They returned in triumph in the year of Xin.

Xiao Guang clapped his little hands, his big, bright eyes staring at her.

"Uncle is so fast! So amazing!"

Xin Sui squatted down in front of him, pretending to be weak: "Fighting is so tiring, I need Xiao Guangguang's kisses to recover."

She even brought her face close to his, waiting for his jelly-like lips to land on her.

Xuan Wei and the others: "..."

Shameless.

The innocent little Guang couldn't understand the adults' scheming. He really thought Xin Sui was tired, so he picked up her face and kissed her.

"Wow, Xiao Guangguang's kiss is amazing! Uncle is instantly revitalized!"

Xin Sui picked up the little guy and lifted him high in the air.

Xiao Guang was both scared and happy, and he kept laughing.

Wu Cheng, who was beaten so badly he couldn't get up, was carried back by his teammates. He was still in a bad mood when he saw "Lou Kai" playing so happily with the children, and he started talking nonsense again.

"Lou Kai, cough cough, don't be so smug. I was careless this time, but next time—"

Xin Sui looked at him in surprise: "You haven't been beaten enough yet? You want a next time? Looks like I went too easy on you this time."

Wu Cheng was so angry that he spat out a mouthful of blood, his eyes rolled back, and he fainted.

The team members at Dahao Base all glared angrily at Xin Sui.

Xin Sui grinned arrogantly at them, "What are you looking at? You don't like it? Come on, let's have a one-on-one fight!"

One of the team members actually tried to rush over, but was stopped by his teammates.

"Don't bother with him. Let him get arrogant. We can teach him a lesson on the field for the captain later."

This statement seems to imply that they will encounter "Lou Kai" again later.

Xin Sui's eyes seemed to be deep in thought.

Looking at the large, eye-catching screen in the competition arena, is the number the pointer on the spinning wheel really random?

By noon, Lou Kun's base had not been selected again.

The match is temporarily suspended and will resume at 2 p.m.

The two hours in between are for everyone to eat and rest.

Xin Sui picked up Xiao Guang and got up. "Come on, let's go out for a walk and see if there's anything good to eat."

When she arrived, she saw many people setting up stalls outside the competition venue, selling food, clothes, daily necessities... like a small market.

Duan Feng, the healing-type ability user who came with the group, wasn't very interested in shopping, so he said, "You guys go ahead, I'll go wander around somewhere else."

After saying that, he turned and walked in another direction.

I don't even want to go shopping at the real estate exhibition.

Even though it's the apocalypse, he still has very little interest in things like shopping.

Moreover, Lou Kai was shopping with several of his women, so what was the point of him getting involved?

He didn't want to see Lou Kai flirting and being all lovey-dovey with several women.

"Brother, I..."

"Don't go, help us carry our things later."

The year of Xin is beyond reproach.

Lou Zhan clenched his fist. How could he, a dignified second-tier lightning-type ability user, carry things for him?

What did he take him for?

Does he think he's still the illegitimate son he used to be bossed around before the apocalypse?

After standing there for a while, he finally caught up with them.

Xin Sui smelled the aroma of barbecue, pressed her cheek against Xiao Guang's, and asked him, "Do you want to eat barbecue?"

Xiao Guang nodded and said crisply, "I want to."

Arriving at the barbecue stall, Xin Sui looked at it for a while but couldn't tell what kind of meat the stall owner was grilling.

"Boss, what kind of meat are you grilling? How much is it?"

While basting the grilled meat with sauce, the owner said, "This is the meat of a mutated duck. My friend and I finally managed to catch a wild mutated duck. The meat is plump and tender. One bite and it's amazing!"

"Paired with my exclusive sauce, I guarantee you'll want to keep eating it."

"The price isn't expensive either; one crystal core is worth two strings, and you get a 10% discount if you buy more than 10 strings."

"Hey handsome, how about buying two skewers for your kid and wife to try?"

The stall owner clearly mistook Xin Sui for a nouveau riche with several wives.

In the apocalypse, polygamy and polyandry are not uncommon.

As long as you have the power and the means, having a harem is not a dream.

Xuanwei complained about the price: "One crystal core for two skewers of grilled meat, and each skewer has only a tiny bit of meat. Are you trying to rip us off?"

He tugged at Xin Sui: "Let's go, don't buy any more. Next time I'll catch a few ducks and we'll roast them ourselves."

Stall owner: "Miss, you can't say that. Mutant ducks can swim in the water and fly in the sky, and they are also very powerful. It's not easy to catch one."

"My friend and I risked our lives to leave the base and capture it. And that wasn't all; I plucked its feathers, marinated and roasted it. It took a lot of effort. How can the price be too high?"

A voice chimed in: "That's right, if you think it's too expensive, you don't have to buy it. What are you doing blocking the way? You poor bastards."

The man who spoke walked over and said generously, "Boss, give me ten skewers of grilled meat."

"Okay, please wait a moment."

Xin Sui glanced at the newcomer and felt that he looked familiar. He seemed to be one of the people who had mocked her that morning.

She wasn't angry at all, and said with a smile, "Oh my, a tycoon has arrived, buying ten skewers of grilled meat right off the bat. He's really rich."

Ruan Peipei chuckled.

"Yes, they are so rich! It's really an eye-opener for me."

Zou Qiang didn't realize the two were being sarcastic at all; he genuinely thought Xin Sui and the other man were praising him.

He took out five crystal cores and tossed them to the boss, then gave Xin Sui a smug look.

Xin Sui: "..."

Just as she was speechless, another person arrived.

Her hair was slicked back, and she wore a watch on her wrist, which was clearly visible.

"Boss, I'll treat all the barbecue here to these beautiful ladies."
