Chapter 121 - 121 I’ve Never Had Iced Red Tea That Costs Three Yuan



After the boiled meat slices were stir-fried, they were placed in a small stainless-steel basin and placed beside the stove. This helped keep the meat warm so that it would not turn cold while they were cooking the next dish. Taking advantage of the free time, He Xing washed the pot deftly and added more rice into the pot before making steamed pork ribs. The steamed chicken was the last to be done. All three dishes were meat dishes. He Xing then took out a pot of rice. The two of them sat by the stove and began to have dinner together.

He Xing insisted that Du Yue take the first bite. Du Yue picked up a piece of rib and put it in her mouth to taste. He Xing did not pick up his chopsticks. Instead, he looked at Du Yue with eager eyes. “Is it good?”

Du Yue looked at him when she heard that. She could see a trace of nervousness in his sparkling eyes.

When they were outside, whether they encountered groups of wild beasts or robbers on the road, He Xing had never shown a trace of fear or nervousness. However, he was actually starting to get nervous in front of a few dishes. An indescribable feeling welled up in Du Yue’s heart. She took a bite of the rib. The heat when He Xing was cooking the ribs was a little off. “The ribs are a little tough. However, this is your first time making it, and the difficulty of this dish is quite high, so it’s already very good.” It was the same for the boiled meat slices. As the control of the fire and the amount of seasoning was not very precise, the taste was somewhat unsatisfactory. However, Du Yue felt that it was not easy for a newbie to achieve this.

He Xing heaved a sigh of relief when he heard Du Yue’s sincere comment. “It seems that I’ve succeeded since you’ve given me such a high evaluation. I’m relieved. Let’s eat quickly. It won’t taste good when it’s cold.”

Why did he say that he was at ease after receiving such a high evaluation from her? Du Yue felt that this sentence was a little strange. She was not a professional chef, and her evaluation was only that of an amateur.

However, when she looked at He Xing again, she saw that he had already lowered his head and was eating. She did not think too much about it and started to eat seriously. Except for the rice, which was a little too much, the two of them finished all three dishes. He did not make any soup, but He Xing brought out the iced red tea. Both of them had a bottle each. The red tea was at room temperature and was placed by the wall. However, the temperature in the room was only a dozen degrees. The room-temperature red tea was a little cold when it entered their mouths.

He Xing’s well-defined fingers twirled the bottle of red tea gently. “No wonder everyone calls it precious sweet water. These things are sweet and taste really good.”

Du Yue looked at He Xing and saw the obvious surprise in his eyes. Seeing him in this state, Du Yue’s previous doubts welled up in her heart again. She tried to ask, “Why does it seem like you rarely eat these things?”

He Xing nodded and replied nonchalantly, “Yeah, I’ve never had these before.”

Du Yue was stunned. Iced red tea was not an expensive drink before the apocalypse. What kind of life did He Xing lead in the past? Du Yue looked at him sympathetically, but she did not pursue the matter. Perhaps He Xing did not want to reminisce about his past. She could not dig up his old wounds.

Du Yue thought about it and consoled him seriously, “It’s okay. The past is over. You have a lot of contribution points now anyway. You can buy anything you want.”

“That’s true,” He Xing replied. He had been waiting for Du Yue to continue asking, but who knew that Du Yue would not play by the rules? Not only did she not question him, but she even consoled him.

This made He Xing feel that the kind of life he had led in the past was worthy of pity. However, after thinking about it carefully, the technology in the galaxy was advanced and the weapons were high-end. He did not lack money and ability either. However, in terms of food, the galaxy was indeed much worse than this place! Thinking about it this way, the days he had lived in the past were indeed not very happy.

He Xing’s feelings were complicated when he suddenly realized this. Du Yue was observing him from the side. Seeing that his mood was gradually getting worse, she decided to change the topic. “I almost forgot. I have something to tell you.”

He Xing immediately perked up. “What’s the matter? Tell me.”
