Chapter 183 What are you going to do to my purple mushroom?
Is the zombie the point? The point is Dad! Mushroom didn't understand, but Mushroom decided to reluctantly coax this shoveler.
"Then tell me, who should I find as my dad... I won't find a zombie anymore, okay? Why are you hitting me..." That's so mean, if I hit her umbrella again, she'll start making a scene.
"I'm not looking for anyone." Mr. Zombie thought coldly. In this house, he could tolerate harmless little zombies and vines that he could crush at any time, but he could not tolerate a zombie riding on his head and acting arrogantly!
Ha, being the father of a silly boy is just being his father, isn't it?
Don't even think about it.
Mr. Zombie hardened his stance, ignoring Meng Xiaoyou's protests, grabbing her by the scruff of the neck, and heading to the "agent" in the base. He shook his mushroom and said, "Open the space, pay the rent!"
He hardened his stance, and the cowardly mushroom cowered, letting out a pitiful whimper before opening the spatial portal.
They didn't have crystal cores, so they could only exchange food for rent. However, after leaving Pei Sinian, Mushroom was kidnapped and had no chance to stock up on supplies. The resources in her space were only enough for her food and clothing. The largest base in B City had very high prices, and houses were rented for a minimum of one month.
She spent almost all of her money just to be able to stay for a month.
This was obtained by Mr. Zombie, who had an otherworldly handsome face, through a combination of threats and bargaining.
The mushroom was heartbroken. Even in its sleep, the purple mushroom caps inside the space were affected, twitching and swaying. It stopped blowing bubbles, couldn't sleep soundly, and its white stems all folded up, hidden by its cap.
Pei Sinian noticed the change in the purple mushroom and asked calmly, "What's wrong with this mushroom?"
Meng Xiaoyou was heartbroken: "She's fine, she's perfectly fine, she's just a poor girl."
She spent so much on food rations just to buy a room for one month!
Actually, it's not that she can't do without the big bed; she still needs food to survive.
Pei Sinian remained calm: "It's just food. We'll collect it once you're cured of the poison."
Mushroom was not comforted. Seeing that Pei Sinian's attitude had softened, she mustered up her courage and pointed, "You don't know the cost of firewood, rice, oil, and salt until you're in charge of the household."
"Would you like to add ham to your instant noodles today?"
Mushroom suddenly changed the subject: "I want it!"
Pei Sinian, expressionless, dragged her to the rented apartment. She didn't have to walk the whole way herself, sighing and saying, "Don't drag me, I want to be carried."
Mr. Zombie didn't say anything, but changed his posture.
This house has two bedrooms and a living room, which is considered a luxury in the post-apocalyptic world. The B City base has water and electricity supply, so there is no need to worry about basic living problems.
Pei Sinian skillfully started cooking noodles, while Meng Xiaoyou held the space bubble, exposing all the edible and delicious things inside to his sight, so that he could take them out with just a reach.
Pei Sinian noticed her little scheme and reached out while putting out the seasoning packet.
Sure enough, her dark eyes lit up, and the tuft of hair on her head suddenly stood up.
He deliberately didn't take what she wanted to eat, but instead poked at the purple mushroom inside.
She jumped, quickly hugging the space bubble tightly, her face wary. "What are you going to do to my purple mushroom?"
Ugh, forget about the other mushrooms, why are they targeting her real body!
Afraid that he would eat her, Meng Xiaoyou took out a sausage and a few meatballs, threw them into the pot, and then ran away. She diligently washed the dishes and sat down at the living room table to eat.
It only takes a few minutes to cook instant noodles. Soon, the man came out with a basin and immediately saw the little idiot, chin in hand, crying for food.
Everything seemed to have returned to how it was back in the library, the only difference being that back then she was terrified of him, but now... her fear of him was so perfunctory.
When he's fierce, she cowers; when he changes his attitude even slightly, she perks up. Just like now, Meng Xiaoyou, chin in hand, complains, "You're so slow!"
The noodles only took less than ten minutes to cook, so why is it considered slow?
Pei Sinian pretended not to hear, put the basin on the table, skillfully snatched her bowl and chopsticks, filled them up, and put them back.
Meng Xiaoyou blew on it and accidentally blew out a string of bubbles. She quickly fanned her hands to get rid of the bubbles.
Only then did he lower his head and obediently eat the noodles. Even if they were very hot, he would only breathe on them to warm them up, and he wouldn't smear the noodles.
Pei Sinian caught the bubbles she exhaled in his hand. The force of the bursting bubbles only made his palm itch, and then they seeped into his skin and disappeared.
After Meng Xiaoyou had eaten and drunk her fill, he used his water-based supernatural abilities to wash her up before letting her return to his spatial dimension.
Meng Xiaoyou clutched her stomach, let out a comfortable sigh, and tried to justify herself: "Actually, I'm not that greedy."
"It's the food you made that I haven't had in a long time." Seeing that he was shoveling dirt and cooking for her, Mushroom happily coaxed herself and reluctantly stopped arguing about him hitting her forehead.
"Hmm!" Pei Sinian tore off the bandage on his wrist.
“Chirp, chirp, chirp~!”
Pei Sinian released the little vine, placed it on the table, and pressed his slender fingers against its little red cap. "How to detoxify? Don't talk about trivial things."
The little vine, which had originally intended to pounce on Meng Xiaoyou, could only tremble under his fingertips.
"Chirp~"
Meng Xiaoyou sat up straight and took the initiative to translate, "It said that the poison in my body was accidental. It only poisons people and has never cured them before, so it doesn't know how to cure it."
The little vine seemed a little guilty as it said this, wriggling nervously as if afraid Meng Xiaoyou wouldn't want it.
Pei Sinian rested one hand on his knee and lightly rubbed the table with the other, his indifferent voice sounding like a final judgment.
"So, you're worthless?"
The little vine trembled, letting out a mournful chirping sound that was heartbreaking to hear and tearful to see. Meng Xiaoyou felt a pang of heartache as she watched. "Be gentle, don't crush it."
Pei Sinian remained noncommittal: "This little thing utterly crushed all the zombies in Gong County."
Meng Xiaoyou: "That won't work either. It called me 'Mom' before. As humans often say, in a mother's eyes, no matter how capable her child is, she is still a child."
“It didn’t even call me Dad.” Pei Sinian remained unmoved.
The crystal core atop the little vine glowed, as if it had been blessed with a long-awaited rain, and began to twist wildly.
"Chirp!"
Father!
Pei Sinian, who couldn't understand what the plants were saying, seemed to sense something, as if he had radar installed on his body. "Shout again?"
"Chirp chirp~!"
Daddy! My dear father! My dear father!
Meng Xiaoyou watched as Pei Sinian, who had just been cold-blooded and ruthless, visibly melted away from his icy expression.
Her eyes widened in disbelief.
Wow, does calling out "Dad" really have such a magical effect?
Suddenly, the mushrooms began to stir...
