Chapter 9 Becoming a Companion
  Su Ziying frowned: "What conditions?"

Seeing her wary look, Chen Li shook his head and said, "Don't worry, I won't do anything to you."

"First of all, you can't do anything to me after you regain your strength."

Although Chen Li had a clear conscience, he remembered Su Ziying's angry look just now. Considering her character, it was hard to say whether she would cut herself to pieces after regaining her strength.

Sure enough, as soon as these words came out, Su Ziying fell silent.

Seeing her hesitation, Chen Li couldn't help but twitching his eyebrows and complained in his heart.

What are you really planning to do to me? !
  Seemingly determined, Su Ziying hesitated for a while, then reluctantly gritted her teeth and said, "...Okay!"

Seeing this, Chen Li breathed a sigh of relief and continued: "Secondly, after you regain your strength, I need you to protect me for a while."

Hearing this, Su Ziying's face was filled with black lines.

Not only can I not retaliate against you, but you also want me to protect you? !
  She subconsciously opened her mouth to refuse.

But thinking about his current situation, he still changed his mind with trembling.

"……it is good!"

He still said it through gritted teeth.

"The third one is about the time of protection."

"By the way, speaking of time, I haven't asked you how long it will take to regain your strength."

Hearing this, Su Ziying estimated the extent of her injury and said, "It will take at least four months to fully recover..."

"Less than three hundred days, that's good." Chen Li made the "three" sign and said, "The period of time you protect me starts from today and ends in three hundred days."

"Don't think three hundred days is a long time. It will take time for me to help you recover. If you subtract four months to help you recover, you will only be protecting me for six months."

"can."

This time, Su Ziying agreed simply.

Three hundred days to go...

Ha ha……

After I recover, if I can protect you for three days, my surname will not be Su!
  Chen Li didn't know what she was thinking and looked at her in surprise.

But no matter what, she just agreed.

"In the end, this is no longer a condition."

Chen Li stretched out his hand and said with a smile: "In that period of time, we are living together as companions. If you need any other help, I will help you. Correspondingly, I also hope that you can help me if I need it, not The restraint is only limited to protecting or restoring strength."

Companions who help each other and live together?
  Did he really believe that he would keep his promise?

Seeing Chen Li's smile, Su Ziying was stunned for a moment.

She had to admit that Chen Li was indeed the most handsome boy she had ever seen.

It's a pity that he is an old human being.

"Ah."

Su Ziying's emotions were complicated, but her face remained cold.

She stretched out her hand and shook Chen Li briefly.

"Goo~"

Suddenly, a sound came from Su Ziying's stomach.

This made her expression freeze instantly.

What is this sound? !

It took her a second to react.

She had heard this sound when she was little.

It's the sound of hunger...

And as the sound sounded, Su Ziying realized belatedly that she had an empty feeling in her stomach at this moment.

"Are you hungry? Here you go."

Seeing this, Chen Li took a bag of bread from the table beside the bed.

This kind of dry bread has a shelf life of up to one year. Although it tastes average, it can still satisfy your hunger.

"Be careful not to spill crumbs on the bed."

"Here it is, why don't you pick it up?"

Seeing Su Ziying's hesitation, Chen Li said: "You can eat it. You don't have to force yourself to say thank you. I don't need to either. I won't make fun of you for this."

Thinking that the two of them would live together in the future, Chen Li felt that it was necessary to explain.

"As for me, I will treat others the same way they treat me."

"The reason why I teased you earlier is that I couldn't understand the words you said to me during the day, and your attitude." ˆ ˆ ˆ "What's wrong with the new human race? Don't you still need the help of me, the old human race?"

"Human beings can only go further if they help each other."

"You can maintain your new human arrogance in front of others, but you do the same to me, and I don't like it."

Hearing this, Su Ziying looked into Chen Li's eyes.

For some reason, this time she didn't resent what Chen Li said, but actually felt it made sense.

Indeed, she looked down on him too much before.

But she is a new human being...

Forget it...

She still understands the principle of living under someone else's roof.

At least for now, she did need his help.

Moreover, he is qualified to be involved in the strange invasion incident with him.

Let’s not treat him as an ordinary old human being.

Well, special old humans.

Higher than regular old humans.

After setting up Chen Li as a special old human, Su Ziying suddenly felt that what Chen Li had done to her before became more acceptable.

"it is good."

Su Ziying took the bread, tore it open awkwardly, and then ate it in small bites.

The long-lost feeling of chewing food made her feel excited.

I'm hungry...

How long has it been since you felt this way?

As a genius among the new humans, she reached a state where she no longer needed to eat very early.

Some new humans are still addicted to delicious food even if they are not hungry.

In the past, Su Ziying was a little scornful, thinking that they were just vulgar people among the new humans.

Her pride as a new human made her never eat again after ineding, in order to further distinguish herself from the old humans.

Come to think of it, she hasn't eaten in ten years.

She hadn't eaten in years, and now she was extremely hungry.

When she ate bread for the first time, the sweetness of starch being secreted into glucose by enzymes in her mouth even made her taste buds experience an unprecedented wonderful taste.

In Chen Li's opinion, the dry bread tasted ordinary, but in Su Ziying's case, it became an unforgettable delicacy.

Seeing Su Ziying's happy expression, Chen Li couldn't help but be stunned for a moment.

How delicious is this thing?

Or is dry bread the ultimate delicacy in this world?
  In doubt, Chen Li took another one and took a bite himself.

Ok.

OK, it tastes just average, just ordinary bread, and it's a bit stuffy to the throat.

Soon, Su Ziying finished one.

Her eyes were involuntarily attracted to the bitten piece of bread in Chen Li's hand, and she quickly retracted it.

Seeing this, Chen Li asked: "Is it delicious? Want another one?"

Su Ziying's face was expressionless: "Huh! Just bread, it tastes just like that, how can it be delicious! But now I urgently need to eat to replenish energy, and I have no choice but to bite the bullet and eat..."

Before she could finish speaking, Chen Li took another piece of bread and stuffed it into her hand.

Chen Li looked at Su Ziying tearing open the bread. She obviously wanted to eat quickly, but was afraid that she would be thought to like eating so she deliberately stuttered. She wanted to laugh a little.

He could even eat a piece of bread like this. He wondered what Su Ziying had eaten before.
  Is it possible that the new humans have special food that they have to eat but it is unpalatable?
  Chen Li watched Su Ziying quietly eating.

Su Ziying was obsessed with bread and didn't pay attention to Chen Li's gaze.

After Su Ziying finished eating, Chen Li poured a glass of water for her.

This time, she said "thank you."

Chen Li raised his eyebrows, a little surprised, and smiled: "You're welcome."

"call……"

After eating and drinking, Su Ziying felt much better.

Chen Li took the cup, put it on the table, looked at Su Ziying and said, "Now you can tell me, what exactly did you encounter just now, that is, before you came here..."
