Chapter 561: Poisonous Tongue
Gu Cheng did not rush into M-City upon arriving, instead finding a place for everyone to settle down. It was called a place, but it was merely a small warehouse that could fit a dozen or so of them.
It was a place where they could stay, following it up with dinner. Qin Yi did not know how the village chief arranged for it, but he did not move much.
What Qin Yi found strange was that Gu Cheng and the others did not move as well.
Everyone looked at each other before Qin Yi finally heard Gu Cheng’s solemn voice sound out after a long time, “Whose turn is it this time?”
They came out according to sequence to ensure fairness. At the same time, they had to take turns to cook.
“It’s Aunty Yang,” a shy voice spoke out. Huang Ying took a quick glance at Yang Jindi and lowered her head. She was obviously scared.
“Bullshit, wasn’t I the one who prepared the food recently?” When Yang Jindi heard Huang Ying mention her, she immediately became infuriated, standing up to scold her. “You little rascal, what are you spouting nonsense about? You laze around all day and do nothing, now you have the nerve to accuse me?! Trash without parents, you deserved to be thrown!”
Yang Jindi’s voice was sharp and caused Qin Yi to frown.
Huang Ying was merely a child; how could she be Yang Jindi’s opponent? Her eyes immediately turned red, almost crying.
Yang Jindi’s eyes flashed with disdain and she glanced over at Qin Yi’s trio. Her eyes gleamed as she added, “Some people here are so thick skinned to follow us here, even waiting for us to prepare food for them.”
None of the abandoned cities had electricity and the small warehouse only had a few campfires.
Under the light, Qin Yi’s handsome face flickered, smeared with a hint of mystery.
“The shameless people that followed along are still better than a certain lazy someone. Furthermore, did I say we were eating with you?” Qin Yi looked at Yang Jindi indifferently, a coldness in her eyes that caused a shiver to run down Yang Jindi’s spine.
‘Stinking brat, why do you stare at me so scarily?’ she fumed.
Qin Yi smirked. Eat with them? Forget it! She would not be able to digest.
“Aiya, Xiao Yiyi, you don’t have to talk much to such shameless people. It’s nighttime and the fire is so warm. I’m afraid her man did not satisfy her well. Some people need men in their lives, especially at night. You have to understand their mood and desires.”
No one could compete with Feng Qingge in terms of a poisonous tongue.
Even Yang Jindi’s thick, old face turned red when she heard Feng Qingge’s words.
“You…”
“Alright, enough,” Gu Cheng spoke up, intercepting Yang Jindi before she could curse back. “Yang Jindi, they are all children. Watch your words.”
Gu Cheng remained quiet, but she was still angry.
Everyone knew how benevolent the village chief was. Yang Jindi was not acting her age, and this caused him to be mad.
If it was before, Yang Jindi would make a fuss about it. But she did not dare to do so at the moment, as Gu Cheng’s cold glare was warning her not to do anything.
“Alright, it’s getting late. Eat up and rest.” Gu Cheng was slightly satisfied at seeing that Yang Jindi was in place. He recovered back to his usual kind self and continued, “Yang Jindi, don’t deny it. It’s your turn to prepare the food. If you’re really unwilling, I won’t force you, but don’t think about getting any crystal cores.”
