Chapter 25
: Base Ingredients, Lamb, and Iced Tea?
Looking at the adoring gazes of a group of girls before him.
Chen Yu just chuckled: "Don't get too excited yet. If the class representative can't maintain the speed, the constant temperature system will break down sooner or later. And then..."
While speaking.
All the women shivered in unison.
Li Mengyao whispered, "Good luck, class monitor! Once you get to a warmer place, I'll start learning to drive! I definitely won't let you drive forever!"
Wang Mengmeng chimed in, "Yes, we can help too..."
Chen Yu didn't say anything, he just lay down on the reclined bus seat.
Enjoying Deng Yuxin's massage.
It has to be said that Zhang Zihao has good taste. Deng Yuxin not only has good looks and figure, but also a caring and considerate personality.
"Chen Yu, what do you think our next stop will be like?"
Deng Yuxin suddenly asked curiously, "I'm still a little scared."
Chen Yu didn't even lift his eyelids, and casually said, "If I say you won't die, then you definitely won't die."
Deng Yuxin's eyes immediately crinkled into a smile: "That's good! I knew you would protect me~"
The two were chatting.
In the back row, Li Mengyao and Wang Mengmeng saw everything.
Or rather, they had nowhere else to look.
The two women's expressions were somewhat complicated...
Wang Mengmeng nudged Li Mengyao's arm and whispered in her ear, "Mengyao, I don't want to die either! Can I go and tell Chen Yu too...?"
Li Mengyao's smile was somewhat forced: "You were just eagerly massaging his legs, did he even acknowledge you?"
"whispering sound."
Wang Mengmeng pouted defiantly, puffed out her chest, and tugged at her collar: "How am I any less attractive than Deng Yuxin? My figure is miles ahead of hers. Just give me a chance..."
Li Mengyao shook her head: "That guy is stubborn. He was like that when he was pursuing me."
Wang Mengmeng's eyes darted around, and she perked up instead: "Mengyao, you're just too concerned about saving face! This is a post-apocalyptic survival situation, he's ridiculously strong, it's safest to go with him!"
"What's face worth? We need to find a way to get back into his life! You're his ex-girlfriend, that status... make good use of it, it might work wonders!"
Li Mengyao's heart skipped a beat at what she said.
She instinctively looked at Chen Yu.
The boy who used to be so attentive to her, but is now hard to approach.
Regret?
I'm so angry I could cry!
How could it be such a coincidence that the world ended right after I broke up with him?
She almost suspected it was a prank by God!
The way Chen Yu looks at her now, is it any different from how he looks at a random passerby?
"no."
Li Mengyao shook her head bitterly: "Taking the initiative to approach him might just annoy him more, so it's better not to..."
Wang Mengmeng, however, was not so easily persuaded to give up.
She looked at Deng Yuxin in the front row, who was almost pressed against Chen Yu, and then at Li Mengyao beside her, whose appearance remained unchanged. A vague plan began to take shape in her mind.
"Chen Yu is a man, and every man has weaknesses."
Wang Mengmeng touched her chin, deep in thought.
Just then—
Global information synchronization channels are now open.
[Locating...]
[Location successful: Access to sequence 691 - fractal branch K7-θ observation point]
The regional channel (Haicheng Film Academy) is now activated.
The cold, impersonal system notification tone had just faded.
A semi-transparent chat interface was forcibly displayed in front of everyone.
"What...what is this?"
Deng Yuxin subconsciously shrank back.
Wang Mengmeng's eyes widened: "A chat box? There's such a function???"
Li Mengyao was also stunned, staring at the IDs that kept popping up on the screen: "They even come with names?!"
Chen Yu remained calm as he quickly scanned the messages on the channel:
[Liu Wei: Holy crap! What's this? Is anyone here?]
[Zhao Lin: There are people here! But it's all icy fog outside! We don't have any warm clothes, we're going to freeze to death!]
[Zhao Lin: Image]
[Zhou Qianqian: Classmates, can anyone help me?! I just wanted to get off the bus to use the restroom, but Teacher Wang drove off without waiting for me! I'm here...]
[Zhou Qianqian: Image]
[Wang Changjun: Qianqian, it was you who disobeyed first! Your teacher is afraid you'll get us killed!]
[Yang Kexin: o(￣▽￣)d Are all the people from the Film Academy here? That's amazing!]
Because the chat function had just been launched, everyone was frantically spamming the chat.
This even led to a conflict between the teacher and the student.
But Chen Yu didn't care...
What caught his attention more was a small square next to the chat button.
[Sun Chang: Hey! It seems like we can still trade!]
[Wu Haoxuan: Holy crap! That's amazing! Hey bro upstairs, I have some cigarettes, want to trade them for something to eat!]
[Wen Bingxin: Does anyone have a lot of bottled water? I'd like to borrow some...]
[Sun Chang: I'm not switching. Nobody smokes on our bus!]
[Wu Haoxuan: Does anyone have instant noodles or biscuits? I also have cigarettes. DM me!!!]
"My God, I can actually trade with other people through this chat box!"
"This feature is amazing! It can even take a picture of the scene in front of you. It's incredible!"
Li Mengyao sighed and quickly stepped forward, asking, "Chen Yu, should we exchange something?"
Chen Yu was taken aback: "What are you going to do?"
Li Mengyao explained, "I scored over 120 on my college entrance exam in math; I could be an accountant!"
Chen Yu suddenly realized: "Oh, I see. You just want to find yourself a job, right?"
Li Mengyao: "..."
I've never seen such a straight man before.
But the reason she proposed becoming an accountant was indeed because she wanted to find her own value.
In this terrifying survival atmosphere, the lack of self-worth makes people even more anxious and uneasy.
Chen Yu stroked his chin: "It's not impossible. How about this, you can temporarily manage the supplies in the communal backpacks. You'll be in charge of buying the hot pot base..."
"Buy...buy what?"
Li Mengyao doubted that she had heard correctly.
Chen Yu continued, "Hot pot broth, otherwise how are we supposed to eat crayfish? Do you guys want to keep eating instant noodles and biscuits? I don't want that..."
As Zhang Wanyue drove, she turned her head to the side and said, "Chen Yu, although I specifically packed a pot in my backpack as you instructed, this car has no power, so even if I bought the base ingredients..."
Her words were very tactful.
But Chen Yu waved his hand: "I'll figure out the electricity problem. You can handle the rest. I want to see the soup base, mutton, and iced tea on the table tonight."
Done.
He lay down directly, closed his eyes, and began to rest.
"???"
Li Mengyao and Wang Mengmeng exchanged a glance, both somewhat shocked.
Broth, lamb, iced tea?
What kind of combination is this?!
In a post-apocalyptic world, eating hot pot? Is that really feasible???
