Xiao Han's fingers that were pinching the raw meat suddenly tightened, and the nonchalant look on his face instantly disappeared, replaced by an extreme alertness: "Spying on superpowers? Damn, there is such a perverted thing?"

He threw the meat back into the package, as if it was a hot potato and he had lost all his appetite. "Then, damn, we are like naked in front of him. All our cards will be exposed to him."

Li Kui's face turned pale, his lips trembled uncontrollably, and his throat became dry: "Then...then if he wants to...want to harm us...why don't we..."

He looked around in fear, feeling that Pan Yong's invisible gaze was now fixed on the wall, which made him feel creepy.

Your own ability is estimated by others very clearly, and even your hidden skills may be exposed under other people's noses?

This thought sent a chill down Su Wan's spine, and his lower abdomen tightened.

Xiao Han turned to Lu Shiyan, his voice cold: "If he really has that ability, how much of that note saying 'Tiger in danger, be careful' is a sincere reminder and how much is a calculation?"

Lu Shiyan remained silent, his slender fingers tapping lightly on the cold window glass again and again, making a monotonous "knock, knock" sound, striking the nerves of everyone present.

"There may be a little bit of sincerity, but calculation definitely accounts for the majority." He spoke each word with certainty.

"He has figured out our strength, so he doesn't dare to act rashly, and even takes the initiative to show goodwill. But at the same time, he is also calculating whether our few stones, thrown into the pool of water he is trying to muddy, can create the waves he wants."

He paused, his voice getting even colder: "Or, let's see if we are qualified enough to be his grindstone."

"Whetstone?!" Li Xinhu gasped, a chill running from the soles of his feet to his forehead, "We've just landed here! Are we going to fight this old fox hiding in the dark?"

This was too exciting, he felt like his heart was about to jump out of his throat.

"Where there are people, there are rivers and lakes. Where there are rivers and lakes, there are calculations. Where there are calculations, there will inevitably be fighting and killing. In the end times, this is an iron law, and no one can escape it."

Xiao Han's lips curled into a sinister arc, picked up the piece of meat again, and threw it to Li Kui, who was still shivering beside him.

"Here, Lao Li, you two brothers should eat this. This is the 'goodwill' that Boss Pan 'sent' to our door. If you don't eat it, it will be a waste. If you eat it... it will also be a waste."

There was a hint of teasing in his voice, but his eyes were as cold as ice. "You want to use us as a whetstone? Ha, aren't you afraid of breaking his broken knife?"

"Master Lu, what do you mean?"

Lu Shiyan has been listening in silence.

Then he smiled.

The smile was very faint, and there was almost no emotion in it, but it inexplicably relaxed the tense atmosphere in the room. He looked at Xiao Han, and their eyes met in the air. Without saying a word, they seemed to understand each other's thoughts instantly. It was a tacit understanding, a trust and understanding that they had cultivated together on the brink of life and death countless times.

Su Wan also noticed this brief exchange between them. She frowned slightly. Lu Shiyan's calmness surprised her, but it also made her feel a little relieved.

The corners of his mouth curled up meaningfully: "Didn't he say 'the net is already tied, the tiger is in danger'? Since the net is already there, we might as well be the fish that fall into the net. However, who will catch whom is still unknown."

Xiao Han's eyes suddenly lit up when he heard this. His previous irritability and vigilance were replaced by an eager excitement: "You mean... to use their tricks against you?"

Lu Shiyan did not comment, but said calmly: "In the face of absolute strength, all calculations are futile. But before that, why not play with them?" He looked at Su Wan: "The problem of your ability being exposed that you are worried about is already possible, so we must not panic. The more so, the more we must perform... in line with his 'expectations', or, exceed his expectations."

Li Kui was confused, but seeing how confident Lu Shiyan and Xiao Han were, the fear in his heart dissipated a little. He whispered to Li Xinhu beside him, "Brother, what does Brother Lu mean? Shall we...shall we not run?"

Li Xinhu understood a little more than him, but it was only a partial understanding. He lowered his voice and said, "It seems to be saying...we pretend to listen to Pan Yong and then secretly deal with him?"

A'mo had been standing silently in the corner. At this moment, he raised his head and looked at Lu Shiyan, with a barely perceptible firmness flashing in his eyes.

Su Wan took a deep breath. Lu Shiyan's words relaxed her tense nerves. Yes, since she might have been seen through, being timid would only make her lose face.

She nodded. "I understand. If he wants to see, let him see enough. But what he sees may not be all."

Xiao Han laughed and slapped his thigh, "Right! Let's do it! I want to see what tricks Pan Yong and Lei Lao Hu behind him can come up with! If they want to use us as pawns, they have to see if they are strong enough!" He glanced at the meat in Li Kui's arms and said jokingly, "Brother Lao Hu, you can eat this meat without worry. Maybe there will be more advanced 'bait' waiting for us in the future!"

Li Kui nodded blankly, feeling that the atmosphere changed too quickly and he couldn't keep up with the pace. But seeing that everyone seemed less scared, he also mustered up some courage and muttered softly: "Then...then I'll grill the meat first?"

Li Xinhu and Li Kui were busy in the kitchen, pots and pans clanged, the fire was burning brightly, and the aroma of meat mixed with the spicy smell of spices wafted out.

Kui was holding a large spoon in one hand and the edge of the wok with the other, stir-frying something with great effort, muttering to himself, "Add more oil, brother! Brother Lu and the others will definitely like to eat something greasy!" Beads of sweat were oozing from his forehead, but his face was filled with excitement.

Li Xinhu was relatively calm, concentrating on cutting the meat on the chopping board. His knife skills were not superb, but every cut was steady.

Hearing Li Kui's words, he hummed, and the corners of his mouth unconsciously lifted up. Once upon a time, let alone so much meat, even a decent compressed biscuit had to be eaten sparingly. The days now are simply unimaginable.

Soon, several steaming dishes were placed on the table. A large plate of roasted meat with oil sizzling on the surface, a pot of stewed potatoes, and a plate of golden fried eggs with beautiful burnt edges.

Li Kui brought out the last dish and placed it on the table like a treasure. He wiped his nose with his sleeve and said with a chuckle, "It's done! Come and have a taste of my cooking, brothers!"

He looked at the table full of dishes with his eyes shining. He couldn't help swallowing his saliva, "Wow, this is much better than chewing those hard compressed biscuits! In the past, no one cared about us!"

Xiao Han had already come over, and unceremoniously tore off a piece of roasted meat and stuffed it into his mouth. He gasped at the heat and praised incoherently, "Good job, Kuizi, you're quite good! The meat is roasted to a crisp on the outside and tender on the inside, and it's very tasty!"

Li Xinhu took off his apron and looked at everyone's unceremonious faces, feeling relieved. Looking at the real food in front of him and his companions who were no longer nervous, he felt that his previous worries were unnecessary.

He picked up the chopsticks, picked up a piece of meat, chewed slowly, and felt the satisfaction brought by the food.

This team is indeed different. He glanced at the grinning Li Kui. This kid finally didn't have to complain about not having meat to eat every day.
