The group showed no pleasure at General Zhang's praise. But not wanting to make things awkward, they put on polite smiles and said, "Thank you. We're just glad you enjoyed it."
Feng He placed one of the roast chickens in front of them, setting a bowl of sauce beside it. The remaining six chickens were for his group; they each took one.
Each holding a roast chicken, they smiled at the officers and said, "Please, enjoy your meal."
With that, they turned with their chickens and immediately walked over to sit on some nearby rocks.
Captain Li watched them go, then glanced back at the group seated at the table.
Sensing he wouldn't get a single bite of the dishes on the table, Captain Li walked straight toward Lin Jingjing without hesitation.
He plopped down beside Lin Jingjing, his mouth watering as he watched them, each with a large chicken in hand.
"Lin Jingjing, how about you spare a drumstick for me?" Captain Li said, his face stern, but his tone was much softer than usual.
