Lu Tingyan’s lips curled slightly as he helped him up. "There’s no need for that."
Bi He looked at them with tears welling in his eyes. "If you can truly heal these retired heroes of my Bear Clan, then I, this old bear, swear to serve you both faithfully for the rest of my life!"
Bai Su smiled. "As long as you require, I’ll provide them with food on a regular basis until they’ve fully recovered."
Bi He thanked her again. "Wonderful, wonderful, that’s just fantastic! Name your price, we can accept anything!"
Bi Yue, who was still being forced to kneel nearby, immediately started yelling, "Father, our clan is already short on resources! Who knows what outrageous price she’ll demand?"
Bi He slapped her across the face. "Shut up! You fool! Did you really think I didn’t know what you’ve done to these retired Beastmen? Do you take me for dead?!"
Humiliated and enraged at being slapped in front of so many people, Bi Yue shrieked, "How could you hit me for this bunch of good-for-nothings? I was only thinking of the Bear Clan!"
Bai Su looked at Bi He. "Please, rest assured. These are heroes who defended our country. I have no intention of profiting from them. Lu Tingyan will provide the ingredients. You only need to send someone to my restaurant each day to pick up the food."
The raw ingredients weren’t expensive, and a man as wealthy as Lu Tingyan could certainly afford them.
’She wasn’t about to pass up such a great opportunity to build goodwill.’
Lu Tingyan, ever perceptive, nodded slightly. "Since I promised to solve this problem for the Bear Beastman clan, I will naturally see it through to the end."
Bi He was filled with both gratitude and shame.
He had opposed Lu Tingyan in meetings on numerous occasions, yet not only was the man not angry, he was genuinely offering to help.
He had assumed Lu Tingyan’s offer to help the disabled members of the Bear Clan was just an excuse to gather them all in one tribe, a ploy to use them as hostages to coerce him into submitting to the Wolf Clan.
Bi He couldn’t help but lower his head in shame. "Chief, I... I don’t know what to say. I, this old bear..."
Lu Tingyan said, "We must stand united against external threats. The peace of the Federation is paramount."
Bi He nodded firmly. "Yes! Rest assured, Chief. As long as you and Miss Bai can truly heal them and allow them to return to a normal life, the entire Bear Clan will henceforth be the Wolf Clan’s most loyal allies!"
A trace of resentment flashed in Bi Yue’s eyes, but ultimately, she said nothing.
With the matter settled, Bai Su, Lu Tingyan, and Bi He discussed the subsequent arrangements.
Since this was to be a long-term treatment plan, they naturally needed a proper system in place.
Bai Su was already short-staffed.
Therefore, Lu Tingyan decided to dispatch a team from the Bear Clan. They would work in shifts to help at Bai Su’s restaurant each day. Afterward, the next shift would carry the food back and distribute it to the members of the Disabled Tribe.
Bai Su also drew up a menu. Since the purpose was treatment rather than gourmet sales, there was no need for too much variety.
Every day after closing the restaurant, she would put the pre-prepared beef in the boiler to braise.
Given the efficiency of the System Mall’s boiler, half an hour of braising would be enough.
Then, the soldiers could take it directly back with them.
This way, it wouldn’t take up too much of her own time and energy, nor would it require assigning extra Beastmen to the task.
And with these Beastmen helping in her restaurant, they could also conveniently maintain security.
Once everything was settled, Bai Su and Lu Tingyan left the military headquarters.
She had gotten up early, but the meeting had still taken up several hours.
She probably wouldn’t get back to the restaurant until noon.
But that was fine.
After getting engaged yesterday, she had anticipated needing a day off, so she had already posted a video on her social media account informing her patrons that the restaurant would be closed for the day.

The restaurant was soon back in the swing of things.
While keeping busy, Bai Su directed the two little ones and the soldiers in the restaurant to serve the dishes.
