The innocent smile on the third brother's face suddenly froze.
Just now, when he faced Su Heng and others who had treated him to a delicious meal and laughter, he released the □□ without mercy, and the smile on his face did not change.
And now, he could hardly keep his expression.
"vegetable?"
Long Pengfei was stunned by these words before the anger on his face was fully revealed due to Jiang Chuyi's direct neglect of him.
"What dish?"
"Brother..." The third brother hesitated to speak.
This little girl, seeing her companions being knocked down, not only did she not show any emotions such as worry and fear, she didn't even look at them. Instead, she caught up with him and asked about the vegetables he just mentioned casually?
For a moment, too many complicated and shocking emotions crowded in his chest, and he forgot what to say.
He looked at Jiang Chuyi, trying to find any sign of feigning calmness.
However, he was disappointed. Jiang Chuyi's pair of dark eyes were looking at him steadily. His gaze was extremely clear, and one could see at a glance... the bright desire in it.
She really only cared about her vegetables.
Could this little girl be a mentally ill patient?
The third brother fixed his eyes on Jiang Chuyi and answered Long Pengfei's question with difficulty: "The reason I told her before was that there were vegetables for her to eat at the base..."
"Really, vegetables?" Long Pengfei showed a strange expression. "It's the end of the world now, and she doesn't ask for meat or rice. She's willing to go with you just to eat some vegetables?"
"Yeah." The third brother said with a dreamy expression, "I didn't expect..."
There was a burst of malicious laughter all around.
Long Pengfei also laughed, his eyes fierce but also mixed with a bit of pity: "He was bought off with just a few vegetables, he's really pitiful and easy to deceive."
Jiang Chuyi seemed oblivious to the malice gathering around him. Unhappily, he frowned and glared at her, "I'm asking you a question. Don't you have ears?"
The laughter stopped abruptly.
A group of burly men surrounded the weak girl, like hungry wolves surrounding a lost lamb, with malicious and ridiculous looks on their faces.
The third brother really didn't expect that Jiang Chuyi could be so stupid. When the situation was so obviously dangerous, she refused to put away her temper and spoke nonsense to them.
He grinned, half laughing, and the sarcasm he was about to say changed the subject: "Little girl, didn't you see what happened to your companions?"
He wanted to see whether the girl really didn't care or was just pretending.
However, he didn't believe that she would suddenly attack and defeat all of them.
The third brother asked this with the intention of teasing a beautiful bird.
Long Pengfei did not stop him. He lit a cigarette and blew out a smoke ring, looking at him with the same look of watching a good show.
As everyone watched, Jiang Chuyi sighed.
"What a useless bunch." Her tone was filled with genuine regret. "I thought the people out there would be smarter, but I didn't expect any of them to not even understand what I'm saying."
Everyone was stunned.
The third brother froze: "What did you say?"
"Are you deaf? Did I just tell you I was asking you a question?" Jiang Chuyi held his chin high, his eyes filled with natural arrogance. "Who gave you the guts to ask me a question before you even answered it? Listen up, you piece of shit who needs me to repeat it a second time. I'm asking you again, where are the vegetables you promised me?"
All the sounds around me disappeared.
Everyone stared blankly at the domineering girl in the middle. The ash in Long Pengfei's hand broke because he forgot to shake it off and it fell into the hand of the person next to him.
"Ah!" The man let out a short scream, then immediately covered his mouth and looked at Long Pengfei in horror.
However, Long Pengfei didn't notice him at all. He just stared at Jiang Chuyi without blinking, as if she was a new species that suddenly appeared.
Jiang Chuyi thought she had stated the question clearly enough. For the sake of her food, she waited patiently for the answer.
But at the same time, her patience was gradually decreasing. She carefully counted the number of people in front of her and sighed in her heart.
Just these few people can actually become the villains in the early part of this book.
Then she thought that she was also one of the villains in this book, and her mood suddenly became even worse.
Jiang Chuyi swallowed her anger for the sake of her dish and looked at the third brother steadily.
After receiving such a scolding, the third brother's smile completely disappeared. The muscles on his face twitched slightly, and he raised his hand to slap Jiang Chuyi.
"Third brother, stop it."
A calm voice stopped him.
"Big Brother." The third brother's raised hand froze in mid-air, and he didn't continue to hit her. His voice was filled with anger. "This girl is too presumptuous. Even if we bring her back like this, it will be difficult to sell her. We need to teach her a lesson."
Sell?
Jiang Chuyi tilted his head.
Although she didn't know much about the outside world, she was not a fool. She could certainly feel that these people were full of evil thoughts and were not good people.
But so what?
This person promised to give her food, so she followed him to take a look. This is the current value of this group of people.
Even if they are not good people and are planning to do something, what does it have to do with her?
She only knew that she was starving and had to eat what she wanted right away, otherwise she would be really angry.
Just when Jiang Chuyi's patience was about to run out, Long Pengfei's voice rang out.
"It's just vegetables. We have as many as you want in our base. Don't worry, little girl." Long Pengfei laughed, as if he found Jiang Chuyi very interesting. Then he turned to the third brother with a serious look in his eyes.
"Third brother, when did you become so insensitive to the market? Girls like this with both personality and beauty are quite rare these days." He threw his half-smoked cigarette to the ground and crushed it with the sole of his shoe. "Those women are trying to survive... Tsk."
He spat contemptuously and looked at Jiang Chuyi as if he was looking at a rare treasure, an extremely valuable commodity.
After Long Pengfei said this, even if the third brother wanted to slap Jiang Chuyi again, he had to let it go reluctantly.
Jiang Chuyi glanced at his lowered hand.
If she really dared to slap him, regardless of whether her identity would be exposed or not, this hand would not still be on her wrist.
Seeing that someone else had made a promise, she shifted her focus and looked at the taller Long Pengfei: "Are you serious?"
At the same time, the third brother had no idea what he had dodged. He looked at Long Pengfei unwillingly: "Brother, what do you mean?"
Beep.
Something in Long Pengfei's body suddenly made a sound.
Long Pengfei narrowed his eyes, took out an old-fashioned walkie-talkie, walked over and spoke in a low voice.
Seeing something new, Jiang Chuyi's anger was overwhelmed by curiosity. She stared at the black object carefully and asked in her heart: "Huh, what is that? A cell phone? It doesn't look like the picture."
"It's not a cell phone, it's a walkie-talkie. It works within a certain distance." The system was no longer surprised that she had never seen a cell phone before, and explained dutifully, "It's the end of the world now, there's no signal, so using this is easier to communicate."
"Is that so?" Jiang Chuyi's curiosity was satisfied and his mood improved a little.
But she was still very hungry, so she decided she could wait a little longer.
After all, these people were the only ones she knew who knew where to find green vegetables.
As soon as she finished asking the system, Long Pengfei put away the walkie-talkie and walked back.
"Something's going on with the old man, I need to go over to him." Long Pengfei said calmly, then tilted his chin towards Jiang Chuyi, "Third brother, you're responsible for bringing her back. Remember, she has to be 'intact', understand?"
He placed special emphasis on the words he pronounced, and stared at the third brother with his slanted eyes.
The third brother shuddered violently and replied repeatedly: "Yes, big brother, I will definitely bring her back safely."
He knew very well what these four words meant.
Not only was he being warned not to hit Jiang Chuyi, but he was also being warned that he was not allowed to "take action" against Jiang Chuyi before Long Pengfei returned.
In this case, he naturally didn't dare to do anything.
Looking at Jiang Chuyi, he pulled the corners of his mouth and forced himself to reveal that honest smile again.
After realizing that Long Pengfei seemed to attach special importance to this girl with a mental problem, he changed his tone.
"Little sister, we haven't returned to the base yet. You see, this is just a simple camp. The vegetables we grow are all in the base. We have to go back first."
