Apocalypse Foodie System: Watch Her Cook!-Chapter 121 - 116: Partial Awakening

Pudding didn’t intentionally keep secrets from Tang Yiyi. As soon as she asked, Pudding replied honestly, "Host, this child has a foreknowledge talent. His talent was already quite good, and he likely got stimulated recently, causing him to awaken part of his foreknowledge ability. If nothing unexpected happens, he will fully awaken his Foreknowledge Ability when he becomes an adult."

Upon hearing the word "stimulation," Tang Yiyi instinctively recalled the child’s mention of his mother’s illness. She secretly speculated that perhaps it was the sudden illness of the child’s mother that stimulated him, causing him to grow up quickly and even partially awaken his foreknowledge ability.

But... how strong is his foreknowledge ability, really?

Tang Yiyi was very concerned about this, so she immediately asked the system, "Pudding, how strong is his foreknowledge ability?"

Pudding immediately replied, "He is too young now and hasn’t fully awakened. He has only awakened part of his foreknowledge ability, which is not powerful and very unstable. He can only foresee certain things when he concentrates and desperately wants to know a specific answer."

Upon hearing this, Tang Yiyi immediately began to recall, and soon she remembered that earlier, at the lottery event, the child had indeed been intensely staring at the projection screen’s dishes. At that time, she thought it was because the child was too nervous and didn’t think much of it. Now, it seems he was using his foreknowledge ability at that time.

And previously, he had stared at her for a while and then seriously said that she would soon have a son. He must have foreseen something. However, he didn’t use much time then, so the content he foresaw shouldn’t have been much.

Thinking of these events, her facial expressions became somewhat inconsistent. The store clerk in charge of filming noticed and couldn’t help but remind her, "Boss, it’s time to get off the car."

Upon hearing the words, Tang Yiyi instantly controlled her facial expressions. She nonchalantly glanced at the camera in the clerk’s hand, thinking that the scene where her expressions changed had probably been seen by many. Considering the child’s previous words and worrying about his foreknowledge ability being discovered, she purposely said seriously to the child, "I’ll try hard! I’ll strive to have a son soon!"

To those who didn’t know the truth, this naturally sounded like Tang Yiyi meant to "try hard to make a baby." Even her constantly changing expressions before were interpreted as being troubled over "how to make a baby," and not overthinking it.

While speaking, she deliberately turned her body slightly, turning her back to the camera, then winked at the child, mouthing, "Don’t let anyone know!"

She realized that this child, with the online name "Everyday," although very smart and perceptive, was ultimately too young and inexperienced. He probably didn’t know how much his ability would attract envy once discovered, leading to endless trouble!

Tang Yiyi was worried about him being targeted by those with ill intentions, so she intentionally disguised her words and subtly reminded him.

Sure enough, the child was very clever; he understood Tang Yiyi’s lip movements, and soon, he grasped her meaning, his dark, black eyes suddenly widening.

Still acting as if nothing had happened, Tang Yiyi invited the child off the car, letting him lead the way to his home. The child’s home was within the fourth ring road, in a rather remote location, in a dilapidated building. Clearly, the family’s financial situation was not good.

What surprised Tang Yiyi even more was that as soon as they reached the door, they heard a woman’s harsh voice yelling from upstairs, "Zhang! When are you going to move out? Your half-dead look is so unlucky. If you die here, how can I rent the place out to others?"

The building’s soundproofing was obviously poor, so the voice came through clearly, allowing Tang Yiyi and her party to hear every word, and even transmitted it through the camera to the internet.

At the same time, the little boy walking in front of Tang Yiyi suddenly dashed into the building at top speed!

Seeing this, Tang Yiyi and the clerk immediately had a suspicion that the person being yelled at just now must be the child’s mother. The two glanced at each other, and Tang Yiyi said, "Turn off the camera. We need to hurry inside to see if there’s anything we can do to help."

The clerk nodded, quickly shut off the camera, not daring to voice any objections.

Tang Yiyi glanced at the camera, saying nothing. She requested the video live stream to prevent fraud, but now that she discovered something was amiss with the child’s family, how could she allow the clerk to continue filming and upload it online? She’s not a journalist and there’s no need for her to make the child’s family misfortune a topic of others’ idle chatter.

In fact, upon hearing the earlier roar, she already regretted having the clerk film and live stream the video online. Sighing internally, she instructed the clerk to leave the camera in the car, then swiftly entered the building and climbed the stairs.

The building was quite run-down, with traces of time seen everywhere, appearing like a structure from many years ago. Tang Yiyi had never lived in such a place and couldn’t help but look around curiously as she walked. Thinking of the child living in such a place with a sick mother and then of her unborn child, she suddenly felt a pang of sorrow.

At this time, a voice suddenly rang out from upstairs, "Everyday’s" angry shout: "Get away! My mom is sick. You are not allowed to bully her!"

Then, the harsh voice from earlier spoke again: "Bah! Who’s bullying her? Your mom’s just a short-lived ghost. She’s on the brink of death and still clinging here without leaving. Such bad luck! Ah! You little brat dared to bite me! Let me see if I don’t beat you to death!"

"Thud!" A sound of collision rang out suddenly, followed by a woman’s panicked voice, "Haoyu!"

At this point, Tang Yiyi had already reached the third floor. Hearing this voice, her expression changed, and she quickly quickened her pace to head to the fourth floor! This tenement building had only four floors, and the sound came from the fourth!

Once she reached the fourth floor, she saw a household with the door wide open, inside came a woman’s crying voice, "Haoyu! Haoyu, are you okay? Are you alright?"

Hearing this, Tang Yiyi frowned. The voice was hoarse, with an unhideable weakness! Apparently, the voice’s owner was in poor condition! Considering the implication, the child has clearly encountered an accident!

Tang Yiyi moved faster, quickly arriving at the wide-open door, where she saw a noticeably chubby middle-aged woman holding her wrist, glaring malevolently at the child and a pale young woman.

The middle-aged woman’s chubby hand had a bite mark on it, the skin broken, with crimson blood continuously seeping out. The child sat on the floor, with a noticeable bruise on his forehead. The young woman beside him was in even worse shape, her face not only pale, but her lips also devoid of color, her eyes dim and listless.

Tang Yiyi’s heart sank. If this woman doesn’t get treatment soon, her days truly seem numbered! (To be continued.
