The cake was wrapped in transparent plastic and was a pale yellow color, its texture delicate and soft. As soon as it was unwrapped, the unique aroma of the cake wafted out, making the little girl unable to resist swallowing her saliva.
The man gently tore off a small piece with his finger and put it in his mouth to taste. Upon tasting, he was stunned. The cake’s texture was fine; it released a faint scent of eggs and milk, slightly sweet without the cloying taste of essence—clearly a quality item, not some cheap knock-off. Moreover, it tasted very fresh, with no sign of spoilage.
He couldn’t help but glance at Fang Yuxin, who was not far away, thinking to himself that this person was probably more formidable than he had previously imagined. Fearing Fang Yuxin would notice, he quickly looked away and, without changing his expression, placed the cake next to his daughter’s mouth, gently saying, "Huanhuan, this was your favorite cake before, hurry and eat it."
By this time, the others had finished the food they had in their hands. Being adults, a pack of cake or bread couldn’t satisfy their hunger, but they didn’t continue eating. Instead, they divided up the food in their bags and were overjoyed to find a 10-kilogram bag of rice.
Compared to the bread, cakes, biscuits, or instant noodles, the rice seemed far less flashy and more substantial for filling their bellies. With rice, as long as there was clean water, a small handful could cook a large pot of porridge! If used frugally, it could last them a long time. Besides, rice didn’t have to worry about going bad, which made it much better than the other foods!
The problem was that there was only one bag of rice, which was difficult to divide. Everyone hesitated for a moment, each finding a bag to start dividing the rice.
With such a large bag of rice, no one else felt at ease no matter who kept it. After all, they had several cars, and nobody knew what could happen on the road ahead.
Yet such sentiments couldn’t be openly expressed—after all, the two had not yet died, and no one dared to act too egregiously. Provoking them into a "mutual destruction" scenario would not be worthwhile! Moreover, having escaped from the previous Safe Zone together and knowing each other from ordinary days, they had ties and didn’t have the heart to be completely ruthless. At most, they just felt displeased inside and wore slightly grim expressions. freewebnσvel.cøm
