Book 2: Epilogue
A week had already passed by the time Ye Xiao awoke. He was shocked to discover that he was actually not dead, but rather safely lying in a hospital bed. His shoulder was bandaged, and an IV drip was connected to his arm.
He turned his gaze around to see white filling his vision: white curtains and white bedsheets. The room smelled strongly of antiseptic. The most inconceivable part was that placed on the nightstand next to the head of the bed was a…a fragrant hamburger?
He blinked hard. It really was not just him hallucinating; there actually was a hamburger there. Moreover, it was the double steak & cheese hamburger that he loved the most!
So weird…do hamburgers really just drop from the sky for no reason?
He immediately turned over and sat up. Swallowing his drool, he stared in astonishment at the suspicious hamburger. But the more he looked at it, the more his starving stomach failed his expectations by letting out a series of growls.
Eh, forget about who the hamburger belongs to. I’ll just eat it first.
Ultimately, he could not help but reach out to grab the warm hamburger, ripping apart the paper to wolf it down.
Halfway through, he suddenly heard a scoff next to his ear.
“Heh, anyone that saw your gluttony would think you were a locust in your past life.”
