Apocalypse: Extreme Cold Descends, Goddess Offers Her Refuge

Snowflakes were falling heavily outside the window.

The fireplace inside the house was burning brightly.

[Master, you have received a new friend request]

The housekeeper then issued a reminder.

Luo Tian doesn't usually pay special attention to his phone, so the butler always notifies him of any new messages immediately.

"A new friend?"

Luo Tian raised an eyebrow, wondering who had the time to add him again.

Bai Ya consciously got up, took the phone, and opened the screen to show him the friend request interface.

"Who is it? I don't know them."

When Luo Tian saw that the person who added him was a girl with an anime avatar, he couldn't help but curl his lips.

Without saying a word, he refused outright.

"Hehe, I've lost count of how many friend requests I've received~"

Bai Ya covered her mouth and chuckled softly.

"boring."

Luo Tian yawned and waved his hand, signaling Bai Ya to toss her phone aside.

After he revealed his family's financial situation in the group chat a while ago, he got so many friend requests. Not only married women and unmarried girls, but there were even men pretending to be women begging for food!!

Therefore, he now chooses to ignore these homeowners who request to be his friend.

"However... this friend-adding feature gave me an idea."

Luo Tian seemed to be deep in thought.

"If only I knew Yan Shu's reputation. A little understanding of her situation would help me tailor a plan and lure her in further."

Luo Tian was thinking.

In this harsh, frigid apocalypse, he believed that no one could withstand the near-limitless resources in his own space.

If the other party has a need, then ultimately there is no escaping it.

but.

What Luo Tian didn't know was that the anime girl avatar he had just rejected was actually the policewoman Yan herself.

When Yan Shu requested to be friends with someone, she didn't think too much about it and didn't even leave a note.

She had no idea that Luo Tian's prestige had almost been overwhelmed by the homeowners, so he generally wouldn't approve applications from unknown sources.

What kind of fancy meal would you like to have today?

Li Rou asked gently, picking up an apron and tying it around her slender waist.

As noon approached, she, as the Luo family's personal cook, had to dutifully begin preparing lunch for the three of them.

"Hmm, I learned two new dishes from the housekeeper. Why don't you come and try them at lunchtime?"

Li Rou lightly touched her cherry lips with her scallion finger and smiled, "How about choosing one of these two dishes: chicken with asparagus sauce or beef stewed in red wine?"

Because Luo Tian's space is filled with countless supplies, she can confidently learn to cook without worrying about lacking the necessary ingredients.

"I want to eat asparagus with sauce!"

Bai Ya's beautiful eyes sparkled with anticipation as she spoke.

It's not that beef is bad, but Bai Ya has been eating a lot lately, so she's getting a bit tired of it and wants to switch to chicken.

If the other residents knew about her idea, they'd probably be incredibly envious!

We're starving to death!

For almost a month now, we've been surviving on mindless snacks every day. You get delicious beef to eat, and you're still being picky?! If you don't want it, give it to us! We're not picky eaters!!

"Let's eat stewed beef."

Luo Tian's lips curled up, determined not to let Bai Ya have her way.

"Ah~ How could this be!"

Bai Ya pouted her cherry lips and put on a pitiful expression.

Seeing that Luo Tian remained unmoved, she helplessly stared with her large, watery eyes...

...

a long time.

Luo Tian smiled and said, "Then let's have stewed beef."

"Yay—Sister Li Rou, let me help you!"

Bai Ya raised her little fist in victory, giggled, and skipped and hopped towards the kitchen to help prepare lunch.

Her long, golden hair danced in the air, showcasing her energetic and beautiful girlish charm.

"Then could you help me wash the vegetables first?"

Li Rou said with a smile.

Open the refrigerator.

The large chicken legs that other residents envied were actually filling an entire shelf in the refrigerator.

Under Li Rou's skillful hands.

Before long, a delicious aroma wafted from the kitchen into the living room.

"Tsk tsk, it smells so good. Just the smell is making me hungry."

Luo Tian took a light sniff.

With Li Rou around, he was even less willing to eat the banquets ordered from restaurants.

He can now sample cuisines from various countries at his leisure.

He received praise from Luo Tian.

Li Rou paused involuntarily, a sweet smile appearing on her lips.

During the waiting time.

Luo Tian didn't sit idly by; instead, he had the butler access the building's surveillance footage to monitor the movements of everyone else.

12th floor, room number 1204.

Yan Shu hasn't come out since she went in. Luo Tian only glanced at her before looking away.

Anyway, the housekeeper will remind her when she comes out next time.
