Chapter 293 - 293 292 Sent to the Door
?Chapter 293: Chapter 292: Sent to the Door Chapter 293: Chapter 292: Sent to the Door A group of people sorted their resources, organizing them neatly into categories.
Dinner was prepared by Luo Ning.
Before long, wafts of delicious scents drifted from the kitchen.
Smelling the aroma, Fan Ye and the others couldn’t help but sniff the air.
“What dish is Brother Ning making? My cravings are being enticed.”
Ever since they had arrived here, they had been eating convenience foods and hadn’t had a proper meal in days.
Bo Xuan smiled and said, “Brother Ning’s cooking skills are fantastic. Tonight we’re going to have a real feast.”
He had seen Luo Ning’s cooking shows live, so he knew her cooking was especially good.
Jin Feiyang said, inhaling the aroma, “Being in Brother Ning’s team this time is truly blissful!”
Soon, Luo Ning finished cooking the meal.
Fan Ye and the others volunteered to carry it out from the kitchen.
Due to the limited ingredients and the need to conserve, they only made three dishes with one soup.
They made braised pork, stewed lamb, and stir-fried cabbage, with tomato and egg soup.
All the dishes were generous portions, and there was plenty of rice cooked as well.
From the moment they picked up the first piece of food, they ate ravenously without pausing to speak.
Normally, they each had a capacity for two bowls of rice, but today they managed to eat four bowls each.
Having completely cleared the dishes and soup from the table, their faces revealed expressions of full satisfaction.
“Brother Ning, your cooking is too amazing!” Fan Ye gave Luo Ning a thumbs up.
Jin Feiyang added, “Although it’s just simple home-cooked fare, it tastes even better than what I’ve had from chefs at top-tier star-rated hotels.”
Yue Xiao, patting his full stomach, said, “I have the same feeling. Brother Ning’s hands can turn decay into magic.”
Bo Xuan also said, “This is the best braised pork and stewed lamb I’ve ever had.”
Luo Ning laughed, “Aren’t you guys exaggerating a bit?”
“Not at all, your cooking skills are truly impressive,” they assured her.
Looking at Luo Ning, Fan Ye exclaimed, “Who knows which lucky bastard will benefit from our Brother Ning in the future.”
Yue Xiao and the others shared a look, as if they were reluctant to marry off a daughter, “Exactly, who knows what lucky bastard will receive such fortune.”
Jin Feiyang agreed, “Right, right, in the future, Brother Ning, you need to bring any prospective guys to us first, so we can help you evaluate them.”
“We are like your family; if any bastard tries to bully you, we’ll go teach him a lesson.”
Even the normally reserved and mature Bo Xuan nodded in agreement, “Indeed, in the future, we have to help safeguard Brother Ning and not let anyone bully him.”
They had already come to see Luo Ning as one of their own and naturally felt protective of her.
As for them trying to break her heart themselves, that they could not do.
After all, with such familiarity, they couldn’t bring themselves to make that move.
Therefore, in their minds, they had all agreed that the fickle-hearted Ji Jiayi was definitely unworthy of their Brother Ning.
Make secret plans to reveal Ji Er’s past in front of Brother Ning in the future, preventing Ji Er from getting too close.
Luo Ning, caught between laughter and tears, looked at them, “Well then, I thank you guys in advance!”
Ji Jiayi, who was originally watching the live stream, laughed upon hearing the brothers’ plans to vet Luo Ning’s future boyfriend. True to form, good brothers indeed.
Then, he sneezed several times involuntarily. He rubbed his nose, wondering who might be thinking of him.
If he knew what his brothers were thinking right at that moment, he would definitely flip out. This was just plastic brotherly love; these guys chose romance over bromance.
[As if you aren’t stinky men yourselves.]
[Pfft, are you guys planning to raise Brother Ning like your own daughter?]
“The look on their faces, like a father-in-law full of grievances at his son-in-law, was just too funny.”
“Could it be that these iron dolts are devoted fans of my Ningbao?”
“Honestly, I can’t bear to let Ningbao be taken advantage of by other lousy men.”
“Exactly, it’s better for our Brother Ning to be beautiful on his own.”
After the meal, Luo Ning didn’t bother anymore, and the others took initiative, taking on the task of cleaning up after washing the dishes.
They were all so clumsy, obviously never doing housework regularly.
But Luo Ning wouldn’t indulge them, let them learn and they would get the hang of it.
She was just helping their future girlfriends out, training them well.
After they finished cleaning and returned to the living room, they smelled the fragrance of tea.
Luo Ning was holding a cup of tea and waved them over, “Come and have some tea to cut through the greasiness.”
The guys walked over and sat down, each picking up a cup of tea and leisurely sipping it.
Jin Feiyang stretched his legs and sighed, “Now this is living.”
Fan Ye laughed and said, “That’s right, all thanks to us having Brother Ning.”
He added in schadenfreude, “I’ve been keeping an eye on news from other teams; they’re all having a tough time right now.”
Yue Xiao took a sip of tea and chuckled, “Exactly, if they’re not on the road killing zombies, they’re on the road getting killed by zombies. We’ve got it good.”
As they were chatting, the doorbell rang.
Bo Xuan stood up to open the door and saw a few other teams had come looking for them.
He let them in.
As these people entered, they smelled the lingering aroma of food and the tea scent filling the room, and they instantly felt sour.
They had heard from teams who had already bought intelligence from the Huaxia Team that these guys not only had food but also helicopters and the most advanced weapons.
Although they hadn’t completely believed it before, now, smelling the food and seeing Bo Xuan and the others’ relaxed demeanor, they believed it.
How could these guys be so at ease? They had all suffered a lot to get to the base.
It really is infuriating to compare oneself to others.
Seeing those envious, jealous, and hateful expressions full of sourness, Fan Ye and the others couldn’t help but feel smug again.
“Are you here to buy intelligence?”
The captains of the several teams immediately nodded, “Yeah, we’re here to buy intelligence.”
They had all heard about the rules, and as Bo Xuan had said, they sent a message to the system and got the first clue, and information on where to find the second clue.
As these people checked out their guns, they turned into lemon spirits and said plenty of sour words.
Those who had originally planned to scrounge a meal were chased away by Fan Ye and his group.
After a good night’s sleep, the next morning Luo Ning went through her morning routine and made breakfast in the process.
Fan Ye and the others felt blissful eating porridge and buns, even more reluctant now to let Brother Ning be married off.
Just after they finished eating, Liao You arrived.
Luo Ning wiped the corner of her mouth and asked, “Captain Liao, what’s up?”
Otherwise, it was unlikely he would come at this time.
Smelling the fragrance, Liao You looked at the dining table with regret; he had wanted to scrounge a couple of buns to eat.
With the aroma, the taste must be good.
Luo Ning’s question quickly brought him back to his senses, “There’s something at the base that we need your help with.”
He sat down opposite Luo Ning, “Dr. Luo’s illness is almost cured, and he’s preparing to move the laboratory equipment and important documents to the base, so we need to trouble you again to come and pick the lock.”
Even if Dr. Luo hadn’t taken the initiative to mention it, the base’s higher-ups were also uneasy about letting Dr. Luo and other scientific research experts go back to that lab where zombies frequently gather.
Luo Ning’s eyes and brows smiled, “No problem.”
Just as she expected, when it came to people needing contact with Dr. Luo and the lab, the base would take the initiative to deliver the opportunity right to her door.
