Chapter 162 Kunsang's Imagination
Huan Linyuan apologized to Wei Hai and explained, "Mr. Wei Hai, Kun Sang didn't mean it. It was just that something happened in Mercenary City a few days ago. Someone was using the name of Molan City to cheat people out of food and drinks. He even asked the people in Mercenary City to send the bill to Molan City, so Kun Sang is a little sensitive about this."
After hearing this, Wei Hai smiled and said he understood. After Kun Sang apologized in a rough voice while being held down on the head, Wei Hai generously said that he would not bother with the ignorant boy. Only after Kun Sang was so angry that he was fuming did he let the matter go in a few words.
Huan Linyuan praised Mr. Wei Hai in his heart, saying that he was a smart man who would never suffer any loss. No wonder Commander Lin had warned him before that even if he had to offend Zhong Teng, he should not offend Mr. Wei Hai.
Seeing that the conflict between the two sides had ended, Zhong Teng, who had been extremely worried, asked anxiously, "Xiao Qiu's savior, did something happen to Xiao Qiu? How is he now? Is he injured?"
There was a look of worry on Zhong Teng's handsome face. Xiaoqiu was his last relative and his most beloved brother. Nothing could happen to him.
Mr. Wei Hai naturally knew how important Xiao Qiu was to Zhong Teng. He smiled and reassured him, "Don't worry, he just got a black eye from being beaten up. He's fine now, not even a bruise remains. Xiao Qiu was quite formidable, she beat those guys until they were bleeding."
"Oh—Xiao Qiu fought back?"
Zhong Teng looked very excited.
Seeing that he was listening attentively and calmly, wanting to hear about his younger brother's glorious deeds, Wei Hai smiled and told the children the story of how Xiao Qiu beat up Kui Hu and others. Zhong Teng felt so proud after hearing it.
He is indeed his younger brother.
Huan Linyuan also smiled and narrowed his eyes. "So this Miss Yun is quite impressive. It just so happens that Longteng is short of contestants. We can invite Miss Yun."
Wei Hai gave him an appreciative look, but did not immediately agree. Instead, he said, "Miss Yun and her companion are businessmen."
Seeing Huan Linyuan wanted to say something, Wei Hai just smiled and changed the subject, "Mr. Pei Yu is also in Miss Yun's caravan. I saw Mr. Pei's heroic figure in Chaos City nineteen years ago, so there is no way I would mistake him. Isn't Mr. Pei from Molan City?"
"Yes, yes, of course it is. I didn't expect this guy to be here."
Several people from Molan City smiled at the same time.
Kunsang snorted, "Didn't he leave a letter saying he'd find a good feng shui spot to die? Why isn't he dead yet?"
"Kunsang——"
"Kunsang——"
Immediately, several warning voices rang out, trying to stop him dissatisfiedly.
But Kunsang still stiffened his neck and complained indignantly, "Am I wrong? He ran away without saying a word before. We spent so much time looking for him. Two teams were attacked by frenzied beasts while searching for him. Lu Quan was seriously injured and lying in bed with a broken arm. And yet this guy showed up here alive and well, even working as a businessman. Humph, why didn't he tell us a news? I thought he died outside and no one was there to collect his body."
His words were hasty, harsh, and harsh, and they sounded very unpleasant.
This made Wei Hai understand the true nature of this kid. He was so outspoken even when talking about his own people. He spoke loudly but they were still alive, and he kept quiet to collect the bodies. In comparison, the words that questioned him just now did not sound so harsh.
But Huan Linyuan and the others looked at each other strangely. "Hey, Kunsang, didn't Commander Lin tell you about this? Our Captain Mo had already informed us that Pei Yu was with him and told us not to worry. Otherwise, why would we cancel the notice to search for him in the Mercenary City and call back the team that was sent out to search for him?"
Kunsang's face froze, and he mechanically turned his neck to look at them. "Didn't you give up because you couldn't find it?"
He had previously secretly cursed his cousin for being cold-blooded and had sneaked out to look for him.
But this matter must never be made known to others.
Huan Linyuan blinked, thinking that it was the fault of the lack of information and Chief Lin being too busy to communicate with his family in time.
But this doesn't make sense. Everyone else who went out to search in Molan City also knew about this. Otherwise, how could they give up looking for Pei Yu?
Although Pei Yu's outfit was a bit eye-catching and didn't fit in with their legion, he was still a member of the legion after all, a comrade who had lived and died together and had made meritorious contributions. The honor of the legion was that they could not give up on a comrade, and they would continue to look for him as long as they didn't find the body.
"Ahem." Huan Linyuan coughed lightly. "Kunsang, I think there's a misunderstanding. The day after we asked you to withdraw, we told the team the reason why we wouldn't be looking for you anymore. Weren't you in the team at the time?"
Kunsang's eyes widened in shock.
During the day, he thought about the reasons for the withdrawal of the search team and finally came up with the most likely reason, which was that his cousin wanted to abandon Captain Mo's cousin, and then take advantage of the fact that Captain Mo was away from home all year round to usurp the throne and change the name of the mayor of Molan City.
So that night he couldn't bear it and sneaked out to find Pei Yu.
Of course, he was not found later, and then Longteng's leader Zhong Teng came to Molan City in person to ask for help. His cousin also sent his favorite deputy to bring out Hai Lang, Ming Mu and other close confidants of Captain Mo, and even brought out Ming Xiao, who had been lying in bed for many years and was so thin that only a bag of bones was left. This made him even more convinced that his cousin was planning to usurp the throne.
For this reason, he tossed and turned for several days on the way here and couldn't sleep well, wondering whether he should support his cousin or report his cousin for the sake of justice.
Unexpectedly, these were all his guesses. He didn't look for Pei Yu because Captain Mo had news.
Kunsang's dark, tough face flushed red, filled with shame, and he stammered, "No, no, I was out for something at the time, so I didn't hear it."
"Oh, then you didn't ask anyone else?"
"No, I, I was busy and forgot."
Kunsang thought that he was so guilty that he thought he had guessed his cousin's thoughts at that time. When he heard about Pei Yu, he turned around and ran away. How could he have the courage to ask?
Huan Linyuan gave him a look that said "Why are you so unreliable?", which made Kunsang's face turn redder.
Kunsang knew he was in the wrong, so he turned his face away and did not interrupt the rest of the conversation. He pursed his lips, closed his mouth, looked sour, and felt depressed.
This depression exploded when he saw Pei Yu, who was jumping around, not thin or dead, and had a rosy complexion and looked a little fatter.
I'll just catch Pei Yu and have a long-awaited sparring match with him.
Pei Yu, who had just eaten and drunk enough and wasn't suitable for strenuous exercise, said: ???
Meow meow, who did he offend?
Why is Kunsang, this violent guy, here too?
