Just as they were enjoying their meal, there was another knock on the car door. This time it was Zhou Xinyi.

Zhou Xinyi had just settled the wounded soldiers and came over to bring them some canned military rations.

During the battle with the mutated bison, the members of the Song of Ice and Fire team saved many warriors. Lin Xuan alone used the invisibility vine to pull several people out of the bison's encirclement.

To express their gratitude, Zhou Xinyi and his soldiers saved a box of canned meat from their own rations and sent it to the Song of Ice and Fire squad.

The military rations canned are also made from mutated beast meat, and they taste better than regular jerky, so they're quite presentable.

Gu Xinghuo opened the car door, and when Zhou Xinyi saw the scene inside the car and smelled the odor, he had the same thought as Lin Xuan.

No, what kind of nice person would eat beef hot pot so early in the morning?

"Brother, would you like to come up and have something to eat?" Gu Xinghuo warmly invited Zhou Xinyi.

Zhou Xinyi reluctantly declined, saying, "No, Xinghuo, I came to bring you some canned military rations to thank your team members for their help to our soldiers just now."

"Oh, my dear brother, there's no need for such formalities among brothers."

Gu Xinghuo warmly embraced Zhou Xinyi and chatted for a while. Before leaving, she even stuffed a bag of large potatoes into his hand.

Zhou Xinyi brought over some military rations and opened a few on the spot, letting everyone have a taste.

The taste was alright, but it was nowhere near as good as beef hot pot.

Lin Xuan also took a bite.

Salty! I'll eat it.

Xia Feng then asked her cheekily, "Want me to toast some bread slices to eat with?"

"I won't eat it!" Lin Xuan continued to gnaw on the cucumber.

"Aww~"

After being dragged away by the furious Xia Feng, Lin Xuan's other half of her face also got a big purple spot, making it more even.

When they were finishing their hotpot, Zhou Xinyi announced the departure over the walkie-talkie.

The team members then reluctantly put down their chopsticks.

Su Ye put the remaining pot broth into his spatial storage. In the evening, he would add some water, then cook some noodles made from mutated wheat flour, add the leftover vegetables, and have another bowl of hot noodle soup.
