But it's better than nothing! Junjue's voice was filled with helplessness and bitterness.
Wan'er shook off her hand, her body trembling, a look of fear flashing in her eyes. "But...this tastes terrible."
This stuff is not only hard to chew, but it also scratches your throat. It's tough, unpalatable, and smells awful. How could they even think of eating something like this?
Junjue swallowed the last bite of meat with great effort. His throat stung a little, but he resolutely raised his head and looked into Wan'er's eyes.
"This is their life now. They are not like us. They must learn to adapt, or they will starve to death."
"Now all the land in the world is corroded and buried deep underground by acid rain. The toxins inside combine with the wastewater from the Black Sea, and nothing can grow there in several years." His voice was firm yet reassuring.
Wan'er bit her lip and fell silent, her heart filled with fear of the future.
Junjue noticed the confusion in Wan'er's heart, and he gently reached out and took Wan'er's hand.
"Believe me, Wan'er, they will get through this difficult time. As long as they support each other and stick together, they will definitely find a better solution."
Wan'er raised her head and looked into Junjue's warm eyes. She smiled slightly and felt that the fear in her heart seemed to have calmed down a bit.
"Baby! Give me everything you can't finish! My Wan'er deserves the best. What would you like to eat?"
"Hehe! I just want two steamed buns! Compared to this, steamed buns are a million times tastier!" Wan'er said in a low voice without any politeness.
"Okay! Eat the steamed buns first, and we'll eat something with a stronger flavor when we get back!" Junjue replied softly, taking out two hot steamed buns from his spatial storage and handing them to her.
Wan'er took the steamed bun, her eyes welling up with tears, and choked out, "Thank you, Lord Jun! You're so good to me!"
"Silly girl, we are each other's one and only, no need to be so polite, eat up!"
The two of them continued eating, one munching on a sweet and soft steamed bun, the other eating the two unpalatable meals.
Their conversation was unspoken, but their eyes conveyed mutual understanding and support.
In this canteen filled with terrifying and unpalatable ingredients, a glimmer of hope appeared in the hearts of the two people.
Even if the meat tasted terrible, people lined up eagerly to get it, because there was only one free meal a day, and if they didn't eat it, they would starve to death.
However, this stuff is really hard to eat. Many people eat it for a few days and still can't get used to it. They can't help but vomit while eating it, but no one complains!
There are over 100,000 people in the official shelters, and supplies are so scarce right now. They ran out of food a while ago, so having this to eat is better than drinking blood and urine!
