Finally, after the kitchen was cleared, Li Shiqian prepared the meal in a few seconds.
The spiritual energy is rich and the color, fragrance and flavor are all present.
Xu Qiuqian swallowed, her eyes glued to the food brought out by Li Shiqian.
"The small kitchen is reserved for the store manager." Li Shiqian said helplessly.
She now believed that Xu Qiuqian only helped her because of the food she cooked.
Xu Qiuqian's eyes lit up and she quickly wanted to go to the small kitchen and stopped after taking two steps.
"I'll go with you."
Anyway, the food can be eaten anytime in the kitchenette.
The two of them came to the store where the children lived together. I don't know if it was because Xu Qiuqian had been there, but when they entered the store again, they did not see those children.
"Store manager, what should I do?"
"Just put it on the ground and see if they eat it."
Li Shiqian put the food on the ground in response, and the two left immediately.
Seeing that the two people had indeed left, the child who hid in another store carefully returned to the original store.
When they saw the deliciously fragrant food on the floor, they couldn't stop hearing the sound of swallowing. Their stomachs growled like crazy, but none of them stepped forward to grab it. Instead, they looked at the oldest child.
The little boy looks about ten years old and is very thin.
"Give it to my sister first." The little boy said.
No one else had any objections.
So the little boy turned around and walked into the store, picking up a baby from the corner.
Compared to the other children, the baby's condition seemed a little better, but only a little.
The baby was quiet and not noisy at all. When he saw the little boy, he immediately laughed and stretched out his chubby little hands to grab it.
The little boy also laughed and said, "Sister, be good."
He took the baby out. The baby seemed to smell the fragrance and turned his body curiously to have a look. His saliva also flowed out. The little boy still did not feed the baby directly.
Instead, he took a sip of the spiritual porridge first.
After confirming that it was spiritual porridge and not poisonous, he carefully cooled it and fed it to the baby.
The baby had never eaten such delicious spiritual porridge. He couldn't wait to swallow it. Before he finished it, his mouth opened again. The little boy hurriedly fed it. Seeing this, other children also focused on the baby.
The baby eats very little.
The little boy was only fed some spiritual porridge. After he was full, the baby fell asleep sweetly.
At this time, the little boy gave the baby to another girl who was two years younger than him.
He divided the remaining meal into five even portions and put the baby in his arms again.
"Eat."
Several other children picked up their own portions, and in tacit agreement gave a small portion to the little boy, and then started to devour it hungrily.
The little boy looked at the few people devouring their food, and felt an unspeakable cry of sorrow in his heart.
It's not that he doesn't know that these meals may be poisonous, but he can't stop them because they have been hungry for too long and if they don't eat anymore, they will starve to death.
If these meals are really poisonous, just eat them before you die.
It's good that they managed to survive for so long.
Even if we die, everyone will die together.
After the little girl next to her finished eating, she took the initiative to take the baby.
"Brother Yu, eat quickly."
The little boy responded and ate it without hesitation.
When the spirit beast meat enters your mouth, you feel a strong spiritual energy filling your body.
tasty!
He has never had such a delicious meal!
The little boy was only ten years old after all, and he wolfed down the food.
After eating, the children lay on the ground and fell asleep, but the little boy kept his eyes open.
He felt so bad that he couldn't sleep.
Obviously many things in the past have been blurred, but he suddenly remembered that his parents taught him how to introduce Qi into his body when they were still alive.
Simply stand up and sit cross-legged, closing your eyes.
the other side.
Xu Qiuqian was relieved when she heard Li Shiqian say that several children were lying on the ground and fast asleep after eating.
"Let's go."
The two returned to the store.
Xu Qiuqian couldn't wait to go to the small kitchen in the backyard.
Thinking that he would be able to eat the meal he had been thinking about soon, he couldn't help but swallow his saliva. Looking at Xu Qiuqian's appearance, Li Shiqian couldn't help but laugh.
Her impression of the store manager.
From the very beginning, he was mature and steady, but now he is gradually crumbling.
And her tense nerves relaxed unconsciously.
"I don't have much left for you. If it's not enough, just tell me and I'll make you some more."
Xu Qiuqian waved her hands quickly.
"No, it's just enough to satisfy my craving. It's not a meal."
So that you won’t be able to eat anymore when it’s time to eat.
However, when the two of them went to the small kitchen, they found that the food Li Shiqian left for Xu Qiuqian was gone!
"What's going on?" Xu Qiuqian was confused, "Didn't you say there was food left for me?"
Li Shiqian was also confused.
"Yes, I did keep it."
"Then why didn't I see it?"
"...could someone have eaten it?"
Xu Qiuqian shook his head: "This store has a defense system. No one else can come in. And I have also set up the backyard so that no one can enter except the store manager and clerk!"
After saying that, Xu Qiuqian thought of something.
She hurriedly ran to Yun Yi's room and found that Yun Yi was missing on the bed. She ran back to the backyard study and breathed a sigh of relief when she saw Yun Yi sitting cross-legged in the spirit gathering array.
Yun Yi has just entered concentration.
When he noticed someone, he opened his eyes, his eyes lit up, he stood up and walked towards Xu Qiuqian.
"Store manager!"
Xu Qiuqian patted Yunyi's head: "Just wake up."
Yun Yi couldn't hold back and stretched out his arms to hug Xu Qiuqian. Xu Qiuqian hugged Yun Yi back naturally, while Li Shiqian remained quiet on the side.
After a while, Xu Qiuqian pushed Yun Yi away.
"The food in the kitchen is for you to eat."
"Yes, isn't it left for me?" Yun Yi looked confused.
"...It's just for you." Xu Qiuqian smiled.
Yun Yi reacted and said sheepishly: "I'm sorry, manager, I was too hungry when I woke up. I originally wanted to cook it myself, but I smelled the delicious food left in the kitchen and thought it was left for me, so I couldn't help it. have eaten."
"It's okay, just eat it and do it again."
"Yeah! By the way, manager, who cooked that food? It smells so delicious! It's even more delicious than what we had in that restaurant a few days ago!"
Xu Qiuqian found that after Yun Yi woke up this time, he seemed much more cheerful and lively than before.
This is a good thing.
She smiled and introduced Li Shiqian next to her: "Let me introduce to you, this is Mrs. Li. She used to work as a cook in Taolingwan and is now a clerk in our store. What you just ate was made by her."
Yun Yi looked at Li Shiqian, thinking of his haste at this time, he lowered his head in panic.
"Yes, I'm sorry, I didn't scare you, right? I didn't mean to..."
"It's okay, I'm not scared. I've seen worse things than this." Li Shiqian comforted her. Because of Yun Yi's praise of her food just now, she felt very good about Yun Yi.
Yun Yi raised his head cautiously and looked relieved when he saw that Li Shiqian really didn't care.
Then he lowered his eyes, a hint of darkness flashed across his eyes.
