42: The whole neighborhood is drooling with envy.

"Let me first take a sip of freshly squeezed orange juice to rinse my mouth, and then I'll sample the second dish for everyone. This second dish is Spicy Chicken. Actually, I don't like it because it's too spicy, but it looks good. You don't mind if I try a bite, right?"

She picked up a large piece of chicken and put it in her mouth, speaking with an exaggerated tone, "Oh my, it's so fragrant! It's so spicy, fragrant and spicy—so satisfying!"

And this dish, what was it called? Oh, right, the female manager of the Yunboweis Grand Hotel said this dish is called Steamed Assorted Cured Meats. Oh dear, look at my memory, I can't even remember that.

But it doesn't matter. I see that none of you are reacting, so you probably don't like this one. Then let's move on to the next one, Flying Dragon Soup. I especially like this soup, so I won't share it with everyone.

“Hmm, it's incredibly delicious. I'll drink a bowl of soup now, okay? Everyone, don't be shy. If you like a dish, quickly pick it! I'll eat and listen at the same time."

She didn't care anymore and started eating, avoiding the rice and focusing entirely on the dishes. Every time she picked up food with her chopsticks, she showed it to the camera before eating it with immense enjoyment.

"That female manager, honestly! I told her to make the Spicy Chicken mildly spicy, but it's still so hot. Are the chili peppers at their Yunboweisda Hotel free or something? But, it's too delicious, what a thrill."

Everyone outside the courtyard gate staring at their phone screens was already crying from envy. They were separated from the delicious food by just one wall! "Ahhh! Spicy Chicken is my favorite! That's a famous dish from the five-star Yunboweis Grand Hotel! Ah, I want to eat it."

"The Lion's Head looks so delicious! Si Nan, you bastard, stop picking at it! Put down your chopsticks and let me have some."

"Wuwuwu, even a sip of soup would be great."

"Si Nan, throw everything you don't like outside the courtyard gate for me---"

Outside the gate, people were driven mad and cried from desire, a whole crowd breaking down in tears. Everyone was unwilling to give up and cursed Si Nan relentlessly.

Zhao Li looked at the table full of famous dishes and wished he could immediately smash open Si Nan's courtyard gate, take every dish, and go back to eat them slowly.

The Property Owner Group also went crazy. "This is too much! We have nothing to eat, yet she has so many delicious dishes! That's a huge table of famous dishes."

"How could she make so many famous dishes all at once? She definitely didn't make them herself."

"Are you blind? Didn't she just say that these were made by the top-ranked, five-star Yunboweis Master Chef in our City A?"

"Ahhh! I want to eat~"

"Si Nan, how about I trade you a new designer bag worth two hundred thousand for one dish? Just one."

"I'll trade you a famous watch worth three hundred thousand. Any dish will do."

"A diamond necklace, over a million yuan, and all I want is that Mapo Tofu you only took one bite of."

"Wuwuwu, Si Nan, please give me all your leftovers?"

"---"

The entire community was crying from envy.

However, Si Nan completely ignored them, closed the live stream with a "snap," and continued eating her meal. She was showing off, deliberately trying to infuriate these neighbors. After all, no matter how much she retreated, these people would never let her go, just like in her previous life.

So she stopped pretending and confronted them head-on, forcing them to watch her eat.

Among the onlookers, of course, was that illegitimate second-generation rich, Lü Tao. "This little girl hides things really well, but she will be mine soon."

After saying this, he picked up his phone and made a call, "Did you find the thing I asked you to look for?"

The other end replied, "Brother Tao, we found it. We were just about to call you."

Lü Tao was delighted. His eyes, like those of a poisonous snake, glanced at Si Nan in the live stream, and a sinister smile appeared on his lips. "Good. You're efficient. Drive it over after dark."

Meanwhile, Zhao Li looked at the table full of steaming delicacies, feeling disgruntled. Coincidentally, the long stainless steel ladder had already been brought over. He gritted his teeth in hatred:

"Quick, set it up! Climb over and open her courtyard gate! We'll immediately get to eat that table of delicacies and live in that sturdy, safe house! Hurry, hurry!"

"Brother Li, I'll do it! I'm a construction worker; I'm best at climbing high and low. I'll definitely open this steel gate for you." A young man in his early twenties walked out of the crowd and eagerly rushed up to Zhao Li, hoping to take the credit and get a bigger share later.

Zhao Li was clearly familiar with this person. "Good, you're the most suitable. Be quick about it. The others, help him hold the ladder. After he climbs onto the wall, pass the ladder to him."

"Yes, Brother Li." A dozen or so people rushed over instantly, enough to form a human ladder. Each one was eager to prove themselves, scrambling to hold the ladder.

Si Nan, who was eating, watched these people bring a long stainless steel ladder, preparing to climb over and open the gate. She unhurriedly put down her bowl and chopsticks, waiting calmly for the young man to climb the ladder. When the young man quickly reached the top of the ladder and was about to grab her wall to flip over, she directly pressed a button.

Suddenly, the stainless steel ladder was engulfed in electricity. The young man on the ladder let out a miserable shriek, his entire body convulsed as the current passed through him, and he dropped from the ladder with a "thud," completely charred black.

Before dying, he seemed to see Si Nan's mountains of food becoming his, more than he could ever finish---"Dead? What happened? Why is there electricity?" Before Zhao Li could react, all those holding the ladder screamed and fell to the ground one after another, convulsing until they died.

"Ah! Everyone quickly move away from the courtyard wall! The wall is electrified!" Finally, someone reacted and immediately ran far away.

But there were always slow reactors. Their hands instinctively pressed against the courtyard wall, and after a "sizzle, sizzle, sizzle," they followed the dozen or so others.

Zhao Li looked at the dozen charred corpses in front of him and retreated repeatedly in fear. He truly couldn't believe that a girl possessed such methods, capable of turning her house into an impenetrable fortress—it was terrifying.

No wonder she raised her hand without hesitation and killed Wang Meilan and the three people including Sixth Uncle. She not only possessed martial arts skills but also had the courage and intelligence that other girls never acquire in a lifetime.

A girl like this is perfectly capable of surviving alone in this chaotic world. He shouldn't have stepped forward. The nail that sticks out gets hammered. If he didn't stop now, he would be the next one to die.

So he pointed at the neighbors behind him who were still shocked, shouting, and cursing Si Nan, and said, "We are no match for her at all. Hurry up and leave."

He didn't care what the reaction of the people behind him was. He took off running. He didn't lose out in this farce; he managed to grab two bags of rice and a barrel of oil, enough to eat for a long time.

"But Brother Li, are we just giving up like this?"

"What if we don't give up? She just killed over a dozen of us in one go."

However, Zhao Li ignored him completely and walked toward his own building.

Si Nan watched the group leave, having no intention of chasing them. It was already the third day of the Apocalypse. How much longer could these people survive? She turned around and put the entire table of dishes back into her spatial storage, saving them for the next meal.

"Bibi, Sister? Sister Si Nan?"

"Hmm?" A faint call suddenly came from behind her. She looked over and saw a teenager leaning out of the third-floor window of the small villa next door, calling out to her through the glass.
