Chapter 26 - Mistress of the Safe House

Ye Xingchen had just finished his exercise and showered. At this time, he was wearing black silk pajamas and watching a movie on the sofa. The pajama's collar was loose all the way to his waist, and a few abs were faintly visible under the thin clothes.

The room was as bright as day, and there was fitness equipment in the room. Ye Xingchen stood up very naturally with his phone in hand and went to the kitchen to get some water.

As Ye Xingchen walked around, Chen Rou'er and Chu Yao noticed the table full of imported snacks and drinks.

Then, Ye Xingchen went to the kitchen, put the cup down on the coffee machine, and pressed the button. Then, he raised his phone and looked at Chen Rou'er so that Chen Rou' er and Chu Yao could clearly see the cleaned lamb chops, steak, and various dried seafood in the kitchen, including but not limited to dried abalone, shark's fin, dried scallops, caviar, various mushrooms, and even cakes and desserts.

That's right, Ye Xingchen had secretly taken them out of his space and placed them on the cooking table when he came in just now. His purpose was to let Chen Rou'er and Chu Yao take a good look.

Of course, the fresh seafood would also be his dinner tonight. He would roast them together later.

With that thought in mind, Ye Xingchen turned around and took out a bottle of cold beer from the fridge to go with the freshly roasted barbecue.

On the other end of the screen, Chen Rou'er and Chu Yao were stunned. They even forgot about their jealousy.

Ye Xingchen saw the disbelief on their faces.

Chen Rou'er and Chu Yao's hair was messy and their faces were haggard. They looked like they were in a sorry state.

In this weather, Chen Rou'er and Chu Yao had not put on makeup for a long time. Their faces were a little sunken from the lack of food for many days. If they were not born with good looks, they would not be much to look at now.

The moment he saw Chen Rou'er, Ye Xingchen Chen was somewhat disappointed.

In the past, he had been pursuing the goddess whom he had always been infatuated with, but it turned out that she was only so much.

Now, it seemed that she was only slightly better looking than the average person.

However, at this moment, the two women did not pay attention to Ye Xingchen's expression at all. Their attention had long been attracted by the food on the kitchen counter and coffee table.

The thin clothes meant that Ye Xingchen's house was really... it might even be as he said... It was a little hot.

And that bright light… During the days when the power was cut off, the two of them didn't even dare to play with their phones. After all, the power was cut off. Even if they had several fully charged power banks at home, they didn't know how long they could last.

When the video call came, Chen Rou'er's phone had already started to prompt that the battery was low and that she needed to charge it.

Besides, the table was full of imported snacks…That kitchen was full of delicious food…

Chen Rou'er rubbed her eyes in disbelief, afraid that she was hallucinating after starving for so long.

It was like a dream!

Did Ye Xingchen really live in the same city and neighborhood as them?

Could it be that their villa area had a lot of resources, but his apartment and residential buildings didn't?

However, that was impossible. Two days ago, he saw the residents of the villa area asking if anyone had offered supplies in the group chat.

"How have you been recently?" Ye Xingchen asked indifferently. "Looking at you guys, did you successfully lose weight? Congratulations!"

When Chen Rou'er and Chu Yao heard Ye Xingchen's indifferent words, they were so angry that they wanted to curse.

Lose weight? How did they lose weight? They were starving to death!

With the lack of supplies, they only dared to eat a bag of instant noodles with the two of them every day. Even so, the food at home was almost finished.

Chen Rou'er's eyes were fixed on the things on Ye Xingchen's cooking table. She quietly swallowed her saliva and pretended to ask, "Brother Xingchen, why do you have so much food at home? Are these the things you bought the last time I came to see you?"

"I remember that you bought a truckload of things at that time."

Ye Xingchen pretended to be unconcerned and glanced behind him. "Oh, you mean those? I'm just using them to practice. If they taste good, I'll eat a few mouthfuls. If they don't taste good, I'll throw them away. Coincidentally, I read a recipe a few days ago and thought that I could learn it if I have nothing to do."

Ye Xingchen wasn't lying. He just said that he was throwing it away. He threw it into the space and especially found a place to store it.

What a joke. Although the taste of those dishes wasn't very good, it was a delicacy that others wouldn't even dare to imagine in the apocalypse!

After experiencing the hunger of the apocalypse, Ye Xingchen would not do something as wasteful as throwing them away as trash.

Ye Xingchen's honest words were undoubtedly a blatant act of showing off in Chen Rou'er and Chu Yao's ears.

Everyone was about to run out of instant noodles, and he actually said that he would use these things to practice?!

Ye Xingchen could clearly see the two of them drooling, but he didn't say a word. He just quietly watched the expressions of these two "goddesses" who were like hungry beggars.

"Brother Xingchen has so much stock at home. Many people outside can't even eat! Brother Xingchen was really smart. He had long made preparations!"

For the first time ever, Ye Xingchen was called Brother Xingchen by Chen Rou'er.

The corners of Ye Xingchen's mouth curled up slightly.

"Is that so? I haven't gone out for more than ten days. I don't even know what's going on outside."

Chen Rou'er was shivering from the cold, and her teeth were itching from hatred.

Although she wasn't in the small group of villa owners in the residential area, it wasn't like she didn't know how Ye Xingchen had insulted people in the group.

How could he not know what was going on outside?

Even if no one in the small group chat in their villa area said anything, everyone in the large group chat in the community complained a lot. How could Ye Xingchen not know?!

Chen Rou'er and Chu Yao had wicked thoughts in their hearts at the same time.

Chen Rou'er no longer thought about her reserved persona. She only had one thought now, and that was that she had to stay at Ye Xingchen's house!

After enduring the cold and hunger for so many days, Chen Rou'er did not know how long she could last with the remaining instant noodles at home.

Moreover, Chu Yao also needed to eat at home.

At the same time, Chu Yao had the same thought.

No matter what, Ye Xingchen was still a man, even if his face was slightly inferior to Chen Rou'er's…She lowered her head and looked at the blanket wrapped tightly around her.

But she was also a publicly acknowledged sexy goddess! Her figure was much better than Chen Rou'er's!

On the other side, Chen Rou'er had already put on a weak and pitiful look as she blinked at Ye Xingchen.

"I've known Brother Xingchen for so long, but I've never tasted Brother Xingchen's cooking. In this society, there aren't many men who know how to cook. Brother Xingchen is really amazing. Sigh, it's my fault for being stupid before. I didn't realize that Brother Xingchen had so many good qualities…"

Suddenly, Chen Rou'er put on a shy look, her cheeks flushed red as she said shyly, "Brother Xingchen, I'm also very good at cooking. I have the answer to the question you asked me before."

"I'm willing to be the mistress of your house."
