At this time, everyone discovered that in front of Ye Ziqiu's dining table, there was not only a suspicious glass jar emitting an unusual fragrance, but also a basket of figurines of strawberries???

Ye Ziqiu put down the "sandwich with extra fillings" in his hand with a little embarrassment, and even said in a way that was a bit too much, "Why are you looking at me? I bought this with my own money."

Liu Hun stood up and walked over, sniffed hard, and was absolutely sure that the smell was coming from the glass jar.

I subconsciously picked up the jar and opened it, and a familiar smell of spices hit my nose, including the aroma of pepper and cumin that I haven't tasted for a long time. There was a layer of red oil rolling in it, and the braised meat in pieces wrapped in sesame seeds looked fresh, fragrant and spicy.

He glanced at the bright red strawberries in the basket next to him, and regardless of Ye Ziqiu's attempts to stop him, he pinched one and took a bite. His eyes widened instantly, and the sweetness of the strawberries that he had not tasted for a long time filled his entire mouth. He hadn't felt that kind of fragrance on his teeth and cheeks for a long time.

Liu Hun's eyes lit up, and when he reached out to take the second one, he was opened by a slender palm.

I saw a whole basket of strawberries held in Ye Ziqiu’s arms.

"Zi Qiu, we are all good teammates, good buddies, and good brothers, right? When we have good things, we should share them together." Liu Hun licked his face and spoke in a flattering tone.

Ye Ziqiu snorted coldly and hugged the basket in his arms tighter without making a sound. "Good buddy, good brother? I don't know who stole my head in the last mission, and you were bragging to me about how many points you got. And the last time, you complained that what I made was comparable to an entire periodic table. And the time before that, you played with fire and almost burned down my room."

The more Liu Hun listened to his own "crimes", the smile on his face became more and more false.

Xu Qingzhi also asked curiously at this time: "Sister Ziqiu, did you buy this on the black market last night?"

Ye Ziqiu has always treated the two younger boys in the team, Xu Qingzhi and Xuyang, as his younger brothers. In addition, one of them is introverted and the other is extroverted. They have not yet been polluted by the secular world and do not have so much dirty stuff in their minds. Therefore, his attitude towards Xu Qingzhi is completely different from that towards Liu Hun.

"Well, I bought it from a small vendor when we separated last night." As she spoke, she waved to him and generously gave Xu Qingzhi two egg-sized strawberries.

Xu Qingzhi looked up somewhat flattered, but his attention was soon attracted by the strawberries in his hand.

The egg-sized strawberries not only exuded a fresh fragrance, but were also bright in color and plump in size. The leaves on the strawberries were still emerald green, indicating that they had just been picked. Unlike the strawberries he had purchased on the black market before, which had been sprayed with pesticides to preserve their freshness, the strawberries in front of him reminded him of the chocolate strawberries he had bought in the past at a large supermarket for 128 yuan a box.

Ye Ziqiu was not a stingy person. She quickly turned around and went back to her room, took out some of the fruits she had bought last night and distributed them to everyone. Even though she was angry with Liu Hun, she still gave him a big apple.

Geng Zimo looked at the heavy apple in his palm. Its weight, size and the fruity aroma seemed to be of a different species from the apples that the supply and marketing cooperative had previously sold for twenty cents each.

“Can the batch of apples currently grown by the institute meet this quality control?”

Liu Hun immediately shook his head, "It's difficult. Yesterday morning, Lao Zhang from the Self-Defense Force just gave me one. It tasted bitter and was terrible." He couldn't resist the fragrance and took a bite of the apple. In an instant, the crisp flesh and juice filled his taste buds. He continued, "Even so, we have to make it the focus product of the next trade show."

"The same goes for these strawberries. Last time I spent 200 points to buy a basket of strawberries, and they were not even half the size of these in my hand." Xu Qingzhi also quickly agreed.

Fang Tang, a foodie, was biting a big apple in his hand, making a "crunch" sound. He smiled and nodded as he ate. "Zi Qiu, this is delicious. I'll buy more next time."

"Zi Qiu, what kind of meat is this? It smells so good."

Liu Hun continued to come closer in a flattering manner, and Ye Ziqiu immediately stood up and personally pushed the can of braised meat in his hand in front of his boss.

"Boss, this guy's cooking skills are pretty good. This meat doesn't taste like mutton to me. You can try it."

Chen Yanxi doesn't like to eat the meat of mutant animals. According to Fang Tang, who has known him the longest, it's because he doesn't like the smell. So even after working together for so long, they have rarely seen Chen Yanxi eat any mutant animals. Even canned pickled meat is not to his taste.

So in everyone's impression, Chen Yanxi is not only cold-tempered, but also has a very bland and simple diet. Sometimes it even seems that he is incompatible with the people around him, as if he is from another world.

Chen Yanxi usually takes off his mask in the villa. No emotion can be seen on his cold, handsome face, but the smell from the glass can vaguely reminds him of someone in his memory after being locked down for a long time.

When I was in the orphanage, old man Zhang in the kitchen who always hummed opera in a hoarse voice also liked to sit under the locust tree at the entrance of the orphanage when the sun was setting. The old radio played the song "Beat Yan Song: Emperor Jiajing Sitting on the Throne and Ignoring State Affairs".

Old man Zhang would keep humming, "There is a traitor in the court named Yan Song, who shouldn't have killed Yang Jisheng, shouldn't have killed General Ma, lift up your robe and lead your army forward..."

Old man Zhang has been a widower all his life. He has a weird personality and doesn't like to socialize with others, but he is very kind to the children in the orphanage. He often secretly buys snacks or ice cream for the children. He also has a unique skill in braising meat, and the braised meat is tender, fresh and fragrant. There is even a head chef of a six-star hotel who specially hired Old man Zhang to be the chef in the hotel. Unfortunately, Old man Zhang is used to freedom and doesn't want to be constrained by a nine-to-five job.

In the orphanage, Old Man Zhang's cooking skills were not passed on to his children, and he never took in any apprentices during his lifetime. However, he once showed his skill of braising meat in front of two little kids.

Chen Yanxi picked up the chopsticks and picked up a piece of meat, his cold brows slightly frowned, and soon the second piece of meat went into his mouth.

At that moment, I seemed to be back in my childhood in the orphanage.

"It tastes good. We can buy some more tonight." Chen Yanxi had unknowingly picked up the third piece of braised meat in his hand.

Ye Ziqiu's lips trembled slightly. She actually wanted to say that you didn't eat all the canned food...

But the next moment he frowned and said, "I don't know if the young boss will be here tonight."

"Did you buy all of them at the same stall?" Geng Zimo was curious about the background of the person who could bring such things to the black market. Logically speaking, there would be no problem with the sales of such things, so it was impossible for them to have to be sold on the black market, unless the seller had some unspeakable secrets, or did not want to cause trouble for himself, so he chose to make quick money on the black market.

Ye Ziqiu stuffed a strawberry into her mouth and mumbled, "Well, yes, a skinny little boss. Oh, no, it should be a very interesting boss." A hint of amusement flashed across the beauty's eyes. She looked at everyone and said with a smile, "I think everyone has seen him last night."

Xuyang, who had remained silent, hesitated for a moment before speaking: "Is it the man who killed the demon last night?"

This sentence immediately caused everyone to fall into a strange silence. In the end, Liu Hun sneered and said, "It was just an accident."

"Not necessarily. To be able to sell this kind of product and escape unscathed from last night's melee, I think... he is not an ordinary person." When Geng Zimo was sniping the group of human traffickers last night, he noticed that the short man was calm and unhurried from beginning to end. Even his panic at the end was probably just pretend.

"Well, who cares who he is? Anyway, I'm going to buy all the canned braised meat tonight. I've been eating so much meat these past two years that I've almost forgotten what a pig looks like."

"Brother Liu Hun, how do you know this must be pork?" Xu Qingzhi asked curiously.

Liu leaned back, looking very arrogant. "Didn't I tell you that my family used to have several pig farms? I'm not sure about other meats, but I can tell the taste of pork from ten meters away. I watched pigs at the age of three, fed them at the age of five, and slaughtered them at the age of twelve. I'm not exaggerating."

Just as Liu Hungang finished his boastful speech, a loud "boom" suddenly sounded outside.

Liu Hun's brows flashed with anger, and he jumped up and went to the balcony. "Damn it, we can't do construction in the middle of the day. Do these people understand?"

The construction team outside has been working for several days. They have always followed strict working hours and generally do not work at noon or at night. But I don't know what happened today, but there was suddenly a commotion outside.

When I looked over, I saw that a wall that had been built a few days ago had just been torn down again. A group of people were standing there discussing something, and there seemed to be a young girl standing among the group of men.

When Gu Tongwan arrived at the villa area, it was already nearly afternoon.
