Her voice was strong and resolute, stubborn yet restrained, as if she didn't want her boss to be wronged by others, and tears streamed down her cheeks.
Xu Hu stared in astonishment at the woman who was crying her eyes out, and quickly changed the subject, "Alright! Duo'er! Stop talking! This was my fault, and I'm willing to accept the punishment!"
"No, no, the boss is already injured! He can't be punished. Punish me instead! I'll take the boss's place!"
The lackey, as if he had made up his mind, took a step forward with trepidation and protected the tall and burly Xu Hu.
Xu Hu was taken aback. For the first time, he seriously looked at the only two girls in the team. He had been focusing his attention on the proud Yang Xue and had completely overlooked this little white rabbit who was devoted to him.
He did accidentally cut his arm while driving, and he had almost forgotten about the wound.
"Duo'er!"
"Captain! Don't shoulder everything yourself. I'm your teammate, and I'm willing to!"
Those around her looked as if they were watching a melodramatic soap opera, their expressions varied.
They don't seem to think they're being cool, do they?
Chen Chao coughed awkwardly twice. "We'll investigate who's responsible later. Now tell me, where did you just go? Why are there so many zombies?"
The two people, who thought they had changed the subject, suddenly became as shy as quails.
The little follower trembled, as if she were afraid of something, her eyes constantly darting away.
"I...I don't know...I don't know anything!"
Suddenly, one of the onlookers shouted, "Hurry up and tell us! We're all waiting to eat!"
Xu Hu tenderly pulled the woman into his arms. "Duo'er, don't be afraid. It was my fault. I'll take them there!"
"No, no! It wasn't the captain who led us there, it was Xiao Hei, it was him. He said there must be supplies in those houses, and he didn't want to keep eating these compressed biscuits, so he insisted on going!"
The boss disagreed, so he grabbed the steering wheel. The boss only stopped the car for our sake!
"Afterwards, because the car stopped, Sister Xiaoxue and Brother Xiaohei rushed into the house, and the captain, worried about their safety, led us down to find them!"
Lin Yu grinned, "So, you guys each packed a bag of supplies too? You've got some free time, huh!"
"Shut the hell up!"
Xu Hu glared angrily at Lin Yu, who was making sarcastic remarks.
"Look, he's getting desperate! It was clearly his own idea, but he's trying to shift the blame onto someone who's already dead. How pathetic!"
Gu Chen had a look of amusement on his face, and the words he said almost made the two of them furious.
"Yeah! If it were really like what they said, why would they be so angry? It can't be fake, can it?"
"I think so too. Look, Xu Hu is already hugging that woman. Who knows if they're really in that kind of relationship? He's getting all worked up over this! It's definitely fake!"
"You tell me, it's impossible. They killed those two people, and now they're just putting on an act!"
"Oh my god! If that's really the case, it's terrifying! I'll never dare to walk with them again!"
"......"
"You! You! Shut up! It's not like what you're saying! If you don't believe me, ask him! Him, and them!"
Xu Hu angrily pointed at the other members of the group, his eyes filled with a threat that others could not see.
"Yes! What the captain said is all true! It really is! They both asked for it."
The three people behind him nodded quickly, echoing his sentiments.
Knowing he wouldn't get any information, Chen Chao waved his hand and raised his voice, "We'll rest here today. Everyone can make their own arrangements. Dinner will be served later."
"good!"
"Thank you for your hard work, Base Commander!"
"......"
As the crowd dispersed, the little follower seemed unable to hold on any longer and collapsed into Xu Hu's arms.
"Duo'er! Duo'er! What's wrong?"
Yang Duo's voice was weak, and her eyes were filled with tears, "I'm sorry, Captain, I made them misunderstand!"
"It's not your fault, Duo'er! Don't cry, Tiger Brother will take you back to the car."
Xu Hu hurriedly picked up the petite woman, and before leaving, he turned back to remind her, "Hurry up and set up the tent. We don't need to go get those things later, let's eat something good!"
"Yes, Captain!"
The four people went from being afraid and nervous to excited and thrilled.
They can finally stop eating hard compressed biscuits, that's great!
After everyone finished their work, they sat at the tent entrance, munching on the only two compressed biscuits they had. Suddenly, a rich aroma wafted over.
Everyone's used to it; it's probably Lin Anran's family having a good meal again. I wonder what kind of food they'll send over this time.
They looked expectantly at the large tent. Wait, they hadn't eaten yet! Whose food was that? It smelled so good!
"It's Xu Hu and his group! They're actually eating self-heating rice, braised pork, and cured meat!"
"My God! They're actually drinking beer!"
Everyone swallowed hard; they had almost forgotten what beer tasted like!
Then their attention was drawn to a table full of snacks, including various packaged snacks, as well as a variety of drinks and yogurt.
"How do they have so much food!"
"That was earned with the lives of my teammates. If it were me, I wouldn't be in the mood to eat it!"
"Yes! They're really heartless. Their team member just died because of this, and now they're eating so happily. Their hearts are black!"
Before the man could finish speaking, he looked awkwardly at the thin woman who was walking towards him.
Yang Duo, clutching a bag of snacks, smiled innocently, "This, this is what our boss gave you, thank you for coming to rescue us this afternoon!"
"No, you're welcome!"
The man scratched his head awkwardly, but his eyes remained fixed on the stack of snacks.
"Here you go! You've worked hard!"
After saying that, she ran away shyly!
"Well! Actually, I think she's a pretty good person!"
"Yes! That's so generous! Great! We'll get an extra meal today!"
Embarrassed, everyone frantically searched for stairs to go down, their hands constantly moving as they tried to gather their belongings into their arms.
Lin Yu got out of the car and couldn't help but complain, "They really know how to play the game. They used the supplies obtained by risking their teammates' lives to solidify their relationships. Their calculations are so outrageous!"
Lin Anran tapped the big head in front of her with her chopsticks. "You're blocking my way!"
"Oh! Sis? Aren't you worried?"
"What's there to worry about? Can they always be so generous?"
"impossible!"
"That's terrible! If they even get started, can they possibly stop? Even if they really disappear, would those people be willing to accept it? Would they believe it?"
