Chapter 20: A Child Tears Apart Zombies in the Apocalypse (20)

"Mumu mumu, Ningbao has so many lollipops! o(≧v≦)o"

The little dumpling, its short legs wrapped in bandages again, hopped and skipped toward Mumu.

The "frail" Mumu stumbled when the solid little dumpling hit her. Luckily, she had vines that helped her catch herself, otherwise it would have been another tragic scene of people falling over.

She patted Ningbao's little head affectionately:

"Oh, Ningbao is so great! But you can only eat one a day, and remember to brush your teeth properly."

"Mmm~"

Ningbao nodded happily. Although Mumu didn't allow her to eat too much sugar, she would always make her some sugar-free or low-sugar snacks. So after a long period of adjustment, Ningbao was no longer so resistant to them.

She instinctively wanted to touch her chubby little face to the wooden stick, but after rubbing it a couple of times, she belatedly realized that something felt wrong. Ningbao's face was still bandaged.

The child's clear eyes were momentarily blank, but this little thing was clearly no challenge for our incredibly clever little Ningbao. She tiptoed and planted several kisses on Mumu's face, successfully covering Mumu's face with drool.

Having successfully expressed her love for Mumu, Little Zongzi skipped away again. There was no other way; her legs weren't very flexible right now, so she could only hop.

However, Ningbao is actually quite familiar with this situation. Because if it's very cold in winter, she'll be bundled up like a little dumpling, making it difficult for her to walk.

Ningbao, who has short legs, said that she is very familiar with this and will definitely not fall.

Li Qinglan, standing to the side, felt a bit nauseous. If watching others flaunt their love was like eating dog food (a Chinese slang term for witnessing public displays of affection), then what was she doing watching others flaunt their sisterhood? Eating cat food (a Chinese slang term for witnessing public displays of affection)?

To make matters worse, a little kitten was meowing incessantly nearby. Of course, what Li Qinglan heard was meowing, but Ning Bao, who was bound to Bai Gao by a contract, heard it as:

"Ningbao, Ningbao, come quick! There are new things unlocked in the shop!"

"What? Do you have small cakes?"

Ningbao was incredibly excited and jumped right up to Bai Gao, opening the control panel. Then…

"One can of baby formula, 15 points; one pacifier, 2 points."

Ningbao swiped the screen and closed it again. It wasn't a small cake, a small cookie, or even chocolate. Hmm~ It's useless.

The child was a little disappointed, but thinking of her 1000 lollipops, she quickly cheered up again. She sat leisurely on the ground, swinging her legs, her mind blank, not thinking about anything except the glutinous rice balls that were about to be cooked.

Ningbao didn't have to wait too long, since cooking glutinous rice balls is quite quick. Mumu didn't just cook a portion for Ningbao; she cooked quite a lot, making sure there was one for Li Qinglan too, since Li Qinglan hadn't finished her breakfast before starting to fight.

Li Qinglan was initially enjoying her meal, after all, Mumu's cooking skills were truly excellent. The generous sesame filling exploded in her mouth, sweet but not cloying. The outer layer was also chewy and delicious, with a pleasant texture that didn't stick to her teeth.

However, seeing the sisters' extremely affectionate scene on the other side, she suddenly didn't find the glutinous rice balls in her bowl so appealing anymore. Were they taking advantage of her not having a sister and making her eat cat food?

Li Qinglan thought she had let go, after all, death is like a lamp going out, and more than fifty years had passed. Her younger sister rarely appeared in her dreams anymore. Her sister's small figure and her soft, sweet voice calling her "sister" seemed to be getting more and more blurred in her memory.

But for some reason, at this moment, she still felt a little sore in her eyes and her heart was throbbing with pain.

When her younger sister was just over three months old, her parents divorced; neither of them wanted the two girls. Since then, she and her sister have lived with their grandmother. Their grandmother is getting old and her energy is limited, so she, as the older sister, practically raised her sister single-handedly…

"Phew~ Eat slowly, be careful it's hot. Nobody's going to take it from you."

Although Mu Mu had previously told Ning Bao that she could eat by herself using the vines, given Ning Bao's skill level in manipulating the vines, Mu Mu, the "old mother," was really worried, afraid that Ning Bao might accidentally shove a scalding hot glutinous rice ball in her face.

"OK!"

As Xiao Ningbao received Mu Mu's careful feeding, he nodded enthusiastically, his eyes squinting happily.

It's so delicious! It's Ningbao's favorite black sesame filling, so sweet!

A child's happiness is so simple. A small bowl of glutinous rice balls made Ningbao extremely happy, and she kept swinging her little feet.

Ningbao ate with great joy, and Mumu, seeing how happy Ningbao was, was also happy to feed her.

Even the white rice cake was drawn in by the aroma, struggling against the chewy glutinous rice balls. And it really was a struggle! Just eating breakfast required using both hands and feet; it wasn't easy for the little kitten.

After all, cats are carnivores, not omnivores, and their teeth are not suited for eating this kind of thing. Moreover, Bai Gao is only a little over a month old kitten, and its teeth are not fully developed yet, so it is even more difficult for it to bite.

But faced with the temptation of delicious food, the brave cat is not afraid of difficulties! He pulls, he pulls, and he pulls again! After tearing open the hateful outer skin, he can directly lick the sweet sesame filling inside.

A flawless version after careful inspection!

Hehe, Gao Gao is so smart!

The saddest person was undoubtedly Yang Chenyi, whose belly was so full he could barely crawl, all from eating that half-pot of noodles. Now, faced with the sweet glutinous rice balls, he could only silently weep.

Hmm~ As expected, what goes around comes around.

In this apocalyptic world, the warm atmosphere here in Ningbao is always out of place with this world, so it really does have its advantages of having strength and resources.

Eat when you're hungry, drink when you're thirsty, sleep when you're tired, and clear out any zombies that come along. Sigh, this life is actually pretty comfortable, definitely more comfortable than working 996 or something.

But not everyone has the strength and resources that Ning Bao has; at least 99% of people in the apocalypse don't.

Like Zhu Ruizhe, although he himself does not think so, he seems to be one of the 99%.

When bad luck strikes, even drinking cold water can cause problems. This saying couldn't be more fitting to describe Zhu Ruizhe's current situation. Sure enough, he had just been fleeing in a sorry state when he immediately bumped into a level seven zombie.

Oh my, it's a familiar corpse, the very one he got rid of using the system item he redeemed from the shop.

Actually, thinking about it, it's not surprising. Ning Bao and the others were still on the edge of this zombie's territory. And Zhu Ruizhe's running was pushing them even deeper into the zombie's territory.

"System, quickly exchange a space teleportation talisman for me!"

Zhu Ruizhe's actual combat ability was already weak, and now that he was injured, he had no desire to fight against a zombie that was a level higher than him.

Only one update today~ Sorry, but final exams are coming up soon, and this procrastinating author hasn't studied much yet. _(:з」∠)_

All the debts I incurred during this period will be paid back during winter break! ψ(`)ψ
