48: Chapter 46: Missing
48 -46: Missing
“Block spiritual power?” Lu Chen’s expression was rarely solemn, Su Mo always refreshed his understanding of her.
“Yes,” Su Mo nodded, she was also excited, “There are many recipes I can exchange with zombie heads, this is just one that I tricked out of Su Niang, I didn’t expect it to actually work.”
Last time the casually fried meat gave a prompt, so she also took a try-it-and-see attitude, there was no harm in it either way.
She didn’t avoid Jianxiong while doing these, the bull-strong man had said enough in the morning to make her accept him as one of her own.
“Sister…
this is completely different from last time,” and that magical warm current, Jianxiong examined the slice of meat finely, hoping to spot some clue.
“Jianxiong, let this remain within our stomachs,” Lu Chen put down his chopsticks, his deep blue cold eyes carrying a warning.
Jianxiong stiffened his back and said sternly, “Sister has confided this secret to me, I could never betray her.”
“Hahaha, come on, eat, my good ‘brother’,” Su Mo distributed most of the meat from the pan into their bowls, she was small and didn’t eat much, and although it was really tasty this time, eating too much would still be greasy.
“Sister, your brother will henceforth follow your lead,” within Jianxiong’s heart he couldn’t help but marvel, being able to make food into such a state truly refreshed his worldview, he started eating meat with big bites, cherishing Su Mo more and more.
Three large pieces of meat, Su Mo fried them quickly this time, planning to make it quick; if the smell spread, that could lead to trouble.
As she fried the meat, the steam from the pan washed over her face, leaving a thin layer of sweat.
Lu Chen watched her busy frying the meat in the steaming pan, pondered for a while, then took three cups out and filled them with some ice, the Ice Blade quickly conjured in his palm as he hustled with the cups.
Three cups of freshly made shaved ice were ready.
“Got sugar?” he asked, placing the cups on the table.
“Huh?” Su Mo glanced briefly while frying the meat, then immediately looked up excitedly, “Is that shaved ice?
You know how to make this too!”
“Yeah,” Lu Chen awkwardly looked away.
Jianxiong lifted his head from the bowl, the awkwardness on the man’s face and the suspicious blush on his ears made it hard for him to swallow his meat.
His boss had definitely opened up.
“Yeah, yeah, yeah.”
Just as the last batch of meat was finished, Su Mo turned off the stove and took a pack of sugar from the seasoning rack.
Tearing open the packet, she sprinkled some into the cups, Lu Chen handed her a metal spoon.
Su Mo scooped a spoonful into her mouth and enjoyed it with squinted eyes, the greasiness in her mouth completely vanished.
Seeing her eat the ice with the craving of a little cat, the man’s eyes deepened and he swallowed, leaning down to also taste a spoonful of the ice.
Very sweet.
The three of them filled themselves up, this time Jianxiong took the initiative to wash the pan, while Su Mo and Lu Chen took a short break before preparing to go downstairs for a run.
Before leaving, she especially cleared out her returned backpack, taking ten packs of sanitary pads from the System Bag and stuffing them inside.
“Why bring these?”
Lu Chen again saw the familiar little rabbit bread chunks; he remembered she had been upset about them last time, his Space still contained many of these.
“For Su Niang, today’s meat was obtained by exchanging these,” Su Mo packed the bag and slung it on her back, planning to deliver them to her after the run.
“Yeah,”
Lu Chen, knowing better, didn’t ask any further, his experience told him she would turn against him if he pressed about the rabbit.
As they left the house, they ran into Mo Yan, his gentle face was filled with seriousness.
“Momo”
He stopped in front of her.
Lu Chen pulled her behind him and coldly asked, “What’s the matter?”
“Mengyao has disappeared,” he said.
He had gone out today to look for supplies and hadn’t taken Chu Mengyao with him, only to find she was missing when he returned.
“She didn’t come back?” Su Mo peered out, asking.
She had only instructed Jianxiong to drop the person off the building; she wouldn’t be so foolish as to openly kill someone on someone else’s territory.
“Someone said they saw…
you abusing her,” Mo Yan hesitated, sharing what he had heard from others, unsure of its authenticity, but he needed to ask.
What he didn’t expect was Su Mo’s straightforward admission.
“Yes, I drilled a hole in her head,” Su Mo pointed at her forehead and smiled, “She keeps bothering me; I was merely disciplining her.”

“She is kind-hearted, Momo; you shouldn’t treat her badly because of me,”
More importantly, Chu Mengyao was the only female Water Element Superpower User in his team, how could he not be anxious.
The smile on Su Mo’s face faded, and she stepped out from behind Lu Chen to walk up to him, “Senior, I think not only are you blind now, but your brain also seems to be malfunctioning.”
“I didn’t kill her.
As for where she went, instead of stirring up trouble by asking me, someone who’s lived here so long, why not ask those criminals?” Su Mo scoffed with a look of detachment.
“Why have you become like this now” Mo Yan’s face was full of disbelief, and he grabbed her shoulders emotionally out of control, “Are you blaming me for abandoning you back then?
Momo, Mengyao had injured her leg at that time, and you also…”
Su Mo frowned, her shoulder pained from being grabbed.
“Enough,” Lu Chen saw his hand on the girl’s shoulder and his face instantly grew stern, and he coldly reprimanded.
With the remarkable strength he had honed over the years, he caught Mo Yan’s hand, pulled him away, and flung him aside.
Excruciating pain shot through his wrist, and the immense force made him involuntarily retreat several meters, stopping only when he hit the wall.
Even with Su Mo’s usual good temper, she couldn’t tolerate Mo Yan’s inappropriate behavior today, “Does everyone think I’m easy to bully?
Why are you all troubling me?”
Standing beside Lu Chen, she faced Mo Yan, her cute face filled with scorn, “Mo Yan, I won’t deny I had a crush on you before, but it was fleeting.
If you think green tea tastes good, keep drinking it.”
“Besides, I spared you and Chu Mengyao’s life; you should thank me for not taking her life,”
Her words poured out like a string of beans, leaving Mo Yan speechless.
Su Mo finally sighed, turned her head to Lu Chen, and smile brightly, “Let’s go.”
The two of them left one after the other.
Mo Yan stood against the wall for a moment, the discomfort in his heart growing stronger.
Why was Su Mo, who had been obedient and lovable before the apocalypse, so different now?
Where had things gone wrong?
“You had a crush on him?” Lu Chen walked beside her, his tone flat.
Su Mo keenly smelt the dangerous tone in the air.
She stopped, looked up at Lu Chen, and playfully tugged at his clothes, “I did, but I didn’t like him.
Compared to you, Admiral, it’s like heaven and earth.
If I were to like anyone, it would definitely be you.”
As for Mo Yan, she had given up on him on the day they watched the movie; some things are shattered even before they begin.
Though there was a hint of flattery in her words, Lu Chen couldn’t help but smile slightly — Su Mo always knew how to stroke his ego successfully.
