Yingyue spoke with a serious expression.

Zhuo Qihua stared at Yingyue, his jaw clenched and his eyes wide with rage.

He struggled, wanting to pounce on her and bite her to death.

Zhuo Qihua's killing intent was too strong, and Yingyue subconsciously moved behind Huo Cheng.

He grabbed Huo Cheng's sleeve.

"Huo Cheng, he still wants to kill someone."

"Don't be afraid, Yueyue."

Huo Cheng took her hand and held it gently to comfort her, telling her not to be afraid.

At the same time, Huo Cheng coldly glanced at Zhuo Qihua.

He immediately ordered someone to take him away.

Ask him carefully and see who's behind him.

Their island isn't big, but it's not exactly small either.

However, one traitor after another emerged.

interesting.

Dou Chenfeng and his men took Zhuo Qihua away, and Yingyue then emerged from behind Huo Cheng.

"Is Yueyue alright?"

Huo Cheng asked softly.

Yingyue nodded.

"I'm fine."

It was just that Zhuo Qihua's overly strong malice earlier made her feel a little uncomfortable.

After exchanging a few words and confirming that Yingyue was no longer needed here, she rode her bike home.

"I don't know when I'll be done with this work. I eat dinner at the cafeteria every month."

Before leaving, Huo Cheng gave her some instructions.

Yingyue can't cook.

Huo Cheng didn't plan to let her cook either.

The family has all the money and tickets, and Yingyue knows where they are kept.

She can just take her money and tickets to the canteen to eat.

Yingyue nodded.

"Do you know what time the cafeteria opens for meals?" Huo Cheng was still a little worried, as if he were instructing a child who was going out for the first time.

Yingyue really doesn't know.

Huo Cheng smiled and pinched her round cheeks. "Four-thirty is fine, five o'clock is perfect."

"I understand!"

Yingyue nodded in understanding, "I'll ask Qingqing to come with me."

"good."

After explaining everything, Yingyue returned to the family compound.

This time, instead of rushing out, she parked her bicycle and went to the neighbor's yard to find Huo Qing.

"Yueyue, you're back!"

Huo Qing was overjoyed to see Yingyue return and took her hand to go inside. "Come and drink some mung bean soup. Feng-ge cooked it and added sugar. It's sweet and just right."

Because Huo Qing is pregnant, she can't eat popsicles and drink soda every day like Ying Yue. But Dou Chenfeng feels sorry for her and doesn't want his wife's pregnancy to be like being in prison, making her life miserable.

Therefore, he would try different ways to make delicious food for Huo Qing every day.

Mung bean soup, a refreshing and cooling dessert, is a very pleasant drink to have on a hot summer day.

The mung bean soup that Yingyue drank was already cooled down by Huo Qing; it had a sweet taste that she really liked.

Seeing this, Huo Qing took the bowl from Yingyue and continued to fill it with mung bean soup, saying, "I can't drink anymore."

Yingyue refused.

Huo Qing was very puzzled. "What's wrong?"

Yingyue explained, "Huo Cheng doesn't allow me to eat too many sweet things. Today I already ate popsicles, drank soda, and had mung bean soup. If I eat anything sweet again, my teeth will start to hurt."

Huo Qing...

Well, since her brother doesn't allow his wife to eat too many sweets, she can't go against his wishes.

"Then I won't drink it either."

"Keep the rest for my brother and the others."

Huo Qing spoke up.

Yingyue: "Your brother said he doesn't know when he'll be back tonight, so he told us to go to the cafeteria for dinner."

She is a ruthless relaying machine.

Huo Qing smiled and agreed, "Okay."

The two women, an aunt and a sister-in-law, were chatting at home when Liu Meiyu came over to them.

Wang Ju also came with her.

She fell into the water and it took her a while to recover after returning home. Once she recovered, she thought of coming to thank the people who saved her.

There wasn't anything particularly impressive about her home, but fortunately, she had plenty of fruits and vegetables growing in her yard. She picked a large basketful and also brought over half a bag of well-preserved sweet potatoes.

This is the first time Yingyue has received so many thank-you gifts.

She looked at the contents of the basket, unsure of what to do.

Liu Meiyu laughed from the side, "We owe a lot to Sister Yingyue today, otherwise Aunt Wang would have been in serious trouble."

Wang Ju chimed in, "Yes."

"Although I often say that living is a waste of food and I might as well die, I only realized when I was about to die that I still really wanted to live."

She said it somewhat shyly.

These words made Liu Meiyu and the other family members burst into laughter.

"It was really just a small favor."

Yingyue thought for a moment before speaking.

"Dr. Cheng, whether it was a small favor or something else, you saved my life."

Wang Ju, with a bold and forthright manner, was about to carry this basket of fruits and vegetables to Yingyue's kitchen.

She truly wanted to thank Yingyue.

If Yingyue doesn't accept it, it might make Wang Ju feel uncomfortable.

So she went forward and started carrying it herself.

"I can do it."

The basket, which Wang Ju struggled to move, was lifted by Yingyue with no effort at all, and carried to the kitchen.

People outside the courtyard gave her a thumbs up, praising Yingyue's strength.

"Dr. Cheng may look delicate, but she's surprisingly strong!"

"Yes! Dr. Cheng is so likable. If you weren't so busy with work every day, we would definitely be able to hang out together."

"Yes! I really enjoy talking to young women."

The family members took turns speaking.

Yingyue had no idea what was so praiseworthy about this.
