Chapter 85 Essence

After working for more than two hours, everyone managed to block the entrance of the cave.

Cheng Sinian parked the RV on the side closest to the cave entrance, and then had the other cars parked outwards in turn.

This will not only maximize the effectiveness of Jiang Zhan's mental detection, but also protect the safety of other people in the convoy.

After setting up camp, Qiao Yu looked out the car window at Yu Qingchuan, who was helping the Lin family light a bonfire, and whispered to Jiang Zhan beside him, "Although Yu Qingchuan is not Dr. Yu's biological son, he really does look like Dr. Yu in some ways."

Just as helpful.

Cheng Sinian was originally playing with Luo Zhenzhen's little hand. Hearing this, he raised his eyes and said, "Maybe it's Dr. Yu's words and deeds."

"Maybe." Qiao Yu propped up his chin with his hand. "But no matter what, he and Dr. Yu can't be the same kind of people."

Dr. and Mrs. Yu are truly approachable people. They treat everyone with tolerance and equality.

But Yu Qingchuan is not.

He appears gentle and refined on the surface, but in fact he is a bit distant in nature.

All his warmth was tinged with a subtle indifference.

After the convoy came out of Dama Village, they saw a military green truck on the road.

There was a lot of blood on the ground around the truck, but no one was inside.

Based on the remaining water on the truck, Qiao Yu could basically conclude that this was the truck belonging to the villagers of Dama Village.

After hearing the news, Yu Qingchuan remained calm.

Anger, relief, contempt, pity... none of that.

He just smiled softly.

So from a certain perspective, Qiao Yu felt that Yu Qingchuan was actually very similar to Jiang Zhan. Both were essentially indifferent.

It’s just that he is better at hiding than Jiang Zhan.

It's like having a mask.

Without the mask, he is the gentle and elegant adopted son of Dr. Yu.

And under the mask, he is probably not much gentler than Jiang Zhan.

Cheng Sinian shrugged and said nothing.

Before going to bed, Qiao Yu placed two jade vines by the entrance of the cave.

Although it was Fang Lin and the others' turn to keep watch tonight, Qiao Yu always felt that the three of them were not very reliable, so every time it was their turn to keep watch, Qiao Yu would be prepared.

Qiao Yu put the jade vine away and turned around to meet Yu Qingchuan's inquiring eyes.

"Is this also a mutant plant?" Yu Qingchuan said with a warm expression.

"Uh...yes."

Qiao Yu sighed inwardly: "Can you see in such a thick fog? Are all mutants so good at seeing?"

Yu Qingchuan smiled again. "I've seen you take them out several times at night and put them back in the morning. Do you want to keep them? If you need anything, I can help you."

"No need, Mr. Yu." Qiao Yu rubbed his nose, feeling helpless about his subtle probing. "Actually, if you have something to say, you can just tell me directly. There's no need to beat around the bush..."

"Okay. Then Miss Qiao, I want to study this plant. Can you give me one, please?" Yu Qingchuan readily agreed, his tone very sincere.

“…”

There's no need to be so direct when pouring.

Qiao Yu was embarrassed and shook his head, saying, "I'm sorry, Mr. Yu, I'm afraid this won't work."

Yu Qingchuan already knew about their special abilities, and she didn't intend to let him know about the space.

After all, revealing one of the trump cards is dangerous enough, it is impossible to reveal both of them.

Yu Qingchuan wanted to say something after hearing this, but just as he opened his mouth, before he could utter a word, he heard Jiang Zhan's low voice behind him, "Ayu."

Yu Qingchuan turned around and immediately met Jiang Zhan's sharp eyes.

The warning and malice in those eyes were so obvious that it made people feel a chill involuntarily.

Jiang Zhan is a very dangerous person.

This was the information that had been engraved in Yu Qingchuan's mind since the first time he met Jiang Zhan.

In his opinion, being powerful and indifferent is dangerous.

Dangerous people should never be approached.

Unless you know his bottom line and stay away from that line at all times.

Obviously, for Jiang Zhan, Qiao Yu is the bottom line.

It was precisely because of Qiao Yu's presence that Yu Qingchuan could feel at ease to go to City G with their convoy.

But the situation is not good now. He was anxious for a moment and seemed to have accidentally touched the line.

When Qiao Yu saw Jiang Zhan coming out to look for her, she hurriedly took two steps to greet him.

The moment Qiao Yu came over, Jiang Zhan tightly hugged her waist, then turned around with Qiao Yu and prepared to return to the RV.

When turning around, Jiang Zhan glanced at Yu Qingchuan dimly.

Yu Qingchuan felt a chill on his back and seemed to hear the sound of someone sharpening a knife in his ears.

So, trying to make up for it, he immediately whispered to the two men behind their backs, "Mr. Jiang, Mrs. Qiao... Jiang! I have no ill will towards you."

Unless necessary, he absolutely did not want to offend Jiang Zhan.

Sure enough, when Jiang Zhan heard the name "Mrs. Jiang", Yu Qingchuan felt that the sound of knife sharpening in his ears seemed to have become smaller.

Qiao Yu paused when he heard this, turned his head slightly, and replied, "Then Mr. Yu can rest assured. We have no ill will towards you."

Yu Qingchuan looked at Jiang Zhan's back as he got into the car, and silently complained in his heart: That's not necessarily true...

As soon as Qiao Yu got in the car, before she had time to say hello to Cheng Sinian and Luo Zhenzhen, Jiang Zhan carried her back to the room with one hand.

The small door of the compartment closed with a "click".

Luo Zhenzhen was sitting in Cheng Sinian's arms reading a book with him. Seeing this, her face was confused. "Is Brother Jiang angry? Did they... have a fight?"

"Is he stupid? How could a man like Brother Zhan be willing to quarrel with Qiao Yu?" Cheng Sinian looked at the closed door, his lips curled up, his eyes full of gloating. "At most, it's just 'corporal punishment'."

There was a hint of suggestion in Cheng Sinian's eyes.

Luo Zhenzhen understood, and her cheeks flushed slightly.

Cheng Sinian felt a surge of heat in his heart when he saw this. He unconsciously licked the corners of his dry lips and whispered seductively, "It's quite troublesome to lower your bed. You should sleep with me tonight."

Although I can’t eat meat now, it’s good to be able to sleep in your arms.

Luo Zhenzhen didn't say anything when she heard this, but the blush on her face became more obvious.

This big-tailed wolf has bad intentions every day.

The day after they left Dama Village, Cheng Sinian reprimanded her severely because she did not put away the water bottle that she had placed by the bed at night and accidentally let it fall from the lift bed while driving.

Cheng Sinian told her seriously how dangerous this behavior was, and then he raised her lift bed with confidence.

She originally thought that what Cheng Sinian said was quite right and kept blaming herself.

As a result, when she wanted to put down the bed to sleep at night, Cheng Sinian's true colors were revealed.

He refused to let her get off the bed no matter what and insisted that she sleep in his bed.

Luo Zhenzhen thought about Cheng Sinian's physical reaction that night and didn't want to agree at first, but she couldn't stand Cheng Sinian rolling around and throwing a tantrum.

So for so many days, her bed never came down again.

And I don’t know if it’s because of her indulgence, but Cheng Sinian is now much bolder.

Although there would be no substantial action, every night when he held her in his arms, he would touch here and pinch there, and would not let her sleep until her face turned red and her whole body became weak.

The key is that he himself is also uncomfortable.

She was woken up almost every day.

She really couldn't understand.

Cheng Sinian was so miserable every day, why did he still insist on sleeping with her...

It harms others and does not benefit yourself.
