Xiong Yong'an transformed the moment he saw Xu Qian. He chuckled, completely shedding the commanding air he had moments before.
"Sister Qian, you can just call me Yong'an. Weren't we supposed to have a bonfire party? This table is for the food.
By the way, Sister Qian, do you have any extra food to sponsor? The guys haven't eaten meat in ages."
Sister Qian was now the boss's woman, she would definitely give them some meat!
Xu Qian nodded dismissively. "I'll bring some snacks, roast chicken, and roast duck later to liven things up for you."
Xiong Yong'an was so happy he could almost jump.
"Thank you, Sister Qian. You go sit over there first. We'll call you when we set up the food."
Xu Qian shook her head helplessly and returned to the tent.
Xiang Jintian had been waiting for her at the entrance. He had already changed out of his camouflage uniform.
He stood tall in his green military uniform.
Seeing her return from outside, he frowned.
"Xianxian, where did you go?"
Xu Qian stepped forward and wrapped her arm around his. "Just checking on the bonfire party preparations."
Xiang Jintian looked down at her, his eyes soft.
"You'll know later."
Xu Qian leaned her head on his arm and asked softly, "Didn't you say we were in a hurry to go back? Why are we stopping for a day?"
"We've been driving for two days straight, everyone is tired. Even if we're in a hurry, we need to relax a little."
"Oh~ Our Commander Xiang is so considerate of his people~"
Xiang Jintian patted her head. "Oh? You're teasing me now?"
Xu Qian's lips curved into a slight smile. "I wouldn't dare tease Commander Xiang."
"Sister Qian! Sister Qian! The roast duck is ready!"
Xu Qian looked up at the sound, seeing Xiong Yong'an waving frantically towards them.
"Coming!"
Xu Qian responded loudly, letting go of his arm and walking towards Xiong Yong'an.
Xiang Jintian looked bewildered and quickly grabbed her. "Roast duck?"
"Just providing some ingredients for your bonfire party."
Xiang Jintian's brows softened slightly, his deep, dark eyes fixed on her.
"Xianxian, thank you."
That handsome face paired with "thank you" was simply irresistible!
Xu Qian felt goosebumps all over. Why was she so infatuated with this old man!
She bit her lip slightly, stood on tiptoe, and kissed his cheek, whispering.
"I do" and then ran off.
Xiang Jintian froze, a rare flush of red appearing on his tanned face.
Xu Qian ran all the way to Xiong Yong'an, panting.
It took a while for the heat on her face to subside.
There wasn't much on the long table, mostly juices, cola, various sodas, and individually packaged bread and biscuits.
Xu Qian knew there wasn't much, but she hadn't expected it to be so meager!
She sighed and asked, "This is how we're having the bonfire party?"
Xiong Yong'an scratched his head, looking a bit embarrassed.
"Yeah, this is all we have. We need to save the rest for the road. We'll get resupplied when we get back to City A. But the guys don't mind, we just want to have fun."
Xu Qian raised an eyebrow. Even if it was for fun, it wouldn't work without food!
She closed her eyes and searched her spatial storage for snacks.
Soon, with a thought from Xu Qian, several boxes of snacks appeared on the long table: potato chips, peanuts, nuts, sunflower seeds, dried meat, and even ten steaming roast chickens.
Xiong Yong'an stared at the overflowing table, dumbfounded. He knew Xu Qian had a lot of things.
But he didn't expect this much!
"Sis... Sis... Sister Qian, you don't need to bring so much, we can't finish it."
Xu Qian waved her hand dismissively. "It's fine, we can save it for later if we can't finish it."
Xiang Jintian, who had followed her, saw this. His brows furrowed slightly, and he said softly:
"Xianxian, come with me for a moment."
