Apocalypse Foodie System: Watch Her Cook!-Chapter 185 - 180: You Look at Me, I Look at You
Tang Yiyi secretly observed Song Yunxiu from across, and after seeing his appearance clearly, she felt an inexplicable sense of disappointment. Previously, she had thought Song Yunxiu should have a good look due to his deep, pleasant voice that carried an indescribable charm. However, upon seeing him now, Song Yunxiu had an exceptionally ordinary face, the kind that would be unnoticeable in a crowd.
But upon closer inspection, Song Yunxiu had a very unique aura, making one feel that he wasn’t an ordinary person. Tang Yiyi thought to herself that this was probably the aura of a master, without giving it much thought. More than the person Song Yunxiu, she was more interested in the knife in his hand.
The knife’s blade was black and slender, without any gloss, looking very ordinary at first glance. But Tang Yiyi only needed one look to feel a strong sense of crisis in her heart, as if she was facing not a knife, but a fierce beast ready to devour people!
This seemingly ordinary knife was enveloped in a faint but fierce aura! Who knew what kind of background it had!
Instinctively, she averted her gaze, not daring to look more, and then she noticed the roots on the ground. Due to the roots breaking through the soil earlier, the ground had become bumpy, with scorch marks on it, and over a dozen segments of roots were scattered on the ground, enveloped in flames and silently burning.
These root segments were each four or five meters long and about the thickness of an arm. Their surfaces were not smooth but rather angular, with a rough texture. At this moment, they twisted along the ground, giving off a gruesome and terrible feeling, even when completely still.
As for the cut, it was unexpectedly smooth, and she remembered that Song Yunxiu had used only one strike! Tang Yiyi was shocked at heart, and unconsciously gazed at Song Yunxiu with admiration—not with flattery, not with favor, nor with eagerness, but a pure admiration for the strong and yearning for strength.
While she was observing Song Yunxiu, he was secretly observing her. Although he had secretly glanced at her through the firewall earlier, Tang Yiyi’s figure continually overlapped with a figure in his memory, compelling him to take more than a few looks.
When he clearly saw Tang Yiyi’s appearance, Song Yunxiu also felt a slight sense of disappointment. In his view, Tang Yiyi’s figure was almost perfect, but paired with an ordinary face, it seemed a bit discordant and regrettable. But he was not purely a face person, so he quickly suppressed the inappropriate thought in his heart.
But soon after, he was captivated by Tang Yiyi’s eyes. Her eye shape wasn’t particularly attractive, but they were black and bright, making her otherwise ordinary face seem a bit more charming. Moreover, seeing these bright and lively eyes, he couldn’t help but recall that chaotic night. At that time, his vision was affected by the drug’s effects, and with the light being too dim, he couldn’t see the other’s appearance clearly, only vaguely making out a blurry silhouette.
What impressed him most then was the person’s eyes. Those eyes were startlingly bright, like stars glistening in the night, dazzling but he never clearly saw what the other’s eyes looked like, nor did he see that person again.
Seeing Tang Yiyi with similarly bright eyes now, he became somewhat entranced as he watched.
Feeling the direct gaze from him, Tang Yiyi grew increasingly uneasy. The other party’s strength far surpassed hers, and if he suddenly attacked, she wouldn’t even have the ability to defend herself!
She didn’t know why Song Yunxiu was in a daze, but she instinctively broke his reverie: "Thanks for your help earlier. My brother is seriously wounded, and I need to take him back to the city for treatment, so I’ll be leaving first."
Song Yunxiu jerked back to awareness upon hearing this. Remembering his own purpose, he asked, "Wait! Did you see a Red Refining Snake earlier? I’m here to find it. If you’ve seen anything, please tell me."
Tang Yiyi looked at him in surprise, instantly understanding the situation! She was wondering why a Third-Level Red Refining Snake was not staying in the Third Level Hunting Zone but running to the First Level Hunting Area. So it was this person’s doing!
Grinding her teeth secretly, she initially didn’t want to tell Song Yunxiu but then remembered Luo Sheng and others who escaped, so she said, "The Red Refining Snake was here, but it chased someone and ran off. I don’t know where it went afterward."
Song Yunxiu immediately asked, "Did you see which direction it escaped to?"
Tang Yiyi directly pointed in the direction where the Red Refining Snake left: "That way. If you are going to chase it, you’d better hurry. This is a First Level Hunting Area, and who knows what might happen if it’s too late."
Song Yunxiu thanked her and saw that she had already helped Pang Zhi up, his plump body leaning against her like a dead weight. Seeing this scene, Song Yunxiu inexplicably felt a little annoyed, but couldn’t interfere, so he could only hold it back silently. However, as he saw Tang Yiyi about to leave, without thinking, he asked, "What’s your contact number?"
"Huh?" Tang Yiyi was surprised, simultaneously looking at Song Yunxiu vigilantly. She didn’t expect him to ask that; after all, they were just strangers meeting by chance. Was there any need to stay in contact? But considering Song Yunxiu’s strength, Tang Yiyi hesitated for a moment before giving her contact number.
She provided the contact number of her present identity, just because she didn’t plan to use this identity for long. If Song Yunxiu turned out to be a problem, she could simply abandon this identity.
Song Yunxiu silently memorized it and nodded to her: "Your brother seems to be seriously injured. You should take him back to the city for treatment; I’ll contact you later." After speaking, his figure flashed, speeding away like lightning.
Seeing his speed, Tang Yiyi was once again astonished. Only speed superpower users had such speed!
Soon, Song Yunxiu’s silhouette disappeared. Tang Yiyi glanced at the nearby mutant beasts, seeing they were all dead. Thinking for a bit, she couldn’t bear to waste them and collected all the corpses, not even sparing the roots on the ground. Then she hurriedly returned to the war vehicle with Pang Zhi. 𝘧𝓇ℯ𝑒𝓌𝑒𝑏𝓃𝘰𝘷𝘦𝘭.𝒸ℴ𝓂
The war vehicle wasn’t parked far away, and fortunately, there was no further trouble. Once back, Pudding removed the protective shield. Without the shield’s concealment, the war vehicle became exposed. Inside the vehicle, Tang Yuan was already impatiently waiting. Upon seeing Tang Yiyi, he was almost moved to tears. But when Tang Yiyi opened the rear car door to support Pang Zhi inside, Tang Yuan instantly frowned—it was unbearably stinky!
Tang Yiyi’s mask had an air purification function, filtering out the odor, so she didn’t smell a thing. However, Tang Yuan had no mask and was highly sensitive to smells, making such suffering unbearable!
He quickly found the source of the stench and couldn’t help but glare viciously at Pang Zhi, his fondness for Pang Zhi dropping rapidly, instantly labeling him as "Smelly Uncle"! (To be continued.
