Qin Xiao was not receiving an IV drip at the moment, so Ji Xia didn't need to feed him. After putting the food in front of him and waiting for Qin Xiao to eat it himself, she lay down on the camp bed, pulled a quilt over herself, and fell asleep as soon as she closed her eyes.
Qin Xiao glanced at Ji Xia's canvas bag. There seemed to be endless things inside that he could take out, but he didn't hesitate to take it out. He scooped up a spoonful of rice with a stainless steel spoon and put it in his mouth. The crystal clear rice was soaked in the thick beef broth and was very tasty. It was rich, sweet and sour and very appetizing.
The portions of food were very generous. The thick beef brisket was stewed until it was soft and tender, but not greasy, and the chewy texture spread widely. Before he knew it, Qin Xiao felt his stomach was a little bloated after finishing a large portion of rice.
This was truly the best tomato beef brisket he had ever eaten, with bright color and amazing taste.
After taking a sip of the old duck tripe soup, Qin Xiao took out all the meat inside and ate it. He then drank half a can of soup. He couldn't finish the rest, so he put it aside.

Qin Xiao's face flushed red. He turned his eyes away, touched the switch with his hand, and with a click, turned off the spotlight above his head, leaving only the corridor light at the door. He closed his eyes, but only he knew that his heart was restless and had nowhere to go.
