Chapter 217 Bait (Second Update)
When the two girls saw Fang Yuxin's appearance, their eyes flickered slightly, and a mixture of jealousy and cruel malice flashed across their eyes. But when Bai Ye turned his head, they looked at the handsome Bai Ye, their faces actually turned slightly red, and they looked at him greedily.
Fang Yuxin frowned and walked to Bai Ye, looking at the two girls with dissatisfaction: "I'm asking you a question? Why don't you answer? How can you keep staring at people like this?"
When Bai Ye heard this, even though he knew Fang Yuxin was acting and said this on purpose, his heart still trembled uncontrollably. Fang Yuxin's words gave him the illusion that she was jealous, and a sweet taste suddenly spread in his heart, but then it was followed by a sour taste brought by reason.
However, he had become accustomed to having a blank expression in front of outsiders, especially his enemies. He did not reveal his thoughts at all, only his face looked unhappy.
However, the two girls were dissatisfied with Fang Yuxin's attitude. Fang Yuxin's beautiful appearance and clean temperament made them very jealous. Almost at the moment they met, they developed hostility and evil thoughts towards her in their hearts, wishing to make her fall into a more miserable situation than themselves.
Fang Yuxin's attitude angered them. The younger girl with an oval face said dissatisfiedly, "I don't think he's looking at you. Don't be so self-indulgent!"
Fang Yuxin was not angry at her words, but Bai Ye frowned and his eyes gradually turned cold. Fang Yuxin saw that it was not good, and quickly said to Bai Ye: "Look at the attitude of these two people, they must have bad intentions, and you still want to ask them for directions."
Bai Ye heard Fang Yuxin's hint and knew that she wanted to continue the play, so he had to cooperate and said, "I didn't expect things to turn out like this. Besides, they don't seem to have any bad intentions. Did you misunderstand?"
As soon as he said this, the young girl with an oval face immediately said, "Of course we have no ill intentions! We live nearby and are very familiar with this area. When we saw you were stuck here, we thought you must be in trouble, so we came to help. We didn't expect to be mistaken for Lu Dongbin. Our kindness was not rewarded."
Bai Ye's expression suddenly became even uglier. This woman actually called Fang Yuxin a dog!
He couldn't help but get angry, but Fang Yuxin held his hand. He looked at Fang Yuxin with an ugly face, and wanted to say that he should just stop acting, but Fang Yuxin said: "You are not very old, why are you talking so harshly? Well, I misunderstood you, I am wrong. Are you really familiar with this area? Can you tell us where to take a detour to avoid this pitfall and get back to this highway?"
The girl with the oval face was already dissatisfied with Fang Yuxin, and she became proud when she heard it: "Didn't you think we were not good people just now? If that's the case, why should I show you the way?"
Fang Yuxin's face flushed, and she looked like she was very angry but didn't know how to refute. After a long while, she said, "Just tell me what you want. What do you want in exchange for showing us the way?"
The girl smiled smugly, her eyes fixed on Bai Ye, her eyes moving around smartly, but she refused to speak.
The atmosphere suddenly became tense.
Bai Ye glanced at Fang Yuxin and saw that she had no intention of speaking, so he said, "If you really know the way, tell us and we will reward you."
The girl was even happier when she heard him say that. She was about to say something else when the older girl next to her said, "Don't listen to her nonsense. We have no ill intentions. We just saw that you seemed to need help, so we came to see you. We just want to ask for directions. It's not a big deal. We don't need any reward or anything."
Her voice is soft and she speaks beautifully. Her pretty looks and dimples at the corners of her mouth make it easy for people to like her.
However, Fang Yuxin discovered that the girl's attention was more focused on Bai Ye, and she seemed to be very interested in Bai Ye.
She glanced at Bai Ye quickly and smiled meaningfully.
Bai Ye was helpless. Fang Yuxin refused to speak, so he could only say, "Thank you very much. If possible, can you draw a simple route map for us?"
The older girl immediately smiled apologetically and said softly, "It's not that I don't want to help you, but we both don't know how to draw a route map. How about this? We live not far from here, and there should be someone there who can draw a map. It's almost noon now, and you must be hungry after the long journey. Why don't you go to our place for lunch and rest before continuing on your way?"
In the end times, supplies were scarce, and many people were hungry. People on the road were on edge, and there was no way to rest in the suburbs. The bait thrown by the girl was probably a temptation that many survivors could not refuse.
She was obviously much smarter than the other girl. Her few simple words were so reasonable and logical that people couldn't bear to refuse her.
The people in the two teams became more alert. These people first set up roadblocks and then sent two little girls like this to invite them. It was obvious that they had no good intentions!
Bai Ye frowned in embarrassment: "You are really too polite, we are unworthy of it. Let's forget about lunch. If you can't draw, just tell us how to go."
Hearing that he was unwilling to go, the younger girl became a little anxious. She never expected that Bai Ye would refuse. She was about to say something, but the older girl immediately grabbed her wrist, stopping her from speaking. At the same time, she said sympathetically: "Our village has its own land and a lot of food stored. There are not many people, so food is not a problem at all. As for the route, I can tell you now. As you can see, the road here is blocked, so you have to retreat first..."
She pointed out the way in detail, and her explanation was extremely thorough, but the route was rather complicated, with many turns left and right, which made one feel dizzy.
Fang Yuxin and Bai Ye immediately cooperated and showed embarrassed and confused expressions, as if they didn't understand.
The girl watched this scene silently and continued, "The road network here is complex. Many people from other places are not familiar with it and it is easy to get lost, unless they have a map or ask someone for directions from time to time. But you also know that there are many zombies now, it is very chaotic, so the living people all live together and don't go out at all. If we don't go out to pick wild vegetables, we won't go out. Apart from us, you may not find anyone else around here."
Fang Yuxin and Bai Ye sneered in their hearts when they heard this. This person is really good at lying. What does "no one" mean? Don't they know that there are people watching around them?
Both of them looked embarrassed. Bai Ye hesitated and said to Fang Yuxin: "How about... let's go to where they live and take a look?"
Fang Yuxin deliberately rubbed her belly, but looked at the two girls suspiciously, and said hesitantly: "How do you know they are good people? What if they are bad people?"
Her voice was neither too loud nor too soft, just enough for the two girls to hear. The younger girl immediately became angry and looked at Fang Yuxin with dissatisfaction. The older girl looked at Bai Ye with a hurt expression, expressing her grievances with her eyes.
This trick of hers has always worked well against men, but Bai Ye seemed to be clueless and remained silent.
Fang Yuxin had no choice but to use her spiritual consciousness to remind Bai Ye: "The time is almost right, you should agree to it quickly." She deliberately made this scene with Bai Ye just to dispel these people's suspicions and make them let down their guard.
After all, it was the end of the world and everyone was very alert. If they showed enthusiasm and no suspicion as soon as the other party appeared, the other party would be suspicious of them instead.
Bai Ye didn't want to agree at first. He was not a fool. How could he not see the calculations of the two girls? If he agreed, wouldn't it be like slapping Fang Yuxin in the face in public and not giving her face?
He didn't want to lose face for Fang Yuxin because of these two inexplicable women, even if it was just a show. But Fang Yuxin kept urging him, so he could only say unhappily: "Aren't you hungry? We don't have much food anymore. Let's go to where they live and see if we can exchange some food, then we don't have to worry about food on the rest of the journey."
Fang Yuxin looked at Bai Ye with amusement. Bai Ye actually had a lot of food in his car, which was easy to carry and filling, and was bought from a safe store. Fang Yuxin deliberately asked him in a voice transmission: "What are you going to do with the food in your car?"
Bai Ye's face froze. Fang Yuxin's teasing words made him not know how to respond.
Fang Yuxin, however, has already started to cooperate: "Then let's go and take a look." His face is full of reluctance.
The two girls subconsciously glanced at her stomach. Because of Fang Yuxin's action of rubbing her stomach just now and Bai Ye's words, they subconsciously thought that Fang Yuxin was starving.
The older girl said sympathetically, "Are you starving, sister? Don't worry, we have plenty of food where we live, so it's no problem to treat you. Are you going to leave now? I'll trouble you to take us back."
As she said this, she kept looking at the three SUVs, wondering which one to get on.
At this time, Chen Qiao suddenly opened the car door and waved to them attentively: "Two beauties, please sit here, we just happen to have seats here!"
Chen Qiao was handsome, but he was nothing compared to Bai Ye. After seeing Bai Ye's appearance, how could the two girls still like him?
The older girl hesitated for a moment, as if she didn't know which one to take. The younger girl didn't have this concern, and pulled her towards Bai Ye, saying enthusiastically as she walked, "Let's go with you."
However, Bai Ye directly refused and said, "There are no seats left in our car, you can take that one." Then he pointed to Chen Qiao's car.
