Qiu Hongying was speechless at her words, and angrily said, "What's so great about it?" before turning and leaving.
As soon as she left, everyone in Team Six gave her a thumbs up. Zhang Xin said, "Sister Chi is a force to be reckoned with. I admire you so much!"
Chi Xia blinked, her face calm: "Did I say anything wrong?"
Several people said in unison, "No."
The team members in Team Six had a clear division of labor: Liu Daniu was in charge of finding firewood, Chi Xia was in charge of lighting the fire, Li Han was the chef, and Meng Yang and Zhang Xin were in charge of washing and picking vegetables and serving as a chopping block. Before long, the camp where Team Six was located began to smell the aroma of food.
The teams that had initially scoffed at their behavior couldn't help but swallow hard when they smelled the aroma of food, saw them spread out tablecloths and sit on the ground with dishes, rice, and soup, and even a mutated red-haired dog was eating meat and drinking soup.
Even those who were trying to suppress their saliva suddenly found that the dry food in their hands didn't taste good at all.
This is a real-life example of "humans are worse than dogs"...
Several people brazenly approached and asked, "What's that smells so good? Let us see."
Liu Daniu glanced at them and said, "Haha, our Brother Li's cooking is better than any chef's. You can just watch, you won't get to eat any anyway."
Li Han glared at him and said to the group, "He's just a simpleton who can't speak properly. Don't mind him. I have a bowl here. If you don't mind, you can have some soup."
Liu Daniu was glared at by Li Han and realized he had said the wrong thing. He immediately said, "Don't mind me. I'm just a rough guy and don't know how to talk. Come on, come on, have some soup with me."
The group didn't mind and sat down. They each drank half a bowl of soup and then refused to leave.
After they started, many more people came one after another. Fortunately, a lot of soup was cooked, so that everyone could have a taste.
A bowl of soup instantly elevated Li Han's image in their minds, and they all clamored, "Brother Li, do you think we should cook more tonight? Our rations are just too awful."
Li Han shrugged: "I would like to, but I didn't bring much food."
Those people immediately regretted it: "If we had known, why did we bring any dry rations? With Brother Li here, we could have just brought ingredients!"
"That's right. From now on, with Brother Li around on missions, I won't bring any dry rations. I'll just bring rice and ingredients. If all else fails, I'll bring some noodles. I'll ask Brother Li to cook them for me then."
Li Han, flattered and adored, picked up a piece of food with his delicate fingers and put it in his mouth. He nodded readily and said, "Sure, we're all brothers, it's no big deal."
Having received the promise and seeing that they wouldn't actually get any food, those people chatted for a while and then dispersed.
Liu Daniu was puzzled: "Brother Li, why are you so nice to them? You even agreed to cook for them. Didn't you see the look of disgust on their faces when we brought so many ingredients this morning?"
Upon hearing this, Li Han grabbed his chopsticks and smacked him on the head.
Seeing Liu Daniu clutching his head and wailing, Li Han glanced at him and said, "Humans are social animals after all. Our Sixth Team is too big and attracts a lot of attention. We've already offended quite a few people. We can't afford to offend everyone. We should use our brains more often and stop making noise all the time."
Chi Xia nodded: "Brother Li is right. To them, we are already outsiders, and we have offended quite a few people. In any case, we are all from the same base, so we should definitely try to be on good terms with them. We can't just keep sticking together for warmth."
