“Hmm… let’s eat some roast chicken.” Mu Yan responded.
“All right, you take a break here first, and I’ll be right back.” Mu Chen drew Mu Yan to a rest near the small river before running into the forest for a quick hunt.
When Mu Yan opened the system panel, the upgrading task’s progress bar was not halfway complete, but the appraisal skill’s progress bar was more than half complete. He may reach Level 3 if he utilized it more frequently. More food ingredients would have been identified by then.
“Yanyan.” 005’s irritated voice came from above at this point.
Mu Yan looked up and saw 005 floating through the sky, and he shouted cheerfully, “005, you’re awake.”
The heartbroken 005: …
005 looked at Mu Yan with complicated eyes. The reason it went dormant was to not disturb the love between the host and the host’s partner. Although it wanted to stop it, Yanyan was obviously very happy, and it had no qualifications to stop it.
Out of sight and out of mind, better be sleeping than suffering.
005, on the other hand, did not expect that this hibernation would last more than a week. It was waiting for the host to wake it awake, but Yanyan had forgotten.
Finally, 005 awoke from its slumber to see the small host and that man kissing softly. Yanyan had already forgotten about 005, and 005 had abruptly become like an abandoned widow.
“Yanyan, you don’t even seem to miss me.” 005 lamented.
“I’m missing you.” Mu Yan stated it truthfully, but with a little bit of caution in his tone.
In fact, in the first few days before 005 went dormant, Mu Yan was still not used to the lack of a chatterbox by his side. But as his focus shifted to Mu Chen, and Mu Chen began to consider ways to make Mu Yan happy, he unintentionally forgot about 005.
“Then why didn’t you wake me up?” 005 continued to complain.
Mu Yan wanted to say something, but he didn’t know what to say. After all, he had always been a good boy and would not lie.
Seeing this, 005 felt its heart shatter into pieces.
005 originally wanted the little host to comfort it, but it didn’t expect the little host to be so ‘upright’, and in the end, it was itself that felt stuck.
005 decided to stop this topic, otherwise, it must have been the one who got hurt in the end.

“Yanyan, what shall we eat later?” 005 abruptly shifted the topic. If it was facing someone else, it would definitely be noticed, but if it was facing Mu Yan, there would be no problem at all.

Mu Chen had a strong understanding of these foods because he had spent so much time watching Mu Yan cook. Mu Chen was effectively the cook at home these days, while Mu Yan only needed to open his mouth to eat.
Not long after, the skin of the chicken was roasted and browned, and the fragrance gradually came out. 005, who hadn’t eaten the food made by Mu Yan for several days, almost drooled.
“It smells so good, Ah Chen, you are a good cook.” Sitting at the side, Mu Yan couldn’t help but compliment Mu Chen’s cooking skills.
“No, Mumu is still the best. Mumu’s roasted chicken has a more aromatic flavor.” Mu Chen also praised Mu Yan without hesitation.
“Tsk tsk…you two are really enough. I am still here. If you’re going to praise each other like this, do it while you’re alone.” 005 rubbed its round body, which had no goosebumps at all, feeling disgusted.
Mu Yan quickly bowed his head to hide his flushed cheeks.
How could he have forgotten about 005? It was extremely embarrassing.
Mu Chen cast a brief glance at 005, then continued to flip the roast chicken in his palm.
005 was plainly aware of the other party’s gaze. Although it was only for a brief moment, the familiar sensation brought back memories.
005 couldn’t mislead itself into thinking Mu Chen had merely occurred to look in its direction by chance, because it wasn’t the first time this had happened.
005 stared in fear at Mu Chen, and was convinced that it was invisible to everyone but the small host. No one else was able to see 005.
This man’s sensitivity could only be described as excessive. Even if he couldn’t see 005, he could easily figure out where it was.
How potent should this level of sensitivity be? 005 had only seen a person with this type of perception once before, in a more advanced civilization than this universe, and the inhabitants there were also considerably stronger than here. 005 had not anticipated meeting another person in this universe.
005 wasn’t sure whether this was a good thing, but it shouldn’t be too bad for the time being; after all, Mu Chen was the man of its small host.
005 did not dare to be too active, though, for fear of being gazed at again by Mu Chen. In 005’s opinion, everyone else was the same throughout this period of time, except for its small host, who could get all the affection and care from this man.
005’s anxiety did not appear just because its little host was by its side. This man might become a frightening existence once the little host was gone or something happened to him.
“Is it cooked? It smells more fragrant now.” Mu Yan looked at the roast chicken on the wooden stick anxiously.
He had been eating very light food every day these days, and now when he saw the roasted chicken, he couldn’t wait to eat the whole thing.
Mu Chen naturally also saw the eager gaze of his beloved, and his mood immediately improved. Being able to feed his beloved was a very happy and fulfilling thing, and when he saw his beloved eating happily, he was even happier than he was eating it himself.
Food, a very magical thing.
What Mu Chen didn’t realize was that delicious food was magical since it not only helped humans feel full and better after eating, but it also attracted animals.
A pair of green eyes peered at the roast chicken on the wooden stick in a bush not far from the two people and a system. It was evident from the first whiff of the roast chicken.
It became even more ready to move after seeing Mu Yan eat grilled chicken with a satisfied expression.
Mu Chen cast an absent-minded glance at the bushes before returning his attention to his lover.
“Hiss, hiss…” A soft hissing voice came from the grass. Mu Yan and 005, who were enjoying the delicious roast chicken, didn’t notice it, but Mu Chen paused for a moment.
“How fragrant, Ah Chen, you should eat more.” said Mu Yan, tearing off a big drumstick from the roasted chicken and holding it up to feed it to Mu Chen’s mouth.
Mu Chen smiled and took a bite from Mu Yan’s hand, before carefully tearing out the tenderest piece of meat from the roasted chicken and feeding it into Mu Yan’s mouth.
The hissing became louder, as though tinged with impatience, especially as the roasted chicken became less and less visible, and even the surrounding grass stirred weakly.
In the end, the creature that had been hiding seemed to have made up its mind and quickly emerged from the grass, heading straight for the remaining roasted chicken.
If there were only Mu Yan and 005 at the moment, perhaps this ‘thief’ could have succeeded in stealing food. However, with Mu Chen in, let alone one, even if ten came, don’t even try to snatch even a piece of chicken belonging to Mu Yan from his hands.
“Hiss, hiss…” The little thing was caught by Mu Chen, and it screamed more eagerly, with a hint of immaturity in its voice, obviously it was still a cub. This time, even Mu Yan and 005 were alarmed.
“Ahh, it’s a snake! Ah Chen, let it go quickly, it will bite you.” After Mu Yan saw clearly what Mu Chen was holding, he instinctively took a few steps back in fright, his little face turned pale, and he hurriedly said that to Mu Chen.
In the previous world, someone in their village was bitten by a snake on the mountain, and then died soon after. There was no way to save him. So Mu Yan was very afraid of snakes.
Now, seeing that Mu Chen was still holding on to the snake, he became even more frightened. He hastily picked up the stick used to roast chicken, suppressed the fear in his heart, and blocked Mu Chen behind him, trying to use the stick to beat the snake.
Mu Chen’s gaze towards Mu Yan became softer, and no one could tell from the usual cold expression.
This person was obviously very scared, but he bravely stood in front of him, using his thin body to help him block the danger ahead. How could he remain unmoved, even in a cold heart, should he melt.
At the beginning, he was seriously injured and fell in the forest. In fact, when Mu Yan approached, he was still conscious, but because of the severe injury, he couldn’t open his eyes or speak at all.
Then, in the darkness, he listened to the young man in front of him whisper softly, and helped him scrub his wounds. Although he was afraid, he still didn’t throw himself away. Although he was so thin and unable to carry himself, he still made tools and dragged him forward, step by step, with difficulty.
Even in times of difficulty, he never thought of leaving him. This was his little lover, how could he not be moved? How could he not love his little love?
“Don’t worry, it won’t hurt me.”
[Ding, jade snake, non-poisonous, good at finding ingredients, edible.]
Mu Chen’s voice and the system’s sound at the same time. Mu Yan was stunned for a moment, and then he saw Mu Chen clenching his fingers. The little green snake struggled more violently, and its voice became more shrill.
“Yanyan, let Mu Chen let go of the little snake quickly. Don’t kill the little snake.” 005 said hastily.
“Ah Chen, don’t kill it, it’s not poisonous.” Mu Yan quickly stopped him.
The appraisal skill of the system detected it just now. When it was identified as non-toxic, Mu Yan breathed a sigh of relief, as long as it was not poisonous, it would not be a danger to Mu Chen.
“Yanyan, this is a treasure snake.” 005 looked at the little emerald green snake and said with glowing eyes.
“Jade snake is good at finding ingredients, it’s a very good *beep beep beep beep* to eat. As long as it is there, we can easily find more ingredients in the future. I never expected that there would be jade snakes in this world. We are really lucky.” 005 said excitedly.
Had it not been for the appraisal skill, no one would realize that the snake Mu Chen almost killed was a rare ‘expert in finding ingredients.’
Frozenmirage: Wow wow, what is that beep beep sounds!?
