I'm the Villainess in the Apocalypse -
Chapter 167. Dinner
Chapter 167: 167. Dinner
No matter how much Lucas felt aggrieved, he could only accept it. Anyway, he knew very well that this annoying cousin of his would never pay attention to his mental state at all.
This really made him wanted to find a partner on his own so that he didn’t have to be so aggrieved in front of Lucy.
"Is the negotiation done?" Lucy asked with a grin after that.
"Yes." Lucas had already sent all the result of the negotiation to the base. How it would be in the future was no longer his business. Anyway, he had done his part.
"Good." Lucy clapped her hand. "How’s uncle and the others, Cousin?"
"They’re doing pretty good." Lucas thought for a moment and then replied, "They all have their own position in the military, as the family members of military officers, they will never be treated badly."
Lucy nodded.
Her family members were all mostly in military. It was also because of this that they were usually protected when they were going. Because their family members were military who served the country, their family members were also protected.
Because if something happened to them, their family members who served as soldier would definitely feel bad.
"It’s good to have their people protected," Dylan commented.
Lucas looked at Dylan speechlessly. "Considering that your uncle is one of the leader in the base, you will also be protected. All you need is to ask for it."
Dylan glanced at Lucas and shook his head. "No. I’m not so thick skinned to ask for something like that so suddenly."
You’re not thick skinned?
As someone who had been abused by Dylan just now in the so called negotiation, Lucas wanted to complain. This statement was definitely incorrect and couldn’t be trusted in the slightest bit.
Lucas snorted.
Lucy laughed at Lucas’s expression.
They started to talk about some other things, laughing together and catching up with the past. The separation because of flood made them miss their family members a bit.
Even if they still kept contact with phones, it was different from seeing the person directly.
After some banters, they all have a hearty dinner.
Dylan had already prepared his food while Mark and Lucy were going to cook more because of the additional person to participate in their dinner.
Lucas felt jealous when he saw the rich food on the table. He also had enough contribution points to eat well, but he didn’t usually cook at home and had to wait for the food to be delivered.
It was definitely not as delicious as the food in this place.
*sigh*
"Let’s add a few more dishes. Do you want to help cooking, Dylan?" Mark asked as he walked to the kitchen.
"You want to add more?" Lucas was speechless as he looked at the large amount of side dishes there. "You’re so wasteful!"
"That’s not wasteful! That’s called enjoying life!" Lucy protested immediately. "As a soldier, you need to eat to your fill to serve the country well!"
Lucas looked at Lucy speechlessly. "Even if I want to serve the country’s well, it doesn’t mean that I have to eat so much! Also, you’re not a soldier yet!"
"Me and Mark will participate in the examination!"
"It’s not examination, it’s test!"
"That’s the same!"
The two of them banter childishly until Lucas gave up and looked at the rich table on the food with some heartache. He had to save some of his own spending, so he definitely couldn’t eat so much.
Thanks to that, he hadn’t been able to eat to his fill.
Now... it seemed that he could do that.
"Is the food really so lacking that even soldiers can’t eat well?" Anna asked doubtfully. In her opinion, even if the outside world was in difficult period, soldiers and important personnel will definitely eat to their fill.
Because their position was important, so what was good would be handed to them first.
"It’s not that I can’t eat well," Lucas refuted. "I can’t eat a lot of delicious food and most of the meal I have is simply to fill my stomach and nutrition. As for the taste, they’re just barely passable."
Thanks to their training, most of the soldiers who were also serving the country didn’t have any complaint whatsoever. Even if they felt a bit annoyed because the food was a bit lacking, but it was still within the acceptable range.
It was just that Lucas felt that the food was really so much in this table that he wanted to cry.
He knew their cooking would definitely taste good.
*sigh*
Lucy giggled. "You can come to eat occasionally. I have a lot of contribution points and exchanging them for food is already a certain thing."
She could eat those tasteless food, but if she could eat better, why should she wrong herself?
Anna heard Lucas’s words and nodded thoughtfully. "At the very least, you don’t need to feel hungry."
"I feel hungry during my training."
The others: "..."
That’s because it was necessary, got it?
Lucas laughed at their expression and they all started to banter with each other again.
Dylan and Mark soon finished with a few more dishes and put them on the table. With that, the five of them started eating.
Lucas swore that this was the best meal he had in the past few months.
The flood had caused many areas to lack in resources. Even if he and the other soldiers were still eating to their fill, it was nothing more than to pad their stomach.
As for the taste?
Sorry.
Hearing his words and experience, Dylan and Anna silently made their mind to never join the military.
If Lucas were to know that his words only strengthened Dylan and Anna’s determination not to join the military, it was estimated that he would vomit blood. He had been trying to recruit these two to the military, but it seemed that what he did was counterproductive.
