Beef dishes such as spicy beef, marinated beef, curry beef, braised beef in yellow sauce... and of course, steak, filled the table.
If the yellow cattle were here, it would definitely flip the table!
This was a blatant provocation. Not a single dish on the table was repeated, and the highlight was that all dishes used beef as the main ingredient, prepared in various ways.
Even the soup was West Lake beef soup. Furthermore, twenty skewers of Xinjiang-style beef kebabs were finally served to Chu Feng.
Seeing this table full of food, Chu Feng couldn't help but feel a bit guilty. If he ate everything, would the yellow cattle be able to smell it when he got home?
If it found out, it would surely fight him to the death.
However, once he started eating, he stopped caring about that and kept praising the head chef for his efforts, marveling at how many different dishes could be made from beef.
As they ate, they conversed softly.
When talking about past events, such as classmates and alumni, they had much to say. However, when it came to their shared past, they only touched lightly on it.
Chu Feng felt that Lin Nuoyi indeed intentionally distanced herself; their conversations were quite bland.
He was cheerful and optimistic but didn't mean to be clingy and didn't try anything. He spoke with her calmly, and both managed to avoid any potential awkwardness.
They talked for a long time, from university days to the present and the recent dramatic changes in the world.
Chu Feng felt quite moved. Strange phenomena appeared everywhere, changing daily. This relatively short period had overturned many years of his previous life.
Lin Nuoyi listened with some regret, admitting she had anticipated that the world would change but hadn't expected it to be so intense.
Because in this post-civilization era, several mysterious changes had occurred over a longer period, greatly impacting people's lives, which remained unsolved for ordinary folks.
But Sky God Biotech knew the truth, having encountered it before.
However, this seemed to involve some taboos, and Lin Nuoyi was cautious. She hinted at some things to Chu Feng but couldn't reveal everything.
While listening to her talk about old matters, Chu Feng paid close attention and pondered deeply.
Finally, Lin Nuoyi asked Chu Feng if he wanted to leave, go somewhere else, like the giant city to the north. Because Mount Taihang was about to become unsettled, with many extraordinary beings arriving.
"Maybe, I might leave after a while," Chu Feng said, admitting he had already seen those overwhelming messages online.
He earnestly reminded Lin Nuoyi to be careful and protect herself, given the large number of extraordinary beings coming to Mount Taihang, even Diamond had personally come, ensuring there would be fierce battles.
Lin Nuoyi nodded, acknowledging she would pay attention to her safety. At the same time, she tactfully mentioned that she originally intended to send Chu Feng away immediately.
The reason for meeting today was precisely to send him off.
Now knowing a powerful figure was behind Chu Feng and would likely take him away, she no longer insisted.
"I know Mount Taihang is dangerous, I just won't provoke those extraordinary beings," Chu Feng smiled.
"It's not just that." Lin Nuoyi shook her head, thinking of something, cautiously choosing her words, telling Chu Feng some truths.
"We've noticed some unusual situations." What Lin Nuoyi said next shocked Chu Feng.
"Many wild animals and birds of prey are evolving, becoming smarter, as if unlocking shackles within their bodies, their intelligence approaching humans."
Lin Nuoyi actually said such things!
Chu Feng believed what she said, given Sky God Biotech was a massive entity, possessing numerous resources and knowledge inaccessible to ordinary people.
"Lately, extraordinary beings have emerged, and everyone talks about them, but how many people notice the mutated animals? They're very quiet, most are dormant, silent."
Hearing these words, Chu Feng was greatly shaken.
Using words like "quiet" and "silent" to describe those animals elevated them to a high level. Chu Feng wondered what a group of creatures approaching human intelligence might be contemplating.
"We caught a few, all extraordinary, extremely intelligent, not inferior to humans, even more capable, with strong learning and imitation abilities."
Lin Nuoyi mentioned this with a slightly serious expression.
"A big event will happen." Chu Feng pushed aside his utensils, feeling uneasy, thinking a lot, tapping the table lightly, pondering.
"I'm sure that mutated beasts and birds of prey must outnumber extraordinary beings!" Lin Nuoyi said.
Such words further struck Chu Feng's heart; it should be true. After all, most beasts and birds of prey lived in the wild, closer to nature.
After the appearance of mysterious fruits, they were easier to obtain than humans!
"How do I feel the future seems somewhat terrifying?" Chu Feng said.
"That's why we need to choose to enter giant cities," Lin Nuoyi replied.
Chu Feng always had a question: besides calming the public recently, the country seemed rather silent, perhaps worrying about something?
Lin Nuoyi frankly stated that since the post-civilization era, during this period, the country knew the inside story of several mysterious major incidents but couldn't disclose them.
"The country has always protected its citizens, maybe they're about to act, and I think the impact will be significant!" Lin Nuoyi concluded.
They talked a lot, and the lunch lasted a long time.
"By the way, if you find it hard to explain to your uncle, and someone recommends Xu Wanqing to you, you can directly hand her over," Chu Feng suddenly brought up this topic.
Lin Nuoyi didn't speak, just looked at him.
"Don't look at me, because I understand the extraordinary being who helped me, he has a bad temper. I worry he might seek revenge for me now, and if something happens to that woman under your care, wouldn't that put you in an awkward position?" Chu Feng added, "Is she your friend?"
"She claims to be my best friend," Lin Nuoyi responded, admitting Xu Wanqing had a close relationship with someone named Mu.
"I see!"
Finally, when saying goodbye, Lin Nuoyi calmly approached him, unexpectedly giving him a slight hug. This was the closest interaction between them since they met.
"You owe me a hug, today, you really compensated me?" Chu Feng sighed gently, understanding what it meant.
"Being with you makes me feel relaxed. But although we spent some time together, I truly don't have those feelings for you," Lin Nuoyi calmly said.
She was tall, with smooth and silky hair, fair cheeks, beautiful eyes shining with light. Despite her cold demeanor, her red lips, delicate waist, and snow-white long legs added a touch of seductiveness, making her appear both cold and charming.
"Compensating me then bringing up old matters, you're really... afraid I'd think too much?" Chu Feng shook his head, slightly dissatisfied.
Because those words Lin Nuoyi had told him before.
Lin Nuoyi smoothed her hair, walking alongside him out of the restaurant, "I'll drive you back."
"No need, I know you're busy. With important events happening in Mount Taihang, handle them. Just find me a car," Chu Feng said.
"Alright." Lin Nuoyi nodded, clearly showing she had many tasks ahead, possibly preparing for a battle with Bodhi Genomics.
A silver-gray car drove up, two extraordinary beings personally escorting Chu Feng back.
Arriving at his doorstep, Chu Feng got out, waved to them in thanks, and watched the car speed away.
"Do I smell like beef?" He sniffed himself, unable to detect anything, but still somewhat worried.
"Deal with important matters first." He didn't enter the yard, heading straight into the mountains, taking out a large-caliber firearm along the way.
Recently, facing attacks with firearms twice, he seized many weapons.
That afternoon, Chu Feng practiced shooting in the deep mountains, continuously firing bullets, improving his accuracy.
Since practicing special breathing techniques, his physical capabilities improved significantly, combined with practicing the Great Strength Bull Demon Fist, his physique became incredibly formidable.
After continuous testing, relying on sharp vision and exceptional perception, he almost became an outstanding marksman.
Chu Feng set off, returning to the county town again as darkness fell.
Standing far away, he quietly observed the location of Sky God Biotech personnel. They were scattered, seemingly fearing attacks with heavy firearms.
However, this was merely out of caution. It was unlikely that Bodhi Genomics would dare use heavy firearms in densely populated areas of the county town.
During the day, Sky God Biotech clashed violently with Bodhi Genomics two or three times, and tonight wouldn't be peaceful either.
Deep into the night, the forces of the two giants clashed again.
ChuFeng quietly watched until the most chaotic moment, stealthily moving closer but still keeping a safe distance due to his exceptionally sharp vision, now several times better than others.
After discussing with Lin Nuoyi, he learned a lot, even seeing Xu Wanqing's photo. After searching and observing for a long time, he finally spotted Xu Wanqing, indeed released.
"Was she saved by Mu?"
Chu Feng watched from afar. That woman was an extraordinary being, not weak. At this moment, he was ruthless, pulling the trigger with a bang, a blood flower blooming far away with a terrified scream.
Without looking back, ChuFeng left quickly, disappearing amidst the chaos under the cover of night."
