Chapter 337 A Friend in Trouble
Durian egg tarts, durian pastry, durian purple potato balls, durian mille-feuille, and durian crystal rice dumplings.
Several sweet and fragrant desserts were placed on the table, making the people around them drool. They were obviously eating delicious food in their mouths, but compared with the cute and sweet desserts on the next table, they suddenly felt that the meat in their mouths was not fragrant.
Especially children and women.
A month ago, they couldn't even think about having enough to eat, but now they actually disdain the delicious meat and start craving desserts that they have never seen or even heard of.
It can be seen that their lives have become much better after becoming villagers in the global village.
Therefore, the village chief Yun Qimu was highly respected by them, and for a while no one dared to come to their table to watch.
They don’t dare, but Dongfang Ji dares.
He worked hard all day and finally earned some spirit coins. He suppressed his grief and planned to take people out for a good meal. Of course, he had to go for the best food in the store.
As soon as he saw the table full of exquisite and beautiful desserts from Yun Qimu and the others, he couldn't help but take a step forward. But as he approached Dongfang Ji, his face changed, and he immediately covered his nose and hurriedly retreated.
Obviously, he was "suffocated" by the strong smell of durian.
He doesn't like the taste of durian, so no matter how good the dessert looks, he can only miss it with regret.
In contrast to him is Tang Liangjun, whose eyes on his thin and handsome face are almost falling into the dessert plate.
Yun Qimu glanced at him, raised his eyebrows and smiled, "Want to eat?"
Tang Liangjun looked at the durian pastry eagerly and nodded very honestly, "Yeah, I want to eat it."
Yun Qimu curled his lips and smiled, "Then you can tell us a fortune and see when it's best for us to enter the Demon Refining Pot and fight monsters. How about I give you two of each?"
Tang Liangjun's eyes suddenly lit up, and he completely forgot the rule he had set over the past two days of not telling fortunes after closing the stall. He immediately took out a tortoise shell and prepared to tell fortunes.
Because he was very unlucky, Wu Xingyu, whose luck had increased after meeting Yunqi Mu, still believed in this. He winked and asked Du Luke to make room for him, and then stared at Tang Liangjun.
But before Tang Liangjun could figure out what was going on, the communicator he was carrying rang, and the name on it was his father's.
Wu Xingyu frowned, and Yun Qimu subconsciously leaned over to take a look, raised an eyebrow, and said with a smile, "I'll just watch from here. I'll tell you when the results come out. You go and take it."
Seeing that Wu Xingyu's brows were still furrowed, she blinked again and added, "Don't worry, I asked the kitchen to make two more desserts. One for my little brother and dad, and the other for you."
This put him on the same level as her father and brother. Wu Xingyu looked at her delicate smiling eyes and couldn't help but feel excited.
He suppressed the curve of his lips and responded in a low voice, "Well, I'll go then."
After saying that, he picked up the communicator and strode out. It was obvious that it was not appropriate to communicate with his father in such a public place.
When he finished the call and came back with a frown, Tang Liangjun had already finished his calculations and all the desserts on the table had been cleared away.
Fortunately, Yun Qimu had asked the kitchen to prepare two more servings, so Wu Xingyu looked at the CD on the table and didn't show any anger towards Branno and the others who were full and satisfied. Instead, he happily asked them to disperse and go back to rest.
He and Yun Qimu went to the kitchen to get two desserts under the envious and jealous eyes of Branno and others, and walked and talked with Yun Qimu in the snow under the moonlight.
"How's the fortune-telling going?"
Walking on the rustling snow, Wu Xingyu carefully raised a large black umbrella to shield Yun Qimu from the falling snow, and asked in a low and gentle voice.
Yun Qimu looked at his slender fingers gripping the black umbrella handle. His voice was a bit nonchalant, and there was a hint of a smile in his eyes. "They say we'll gain the most if we go in the night after tomorrow."
Wu Xingyu pursed her lips and said, "Well, it's just right for me to rest for two days."
"Besides that, he also included a piece of news, saying that your friend is in trouble. But after saying this, Tang Liangjun's face turned pale. He couldn't explain what kind of trouble it was or what friend it was. He couldn't say anything more specific."
Yun Qimu slowed down her voice and frowned slightly. Although she was a little worried, he was not her friend after all, so she didn't pay much attention to it.
But Wu Xingyu's grip on the umbrella handle suddenly tightened, and veins on his wrist bulged.
Yun Qimu noticed it and looked up in surprise, "Did you know? Is he an important friend?"
Wu Xingyu's deep, dark eyes darkened slightly. "It's the two siblings from the Earl's Mansion, the Jin family, who are my subordinates, and my fourth brother. Father just reported that they were using the Jin family's warship to use SSS-level spatial abilities to rescue me, but they've lost contact now. Besides that, your eldest brother, Yun Qichen, is also on the warship."
"My elder brother—" Yun Qimu's calm face suddenly became turbulent, and her beautiful eyes widened in disbelief.
After she woke up from this body, she was on a spaceship flying to the Exile Star. She had never seen her elder brother Yun Qichen, but she had a very deep memory of him.
In the previous seventeen years, apart from her parents, her eldest brother Yun Qichen appeared in her memory the most times and most profoundly, so profoundly that it seemed as if she was the real Yun Qimu, the young lady of the Yun family who was in a coma for many years, confused when she woke up, and was rumored to be a fool by the outside world.
It was like she was feeling the care and concern from her parents, older brother and younger brother, and it was she who was talking to them.
Shaking off these thoughts, Yun Qimu frowned and became worried.
"Losing contact. Where did you lose contact?"
Wu Xingyu held her hand soothingly, and when he saw that she didn't pull it back, his heart softened.
Then he glanced guiltily to the side, lowered his voice, and said calmly, "He's in the outer star field outside the Exile Star. He lost contact three days ago. My father has sent people to look for him, but it will take some time for him to get here, so he contacted me and asked me to check it out."
He originally didn't take the loss of contact seriously. The Jin family's warships had high-end configurations and powerful weapons, so ordinary warships couldn't do anything to them.
Besides, his elder and second brothers didn't know about him at that time, and would not tamper with the battleship. At worst, they encountered interstellar pirates, or lost contact due to magnetic field problems.
After all, the magnetic field of Exile Star is special and can easily affect the surrounding star fields.
But now with Tang Liangjun's news, things are different.
"I'll take some people out to check it out later. It just so happens that the landing point for the other end of the Kunlun Mirror hasn't been chosen yet, so I'll take care of this as well."
Wu Xingyu tried his best to keep his tone calm and casual, as if it was a trivial matter, and Yun Qimu was indeed not so panicked anymore.
She raised the corners of her lips towards Wu Xingyu and smiled, "Then let's go without further delay. I'll go with you."
