Chapter 61: The Long-Awaited Ice Cream
As soon as Wang Bin got home, he immediately put all the ice cream in the fridge and then applied some herbal oil to his wounds. This time, the fight with Zhou Fu left him quite injured.
Finally, when the apocalypse time began, Wang Bin quickly stored the ice cream in the system space and entered the post-apocalyptic world.
The moment he arrived in the apocalypse, Wang Bin excitedly ran out of the room.
Everyone knew today was the day Wang Bin would return, but they didn't know the exact time, so they just sat in the living room waiting.
"Everyone's here, huh? You'll never guess what good stuff I brought for you this time!" Wang Bin ran out and saw everyone was present, saving him the trouble of gathering them.
"Uncle Wang, you're back?"
"Uncle Wang, what delicious treats did you bring us this time?"
Bao and Little Nan saw Wang Bin return, seemingly bringing something good, and excitedly jumped up, grabbing his arms on either side.
"Take a guess?" Wang Bin teased them, keeping them in suspense.
"I guess it's beef jerky!"
"Little Nan, you foodie!"
"Bao, what's your guess?"
"Hmm, I guess it's chocolate!"
"Tch! You call me a foodie, but look at you!"
"Alright, alright, this time I brought you ice cream!"
"Ice cream?"
"Uncle Wang, I want ice cream!"
"Yes, yes, everyone will get some, and you'll have your fill this time!"
With that, Wang Bin magically produced a bag of ice cream, and everyone's eyes widened at the sight.

Shortly after the apocalypse began, the city lost power, making ice cream a rare commodity.
Seeing the ice cream Wang Bin brought out, everyone was moved to tears, speechless.
"Eat up, don't just stand there, it'll melt soon!"
"Yes, yes, everyone, hurry and eat!"
Even Li Chengping, who was nearly fifty, didn't hold back and took an ice cream, savoring it slowly.
Officer Miao and the others ate with some decorum, but Bao and Little Nan devoured theirs ravenously, finishing in no time, then looked at each other.
Seeing them finish so quickly, Li Xiaolu teased them while eating hers slowly.
"Oh, it's so sweet, I've never had such delicious ice cream!"
"You ate too fast, didn't even get to taste it properly!"
"Me too!"
Bao and Little Nan watched Li Xiaolu eat her ice cream and regretted eating theirs so quickly. They should have taken small bites like her.
Seeing Bao and Little Nan watching Li Xiaolu eat, Wang Bin smiled and took out two more from the plastic bag for them.
"Ah! Uncle Wang, wasn't it one per person?" Bao and Little Nan asked incredulously as they took the ice cream.
"Other items can be stored for a long time, but not ice cream. Plus, I bought a lot this time, so eat as much as you can, until you're full!"
"Yay! Uncle Wang, you're the best!"
Hearing this, Bao and Little Nan didn't hold back and started eating the ice cream in big bites again.
Li Xiaolu, hearing that she could have more, also sped up and finished hers, then took another from the bag.
"One is enough for me, the rest is yours!" Li Chengping said after finishing his ice cream, planning to give his share to Bao and the others.
"I'll give mine to you too!" Seeing Li Chengping do so, Li Dazhu also decided to give his share to the younger ones.
Li Dazhu had gotten along well with everyone recently, treating Bao and Little Nan as his siblings, often considering their needs.
"I'll have one more!" Guan Xiaoyue didn't hold back, grabbing another ice cream of a different flavor after finishing one.
The adults mostly had one or two, leaving the rest for Li Xiaolu and the others. In the end, Bao and Little Nan were stuffed, yet there were still two left in the bag.
"Come on, eat up, there are still two left, they'll melt soon!" Wang Bin urged everyone when he saw the two remaining.
"I, uh, can't eat anymore!"
"Me neither!" Bao and Little Nan said, patting their full bellies and burping.
Wang Bin asked around, but no one wanted more. He had one himself and didn't want another.
"Since no one else wants them, I'll put them in a bowl for Bao and the others to have tomorrow!"
"Okay!"
After Sister Liu put the remaining ice cream in a bowl, Wang Bin smiled and said, "Don't worry, once we settle down, I'll get you a generator and a fridge, so you can have ice cream every day!"
"Wow, Uncle Wang, you're amazing!"
Bao and Little Nan, moved by his words, hugged Wang Bin and cried.
In the apocalypse, only Officer Miao and Li Chengping had kindly taken them in. Even so, they had suffered a lot. Now, with Wang Bin providing them with endless food and a promising future, the two little ones were overwhelmed with gratitude.
The others were also moved, feeling just as grateful to Wang Bin, though they were older and didn't express it as openly as Bao and Little Nan.
Officer Miao came over to comfort the two, and they eventually stopped crying.
"Officer Miao, Xiaoyue, Uncle Li, and Dazhu, I have something else for you." Wang Bin said, taking out four military watches from the system space and handing them over. "Without a watch, it's inconvenient for you to act. From now on, every combat member will have one."
"Yes!" Li Dazhu nodded in agreement.
Once everyone had put on their watches, Wang Bin synchronized the time for them and asked if anything had happened recently.
Officer Miao reported that nothing major had occurred, but the zombies seemed to have become more aggressive. Occasionally, they would see some zombies attacking their companions, and after killing them, they would start devouring the flesh.
Wang Bin frowned upon hearing this, unsure if it was good or bad. Logically, zombies attacking each other would reduce their numbers, but he felt it wasn't that simple.
After discussing, Bao and Little Nan asked Wang Bin to teach them guitar. He didn't refuse and began teaching them, while the others sat quietly listening.
The night passed like this, and the next day, after breakfast, everyone packed up to move.
Due to his injuries, Wang Bin didn't drive but let Officer Miao take the wheel.
Wang Bin noticed more zombies along the way, and they seemed much faster than before, giving him a sense of impending trouble.
