After enjoying the delicious food, Lin Xiaoxiao was not stingy with her praise, and even discussed with Wang Ying whether she could recommend two chefs who could cook with ingredients from exotic animals.

"Sister, you know that my shelter doesn't have many talented people. The situation in the wild is getting more dangerous day by day. I have no choice but to speak to you shamelessly."

Lin Xiaoxiao looked pitiful, but her eyes were full of tenacity and longing: "The Wang family is a benevolent family that has been passed down for hundreds of years. Sister Wang, you are a beautiful and kind person. Please give our Hope Sanctuary a chance to survive."

In order to discover talents, Lin Xiaoxiao shamelessly used the method of acting like a spoiled child, and sure enough, Wang Ying's expression was somewhat moved.

"Sister Wang, can I..."

Before Lin Xiaoxiao could quote the price she wanted to pay for hiring talent, the bead curtain in the restaurant was suddenly opened by a pair of fair hands. The jade beads made a tinkling sound, which immediately attracted everyone's attention.

Receiving Wang Ying's slightly blaming look, the housekeeper who came in immediately took a deep breath and slowed down her pace.

In the Wang family, every servant has to undergo six months to three years of training before taking up the post, which includes etiquette for walking, sitting and lying down, as well as house rules. One of the rules requires that no one in the Wang family is allowed to run around or shout. She almost rushed in just now.

Glancing at Lin Xiaoxiao who was still in the restaurant, the housekeeper stood silently behind Wang Ying and reminded softly: "Madam, a guest is coming."

Guests? Guests coming so early in the morning? This is not a good omen!

Although it was just a short sentence, Lin Xiaoxiao already knew that something might have happened to the Wang family, so she immediately stood up and said goodbye: "Sister Wang, I'm done eating and will go back to my room first."

Nodding, Wang Ying showed a decent smile: "Okay, I will ask the chef responsible for making mutant food to find you later. You can discuss the specific cooperation and talent recommendation with Chef Yu in detail."

Hearing this, Lin Xiaoxiao's smile immediately brightened: "Okay, thank you Sister Wang."

Originally, she thought that Wang Ying, the chef of the Wang family, might not have time to take care of her own affairs, but she didn't expect that there would be an unexpected surprise.

Standing in a corner of the garden, Lin Xiaoxiao watched Wang Ying, the housekeeper, and Wang Luo leave and couldn't help wondering: Who on earth would come to cause trouble so early in the morning?

The Wang family is a family with a history of hundreds of years. Even in the end times, they can still stand at the center of power. Ordinary forces simply don’t have the courage to provoke them, so the people who came today must be the most powerful people in the official shelter.

Lin Xiaoxiao knew very well that such a fight was not something she could participate in, so after some guessing, she strolled back to the courtyard. At this time, a tall figure in a black chef's uniform was standing under the bamboo forest outside her room.

"Chef Yu?"

About three or five meters away, Lin Xiaoxiao called out tentatively, and the person who had been looking up at the sky immediately turned around and looked at her. It was a very young baby face, but a pair of upturned peach blossom eyes diluted the childishness of the baby face.

At this moment, those peach blossom eyes showed a hint of annoyance: "Are you looking for a chef who can make mutant food?"

Chef Yu spoke in a low and clear voice, which made Lin Xiaoxiao show her white teeth immediately: "Yes, I want to hire a few chefs who can make mutant food to teach at our Hope Shelter. The price is negotiable."

Although they were discussing business, their pair of dark eyes were staring at Chef Yu without blinking.

She had seen mature ladies and sweet girls, but this was the first time she had seen a girl like Chef Yu who was tall, cute, but also had a capable and refreshing temperament.

To be honest, Lin Xiaoxiao was a little stunned because of her peach blossom eyes and her mixed temperament.

Perhaps because he was being watched too closely, Chef Yu immediately took two steps back and looked alert: "Are you just hiring? How long will you be hiring me?"

Thinking about the people in her shelter, Lin Xiaoxiao held up three fingers and said, "Three months, just three months. If by then there are people in our shelter who can independently research and make mutant food, there is no need to renew the contract."

This was the condition that Lin Xiaoxiao had thought of last night. Three months of training and generous remuneration were definitely generous rewards for a chef, but the next moment she heard a resounding rejection.

"Don't go!"

Yu Xiang took a step forward with a tense expression and stared at Lin Xiaoxiao: "If you want me to train a chef, you can send the person who needs training here. You can come and pick him up in person in three months."

"Why? Are you afraid that I might treat your people badly?"

Seeing the angry and aggrieved expression on Chef Yu Xiangyu's face, Lin Xiaoxiao immediately guessed that something must have happened before that made this chef so resistant to transferring his people out.

In the end times, people going missing is a common occurrence, so Chef Yu must be worried about leaving people to him.

Taking two steps forward and getting closer to Yu Xiang, Lin Xiaoxiao raised her head slightly, revealing a pair of red eyes, and pursed her lips as if she was trying hard to hold back tears.

“I know that asking for three months is a bit too much.

But we hope that there are hundreds of people in the shelter waiting for food, half of whom are elderly, children and women. In order to save food, they sometimes only eat one meal in three days. I..."

At this point, Lin Xiaoxiao lowered her eyes and pretended to wipe her tears, her shoulders shaking, and she looked like she was crying miserably.

"Don't cry." Yu Xiang came over and said this dryly, his hands unconsciously groping in his pockets.

"Here, give you some candy."

Looking at the lollipop handed to her and Yu Xiang's bewildered expression, Lin Xiaoxiao couldn't help but sigh in her heart that she was such a bad person for deceiving such a sincere person.

But she really couldn't agree to the conditions proposed by Yu Xiang. What she wanted was not for the people in her shelter to learn how to make mutant food, but for them to learn the concept of utilizing mutant plants and animals.

For example, how to select mutated animals and plants that can be used, and how to deal with the polluting elements contained in mutated animals and plants.

These are what she wants, so she has to take the chef away.

Of course, Lin Xiaoxiao was not someone who would take advantage of others for no reason. The mutant plants and animals that the Hope Shelter could come into contact with were far beyond what the chefs in the official shelter could compare to. It was possible that they could innovate more mutant foods when they went to the Hope Shelter.

Lin Xiaoxiao took the lollipop and put it in her pocket, then looked at Yu Xiang with red eyes: "I know that trust is the most precious thing in the end times.

But Sister Yu, if we really have food to feed everyone in the shelter, why would I come to you for the method of making mutant food?

I don’t know whether mutated food is harmful to the human body, I only know that it is the hope for people to survive.”

At the end of her speech, Lin Xiaoxiao wiped away the tears from the corners of her eyes with some surprise. She actually cried with a trembling voice and a sore nose.

It was also at this time that she realized that the fear and despair brought by the end of the world had never gone away, but were suppressed deep in her heart and would emerge at any time.

In the end times, who can remain immune?
