Universe Infinite Canteen.

Chapter 784 I Almost Believed It
"How is it?" Malu handed over a napkin and pointed to the corner of his mouth.

Yu Yitong took the paper and wiped off the red oil. "It's delicious." After a pause, she added, "It's the best shredded pork with fish flavor I've ever eaten."

Just from this sentence, it is difficult for Malu to judge whether the sophistry of fish-flavored pork shreds really works.

So he thought for a moment and said, "Today is Saturday... Are you going to work too?"

"Well, there is an offline community event next Monday, so we need to prepare in advance." Yu Yitong said.

"Tsk tsk, it seems like you're working really hard, working overtime every day. How about it, do you like your current job?"

“I like it. Although I do have to work overtime a lot, the salary is not bad. I can pay my own rent, utilities, and save a lot of money. Moreover, my job is related to food, and I can meet many great people in this field.

"Oh, by the way, the company often distributes restaurant coupons as employee benefits..."

"Putting aside the fact of 996, blindly emphasizing dispensable benefits should be considered as sophistry," Malu muttered softly.

"what?"

"nothing."

However, there is just one problem. We cannot be 100% sure that this dish of shredded pork with fish flavor has been successful. After all, although it is rare, there are indeed some weird people in this world who really like to work overtime.

To be on the safe side, Malu decided to continue observing. This time he planned to ask a question whose answer he knew in advance, in order to test whether Yu Yitong was making a sophistry.

"Why did you stand me up in the first place?"

"When will the pigeons be released?"

"You left me a message on Steam saying you wanted to break up. I said we should talk in person, and you agreed, but you didn't show up. Why did you stand me up?" Malu said.

Yu Yitong was stunned, as if she didn't expect Malu to bring up the past again, "I... I have already apologized."

"Yes, but I want to know why you do this."

"Why, do you care?"

"I don't care. I'm just curious."

Yu Yitong bit her lip and said, "There's no special reason. I was just scared at that time."

"What are you afraid of? We live in a society ruled by law now, and I am not the kind of person who gets easily emotional."

"It's not you I'm afraid of."

"Who is that."

"It's me," Yu Yitong hesitated, and then said, "I'm afraid I will regret it after seeing you."

"........."

This time it was Malu's turn to be stunned. However, before he could say anything, Yu Yitong had already stood up and said, "I have finished my meal and answered the questions. It is getting late. I need to go to the company to clock in."

After she finished speaking, she stuffed her notebook, recorder and gimbal back into her backpack as quickly as possible, then pushed the door open and walked out.

Because he walked too fast, he tripped when going down the stairs. Fortunately, Yu Yitong stabilized himself in time and did not fall.

However, after she took about twenty steps, she heard footsteps behind her again. Yu Yitong didn't know why, but she suddenly felt panicked. She subconsciously quickened her pace and even jogged at the back.

"Hey, don't run, you dropped your thermos." She stopped only when Malu called her, looking a little embarrassed, "Oh, thank you for bringing it to me."

However, when she reached out to grab the thermos, Malu did not let go and continued to ask, "If you regret it, why did you break up?"

"I... couldn't afford a relationship at that time," Yu Yitong said, "I had to solve the problem of survival first. I had to work to earn living expenses, rent, and repay the loan, so I didn't have time for love.

"In order to study abroad, I borrowed 30 yuan from the bank, which is not fair to my partner. I am very happy to be with you, but no matter how beautiful the story is, it will come to an end.

"Anyway, that's what I thought at the time. Starting over is a good thing for both you and me. Look, aren't we all doing well now?"

"Relationships are between two people. Don't arbitrarily decide what is good for the other party and what is not." Malu said with a straight face, "This is why humans evolved mouths, for communication, communication."

"Ok."

After Yu Yitong said this, neither of them spoke for a full half minute. Then Yu Yitong took out his cell phone and looked at it.

"Well, I really have to go to work. I'm glad you're okay. When you come back from your trip, remember to have the Universe Infinity Canteen open early. There are many diners who like your food waiting for you."

…………

Looking at Yu Yitong's hurriedly leaving back, Malu slapped his thigh suddenly, "Damn, I almost believed it. It seems that this dish should be ready."

Boss Ma was very proud of himself for having successfully created two dishes in succession.

He now felt that cooking was not that difficult. As long as he found the trick, it would be as easy as drinking water.

Coincidentally, at this time, Yanwu also called him and said that the blue lobster had been obtained.

In this way, all the ingredients needed for the blue lobster rice bowl have been collected, and the millipede has a way out.

On the other side, Wrench had already installed the energy core and a warp pulse engine on the Pink Whale.

She is still debugging the parameters, but the spacecraft should be able to take off before midnight tonight at the latest.

So Malu also suspended his devilish training, returned to the villa and started packing up.

In fact, there was nothing much to pack. Apart from the ingredients he needed, there were some daily necessities and so on. If he failed, the remaining things would be meaningless anyway.

And if he succeeds, he can naturally continue to use it after he comes back.

So in addition to clothes and toiletries, Malu also brought entertainment equipment such as a laptop, a projector and a switch.

In terms of personnel, Lao Wang, the ace partner, is definitely indispensable. In addition, according to the agreement, Wrench will also participate in this operation. Before her, Millipede also invited the hardware store owner to serve as the spacecraft engineer.

The Wandering Warlock is the security chief, and Chen Zhengyi is the deputy security chief.

To Malu's surprise, the Valkinas, who were only the size of fingers, also volunteered to go to Plane 8287 together.

Although Millipede warned them that this might be a one-way adventure, it could not dampen the determination of these brave Valkinas to defend their homeland.

Mr. Maotuan, as the designated beer supplier of the Infinite Canteen of the Universe, was forced to board the ship because he could not take care of himself after leaving those Valkinas.

But the most unexpected member on the spaceship was the black bear in front of the millipede.

"You are... peeing on you? Why are you here? Today is Saturday, and the zoo has to be open, right? And why did you come to City B?"
