Survival in the neighborhood: Give me a piece of bread every day

"Finally finished. These past few hours have exhausted me."

The egret lay on the bed in a "big" shape.

One person temporarily occupied a considerable position.

"Aren't you the one ordering Li Jia and the others around? You haven't done much work, so what's there to be tired about?"

"Watching them work is exhausting too! Madam, when will you learn to be considerate of us younger sisters? You, on the other hand, don't have to do anything all day long; you eat, drink, and relieve yourself all in bed."

Bai Lu propped herself up on her arms and sat up.

She turned around and acted coquettishly towards Jiang Lai.

Of course, most of the time it was just teasing her.

"You! I'm not that lazy! I clearly pooped and pee on the toilet!"

Jiang Lai retorted defiantly.

That sly fox!

Although she kept calling me "big sister," her eyes didn't seem to show any sign of submission.

The egret looks like it could usurp the throne at any moment.

No, she was the first one to join Chen An's room.

Then his official girlfriend can only be himself!

Everyone else could only move aside.

"Honey, I got some blueprints in the shop today, would you like to take a look?"

"Um."

Jiang Lai noticed that the man's attention was on her again.

She immediately raised her chin triumphantly at the egret.

It's like saying: See? I have plenty of ways to get my darling to see me!

"Tch, big sister is so childish."

The egret rolled its eyes.

She didn't give in just like that.

Instead, they waited until they were full and satisfied before they could really squeeze Chen An dry.

Jiang Lai is shameless; she always tries to seduce Chen An when they're not around.

She didn't care about saving face; she could do it anytime, anywhere.

Jiang Lai took out all the drawings she had received and presented them on the table.

Chen An glanced at it and saw several room expansion plans inside.

[Effect: Your room will be 2 square meters larger]

【Requirements for use: 10 Gold Coins】

……

This thing is indeed very useful to him.

Although the room is now 24 square meters, it still can't keep up with the number of people inside.

Since Bai Mengjie came in, the comfort level has been stuck at 36, the same level as when Bai Lu was there.

Now Chu Lexiao has been added to the list.

If we don't expand the rooms, they'll be crammed in again.

Chen An chose to expand the room first.

Let's see how much more comfortable Bai Mengjie and Chu Lexiao's addition will make for him.

As long as it increases, it will get closer and closer to 80.

He was really looking forward to seeing what his upgraded talent would look like.

Will the resources we receive be doubled, or will there be other effects?

Chen An stopped fantasizing.

Instead, they should first focus on arranging the current tasks.

[You have used 3 room expansion blueprints, deducting 30 gold coins. Your room has increased by 8 square meters. Please select the expansion direction.]

Gold coins were deducted from the backpack.

As before, Chen An chose to expand the area.

This time he expanded the space in front of the bed.

This will give them a wider and more comfortable range of activities.

With an increase of 8 square meters, the room immediately increased from 24 square meters to 32 square meters!

Things are quite relaxed now.

It has reached the size of a hotel room.

Chen An noticed that the room had become larger, so he looked at the control panel.

A notification popped up on his panel.

Your room comfort level +12

Current comfort level: 48

"Great, it's increased again, now it's 48!"

Chen An exclaimed in surprise, a smile curving upwards at the corners of his mouth.

With 32 more points of comfort, he can trigger a quest and upgrade his talent.

That's great.

Sure enough, as long as the room was big enough, Bai Mengjie and Chu Lexiao could increase their comfort level.

"Wow, honey, our room is so much bigger! It looks so spacious now, it seems like we could add another bed? Or should I get another bed design printed?"

Jiang Lai exclaimed in surprise.

As he spoke, his finger slid across the panel.

She's already looking for blueprints.

"Sure, take a look."

Chen An did not refuse.

There are seven people in their room now, but only one bed and one recliner.

We absolutely need another bed.

It might even increase the comfort of the room.

Moreover, at the current rate of expansion...

He should be able to finish the three-bedroom apartment soon.

After a flurry of activity, Chen An took out three roast chickens, orange juice, mineral water, and fried chicken legs from his backpack.

"It's getting late, let's eat something and get some rest. We'll be fighting the BOSS tomorrow."

"Wow, so much delicious food! Honey, you're amazing, you have so many delicious things to eat!"

The egrets cried out joyfully.

She did eat roast chicken.

The taste was absolutely amazing!

She's been so busy today, she's definitely going to have a big feast!

Without hesitation, the egret broke off a large chicken leg for itself and devoured it with gusto.

Gurgle.

Chen An heard a sound of swallowing.

Looking towards the sound, it came from Chu Lexiao, who was standing honestly to the side.

Chu Lexiao was stunned when she saw the table full of meat and drinks.

Their bread has to be divided into even smaller portions; it's a good thing if everyone can have enough physical activity.

But Chen An's room was now food-free?

Are they going to skip tomorrow if they keep eating like this?!

"Chu Lexiao, come and have some too."

Upon hearing the man's voice, Chu Lexiao immediately waved her hand in refusal.

"Thank you, landlord. I already ate the bread that Teacher Bai gave me, so I'm not hungry yet."

I'm not hungry, I just crave food.

The fragrance seemed to have grown legs, desperately trying to get into my nose.

She was incredibly anxious and restless.

Chen An glanced at Chu Lexiao's panel; her satiety level had not yet reached 100.

He wasn't used to looking at the residents' control panels before.

But he'll get used to it after a few more visits.

Now they have it all under their control.

"Come and eat. I need to test your talent in a bit, so make sure your satiety level is at 100 first."

Chen An spoke calmly.

But it carried an order that could not be refused.

"Xiaoxiao, come and eat."

Bai Mengjie took over the task of taking care of her and intended to see it through to the end.

Until she can accept the way things are done in this room.

"Okay, sure."

Chu Lexiao was shocked to hear that he wanted to use his talent, but her hunger level was not high enough.

So he cautiously joined in.

Before eating, she thanked everyone.

"Thank you, landlord; thank you, Teacher Bai; thank you, ladies..."

They were all older than me.

This way of addressing someone should be fine, right?

"Eat."

Jiang Lai handed the chicken wing in her hand to Chu Lexiao.

She can help Chen An.

Then she'll take extra care of him.

Chu Lexiao is too honest and obedient; she's willing to take extra care of her.

Unlike egrets.

Just like a glutton.

"Thank you, Sister Jiang."

Chu Lexiao thanked them before taking the chicken wing and nibbling on it.

This time, the egret learned its lesson and left the table immediately after finishing its meal.

This would save her from having Chen An make her wash the dishes again.

After a while, Chen An's calm voice rang out: "Bai Lu, go wash the dishes."

The egret immediately frowned.

This doesn't make sense!

"Ugh, honey, why me again? Isn't it supposed to be whoever is the slowest who has to do it?"

She sat cross-legged on the bed, looking innocent and unwilling.

"Chen An, I'll go do the quest. Bai Lu really worked hard today."

Bai Mengjie said gently.

She didn't actually do anything when she came here; she just connected with him to share the damage at any time.

But she didn't actually expend much energy on the mission today.

"Yes, I already have a very hard time."

Seeing that someone was doing it, the egret sat back down with a clear conscience.

Chen An did not force Bai Mengjie to give up, but instead assigned Bai Lu other tasks.

"Bai Lu, pass the word down to them and tell them to upgrade their windows as much as possible. The mall has been getting a lot of broken glass these past few days, so it's probably for something useful."

"The monsters outside can now enter the community. Nobody knows if they will attack through the windows. It's better to be prepared."

Now the egret knows.

Chen An would never let her be idle, no matter what.

However, she can simply leave this matter to her.

She readily agreed with sweet words, "Okay, darling, whatever you say."

Regardless of her arrangements, Chen An looked at Chu Lexiao.

"Le Xiao, come here for a second."
