Rebirth of a Portable Space: Transforming My Hometown

Chapter 281 Can it cure gene collapse?!

The woman licked her lips with a lingering look of satisfaction, trying to savor the remaining fragrance.

Mu Sen felt extremely sorry for his wife, who had suffered so much because of him.

"Besides those two strawberries, I also bought potatoes, sweet potatoes, and cabbage. Wait a moment, I'll cook them for you."

After saying that, Mu Sen went to the kitchen.

In reality, even ordinary fruits and vegetables are hard to find in this world, let alone those that are cooked into food.

Therefore, most families don't have kitchens. Musen and his wife are both warriors, and quite capable in combat.

Before the woman's genes failed, their family wasn't particularly wealthy, but they could still afford to eat a simple meal they cooked themselves every now and then.

Furthermore, both Mu Sen and the woman love to eat; otherwise, they wouldn't have spent some points on the black market to buy ingredients from Xie Yiren and the others.

When they got married, they specifically asked the renovation company to keep the kitchen so that they would have a place to cook this meal today.

The woman looked expectantly at her husband as he entered the kitchen. She wondered if it was just her imagination, but she felt less unwell after eating the two strawberries.

Perhaps happiness had lessened her pain, the woman said with a self-deprecating smile.

Everyone wants to live, but repeated hopes and disappointments have led her to give up long ago on obtaining the instrument to stabilize gene collapse.

She just wanted to live each day as it came with her husband, but he refused to give up, firmly believing he could get his hands on the device to cure gene collapse.

It's good to have hope.

Having long suffered from genetic breakdown, she is a powerful mental genetic warrior.

Her mental strength, which once gave her keen perception on the battlefield, now torments her.

She could clearly feel every cell in her body, every inch of her skin, collapsing every second.

Now, as she ate the strawberry, she felt a strange sense of relief in her gradually collapsing genes, making her wonder if it was just an illusion, a fleeting glimmer of hope.

Musen quickly cooked the potatoes, sweet potatoes, and cabbage he had bought.

In this world where ingredients are scarce, their cooking methods are not as sophisticated as those of the Great Xia Dynasty.

Musen made three dishes: cabbage and potato balls, steamed sweet potato, and boiled cabbage.

Even though this meal was extremely simple in the eyes of the Xia people, Mu Sen and the woman ate with great satisfaction.

At the same time, the woman also felt a distinct sensation! It wasn't her imagination! Her genes, which had been causing her breakdown, stopped collapsing after coming into contact with these foods.

Unable to hold back any longer, her tears streamed down her face.

"Mei...Meilin, what's wrong? Are you feeling unwell?"

Seeing his wife crying, Mu Sen panicked and didn't know what to do. He feared nothing but his wife crying, which broke his heart.

Meilin shook her head

"No, I'm crying because I'm happy, I'm just happy. I don't feel uncomfortable anywhere, honey~"

I feel like I can stay with you for a very, very long time. I ate the food you brought, and my genes that were about to collapse were finally stopped!

After saying that, Wanlin smiled happily at Musen.

Upon hearing his wife's words, Mu Sen could no longer remain seated. He rushed to Mei Lin's side, stammering as if afraid he had misheard, and said...

"Honey, are you serious?! You're not just trying to comfort me, are you?! It really feels like our genes aren't collapsing anymore?!"

"Yes! It's true. You know I wouldn't joke about this."

Meilin gently patted her husband's head and said softly.

Musen was so happy he was almost at a loss for words, pacing back and forth in his small bedroom.

He was muttering to himself.

"I...I'll go buy some more of those ingredients now. Ugh! Why didn't I buy more? I...I'll just put on some clothes and go, just some clothes."

He said, his hands trembling as he went to find his clothes, and then he said to Meilin...

"Honey, I'm full. You finish what's left, and I'll go buy some more. I'll make sure you eat well and stay healthy."

"Pfft~" Meilin rarely saw Musen so out of control, and she felt both amused and saddened. She stopped Musen's behavior.

"Honey, no rush. It's getting late, almost 8 pm. Even if no one knows these ingredients have these effects, just by looking at them and smelling them, you know they won't lack customers."

Going there now would be a wasted trip; go buy it tomorrow.

"I know, I know, but I feel like I'm not at peace unless I do something."

Musen stopped his aimless wandering, like a headless fly.

At the same time, both of her eyes were red, and she looked like she was about to cry.

Meilin seemed to be affected by Musen's inner emotions; her eyes also reddened, and she placed her hands on Musen's hands.

"Honey, there's hope! Everything will be alright. Then we'll fight the Zerg together on the battlefield again!"

Musen seemed unsatisfied with Meilin simply putting her hands together; he hugged her tightly and buried his head in her shoulder.

A strong nasal tone

"Hmm~ Everything will be alright, but I don't want to kill any more Zerg. Just the two of us, healthy and living a simple, peaceful life."

"Have another baby, and I'll support you both."

"Good~"

"Honey, I'm going to go there early tomorrow to wait around; they should still be selling vegetables then, right?"

Musen said with a hint of uncertainty.

"Will do"

Meilin said softly

"If they only sell for one day, then that's my fate."

"No way! They definitely haven't sold any by tomorrow. Even if they haven't, I'll search the entire base to find them and beg them to sell me their vegetables!"

Although Musen still buried his head on Meilin's shoulder, his words were incredibly firm, expressing his determination.

No one knows how tightly a drowning person will cling to a piece of driftwood when they find it!

While Musen and his wife were dreaming about the future, in another large villa...

"Second brother, how is it?!"

Caslant stared nervously at Anil with his large eyes, awaiting his response.

"Hmm... I didn't feel any energy absorption, but this food is definitely much tastier than what we get on our army farm."

Anil savored the delicious flavor with a look of pure enjoyment.

After hearing Anil's answer, Caslant also tried it himself.

Mmm~~~ So delicious! Even if this food doesn't have any special effects, it won't stop it from becoming her favorite.

only!!!

"Second brother! I bought this! How can you eat so much?"

That wretched second brother! While she was enjoying her food, he ate most of it, forcing her to eat faster so she couldn't savor the aroma of the food properly!

No, I must protect the rest of the food! I can't let my second brother have even a single bite.

After finishing his meal, Caslant cautiously clutched the remaining box of strawberries, along with a few potatoes and sweet potatoes, tightly to his chest.

retreating into her bedroom

"No!" At this moment, Anil's handsome, sword-like eyebrows furrowed, as if he had encountered some difficult problem.

"There's something wrong with this food!"
