Chapter 125: What's the ranking of 125?

Lan Shiruo and the others were the last to arrive in City N after surviving the battle with the giant ape. The others arrived a day earlier and, after returning, were still terrified and shivered in their homes. Much of the news hadn't been spread. He Minyan hadn't seen anyone, so naturally she thought Kong Fenglin was dead. Everyone else thought so too. Some jumped ship, while others starved to death. When Kong Fenglin returned, he saw that everything had changed, and that's why he didn't look too good when he arrived. But no one told him about He Minyan's situation. Although he had heard some rumors, he believed in her from the bottom of his heart. After all, a young girl had followed an old man like him regardless of everything. It was always the woman who suffered, so he did his best to give her the best.

Now that Xia Xun was speaking frankly, Kong Fenglin's old face darkened. He was more angry than sad, annoyed by power. After Xia Xun pointed it out, what he had previously been unwilling to think about suddenly became clear. Yes, it was all about power. He Minyan wanted to live a comfortable life, relying on him, the Mao family, and any man who could benefit her. Therefore, power, everything was about power.

Lan Shiruo narrowed her eyes, she was going to turn evil.

The friend looked at the victim and ran away decisively.

Only Xia Xun and Ding Yibing were so stupid that they didn't understand what was going on, and were dragged away by the men.

Lan Shiruo asked, "Will you stay for the banquet tonight?"

A fierce look flashed in Kong Fenglin's eyes, "Yes."

Lan Shiruo leaned against Ao Chengyi and said calmly, "He won't help you. Those people are useless to him and are even a burden. Besides, you don't have enough capital to convince him."

Kong Fenglin clenched his fists. "I think people should still help each other at least a little bit, and they should still have the most basic humanity."

"Do you really think so? It didn't happen before the apocalypse, let alone after it. I don't think you are such a naive person."

Kong Fenglin lowered his eyes, unable to see what kind of emotions were rolling in his eyes. His voice was very low, "Yes, I'm not naive. Since it's hard for good people to survive, I will be a bad guy."

Lan Shiruo smiled faintly and shook her head. "No, there are no good or bad people in this world. There are only conflicts of interest and what you are willing to do. Good and bad are just definitions made by others to comfort themselves."

Kong Fenglin looked up at Lan Shiruo and asked, "Then what are you willing to do?"

Lan Shiruo curled her lips and glanced at the man beside her, "Let the people you care about live freely and casually, without being bound by people or things."

“It’s a blessing to be someone you care about.”

"I'm lucky because I have someone who cares about me. What about you? What are you willing to do?"

Kong Fenglin opened his mouth, unable to speak. What was he willing to do? It was to ensure that those who followed him could live well, but it was obvious that he couldn't do it, let alone do it well. Those who followed him betrayed him, and those he protected lost their lives. All of this was due to his incompetence, so he could do nothing.

Lan Shiruo sighed, starting to dwell on her own thoughts. "Without you, those people you protected would have died in City B or on the way to City N. Do you think those who betrayed you were because you were incompetent? No, it's because they're not content. City N, the Mao and Wei families, won't be their final destination." Their ultimate fate is death. Who would be willing to accept a fence-sitter?

Kong Fenglin was stunned and began to fall into self-doubt and confusion. He didn't know whether he was right or wrong, nor did he know what he should do.

"Don't worry, stay and have some fun tonight."

Ao Chengyi took his young wife out of the small house and found a spacious place. He began to feel jealous, "Girl thinks highly of him?"

The 1.9-meter-tall and strong man looked like a little wife, with a resentful look on his face. He looked at his wife with a small look, and his aggrieved look was so painful to watch.

Lan Shiruo couldn't help but rub his handsome face twice, "Aren't you going to build your own territory? You can't do everything yourself. Kong Fenglin is capable, so keeping him here won't hurt you. I feel sorry for you, so why are you unhappy?"

The dog man was comforted by a word of sympathy, and he hugged his young wife and said sweetly, "I know that girl loves me the most."

Lan Shiruo rolled her eyes at him, "Nonsense, the one I love most is obviously your son, then the generals, then Uncle Ying, then my friends and the guys who have become spirits, and then you. Count it up, which one do you come in?"

The bastard's face had turned as black as charcoal. Without a word, he carried his young wife into the small house, upstairs, and then into the space. Then he interrogated her for two hours, "Where am I in the ranking?"

Lan Shiruo felt like she had lost all hope in life. "First, you first."

The dog man was satisfied.

The little friends covered their mouths and laughed secretly, they didn't see anything.

Little Lebao poked his head out from Jiang Xiang's belly, blinking his big black and white eyes. He asked what his parents were playing with, and crawled after them on his short legs, "Daddy and Mommy, play."

Mom and Dad wanted to play by themselves and ignored the little one.

Niu Niu took her brother and started a fight with the evil guys again.

At night, the Wei family arrived as promised, bringing red wine and meat, as well as milk powder and toys for Xiao Lebao. Although the big team had all these things, their attitude was commendable and the gifts were also to their liking.

The only one who made the little friends unhappy was Du Yan, who really had the audacity to follow them.

Wei Xiongquan pretended not to know the relationship between the two parties and introduced him as his daughter's boyfriend.

Is it a test?

The little friend didn't care what he thought or how he behaved. Ci Guoguo disliked Du Yan and only talked to the Wei family.

The Wei family members understood each other roughly through observation and didn't say much. They got along very well with each other.

We sat at two large round tables that could seat more than ten people, one for men and one for women.

The table was filled with all kinds of delicious food, from the sky, underground, water, and soil. Even a district boss like Wei Xiong couldn't be so generous as to set aside two tables this large. The Wei family's view of large groups changed again.

Being ignored did not prevent Du Yan from sitting at the table. Looking at the table full of fish and meat, a haze flashed across his eyes. Bitch, their family has tried their best to just have enough food and clothing, and she can be so extravagant.

Kong Fenglin had always been invisible, observing the changes in the Wei family. Lan Shiruo and the others had enough capital, so the Wei family valued them. From the moment they walked in to the table full of food, their attention was increasing. This was capital.

Kong Fenglin lowered his eyes, his heart in turmoil.

He's father, considered the host and the elder of the group, spoke first. "Today, thanks to the children, I'm inviting my old friend and his family to a get-together. If it weren't for the help of Old Wei's family, I don't know what would have happened to the child's mother and me these days. So, the first glass of wine is to Old Wei and his wife. Thank you."

Without the aura of a superior, Wei Xiong acted like an old friend, putting his arm around He's father's shoulder. "It's awkward for us to talk about this between brothers. If you hadn't helped me before, there wouldn't be Wei Xiong today. If I really want to count, I have to offer you a bottle of wine."

He's father laughed out loud, "No, no, let's just talk about the present. It's rare for us to get together today. Come on, have a drink."

"Okay, drink."
