243 Mutated Cake?
Over the next few days, Wang Ran switched between recuperating and being exhausted.
Fortunately, his new partners, Lu Shuangshuang and Zhou Meng, were not very strong. If they were as strong as Xiaoyu, Wang Ran would probably be stuck in bed.
As usual, Lin Momo started to patrol the island.
Early in the morning, Wang Ran went out with Tang Tang.
Momo had no idea if he was going to rest or exercise.
She first went to the kitchen.
Every day’s food was different. What to eat in the morning, what to eat in the afternoon, what to eat in the evening. All of it had to be carefully planned.
Since Wang Ran needed extra nourishment as of late, a pot of ginseng and wolfberry chicken stew every day became a necessity.
When Lin Momo reached the kitchen door, Zhou Meng suddenly stopped her.
“Momo, I’ll be in charge of the kitchen today.
“You should go somewhere else!”
Zhou Meng blocked Lin Momo’s way to the kitchen.
Lin Momo was stunned.
This…
Had Wang Ran given her management rights over the kitchen to the newcomer, Zhou Meng?
Lin Momo’s heart ached.
‘I’m the head maid!
‘If I can’t even manage the kitchen, how could I be considered the head maid…
‘Has Master been smitten by this nun. Was she being gradually stripped of her power?
‘No, no, no!
‘Master must be feeling sorry for me, so he wants to take some pressure off me.
‘Yes, that must be it.’
Lin Momo felt much better at the thought of this.
“Then I’ll go elsewhere first.”
Lin Momo walked to the warehouse, swinging her arms.
It was her routine to go to the warehouse twice a day to check on the stock.
Lin Momo saw Liu Shiyao in a panic as soon as she arrived at the warehouse.
“Ah, it’s Momo!
“I’ll take care of the warehouse today. You go and get some rest!”
Liu Shiyao quickly pushed Lin Momo out.
Lin Momo was stunned.
What was going on?
The warehouse had always been her job!
‘Why wasn’t Liu Shiyao at the laboratory today? Why did she come here to steal my job?’
This wasn’t normal!
Lin Momo glanced at the warehouse behind Liu Shiyao and saw a few boxes that she had never seen before.
Were there any new supplies in the warehouse? She didn’t even know…
Liu Shiyao saw Lin Momo looking inside and immediately blocked her view.
“Momo, you should go somewhere else. Go for a swim or a walk to relax.”
Liu Shiyao continued to push Lin Momo out.
Although Lin Momo was more powerful than Liu Shiyao, she didn’t want to fight her friend. She left the warehouse quietly.
The kitchen was like this, and so was the warehouse…
Was Wang Ran stripping her of her management rights?
Thinking about it, it really was possible…
In the past two days, Wang Ran had only pampered her once…
Had she really fallen out of favor?
Lin Momo turned around and left the warehouse with a sad face.
Xiaojin and the gorilla were playing by the pool outside. When they saw Lin Momo, they immediately hid.
Even Xiaoyu and Ada, who were whispering to each other, stopped when they saw Lin Momo.
“Am I being paranoid?
“Why is everyone avoiding me…?”
Lin Momo was on the verge of tears.
During this period of time, she had been doing her best to take care of everything concerning the base and everyone else.
She didn’t expect everyone to start distancing themselves from her.
Lin Momo quietly went to the top floor of the main building and looked at the calm sea.
After crying for a while, Lin Momo fell asleep on the recliner.
She was usually too busy and rarely had time to slack off like this.
She could finally have a good sleep today.
When she woke up, the sky was already orange-red and the sun was setting.
It was very lively downstairs, but Lin Momo felt very lonely.
When the sun had completely disappeared, Lin Momo left the top floor and went downstairs.
The dining room was brightly lit, and little colored balls were hung on the surrounding trees and by the pool.
The entire atmosphere belonged to a festival.
The happy atmosphere formed a sharp contrast with the lonely Lin Momo.
“Momo, come here quickly!”
Su Xiaoyu saw Lin Momo and went up to her to hold her arms.
“We’ve spent a lot of time and effort to set this up!
“Do you think it looks good?” Su Xiaoyu asked.
“It’s nice…”
Lin Momo nodded.
It was indeed beautiful, but she wasn’t involved at all…
In the past, she would definitely be in charge of such work, but now, she didn’t even have the opportunity to participate.
Was she really being marginalized…
“Hey, is Master not back yet?”
Lin Momo let go of the loneliness in her heart and asked about Wang Ran.
“Her should be here soon!
“Come, come, come over here first.”
Su Xiaoyu and Liu Shiyao held Lin Momo’s arms and walked to the edge of the cliff.
“We can start now!” Su Xiaoyu said mysteriously through the walkie-talkie.
“Start? Start what?” Lin Momo asked in a daze.
As soon as she finished speaking, a pillar of fire shot into the sky!
The pillar of fire suddenly exploded when it reached a height of tens of meters!
It looked like a blooming chrysanthemum!
Then, pillars of fire shot up into the sky, one after another.
The surface of the sea was completely illuminated by the fireworks.
Lin Momo could vaguely see a person standing on the sea…
It was Wang Ran!
“Why is Master down there…
“Ah, is he setting off the fireworks?”
Lin Momo was a little surprised.
“Happy Birthday!”
“Happy Birthday!”
Zhou Meng was holding a small cupcake with a candle on it. The flame was dancing happily.
“Ah… This is…”
Lin Momo was stunned. Birthday?
It seemed like… It was her birthday today!
Everyone was acting so strange today. Had they been preparing for her birthday?
Lin Momo’s tears burst out.
“Waaaah…
“Everyone…”
Lin Momo covered her mouth, not knowing what to say.
The fireworks on the sea continued to bloom, and Lin Momo was so touched that she couldn’t help but shudder.
“Hurry up and blow out the candles and make a wish to eat cake!
“This cake is special!” Zhou Meng said, as she held up the small cupcake.
“Ah? Cake?
“I can’t eat cake…”
Lin Momo was stunned. ‘Zhou Meng, are you stupid? We’re all zombies. Don’t you know this?’
“Ah, blow out the candles first. I’ll explain to you later!”
Zhou Meng urged her.
Lin Momo nodded and wiped away the tears on her face. She made a wish with her hands clenched and blew out the candle.
“Alright, alright, it’s time for cake!”
Zhou Meng and the other girls cheered.
Lin Momo suspiciously picked up the cake and smelled it.
“Ah, it actually smells good!”
Lin Momo took a small bite, and her whole body shuddered!
