Chapter 228 I Didn’t Steal Anything

Li Guangzong was so angry with this kid, but the old man still stepped forward to protect him. Li Guangzong's furious expression contained a bit of pity for his misfortune and anger at his lack of fighting spirit!

"Grandpa, he's treated you like this, and you're still protecting him? You're just living off your parents!"

Seeing that his grandfather was protecting him, Gu Mao gathered his strength and pulled back Li Guangzong's hand that was holding his collar, shouting, "Even if you have special abilities, you can't interfere in my family affairs. What's it to you that my grandfather loves me? He's just willing to find food for me! So what if I'm just a parasite? You think you're a police officer or a government employee by interfering so much!"

He tried to pry Li Guangzong's fingers apart with all his strength, but they wouldn't budge at all. Li Guangzong kept pulling on his collar tighter and tighter, and he seemed to be almost suffocating. He quickly reached out and grabbed his grandfather's arm, crying in panic.

"Grandpa, Grandpa, I can't breathe!"

"Maomao, Maomao!"

Li Guangzong was so angry when he saw the old man's distressed look that he let go and left Gu Mao, who was acting so well.

Gu Mao's collar was suddenly loosened and he took several steps back before he could stand firm. He was so scared that he held his grandfather's hand tightly and dared not let go, as if he had grabbed a life-saving straw.

Liu Yu and the others watched the scene in front of them coldly without intervening. Because if they intervened, it would not just be a verbal threat to scare the boy, it would at least make him know what pain was.

The old man supported his grandson, his face showing a distressed and embarrassed expression. He was embarrassed because he had angered his savior, and he felt sorry for his daughter's only child who was hungry and scared.

After this unexpected incident, the old man's wrinkled face drooped, and he no longer had the face to talk to Liu Yu and the others. His hunched back seemed to bend even more, and he pulled Gu Mao up and was about to leave.

But just as the old man turned around and was about to take a step, a force was suddenly exerted on his shoulder.

He turned around in surprise and saw Liu Yu pulling up his skinny hand and stuffing two packs of 250-gram compressed biscuits into it.

"Thank you for taking the risk to remind us just now. This is a token of your appreciation."

After saying that, Liu Yu walked back to his seat, completely ignoring the surprised looks of the old man and other black mud people behind him.

When he saw the food, Gu Mao immediately stopped caring about whether his throat hurt or not. His eyes lit up, and he grabbed the compressed biscuits, tore open the bag and gobbled them up.

The old man was also extremely hungry. He looked at Liu Yu hesitantly, then tore the biscuit bag with a face full of shame.

But he had been hungry for too many days and his hands were completely powerless. He tried several times but failed to open the package. He looked at his grandson who was only concerned about himself and finally sighed helplessly.

The young soldier who was watching from the side showed a trace of pity in his eyes, and stepped forward to open the bag for him. It was really sad to depend on such selfish relatives.

Gu Mao, who was completely oblivious to the outside world, stuffed the biscuits into his mouth like a starving ghost, bit off a big piece and chewed it hurriedly.

But he bit too big and the compressed biscuits were too dry, choking him and blocking his throat, making him unable to swallow.

He rolled his eyes and coughed hard to get out the biscuit crumbs that were stuck in his throat. The compressed biscuit crumbs were scattered all over the floor, making Zhuang Moxing frown slightly out of disgust.

Gu Mao then ran to his bedding, dug out a bottle of water and drank it in big gulps, and took another bite while swallowing the dry biscuits. He ignored the eager eyes of the people around him and ate with relish.

In the corner where the black mud men gathered the most, three short children were hiding. They were staring at the biscuit crumbs that Gu Mao sprayed on the ground, rubbing them uncomfortably with their little hands.

After enduring for two seconds, one of the little kids sneaked through the crack in the wall and ran to where Liu Yu and the others were sitting.

He hid for a while, and when no one was paying attention, he quickly picked up the biscuit crumbs on the ground and stuffed them into his mouth.

As soon as the biscuit crumbs entered his mouth, he started to eat them with a "wow wow" sound. His eyes on his thin little face were black and bright, and they became surprisingly brighter the moment he ate the compressed biscuits.

"Sorry, sorry, I neglected you! I took a bath, otherwise I was afraid that it would make you all smell bad!"

Zheng Yang quickly washed off the black mud on his body, stepped into the cave and shouted.

When they got a few steps closer, they saw Wang Lin's youngest son hiding behind Liu Yu and the others, eating something on the ground. He opened his eyes wide and shouted in panic, "You idiot! What are you doing!"

Zheng Yang was afraid that the people on their side would get confused and provoke Liu Yu and the others. They, a group of ordinary people, could not deal with people with superpowers!

Junjun, who was secretly picking up biscuit crumbs on the ground, was frightened by the sudden roar. He trembled all over, looked at the cave entrance in panic, and then ran quickly towards his mother.

Seeing the child slip away so quickly, Zheng Yang hurried over to apologize to Liu Yu and the others, "I'm sorry, I'm sorry. Our child here is ignorant. He didn't steal anything from you, did he?"

"No, I didn't steal anything!" Junjun buried himself in his mother's arms and argued in a hoarse and weak voice.

Ling Bao, who had watched the whole thing from beginning to end, leaned on Liu Yu's shoulder and nodded in agreement: "Brother, you didn't steal anything. Ling Bao saw it all and can testify!"

The fat and black Lingbao, who was in a completely different state from Junjun, raised his chubby little hand to make a promise.

Liu Yu and the others were not ordinary people either. They had noticed when Junjun sneaked up behind them just now, but they did not disturb him and let him move.

So Zheng Yang wanted to blame someone now, but Liu Yu and the others didn't have that idea.

"Don't pursue that. First, tell me what dangers are ahead in the river."

Liu Yu glanced at a group of people in the corner who were looking at the biscuits in Gu Mao's hand and swallowing their saliva secretly. His eyes flashed and he opened his mouth to add another sentence.

"Information can be exchanged with you for supplies, the more detailed the better."

As soon as he finished speaking, Liu Yu summoned from the space an iron bucket of compressed biscuits, a box of instant noodles, and also took out a dozen unisex cotton coats and trousers.

Zheng Yang had just stood firm and was about to report the information he had to Liu Yu and others truthfully, when suddenly so much food was placed in front of him that his breathing stopped!

"This, this is food!!"
