I'm Hoarding for the Apocalypse - Chapter 359

359 Like a Mannequin

The glass of the preservation cabinet had been polished until it was shiny and reflective. Inside, there were all kinds of delicate and expensive ingredients that would easily spoil if left outside. Du Yue walked to the fridge and opened the door. She saw that the fridge was also filled with all kinds of fruits and vegetables. There were actually fish and prawns raised in tanks at the bottom. The fresh fish and prawns were full of vitality and were swimming freely in the water.

Du Yue looked at it for a while and slowly closed the refrigerator door. As expected, no matter the era, the power of capital was always strong. It was because she had an interspace that she could eat better than others, but she also had to be careful, afraid of being discovered by others. However, for someone like An Wu, he showed his advantages openly. They really could not compare!

Du Yue sighed silently and began to roll up her sleeves. With so many good ingredients, she had to show off today! Du Yue played with her sleeves as she discussed the menu with He Xing. The ingredients were plentiful. The two of them planned to cook four meat dishes, three vegetable dishes, and a soup. Previously, when An Wu said that Lu Xun’s mission was only to guard one person, and the two of them only needed to cook for one person every day, Du Yue had a guess in her heart that this person was very likely Xia Ju.

Xia Ju was imprisoned by An Wu previously, and Du Yue and He Xing had no chance of coming into contact with her. Today was a good opportunity. Originally, Du Yue thought that it would be enough to see Xia Ju and confirm the doubts in her heart. She did not expect to have an unexpected gain. An Wu had said before that they could make more food. Other than the food for Xia Ju, the two of them and Lu Xun could eat the rest. In that case, they could openly improve their food for lunch today.

!!
They also wanted to eat the food, so they naturally could not fool around. He Xing’s culinary skills had long surpassed his master’s after years of training. It was not tiring for a man and a woman to work together. The two of them cooked in an orderly manner. In less than two hours, a set of seven dishes was ready. They also steamed a pot of rice. The rice was made from high-quality northeastern rice. As soon as the lid of the rice cooker was opened, the fragrance of the rice entered their noses.

Du Yue took out two small bowls of rice and placed the seven dishes and soup on the dining cart. She covered the remaining dishes and then pushed the dining cart out with He Xing.

She had just left the kitchen and did not know where to go. They saw Lu Xun walking over from the end of the corridor, waving at the two of them as he walked. After approaching him, Lu Xun said, “I know where it is. I’ll take you there.”

Du Yue did not find Lu Xun’s timely appearance strange at all. There were a lot of surveillance cameras installed on this floor, including the kitchen. An Wu could see all their movements on the other end of the surveillance cameras.

Seeing that they had prepared the dishes, it was very normal for Lu Xun to come over and bring them over in advance.

Lu Xun brought them to the door of a room and knocked lightly. After getting An Wu’s permission, Lu Xun turned around and said to the two of them, “Du Yue, you can send the food in yourself. He Xing needs to stay. Captain An said that men are not allowed to enter this room.”

Men were not allowed to enter? Then what about Captain An? Doubt flashed through Du Yue’s mind, but she did not show it on her face. She nodded calmly and immediately took the dining cart from He Xing’s hands and pushed it in.

This room was also silver-white, but it was carefully hung with some soft white gauze curtains, which made it seem a little soft and romantic. It was not as cold as the other rooms. As soon as she walked in, Du Yue knew that she had guessed correctly. This must be Xia Ju’s residence.

Du Yue continued to push the dining cart inside. When she passed by the curtain, she saw a man and a woman sitting inside. They were looking at each other but neither of them spoke. An Wu was facing Du Yue. When he saw her, he nodded at her. The person sitting opposite An Wu with her back facing him was most likely Xia Ju. Although Du Yue had yet to see Xia Ju’s face, she knew that she must be pretty just by looking at her graceful back and her soft, long, silver-white curly hair.

Du Yue continued to walk forward and stopped the dining cart beside the dining table. When she brought the dishes to the table, she naturally saw Xia Ju’s appearance. She was very similar to He Xing. Her skin was cold, fair, and flawless. She had a pair of big deer eyes, a small and exquisite nose tip, and red and full lips. She looked a little like a Barbie doll. What was rare was that not only did she have beautiful silver-white hair, but her pupils were also silver.

Her appearance was really exquisite, but there was no expression on her face, making her look like a mannequin.
