Chapter 23 looks better
Looking at herself in the mirror, Wen Li suddenly felt like crying.
She didn't waste those points!
Although she can't be called a beauty now, she's at least somewhat presentable than before!
Having lost another twenty pounds, Wen Li looked noticeably smaller, and her once large eyes, which had been squeezed into beady shapes by the fat, were now fully revealed.
The pimples and acne on my cheeks have disappeared. Although my skin is still sallow, it looks much cleaner and fresher, and not so unsightly anymore.
The teeth that Wen Li cared about most had also changed; when she smiled, she had eight teeth that were neat, bright, and white.
"It's really...not easy."
Wen Li sighed, put down the mirror, and went to the door to wash up.
It was just getting light outside, and Wen Li got up very early; that's just how this body's biological clock works.
Zhu Yan and Xin Yuan next door had not yet woken up.
After washing up, Wen Li headed towards the kitchen.
Time to prepare breakfast.
Wen Li went into the small kitchen and took out the pheasant and potatoes she had brought yesterday to wash.
These are the ingredients. She plans to make a chicken and potato noodle soup this morning.
Yesterday, Wen Li spent one point to redeem a newbie ingredient gift pack.
Wen Li ordered some seasonings, rice, and noodles.
The noodles are dried noodles, a whole box of them.
The system's new user benefits are quite generous.
For Wen Li, a box of noodles is enough to last a long time.
However, if you add Zhu Yan and Xin Yuan, things might be different, as both of them have large appetites.
Do you have to eat two or three bags in one sitting?
Wen Li wasn't sure either.
She washed the ingredients, then moved them into the small kitchen and began cooking.
There was a stone stove in the small kitchen. The original owner only ate cooked food, so Zhu Yan specially built it here to make it easier for Wen Li to prepare cooked food.
Wen Li first added the chicken to make chicken soup, and then added the diced potatoes after a while.
The aroma wafted from the small kitchen, with a few wisps drifting into Zhu Yan's cave.
Xin Yuan, sensitive to the smell of food, instantly snapped awake and sniffed the air intently.
"...What does it taste like?" Zhu Yan mumbled, half-asleep.
Xin Yuan had already gotten up and was walking towards the cave entrance.
The sky was already bright, and the warm sunlight shone on the earth.
Xin Yuan rubbed his eyes and looked toward the source of the aroma. Wen Li was just coming out carrying a bowl of cooked chicken soup and noodles.
"You're awake. Breakfast is ready," Wen Li said, placing the pot on the stone table.
Next, look in the direction where Xin Yuan is.
Xin Yuan had just woken up, and his slightly curly brown hair looked a bit frizzy, which was strangely cute.
He looked somewhat bewildered in the direction of Wen Li, his eyes half-closed.
"What did you cook?" Xin Yuan asked.
"Potato and chicken soup, and noodles." Wen Li sat down on the stone bench. "Is Zhu Yan still not awake?"
Xin Yuan shook his head. "Brother Zhu Yan is still sleeping."
After saying that, he walked towards the well, drew a bucket of water, and washed up briefly.
After washing up, Xin Yuan finally woke up.
He walked towards Wen Li, his gaze falling on her back, a hint of surprise flashing in his amber eyes.
Was it just his imagination? Wen Li seemed to have lost weight again?
Xin Yuan tried to recall what Wen Li looked like yesterday, but found that he couldn't remember at all.
At this moment, Zhu Yan also came out of the cave.
He yawned and scratched his short red hair.
"What is this? It smells so good..."
He had barely finished speaking when he met Wen Li's gaze.
Zhu Yan closed her mouth, glanced at Xin Yuan who had just finished washing up and stood not far away, and then looked at Wen Li who was behaving obediently in front of the stone table.
Wen Li smiled at him, "Breakfast is ready."
After her orthodontic treatment, Wen Li became much more confident. Instead of forcing a smile, she revealed her eight shiny teeth.
"Oh." Zhu Yan awkwardly looked away and walked towards the well.
Strange, that ugly freak looks much better today... Zhu Yan wondered to himself.
The system comes with a built-in buff, so others will only notice that Wen Li has changed, but they won't dwell on it.
After Zhu Yan and Xin Yuan finished washing up, they sat down at the stone table.
Wen Li opened the lid, and a wonderful aroma wafted out from the pot.
The two were immediately invigorated by the delicious aroma that filled them up early in the morning.
"I stewed yesterday's potatoes and pheasant together, and also cooked some noodles. Try them," Wen Li said. Then, she opened the wooden basin full of noodles.
Wen Li couldn't quite figure out the exact amount of food the two of them would eat, so she only ordered a packet of noodles.
A whole bag of noodles, once cooked, yielded a considerable amount; Wen Li even felt it was too much.
However, she felt that the two of them should be able to finish the food.
"What is this?" Xin Yuan asked in surprise.
He had never seen noodles before; this highly processed product was far too advanced for them.
"Food is plentiful," Wen Li said succinctly.
Zhu Yan, however, was quite cautious, asking, "Where did you get all this?"
Wen Li replied evasively, "I found it in a cave. My mother left it to me."
After bringing up their deceased mother, the two did not ask any further questions.
Xin Yuan's attention was entirely focused on the noodles. "How are you supposed to eat this?"
Wen Li first ladled out some noodles, poured broth over them, then added potatoes and chicken. A simple bowl of potato and chicken soup noodles was ready.
She didn't keep the bowl of noodles for herself, but instead gave it to Xin Yuan.
"Try it."
Xin Yuan looked slightly surprised, but did not refuse. "Thank you."
Zhu Yan witnessed this scene, sneered inwardly, and withdrew his gaze.
Wen Li continued serving noodles and pushed them in front of Zhu Yan, saying, "This is yours."
Zhu Yan was surprised that Wen Li would serve him noodles, and he was visibly stunned for a moment.
The surprise in his eyes hadn't yet faded.
"Thank you," he replied curtly.
Wen Li smiled at him.
Zhu Yan awkwardly avoided her gaze.
Then, Wen Li continued to serve herself noodles.
She didn't serve herself much because she has a small appetite.
The three of them ate breakfast quietly. Zhu Yan, who had been engrossed in eating, suddenly looked up and glanced in a certain direction.
Wen Li noticed his movement and looked over as well.
"What's wrong?" she asked, puzzled.
Zhu Yan wrinkled her nose slightly and said, "Yan Ci is here."
Inkstone Resignation.
Wen Li almost forgot that she had this beast husband.
Speaking of which, Bai Yanci is the one who hates her the most among all the beast husbands.
Wen Li felt uneasy and kept turning around, but she still couldn't see Bai Yanci.
"Nobody's here..." she muttered.
Zhu Yan said, "I could smell his scent nearby."
No sooner had she finished speaking than Bai Yanci appeared in Wen Li's line of sight.
In the distance, Bai Yanci was bathed in sunlight, exuding an otherworldly aura. He had long, jet-black hair, which was tied up with a ribbon.
Her skin was pale and cold, much paler than Wen Li's, and her features were delicate and beautiful, with her upturned eyes adding a touch of charm.
Wen Li hadn't looked closely before, but now she realized that Bai Yanci was indeed very handsome, even though his face was expressionless at the moment.
Bai Yanci is a completely different type from Zhu Yan and Xin Yuan.
Zhu Yan is a tough guy, Xin Yuan is a handsome young man, then Bai Yanci is a beauty, a super beauty.
Wen Li saw things clearly, and Bai Yanci also noticed her gaze, which was sweeping back and forth from afar.
His light green pupils were as beautiful as jewels in the sunlight.
After not seeing her for two days, Bai Yanci didn't even recognize Wen Li when he saw her again.
Wen Li had changed so much that Bai Yanci only vaguely felt that the female not far away looked somewhat familiar.
However, he wasn't so oblivious that he quickly realized that the female in front of him was Wen Li.
"Yan Ci," Zhu Yan greeted him first.
Bai Yanci nodded to him, then turned and left.
Without the slightest hesitation.
Wen saw it; when Bai Yanci looked at her, the disgust in his eyes was almost overflowing.
Just how much does Bai Yanci hate her?
