For some reason, Jiang Tangtang inexplicably thought of Fang Mingming, who had left with her parents a couple of days ago.
With mixed feelings, she said, "Could it be that something happened to Fang Mingming?"
Lu Shiyan turned to look at her and said, "Are you worried about him?"
Jiang Tangtang nodded, admitting that she was indeed a little worried.
But she did not regret punishing Lu Cuilan and Fang Mulin. The two of them were capable of such evil deeds simply because they did not help to rescue people. If they were left in the valley, they would be a menace sooner or later.
Ultimately, it was a mistake made by the two of them, and had nothing to do with the child. Moreover, perhaps because she has developed some feelings for Lu Chenyan now, she always seems to have a softer side towards the child.
Lu Shiyan was silent for a moment, then picked up Lu Chenyan and looked at Jiang Tangtang, saying, "I'll take you with me."
Without waiting for Jiang Tangtang's reply, he reached his large hand through Jiang Tangtang's waist, and with one arm around Lu Chenyan and the other around Jiang Tangtang, he ran out.
Lu Chenyan felt the shadows of the trees around him rushing past, and his eyes shone brighter than ever before.
The deeper you go into the forest, the fiercer the roars of wild beasts become, and the air is filled with a strong stench of blood.
Jiang Tangtang unconsciously leaned against Lu Shiyan, feeling his taut muscles and hot body, which slightly dispelled the fear in her heart.
Lu Shiyan tried his best to keep his body straight and not let his mind wander. When they passed a huge ancient tree, he stopped and placed the two of them on a large branch, saying, "Wait for me here, I'll be right back."
Although she couldn't see what was ahead, the stench of blood was stronger than before, and the cries of wild beasts were closer. Jiang Tangtang guessed that the wild beast rampage was not far from here.
In that situation, she and Lu Chenyan would only be a burden to him, unable to help him.
She nodded obediently and said, "Husband, be careful."
Lu Shiyan gave a soft "hmm," handed the dagger he carried to Jiang Tangtang, and then leaped down from the tree.
In the blink of an eye, they disappeared into the woods.
Jiang Tangtang turned her head and saw her son's eyes sparkling, his face full of admiration.
Jiang Tangtang felt nervous, so she tried to distract him by teasing him, "Isn't Daddy amazing?"
"sharp!"
The child's voice was so cute, soft and adorable. Jiang Tangtang really wanted to rub his face.
Unfortunately, she was sitting on a tree branch and dared not move easily. She could only continue teasing him, "Do you want to be as powerful as Daddy?"
Lu Chenyan tilted his head to look at her, seemingly deep in thought. After a short while, he asked timidly, "Is it alright?"
Jiang Tangtang found his appearance increasingly adorable, and she laughed, "Why not? If you want to learn kung fu, you can ask Daddy to teach you!"
Lu Chenyan asked expectantly, "Then will I be able to fly in the future?"
Jiang Tangtang thought for a moment and said, "Probably! But it might have to wait until you're a little older. You're still too young now."
As they were talking, she heard a rumbling sound coming from his stomach.
None of them had eaten before leaving.
She had originally planned to roast a few duck eggs to fill her stomach, but unexpectedly, another accident occurred, and she ended up in the mountains.
She, an adult, was hungry, let alone a child.
Jiang Tangtang thought for a moment, took out a piece of brown sugar from her spatial storage, and put it in his mouth, saying, "Have something to eat first, and when Daddy comes back, we'll go eat eggs."
As soon as Lu Chenyan put the brown sugar in his mouth, he felt an unprecedented sweetness.
This feels completely different from honey water.
He wanted to swallow the candy whole, but he couldn't bear to. In the end, he reluctantly took the candy out of his mouth, wanting to share it with Jiang Tangtang.
"Mom, there's more! Eat up!"
Lu Chenyan didn't believe it and insisted that Jiang Tangtang eat it too.
Jiang Tangtang couldn't resist and finally took a small bite of the crumbs. As expected of a system product, it had the unique sandy texture of brown sugar and a very rich brown sugar flavor.
After Jiang Tangtang ate, Lu Chenyan began to eat in small bites. After a while, she handed the brown sugar to Jiang Tangtang and asked her to eat it.
Although the brown sugar produced by the system is absolutely the best of the best.
But eating it like this is really delicious and satisfying.
Jiang Tangtang felt like drinking water after eating.
To prove she still had some, she had to take out another piece of brown sugar from the system's storage space.
"See, Mom didn't lie to you! Hurry up and eat! I don't want to eat right now, I'll eat when I feel like it."
Only after Jiang Tangtang said that did Lu Chenyan focus on eating the candy in his hand.
The little guy eats candy very seriously, as if he is savoring the most delicious food in the world, carefully remembering the taste of every bite.
Looking at the little guy's adorable appearance, Jiang Tangtang couldn't resist feeding him. So, taking advantage of her free time, she started calculating all her scores with the system.
The character value and the heart-fluttering value did not progress rapidly, but the career score rose sharply.
So Jiang Tangtang took out a portion and activated the random reward.
Looking at the random reward, Jiang Tangtang was a little angry, feeling that the system was increasingly treating her like a fool. [What is this dark thing?]
[Host, don't underestimate this thing. It may look unremarkable, but it's a top-quality tinderbox.]
Jiang Tangtang's expression softened slightly; this was indeed what she needed. However, now that she understood the system's nature, she deliberately said, "[I spent so many points, and all I got was a tinderbox?]"
[This is no ordinary tinderbox. It can still be used even after being soaked in water. Moreover, it can be used tens of thousands of times. With this tinderbox, you will never have to worry about fire for the rest of your life. Host, would you like to claim it now, or would you like it stored away for you first?]
Jiang Tangtang glanced at Lu Chenyan, who was engrossed in eating candy and completely oblivious to her presence. She decided to take out the magical tinderbox and examine it first.
She chose to receive it, and instantly, a heavy object appeared in her hand, which was hidden under her clothes.
Just as she was about to take it out for a closer look, she heard a wolf howl. The howl sounded very close to her.
She immediately clung tightly to the tree trunk in a panic.
Lu Chenyan also stopped eating the candy and looked down at the tree with a mixture of curiosity and fear.
"Don't move." Jiang Tangtang was startled by his movement, afraid he would fall from the tree branch. She adjusted her position and pulled him into her arms. She prayed anxiously that Lu Shiyan would be safe and sound and return soon.
