The Introvert is Becoming the Police Station's Beloved!

Chapter 385: Chapter 385: Han Le

Lin Xiaoyan shook her head, "It’s not discomfort, it’s a matter of eating habits."

"At home, whenever I wanted to eat something, I cooked it myself.

Since going out, I’ve been eating food from outside all the time, and I feel like throwing up."

Others nodded too, "Indeed, although the restaurants we found taste good, eating it for a long time does make one feel uncomfortable."

Not to mention Lin Xiaoyan, they also felt their stomachs were uncomfortable.

Cooking by oneself was also a bit unrealistic.

Mainly because they’re staying in hotels, and cooking is not allowed in hotels.

Nan Xi thought for a moment, "How about we don’t stay in hotels anymore? Stay in homestays instead? That way we can borrow a kitchen and cook ourselves."

This suggestion was agreed upon by everyone.

No sooner said than done, Nan Xi immediately searched for nearby homestays.

Once found, they immediately grabbed their luggage and checked out to go to the homestay.

When they arrived at the homestay, they looked at the environment; it was quite nice, clean, and tidy.

Nan Xi specifically sought out the owner and inquired if they could use the kitchen to cook their own meals.

The owner said yes, no problem.

Upon hearing the owner’s agreement, Lin Xiaoyan and the others were immediately enthused, and drove to the nearby supermarket to buy groceries.

"Tonight, I must have corn grits!!"

Lin Xiaoyan exclaimed loudly.

Nan Xi heard Lin Xiaoyan’s words and smiled. She knew very well Lin Xiaoyan’s deep love for "corn grits."

Ever since they went out, every night before sleep, Lin Xiaoyan would say how nice it would be to have a bowl of corn grits, which would surely make the stomach feel comfortable.

However, it was rare to come across places brewing corn grits after they went out, and even if there was, the taste was different.

This was probably Lin Xiaoyan’s dietary habit as someone from Yu Province.

Got to have some porridge morning and night.

Tonight, Lin Xiaoyan finally had the long-craved corn grits and ate stir-fried vegetables.

Lin Feng and the others also ate with relish.

Lin Feng exclaimed, "Xiao Yan, your cooking is really delicious!"

Xiao Bo said, "Honestly, it’s tastier than some restaurant food we’ve had!"

Nan Xi nodded her head, just focused on eating.

Lin Xiaoyan took a sip of corn grits, exhaled comfortably, "It’s not that I cook well, it’s just that you guys haven’t had ordinary home-cooked food for a long time.

Restaurant food is usually heavily seasoned, and many dishes are pre-made, losing the food’s inherent taste.

So once you suddenly eat home-cooked meals, you find them delicious."

Everyone nodded emphatically, yes, although the food outside is delicious, eating too much truly makes one feel sick.

After Lin Xiaoyan and the others finished a delightful meal, they decisively decided to stay in places where they could cook for themselves in the future.

At night, everyone felt somewhat stuffed and went out for a walk together.

Four of them chatted as they walked alongside the road.

They were in a small county, now it was past seven in the evening, and there were already few people on the road.

Many stores on the roadside were already closed.

The chilly road felt empty.

This was the difference between a small county and a big city.

In a big city, this hour would probably be the starting point of nightlife.

Moreover, the roads would definitely be crowded and lively.

Life in a small city is stress-free and slow-paced.

Lin Feng looked at the deserted road and said, "Since I came down the mountain, I’ve been in this kind of place."

Xiao Bo looked at him, "Don’t you frequently accept tasks?"

Lin Feng: "I do, but the tasks I accept are in urban areas. My senior brother is afraid that once I leave, I’ll be unreachable..."

Xiao Bo thought about Lin Feng’s bad luck with money, and indeed, that might be the case.

Later, Nan Xi and Lin Xiaoyan walked arm in arm along the road.

Once their stomachs felt less full, they decided to head back.

"There’s a bakery, let’s check it out?"

"Sure, tomorrow morning we’ll have bread, drink some milk, and then set off on the road."

"Sounds good."

Tomorrow, they would head to the next destination.

"Continue heading north?"

"Sure!"

The four of them entered the bakery and began picking the bread they wanted to eat.

Except for Lin Xiaoyan, the other three didn’t have much to pick, each randomly grabbed two or three loaves, and that was it.

Lin Xiaoyan, on the other hand, looked here and there, selecting the bread she wanted to eat.

It was clear that the bread in this bakery was made by the owner.

It was already late, and there wasn’t much left.

Lin Xiaoyan quickly selected some, then grabbed some milk and yogurt.

"How much?"

"Altogether..."

"Boss, not closed yet, luckily I made it, I thought you were already closed..."

At this moment, a woman entered from outside, smiling and greeting the owner.

The owner looked up at the woman and said with a smile, "Working late tonight?"

Han Le quickly grabbed two loaves of bread, "Yeah, worked a bit late."

Lin Xiaoyan had finished paying and turned to leave.

"Hey, grab two bags of milk as well for tomorrow morning!"

Han Le reached out for milk on the shelf, and as she backed up, accidentally stepped on Lin Xiaoyan’s foot.

"Sorry."

Han Le quickly turned her head to apologize, "Sorry, I didn’t see, are you okay?"

Lin Xiaoyan looked up at Han Le, who was about her age, and smiled slightly, shaking her head, "It’s okay."

Han Le looked at Lin Xiaoyan apologetically, nodded slightly, and then went to pay.

Lin Xiaoyan’s gaze stayed on the girl, she tugged Nan Xi’s hand.

Nan Xi looked up at the girl checking out.

Then she looked back at Lin Xiaoyan.

Lin Xiaoyan nodded slightly, quickly pulling Nan Xi out of the bakery.

Xiao Bo and Lin Feng were already out, they saw the two, took the items, and prepared to return to the homestay.

"That girl just now..."

Lin Xiaoyan didn’t expect that coming out to buy bread at night would lead to this.

Recently, they hadn’t "seen" anything for quite a while.

Nan Xi and Xiao Bo listened, their expressions turning serious.

Lin Feng then looked at the girl who came out of the bakery.

But the girl wore a mask, making her face unclear.

He had to withdraw his gaze.

"What do we do now?"

Lin Feng asked quietly.

Lin Xiaoyan looked at Nan Xi, who was on the phone, "Leave it to them."

After Nan Xi finished her call, she quickly said a few words to Xiao Bo. Xiao Bo nodded and quickly ran back to the homestay to start the car.

Nan Xi then watched the direction in which the girl was leaving. After saying something to Lin Xiaoyan, she chased after her.

Lin Feng watched as the two disappeared quickly, turning to Lin Xiaoyan, "What about us?"

Lin Xiaoyan watched the direction in which the girl disappeared on her electric scooter, smiling faintly, "Let’s go, we’ll catch up too!"

Lin Feng: Huh?

And so, Han Le rode her electric scooter towards home.

Nan Xi closely followed, chasing in the direction of the girl.

Lin Xiaoyan and Lin Feng also followed close behind.
