Chen Wan prepared the meal for the flowers and asked them to stay in one place and eat quietly without making any noise. Then he and everyone else started to prepare the meal. Jiang Yanxin also called Qi Jing and the other two from 401 upstairs. They were all friends, so it would be nice for them to get together and get to know each other.
Qin Ke was cutting the mutant pork and luncheon meat, Chen Wan was soaking all the things that needed to be soaked, such as black fungus, day lily, and bean curd sheets, and Jiang Wanning was cutting cabbage and lettuce. Everyone did their job, and soon everything needed for dinner was prepared.
Wei Siyu and the others quickly exchanged their points, and several of them rushed to Chen Wan and the others. Even the somewhat confused Zhao Jingjing felt the happiness of her companions and became happy too.
On the way, they passed by a points redemption point. Wei Siyu used her points to redeem 10 kilograms of mutant mutton, and prepared to take it over for everyone to eat together.
Five minutes later, there was a knock on Chen Wan's door. Chen Wan hurried out to open it, "Come in, we're almost ready."
"Let's cut all the mutton together so that we can eat together." Wei Siyu smiled and handed over the mutton in her hand.
"Okay, we were planning to eat hotpot anyway." Chen Wan brought the meat in and Qin Ke continued to cut the meat.
Chen Wan introduced Wei Siyu to the new friends they met in Beijing. "This is Qi Jing and her two companions. They are friends we met in Beijing. This is Wei Siyu and her team."
"Hello." Qi Jing smiled and greeted.
"We are all Chen Wan's friends, so we will be friends from now on." Wei Siyu replied with a smile.
"That's right, let's all get to know each other so that we can take care of each other in the future. Let's find a place to sit first." There were twenty people in total, and there were four Huahuas. Although it was a suite, it seemed a bit crowded for a moment.
When the Huahuas saw the people coming, they were so excited that their tails were shaking like propellers. They reached out to Wei Siyu, and then went to pry at Qiao Shirui and the others.
After all, the children like small animals. After a short while, they became familiar with the four flowers and played with them while sitting on the bedroom floor.
The little girl woke up when she heard the noise. She was so happy to see so many people coming to her house that she let Jiang Wanning hold her and tour every room.
Wei Siyu and Qi Jing thought the little guy was adorable, so they took him away from Jiang Wanning's arms. The kid was not panicked when being taken away by two aunts he was not very familiar with. He just nestled in their arms and started playing with them.
When eating
Chen Wan specially prepared two pots and prepared to eat the meat separately, one in the restaurant and the other in the living room.
Chen Wan kept putting meat and vegetables in the living room, and Qin Ke did the same in the dining room, putting meat and vegetables into the pot non-stop.
Shen Mingyan and Yiyi didn't have to eat, so they took a few dogs to the bedroom to play to avoid the chaos caused by too many people and dogs. Although it was a bit chaotic, it was also really lively.
As Chen Wan put all the sweet potato flour into the pot, he said to Jiang Yanxin, "Yanxin, get the meat."
"Okay." Jiang Yanxin brought over the sliced mutton. Chen Wan used a few chopsticks to put in most of the meat, which made Qiao Shirui and the others' eyes light up.
They followed Wei Siyu and went directly to the first district after the flood. They did not encounter ice and snow like Chen Wan and the others. After coming here, they have been following Wei Siyu to go out to carry out tasks for the military, so there is no shortage of food. However, when it comes to hot pot like today, it is the first time for them to come to the base. Even Zhao Jingjing's somewhat dazed face was covered with a smile.
She still had some resistance towards people she was not familiar with, but she did not have any big reaction. However, she was not averse to Qiao Shirui and the others who had come with her all the way. When Qiao Shirui saw that the meat in the pot was almost done, she took Li Jingjing's bowl and served her a lot of meat and vegetables. Li Jingjing would even smile at her.
Seeing Qi Jing and the other two were at the back, Chen Wan quickly called out to them, "Qi Jing, come here. Hot pot is best enjoyed when we're all crowded together. If you three stand any further, we'll all be kicked out."
Wei Siyu looked at Qi Jing, smiled and greeted her, "Come over here, I'll help you serve."
Wei Siyu thought that the Omegas were thin-skinned, unlike them, the alphas. They had already kept their eyes on what they were going to get before the pot was even opened. If they were too late, there would be nothing left.
Qi Jing and Wei Siyu were not familiar with each other, so she didn't feel comfortable asking Wei Siyu to help her serve the food. She quickly said, "No, I can do it myself."
"Leave it to me. You haven't picked up much meat with your chopsticks from the beginning until now." Wei Siyu smiled and reached out to take Qi Jing's bowl.
Seeing that her hands were empty, Qi Jing glanced at Wei Siyu lightly, and the tips of her ears turned slightly red.
Chen Wan looked at Wei Siyu and then at Qi Jing, his eyes rolling. He swallowed a mouthful of meat before joking with a smile, "Hey, Wei Siyu, have you counted how many mouthfuls of meat I've eaten since the beginning? How come Qi Jing remembers it so clearly?"
Qi Jing listened to Chen Wan's words
As she said this, her ears on both sides turned a light pink, and she pursed her lips shyly, not saying much.
Wei Siyu, however, heard the hint of "snapping" in Chen Wan's words and replied with a smile, "I only touched my chopsticks a few times, so of course I remember. Unlike you, you haven't stopped since you picked up your chopsticks."
After Wei Siyu finished speaking, everyone laughed. Chen Wan smiled and said, "That's right. Then you take good care of Qi Jing for me. I'm far away and can't reach her."
As Chen Wan spoke, he winked at Jiang Yanxin.
She felt that Qi Jing and Wei Siyu were a good match. Both of them were naive and kind people. When she met Wei Siyu, she thought Wei Siyu was ridiculously nice. She waved a flashlight on the side of the road to remind passing vehicles to stay away from the "Tomorrow" base. But after all, she was the heroine of the original book, and it was normal for her to have the ambition to save the world. But after Chen Wan met Qi Jing, she realized that she was wrong. Qi Jing was even more ridiculously nice than Wei Siyu. She almost fainted from excessive blood loss, but she still saved so many ungrateful people.
These two are truly rare and kind people in the end times. This is Chen Wan’s true thought.
Wei Siyu knew Chen Wan was joking, so she smiled and continued, "Don't worry, Qi Jing and I are friends now, and it's only natural to take care of a friend."
While she was talking, she had already used chopsticks to help Qi Jing pick up a bowl full of meat and vegetables. Wei Siyu smiled and handed the bowl to Qi Jing.
Qi Jing's ears blushed as she thanked him: "Thank you."
After Wei Siyu helped Qi Jing pick up the food, she was about to help Qi Jing's companions.
Li Xiaoxiao's eyes moved around Wei Siyu and Qi Jing, and she smiled as she avoided Wei Siyu's hand. "Just help our Qi Jing pick up the dishes. Wanwan and I can take care of ourselves. Look, there's plenty of meat in our bowls."
"That's right." Kang Wan smiled, looking very sensible. Qi Jing, on the other hand, felt a little embarrassed.
She looked towards Wei Siyu, and when Wei Siyu looked over, she quickly looked away, looking at her bowl, and said to Wei Siyu shyly, "I'll do it myself next time."
"Okay, I'll help you later if you don't get enough food. After all, Chen Wan, Jin Can and the others eat too fast. And Shi Tou, look at that full bowl. Half the pot of meat is gone." Wei Siyu laughed and joked with her friends while helping Qi Jing resolve the embarrassment.
The stone man was tall and strong, and he was an alpha. Chen Wan had given him a large bowl that matched his temperament at the beginning. And sure enough, he was eating happily with a full bowl. He didn't have any of the ferocity he usually had when dealing with enemies and zombies, but instead looked a little silly.
He was Wei Siyu
He smiled but wasn't angry. He sighed and said with a smile, "After all, I'm in a good mood, so it's only natural that I eat more. We have a place to stay after arriving at the base, but the sense of belonging is still lacking. Chen Wan, we are really happy that you have come to the first district as well. In the apocalypse, there is nothing happier than being with friends. This is how we feel like home."
"That's true. Hotpot is more delicious when there are a lot of people scrambling to eat it." Chen Wan smiled and continued to add meat.
They cut a lot of mutant lamb and mutant pork, enough for everyone to eat their fill.
Ye Lan and Jiang Zhaoyuan coaxed the baby to eat for a while and then took him to Yiyi and Shen Mingyan's place. After all, they were old and their appetites were indeed not as good as those of the young people. In order to make some room, Li Xiaoxiao and Kang Wan simply went to Qin Ke's place. Seeing that there was room there, Wei Siyu's three friends also went there.
There were suddenly fewer people on Chen Wan's side. Chen Wan opened beer, red wine and drinks. She drank beer herself, while Jiang Yanxin drank some red wine.
Wei Siyu also drank beer, while Qi Jing and several children drank juice.
By the time everyone had almost finished eating, almost two hours had passed. Chen Wan and Jiang Yanxin wanted to wash the pot, but were stopped by Qi Jing and Wei Siyu. They said that the meal was prepared by Chen Wan and they would take charge of washing the pot.
Chen Wan and Jiang Yanxin simply went to see what Zizi was doing, and saw that the little girl was being held in Qiao Shirui's arms and being teased. She was no longer afraid of people and was having fun playing with her brothers and sisters and aunts. Even when Chen Wan and the others came in, she didn't show any intention of coming to find Chen Wan.
Everyone had dinner late to begin with, and it took quite a while. Before they knew it, it was almost 10 o'clock after playing with the baby for a while. Although it was safe in District 1, it was still not reassuring to go out at night. Wei Siyu and the others went back first, and planned to come back tomorrow to tell Chen Wan and the others about the specific situation in District 1. They lived in Unit 2, 101 and 102, Building 21, which was some distance away from Building 76 where Chen Wan and the others lived, and it would take about ten minutes to walk.
Seeing that it was getting late, Chen Wan didn't keep them any longer. He told them to be careful, then tidied up the house again and took the little one back to the room to prepare for bed.
Chen Wan looked at Zizi and chuckled, teasing him, "You little rascal, you're happy today, aren't you? So many people are playing with you, do you remember who they are?"
The baby shook her little head and laughed, rubbing against Chen Wan and acting coquettishly. She liked having so many people playing with her.
"I know what they look like, but I can't remember their names. It's too difficult." Zizi defended herself while acting coquettishly.
"Okay, our Yangyang is the best, everyone likes our Yangyang." Chen Wan praised the baby so much that the baby became shy and snuggled into Chen Wan's arms.
Jiang Yanxin watched Chen Wan teasing the baby, chuckled and shook her head, "You two stop messing around and go to bed early. Wei Siyu and the others will be here tomorrow to discuss serious matters."
"Okay, I'll listen to you." Chen Wan put the little guy down and began to fall asleep.
