Chapter 260 Love Acting
He quickly glanced at Ji Changqing beside him.
Seeing that the people around him had calm expressions, they looked at the bearded man indifferently, with no intention of speaking.
He Rui thought for a second, then raised his chin and said arrogantly to the bearded man, "Quite smart! You guessed it! It was our people who did it. And it's not just this one car, we have a whole fleet of seven or eight."
He lied without hesitation, but was afraid that if he told too much, the other party would not believe him, so he just cursed again.
"None of your business! Get lost!"
As he said this, he swung his baton to scare the other person and tried to drive him away.
The bearded man's eyes were surprisingly bright and he looked at them with fiery eyes.
"Really you guys??? Then, did you come out of that country-built base?"
The other party passed the message to him, and He Rui followed what the person said and continued, "Indeed, we came out of the government shelter.
Which direction did you come from? Didn't you run into our convoy?"
He Rui made up such a story that he almost believed it himself.
"Shelter? A convoy?" The man's eyes lit up. "That's impressive, but...why is your car parked here?"
He Rui's attitude became harsh again, and he continued to confront the other party, "What do you think? The car is not broken, so why should we stop here? It broke down! You are so curious, get out of the way! Don't bother me, I warn you! I've told you enough! If you say another word, I will shoot you."
The bearded man didn't care about his bad attitude at this moment. He looked at them hopefully, "So, your friends, the convoy, aren't they coming to pick you up? Where exactly is our government shelter? I'm a local, too. Little brothers, please take me there too! Please, both of you, help me. I'll remember your kindness forever!"
Hu Zi addressed him with great respect and placed his hopes on him eagerly.
He Rui suddenly felt a little worried, thinking, is it appropriate to fool others like this?
The main thing is that he shouldn't have followed this man's advice and talked nonsense about the shelter.
But on second thought, He Rui remembered that his brother Ji seemed to really know the location of the shelter, and thought, why not ask his brother Tietie to show the man the way?
Although his thoughts had changed, his outward attitude remained unchanged, and he continued in a harsh tone, "Why should I tell you this? Will you give me supplies?
Bring me a few dozen kilograms of food in exchange! I'll consider whether to tell you or not."
After saying that, he took the time to turn around and look at his brother Ji, and found that the other party also turned his head and looked at him.
The other person's eyes were gentle and there was a faint smile on his face.
Then, He Rui discovered that this person's expression and temperament changed in an instant. He suddenly seemed like a different person, revealing an unusual expression.
His brother Ji seemed to have the eight big words "clear, innocent, simple and harmless" written on his face.
His eyes were indescribably clean and gentle.
The tone of his voice was also different from usual, becoming inexplicably warm, with an indescribable scent of white lotus.
"Should we help him?" Ji Changqing said gently.
As soon as he opened his mouth, He Rui was stunned.
"Huh?" He asked in genuine confusion.
It feels like Ji Changqing is learning from him and also showing off his acting skills.
He Rui immediately realized that the other party was probably cooperating with him and playing the good guy.
He secretly gave him a thumbs up in his heart, thinking that he was indeed a very loyal person.
Instead of being bothered by him, she assisted him and acted along with him.
His brother Ji is the right one!
Upon hearing this, the bearded man wanted to get closer to Ji Changqing and talk to him immediately, as if he had seen a relative.
But He Rui simply couldn't bear to see the homeless man with tangled hair who hadn't showered for at least three months approaching his clean and fragrant Brother Ji.
He was worried that the other party would get too excited and go to hug his brother Ji. If there were lice on his head, it would easily stain his heart.
He Rui took a step forward, using himself as a shield to protect his elder brother firmly behind him.
"Don't you understand what I'm saying?! Get out of the way!" He said in an angry tone.
No matter how well the bearded man pretended to be, at this moment, he couldn't help but feel annoyed by his constant nitpicking.
He Rui could see that the bearded man was trying his best to suppress his anger and maintain a smile.
Ji Changqing, who was standing behind him, walked out from his protective position, took a step forward, and spoke to the man gently, "I'm sorry, our convoy won't be returning. As for the location of the shelter, I can tell you."
He Rui turned his head and stared at his brother, thinking that this guy was quite willing to act.
Out of the corner of his eye, he noticed the enthusiastic look in the bearded man's eyes, as if he had met his own brother, and he looked so eager that he wanted to hug his brother Ji and kiss him.
He Rui was quite disgusted and felt it was extremely annoying.
He grabbed his brother Ji's wrist and pulled him behind him. He stood between the two of them like a protective child, scolding Ji Changqing and retorting, "Why do you care about him? You are just too kind-hearted."
Finished.
He Rui had the illusion that he was scolding himself.
It felt like their situation at this moment was a bit like when his brother Ji was teaching him. Their positions were reversed.
However, Brother Ji rarely speaks hurtfully, his tone is gentle, and his words are polite.
Unlike him, he speaks very harshly.
Although He Rui adjusted his position to stand in the middle, he prevented the two people in front and behind from getting together.
But the bearded man still spoke warmly to his brother Ji through him.
"Handsome, are you guys really not coming back? Then what are you two doing here? Repairing the car?
How about you guys give me a ride after you fix the car?"
A disgusted sneer escaped He Rui's throat, and he pointed the baton at the other person's face again, "Don't be shameless! What the hell? Are you just trying to climb on the ladder?"
The BGM in his mind was so disgusting by that guy that he automatically changed the song.
Hu Zi was forced to stagger back two steps by his baton and began to complain to Brother Ji.
"Just by looking at your clothes, I know you two definitely don't understand what life is like for us ordinary people out there. It's really hard for me. I've lost everyone in my family...
My life has been really tough, and I really want to live in a shelter. There are two of my friends there, so please, could you give us a ride? That car will definitely fit all three of us.
I really don’t ask for much, just send it over.”
He Rui unexpectedly discovered that this person didn't seem to be just trying to gain sympathy.
But it was a genuine feeling of grievance.
Of course, just one look at the other person's appearance and you'll know that this guy is indeed a person who has been tortured by life and disasters.
He Rui felt a little soft-hearted.
But he quickly calmed down.
Who isn't suffering these days? It seems that apart from him, most of the survivors without abilities must be living a miserable life.
Even Jiang Sheng before, and his brother Ji.
It's not easy for any one of us either.
Whether the car can be repaired is secondary.
The most important thing is that the other party was a young and middle-aged man, and he didn't look so hungry that he couldn't walk or speak.
The original purpose of going out was to let Brother Ji move his location, look for mutant creatures, and expand his territory.
With this little bit of compassion, would he go and send someone off before he even sets out?
The oil is not enough and he will use it up after a few trips... What's more, this person gave him a bad impression. He didn't want to get along with this person as he felt that he would be tainted by him.
