It's sweet!
Xiao Le's eyes narrowed with joy.
Seeing this, Zhao Ping'an looked at Jiang Bai with suspicion and uncertainty. Shouldn't this woman be trying to torture them? Why would she give Xiao Le candy?
Jiang Bai pretended not to see it and instructed Zhao Ping'an, "I'll wash the pot first, and you can start the fire later."
Actually, her original intention was to let Zhao Ping'an rest, since he had just been injured and moving around could easily cause an accident. However, he was too wary and wouldn't dare to eat unless he saw how the food was cooked.
After assigning tasks, Jiang Bai went straight to the yard to fetch water.
With limited time and no time for a thorough cleaning, Jiang Bai simply washed the pot and signaled Zhao Ping'an to start a fire. While the pot was still hot, he washed the ingredients that he had taken out of his spatial storage beforehand.

Her eyes were filled with longing, but she didn't dare to ask for more. She cautiously extended one finger, glancing at Jiang Bai's expression as she spoke, ready to change her mind immediately if Jiang Bai frowned.
Jiang Bai felt a pang of heartache seeing her like this. He patted her head and said, "Silly girl, how can you be full from just one piece? When the meat is ready, you can eat a big bowl, okay?"
Upon hearing this, Xiao Le immediately reached out and hugged Jiang Bai, nuzzling her neck with her little head: "Okay, Mommy is okay."
Zhao Ping'an sat under the stove, expressionless as he stuffed firewood into the firebox, coldly thinking to himself: No matter what this woman wants to do, he will protect Xiao Le.
