The dinner plates were put away.

When I looked again, I saw that the fifty or so food service windows were empty.

Li Zhitang retracted his gaze and slowly moved to the nearest window. He was too guilty to look the chef in the eye. "I'm not full yet. Can I have two more chicken legs?"

Chef: “No.”

Li Zhitang: “…”

That night.

In the Foreign Guest Building.

After waking up on the small bed in the room on the first floor, Chu Wei received bad news.

"It seems the manor's reserves have run out, and dinner has become limited supply!"

Li Zhitang took out two apples from his left trouser pocket, and took out two packs of wafers and a can of luncheon meat from his right trouser pocket. "But luckily I got some food from the medical team's office. Brother Chu, you can eat first."

At the same time, Mu Beian returned to the medical team’s office and found that the snacks he had eaten while reading novels had disappeared out of thin air: “?” A supernatural incident?

Chu Wei was not hungry, but was very interested in the sudden shortage of supplies in the manor.

"You mean that Li Chengchuan built a manor long before the end of the world that was not damaged by an earthquake, but he only stored food supplies for everyone that ran out after only two months?"

It was funny even to say this, not to mention Li Zhitang who was listening nearby.

Li Zhitang took a breath of cold air, incredulous, "You mean my brother, did he deliberately not let me bring you food?"

"Of course, I'm tired of being played with, so there's no need to support me anymore." Chu Wei said more bluntly.

No wonder he vowed at noon that he would regret it. This former financial sponsor is really a vindictive and ruthless guy.

"What should I do then?" Li Zhitang had no idea how to deal with the situation.

Chu Wei fell back on the bed and pulled the quilt over his cold body. "As long as you don't do anything unnecessary and calm down in a few days, I can leave the manor smoothly."

Li Zhitang bit his lip, obviously having the opposite opinion but not being able to speak out.

"What do you want to say?" Before seeing the guest off, Chu Wei gave the other party one last chance to speak.

Li Zhitang was still hesitant and whispered, "But Brother Chu, if you leave the manor like this now, won't it be dangerous?"

It’s certainly dangerous, but, “It’s better than starving to death here sooner or later, right?”

This time Li Zhitang didn't say anything. It was obvious that he couldn't agree with his brother abandoning Chu Wei and not giving him food.

He doesn't understand anything about love, but he knows a lot about eating. Brother, you are narrowing the path!

Chu Wei turned over and was about to say goodbye, but the lights in the room suddenly went out.

"Then Brother Chu, you should go to bed early. I'll go back first."

Li Zhitang was surprised that the light in the room suddenly went out, but he didn't think much about it and said goodbye. Before leaving, he didn't forget to make a promise, "I will definitely bring you food tomorrow morning!"

But after walking some distance from the reception building, Li Zhitang looked at the light on the ground in front of him that was obviously coming from the building behind him, and he subconsciously turned around to look at the building behind him.

On the third floor of the building, the three connected rooms were brightly lit, and people could be seen walking through the windows, but the first floor and other empty floors were pitch black.

Li Zhitang's eyes widened as he thought of something. His brother deliberately turned off the power to his ex-boyfriend just to disgust him?!

*

In the quiet night, the huge manor was peaceful and tranquil except for the patrol teams that passed by on time.

Outside the reception building.

A sneaky figure took advantage of the time when the patrol team passed by to run to a window on the first floor, pried open a crack in the window with his fingers, and took out a package from his arms and tried to stuff something through the gap.

But the gap was too small and he failed.

After looking back nervously, the man calmed down and turned back to continue prying at the window gap, but as soon as he stretched out his hand, he was met with a pale face behind the window.

Oh my god! The visitor’s heart almost jumped out of his throat.

"Are you, Qiao Feng?" Chu Wei opened the window and looked at the young man outside in surprise.

"...It's Xia Feng!" The young man wiped the cold sweat from his forehead and quickly handed over the bag in his hand, "There's food in it, it's still hot, eat it while it's hot, I have to go!"

After saying that, Xia Feng crouched down and quickly walked away along the bushes on the side of the road.

Chu Wei, who was standing a little higher, also saw the patrol team about to pass by in the distance. He held the glass window frame and looked at the bag on the windowsill in the moonlight for a few seconds. Finally, he picked up the bag and closed the window.

Sitting back on the crib, Chu Wei used his no longer flexible fingers and took some effort to untie the knot of the plastic bag.

Inside the plastic bag were two instant noodle buckets. The one labeled "braised beef" contained rice, while the one labeled "stewed beef with pickled cabbage" contained beef stewed with potatoes. Not only were the meals warm, but there was also a stainless steel spoon in the bag.

Chu Wei didn't understand why someone he had only met once would go against the orders of the manor boss and send him dinner.

But looking at the food in the instant noodle box and the apple biscuits on the small table next to him, Chu Wei couldn't deny that his nose was uncontrollably sour at this moment.

In a dimly lit hut.

The man sitting alone on the small bed kept his head down and remained silent for a long time. When the two instant noodle boxes on the bed stopped steaming, he finally rubbed his eyes with the back of his hand and picked up the spoon in the plastic bag.

The peaceful night passed quickly.

The second day arrived as scheduled.

Early in the morning, Li Zhitang joyfully pushed open the door of Chu Wei's room, and pulled out an unknown object wrapped in a short-sleeved shirt from under his long-sleeved jacket like presenting a treasure.

But without being asked, he took the initiative to put the food on the table and opened it, "Dangdangdang~ Today's breakfast is big meat buns, six, is that enough?"

Chu Wei noticed the teeth marks on the top bun skin in the plastic bag and looked at the suspect.

"I had no choice but to do this. Brother Chu, please don't mind." Li Zhitang also saw his teeth marks and blushed. "Eat the other food first."

Then he took out a box of milk from his coat and said embarrassedly: "I also had porridge this morning, but it's not easy to carry. But if you want to drink it, Brother Chu, I can think of a way tomorrow."

Chu Wei stood up with the help of the cot and wanted to go to the small bathroom next to it to wash up. "No, this is fine."

Since the parties involved had already spoken, Li Zhitang didn't know what to say anymore. He could only scratch his head and pull over the only chair in the room to sit down.

It was also at this time that he discovered a plastic bag beside the bed and two empty instant noodle boxes inside.

Chu Wei finished washing up and just as he came out of the bathroom, he received an accusation - "Who took advantage of my absence and broke in!"

Chu Wei was confused by the question, "What?"

"The evidence is all here, don't try to hide it from me!" Li Zhitang pointed directly at the criminal evidence - the instant noodle box beside the bed.

Following the direction of the finger, Chu Wei thought about the words and sat back on the small bed.

"Could it be that my brother has changed his mind and secretly came here to ask for forgiveness?" Li Zhitang couldn't help but guess.

Chu Wei sneered mockingly, "The person you are talking about is not that kind."
