The two of them dragged the remaining meat back to the shelter. Under the light, Xu Meng Lan could finally see Zhao Yu’s condition clearly.
The blood marks all over his body, she couldn’t help but exclaim.
“Are you okay?!”
Zhao Yu looked down and was startled by his appearance, he was drenched in blood.
But he knew that most of them were just scrapes. They just looked scarier than they actually were.
“It’s fine, let’s deal with this meat first.”
Zhao Yu waved his hand, signaling Xu Meng Lan to handle the pork while he headed to the bathroom.
“Sister, is he okay?”
Xu Xiu Lan was also alarmed by Zhao Yu’s condition and asked hesitantly.
“He should be fine…”
Xu Meng Lan replied uncertainly.
The poison she administered, why hadn’t it taken effect?
But now wasn’t the time to worry about that. She asked Xu Xiu Lan for help, and the two began processing the pork.
By the time Zhao Yu finished his bath and came out, the pork had been cut into pieces and stored in a natural cold storage.
“Honey, is this piece enough for dinner?”
Xu Meng Lan asked, holding up a small piece of pork.
“How could that be enough?!”
Zhao Yu glanced at it, and realizing it would not even suffice for him alone, he grabbed three more pieces, “Cook all of these.”
“All? Isn’t that too much?”
Xu Meng Lan was surprised. So much meat wouldn’t last long if cooked all at once.
“Just do it.”
Cooking was beyond Zhao Yu’s expertise. He left it to Xu Meng Lan and went back to his room to treat his wounds.
After treating all his injuries and emerging from the room, dinner was ready in the kitchen.
On the dining table were three plates of stir-fried pork dishes, along with a bowl of rice.
The two sisters stood to the side, watching intently as Zhao Yu sat down.
“Sit down, aren’t you going to eat?” Zhao Yu asked.
The sisters gulped, and Xu Xiu Lan hesitated before whispering, “Brother-in-law, can we eat too?”
Zhao Yu smiled slightly, saying, “You and Su Lan are at an age where you need to grow. You need lots of protein. I got this especially for both of you…”
Oh…
Under Zhao Yu’s repeated urging, they hesitantly sat down.
Zhao Yu personally served, placing different types of meat on each plate and portioning it out to them.
“Let’s eat!”
Under his gaze, the two sisters wolfed down the meat in their bowls.
Zhao Yu nodded in satisfaction.
It seemed that Xu Meng Lan didn’t poison the dishes.
“Where’s Su Lan? Hasn’t she woken up yet?”
Xu Meng Lan anxiously said, “Su Lan wasn’t feeling well, so she went back to sleep…”
Zhao Yu roughly understood that she was probably afraid he would harm her youngest sister, so he just shook his head.
He didn’t say much and continued eating.
After a short while, he noticed that the two sisters hardly dared to pick any meat from the dishes.
He sighed and proactively added some meat to their bowls.
“No need, we’ve just eaten…”
“How can that little bit be enough?!”
“Eat up quickly… finish what’s in your bowl.” Zhao Yu ordered.
The two sisters were feeling a mix of elation and inexplicable fear.
While they joyously savored the meat, they remained anxious inside.
Every time their bowls were emptied, Zhao Yu would proactively serve them more.
There was still about a portion of food left on the table. “Leave the rest for Su Lan to eat when she wakes up…”
After saying that, Zhao Yu immediately left for his room.
“Clang-!”
Only after hearing the familiar door shut, did the two sisters breathe a sigh of relief.
Xu Xiu Lan asked anxiously, “Sister, what’s he up to?”
“I don’t know…”
Xu Meng Lan was wondering why Zhao Yu suddenly treated them so kindly.
In the past, he wouldn’t even let them have rat meat.
He was surprisingly generous this time.
“Could it be our last meal before our execution?”
Xu Xiu Lan almost cried out, “I remember watching TV shows where prisoners get a good meal before they die…”
Xu Meng Lan was startled, but she reassured her, “It’s okay, it’s okay, we’re not prisoners, and he is, after all, your brother-in-law…”
Xu Xiu Lan finally calmed down and began to clean up the dishes.
Xu Meng Lan tiptoed to the master bedroom and eavesdropped for a bit, then stealthily retreated.
“Is he asleep?”
“Yes, he’s snoring so loudly…”
“What about the food…”
“Take it to your sister…”
Soon, Xu Xiu Lan quietly came to Xu Su Lan’s door, knocking with their secret code.
The door opened to reveal a girl who looked to be only fourteen or fifteen. Xu Su Lan wasn’t actually that young; she was seventeen. But due to lack of nutrition, she appeared underdeveloped.
“Sister, what is this?!” Xu Su Lan could not control her volume and exclaimed.
“Shh, quickly bring it in and eat!” Xu Xiu Lan hurriedly covered her mouth.
“Sis, you both should eat too…” Xu Su Lan wasn’t willing to eat alone and wanted to invite her two sisters in with her.
“We’ve already eaten…”
After some persuasion from Xu Xiu Lan, Xu Su Lan finally took the food inside and then locked the door behind her..
