Chapter 105 - If she wanted to find someone to protect her, shouldn't she choose him over Jiang Fei? (1)
Jiang Fei had finished processing all kinds of various ingredients a while ago. He had neatly arranged them on the countertop, waiting for Bei Nuan to come back and put them away.
Jiang Fei saw that Bei Nuan was back. He smiled at her and asked, "Where did you go to play?"
"We went shopping and bought back a lot of stuff." Bei Nuan wasn't in the mood to chat with him. She grabbed his sleeve and said, "Come on, go downstairs to take a look."
Jiang Fei didn't know why she wanted him to join in the excitement, but he still obediently followed her downstairs.
Once they went downstairs, they saw the college students surrounding a big pile of supplies. There were all sorts of things in the pile and everything one could think of.
Jiang Fei asked with a smile, "Did you guys bring all of this back? There's so much."
"Yup." Bei Nuan explained, "We passed by a supermarket on our way back. There were zombies everywhere inside the supermarket, so no one tried going in. Lu Xingchi cleared out the zombies. We got so many supplies. Might as well give them to these students."
After Bei Nuan reported to Jiang Fei what happened in detail, she called up her Holy Mother progress bar. Sure enough, her Holy Mother value had risen. It was simply too awesome that she got double the Holy Mother value today by acting like a Holy Mother in front of Jiang Fei.
Du Ruo came over to quietly complain to Jiang Fei, "Bei Nuan took a gas station into her pocket space just to be able to dry her hair."
"You have to be careful with that then." Jiang Fei smiled at Bei Nuan. "I used to work at a gas station. If there's something you don't know, you can ask me."
Bei Nuan wasn't confident about the giant storage tank. Her eyes lit up.
"Really? I was just about to ask someone. The fuel storage tank has to be placed upright, right?"
"That should be right because the exhaust valve has to be on top," Jiang Fei answered with a smile.
Bei Nuan frowned, "This thing is supposed to be buried deep in the ground. If we place it above ground and upright with the fuel pump on top, how can we use it?"
Jiang Fei thought it over. "We can ask Lu Xingchi to make a steel ramp. When we want to refuel, we can drive the jeep up the ramp."
They were having a lively discussion.
Lu Xingchi had been helping Song Xiyi and the others with logging the supplies. He suddenly noticed that Bei Nuan was gone. A short while later, she appeared downstairs again and was in high spirits, tugging Jiang Fei along.
Lu Xingchi intently looked at the hand she was holding Jiang Fei's sleeve.
The past few days, she had given him the same treatment: tugging on his clothes from time to time, pulling on his sleeve, and chatting with him with her head looking up at him. Since the zombie outbreak, she did whatever it took to be able to follow him. From acting cute to fake crying to throwing herself at him, she had done it all. She even kissed him and hid in a sleeping bag to stowaway in the jeep. She had also said that she didn't want to be a step away from him a few days ago.
She had been like a stray kitten that had an unwavering determination to follow him home because he happened to meet it on the road and fed it ham sausage. He could easily picture her as a kitten that incessantly bumped her head against his legs and meowed. She wouldn't take one step away from him.
Over the course of the past few days, Lu Xingchi had gotten used to her behavior. But now, she had suddenly changed and went to tug on someone else's clothes. She would run to someone else to share anything new.
This little liar.
She was looking up at Jiang Fei to talk to him. Her gaze was bright, and she was brimming with happiness. It seemed as if Jiang Fei was the only person in her eyes.
Lu Xingchi felt like someone was twisting his heart.
She had been circling around Jiang Fei since this morning. It hadn't been easy to take her out shopping, and as soon as they came back, she went running straight to Jiang Fei.
His throat felt uncomfortable. He unbuttoned his collar to loosen his collar. He didn't get it. With the way the world was, if she wanted to find someone to protect her, shouldn't she choose him over Jiang Fei? In terms of physique, physical force, ability, and even appearance, he thought he was superior to Jiang Fei.
Could it be because he was too blunt with his words? Bei Nuan might be blind to some things, but she wasn't that blind. If that wasn't it, then it had to be because she liked Jiang Fei's cooking.
She was such a foodie. That possibility wasn't impossible. For stray kittens, finding someone to feed them was still very important.
Lu Xingchi touched the backpack that contained a few cookbooks.
In the distance, he heard Bei Nuan ask Jiang Fei, "What are we eating for lunch? Is there braised eggplant?"
Jiang Fei gently asked, "How about I make you braised meatballs?"
"Braised meatballs? Awesome!" Bei Nuan cheered and twirled around.
Lu Xingchi thought; see, he was right.
