Wu Yehao nodded at Yao Ran, and then turned to Wu Yuze. "Go distribute the soymilk and meal boxes."
Although Wu Yuze didn't trust anyone besides his elder brother and the children, he knew they needed food to regain their stamina and energy.
"Come with me," he said to the children after a brief silence.
While Wu Yuze and the children were eating, Wu Yehao took his share and sat near Yao Ran.
Turning to look at him, Yao Ran raised her eyebrows slightly and asked, "Do you have something to tell me?"
Wu Yehao calmly met her gaze and nodded. "Eldest Young Lady, what happened between you and Yuze in the past? Why is he so wary of you? He seems to treat you and Brother Long as enemies."
Yao Ran pondered for a moment before replying, "As I told you before, we met at Shan Wu Resort before the acid rain. At that time, we didn't know that your younger brother and the children were living in one of the villas."
"When we were checking the villas, we accidentally entered theirs. Your younger brother might think we are enemies because we entered his villa without permission. After that, when I visited their villa to deliver supplies for the children, I found that most of them had been kidnapped."
"Only Xiao Baozi was left, buried under the ruins, barely clinging to his last breath. When we returned to the air raid shelter after the acid rain ended, I brought him along, and he has stayed with us ever since."
After listening to Yao Ran's explanation, Wu Yehao thought, 'It seems they didn't have any bad blood between them. So why is Yuze so hostile toward the Eldest Young Lady?'
While Wu Yehao was deep in thought, Wu Yuze and the children finished their meal.
Seeing this, Yao Ran said, "Let's pack up and leave this place."
"Yes, Eldest Young Lady." The others obeyed her order, packing up and erasing their traces.
Meanwhile, Yao Yuechuan finally opened his eyes. One of his subordinates, noticing this, was ecstatic.
"Captain! You're finally awake!"
Hearing this, the others hurriedly gathered around Yao Yuechuan.
As he took in the familiar faces filled with worry and relief, Yao Yuechuan groaned and asked in a hoarse voice, "What happened to me?"
One of his subordinates helped him sit up and replied, "Captain, you locked eyes with the big head deformed monster and fell into a coma. Do you remember that?"
Yao Yuechuan frowned, trying to recall his last memory. Rubbing his aching forehead, he asked, "What happened after I fell into the illusion?"
Another man answered, "Captain Wu ordered us to bring you back while they fought the big head deformed monster and the deformed monsters."
After hearing this, Yao Yuechuan looked around and saw Yao Ran, Long Yu, and Wu Yehao nearby.
Noticing that there were no deformed monsters in sight, he said, "Looks like you guys managed to clear out the area."
"Yes. We are currently on our way to the secret laboratory."
While they were talking, Wu Yehao and the others finished packing. He walked up to Yao Yuechuan and asked, "Yuechuan, how are you feeling?"
