Seeing that she didn't speak, Ji Minxiu pressed his advantage and stepped forward, his clear voice carrying a hint of mockery, "Oh, what is it?"
Looking up, she met the man's smiling eyes, and Yun Zhourong immediately realized that he was teasing her on purpose!
Her little face puffed up instantly, and she angrily punched his chest with her little fist, saying irritably, "You did that on purpose!"
"Hahaha…"
Her coquettish little expression really pleased Ji Minxiu, making him unable to resist grabbing Yun Zhourong's hand and laughing out loud.
"snort!"
This time, Yun Zhourong didn't go along with him. She gave a haughty snort, withdrew her hand, and walked ahead first.
Ji Minxiu, standing behind her, couldn't help but curl his lips into a smile. "This little girl's temper is growing!"
Then, in a cheerful mood, he quickly followed after them with his long legs.
Once outside the city, the soldiers were waiting for them. Ji Minxiu gave them all their rewards, but the promised bulletproof vests were not returned.
The good news is that no one lost their life this time.
"Thank you, young master. Please feel free to come to us if you need anything in the future."
The soldiers were extremely grateful after receiving the money; such an employer was truly rare.
They experienced unprecedented respect.
"Okay." Ji Minxiu nodded with a smile.
After the soldiers left, Ji Minxiu took Yun Zhourong by helicopter to the Yazhou Army headquarters to find the wounded soldier Yang Sen.
After asking around, they finally found Yang Sen's residence.
It was a very dilapidated thatched hut with holes in the roof and windows, offering no protection against the cold in such frigid weather.
I don't know how he gets through it all.
The door was closed, and the two knocked, but no one answered.
"Are you here to see Yang the Cripple?"
At this moment, a middle-aged man passing by said disdainfully, "You guys look so respectable, how come you'd get involved with such a useless person?"
"You keep calling people useless; you should watch your mouth!"
The man's tone infuriated Yun Zhourong. "He was injured while protecting the safety of the Great Sheng Dynasty. You were one of those he was protecting. You benefited from his actions but showed no gratitude and instead insulted him like this. Do you even deserve to be called a human being?"
Seeing the little girl's unusually flustered state, Ji Minxiu found her exceptionally adorable, and he also wholeheartedly agreed with and appreciated her words.
Soldiers have sacrificed so much for the country; what this person said is truly chilling.
"If you dare to insult me, I'll beat you to death!"
The man blushed with embarrassment after Yun Zhourong's words and became so enraged that he was about to attack her.
However, Ji Minxiu grabbed her wrist and shoved her away forcefully.
The man was very thin and weak, so he was no match for Ji Minxiu, who had been working out for many years. He fell to the ground and landed hard on his butt after just one exchange.
Ji Minxiu stepped forward and kicked him hard, then looked down at him and said in a deep voice, "You dare to touch her? Are you tired of living?"
"I...I was wrong, please forgive me this time!"
Now the man realized he'd kicked a hornet's nest and quickly begged for mercy, being quite pragmatic.
“The person you should apologize to is not me,” Ji Minxiu said coldly.
The man immediately realized what had happened, endured the pain, got up, knelt in front of Yun Zhourong, and begged for mercy, "Miss...Grandma, I was blind and offended you. Please forgive me as if I were nothing!"
These words made Yun Zhourong frown in disgust. She turned her head away and said, "Don't speak ill of soldiers so casually in the future. You can leave now."
"Okay, okay!" Upon hearing this, the man quickly tried to get up.
"Wait."
As a result, Ji Minxiu immediately stopped him, "Do you know where Yang Sen went?"
"Of course I know, they've probably taken the food to help the disabled again..."
Halfway through his sentence, remembering Yun Zhourong's warning, the man immediately changed his tune, saying, "It's for those wounded soldiers. There are many wounded soldiers who have been discharged from the battlefield and are staying in the dilapidated temple in the west of the city."
"I never expected this person to be so righteous." Upon hearing this, Yun Zhourong couldn't help but feel deep admiration.
"That's stupid, living a miserable life..." the man muttered upon hearing this.
"Alright, get lost."
Knowing that this kind of person wouldn't understand Yang Sen's kindness, Ji Minxiu was too lazy to waste words with him. After letting him leave, he took Yun Zhourong to the dilapidated temple in the west of the city.
"Splash..."
Upon arrival, I saw a ceramic bowl thrown out and broken at my feet, with a few grains of rice still faintly visible.
"Get out! We've been fed this bland, watery stuff every day. We don't need your fake kindness. Get out of here!"
Immediately following was a man's desperate roar, yet even so, the weakness in his voice was still clearly audible.
"Go away, and don't bother with us anymore." Soon, a chorus of voices rose and fell, all telling people to leave.
"Alright, alright, I'm leaving. Don't be angry, but you must finish the porridge. I'll try my best to earn more money to improve your meals."
At this moment, Yang Sen's voice rang out as he spoke, leaning on his cane and limping out.
As a result, when I looked up, I saw Ji Minxiu.
"Young Master Ji, Miss Yun, you've arrived?" A look of surprise appeared in Yang Sen's eyes.
"What's going on here?" Ji Minxiu asked, frowning.
"Ah, it seems you saw everything."
Upon hearing this, Yang Sen scratched his head somewhat embarrassedly and quickly explained, "Please don't misunderstand, they didn't mean to embarrass me. I understand, they just didn't want to continue to be a burden to me..."
