It's broken! I was targeted by the villain after the apocalypse

It is not groundless to say that the chefs in Yuncheng are not easy to mess with.

In the early years, when people's living standards had not yet improved, supplies were scarce and people could not get enough food.

In order to survive, the people of Yuncheng rely on the mountains for their livelihood and have developed hunting skills.

The most common foods, apart from the mushrooms that can be found everywhere in the forest, are sturdy and ferocious wild beasts.

At that time, there was no mature cold chain transportation for raw materials and private breeding was not allowed.

Chefs who value the freshness of ingredients would rather pick up their own machetes and hunt the parts of the wild animals they need for themselves or their customers, rather than waiting for hunters to deliver the smelly pieces of meat to their doorsteps.

Of course, this is no longer possible now. Any wild animal you encounter may be a protected animal.

Many local delicacies in Yuncheng have been gradually lost, but the fighting skills have been passed down through the inheritance of chefs.

It is said that some gangsters once hijacked the Yuncheng Hotel and took everyone in the hotel as hostages, but three of them were killed by the chef.

The chef from Yuncheng became famous overnight and his reputation spread far and wide.

The chef of Hulushan Hotel is named Wu Hu. He is two meters tall and weighs three hundred kilograms.

It is no exaggeration to say that if he had been there that day, Boss Zhou would not have died.

Unfortunately, in order to make up for his mistake, Zhou Yuan closed the hotel for one day.

"You're the one who's causing trouble, right?" Wu Hu walked around the cart and surrounded Xu Zhaoxin with his strong body.

Xu Zhaoxin's face turned pale, and he kept saying, "Misunderstanding, brother. It's all a misunderstanding."

Wu Hu patted Xu Zhaoxin's face with his palm as big as a palm leaf fan: "You pushed the food cart in front of me, and you still say it's not a provocation?"

The pressure was so strong that Xu Zhaoxin was so scared that she could hardly hold back her tears. She had to call for help: "Liu Jinan, save me!"

For Duan Haiping's sake, Liu Jinan coughed twice and said, "Uncle Wu, let him go. He has no ill intentions."

Since Zhou Yuan's death, Zhang Yaoyao has become the owner of Hulushan Hotel.

Zhang Yaoyao highly respected Liu Jinan, and even the old employees like him were very polite to Liu Jinan and his colleagues.

Hearing this, Wu Hu stared at Xu Zhaoxin with his leopard eyes and reluctantly took two steps back.

Without the imminent pressure, Xu Zhaoxin gasped for breath, not daring to look Wu Hu in the eye, and pushed the cart dejectedly: "I'll leave now."

As the saying goes, every failure is a learning experience.

Xu Zhaoxin finally discovered that Liu Jinan deliberately did not add Mr. Duan as a friend, and he really couldn't understand why.

He didn't dare to ask Duan Haiping, so he had to wait at the door of the hotel the next day and caught Liu Jinan to ask him: "What do you want me to do in order for you to add Mr. Duan as your friend?"

Liu Jinan was silent. To be honest, he had not yet figured out how to face Duan Haiping.

Every time he spoke to Duan Haiping and heard the man's familiar yet unfamiliar voice, the surging emotions in his heart had reached the point of being on the verge of getting out of control.

He could no longer tell whether this was his own emotion or was influenced by the content of the novel.

What's more, tomorrow is the time when the apocalypse breaks out in the novel, the magnetic field will be disrupted, and all communication equipment will fail.

He would not reveal information about the end of the world to anyone except Duan Haiping, so he could only refuse: "That's not necessary."

"Please, I beg you," Xu Zhaoxin said in a soft voice, "You know what happened that day. It was me who suggested that you add each other as friends. If you refuse to add Mr. Duan, he will not let me go after I return!"

In just two days, the once bright and handsome Xu Zhaoxin became so worried that his eyes were dark and his beard was untidy.

Even Liu Jinan, who was determined, felt a little reluctant.

"You can add him, but you and Yang Shu must return to Kyoto immediately." Liu Jinan hesitated for a long time, but finally agreed.

But he had his own demands.

Xu Zhaoxin looked embarrassed. He and Yang Shu's mission was to take Liu Jinan back to Kyoto.

If they fail to complete the task, they will be punished when they return, and he doesn't want this to affect his promotion.

Xu Zhaoxin rolled his eyes and made up his mind: "Okay, Yang Shu and I will return immediately."

At worst, he can find a place to hide for a few days. Even if Liu Jinan finds out later and blocks Duan Haiping, it can't be blamed on him!

Liu Jinan took out his mobile phone, scanned the QR code shown by Xu Zhaoxin, and pressed the button to send the application.

It was passed in seconds.

Liu Jinan paused and subconsciously wanted to put his phone away.

"It's all passed. Just make a video call so I can report back." Xu Zhaoxin quickly stopped him.

Make a video call to Duan Haiping?

Impossible, absolutely impossible, he is not mentally prepared yet!

The next moment, the other party sent him a video call invitation, which scared him so much that he almost couldn't hold the phone.

Xu Zhaoxin didn't expect the boss to be so proactive. He took advantage of Liu Jinan's restlessness and pressed the answer button.

The image of Duan Haiping's bedroom immediately appeared on the phone screen.

[This was the first time Liu Jinan came to Duan Haiping's bedroom.

The layout of the bedroom is very simple, even to the point of having a shabby feel that doesn't match Duan Haiping's status.

The thick curtains covered the entire wall, preventing even a ray of light from penetrating. The only source of light was the ubiquitous incandescent lamp on the ceiling.

Duan Haiping doesn't like anyone entering his bedroom, including interior designers and decorators.

Therefore, there are no warm colors in his room. All you can see are metal furniture, which is extremely dull.

"Very disappointed?" Duan Haiping's low voice sounded, and his cold eyes looked at the young man in front of him without any hesitation.

Like a cold and poisonous snake, it is staring at its prey.

Liu Jinan's hair stood on end and he wanted countless times to escape from this dark space and this powerful but cold man.

But he can't.

He forced a smile and pretended to have no grudges, "No, I like it here very much."

Who would like it here?

It's like a tomb. 】

Just like what was described in the novel, the pale incandescent light could not completely dispel the darkness in the room, and Duan Haiping's face was vaguely visible in the darkness.

Although it was a handsome face with no flaws, the dark color behind it still made people feel scared.

Liu Jinan's eyes swept across the other person's tall nose: "Duan Haiping, I heard that you wanted to see me?"

Duan Haiping was silent for a moment, as if he didn't expect Liu Jinan to be so direct.

Then he slowly said, "Indeed, I really want to know who dares to play such a big joke on me."

"I never joke." Liu Jinan chuckled, "But I'm afraid Mr. Duan won't get what he wants. Yuncheng has something very important to me. I have to stay here for a while."

Duan Haiping frowned slightly. The grass on the grave of the last person who rejected him was already three meters high.

His eyes narrowed dangerously.

Xu Zhaoxin, who was standing by, was so frightened that he dared not even breathe. He knew that Mr. Duan's expression meant that he was very angry.

He quickly tugged at Liu Jinan's sleeve and whispered, "Don't make the boss angry. He won't be as polite to you as I am."

Liu Jinan pursed his lips and said nothing.

He could indeed follow Xu Zhaoxin to Kyoto, seek Duan Haiping's protection, and even use Duan Haiping's resources to take a shortcut to becoming stronger.

But that also means that he will miss a lot of opportunities.

God gave him a book of supernatural powers and granted him the ability to know the plot. How could he waste it?

He wanted to control his own destiny. He no longer wanted to watch death coming and be powerless!

"I'll give you one more chance," he heard the man's cold temptation, "Whether what you said is true or false, come to me, I can protect you."

Liu Jinan's lips curled up slightly, but the smile did not reach his eyes: "Say it a few more times, I will give the same answer."

"I have my own path to follow, and I will never look back, even if it means death."
