Chapter 46 I'm Worth More Than Five Million
Lu Yuqi looked at the flock of sheep in front of him and the obvious farmland in the distance and fell into deep thought. He was not sure whether he was still within the hunting ground. The flock of sheep in front of him were not afraid of people. They did not react when Lu Yuqi approached and continued to eat grass with their heads down. Lu Yuqi also found bleating little lambs in the flock. Each one was the size of a puppy and looked very cute with its snow-white skin.
Lu Yuqi thought that since there was arable land here, there should be people there, and he urgently needed to find someone to ask. Lu Yuqi was lucky. In an open space not far from the farmland, a middle-aged man was fiddling with tools in his hands with his head down, and a yellow cat was lying next to him.
The colored native dog is the kind of Chinese pastoral dog that people will call Dahuang at first sight.
Hearing the footsteps, Tu Gou immediately stood up and looked at Lu Yuqi, taking a defensive stance. A black bird flying nearby landed on the dog's head and shouted, "Silly dog, stupid dog."
When hearing the black bird's name, the local dog did not shake its head to throw the black bird away from its head. Instead, it stuck out its tongue and wagged its tail with a grin on its face. It was obvious that the local dog and the black bird should know each other.
"Hello, excuse me." Lu Yuqi said politely.
The middle-aged man looked up and saw Lu Yuqi's appearance, and immediately smiled: "Mr. Lu. Why are you here?"
"Do you know me?" Lu Yuqi was very curious why this middle-aged man knew him.
"You came here with Master Yi. Maybe you were asleep and didn't remember it. I was the one who brought you to the island."
"Ah! So that's it." Lu Yuqi felt a little shy when she heard the middle-aged man's answer.
“I was so sleepy that day…”
The middle-aged man also noticed Lu Yuqi's embarrassment, but he just smiled and didn't say much.
"Mr. Lu, why are you here? You are holding a hunting rifle. Isn't Master Yi hunting with you?"
"No, we hunt separately. I want to ask if this place is still within the hunting grounds?"
"Well, it doesn't count. This place mainly houses some animals and breeds cubs. It's a hunting ground, but it's not within your hunting range."
"Oh, I see." Lu Yuqi thought that this middle-aged man should live on an island, so he should be very familiar with this place and should know where the prey are.
"Then do you know where the prey are? I haven't caught any prey so far, and my competition with Shang Yi is almost over."
Hearing what Lu Yuqi said, the middle-aged man laughed: "It must be the competition that Master Yi told you about."
"Yes."
"In fact, there aren't many prey in the hunting grounds right now. The masters don't come back all the time, so we've just fenced in a lot of places to raise animals."
"Ah! That would make hunting difficult."
"It may be difficult for you, but it should be easy for Master Yi. After all, he has learned how to survive in the wild, so it is easy for him to find prey by looking at the traces left by animals."
"So that's what's going on!" As soon as Lu Yuqi heard the middle-aged man's explanation, he knew there was no hope of winning.
When Shang Yi found Lu Yuqi behind the hunting ground, Lu Yuqi was sitting on the ground taking a selfie with a lamb in her arms. The local dog Dahuang was lying beside her, and a black bird was jumping around on the ground.
"Yibao, Yibao." Hearing the strange cry of the black bird, Lu Yuqi looked up and saw Shang Yi walking towards him carrying two pheasants.
"Wow~ What a great harvest!" Lu Yuqi's tone was somewhat sarcastic.
"It's okay, but I didn't gain as much as you did." When Shang Yi saw Lu Yuqi like this, he knew that his routine had failed.
"Yibao, Yibao, I miss you so much!" Seeing that Shang Yi ignored him, the black bird abandoned Dahuang's dog head and flew to Shang Yi's shoulder.
Shang Yi touched the black bird's head with his free hand: "Why are you here?"
"Fly~fly~" said the black bird.
"You know this one, it's a parrot, right? You actually call him Yibao~!"
"Well, George is a pure black parrot, very gifted with languages, and very intelligent."
"Baby, baby, baby." George called from the side.
"Your name is George, not baby." Lu Yuqi said to George.
"George is the name my father gave it. It heard my mother call me and my sister "baby", so it called itself "baby". It will be very happy when you call it "baby".
"Baby, come here." Lu Yuqi shouted to George. George immediately flew to the grass in front of Lu Yuqi and looked at Lu Yuqi with his little head tilted.
"Every time I called it, it fell in front of me."
"Well, I think George may not be very familiar with you yet. George, come here." Hearing Shang Yi's call, George immediately flew back to Shang Yi's shoulder.
"Why don't you call it baby? It likes this name very much."
"It knows that George and Baby are both calling it. My father and I are used to calling it George, and my mother and sister are used to calling it Baby."
"What a smart little thing~" With Shang Yi around, George did not refuse Lu Yuqi's touch on his little head.
"Master Yi, you're here!"
"Uncle Ming."
The middle-aged man took the two pheasants from Shang Yi and couldn't help praising him: "You are worthy of being Master Yi. The hunting grounds haven't released prey recently, and you were able to hunt pheasants. It's just right for you to have a snack tonight!"
"Ahem."
Shang Yi looked at Lu Yuqi somewhat awkwardly. He wanted to show himself off, but he was not given the chance.
Seeing Shang Yi's slightly embarrassed expression, Lu Yuqi thought to himself: It turns out that this man who usually looks calm and composed can also have a little desire to show off, which is quite cute.
"Uncle Ming, why is George here? Have they been here before? Did they leave George here?"
"Oh no, George was brought by the master and his wife."
"Bring it? My parents are here?!"
"Yes, Master Yi. The master and his wife flew over this afternoon."
"Didn't they go on a trip to Country K?"
"When I received the news, the master and his wife had already landed on the island."
"This..." Shang Yi had a headache. He knew that it must be the old steward of the island who was Uncle Ming's father who told his parents. Although he had no intention of hiding it when he brought Lu Yuqi here, it happened so suddenly. What would he think?
Shang Yi looked at Lu Yuqi with a hint of uneasiness in his eyes.
Lu Luyuqi was completely stunned. When she heard Uncle Ming say that Shang Yi's parents landed on the island, her first thought was: "Your parents came here by a private plane, right!" After saying that, she looked at Shang Yi with bright eyes.
"Yes. They are on the island now."
"Oh~ah~!" Lu Yuqi suddenly turned his head and looked at Shang Yi: "You...you...
You said your parents are on the island now! ”
"Calm down, yes. They came suddenly, and I just found out about it."
"Then...this...what should I do?" Lu Yuqi was a little flustered.
"Calm down. It's nothing. They just want to see you. They won't stay long."
"What? See me!" This news exploded in Lu Yuqi's mind like thunder, making his already confused brain even more confused.
"I didn't expect this to happen, but I'll have to meet my parents sooner or later." The next sentence Shang Yi didn't say was that an ugly daughter-in-law will always have to meet her parents-in-law: "Just keep a normal mind~"
"You make it sound easy, but how can I be calm?"
"Hmm~ Will your parents give me a check for five million and ask me to leave you when they meet later?"
"No, first of all, I'm worth more than five million. Secondly, if I really give you five million, you should keep it. If you leave me, I can follow you."
"Yeah." No matter what will happen in the meeting later, Lu Yuqi felt comforted when he heard Shang Yi say this.
