The time soon came to two o'clock in the afternoon, and strangely there was no call today.

Everyone was basically awake at this time. Aunt Ji and A Lan had been preparing for a long time and were waiting for the call to bake bread and stir-fry vegetables.

Others went out for a day of running yesterday and were covered in sweat. They were all waiting for the electricity to be turned on at 2pm to take a hot shower.

Now it's fine, nothing can be done without power.

In the hall on the first floor, Chen Yiren asked Aunt Ji to fry the vegetables on the stove first. As for baking bread, let's spread the pancake instead! Anyway, let everyone eat lunch first.

Chen Lu and Chen Shuang were also sitting on the sofa in the hall, looking depressed.

The electricity is gone for only one hour every day. What can they do?

Except for Su Keke and Grandma Qiao upstairs, everyone ran downstairs holding candles to inquire about the situation.

"Why is it still no power at two o'clock?"

Axun scratched his messy hair. He was waiting for a call to wash his hair.

"Yes! I took off all my clothes and planned to take a nice hot bath!"

John was wearing a bathrobe and standing at the stairs of the second floor with most of his chest exposed and complained.

"Based on the situation yesterday, many places must have been attacked by poisonous bees. Will there be no power in the future?"

Shanna frowned and said as she walked down the stairs.

"Then what should we do? There is no food and no electricity. Doesn't this push people to a dead end?"

Leah had a sad look on her face. It had been foggy outside for a week. People were still unable to go out, and the supermarkets were closed. Both she and Kenting could hardly hold on.

Dr. Huang originally wanted to take a hot bath while the call came, but he seemed to have expected the lack of power. After all, the hospital and the police station were attacked by poisonous bees yesterday.

Then the town's power supply station will definitely not be able to escape.

He was thinking about those people who were still hiding in the hospital, what would happen if they faced a sudden power outage?

It might be a better choice for him and Shanna to follow Chen Yiren out.

At least it's not surrounded by those bees yet.

Seeing that everyone was complaining and panicking, Chen Yiren came out of the kitchen and comforted her, "Don't worry, everyone, there may be electricity soon. Aunt Ji is already cooking on the stove, and we will all eat together later."

When Chen Yiren said they were going to eat together, she looked at Fei Xun and Liya specifically, and her intention was very clear, that she wanted them to eat together.

"Thank you, Sister Yiren. I'll go up and call Wanying down."

Fei Xun is worried about what to eat for lunch! They had finished eating their instant noodles yesterday, and the only two boxes of biscuits left were eaten by him and Wanying before going downstairs.

Because when I first woke up, I found that I was so hungry!

"Yiren, Kendin and I are here to eat. Is your food enough?"

Lia was a little embarrassed because she knew that Chen Yiren didn't have much inventory left. And she also has to support so many employees in the B&B.

"Leah, it's okay. You two can just come! After the food is finished, we can all figure out a solution together."

Chen Yiren came over and patted Lia on the shoulder, smiled and told him to call Kendin down quickly, and dinner would be served later.

Hearing what Chen Yiren said, Lia's mood immediately improved. Like Fei Xun, she went upstairs to call for someone.

"Aunt Ji! How are the shortbreads going?" Chen Yiren walked into the kitchen again and asked.

Under the dim candlelight, Aunt Ji and Alan rolled out the previous bread-shaped cake into a thin layer of cake.

The other one was swinging the pan, and the pancake skin in the pan was shaking. It looked like he was making flying pancakes from Asan Kingdom.

"Alan, I didn't expect you to be so good at cooking!"

Chen Yiren watched A Lan swinging the pan, and occasionally flipping the pan. This action was done in one go, which was very handsome.

"That's right, I've been learning from Aunt Ji for almost two months. Aunt Ji said that I'm good at making pancakes. Hehe..."

A Lan was so flattered by Chen Yiren's praise that she became even more enthusiastic about shaking the pot.

"Ouch! Ah Lan, don't throw my cake away!"

Aunt Ji, who was rolling out dough on the side, said with a smile.

She told Chen Yiren to just roll out the pie crust on her hand and let A Lan fry it before dinner was ready.

Only then did Chen Yiren remember that Su Keke and Grandma Qiao had not gone downstairs. She wondered if they were not awake yet? Otherwise, if there was no call at two o'clock, I would definitely have to go downstairs and ask.

"I'll go upstairs and call Su Keke! When you two are ready, take the food to the small restaurant."

After Chen Yiren finished speaking, she carried her small lantern and went upstairs.

Su Keke and Grandma Qiao had eaten and drank enough, and were now playing chess with Grandma Qiao.

The fact that there was no call at two o'clock had no effect on them anyway. Besides, Su Keke also expected that there would be no power, so she didn't think about asking.

Grandma Qiao said that playing a few games of chess after dinner would help with digestion.

"General!"

Grandma Qiao's "car" directly collided with Su Keke's "general".

Just when Su Keke was about to retreat to the left, she realized that Grandma Qiao's "cannon" was waiting for her on the left, staring at her through a "horse". The right position has been blocked by her own "shi".

"Oh...why did I lose again...and lost three games in a row? Oh my God, I won't play anymore. I'll just play half a card next time."

Su Keke muttered to himself with an unconvinced look.

"It seems like you didn't win much on the second half!"

Grandma Qiao glanced at Su Keke with a smile and put the chess pieces into a wooden box.

"Then at least I have won. I haven't won the whole game. This is a huge blow to my self-confidence."

Su Keke stood up from the chair and lay down on his bed. Tangyuan was still scratching hard on the tablet with its little fat claws.

When she was playing chess with Grandma Qiao, she found a fruit-cutting game for the glutinous rice balls.

It's a game where fruits fall from the screen and can be cut with a swipe of your finger. Tangyuan is a great time to play.

At this moment, there was a knock on the door.

Then Chen Yiren's voice came over, "Su Keke! Grandma Qiao! Are you awake?"

As soon as Su Keke heard this, he quickly brought the glutinous rice balls and tablets into the space, and then came out alone.

After Grandma Qiao put away the chess, she went to open the door.

"It's Yiren! Do you have anything to do with us?"

Grandma Qiao asked.

"It's like this. I don't know what happened today. I haven't received a call at this time. We made lunch on the stove and wanted you to go down and have some."

Chen Yiren said with a smile while holding a lantern.

"Sister Yiren, we have already eaten the bread. You don't have to be so polite and come to call us specially."

Su Keke walked out of the room and said.

"It's not a good thing. Let's just have a simple meal together. Don't be polite to us. I haven't officially thanked you for what happened yesterday."

After Chen Yiren finished speaking, she went downstairs first.

Su Keke and Grandma Qiao looked at each other and thought it was okay to go down. By the way, they talked about seeing someone going to the supermarket to get supplies.

She believed that smart people would not just sit at home and wait for death.
