His cooking is so delicious that he's become the darling of the entire cultivation world.

Chapter 73

Yun Ci started decocting the medicine and went to the well to pump water.

Fill a large basin with water, take out the apples and put them in the basin to wash.

Then I poured out the water from Xiao Hei's bathtub and added some fresh water.

Little Black, carrying a cucumber in its mouth, ran over, shaking its head, and jumped into the basin of water.

They rolled around happily in the water, splashing water everywhere.

Yun Ci smiled, patted Xiao Hei, and went to the kitchen.

Place the kneaded dough into several large bowls and let it rise.

He and Xiaobai ate tomato and egg noodles for lunch.

Yun Ci also fried two eggs in a frying pan.

Take a bite of the crispy fried egg, and every hole in the egg will soak up the tomato juice.

It's delicious!

After we finished eating, the dough had risen perfectly.

Yun Ci took a deep breath and drank the decocted medicine in one gulp before heading to the kitchen to get busy.

The oven can bake 60 apple pies at a time.

Yun Ci kept kneading the dough, making jam, and wrapping apple pies.

The kitchen was filled with the sweet aroma of apple pie.

Little Black smelled the apple pie and ran into the kitchen, tilting its head to watch the busy little figure inside.

Then he ran out again.

When Yun Ci heard the sound and looked down, he was immediately at a loss for words, not knowing whether to laugh or cry.

Little Blackie ran in carrying its food bowl.

The food bowl seemed a bit too big, so Xiao Hei had to drag it along.

Yun Ci knew that Xiao Hei loved apple pie, so she put some apple pie into Xiao Hei's food bowl.

"Little Black, you can't eat it yet, it's still too hot."

Although Xiao Hei has not developed any intelligence, it can understand some of what Yun Ci says because Yun Ci says it so often.

"Ow"

Little Black looked at the apple pie in the rice bowl and happily circled around Yun Ci.

Yun Ci told Xiao Hei to eat in the yard, and then she got busy again.

In one afternoon, Yun Ci baked more than 500 apple pies.

As she grew increasingly tired, Yun Ci simply stopped.

These apple pies are enough to sell once.

Yun Ci put all the apple pies into her storage ring, so that when she took them out to sell, they would still be fresh out of the oven.

When I got to the yard, I saw that Xiaobai was still resting with its eyes closed.

Yun Ci returned to the house, took out paper and pen from the cabinet, and then sat down in the courtyard.

Yun Ci placed the paper on the small table, dipped a brush in ink, and began to write earnestly.

Her small face was extremely serious, and her long, curled eyelashes cast slight shadows on her soft, white face under the sunlight.

Everything is fine.

If you don't look at the way the young boy holds the pen and the words he writes...

The young boy held the brush in a very peculiar way, and the characters on the paper were crooked and messy.

If a seven-year-old were here, they would definitely laugh and say that his writing is better than theirs.

The characters were barely legible!

After Yun Ci finished writing, he put down his brush, picked up the paper, and looked at what he had written, becoming more and more satisfied with it.

He's amazing! He's learned so many words since he came into this world!

Yun Ci hummed a song in a very good mood as she put the paper into her storage bag.

The sun hadn't set yet, and Yun Ci stretched.

Feeling a bit tired, I glanced at the little white dog and little black dog beside me, then turned around and went back into the house to lie down for a while.

I fell asleep without even realizing it while lying down.

The sun slowly set, and the sky gradually darkened.

I do not know how long it has been.

Yun Ci opened her eyes in the darkness.

When I opened my eyes, everything was pitch black.

Yun Ci's eyes widened instantly, her mind going completely blank.

There was a faint moonlight in the room, but Yun Ci could only see endless darkness.

Yun Ci's breathing suddenly became heavier.

It's getting heavier and heavier.

My heart was racing.

Bang, bang, bang, bang...

"Well......"

The boy suddenly hugged his head and curled up.

"Let me out, let me out... let me out, no, I don't want to be here..."

Yun Ci curled herself up tightly, her body trembling uncontrollably.

Suddenly, the room slowly lit up.

A hand gently tugged at Yun Ci's sleeve.

"Yun Ci, Yun Ci? Don't be afraid."

Upon hearing the sound, Yun Ci immediately opened her tightly closed eyes.

Hei Zi was standing by the bed, holding the glowing little black dog.

Xiao Hei let out a howl when it saw Yun Ci.

Yun Ci's clear eyes were now filled with fear.

Hei Zi stepped forward and whispered to comfort Yun Ci, "Don't be afraid, Yun Ci, I'm here."

As Yun Ci listened to Hei Zi's words of comfort, her mood gradually calmed down.

But deep down, fear still lingered.

He had just thought... thought he had returned to that dark world from which he could never escape.

Hei Zi continued to comfort Yun Ci.

After a moment, Yun Ci calmed down completely and looked at Hei Zi gratefully, "Thank you, Hei Zi."

If it weren't for the trolls, he wouldn't know what to do.

Hei Zi shook his head, his bright black eyes looking at Yun Ci.

Yun Ci was taken aback when she saw Hei Zi's dark eyes.

He had never seen Kuroko's eyes so vivid.

Kuroko smiled faintly.

"It's okay, aren't we friends? Although I've never had friends before, I always see how people get along with their friends."

"Friends...that's how it is...Yun Ci, if you're ever scared, you can come to me. Even when Chu Ziming isn't around, you can still come to me. I want to be by your side when you're afraid."

Yun Ci was stunned when she heard this.

The thin, dark-skinned boy in front of me had a face full of sincerity and concern.

He likes anyone who is sincere.

Yun Ci felt very lucky.

He came into this world alone and helpless, but now there are so many people who are kind to him.

Yun Ci hugged Hei Zi with a face full of emotion.

"Okay! You're my friend now. Thank you, Heizi."

Hei Zi suddenly stiffened as Yun Ci hugged him, then greedily enjoyed the warm embrace.

But Yun Ci only hugged her briefly before letting go.

He jumped off the bed and put his arm around Hei Zi's thin shoulders.

"Let's go! To celebrate becoming friends, we'll cook something delicious tonight!"

With that, Yun Ci walked out excitedly.

The disappointment in Kuroko's eyes was hidden.

"Uh-huh."

......

Yunci took out the apple pie she made today and shared it with Heizi.

Then he went to the kitchen.

Chu Ziming also came in the evening.

Yun Ci prepared a very sumptuous dinner.

Three young boys and a little white animal were enjoying their dinner.

At the dinner table, Chu Ziming and Yun Ci chatted and laughed, and sometimes they would bicker because of their different opinions, but they never really argued.

The courtyard was filled with laughter.

Yun Ci noticed that although Hei Zi was usually quiet, his expression today was not as gloomy as usual.

Sometimes, even if he doesn't speak along with Chu Ziming, a slight smile will appear on Hei Zi's face when he hears something funny.

Yun Ci smiled and picked up a piece of pork rib.

"Hey, eat more! There's more in the pot if you're not full."

Hei Zi's dark eyes were bright, and she nodded obediently, "Yes, thank you, Yun Ci."

Chu Ziming was displeased; he looked at Yun Ci with a displeased expression.

"Yun Ci, you didn't serve me any."

Why? Why does that hater get it but he doesn't?

unhappy.

Yun Ci, “…”

Why does he seem like an emperor from ancient times who was being fought over for the emperor's favor?

However, Yun Ci still put a large piece of pork rib on Chu Ziming's plate.

Chu Ziming was immediately delighted.

"Chewmi."

"Okay, okay, Xiaobai has one too."

Yun Ci wiped away non-existent sweat after finishing.

Alright, I won't be helping anyone anymore.
