Chapter 68: 68. Tease

Dylan chuckled. "I guess it’s not that hard to guess about this."

Anna pursed her lips and didn’t say anything more. She had guesses that Dylan might also be able to think about this.

Even though the design seemed to be ancient and all, it was also the most economical and safest considering their current situation. If they were not thinking about the lives of the people, this kind of design will never be selected in the slightest bit.

"Are you going to go there?" Mark asked.

Anna was taken aback.

Go to the base?

The logical answer would be to go to the safe base and live in a safe place. After all, Anna knew very well that her own survival capabilities on her own was actually not very strong. She was not a very independent girl and it was quite tiring to live by herself.

The days when she had to cook by herself and failed was quite disheartening.

Not to mention, the world was not very safe right now with a lot of people who might no longer be bound by law.

Even if they might end up being punished in the end, it would still take some time until the law and order was restored. Until that time came, she would have to protect herself.

In this situation, the best choice was for her to go to the base.

But for some reasons, Anna didn’t want to go there.

"Has the base been built and how’s the situation?" Anna finally asked.

"This..." Mark scratched the back of his head. "It’s still being built and those who were there has been busy working on the foundation and all. But there hadn’t been much progress because of the rain."

Anna nodded slowly. "So to say, there’s no real base yet?"

"... Yes."

"Then I’ll think about it first." Anna shook her head helplessly.

If it was a readymade base, she will definitely go there because it was much safer than staying out here by herself. Her own strength was limited and being able to live in a safe environment would be the best for her.

But if the base was still under construction...

Anna was worried that she wouldn’t have place to stay and might even have to work to build the base and have a lot of conflicts with the others.

The first was fine but the latter was more annoying.

Anna didn’t really want to quarrel with others.

"Alright, you can think about it for now." Mark nodded. "There’s no hurry."

"Thank you." Anna smiled.

Dylan pursed his lips. He wanted to say that he couldn’t go to the base directly, but in the end he didn’t say it. There was no need to tell Anna about his plan and made her worry.

"How about..."

They continued to talk about other things and when it was around 3, Lucy woke up. She had her late lunch and then the four of them played together.

After some time, it was time for their practice and just like before, Anna was dragged by Lucy to use various practice machine until she nearly couldn’t move. Thankfully, Lucy still kept the limit to prevent Anna from passing out.

Though, the result was that Anna had no energy to watch Dylan make dinner.

After dinner, Dylan and Anna went out.

"Tonight is my turn to guard. You will accompany me tonight, Kitty." Dylan patted the cat’s head tenderly.

"Meow~." Kitty looked at Dylan and shook his fur.

"I think Kitty wants to sleep more than accompanying you," Anna tried to translate Kitty’s words jokingly.

Dylan rolled his eyes. "There’s no way. I need Kitty to accompany me or I wouldn’t be able to stay awake all night."

Well, when he thought about the danger of falling asleep, he definitely could stay awake. But it would be better with Kitty around.

"Tsk, the others can stay awake, how come you can’t?" Anna rolled her eyed disdainfully.

The lie was too easy to uncover.

Dylan chuckled. "I’m going to make coffee for the night guard. Along with some soup to pad my stomach."

Staying awake for all night, his stomach will inevitably feel hungry. Besides, Kitty will definitely protest if he didn’t have any snacks when waiting in the middle of the night like that.

"Oh, can I try to make your coffee?" Anna asked.

She has been a bit curious about using that machine.

"Feel free." Dylan didn’t mind.

"What are you going to make for your late night snack?"

"I’ll just fry some flour and eggs. They can be snacks and even if it’s not very full, they’re delicious enough to keep me awake along with coffee."

"Oh, how to make them?"

"It’s..."

The two people continued to talk as they went to the kitchen with the little tail following behind them.

Anna went to make coffee while Dylan made his own late night snacks. Kitty was moving around for a while before settling on the chair and taking a nap.

What Dylan made was more like fried dough.

It was very simple and didn’t seem to be enough to make him feel full.

"Are you sure that you don’t need anything else?" Anna asked doubtfully when she saw what Dylan prepared for his own late night snack.

"Do you expect me to eat a full meal in the middle of the night?" Dylan looked at Anna back speechlessly. "Please, I don’t want to get fat and bloated."

Anna squinted, "You men also care about weight?"

"Of course! I have to keep my body fit to seduce my future wife."

Anna: "...."

She silently moved her eyes towards Dylan’s stomach and then looked away again. If she was not wrong, Dylan was busy exercising when he has the free time.

Does this mean he has ABS?

For some reasons, Anna felt a bit curious.

When she saw Dylan’s smiling expression, Anna forcefully restrained her thoughts and looked away, pretending that she never had such impure thoughts.
