However, based on her understanding of Huo Siqian, that shouldn't be the case.
Even if Huo Siqian left the island for work, he would at least tell her to prepare some ingredients for her to eat.
But now …
For the entire day, Huo Mien went out for a walk around the island and then went to the beach to daydream.
She didn't have an appetite in the afternoon, so she didn't go back for lunch. She wondered why Huo Siqian didn't look for her today.
In the past, whenever she didn't go back for lunch, Huo Siqian would anxiously look for her all over the island.
He would even bring food for her, afraid that she would be hungry …
A rumbling sound came from his stomach …
Huo Mien touched her stomach and felt that she was being selfish. Even if she didn't eat, the baby in her stomach still had to eat.
Moreover, she wasn't a rich young lady who didn't do household chores.
She might as well cook for herself. Who cares where Huo Siqian went? Wouldn't it be better if he left? She wouldn't be bored if she was alone.
At this thought, Huo Mien got up and went to the kitchen.
She found basic ingredients like rice, flour, and corn oil.
There was no refrigerator on the island. It wasn't because electricity was troublesome, but because Huo Siqian might want to return to his primitive life.
He tried his best not to use those advanced appliances …
Whether it was cooking or stir-frying, he used a big iron pot in the kitchen. The bottom of the iron pot was burning wood.
Every morning, Huo Siqian would go out to look for wood and chop it into firewood. He enjoyed it very much.
According to Huo Siqian, the food that his subordinates sent was always stored in a cellar behind the wooden house.
Huo Mien knew about cellars. When she was in university, she went out for an internship.
She once went to a backward village with her teachers and classmates. In that village, water and electricity were scarce.
Not to mention appliances. Therefore, in the summer …
To prevent the vegetables from going bad too quickly, every family would store some food and necessities in the cellar.
It was similar to the cellar of a villa in the city, but it was definitely not as luxurious.
In fact, it was just a pit that was dug by hand and made into a ladder. The temperature in the basement was very low.
Huo Mien had also heard from Huo Siqian that the supplies sent by his subordinates were all in the cellar.
However, she had never seen what the cellar looked like …
He wasn't interested either.
Huo Mien used the remaining firewood from yesterday to burn the iron pot.
Then, he added water. Using the primitive method, he put water and rice in a small basin and then steamed them in an iron pot.
As for the vegetables, she looked around and only found the leftover green pepper eggs from yesterday.
She picked it up and smelled it. She felt that the smell had changed, so she threw it away.
Huo Mien didn't pay much attention to the problem of vegetables at first. He thought that it would be fine to eat them casually.
But then she suddenly thought of a very serious problem.
She couldn't eat every meal, right? If Huo Siqian didn't come back for one or two days, what was she going to eat to survive?
In the end, Huo Mien calmed down and thought about it. He decided to take a look at the cellar.
She wanted to see how much food was left. At least she couldn't starve to death on this deserted island.
As for the reason why Huo Siqian left the island, she was too lazy to think about it.
Then, Huo Mien opened the door and walked towards the back of the wooden house …
That was where Huo Siqian often went, so she rarely went there and had no interest in it.
When she got close to the cellar, Huo Mien started to feel inexplicably anxious …
It felt like she knew that something bad was going to happen, but she couldn't stop walking.
