The meal lasted until nightfall, and Yuwen Xin and Song Xiangming left only after they were both quite drunk, requiring the help of several of their men.

As for Little Fatty, he chose to stay.

"Brother Yuan, let me tell you, you've got me on my toes! But seriously, you've managed to find someone again in the last few days. You're a traitor! A traitor!"

Little Fatty wobbled and pointed at Jiang Yuan, laughing and cursing.

"Little Fatty, if you can't drink, then drink less!" Jiang Yuan had no choice but to snatch the wine from his hand. Listen to what he said, what does it mean to say you've found another girlfriend? Are you trying to embarrass me?

"I can't drink? Impossible! I once got an entire dorm drunk!" Little Fatty muttered.

"Brother, you got yourself drunk!" Jiang Yuan was speechless.

"Yeah?"

Little Fatty looked puzzled, then wobbled and collapsed onto the table, falling fast asleep.

"Your roommate is quite interesting!"

Seeing the chubby Ning Yanlan fall asleep after talking drunkenly, she smiled at Jiang Yuan, but her eyes revealed her dissatisfaction with Jiang Yuan. It was obvious that she was provoked by the chubby boy's words about 'getting out of singlehood again'.

"I'm full, I'm going upstairs to sleep!" Leng Yue put down her utensils and walked towards the car without looking back.

"Hey, Leng Yue, wait a minute!"

"What is it?" Leng Yue stopped, but did not turn around.

"Here, have this fruit!" Jiang Yuan tossed the Crimson Blood Fruit to him.

Leng Yue caught the Crimson Blood Fruit, and when she saw Jiang Yuan and Ning Yanlan cuddling together, she suddenly said, "So sweet? Are you after me?"

Jiang Yuan's eyelids twitched involuntarily. This woman really dared to speak her mind. But as the saying goes, "You have your clever plan, and I have my countermeasure." He pretended to be very surprised and said, "How did you know!"

Leng Yue's heart skipped a beat.

Ning Yanlan narrowed her eyes menacingly, about to erupt in anger, when Jiang Yuan immediately said, "Could you help take care of Little Fatty?"

He hadn't originally planned to do that, but Leng Yue had deliberately tricked him, so how could he not retaliate?

"That's it?" Leng Yue stared at Jiang Yuan with murderous intent.

"Could it be that you have other intentions?" Jiang Yuan chuckled awkwardly.

After staring at each other for three seconds, Leng Yue glanced at the Crimson Blood Fruit in her hand, walked over to Little Fatty, and grabbed him, saying, "Then we're even!"

After saying that, Xiao Pang was pulled into the car by Leng Yue and settled in to rest.

"You know she's joking with you, yet you still deliberately annoy her!" Ning Yanlan pinched Jiang Yuan's waist.

"I was just joking with her. What can I do if she takes it seriously?" Jiang Yuan said innocently.

"Brother and sister, I'm going to rest too!" Lin Siyin's temperament has recovered a lot after experiencing the beast tide. Perhaps the baptism of war has given her once ravaged heart a rare liberation.

"Wait, there's still a gift for you!" Jiang Yuan grabbed Lin Siyin.

Upon hearing this, Wen Manqing immediately stopped eating and said, "Jiang Yuan, thank you for your kindness, but you have already helped us too much. It would be inappropriate to give us more gifts!"

"Sister Manqing, you're too kind. We've already troubled you enough by eating and staying here for free for a whole day. A gift wouldn't be too much!" Jiang Yuan explained.

"Brother Jiang Yuan, Sister Yan Lan, I appreciate your kindness, but I've already received enough from you, so I really can't accept any more gifts from you!" Lin Siyin also got up to leave, hoping to avoid Jiang Yuan's gifts.

"Siyin, you and your aunt are planning to stay at Camp 39, right?"

Jiang Yuan didn't rush to stop her, but instead started chatting normally with Lin Siyin.

Lin Siyin and Wen Manying exchanged a glance. She didn't know why Jiang Yuan would ask that question, but since the gift wasn't mentioned, she had no choice but to sit down again.

"Yes!" Lin Siyin nodded. "Now my aunt is my only family left. Wherever my aunt stays, I'll stay too!"

"In that case, if we leave Camp 39, are you capable of protecting yourselves?" Jiang Yuan asked in a casual, conversational tone.

"To be honest, no!" Lin Siyin shook her head.

Jiang Yuan was about to speak, but Lin Siyin said earnestly, "But I will work hard and do my best to give my aunt a good life!"

"Then do you understand that some things can't be obtained through hard work alone?" Jiang Yuan reminded him.

“I know, but my father once said that if you try your best, you may not get results, but you will never have regrets!” Lin Siyin clenched her fist. She was able to face her experience and step out of her father’s shadow.

Now, she lives not only for herself, but also for her family.

“But if you can go further, I think your father will be even more pleased with your efforts!” Jiang Yuan stretched out his hand, where a mark of the dead floated up and down.

If Jiang Yuan were to materialize the Heavenly Poison Body within the Mark of the Dead, it would consume ten thousand Marks of the Dead. However, sacrificing the mark to pass on the Heavenly Poison Body would not waste ten thousand Marks of the Dead. Jiang Yuan understood very well how to choose between them.

"What is this?" Lin Siyin instinctively wanted to reach out, but her willpower controlled the impulse.

"You deserve it!" Jiang Yuan said four words. Qin Yangshu had harmed her, and now she was using her special physique to make amends. This was karma!

"I deserve it?"

Lin Siyin was puzzled, but she didn't ask.

"Don't resist, I'll give you the thing!"

Jiang Yuan held the Mark of the Dead, the Hand of Death completely overlapping with his own. The fragments of Qin Yangshu's soul left behind cursed wildly when he sacrificed the Mark of the Dead. Although the curse had long since lost its consciousness, it was filled with resentment when the soul was annihilated.

"The Hand of Death - Inheritance!"

The deep, cold voice seemed to contradict Jiang Yuan's words.
