Chapter 60

The three, who were originally planning to rest, were wide awake after that little incident.

It wasn’t until Zhou Yuanyuan’s stomach, who was still shamelessly clinging to Lu Ziming, growled that the three of them looked at each other, realizing they hadn’t eaten anything since returning.

“I guess I’m not the only one who’s hungry, how about we finish off that steak we just thawed?” Zhou Yuanyuan first blushed, lowered her head, and covered her protesting stomach. After a while, as if giving up on all hope, she put down her hand and brazenly suggested.

“Well… okay, let’s eat and chat. We haven’t solved the problem of the mutated zombies yet,” Jiang Juncheng chuckled, not minding Zhou Yuanyuan’s presumptuous suggestion. Instead, he nodded in agreement.

“…Okay.” To be honest, after that bout of exercise, Lu Ziming, who hadn’t felt anything before, was now feeling empty and uncomfortable in her stomach. So, she looked at the two of them and responded.

“Yay! Steak, steak, big steak!” Seeing that the two of them agreed, Zhou Yuanyuan stopped clinging to Lu Ziming, cheered, and ran upstairs to find her steak.

It’s no wonder she was so excited. Since the outbreak of the virus, except for the food she ate at Sun Tai’s place, she hadn’t had a decent meal. Now that she discovered they could make steak to eat, it was practically a god-level treatment, how could she not be excited?

…

The grilled steak was fragrant and Zhou Yuanyuan even asked for Jiang Juncheng’s opinion and used the ingredients in her refrigerator to make three servings of spaghetti. Fortunately, Jiang Juncheng had some supplies, so it wasn’t a big deal to provide such a luxurious meal for the three of them.

But the fact that the two of them had been taking advantage of Jiang Juncheng ever since they arrived made Lu Ziming feel very embarrassed. She kept thinking that she must repay him this favor if she had the opportunity.

However, Jiang Juncheng didn’t care about these small things. He acted very casually and quickly became familiar with Zhou Yuanyuan, who also had a straightforward personality.

“I really can’t tell, you’re so young, yet your cooking skills are as skilled as mine. Hmm, worthy of praise,” Jiang Juncheng took a bite of noodles with a fork, tasted it carefully with a blink of an eye, then nodded to affirm Zhou Yuanyuan’s cooking skills.

“Right? Take a look at who cooked it!” Zhou Yuanyuan’s mouth almost split open from Jiang Juncheng’s flattery, her small face flushed as she puffed out her chest and bragged.

“Lu Ziming! You quickly try the black pepper steak I grilled! Or should I cut it for you?” After receiving affirmation from Jiang Juncheng, Zhou Yuanyuan acted arrogant for a while, then remembered to urge Lu Ziming, who was sitting on the side looking a little restrained. As she spoke, she even reached for the knife and fork on the side, pretending to cut the meat for Lu Ziming to eat.

“No, no! I can do it myself. You eat yours, otherwise, it’ll get cold after all this work, and you won’t even get a hot bite,” Lu Ziming quickly stopped Zhou Yuanyuan’s actions. She had probably been with Zhou Yuanyuan for too long these days, and her output of words had obviously increased. It was just that she didn’t notice it at all, but habitually maintained a polite and distant relationship with the people around her. However, she no longer showed a deliberate rejection towards Zhou Yuanyuan’s unusual behavior within her safe distance, as if she had gradually gotten used to the existence of this chattering girl.

Jiang Juncheng, who was chewing on the steak, glanced at Lu Ziming’s performance, the corner of his mouth twitched into a meaningful smile, with an expression of understanding that he had gotten the scoop, and he didn’t open his mouth to tease them again.

“To be honest, your cooking is really pretty good, it doesn’t match your image at all. Who did you learn from? Mom? Dad? Or other elders?” While eating, the three chatted casually.

Indeed, in this era, an eighteen or nineteen-year-old girl with good cooking skills can make a good impression, especially someone like Zhou Yuanyuan, who has a history of hanging out with some shady young men and women because she didn’t want to study hard. But now she suddenly discovered that this girl, who usually acted like a little gangster, could actually make delicious food. It was simply a miracle that could turn a failing contestant back to positive.

“Self-taught! Self-taught talent! Amazing, right?” Zhou Yuanyuan stuffed beef into her mouth while vaguely showing off.

“Self-taught?? That’s a bit fake, right? You’re lying without blinking an eye?” Jiang Juncheng took a sip of water and swallowed, looking disbelieving, seriously doubting that Zhou Yuanyuan was just a kid talking big and bragging.

“Who’s lying? Ask Lu Ziming, I’ve known her for so long, have I ever bragged?” Zhou Yuanyuan became anxious, swallowed the food in her mouth whole, and retorted with wide eyes.

“Besides the stupid things she did before, she really hasn’t bragged,” Lu Ziming was eating silently when she was suddenly dragged into the “battle” between Jiang Juncheng and Zhou Yuanyuan. To show neutrality, she said with a sincere expression.

“Stupid… Lu Ziming!! Don’t mention that!” Seeing Lu Ziming suddenly mention the fact that she volunteered to attract zombies in order to attract zombies, but almost backfired and lost her life, Zhou Yuanyuan blushed, feeling somewhat embarrassed and annoyed, but couldn’t refute it, because Lu Ziming was telling the truth.

“Oh? What happened? Tell me about it.” Jiang Juncheng had been hiding in the underground bunker alone, researching weapons day and night. Now that he finally had someone to chat with, he felt pretty good. Hearing about the two’s experiences these days, it was like a story, quite interesting. Hearing Lu Ziming mention Zhou Yuanyuan’s embarrassing incident, he immediately became interested and urged with sparkling eyes.

“It’s just…”

Seeing that Lu Ziming was actually starting to talk about that day, Zhou Yuanyuan wasn’t even in a hurry to eat the few remaining pieces of beef on the plate. She immediately got up and walked to Lu Ziming in two steps, reached out and put her arm around Lu Ziming’s head, then covered her mouth and threatened, “Don’t say it!! If you say it again, I won’t let you eat!!”

Lu Ziming only felt her body stagger, and her head crashed into Zhou Yuanyuan’s arms next to her. Her ears were squeezed between two mounds of soft flesh, feeling a sense of stuffiness as if she had fallen into the sea. Yet in the sounds that seemed to be drowned by the tide, she heard the powerful beat of “thump, thump”.

After being covered by Zhou Yuanyuan’s small hand, her nose felt surrounded by the aroma that had suddenly increased her appetite.

Even though she had just been eating spaghetti and steak, and there wasn’t much food left on the plate, at this moment, a strong sense of hunger suddenly surged from the depths of Lu Ziming’s body. Her eyes instantly turned red under the impact of this feeling. Underneath her covered mouth, her throat rolled and she unconsciously swallowed the saliva that had suddenly arisen.
