Cave Refuge-Chapter 213 - 212 Six Dishes_1

Since childhood, Robinson William had been the perfect son in his parents’ eyes.

Handsome, obedient, no temper tantrums, no picky eating, athletic, serious about studying, and self-disciplined...

All these excellent qualities showed up in him.

However, ever since Ye Liuyun had memory, he had been constantly bullied by Robinson William.

With the arrival of Ye Liuyun, his younger brother, Robinson William seemed to have found a scapegoat. He wanted to try all the deeds he once dared not to do, and then push Ye Liuyun out as a shield.

Perhaps it’s because Robinson William had hidden it too well since childhood, or because he had falsely accused Ye Liuyun from an early age. In his parents’ or anyone else’s eyes, Ye Liuyun seemed less steady than his brother and was naughty since childhood.

Nevertheless, when outsiders bullied Ye Liuyun or even when his parents wanted to punish Ye Liuyun for his naughtiness, Robinson William would always step up to defend him.

In this way, the notion of Ye Liuyun being naughty and Robinson William being steady took root in their parents’ minds. So much so that later on, whenever anything happened at home, any wrongdoing would first be blamed on Ye Liuyun, and anything good would be first attributed to Robinson William.

This situation continued until Robinson William moved into a dormitory for college; but even after he left, and despite the absence of those pranks at home, their parents would say that Ye Liuyun had finally matured and become steady after Robinson William’s departure.

Therefore, even now, Ye Liuyun would remain very cautious when he was with Robinson William, for fear of being trapped by his brother if he was not careful.

Especially now that his brother had set his sights on the things he brought back, Ye Liuyun became more attentive, as the remaining items were his reserve for a future comeback.

But his act of patting Robinson William’s back just now had given Robinson William a good excuse.

Seeing the smile on Robinson William’s face after he let go, Ye Liuyun sighed helplessly, "Alright, stop talking. I’m treating today, all you can eat."

Seeing Ye Liuyun being so conscious, the smile on Robinson William’s face intensified, "Indeed, you’ve grown up and become sensible."

Ye Liuyun ignored what Robinson William was saying on the side and asked Dong Tianyu with a bitter smile, "How’s the situation on your side?"

Although it wasn’t explicitly mentioned, Dong Tianyu knew what Ye Liuyun wanted to ask: "My side is fine, not much impact."

Feeling that mentioning Dong Tianyu’s situation might upset Ye Liuyun, Robinson William had not brought it up. Therefore, Ye Liuyun only knew that the shelter on the Nameless Mountain hadn’t changed hands, and he wasn’t sure about the specifics.

After getting Dong Tianyu’s answer, the complex expression on Ye Liuyun’s face became more intense. In fact, it’s true that one fears one’s brother will suffer and that one fears one’s brother will drive a Range Rover.

"You go home first and see Uncle and Auntie. I’ll go cook. Come over to mine for dinner later."

The Taylor family had a strong backing, and since Ye Liuyun had also contributed quite a bit this time, he was allowed to set up his own tent here, making it his own place.

Dong Tianyu unloaded the large bag he was carrying on his back. After opening the bag, he casually pulled out a processed chicken, followed by two large bottles of soda and one bottle of Baijiu.

"I was just joking last time. We just ran out at home, so I brought them for you this time. Get some ice, let’s drink till we drop, and don’t let William steal our drinks. You handle the chicken however you want."

Seeing Dong Tianyu take these things out of his bag and the bag suddenly seem somewhat deflated afterward, Robinson William felt a bit embarrassed.

Robinson William was used to bullying his brother, but he knew how to be polite to outsiders.

Ye Liuyun, on the other hand, felt no embarrassment. He grabbed a soda bottle in each hand, then picked up the chicken with another, and said to Robinson William, "If you feel embarrassed, just let Tianyu put the drinks back. I don’t mind."

Upon hearing what Ye Liuyun said, Robinson William glared at his brother and picked up the bottle of liquor on the ground, "Ever heard of manners? Tianyu, I and Liuyun will go cook first. Be sure to come over at mealtime."

Dong Tianyu casually picked up the bag on the ground, "Don’t worry, I’ll be there before mealtime."

Once inside the tent, Father and Mother Dong were indeed not there, they must have gone out to play again.

The first thing to do when getting home was to check the supply box to make sure not much was missing. Once Dong Tianyu had verified that, he just closed it and put his bag on the box. His parents would know he had come today.

Having nothing to do, Dong Tianyu didn’t stay in the tent for long. Instead, he immediately left to help Ye Liuyun cook.

Despite having given Ye Liuyun a whole chicken earlier, Dong Tianyu did not go empty-handed again. He brought a pack of vacuum-sealed boneless chicken feet as a side dish.

When he arrived at Ye Liuyun’s tent, he found that Ye Liuyun was not inside. Because they used biogas as cooking fuel here, they could only cook in the public kitchen.

However, Dong Tianyu didn’t have to wait long. Ye Liuyun soon brought the cooked dishes back from the public kitchen.

Although it was said to be Ye Liuyun’s treat, the actual cooking was done by Robinson William. Ye Liuyun only had one specialty dish, stewed mixed vegetables. Besides that, he could only manage to cook other dishes until they were done.

Despite not being the head chef, Ye Liuyun went all out for this meal. Braised pork elbow, steamed fish, potato chicken chunks, stir-fried mushrooms with pork, five-spice peanuts, and boneless chicken feet.

Aside from the boneless chicken feet and potato chicken chunks provided by Dong Tianyu, the remaining four dishes were prepared by Ye Liuyun. The braised pork elbow was a store-bought vacuum-sealed semi-finished product, which was why it could be prepared so quickly.

The steamed fish was salted fish that had been pickled, the pork in the stir-fried mushrooms with pork was plentiful, but Dong Tianyu had no idea what meat was used until he tasted it.

Normally, six dishes for three people were just right, especially with such large portions of pork elbow and potato chicken chunks made with a whole chicken.

Knowing that the chicken Dong Tianyu gave was four to five pounds heavy, coupled with even more potatoes, Ye Liuyun had to use a large bowl to bring it out after it was cooked.

In addition, when Robinson William came back, he was carrying a large bucket of rice. It was not a small bucket, but the type used to deliver soup to schools.

Despite cooking the lunch himself, the smell made Robinson William swallow unconsciously.

Ye Liuyun felt the same. He didn’t care much when he lived in the private sanctuary as he could eat whatever he wanted. But after moving back here, he had surrendered most of the food he stored. The remaining food was not that much.

Although he said the remaining items were for a future comeback, every now and then he would prepare a good meal for his family, so he usually ate very sparingly.
