifan’s eyes brightened even more.

Whatever his big sister said was delicious was bound to be really delicious.

Leng Yebai said nothing, his cold eyes slightly bending.

Being able to eat things Xiao Niu made by hand, no matter what it was, was this world’s gift to him.

Bai Xiqin didn’t say what it was, she just climbed into the car and reclined the seat to make a makeshift table.

Leng Yebai sat silently next to Bai Xiqin, his long fingers tapping the seat rhythmically.

It was clear he was quite excited inside.

“Sis, hurry up and bring it out! I’m starving!”

After Bai Yifan sat down, he urged Bai Xiqin to bring out today’s lunch.

Whatever his sister prepared would definitely be the most delicious.

Under the gaze of Bai Yifan and Leng Yebai, Bai Xiqin’s slender hand pulled out a dark round cake from the space.

The cake emitted a sweet and rich aroma.

It was a molten chocolate cake.

Leng Yebai’s long fingers paused slightly and he turned his head to look out the window.

On the road outside, the exploding ant eggs were still there.

Black liquid splattered on the ground, with a black larva soaking inside.

Leng Yebai stiffly turned his neck back, no longer looking at the exploding ant eggs on the ground.

Bai Xiqin rubbed her stomach, she was hungry the moment she saw the exploding ant eggs.

Remembering they had lots of delicious prepared food and desserts stored in their space, Bai Xiqin immediately thought of the molten chocolate cake.

Bai Xiqin took out a knife meant for cutting cakes and sliced a cross on it.

The cake was divided into four equal parts.

As the knife sliced through, the black chocolate flowed out immediately, just like the black liquid outside.

“Dig in!”

Bai Xiqin took out three plates, each with a portion, and pushed them towards Bai Yifan and Leng Yebai.

Bai Yifan gulped and said weakly, “Sis, I’m on a diet today, don’t want anything sweet. Could you check if grandpa’s braised pork hocks are gone, and give me one, please?”

The heap of black chocolate liquid in front of him, despite its chocolate fragrance, didn’t stir his appetite at all.

In the apocalypse, wasting food was shameful.

Neither should picky eating be a thing.

But he felt that the chocolate in front of him could rival those exploding ant eggs.

Even surpass them.

“Alright then!” Bai Xiqin calmly moved the cake in front of Bai Yifan to her side, gently tapped with her finger, and a plate of braised pork hocks appeared in front of Bai Yifan.

Bai Yifan’s eyes lit up, and he started gnawing on the pork hocks.

Grandpa’s braised pork hocks were tender and chewy without being greasy.

Every bite full of collagen.

So delicious!

“Sis, how many of grandpa’s braised hocks are left?” Bai Yifan muttered with his mouth full.

If there were more, he could eat another one.

He finally understood the joy of gnawing on pork hocks.

Every so often, Bai Zhengxuan would patiently spend a whole day braising a pot of hocks.

Food in space wouldn’t spoil, and any day he wanted it, Bai Zhengxuan would gnaw on one.

With the increase of his superpower, Bai Zhengxuan’s old-age ailments had vanished.

“This is the last one,” Bai Xiqin replied.

Bai Yifan: …

To a foodie, the last bite and the last piece are always the tastiest.

Bai Yifan looked at the half-eaten pork hock and softly asked, “If I put this hock back, would grandpa possibly not notice?”

“What do you think?” Bai Xiqin replied with a counter-question.

Bai Yifan bowed his head, took a fierce bite of the braised hock, and chewed hard.

Oh well.

Eat, eat until satisfied.

“Why aren’t you eating your cake?”

Bai Xiqin took a bite of the molten chocolate cake.

“I’m also dieting today, and I want something light. Xiao Niu, pass me some marinated bamboo shoots!” Leng Yebai glanced at the black liquid in front of him, his lips twitching slightly.

Bai Xiqin glanced Leng Yebai up and down, nodded calmly, “You have put on a bit of weight.”

Leng Yebai’s face slightly stiffened, his long fingers quietly pressing his waist, feeling a soft circle of flesh.

Even though his eight pack was still there, he was feeling a sense of crisis.

Leng Yebai’s cool face frowned deeply.

Where did things go wrong?

He remembered not eating that much, right?

How did he gain weight?

“How could you not get fat! Brother Leng eats so much every day.” Bai Yifan glanced at Leng Yebai while gnawing on his pork hock, “Your appetite is almost as big as my sister’s!”

Hearing Bai Yifan’s words, Leng Yebai fell into deep thought.

The meals post-apocalypse were indeed better than when he lived alone.

Unknowingly, he had eaten so much delicious food.

And, his appetite almost matched Xiao Niu’s.

So―― he really had eaten too much.

“It really was too much. I’ll eat less in the future.” Leng Yebai patted the soft flesh, his face slightly serious.

Winning a woman’s heart meant capturing her eyes too.

He couldn’t become old and yellowed, and have Xiao Niu reject him.

Bai Xiqin looked at Bai Yifan and Leng Yebai with a chilly gaze, her lips curling dangerously, “What were you just saying? The wind is too strong, I couldn’t hear.”

“Nothing, nothing, I was just kidding.” Bai Yifan buried his head in the pork hock, mumbling, “I wasn’t talking about you; I said Brother Leng eats the most.”

Leng Yebai frowned furrowed, seriously correcting, “Can’t be! I remember eating less than Xiao Niu.”

After speaking, Leng Yebai pinched the soft flesh, his eyes glancing towards Bai Xiqin’s waist.

The one with more meat eats more.

The long fingers were slightly restless, ready to raise a hand to uncover the truth.

Bai Yifan bowed his head, chewing furiously on the pork hock, pretending not to hear Leng Yebai’s words.

Leng Yebai could take a beating; he couldn’t.

From his years of living with his sister, he knew saying his big sister was fat had more than a ninety percent chance of resulting in death.

“Xiao Bai Bai~” Bai Xiqin looked at Leng Yebai with smiling eyes, her voice gentle.

A gentleness tinged with danger.

“Xiao Qunqun~” Leng Yebai looked at Bai Xiqin indulgently, returning the call.

Slightly excited, completely unaware of the impending danger.

He thought Xiao Niu was making eyes at him.

“Do you remember forty-three days ago?” Bai Xiqin menacingly cracked her knuckles.

Leng Yebai thought seriously for a moment and shook his head, confused.

“Forty-three days ago, around ten in the morning, you accidentally stepped on my foot and didn’t apologize.” Bai Xiqin calmly looked at her nails.

They weren’t long enough.

“… Did I?” Leng Yebai looked at Bai Xiqin in surprise.

“Yes, it hurt a lot.” Bai Xiqin nodded seriously, “If I say it happened, it did.”

Leng Yebai was about to protest when he noticed Bai Yifan drastically winking at him while gnawing on his pork hock.

Leng Yebai’s face twitched, suddenly understanding.

He immediately caved.

“… Sorry, I shouldn’t have stepped on your foot,” Leng Yebai apologized sincerely.

“Heh!” Bai Xiqin didn’t accept the apology.

Her slender fingers wrapped in frost, slowly reaching out towards Leng Yebai.

Leng Yebai’s face stiffened, standing still, letting the storm overwhelm him.

Bai Yifan continued to bury his head in his pork hock, afraid to look up.
