Upon hearing Ning Shuangyu’s answer.
Gu Fei let out a sigh first.
Another beautiful girl had fallen into Lin Lang’s clutches.
Yet ironically.
They were all willing; Lin Lang hadn’t forced anyone.
They couldn’t even find a reason to blame him!
"Alright."
Lin Lang responded calmly, not surprised at all.
He never forced anyone.
But everything always went according to his plans.
Once someone experienced the feeling of controlling a power beyond nature, it was hard to stop.
They would just want more.
To become stronger!
"Pack up a bit, dinner’s ready... Hmm, if you don’t have clothes to wear, you can wear mine for now."
Lin Lang pointed at Ning Shuangyu’s chest.
Ning Shuangyu only then realized how her curves, accentuated by the tight bandages, stood out!
She hurriedly covered herself.
After Lin Lang left, Ning Shuangyu couldn’t help but mumble:
"Pervert! Wrapping me up like this on purpose! Not suitable for children!"
Gu Fei, standing by, said faintly:
"Well, actually, I wrapped you up like that, mainly afraid you’d feel too tight."
"Uh..."
The atmosphere instantly became awkward.
Gu Fei lowered her voice, asking softly:
"But speaking of which, yours is too big, is there some secret?"
Saying this, she couldn’t help but pinch it lightly.
Ning Shuangyu: "..."
But she replied honestly:
"I was born like this, but it wasn’t this exaggerated before. It was after I ate the Physique Fruit, my muscles became a bit tighter, so they looked bigger..."
Gu Fei couldn’t help but say enviously:
"Really, I want a Physique Fruit too..."
Ning Shuangyu lightly poked her chest and said:
"It’s not small either..."
...
Lin Lang certainly wouldn’t know.
A white-collar worker and a special agent.
In private, their conversation was so daring!
He took out breakfast for two from the Space and placed it on the dining table.
Then returned to the study.
Continuing to stare at the golden fruit.
Gu Fei took a coat from Lin Lang’s wardrobe and draped it over Ning Shuangyu.
Then helped her out to eat.
Upon reaching the dining room and seeing the food on the table, Ning Shuangyu was stunned—
Beef pancakes, meat sauce noodles, buns, eggs, milk...
She even felt it was somewhat unreal:
"Is this breakfast?!"
This is too luxurious!
Consider that.
During an apocalypse where resources are scarce, even the officials with impressive reserves ration strictly, ensuring they don’t compromise combatants’ health!
Breakfast often meant just bread and pickles; sometimes having an egg was a luxury!
But this treatment.
Almost rivals their leaders’!
Gu Fei, however, was used to it, moving a chair to help Ning Shuangyu sit, saying:
"Eat while it’s hot."
Ning Shuangyu swallowed hard, unable to help asking:
"At a time when resources are scarce, how do you manage to eat so well?"
Gu Fei smiled slightly and said:
"Lin Lang is special; as long as you listen to him, you needn’t worry about anything else."
How much resources does Lin Lang really have?
Enough for how many days?
Initially, Gu Fei worried about this problem.
But after spending a few days together, she realized Lin Lang was like a magician!
He was never seen cooking, yet when it was mealtime, a lavish feast would appear on the table!
No matter how much they ate, worry never showed on his face!
So Gu Fei stopped fretting over it.
If not for Lin Lang, she’d have starved to death long ago; each day she lived was a blessing.
So she only needed to live well.
She didn’t care where Lin Lang’s resources came from or how much he had.
Knowing too much might not be a good thing.
She’s smart and always knew that.
Gu Fei started eating.
Ning Shuangyu looked at the exquisite breakfast yet couldn’t commence eating for a while.
There was a strange feeling within her.
Out of a sense of duty as an official.
She couldn’t help but think of other residents in the building, they likely weren’t living this well?
They would be lucky to have food, let alone such a luxurious breakfast.
This standard of living, especially given the current situation, was too extravagant!
"Sister Gu Fei, if Lin Lang has plenty of resources... why not save a little and use the leftovers to help others? I believe many in this building are on the brink of starvation..."
After much hesitation, she couldn’t help but voice her concern to Gu Fei.
Gu Fei, hearing this, chuckled complexly, saying:
"Shuangyu, you’re too idealistic."
"Being helpful doesn’t always yield good results."
"Unless Lin Lang’s supplies can sustain them for life! Otherwise, it’s best not to start."
Lin Lang could easily help one person.
But once you start, there will be a second time.
Helping one will lead to helping another.
Until everyone needs Lin Lang’s assistance.
Until Lin Lang bears the responsibility of keeping them alive.
Until everyone assumes it’s their right!
But!
When Lin Lang can no longer help.
Their previous gratitude will quickly turn into resentment!
They will think Lin Lang failed his duty.
That he took resources that were rightfully theirs.
And they will blame him entirely for this disaster.
Human nature can never be tested.
Gu Fei casually uttered these words.
Ning Shuangyu fell silent after listening.
Her gaze gradually dimmed.
Previously, under her organization’s protection, she could follow her innate sense of justice, doing the right thing regardless of consequences.
And she assumed the world’s order should operate as such—
That what’s right must be done!
But now she understood it wasn’t so.
For instance.
Yesterday, she almost fell prey to insects.
She sought help from room 2201, yet they turned her away, told her to die far away...
This world.
Was never that simple.
Human nature wasn’t that beautiful either.
So, she began eating quietly, ceasing further conversation.
Gu Fei watched her with sympathy.
Little sister, it’s the end times now, and the ugliness of humanity you see is just the tip of the iceberg...
...
Today the rain was continuous.
Lin Lang sat in the study on an office chair.
Just opened his phone.
And discovered another friend request on WeChat.
Dream of Ginkgo:
[Brother Bu Lang, is it true you provide food and accommodation?]
The person’s avatar was an anime girl.
The nickname sounded quite fresh and artistic.
Maybe it’s a 2D anime girl?
Lin Lang felt intrigued and replied:
[Send a full-body photo without beautification, if it meets the criteria, food and lodging are provided]
Dream of Ginkgo:
[Alright, alright, you’re so eager, I’ve never sent such a photo to anyone before! So shy!]
A moment later.
Dream of Ginkgo:
[Picture]
Lin Lang looked eagerly.
Immediately, his vision went black!
[Ma Yinjiao]
[Appearance: 3/10]
[Recharge: 1 time]
[Loyalty: 1%]
[Return Multiplier: 0]
Oh, dear lord!
Lin Lang really thought the system overrated her with 3 points!
What anime girl, this was clearly an aunt—
Oily face, dark and fat, with a belly like she’s seven or eight months pregnant!
Wearing just a small bib all over!
And pouting with a peace sign, acting cute!
Lin Lang’s eyes almost got burned!
He dared not reply to this aunt.
Blocked her directly.
Quickly went on a video app to watch a few pig-slaughtering videos.
And finally calmed down.
