Book 4: Chapter 20: Blue Poison’s Peculiar Taste

Bunch of fools! Look at how cute Blue Poison is. If this great me had lived in this world for a long time, I would have made a move already. No wonder you are all single.

As Chen Heng followed this train of thought, he remembered he did not have a girlfriend, either, and immediately felt depressed.

After that, Chen Heng recalled that most of the operators here were female. This Rhodes Island had plenty of supply and low demand. It should be easy for male operators to find a girlfriend. Now, he felt even more depressed.

“He Who Knows Fate, what’s wrong with you?” Blue Poison asked out of concern when she noticed Chen Heng’s low spirits.

“I was thinking, I’m already 18, and I don’t have a girlfriend yet. Am I a failure?”

“You know, you are only 18. There are many more years after 18. Why think so much about this now?”Updated from novelbIn.(c)om

“I’m not thinking about it anymore. Try the biscuits I just bought. I found them quite delicious last night. Unfortunately, I cannot make them myself. Otherwise, it would be nice to make a small cake.”

“He Who Knows Fate, you know how to bake? You can come to my room to bake. My room has equipment for making cakes.”

“Why doesn’t my room have that?”

“I bought them myself. Rhodes Island doesn’t provide cooking utensils for rooms. After all, most operators cannot cook.”

“I’m full now. It’s time to return to the dormitory. I can go to your room to make a cake. Do you have equipment for cooking in your room, for cooking regular meals?”

“I don’t have those. I bought baking equipment because I bake cakes, but I don’t know how to cook.”

“You don’t know how to cook?”

“I don’t.” Blue Poison shook her head.

“And I thought Blue Poison would make a good wife and mother.”

“You are overthinking. I am a merciless person in battle.”

“Well, showing mercy to the enemy in a battle is cruelty to yourself.”

“It’s great that you understand.”

“He Who Knows Fate, I finally found you. I’ve been searching for you, but you have been gorging yourself here? How hateful!” Just as Chen Heng and Blue Poison were about to leave, Exusiai’s voice came from the canteen’s entrance.

“Actually, I...”

...

“I was wondering what it was. It was this? Blue Poison, did you move to the fourth floor because of this?”

“I did. Aren’t you afraid?”

“Afraid? I fear nothing in this world.”

“You are truly a strange person.”

“Never mind, let’s not talk about this. Let’s go to your room and make a cake. This time, we should truly be friends, right?”

“Ah! Friends. That is truly extravagant.”

“Even if it is extravagant, don’t you have one now? Let’s go! Let’s go!”

Chen Heng wrapped his arm around Blue Poison’s shoulders and led her up the dormitory.

“Hey, He Who Knows Fate. Let go of me.”

“Why let go? This is how friends should walk.”

“Is...is that so?”

Of course it was not. Chen Heng just wanted to take advantage. However, Blue Poison did not have friends. How would she know? Since Chen Heng put it this way, she felt too embarrassed to refuse.

In Blue Poison’s room, Chen Heng and Blue Poison sat across from each other in the living room. They each had a small cake made by the other person in front of them. Chen Heng had suggested this, saying good friends should sample each other’s food. However, he now regretted it—deeply regretted it.

“Then He Who Knows Fate, let’s eat!” Blue Poison looked at the cake that Chen Heng called a German Black Forest cake, its appearance whetting her appetite. Although she did not know where Germany was, it did not matter, as the cake looked delicious.

“Uh...sure.” Although Chen Heng said that, he felt no appetite when he looked at Blue Poison’s cake.

He had watched Blue Poison bake; the process and baking time were all normal. However, the color was quite peculiar.

Who would dare to eat a cake that was completely blue with splashes of green?
