Chapter 574: Neighbors
Bai Xiao had organized the kitchen neatly. Everything was sorted and placed in its category, and the fridge was packed full. It seemed they could cook for themselves tonight, no need to visit the cafeteria.
She still hadn’t quite adapted to the local flavors here, except for the rice noodles, which were indeed delicious. The other dishes were somewhat different from her dietary habits.
Especially since these past few days Bai Xiao had been feeling a bit inflamed and wanted to drink some homemade millet porridge! Especially with a layer of rice oil on top, mixed with some pickled vegetables her sister had brought, tossed with sesame oil—that was truly a delightful taste.
Saliva almost dripping, she decided to act immediately, already having washed the pot to start cooking the millet. It needed to simmer slowly on a low heat to bring out the best flavor and texture.
Just as she wiped her hands and came out of the kitchen, she saw someone at the door striking up a conversation.
"You are the new leader An, right? I’m your neighbor, living just across from you. My man is Hu Biao—do you remember Hu Biao? He was with you in that ambush, Hu Biao."
As Bai Xiao walked out, she of course remembered Hu Biao, who was also one of the heroes in this achievement, probably promoted this time for his distinguished services.
It really was a coincidence.
