I'm Tired (3)

"Do you want me to purify you?" Ye Lang looked at Li Yue. Li Yue now had a bit of a Sleeping Beauty vibe, well, Sleeping Beauty, a beauty who had just woken up.

"No, I still prefer to do it myself! The normal way!!" Li Yue shook her head and said.

"Then hurry up, I'll go make some breakfast." As Ye Lang spoke, he took out a washbasin and used alchemy to condense a large basin of water for Li Yue to use.

"..." Li Yue stared blankly at the dressing table. She really wanted to know what other random things Ye Lang had in his Space Ring, such as this.

"What should we eat for breakfast? Cooking porridge seems too slow, let's have dumplings. Fatty made a lot for me." Ye Lang took out a pot and a small alchemical furnace, and started cooking dumplings on it.

"Li Yue, do you want soup or just the solid food?"

After the dumplings were cooked, Ye Lang noticed that Li Yue was still getting ready. It wasn't that Li Yue was slow; cooking dumplings doesn't take much time. It was just that Ye Lang felt it was slow.

Why are they still working on it? Women are such a hassle!!

"I like to eat it dry, with a little vinegar. Did you bring any vinegar?" Li Yue tied her hair into a simple ponytail and then came to Ye Lang's side.

"Of course I brought them, I have several jars!" Ye Lang said casually, and soon a small table, two chairs, chopsticks, bowls and mats appeared.

"... Wow, you really have everything!" Li Yue said with a touch of emotion after seeing this. Ye Lang really is like a general store, and a super general store at that, with everything.

"No, there are still many things I don't have, like..." Ye Lang began to list a bunch of things, all of which were very rare and priceless. He was just a Prodigal Son, not a god.

Some things are a matter of chance, not something you can force!

"Shut up and eat your dumplings!!" A black line appeared on Li Yue's forehead. She didn't want to discuss this issue with Ye Lang anymore. She hadn't meant it that way; she was just making a comment.

"Oh, I want some with soup, that'll make me feel better... Add some salt, some vinegar, some sesame oil, and some pepper..." After giving Li Yue a plate of dumplings, Ye Lang made himself a big bowl of dumplings and then added the ingredients to them.

"..." Li Yue looked at Ye Lang's bowl of dumplings and was tempted. After eating a few dumplings, she wanted to eat Ye Lang's bowl of dumplings with soup.

"I want to eat too!" Li Yue pointed to Ye Lang's bowl.

"That's all. Everything in the pot is here, and the water has been poured out..." Ye Lang shook his head. He had just put the things back in, and he could clean them up in a short time with the Purification Array.

"Then give me a few in your bowl..." Li Yue said immediately, but as soon as she said it, she realized that there was a big problem with what she said.

If she eats from Ye Lang's bowl, that would mean sharing a bowl with Ye Lang, something only very close people would do, and she clearly hasn't reached that level yet.

However, Ye Lang was definitely indifferent; he didn't care about this at all. He simply nodded and said, "Okay, I'll give you a few, and you can give me a few of yours too..."

While Ye Lang was speaking, he picked up his chopsticks, took a dumpling from Li Yue's plate, dipped it in a little vinegar, and put it in his mouth to eat.

"Waaah... This tastes pretty good too. Dumplings are really a wonderful thing. Whether you boil them, steam them, or have soup or not, they all taste different..." Ye Lang said, his words slightly slurred, because he still had a few small dumplings in his mouth.

Li Yue didn't see anything wrong with Ye Lang taking the dumplings from her plate. Although sharing a meal required a certain level of intimacy, these were dry dumplings, eaten separately.

"Do you want some? Here you go..." Ye Lang pushed the bowl to the middle, gesturing for Li Yue to eat.

"... Fine, I'll eat then. Am I afraid of you? I've eaten with others in the army before!" Li Yue gritted her teeth, then used the spoon Ye Lang gave her to eat, and even drank a few sips of soup.

At this moment, Li Yue's face was a little red, which made Ye Lang think that she might be feeling a little feverish because of drinking the soup.

Li Yue had eaten with other people in the army, but they were all women. In the army, men and women are generally separated, except for special units.

"How is it? It tastes great, right? Fatty's dumplings are always top-notch!" Ye Lang praised proudly.

"What are you so happy about? It's because Zhen Xiaoyan is a good cook, it has nothing to do with you!" Li Yue said somewhat unhappily. She felt that Ye Lang's praise of Zhen Xiaoyan was as if he were praising himself.

This is a very dangerous sign, indicating that he and Zhen Xiaoyan are inseparable and their relationship is far from simple.

"What do you mean it doesn't matter? Fatty is my lifelong cook, so she's very much my responsibility!" Ye Lang said.

"..." Li Yue remained silent. She had heard about this matter before and knew that Ye Lang had shamelessly tricked Zhen Xiaoyan into it.

"We're full, let's get going. By the way, Li Yue, do you want me to give you the Heavenly Mechanism Armor first? I'll take you to a town, and you Soaring Sky Empire by yourself." After packing his things, Ye Lang asked Li Yue about this, something they hadn't finished discussing last night.

"No, I want to watch you use the Heavenly Mechanism Armor. Otherwise, how will I know if you'll break Heavenly Mechanism Armor?" Li Yue shook her head, seemingly having made a decision.

Ye Lang frowned, thought for a moment, and said, "Alright! Let's go to the Tiger Tribe together then. You don't have anything to do anyway, so just consider it a few months of rest!"

Since Li Yue said so, Ye Lang let her have her way. After all, she was the owner of the Heavenly Mechanism Armor. As long as she was willing to lend it to him, he would let her look at it if she wanted.

"Okay!" Li Yue nodded.

"That's good. With you here, I shouldn't get lost!" Ye Lang said with a smile.

"Lost? What do you mean?" Li Yue was a little confused. Many people knew that Ye Lang could get lost, but only those who were close to Ye Lang knew about it.

"Getting lost means not knowing the way, not knowing where you'll end up," Ye Lang explained, though he seemed to be explaining the meaning of the word "lost."

"..." Forget it, I'm not going to talk to this confused guy anymore. There's no way to communicate with him.

"Li Yue, which direction is the Tiger Tribe?" Ye Lang asked. Fortunately, he asked Li Yue. If it were an ordinary person, it would be impossible to discern directions in the vast grasslands, let alone point out the Tiger Tribe.

"Go that way, once you leave this grassland you'll reach the border of the empire, and beyond that is the Everton Kingdom. Go through... ah..." Before Li Yue could finish speaking, Ye Lang picked her up, startling her.
