There were bottles and cans placed around the kitchen, and the fridge was stuffed with different ingredients. From the packaging, most of them came from Xinglong Food Processing. Ayesha recognized this brand. It was a food processing plant fully controlled by Celestial Trade, with New Ocean Agricultural as its direct upstream. Most of the processed food was shipped to Coconut Island as military supplies.

?This is??

Ayesha picked up a jar she had never seen before, then shook it curiously.

The jar contained crystal clear waxy yellow crystals in the jar that looked a lot like honey and a bit like jelly.

?Ah, that is the crab roe sauce from mud crabs, shipped from North America.?

North America?

It should be the North America of this world.

Ayesha nodded as she seemed to have understood, unscrewed the jar curiously, and smelled it

It smelled so good!

She closed the lid, then put the jar on the shelf.

?By the way, you are Yao Yao??

?Mhmm, are you Ayesha??

?Mhmm…also, do you want to make curry today??

?Let?s eat hot pot, it?s more fun.?

?Then, then I will cut the meat.?

Yao Yao hurriedly walked to the fridge and the little hand that pulled on the door shook because of nervousness. Ayesha skillfully picked up a kitchen knife and sliced the washed carrots into thin slices. For a while, no one spoke aside except for the rhythmic ?dong dong dong? sound of cut vegetables.

The conversation seemed to be interrupted, and the atmosphere was a little confusing inside.

At this time, the kitchen door was pushed open, and Lin Lin slid into the kitchen.

?Lin Lin? Why are you here?? Yao Yao?s eyes opened wide and looked at Lin Lin unexpectedly, because Lin Lin seldom came into the kitchen when she just started cooking, and she often came after she almost finished cooking.

?The aura in the living room is too tense!?

?Can digitalized humans also feel the aura?? Halfway through her sentence in a confused tone, Yao Yao recalled the feeling of being in the living room, then she added in a quiet voice. ?Well… although I felt the same way too.?

One corner of Ayesha?s lips was curled up as she put the sliced carrot into a plastic bowl and tore open a packaging bag. She looked out the window at damaged high-rise buildings and asked casually, ?This is Wanghai??

?That?s right…Although it is the Wanghai from a century later.? Yao Yao looked out the window as her voice was filled with emotion.

Like Lin Lin, she came from the era before the war. She had witnessed the prosperity of the city and the greatness of Pan-Asia Cooperation.

?Do you like him??

?Eh?? Yao Yao looked at Ayesha blankly, as she wondered why she suddenly asked this question.

Ayesha blinked while she looked at her sincerely.

?Of course…? Yao Yao lowered her head nervously, then finally plucked up the courage and smiled weakly, ?No, to be precise… it?s love.?

She had never been a courageous girl, otherwise, she would not have hesitated until now.

?Mhmm, I see.?

That?s it?

A small question mark appeared over Yao Yao?s head. She tilted her head and looked at Ayesha, somewhat confused.

Later, the three didn?t discuss this topic again.

…

?Cheers!?

?Cheers~!?

The sound of glass clinking announced the beginning of the lunch.

Pink bubbles rolled on the flaming oil surface, and as the ingredients were poured in, the delicious smell of meat already permeated on the table. In addition to the big hot pot in the middle of the table, Yao Yao and Ayesha also cooked some of their best dishes. Lin Lin, who was salivating, was waiting for the perfect moment to eat.

Natasha took out the vodka that Jiang Chen treasured, and the sparks of confrontation already appeared in Sun Jiao?s eyes.

Only Xia Shiyu and Sun Xiaorou still ate elegantly.

As for Jiang Chen, his attention was not focused on the food from the very start. He had been quietly observing the expressions of Xia Shiyu and Sun Jiao. Originally, he thought that these two were the most troublesome to deal with, because their personalities were complete opposites, and there was even a big contrast in values.

However, to his surprise, the feeling they gave him… turned out to be pretty good?

The family finished their lunch in a lively atmosphere.

Just when Jiang Chen coughed to signal the start of the ?family meeting,? Xia Shiyu and Sun Jiao looked at each other and stood up together.

?We have something to discuss. Please go and stay outside for a bit,? Sun Jiao said with a smirk.

?Mhmm, yes.? Xia Shiyu pushed up her glasses and agreed.

?Huh? Then… can I go there?? Jiang Chen asked in a quiet voice.

?No,? Sun Jiao glared at Jiang Chen as she started to blush, and said firmly, ?Who knows if you will come back secretly.?

?I agree with my sister. As the only male member of the family, it is better for you to avoid the meeting reserved for girls,? Xiaorou also stood up and smiled, ?So, brother-in-law, please come back later.?

Jiang Chen turned his attention to Ayesha for help. Unexpectedly, even Ayesha ?betrayed? him, moved her gaze away subtly, and pretended not to see him.

The fact he was excluded from the family meeting made Jiang Chen feel hurt.

He reluctantly walked out of the mansion. Since he had had nothing to do, he strolled towards the General?s Mansion.

On the way to the General?s Mansion, he happened to bump into Han Junhua who was walking in that direction, so he said hello.

?Hey.?

Han Junhua looked back at Jiang Chen unexpectedly.

?Your expression tells me that you seem to be surprised to meet me here,? Jiang Chen said helplessly.

Okay, Jiang Chen had to admit that he has not been to General?s Mansion for a while…

But you can?t look at me this way, right?

?Well, it is indeed a bit unexpected,? Han Junhua nodded expressionlessly, and handed the document in her hands to Jiang Chen, ?It just so happens that you are here. This document was originally intended to be handed over to Ms. Sun. Now it is the same delivering it to you.?

After Jiang Chen took the document, he briefly flipped through the pages and he looked intrigued.

?This is…?

?The United African Tribes sent us an envoy and brought gifts. They hope to develop diplomatic relations with us… Our intelligence is quite limited. We only know that they may be the only continent, apart from Arctic and Antarctica, that was spared from the nuclear war.?

?Why??

?Because he brought a box of corn.?

?…?

Jiang Chen returned to the document to Han Junhua, coughed lightly, then said.

?Anyway, put this document on my desk first, and then let the envoy wait for me at Sixth Street. I have… a more important issue to solve.?

?Is there anything more important than this?? Han Junhua asked.

?Mhmm,? Jiang Chen sighed, ?and it?s much more difficult.?
