Last night's incident did not bother Xiao Jun at all. In fact, he even let An Qingyu stay, which surprised everyone.
The one who felt most uneasy was Little loli.
So, today when Xiao Jun returned, Little loli took the initiative to come over and massage his shoulders, pushing the twin sisters aside.
"Never mind, it's not necessary. Let Jing Ru handle it."
Xiao Jun's persuasion was of no use.
"I can do it, my massage won't be worse than hers."
Little loli insisted and started massaging Xiao Jun's shoulders.
"It's not that your skills are lacking, I'm just worried you'll have to stand on tiptoes and get tired massaging my shoulders."
"..."
Little loli wanted to leave right away. People always say not to point out others' shortcomings, but Xiao Jun seemed to do just that, which was infuriating.
"Brother Jun, I had a talk with Teacher An last night. She has been averse to men because of the deep impression left by her previous team leader."
Xiao Jun had his eyes closed, pretending to nap. It was unclear whether he had heard her or not.
"Really, she has realized her mistake and even told me several ways to deal with zombies."
"She said we can use fire attacks, and we can also..."
Before Little loli could finish, Xiao Jun waved his hand to interrupt her.
At the same time, An Qingyu also came out of the room.
Xiao Jun pretended not to notice her and continued speaking.
"What other good methods could she possibly come up with? I was just asking casually yesterday. Whether she can figure them out or not doesn't make much difference to the bigger picture."
"The fire attack method was already being prepared by Future City yesterday. Didn't you notice it during your scouting and airdrops today?"
"Besides fire attacks, combining the ancient city defense method of rolling rocks can also be very effective."
"As for the fifth-level zombies, without the cover of the zombie horde, their threat is much smaller and negligible."
Not only Little loli, but the others also stared wide-eyed, not expecting Brother Jun to be so capable in both strength and strategy.
Wan Qianya and Li Jingyin also recalled the previous time when Xiao Jun suggested using fire to eliminate the zombies on the bridge.
Now, everyone looked down on An Qingyu even more. If it weren't for Little loli's face, Jiang Yue would have been prepared to scold her yesterday.
[How could this be? He came up with similar ideas in such a short time. Could he really have thought of so many methods?]
[Last night, I was so arrogant and cold towards him, but in the end, he still let me stay on the second floor.]
[According to Yunyun, aside from Jiang Yue and Wan Qianya, he hasn't touched the other girls. It seems I have misjudged him.]
An Qingyu was shocked inwardly, but seeing Xiao Jun's disdainful expression, her innate arrogance resurfaced.
[So what if he thought of these methods? Last night, I also came up with another tactic. If we dig a trap along the zombies' advancing route and line the sides with steel blades, the zombies that fall in will be killed by the blades.]
[Not only can this method kill a large number of lower-level zombies, but it can also reveal the locations of higher-level zombies since only those above the third level have vision.]
Now it was Xiao Jun's turn to be astonished. Well done! She even took advantage of the zombies' lack of vision to come up with a strategy that can not only kill enemies but also identify higher-level zombies. This tactic is brilliant!
"Oh, by the way, Yunyun's massage was so comfortable that it made me think of another method."
Seeing everyone's gaze on him, Xiao Jun repeated An Qingyu's thoughts word for word.
"Brilliant! Taking advantage of the lower-level zombies' inability to see, creating terrain traps. Brother Jun, you're truly brilliant."
Even the usually composed Jiang Yue became excited, not to mention the other girls.
"Let's keep this matter to ourselves and not inform the other teams."
Xiao Jun reminded them.
One should always keep some tricks up one's sleeve.
"Don't worry, I'll go find the Gale Gang leader and have him assign some trustworthy people to work on this. They won't be allowed to leave until the zombies arrive, ensuring absolute secrecy."
With Jiang Yue personally overseeing it, Xiao Jun was naturally at ease.
While they were chatting cheerfully on one side, the lone An Qingyu felt rather awkward on the other.
She had just thought of this method not long ago, yet he also came up with it so quickly.
The issue of zombies' lack of vision is often overlooked, completely forgetting that it could be used to distinguish their levels.
Now, even Little loli didn't know how to speak up for her.
She had planned to first win over Brother Jun, then tell him the methods An Qingyu had mentioned the previous night, making up for her mistakes.
However, not only had Brother Jun already arranged everything An Qingyu had thought of, but he had even come up with an even more brilliant strategy. How could she say anything now?
Should she ask An Qingyu to apologize?
That seemed unlikely too.
"Oh, Teacher An is here too. Let's have a meal together then."
Xiao Jun acted as if he had just noticed An Qingyu's presence, appearing quite surprised.
He signaled to Jiang Yue with his eyes, and she went to prepare lunch.
After having stir-fried dishes yesterday, anything else would be tasteless now. If they could have some meat, that would be even better.
Soon, the fragrance of the dishes wafted over, causing everyone to swallow involuntarily and rub their stomachs.
"Let's start with a hot pot first, then have some rice later."
Xiao Jun's suggestion was immediately agreed upon by everyone.
Jing Ru promptly brought out the bowls and chopsticks. She was now in charge of managing the eating utensils, as well as mops and brooms, which were all stored with her.
After all, she was responsible for the cleanliness of the second floor.
Everyone sat down, ready to eat, while the hot pot on the alcohol stove was emitting an enticing aroma. Only one person stood awkwardly, unable to decide whether to sit or leave.
"Teacher An, come and sit down."
Only Little loli still cared about her feelings, as she had brought her here and had been her teacher and friend before the apocalypse.
"Sit down and eat with us. Don't worry, even if you're just a vase like Jing Ru, I can still afford to feed a few."
One must kill with a sharp knife and decisive blow.
An Qingyu, who had just been pulled down by Little loli, immediately stood up to leave but was pressed down firmly by her again.
On one side, Little loli hugged An Qingyu, while on the other, she kept pleading with Xiao Jun.
That was enough. Xiao Jun might still need her in the future.
Moreover, she was invited here by Little loli. During this period, Little loli had also made contributions to the team. Even if she was a naive sweetheart, Xiao Jun didn't mind feeding another mouth, as she wouldn't eat much.
The hot pot was already emitting a rich aroma. The others could no longer wait to start eating, and Xiao Jun stopped paying attention to the situation over there.
When eating with this pack of she-wolves, if you're not quick, all that will be left is the hot pot broth. During the scramble for food, no one cared that Xiao Jun was the team leader.

s the Eldest Princess, renowned for her cold and aloof detachment, became the most docile of lambs, obeying his every command without question.

Gu Chenghan froze abruptly. She... hadn't been hypnotized?! ... [The Eldest Princess's Diary] [When my soul was extracted, becoming the sole spectator outside my own shell] [At first, there was overwhelming fury, until I saw] [How he used my sword to effortlessly shatter my inescapable doom] [How he wielded my authority to eradicate fatal conspiracies I had never even detected] [Like a deity, he rescued me from the deep mire I was trapped in] [If not for those annoying vixens, he and I would be a match made in heaven] [I think I am ill, gravely ill] [My deity should belong to me alone] ...

+【Epic Battles!】 "Your Highness, they say Linxi Temple is miraculous. Won’t you make a wish?" "A wish? It should be making wishes to me." "That may be so, but since you’re already here..." "..." "Fine. Then grant this princess a consort to play with." "He must be obedient, devoted, and utterly infatuated with my body—so much so that he’d kneel and kiss my feet." "Your Highness, that’s not a consort. That’s a dog." "Then add clever, witty, heroic, ambitious yet pragmatic..." "Hmm, that’s enough for now. I’ll add more later." After tossing out these words half in jest, Princess Anle departed the temple—only to catch a fleeting glimpse of the Bodhisattva statue smiling at her. Meanwhile, Yang An, fresh out of university, was having a very bad day. Good news: He’d transmigrated into another world with a cheat granting tenfold combat power. Bad news: He’d immediately fallen into the clutches of a certain villainess. Good news: Said villainess possessed peerless beauty and royal status. Bad news: She was absolutely monstrous!!! In the frozen wilderness, Yang An knelt beneath Qin Guo’er’s feet, drenched in sweat despite the cold. Desperately clutching her porcelain-perfect foot—the very one poised to crush his throat—he could only think: How do I survive this?! Need answers NOW!
