Chapter 417: 233 Delusional (First Update)_2

So she bit her lip, forced out tears, and knelt directly in front of Bai Ye, looking up at him with a pitiful expression and said in a grief-stricken voice, "Big brother, please save me! Feng Yue is not human at all, he will kill me!"

She had already offended Feng Yue, and once these honored guests left, Feng Yue was sure not to let her go! Since that was the case, she might as well fight for herself! However, this time she didn’t put all her hopes on Bai Ye alone, and while she spoke, she glanced around at the others.

Then she noticed Fang Yuyang and Fang Jintang, both of them as strikingly handsome as Bai Ye, if not more so. It’s just that they each had a beautiful woman by their side, and she feared they wouldn’t be inclined to help easily.

Li Ranqiu quickly sized up everyone, but to her surprise, these people remained indifferent, showing no sympathy or pity for her plight!

This was illogical!

She was beautiful, the school beauty since childhood, and the boys in class always took good care of her. Often, all it took was a little coquetry or a frown from her, and someone would volunteer to help. Initially, Feng Yue was moved by her pitiable appearance and gentle gestures, always carefully protecting her.

But now, this tactic suddenly wasn’t working! Was it her charm that had decreased, or were these people all unromantic?

Li Ranqiu couldn’t bear the thought of her charm waning and subconsciously figured that these people must be unromantic!

At the same time, she discreetly observed Qu Qianhe, Fang Yuxin, Shang Jinxiu, and Meng Qingluo. These four could all be counted as great beauties, but they were fierce and tough, without any trace of the femininity they should possess. She refused to believe that these men would prefer such tomboys!

So she quickly said, "My family is in Beishi City, I lost communication with them after the apocalypse, I don’t know how my parents are doing, please save me, if you can take me back to Beishi City, I will ensure my parents reward you!"

Such words might have had some effect before the apocalypse, given her family’s wealth, the reward she could offer was definitely substantial. But now it was the apocalypse, and the old money had become worthless, with food and Crystal Cores the most precious commodities. Her parents were certainly not young, and even if they were lucky enough not to be dead, what kind of significant reward could they possibly offer?

Thus, to Li Ranqiu’s plea, Bai Ye and the others simply sneered. They weren’t fools; they could see right through Li Ranqiu’s scheming. Even if Li Ranqiu were just a single woman, they wouldn’t want to take on such a burden, let alone the fact that she was clearly Feng Yue’s woman, and now pregnant, they wouldn’t possibly take her with them.

Everyone instinctively glanced at Feng Yue’s face, and sure enough, they saw that he had already turned livid with rage. The group silently pitied him, feeling that the man was indeed very unlucky.

But after such an incident, it was inappropriate for them to continue to stay.

Bai Ye then took the initiative to speak, "It’s getting late, we still have a journey ahead, are the maps ready?"

Feng Yue actually couldn’t wait for them to leave, to avoid further embarrassment. He grabbed Li Ranqiu before she could speak, struck her with the edge of his hand on her neck, knocking her unconscious. Then Feng Yue said, "Rest assured, everything will be ready soon!"

Just then, someone came in a hurry, reporting that the meal was ready. Feng Yue simply had the people lead Bai Ye and his group over, carried Li Ranqiu back to his house, had her watched, and then rushed to the dining area, eager to serve Bai Ye and the others.

To show his sincerity, he specifically found good wine, and they all drank a little. Not wanting to overindulge, the bottle of wine was quickly empty. The meal prepared by Feng Yue was quite lavish, with meat, talent, and some soaked mountain delicacies. However, apart from the stored potatoes, sweet potatoes, and cabbage, there were no other fresh vegetables to be had, and the taste couldn’t compare to Fang Yuxin’s cooking.

Being away from home, Fang Yuxin and the group didn’t complain, quickly filling their stomachs and then proposed to leave.

Feng Yue had already prepared all the agreed-upon items, and seeing that Fang Yuxin and his group wanted to leave, he didn’t dare to detain them but personally handed over the items to Bai Ye. Fang Yuxin hesitated for a moment but still told him the mental method of the Qi Cultivation Technique, gave him a warning, bid farewell to Feng Yue, and got back on the road.

After they left, Feng Yue immediately dropped the smile from his face, called his trusted aides, and ordered, "Re-register everyone in the base, arrange those with special skills separately, and all the able-bodied, regardless of gender, are to be incorporated into the guard squad. You have half a day to handle this, and tomorrow everyone starts training!"

Having given his orders, he rubbed his face vigorously. If he wanted to build up the base, he couldn’t just focus on cultivation as before. Besides, Fang Yuxin had bestowed such a generous gift upon him; not making good use of it would be a waste.

Although he was greedy, he knew the difficulty of acting alone; outside, there were not only zombies but also mutated creatures. He alone was not enough! He had to train his people into a strong force to survive better!

After making arrangements, he strode home. Li Ranqiu had made him lose face, even foolishly dreaming of leaving him for someone better – he couldn’t let this go!

This woman had been held high for too long and likely forgotten her place; he needed to help her see reality! To make her understand what she should do and what she absolutely must not do!
