Lu Yuan's words made everyone burst into laughter, and the people in Group A also looked at Lu Yuan with red faces and thick necks.
"It was you who led your men to destroy the food supplies in our camp!"
Lu Yuan sneered, "Heh! You're saying we destroyed your camp's food supplies? You can't just say that! What evidence do you have? And why doesn't Jiang Mingxuan come to me personally? Is he just hiding behind like a coward? Our food supplies were destroyed last time too! I was thinking of asking him about it!"
"You!" The other party was speechless after being rebuked by Lu Yuan. Because they were also involved in the last incident of destroying Lu Yuan's food, they always felt that Lu Yuan and his group had not caused them any trouble, and thought that Lu Yuan was someone they couldn't afford to offend. However, they didn't expect to find out that Lu Yuan was not someone to be trifled with when they first met him.
"What do you mean, 'you'? Get out now, or should we ask you to leave?"
After speaking, Lu Yuan looked at the other person coldly.
The group exchanged glances, then stamped their feet and said, "Fine! You win! We'll find the evidence sooner or later! Then you'll be kicked out of this underground fortress! I hope you won't regret it!"
"Hehe! I don't regret it! Oh, and when you get back, please say hello to Jiang Mingxuan for me! If you find out who did it, let me know. I also want to know who destroyed our grain!"
The other party left helplessly.
The crowd behind Lu Yuan booed dismissively.
"Alright! If there's nothing else, go back to sleep!"
After saying that, Lu Yuan yawned and went back to his tent to sleep.
The groups of people returned to the camp and stood dejectedly in front of Jiang Mingxuan.
"Are you all idiots? You just let them scare you back like that?"
"No, Boss Jiang, their men have all come out. We're no match for them at all!"
The henchmen weren't stupid. They hadn't had much to live for, and they had no desire to clash with Jiang Mingxuan for his sake. After all, they were guaranteed a daily food supply, and although their food might not be as good as before, at least they wouldn't go hungry.
A hint of annoyance flashed across Jiang Mingxuan's face.
"Bastards! Get the hell out of here!"
After saying that, Jiang Mingxuan threw the booklet in his hand away, and the group slunk away.
"Damn it! You think you can mess with me? Humph! You overestimate yourself! Just you wait, Lu Yuan!"
Then Jiang Mingxuan went to Gu Wenzhong's office again and threw his temporary identity card on the table.
"Boss Gu! Still no results?"
The other person shook their head.
"Sigh! The disciplinary team isn't cooperating! We really have no way to deal with this!"
"So we're just going to swallow this bitter pill?"
Gu Wenzhong's expression wasn't good either, staring intently at the other person: "So you're blaming me? You were the one who handled this whole thing! Now you're blaming me. What do you mean by that?"
"I'm working for you! We're all in this together now, don't think I don't know what you're up to! If you don't want to get involved, believe me, I'll expose you and ruin your reputation!"
A cold glint flashed in Gu Wenzhong's eyes: "Are you threatening me?"
Jiang Mingxuan sneered, "I wouldn't dare! How could I threaten you? What I'm saying is, if Lu Yuan continues to be so arrogant, none of us will benefit!"
"I don't need you to remind me! Don't cause me any trouble lately! I have my own ways!"
After saying that, Gu Wenzhong ignored the other person and left the office with his things.
Jiang Mingxuan angrily returned to the camp with his signboard. Everyone stared at him in disbelief, thinking he had gone to help solve the food problem, but he hadn't expected to come back without doing anything.
Everyone wanted to ask when it was time to eat, but no one dared to ask; they could only silently endure their hunger.
The next morning, things were the same as usual at the camp. People got up, packed their things, and went to the square to meet up. The group leaders went to collect their tasks for the day and their rations from the previous day, and then went to their respective work areas.
Lu Yuan remained silent in the middle of the group. He was now almost completely disconnected from the other camps, like a group of idle people with nothing to do or any tasks to take on. He could only wander around the construction site and then return.
However, a piercing gaze was fixed on him from afar. Lu Yuan didn't even need to look; it was definitely Jiang Mingxuan's. But he had no intention of paying any attention to him. If you can destroy our grain, why can't we? Lu Yuan was completely unmoved. He even thought about having a good talk with Xiwen and the others at the construction site.
Once at the construction site, the group was divided into many smaller groups, some with three to five people, and others like Lu Yuan and his group with more than twenty people. Everyone was idle and had nothing to do but count the pebbles on the ground.
Among them, Zhou Chen probably had the most fun. This girl was carefree every day, as if nothing happened outside. She ran around everywhere. Wang Mingming's younger sister, Xiao Qin, was a timid girl, about the same age as Zhou Chen, but she didn't dare to run around like him.
Zhou Chen went to see her several times, but she always hid behind Wang Mingming and didn't dare to come out, as if the people outside were bad people. She would rather stay with her brother every day and give up her own time to play.
