Volume 4: Spacetime Singularity Chapter 35 Wisdom Teeth Extraction
Fang Cheng's kitchen is not very big. If it is filled with food during festivals, there will be no place to put your feet.
But now there is almost no , and the old dust accumulated on the tiles is all exposed to the sight of people in the house, making the whole house look very unclean.
Fang Cheng opened the cabinet next to the stove, and inside the cabinet was a red plastic bucket for storing rice. After opening the lid of the bucket, he found that there was still a lot of food inside, which seemed to indicate that he had not had time to take the rice with him when he was evacuated.
But most people don’t bring rice.
He scooped half a bowl of rice into a small steel bowl, rolled up his sleeves and placed the bowl under the faucet, but after turning on the faucet, no water came out.
Only then did he realize that there must be no water in the house, so he turned around and went out to get some water from the water dispenser. When he walked to the door, he happened to run into his childhood sweetheart who was walking into the kitchen.
She held the cat in one hand and a glass jug filled with purified water in the other.
"Are you out to get some water? I've already got it for you."
As she spoke, she handed the kettle to Fang Cheng's empty hand.
"Okay, okay, thank you so much. Do you think this rice is enough?"
"I can't tell how much the rice is without cooking it. You decide."
Fang Cheng went back to the sink and started washing the rice. Since water was precious, he washed the rice extremely carefully.
No, isn’t there water inside the alien spaceship?
But forget it, as I'm not sure if unfolding the bracelet at home will cause the house to collapse.
After washing the rice twice, Fang Cheng skillfully found the oil and salt, mixed them with the rice, then added a little water and put it on the counter to soak.
"Am I getting in your way here?"
It's a bit crowded for two people to stand in the kitchen.
"It's okay, but you can go out and watch TV while waiting..."
"watch TV……"
No, there's no electricity now.
It's really boring to stay outside without being able to watch TV or play with your phone. No wonder she wanted to come in with the cat.
"I really have nothing to do right now, is there anything I can do to help you?"
"It seems that there is indeed no... If you just want to help, you can take out the remaining meat in the refrigerator and cut it into strips. I am just cutting the preserved eggs..."
At this moment, Fang Chengcai realized that he didn't know whether there were any preserved eggs left at home. If not, he could only make lean meat porridge.
Ning Yu'an put the cat on the floor outside the kitchen, closed the door, walked to the refrigerator in the dining room, bent down and opened the freezer door.
Inside was a large pool of water and slightly dark red meat.
She pinched a corner of the meat with both hands and started walking towards the kitchen door. At this time, the fat cat had already run away and no one knew where it went.
Before, it liked to look around in the kitchen while cooking, but after being disciplined several times, it stopped going there. Fang Cheng's father said that he could clearly see the dissatisfaction in its eyes.
“How wide should I cut it?”
"Just cut it into strips as thick as chopsticks."
As Fang Cheng spoke, he was cutting the preserved eggs he had just taken out of the cupboard. There were exactly two left, enough for a meal.
Ning Yu'an picked up the kitchen knife very clumsily. Only then did she realize that the meat was only melted on the outside, while the inside was still a bit hard. It was quite difficult to cut.
"Do you want to cut it all off?"
There is a pause after each word because I am exerting force with my hands.
"It's all right. It depends on how much you want to eat."
When he finished saying this, Fang Cheng had already cut the preserved egg into even small dices. He put the knife back on the rack and wanted to cut some more green onions. Turning around, he saw the girl next to him using both hands to chop the small piece of pork with great effort.
"Why is this piece of meat so slippery...it's too hard to cut."
"How about I cut this? You can go chop the green onions into chopped green onions, or you can boil the water first."
Actually, he should have boiled the water just now, but he hadn't cooked for a long time so he forgot the steps.
"If you can't light the fire, use the lighter in the cabinet on the right..."
"This looks simple, it shouldn't be impossible to hit it."
Fang Cheng didn't say anything else. He dipped the blade of the knife in water and began to quickly cut the piece of meat that had been tortured to pieces, trying his best to cut it into thin strips of the same size.
Ning Yu'an just lit the fire after he finished cutting.
"I quit. Go lie down on your bed for a while."
"That's fine. I'll call you when I'm done. You can go lie down on my parents' bed... My room is empty and must be quite dirty..."
Have I not been helpful at all?
Ning Yu'an looked at the chandelier on the bedroom ceiling and suddenly realized this.
It seemed that since they had just met again, the only thing she could do was to chat with Fang Cheng, and the rest of the time she just followed him around and watched him kill monster after monster.
She raised her arms above her head, looked at her fingers where the nail polish had been worn off, and began to recall involuntarily what had happened in the past.
She had taken it for granted that Fang Cheng took care of her since she didn't know when, as if she had been enjoying all the kindness with the privilege brought by the identity of "childhood sweetheart", although she had no idea where the source of this kindness came from.
The woman's intuition told her that this was not out of love at all, but more likely that Fang Cheng simply wanted to handle everything well, and taking care of her was just a part of his perfectionist life.
Old Asasi.
This one-sided dedication is very fragile, and she must figure out what Fang Cheng needs from her.
But she didn't have time to think about all this right now. Although the monster had been destroyed, the trauma caused by this disaster could not be healed in a short period of time, and she couldn't imagine what kind of difficult period the country would enter next.
In the tide of the times, every individual's wave seems so insignificant.
Thinking of this, she suddenly regretted getting . She had taken the initiative to approach him so many times before, so why did he get upset? However, it seemed that the two situations were different in nature, although she couldn't tell exactly how...
But can I really rely on these things to get a long-term stable relationship? If so, what kind of person would I be? But what can I offer him?
So that's how it is. I was actually angry with myself just now.
Thinking of this, she supported herself on the bed with her hands, sat up, and walked straight back to the kitchen.
"How's it going?"
"It's all ready, but the range hood can't be used now, so I can only use a low flame, so I may have to wait a little longer."
"I feel like I can't help much... I can only be taken care of by you every day."
"It's good that you can chat with me. At that time, you couldn't speak after having your wisdom teeth removed, and I felt a little uncomfortable not being able to hear your voice."
"You talk as if I talk a lot."
"That's not what I meant..."
"I was so exhausted when I had my wisdom teeth removed. The dentist told me that each of my teeth was like a paper..."
Fang Cheng smiled lightly when he heard this, and he realized that this was the first time he laughed since completing the experiment.
