He hadn’t asked for clarity earlier since he wanted to avoid Fu Cao’s request, lest she force him to eat Dongpo meat again . However, he had a rough idea in his mind about what Fu Cao meant when she talked about full sleeved clothes .
Everyone kept some hidden cards to themselves . Zhang Zhongmin had long since discovered that Fu Cao seemed to know a lot of things .
Every time she brought down a pile of stuff from upstairs, he could feel something was fishy . Based on his observation, the area upstairs wasn’t that big, includingFu Cao who slept upstairs . From the beginning to present, what was delivered to the school had long exceeded the amount that could be accommodated upstairs .
Zhang Zhongmin also understood that Fu Cao had no ill will towards them . Otherwise, when they were surrounded by zombies, Fu Cao wouldn’t have come to their aid .
Although she didn’t really stand out , if not for her help, Zhang Zhongmin wondered if the people staying inside the school could still be so lucky to be alive and kicking .
Zhang Zhongmin gave a report of what happened at the restaurant to Lu Xuan .
Lu Xuan nodded seriously, but he still felt it was a little strange: ”Instructor, why don’t you go and ask her? If you have some questions , Fu Cao will tell you, right?”
After interacting for such a long time, Lu Xuan had also figured out Fu Cao’s way of handling things . She was actually a good hearted person .
Zhang Zhongmin smiled somewhat awkwardly, “From next time onwards, call me Captain Zhang . ”
This obvious change in the subject made Lu Xuan puzzled . Looking at Zhang Zhongmin’s face, he said, “Then should I go now?”
“En . ” After thinking about it again, Zhang Zhongmin hastened to say this with a very serious expression on his face, “If Fu Cao invites you to eat dongpo meat, don’t eat it . ”
“…… . ” Lu Xuan had a hard time understanding, why this? He felt that whoever might want to harm him, Fu Cao was definitely not one of them , if she really wanted to harm him, she would have never reminded him in the first place, and would have let him die on his own . Maybe he already would have become a zombie and killed, ‘How nice’ .
Still, he nodded to Zhong Zhongmin before walking away .
Fu Cao didn’t actually eat the three crystal nuclei in one mouthful but savored them slowly with small bites . After waiting for the last bit of the third piece to drop into her mouth, she narrowed her eyes comfortably .
Because she exerted her spiritual force outside the school, she could not feel his presence until Lu Xuan walked to the door .
She revealed a sweet smile, ”What brings you here? Not training anymore?”

Every time he saw Fu Cao smiling, Lu Xuan’s eyes would always fall uncontrollably on the dimples and pearly white teeth at the corner of Fu Cao’s mouth . He nodded, “Um, yes . I have something I’d like to ask you . ”
With a quick glance, Fu Cao quickly ran into the kitchen, and took out the plate of meat from the s.p.a.ce . She pretended to serve it as if she took it right out of the pot .
Placing the plate, she then drew out one side of the chopsticks and put it down in front of Lu Xuan: “Here, here, try it first . ”
She smiled narrowly as she looked at Lu Xun with great antic.i.p.ation in her eyes .
He peered at the vibrant looking, fragrant dongpo meat and Zhang Zhongmin’s words came to Lu Xuan’s mind . He could tell that when he warned him, he was very nervous, so what was it about this thing that made Zhang Zhangmin so scared?
But even with Zhang Zhongmin’s instruction when Lu Xun looked at Fu Cao’s expectant eyes, nevertheless he still picked up the fatty, lean piece of the dongpo meat with chopsticks and took a small bite .
It was fatty but not mushy, the meat was a little firm, maybe because it had been stewed for so long, he almost bit it off with a light bite, meanwhile the stew was also very smooth .
Fu Cao had worked exactly according to the proportions mentioned in the recipe, the standard simply cannot be the standard anymore . She was about as sophisticated as a culinary master .
“Well?” Fu Cao watched as Lu Xuan ate and was instantly happy .
“Yum!” Lu Xuan did not know how to praise others, but he could share an honest opinion .
The simple two words simply made Fu Cao happy . Her anger due to being previously rejected by Zhang Zhongmin also disappeared completely . She smiled and said, “Then eat quickly, you guys can’t even eat enough in school . I’m going to make you some noodles!”
She couldn’t cook noodles yet, but It wasn’t hard to make instant noodles . She cooked a whole packet directly for Lu Xuan and brought it out .
The first thing he was told was to ask about something, however, Lu Xuan was currently eating in a mesmerized state . A complete meal with Dongpo meat, fresh vegetables and instant noodles; everything was licked clean .
Lu Xuan sighed with satisfaction . These days he couldn’t even eat a bag of instant noodles to keep himself full . It wasn’t known if they could only eat three portions of food simply because of other restrictions or the reason was them becoming an ability user .
The Dongpo meat made by Fu Cao only had four pieces, but those four pieces were not small at all . Although he chewed slowly, the food vanished fast . He also drank the instant noodle soup without leaving anything .
“Have you eaten enough?” Fu Cao looked at Lu Xuan and thought it would have been better if she added an egg to his bowl just now . In her opinion, this much food was more than enough for a young adult, but what she didn’t expect was for Lu Xuan to actually finish it completely .
After he came to his senses, Lu Xuan found out that all he had been doing was gulping down everything with his head low in one swoop . He didn’t even know when Fu Cao sat across from him and started staring at him with her s.h.i.+ning eyes .

He ate everything here by himself while she didn’t even get to eat anything at all!
He blushed in embarra.s.sment and said, “Yeah and sorry…… . ”
Fu Cao laughed: ”What are you sorry for? I’m so glad you ate everything so happily, but remember it was only free for this time, so next time you want to eat, I’ll charge you with the crystal nuclei . By the way, what did you want to ask me about?”
It was only then that Lu Xun finally remembered Zhang Zhongmin’s earlier words and asked .
“These days during day time the weather keeps getting hotter and hotter while during the night it gets colder and colder…” However, before Lu Xuan’s words finished, Fu Cao’s face went cold .
She had kindly asked Zhang Zhongmin to try her food…although it was not something fancy . Zhang Zhongmin’s performance really made her boil with anger .
As soon as he heard Lu Xuan’s words, she guessed who was behind this unexpected visit, Fu Cao narrowed his eyes and said, “Zhang Zhongmin asked you to question this?”
Zhang Zhongmin wasn’t dull . At that time when she touched this topic, he must have gotten some idea but he just wasn’t sure and dared not continue to ask, which Fu Cao found strange .
It seemed like he only wanted to avoid eating Dongpo meat, so he hurriedly ran away and asked Lu Xun to come and ask in his place instead .
Does he, Zhang Zhongmin, think she’s stupid? While he kept swallowing his saliva with his eyes stuck on her dongpo meat as if he couldn’t tear it off, he still dared to say he doesn’t like eating greasy food . What greasy food!?
Seeing Lu Xuan nod, Fu Cao grunted coldly, but after a thought, she still went upstairs and took down dozens of full sleeved clothes, both for men and women in different sizes and placed on top of the table .
“As I said before, only when he eats this plate of dongpo meat will I give away clothes . Now, since it turned out to be you who’s eating, I’ll still hold onto my words . ” Fu Cao glanced at Lu Xuan as she continued: ” And I know what you want to ask . ”
“This weather is only going to get worse and not better . When you guys go out later in the day, remember to wear long sleeves as much as possible and avoid direct contact with the sun, but if you must, try to stay for as little as possible under the sun . ” Saying that, Fu Cao also instructed, “You guys need to go out and collect supplies right? When the time comes, don’t forget to collect the winter stuff as well, the winter will get colder and colder in the future . ”
Lu Xun had no doubt in Fu Cao’s words at all, it was only because of Fu Cao he was alive, hence giving him an inexplicable blind trust in Fu Cao .
Just as he felt that no matter how different Fu Cao seemed , he knew she would never hurt him . He also believed there was probably nothing in this world that Fu Cao did not know about .
Therefore, when Fu Cao said so, he had no doubt in his heart .
“I’ll go out the day after tomorrow to get supplies and will bring you the crystal nuclei . ” Lu Xuan knew that Fu Cao needed crystal nuclei, for these clothes, he was going to exchange them just like he did for food .

However, Fu Cao blinked and waved her hand, “For This batch of clothes you don’t need to pay with crystal nuclei, you just have to do one thing for me . ”
Besides crystal nuclei, Fu Cao actually had something she wanted him to help her with? Lu Xuan’s eyes lit up and he felt that he finally had a chance to use his martial arts . He looked at Fu Cao with antic.i.p.ation: “What is it?”
Fu Cao came over and whispered in Lu Xuan’s ear .
Although she knew clearly that there was no one here, and even if she said directly no one would have heard her . But when the thought of whispering like how she used to do in school set foot in, it excited Fu Cao and she suddenly did so .
She thought it seemed mysterious and all the more dramatic .
Earlier, Fu Cao felt that she was becoming more and more cautious now . Because of Zhang Zhongmin’s reaction today, it had been on her mind, and her whole body felt uncomfortable .
But she didn’t see anything wrong with being careful, who doesn’t have a flaw or something . Although, she doesn’t see that as her fault anymore . Wasn’t this normal to make her uncomfortable and have the urge to go back to take her revenge?
“Good . ” As for Fu Cao’s request, Lu Xuan agreed without hesitation . Fu Cao, who originally thought she was going to get tangled in a word chain for a while, smiled even brighter .
She decided it was better to let Lu Xuan come over here later to have a nice meal . But she would not give him extra things to take back, after all, give and take was a must for everyone .
“Then get back to work . ” Fu Cao waved her hand .
Lu Xuan lifted dozens of clothes, even if they were spring clothes, a few dozens of them added up together, it weighs a lot . However, when he lifted it in his hands it was as easy as if it had no weight and was just a single sheet of paper .
Zhang Zhongmin helped Lu Xuan collect half a bag of instant noodles and stood at the door of the East Gate for Lu Xuan . He waited for a long time for Lu Xuan to return .
When he saw Lu Xun carrying a pile of clothes out of the exclusive hotel, his heart sank .
He hadn’t forgotten what Fu Cao had said, that she would give away dozens of clothes if he ate DongPo meat . He thought that because the crystal nucleus in Lu Xuan’s hand was already gone, it was very unlikely that he had exchanged it with a crystal nucleus .
Lu Xuan didn’t even need anyone to open the door, he directly propped up the spanning door and flipped in .
Seeing Zhang Zhongmin, who was standing in the doorway waiting for him, Lu Xuan remembered what Fu Cao had said to him earlier
“The clothes Fu Cao sent?” Zhang Zhongmin gave a glance at the clothes he was carrying .
“En . ” Lu Xuan nodded .
Fu Cao had closed the door after Lu Xuan had gone out . Since it was getting dark, and now that the power was out, this velvety darkness of the night was even more unbearable for humans .
However, it had little to no effect on Fu Cao . She happily went back upstairs to lie on the bed, her spiritual power did not accurately catch onto Lu Xuan’s position .
Zhang Zhongmin’s face darkened as he looked at Lu Xuan, “You ate her plate of Dongpo meat?”
Lu Xuan smacked his lip and had a bit of a flashback . He wondered why Zhang Zhongmin was so critical of that plate of meat? Still, he nodded honestly .
His eyes darkened and Zhang Zhongmin roared angrily, ”Where are your ears!? Didn’t I tell you not to eat, NOT TO EAT ANYTHING SHE GIVES? Why did you still eat? Are you a starving ghost who’ll eat anything he is given . If not he’ll die, you…!!”
“……………………………… . . ” He felt his ear drums blasting . Lu Xun looked at Zhang Zhongmin: ”Why can’t you eat? Fu Cao is not an outsider, if it wasn’t for her I would have died a long time ago, how could you think that she will harm me?”
“She, Fu Cao has always exchanged grain only for crystal nuclei, and now she is suddenly giving it to you to eat it for free . Don’t you find it strange? And she even said she’d send us clothes as soon as we ate them, isn’t that even weirder, do you get it?”
“Lu Xuan, ah Lu Xuan, do you still have a brain or not?”
“By the way, how are you? There’s nothing uncomfortable, right or is there?” As he said that, Zhang Zhongmin looked at Lu Xu nervously and scanned him up and down to examine with great concern .
“I’m fine, Fu Cao’s Dongpo meat was very delicious . She only let you eat it today because it was her first time doing it and didn’t know how it tasted and just wanted you to try it . ” Lu Xuan looked at him .
“But you said you didn’t like the greasy stuff, so she gave it to me . I’ve eaten the restaurant’s Dongpo meat before, and it’s not at all as good as she makes it . Even now I can’t believe this was the first time she made it . ”
While saying that, Lu Xuan was still reminiscing .
His words were not just a mere compliment, but he meant what he said . It was the best Dongpo meat he had ever eaten in his life and though he ate it till he was full, Lu Xuan felt that if another plate was given to him, it could still settle cleanly in his stomach .
“…… . ” Zhang Zhongmin also felt that Fu Cao couldn’t possibly harm them, but the main thing was that Fu Cao’s actions today had been too strange . He couldn’t help but be vigilant and suspicious .
Although, Zhang Zhongmin still had some doubts about the truthfulness in Lu Xuan’s words . In the end, he still felt a little heartbroken hearing his tone .
