Just as everyone was chatting in the yard, there were several knocks on the door.
Chen Wan went to open the door first, and Qin Ke followed her.
Chen Wan opened the door and saw that it was Han Qi, whom they had met on the road before.
Han Qi was stunned for a moment when he saw that it was not Shen Mingyan who opened the door. He smiled at Chen Wan and said, "I was afraid that you had not eaten yet after rushing here from outside, so I went home and asked Auntie to steam some buns for me, as well as some wild vegetables from our Heshang Village. It's not a good meal, so you just have to make do with it."
Chen Wan still had that expressionless look on his face and refused: "No, we already had dinner before we came here. It's not easy to get some food in the apocalypse. You should take it back."
As Chen Wan spoke, his eyes passed Han Qi and went to look at Uncle Zhou and the fat man behind Han Qi. Uncle Zhou was looking into the yard, but his view was blocked by Qin Ke who was beside Chen Wan. Meeting Qin Ke's cold gaze, Uncle Zhou didn't dare to look inside any longer.
Han Qi almost lost the smile on his face. This trick worked every time they used it. No one who just came from outside could resist the steaming hot food. This was the first time he was rejected so directly.
But Han Qi quickly made adjustments, smiled and said, "You don't have to be polite, it's just a little homely food, you should accept it, Mingyan, your friend is too polite, you can take it back."
Before Chen Wan could say anything, Qin Ke stared coldly at Han Qi, "We said we don't need it, so what? Do we have to take it?"
Han Qi didn't expect the two alphas to not give him any face at all, and was afraid that he would mess things up before they were done, so he could only suppress his anger and continue to speak: "This is also a token of our appreciation."
"But I also said that we don't need it. Does Village Chief Han have any other ulterior motives? I remember there was a very good saying from the ancients: Those who show kindness without any reason are either treacherous or thieves. Which one are you?" Chen Wan raised a smile and looked at Han Qi coldly.
Just one glance made Han Qi take a step back. The fat man was still not convinced and shouted behind Han Qi: "What do you mean? We sent the food here with good intentions, and you still doubt us. I am really convinced."
Han Qi pushed the fat man behind him and smiled again: "It's okay. It's the end of the world. It's better for everyone to be cautious. Since you have eaten, we will take it back. It's hard for everyone. It's not easy to eat."
Chen Wan nodded.
No more words.
Han Qi and four other people were carrying things and walking back. When he turned around, he could no longer control the expression on his face and almost threw the steamed bun in his hand. Since he became the village chief, no one had ever gone against him like this. These people brought by Shen Mingyan were really interesting, but he was not afraid. As long as they stayed, he would have plenty of time to let them relax their vigilance.
After they walked away, some fat guys started to complain: "Fuck, Brother Qi, Shen Mingyan and her group are so shameless. There is only one man in there, and there are only two alphas. If it doesn't work, we can use force."
"It's better not to. There are not many people in our village. We shouldn't fight hard unless it is necessary. Besides, Shen Mingyan and her friends' RV is pretty good. Once we capture everyone, the RV will be ours." Han Qi took a few deep breaths and handed the large bowl of steamed buns in his hand to Uncle Zhou.
