Chapter 234 Wishful Thinking (First Update)
Although Feng Yue likes Li Ranqiu, he is not a fool! Li Ranqiu's eyes are almost glued to Bai Ye. Unless he is blind, he can't see that there is something wrong!
People are like this. When they don't notice the problem, they are kept in the dark like fools, but once they notice it, they will become extremely sensitive. Feng Yue kept staring at Li Ranqiu and soon found out that she had set her mind on Bai Ye!
This bitch!
Feng Yue cursed in his heart. He was angry at Li Ranqiu for not keeping her husband's promise, and he also felt a little resentful towards Bai Ye. But he was not a fool. Even though he was dissatisfied, he never thought of taking it out on Bai Ye. After all, Bai Ye had not shown anything to Li Ranqiu. It was Li Ranqiu who was just being sentimental.
When Meng Qingluo spoke, he was actually relieved. After all, Li Ranqiu was pregnant with his child, and he didn't want to do anything to hurt this woman unless it was absolutely necessary. Meng Qingluo deliberately pointed out that she was pregnant, so Li Ranqiu naturally couldn't have any thoughts about Bai Ye anymore.
But he didn't expect that Li Ranqiu could be so shameless! She actually refused to admit that she was pregnant!
Feng Yue was both angry and anxious. He was angry at Li Ranqiu's shamelessness, but also worried that she was really not pregnant and was lying to him about her pregnancy.
After thinking about it, he felt that he couldn't let Li Ranqiu stay any longer, so he said, "Ranqiu, you are pregnant now, and your body is not in good condition. You should go home and rest first, so as not to tire the baby in your belly."
When Li Ranqiu heard this, her beautiful face instantly froze, and even distorted a little. Although it was only for a moment, this scene was seen by everyone, including Feng Yue.
Feng Yue was getting angrier and angrier, and at the same time, he was very disappointed with Li Ranqiu. Li Ranqiu was pregnant with his first child, and even though it was the end of the world, he was still happy and looking forward to it, thinking about practicing well and doing his best to provide her with the best conditions so that she could give birth to the child.
But now he discovered that Li Ranqiu didn't care about the baby in her belly at all!
This made him feel extremely angry. He didn't even want to believe that this woman whom he had always held in the palm of his hand could be so fickle. She even ignored the child in her belly in order to seduce a man who was stronger than him!
Just at this moment, Meng Qingluo continued, "Pregnancy is a great joy, and you have only been pregnant for a short time, you are in the dangerous period, you should be careful. By the way, you have light makeup on your face, and makeup contains heavy metals. If the mother wears makeup, it is very likely to be absorbed by the fetus, which is very harmful to the development of the fetus. You should be more careful in the future."
When she said this, Li Ranqiu was immediately embarrassed and wanted to find a hole to crawl into. Feng Yue looked at her coldly with an ugly expression.
He was a rough man, had never been married, and naturally didn't know what concerns pregnant women had during pregnancy. So when he saw Li Ranqiu putting on makeup before, although he felt it was very troublesome, he didn't get angry. But after listening to Meng Qingluo's words, he felt again that this woman didn't care about the baby in her belly at all!
Otherwise, why would she wear makeup when she was pregnant?
Feng Yue actually wronged Li Ranqiu. She hadn't even graduated yet, so how could she know the taboos during pregnancy? If Meng Qingluo hadn't mentioned it on purpose, she wouldn't have known there was such a saying!
Meng Qingluo said this deliberately, of course, she had no good intentions. She had always liked Bai Ye, and it was fine that she couldn't compete with Fang Yuxin, but who was this woman? How dare she covet her elder brother? If she didn't teach her a lesson, she would be doing herself a disservice!
She had been paying attention to Feng Yue's expression. Seeing his face turn pale and his eyes red, she knew that he had taken her words to heart, so she deliberately raised the corners of her mouth and smiled in front of Li Ranqiu.
Li Ranqiu had actually noticed Feng Yue's expression a long time ago, but she had been pretending not to notice it. She knew very well that her actions had angered Feng Yue, so this might be her last chance. Once she lost it, she would never be able to leave again!
Originally, she wanted to capture Bai Ye's heart with her beauty. Feng Yue couldn't afford to offend this man. If he asked for someone, Feng Yue would definitely not dare to refuse. But she didn't expect that Bai Ye didn't even look at her, and the woman behind him kept making things difficult for her! Li Ranqiu kept cursing Meng Qingluo in her heart for meddling in other people's business. She felt Feng Yue's increasingly cold and sharp eyes, and realized very clearly that she had to do something, otherwise she would never have another chance!
So she gritted her teeth, forced out tears, and knelt directly in front of Bai Ye. She looked up at him pitifully and said sadly, "Brother, please save me! Feng Yue is not a human being at all. He will kill me!"
She had already offended Feng Yue. Once these distinguished guests left, Feng Yue would definitely not let her go! In that case, she might as well fight for herself! However, this time she did not put all her hopes on Bai Ye. While speaking, she turned her eyes and looked at other people.
Then, she found Fang Yuyang and Fang Jintang. Both of them were handsome and not much inferior to Bai Ye. However, they both had beautiful women by their side, so they might not help easily.
Li Ranqiu quickly looked at everyone, but she didn't expect that these people were indifferent and had no sympathy or pity for her at all!
This is unscientific!
She was beautiful and had been the school belle since she was a child. The male classmates took good care of her. Often, as long as she acted coquettishly or frowned, someone would take the initiative to help her. At the beginning, Feng Yue was moved by her pity and gentleness, and he had been carefully protecting her.
But now, this trick doesn't work! Is it that her charm has declined, or are these people all unromantic?
Li Ranqiu didn't want to believe that her charm had declined, so she subconsciously thought that it must be the people in front of her who didn't understand romance!
At the same time, she looked at Qu Qianhe, Fang Yuxin, Shang Jinxiu and Meng Qingluo calmly. These four were all beautiful women, but they were all fierce. How could they look like women? She didn't believe that these men would prefer tomboys like them!
So she said quickly: "My home is in Bei City. I lost contact with my family after the end of the world, and I don't know what happened to my parents. Please save me. If you can take me back to Bei City, I will definitely let my parents repay you!"
This might have been useful before the end of the world, after all, her family was well-off, and the reward she offered would definitely not be low. But now it was the end of the world, and all the money she had in the past had become waste paper, and food and crystal cores had become the most precious things. Her parents must be quite old, and even if they were lucky enough to survive, what kind of decent reward could they offer?
Therefore, Bai Ye and others sneered at Li Ranqiu's words. They were not fools and could not see Li Ranqiu's calculations. Even if Li Ranqiu was just a single woman, they would not take a burden like her into the team, not to mention that she was obviously Feng Yue's woman and was now pregnant. They were not crazy, so how could they take her away?
Everyone subconsciously looked at Feng Yue's face, and they saw that he was so angry that his face turned black. Everyone mourned for him in their hearts, and felt that this man was really unlucky.
But since something like this happened, it was inconvenient for them to stay any longer.
Bai Ye took the initiative to speak: "It's getting late, we still have to hurry, is the route map ready?"
Feng Yue was actually hoping that they would leave quickly to avoid further embarrassment. He stepped forward and grabbed Li Ranqiu. Before she could speak, he chopped her neck with a knife, knocking her unconscious. Then Feng Yue said, "Don't worry, the things will be ready soon!"
Just at this moment, someone hurried over to report that the meal was ready. Feng Yue simply asked someone to take Bai Ye and the others over, and he first took Li Ranqiu home, then sent someone to look after her, and then hurried to the dining area to entertain Bai Ye and the others.
To show his sincerity, he specially found some good wine. Everyone drank a little, but they didn't drink too much. The bottle of wine was soon finished. The meal that Feng Yue had people prepare was quite sumptuous. Not only did it have meat and vegetables, but it also had some soaked mountain delicacies. However, apart from the stored potatoes, sweet potatoes, and cabbage, there were no other fresh vegetables, and the taste was incomparable to what Fang Yuxin made.
When they were out, Fang Yuxin and the others did not mind eating. They quickly filled their stomachs and then said goodbye.
Feng Yue had already prepared all the things that had been agreed upon. Seeing that Fang Yuxin and the others were about to leave, he did not dare to keep them, but personally handed the things to Bai Ye. Fang Yuxin hesitated for a moment, but still told him the mental method of the Qi-nourishing Art, and at the same time, he knocked on the door for a while, then said goodbye to Feng Yue and set off again.
After they left, Feng Yue immediately put away the smile on his face. He called his confidants and ordered, "Register all the people in the base again. Those with special skills will be assigned separately. The remaining young and strong people, regardless of gender, will all be incorporated into the guard team. You will have half a day to complete this task. Tomorrow, everyone will start training!"
After saying that, he rubbed his face vigorously. He wanted to build the base, so he couldn't just focus on cultivation like before. Besides, Fang Yuxin gave him such a big gift. If he didn't make good use of it, wouldn't it be a waste of a good thing?
Although he was greedy, he also knew that it was difficult to support the situation alone. There were not only zombies outside, but also mutant creatures. He could not do it alone! He had to train his people into a strong army in order to survive better!
After making the arrangements, he walked quickly towards home. Li Ranqiu had made him lose face so much, and even dreamed of abandoning him to climb up the social ladder. This matter could not be let go like this!
This woman had been praised by him for too long, and she might have forgotten her own identity. He had to help her face the reality! Let her understand what should be done and what should not be done!
I don’t know if anyone will think that this is too cruel to Li Ranqiu. I’ll take the blame first.
