Chapter 336 Eating in the Cafeteria (1/2)

Lu Hongbing thought of the otherworldly people who had appeared some time ago, and he quickly accepted the information brought by Ye Ling.

I was still shocked.

Ye Ling told him that Ye Jingyan was still alive and that he would be allowed to come out and meet him once he woke up.

With a serious expression, she said to Lu Hongbing in a deep voice, "Uncle, let's talk about the apocalypse."

Lu Hongbing nodded: "That's exactly what I was thinking."

The private conversation lasted all night, until the deputy general knocked on the door to remind them that it was six o'clock in the morning and time for breakfast, at which point they ended their conversation.

Although they had been talking all night, they showed no signs of fatigue.

Lu Hongbing stood up and said with a smile, "Come on, follow me to the cafeteria."

Ye Ling had never seen what leaders of this rank ate for breakfast before, so she took Hong Yun and headed towards the cafeteria.

As they stepped out of the room, the deputy general smiled and said to them, "Xiao Yin and Comrade Xiao Zhu are still in the R&D department; they stayed there all night."

You wouldn't believe it, but when Academician Wang asked Comrade Xiao Yin a few tricky questions, Xiao Yin not only answered them but also asked Academician Wang three questions in return. And just like that, they hit it off immediately.

They got more and more excited as they talked, and finally Academician Wang asked me if I needed anyone. He wanted Xiaoyin, saying that Xiaoyin should be his student.

Lu Hongbing smiled upon hearing this and asked, "What did Xiao Yin say?"

The deputy general said with a smile, "When Academician Wang asked him if he would like to be his student, he hesitated and said he would think about it."

Lu Hongbing patted him on the shoulder: "Tell Academician Wang to let Xiao Yin continue to talk to him and visit more places. In a couple of days, he will decide what he wants to do."

He looked at Ye Ling: "Lingling, what do you think?"

Ye Ling: "I respect him."

Lu Hongbing nodded: "That's enough."

They quickly arrived at the inner canteen. Ye Ling had already checked it with her divine sense beforehand, so she remained calm.

To be honest, this cafeteria was not quite what she had imagined.

She assumed that even if the cafeteria wasn't glittering, it would be quite luxurious, given that it used to frequently host international guests.

But in reality, it's pretty much like a hotel cafeteria.

Ye Ling and Hong Yun took the plates handed to them by the staff and followed behind Lu Hongbing.

Lu Hongbing said, "Food is scarce. Although it's still a buffet, there aren't many choices, but we're full."

He picked up a roasted potato, then some cabbage, and continued walking.

Ye Ling whispered to Hong Yun, "Choose what you like to eat, take as much as you can eat, and don't waste any."

Hongyun pointed at the potato: "What's this? Is it tasty?"

"You'll know once you try a potato."

Hongyun nodded, picked up a piece and put it on the plate, then asked the tomato, "What is this? It's red."

"The tomatoes are sour and delicious."

Hearing her say it was delicious, he decided to try it. This was the world she had lived in; if she said the food here was delicious, it must be really good.

So he picked up a few more pieces.

Lu Hongbing stood in front waiting for them and explained to Ye Ling, "Tomatoes are a rare vegetable now. Although a lot have been grown in underground greenhouses, they are consumed quickly and can only be eaten once a week. You are lucky to have caught them."

Ye Ling asked softly, "Uncle, how's the yield? Are the seeds still from before the apocalypse?"

Lu Hongbing shook his head: "The seeds have also mutated. The tomatoes you see now are cut into small pieces, but the whole tomatoes are twice the size of the tomatoes before, and the taste is not as good as before."
