Although my attempt at making this pancake was a failure, seeing Yunyi laugh like this made it all worthwhile.
They flattened the pancake and placed it on top of the stew to steam. It turned out to be quite edible, though the dish was almost burnt because it hadn't been stirred in time.
Huo Jingrui helped dish out the food. "Later, I'll find someone to make a small table for you to put in the kitchen," he said. "It's getting colder, so if you don't want to carry food back to your room, it will be nice to stay warm by the stove."
Yunyi gave a soft 'mhm,' not rejecting the idea.
Once the food was served, Huo Jingrui handed Yunyi a pair of chopsticks. "Winter's just around the corner, and we'll soon be holing up for it," he said. "Tomorrow, I'll get you a small clay stove and some coal briquettes. If you don't want to come out when it gets cold, you can boil water and stew dishes in your room. That way, you won't have to face the cold."
