#692 - Chapter 692 I am your woman?

Gurgle, gurgle~~~

The sound of food tumbling and boiling echoed in a room within the Yangcheng branch base.

A rich aroma was spreading, making everyone who smelled it salivate.

This was the rest station for the Green Source combat unit. After completing a day's mission, Zhong Yu decided not to rush back to Green Source headquarters tonight, but to stay here for another night.

He also brought the old acquaintance he met in the evening here to enjoy dinner tonight.

Soon.

The ingredients in the pot were cooked, and one of the team members skillfully used a large spoon to distribute food to each member.

There were two dishes today.

One was chicken stewed with potatoes.

The other was green vegetables and tofu stewed with vermicelli.

The vegetables were specially supplied to combat troops from the base headquarters, and the chicken was just frozen stock.

As the leader of a team performing high-intensity physical tasks, Qin Jin naturally wouldn't treat them poorly.

Although there were only two dishes.

All the Green Source members were very satisfied.

Paired with a pot of rice, their meals during business trips were generally enough to fill their stomachs.

To reiterate, Chief Qin Jin rarely mistreated those who worked for him.

These combat personnel might not eat so well at the base, but their standards on business trips were the envy of those staying at headquarters.

"Here, this is your share and your aunt's share."

Zhong Yu personally picked up two large bowls and walked to Zhang Yunya's corner, handing her the freshly served and still warm dinner.

Zhang Yunya's aunt looked like a woman in her early fifties, but it was clear that she had difficulty moving her legs and usually sat in a wheelchair.

"This... this isn't right, is it? I have my own food, we can take care of dinner ourselves."

Zhang Yunya's face was slightly red, and she looked at the food Zhong Yu handed over with reluctance, forcing herself to reject this temptation.

Today, Zhong Yu had already rescued her and her aunt from those people, and beheaded that President Lu in front of everyone!

It was already a great kindness!

Without his rescue, she could imagine that she would most likely be taken advantage of!

So she was embarrassed to accept the seemingly excellent food in front of her.

How could it not be good!?

There were actually vegetables and meat!

And the portion was definitely enough for an adult to eat their fill!

In this world, everyone knew what it meant to be full.

"Just take it! If you don't eat, your aunt still needs to eat!"

Zhong Yu had a strong smile on his face. This kind of rejection was useless. In the face of absolute hunger, they weren't strangers. They should eat what they needed to eat.

"Hello Auntie, I am Yunya's colleague. It's a coincidence that we met again today. You are also my elder, so please accept this dinner!"

"It's really nothing. We are not the same as the survivors outside, uh... you could say we eat like this every day."

There was no need to specifically give Yunya any soothing words. Zhong Yu immediately found a breakthrough from the side.

This aunt of Yunya's seemed to be just an ordinary woman, and she quickly became friendly under Zhong Yu's sweet words.

And she could see that this man seemed to be interested in her niece, and she heard that they knew each other before, plus his terrifying background was visible to the naked eye, so she didn't need to ask what to do.

In a few minutes, Yunya also accepted the dinner given by Zhong Yu under the persuasion of her aunt.

Captain Zhong returned to his seat contentedly and started eating.

Yunya held the warm rice and dishes in her hands, and an extremely subtle feeling spread throughout her body.

From childhood to adulthood, she had never encountered this feeling before.

Since this was the case, she would no longer resist her body's protests.

Eat!

The moment the first bite of food entered her mouth, she tasted an unimaginable deliciousness!

Anyone who had been hungry for a year and usually relied on unappetizing or tasteless food to barely survive would have a feeling of being alive again when they ate food made with various seasonings!

So delicious!!

She forgot what it meant to be a lady, and focused all her attention on the bowl of food in her hands.

Zhong Yu on the other side just smiled and didn't say anything.

Normal people would be conquered by the Green Source troop's meals.

With Green Source's size, only the combat troops could eat this level of food, and only when they had high-intensity missions.

Everyone was silently eliminating their respective foods. Except for the occasional sound of chewing, almost no one spoke or chatted, and they were all focused on tasting the delicious food in their hands.

It wasn't until more than ten minutes later that everyone finished eating and went back to their designated places to rest.

Yunya and her aunt were also full.

They had almost forgotten the feeling of being full for a long time.

"How about it, want to chat? My old colleague?"

Captain Zhong walked to Yunya's side familiarly and said.

The aunt had already been taken to another place to rest by another Green Source member after dinner, leaving only Zhong Yu and the newly rescued Yunya in this room dedicated to eating.

He wanted to hear the detailed experiences of this old classmate.

The night can sometimes be very boring, and chatting with someone you once knew can also be a different kind of enjoyment.

Yunya looked at this former male colleague. After a year, he had completely changed. Apart from having the same face as before, it was impossible to associate the two as the same person.

Of course.

At this time, she couldn't ask for more than Zhong Yu's invitation to chat.

Without any transition, the two quickly entered their respective narratives.

For a long time.

Zhong Yu learned how this former female colleague he had a crush on had spent the past year.

Very commonly, after getting off work, she avoided the impact of the mutated creatures that night. Most of her family members lost contact after the communication was cut off, leaving only a relative with physical disabilities living with her.

Later, relying on her certain survival skills and common sense, and relying on a certain amount of supplies and food, she spent the cold winter at home, and struggled all the way to this year before going out to find a new way to survive after running out of food.

Yunya didn't even hide the secret of her leg evolution.

It was unnecessary.

Otherwise, there was no way to explain how a woman could survive in this world until now, and still support a burden.

"You've had a hard time this year! You've worked hard!"

Knowing Yunya's experience, Zhong Yu couldn't help but feel respect. A woman not only often went out to find food, but also had to support her relatives. There must be many hardships that Yunya hadn't mentioned.

And she was still a leg evolver!

It was really rare.

After the apocalypse for so long, apart from the few evolvers in the base, he hadn't really encountered many other lucky ones.

Perhaps there were some, but most of them were carefully hidden.

"It's okay! You can follow me from now on! I'll go back to the base tomorrow, and you can go back there to live with me in the future!"

Zhong Yu directly made the decision without even asking for the other party's opinion!

Was there any need to ask!?

Was there anyone who didn't want to go to Green Source?

Probably not, right?

"......"

Yunya was silent for a while, and was still a little unresponsive to this old colleague's quick transition.

She didn't agree or refuse, but instead asked a question that she had been wanting to ask.

"Why did you say I was your woman before?"
