Qu Qingdai and her group successfully completed their mission, each carrying a bag full of vegetables as they leisurely walked down the mountain. Along the way, they also enthusiastically picked some bright and juicy wild fruits, their laughter and joy echoing through the mountains.

When they finally arrived at the campsite, they were surprised to find that the three boys were already waiting there.

"Wow, have you been waiting for a long time? It seems that we have successfully obtained the ingredients!" Qin Yunie couldn't suppress the joy in her heart. She ran over with a bright smile on her face.

"We..." Tan Changqing hesitated to speak, his eyes evasive. Then he looked at Bai Ren and Chao Yan. The three of them looked at each other, but none of them could utter a complete sentence.

"What's wrong?" Qu Qingdai noticed something strange, walked towards them with light steps, and asked with concern.

"Alas... We didn't get the ingredients, and the time is up, so we have to come back." Chao Yan sighed helplessly, with a bitter expression on her face, which seemed to tell of their loss and frustration.

"Ah, what's going on!" Qin Yunie widened her eyes in surprise, her mouth opened into an "O" shape. She looked at the three boys in disbelief, her heart full of doubts and confusion.

"When we were halfway up the mountain, we suddenly encountered a group of guards. At that critical moment, after discussion, we decided to let Bai Ren be responsible for leading away the guards, while Chao Yan and I continued to move forward on the mountain." Tan Changqing said slowly while recalling the scene at that time.

"Who could have imagined that when we finally reached the mountain, we would find eight guards guarding the cave? Faced with such a powerful defense, Chao Yan and I had to adjust our plans. We decided to divide the work, I would distract the guards, and Chao Yan would get the meat."

"However, I alone could not withstand the siege of eight guards and was soon captured by them. My actions were forced to suspend for ten minutes, which also led to Chao Yan being discovered when she was taking meat. When I finally broke free from the restraints and was able to move freely, I found that it was too late and our action ended in failure." Tan Changqing sighed helplessly.

"Alas... that's what's going on. There are just too many of them. It's really too hard to deal with them!" Chao Yan waved his hands helplessly, a look of frustration on his face. His words seemed to convey their helplessness and frustration in the face of difficulties.

"You have worked really hard! But it doesn't matter. Although we didn't get any meat, we got vegetables and picked some delicious wild fruits! It's still early now, we can go to the beach to see if there are any shellfish. If there are, we can pick some to eat, which is also very good." Qu Qingdai smiled and comforted everyone gently.

"Yes, yes, it's okay! At least we are half successful today, hehe!" Qin Yunie's face was filled with an optimistic smile, and her bright eyes sparkled with positivity.

"Yes, that's right!" Lin Zhirou also smiled and nodded in agreement.

"Thank you, it's really amazing that you were able to successfully get the vegetables!" Tan Changqing praised sincerely, his eyes full of gratitude.

"Actually, it wasn't easy for us either. We also encountered guards halfway up the mountain. But we chose to skip the main road and take a detour. So when we reached the top of the mountain, two of us went out to lure away the guards, and in the end we narrowly won!" Qu Qingdai recounted their experience in detail.

"Oh, it's really not easy for you! It seems that we have to adopt the same strategy as you tomorrow. We can't waste time halfway up the mountain." Chao Yan frowned and said while thinking seriously.

"And you have two more people on the top of the mountain than us. If two of you go to lure away the guards, it means that one of you has to deal with four people. This seems very difficult." Qin Yunie also added, gesturing with her hands as she spoke, her face full of worry.

"Indeed, our number is still too small." Bai Ren nodded and said helplessly.

"Let's discuss countermeasures together later. Now let's go to the beach to see if there is anything to eat." Tan Changqing interrupted their conversation and suggested.

"Yes, it's important to take care of dinner first. Three of you go to the beach to find seafood, and the remaining three will prepare dinner here." Bai Ren said.

"Then I'll go!" Lin Zhirou volunteered, her eyes full of determination.

"I'll go too. I can't cook!" Chao Yan raised her hand high, with an eager expression on her face.

"I can't cook either, I'll go!" Bai Ren also said quickly, fearing that he would be left behind.

"Okay, let's decide it this way." Tan Changqing made the decision.

The afterglow of the setting sun shone on the beach, and the sparkling sea surface was shimmering with golden light. Bai Ren, Chao Yan, and Lin Zhirou came to the beach together, ready to find some seafood to enrich their dinner.

They strolled along the coastline, with soft sand under their feet and the waves gently lapping against the shore, making a pleasant sound.

Asagao looked around excitedly, her eyes gleaming with anticipation.

"Wow, this place is so beautiful! If I weren't here looking for dinner, I would definitely enjoy it!" Chao Yan exclaimed, "But for now, I still hope we can find a lot of delicious seafood."

"Yeah, we'll definitely find it." Bai Ren responded, his eyes focused on searching the beach.

Lin Zhirou quietly admired the sea view, the sea breeze gently blowing her hair, making her look particularly gentle.

"Look, something seems to be moving over there!" Chaoyan suddenly shouted, pointing into the distance.

The three of them ran over quickly and saw a big crab waving its claws and running rampant on the beach.

"Haha, it's a crab!" Chao Yan bent down excitedly and tried to catch it.

The crab seemed to sense danger and quickly burrowed into a hole. Chaoyan reluctantly dug with her hands, but couldn't reach it.

"Let me try." Bai Ren said, and found a branch. He carefully reached into the hole and tried to drive the crab out.

After some effort, the crab was finally driven out, and Chaoyan caught it with his quick eyes and hands.

"Great, we got a catch!" Chaoyan held the crab and was as happy as a child.

They continued along the beach, occasionally finding shellfish and small fish, and cheered excitedly with each new seafood they found.

"Look, there are so many shells there!" Lin Zhirou said in surprise, pointing to a beach.

When the three of them got closer, they saw that the beach was densely covered with shells of various colors and shapes.

"Wow, so beautiful!" Chao Yan exclaimed, "These shells can be used as decorations!"

They bent down and began to pick out the shells they liked. Bai Ren picked up a large shell, put it to his ear and listened, as if he were listening to the sound of the sea.

"Oh, there's a big fish over there!" Chao Yan suddenly shouted.

They looked in the direction Chaoyan pointed and saw a slightly larger fish swimming in the shallows. Bairen quietly approached, ready to catch it.

The fish seemed to sense danger and swam away quickly. Bai Ren chased after it unwillingly, but accidentally fell into the water.

"Hahaha..." Chaoyan and Lin Zhirou couldn't help laughing when they saw Bai Ren's embarrassed look.

Bai Ren climbed out of the water, wiped the water off his face, and started laughing too.

"It's okay, let's keep looking!" Bai Ren said.

"Oh, it's getting late, we should go back!" Lin Zhirou said after looking at her watch.

"Well, it's time to go back. Tonight has been sumptuous enough! Look, there are plump crabs, fresh fish, some scallops, plus the fruits and vegetables prepared by Qingdai and the others. It's simply perfect!" Chao Yan said with satisfaction.

"Well, that's indeed the case. We've gained a lot today!" Lin Zhirou smiled and nodded in agreement.

"Okay, it's time to go back." Bai Ren also agreed, with a happy expression on his face.

With their bountiful catch, the three of them set off on their journey home. In their hands were bags filled with seafood: crabs waving their claws, fish struggling in the bags, and scallops lying quietly within. Smiles graced their faces, the sea breeze caressing them gently, and the sunset stretched their silhouettes far and wide.

On an open lawn, Qu Qingdai, Qin Yunie, and Tan Changqing were busy setting up a simple cooking area. Working together, they arranged some stones into a circle and placed some branches in the middle, creating a simple stove.

As Qu Qingdai sorted the vegetables she had obtained from the guardians, she said, "These vegetables look quite fresh. We must make good use of them and make a delicious meal."

Qin Yunie smiled and replied, "Of course. Chef Qingdai will definitely be able to make amazing food if he cooks it himself."

Tan Changqing was selecting cooking utensils on the side. He picked up a frying pan and said, "The production team was kind enough to prepare some cooking utensils for us. This should be useful. We can fry some vegetable pancakes for tomorrow's breakfast!"

"Oh, yes, there's also breakfast tomorrow! I almost forgot, we still have some compressed biscuits, which can also be eaten as breakfast tomorrow!" Qin Yunie said, slapping his head.

"Then let's prepare together!" Qu Qingdai sorted and arranged the vegetables and began to wash them. As she washed the vegetables, she said, "Yunie, go get the water pitcher over there. We need water."

Qin Yunie immediately ran to get the water pitcher, and when she came back, she didn't forget to tease him, "Qingdai, don't ruin the vegetables, otherwise we won't have anything to eat."

"You just know how to talk nonsense. Hurry up and help me cut the vegetables." Qu Qingdai rolled her eyes at her.

Qin Yunie picked up the knife and began to chop the vegetables carefully. As she cut, she said, "Qingdai, Changqing, how about we make some vegetable soup?"

Tan Changqing nodded in agreement and said, "Sure, if you add some mushrooms, it should taste great."

Qu Qingdai took over the conversation: "Then we can also make stir-fried seasonal vegetables and use all these vegetables."

They discussed the recipe while busy preparing the ingredients. After a while, the fire in the stove was lit, and Qu Qingdai poured some oil into the pot and started to stir-fry.

"Wow, it smells so good!" Qin Yunie came over and smelled it, "Qingdai, your cooking skills are really good."

Qu Qingdai smiled and said, "Stop flattering me and bring the plate over there."

Qin Yunie quickly handed over the plate and watched Qu Qingdai skillfully stir-fry the vegetables with admiration in her eyes.

Tan Changqing was adding water to the pot, preparing to make soup. As he stirred, he asked, "Do you think we'll miss our time here when we return?"

Qin Yunie thought about it and said, "Of course, these memories are very precious."

Qu Qingdai also said: "Yes, although we sometimes encounter some difficulties, it is also very happy that we are together and help each other."

"And we can cook together, it feels really great." Tan Changqing said with emotion.

The food was gradually ready, and they placed it on the makeshift dining table. Qu Qingdai looked at the fruits of her labor and said with satisfaction, "Alright, everyone, come and try it."

Qin Yunie couldn't wait to pick up the chopsticks, picked up a piece of food and put it in his mouth, then said exaggeratedly: "Wow, it's delicious! Qingdai, you are such a talented chef!"

Qu Qingdai laughed at him and said, "You only know how to exaggerate. Just eat yours."

Tan Changqing also tasted the soup and said, "It tastes really good. Thank you all for your hard work."

"I don't know what kind of seafood they found. There's no meat at all. This won't do!" Qin Yunie said.

Just then, there was a noise coming from a distance. Lin Zhirou, Bai Ren and Chao Yan came back excitedly, their hands full of seafood.

Lin Zhirou shouted excitedly: "Look what we brought back!"

Qu Qingdai, Qin Yunie and Tan Changqing all stopped what they were doing and went to greet him in surprise.

Qin Yunie looked at the pile of seafood, her eyes lit up: "Wow, so much seafood! That's amazing!"

Bai Ren smiled and said, "We worked so hard to get this!"

Chao Yan also echoed: "Yes, everyone can enjoy a seafood feast!"

Qu Qingdai looked at them and said happily, "You guys are amazing! Hurry and put the seafood over here so we can prepare it together."

Everyone hurriedly put down the seafood and started discussing how to cook these delicacies.

Lin Zhirou suggested: "We can make a seafood soup and grill some seafood skewers!"

Qin Yunie immediately nodded in agreement: "This is a good idea!"

Tan Changqing also said: "Then let's get started!"

Qu Qingdai smiled and said, "Then we must turn all these seafood into delicious dishes!"

Qin Yunie picked up a crab and joked, "This crab looks so majestic. I'll turn it into a delicious dish later!" Everyone laughed at his words.

As Tan Changqing skillfully put the seafood into the pot, he said, "If everyone works together, this meal will definitely be delicious."

Asagao also smiled and said, "Yes, everyone's efforts have paid off. It must be delicious!"

As they cooked the seafood, they continued to chat happily, with laughter and conversation echoing in the air.

The audience in the live broadcast room felt full of joy and warmth when watching this scene...

This scene is really great. The last episode is all about teamwork. So great!

[Without Jiang, the air feels fresher, and Lin Zhirou is less annoying!]

What are we going to do about the food fight tomorrow? There are so few of us! I'm so nervous for them!

[I think it's better to just eat the seafood feast and give up the vegetables and meat! Hahahaha...]

[I'm the only one who thinks their food looks delicious. I'm craving it...]
