It had to be said, the Battlefield Medical Assistance System could be truly miraculous sometimes. Jiang Yan Hai had only just finished preparing the food when footsteps came from upstairs.
Then the sleepy little muddlehead came down the stairs, her hair a mess and her eyes barely open. Jiang Yan Hai hurried over, worried that she might fall down the stairs in her current state.
By the time he reached the foot of the stairs, Li Ruo Bai had already come down. Freshly awake, her eyes still closed, she heard Jiang Yan Hai approach and immediately slipped her arms beneath his armpits, wrapped them around him, and buried her head in his chest.
Jiang Yan Hai did not know whether to laugh or cry. His hands were still oily from cooking, so he did not dare hug her. He could only raise both hands and say, "All right, little piggy. Can't you smell the food?"

"All right, I made abalone over rice for you. You must be hungry. You probably didn't even eat breakfast. Go wash your face." Jiang Yan Hai smiled.

Jiang Yan Hai did not know whether to laugh or cry, but he simply bent down and scooped her up in his arms. His hands, however, remained clenched into fists.
