Duan Linzhou spoke sternly, his voice loud enough for those around him to hear clearly. Those with good judgment had already silently lined up.
A few troublemakers were still stubborn and wanted to cut in line, but Duan Linzhou wasn't just standing there threateningly.
Duan Linzhou walked over, grabbed a troublemaker by the collar, and threw him out of the line. Many people glanced at what was happening, but no one dared to make a sound.
Lin Hu lay on the rocking chair, turning his head to watch this scene, and noticed that when Duan Linzhou threw the person out, his waistline was exposed.
Lin Hu turned his head away thoughtfully, no longer looking, thinking of the scene yesterday when the other person insisted on sleeping together.
It's not that he doesn't want to sleep together, it's just that ever since the other person kissed him, he keeps having dreams about it. Strangely enough, he's still the bottom in those dreams.
I don't know how to deal with this; I'm really conflicted.
"Sorry, brother. I'm not trying to cut in line, I just want to pass through." The troublemaker quickly explained, realizing that Duan Linzhou's level was higher than his.
"Oh? You mean you're not going to eat?" Duan Linzhou asked the other person with innocent confusion, but the troublemaker thought that Duan Linzhou was threatening him.
Those around me who wanted to leave, and those who didn't want to leave, are now afraid to leave.
"I'll eat, I'll eat, I'll go line up right now." The troublemaker quickly ran to the back of the line and stood there.
Duan Linzhou hadn't expected his casual inquiry to elicit such a strong reaction, so he stopped standing there and took a chair to sit by the lake.
"Brother Duan is so powerful, no one dares to cause trouble anymore." Lin Hu teased with a smile, his tone lazy, like a languid kitten warmed by the sun.
Duan Linzhou reached out to take his hand, comparing it to his own palm. It was small and soft, with some thin calluses on his fingers.
"Have you ever played the piano?" Duan Linzhou asked.
"Yes, I played the piano for four years," Lin Hu replied, lowering his eyes as he drifted into memories.
"My darling is truly elegant in public and skilled in the kitchen." Duan Linzhou brought Lin Hu's hand to his lips and gave it a light kiss.
Lin Hu didn't expect Duan Linzhou to be so straightforward, not at all avoiding people's opinions.
Some of the people queuing for food noticed their interaction, while others continued queuing without a care in the world, and still others looked pale and sickly.
However, some people still feel that having someone to accompany them in the apocalypse, regardless of gender, is a kind of comfort.
Lin Hu awkwardly withdrew his hand, his gaze falling on Qin Yaoyao, who was also in line and looked furious.
Lin Hu ignored her; he was content with whatever she wanted, as long as he earned the crystal cores.
When Qin Yaoyao got her food, she always felt that she had less than others, and she thought that Lin Hu had made Liu Xu and Sun Xiaoxiao do it.
"What do you mean? Are you the cafeteria lady? Why are you shaking the food when you're serving it?" Qin Yaoyao pointed at Sun Xiaoxiao's nose and scolded her.
Sun Xiaoxiao was scolded for no reason and was completely bewildered. She had always administered the normal dosage; if there was too much, she would shudder and reduce it, and if there was too little, she would add more.
"I should be asking you what you mean. Are you trying to cause trouble? So many people haven't said there's a problem, but you're the only one with a problem?" Liu Xu stood in front of Sun Xiaoxiao and retorted to the pretty girl in front of her.
If you ask them a normal question, they will answer politely, but if they start off with a rude tone, she will get angry.
“Yes, I’ve always played normally.” Sun Xiaoxiao stepped out from behind Liu Xu and stood next to her.
"Everyone else has more than me, what can they say? You're just bullying me, a girl." Qin Yaoyao persisted, displaying her willful and capricious nature to the fullest.
Many people around turned to look as the noise gradually grew louder.
“We’re not setting up this stall just to make money off your crystal cores.” Lin Hu stood up from the rocking chair, walked in front of Liu Xu and Sun Xiaoxiao, and stood in front of them.
"I run a business. People can come if they want, and I won't force them if they don't. I don't really like people like you." Lin Hu raised his eyebrows, looking disgusted, and retorted without any politeness.
Liu Xu and Sun Xiaoxiao both wanted to applaud him.
Brother Lin is really tough!
"Brother Linzhou..." Qin Yaoyao called out in a muffled voice when she saw Duan Linzhou walking over, looking like she was about to cry.
"Brother? You know her?" Lin Hu asked sarcastically as Duan Linzhou approached him.
He learned all of this from that fake young master in his family.
"I don't know him. I'm an only child, I don't have any brothers or sisters." Duan Linzhou didn't even spare a glance for Lin Hu, staring at her jealous expression, he quickly distanced himself from her, and his eyes crinkled slightly as he looked at Lin Hu.
Lin Hu could sense that the other person was looking at him from the corner of his eye, but he ignored it.
"Hey~ Give me the crystal cores first. Don't think you can get a free meal just because you call me 'brother' a couple of times." Liu Xu reminded him, trying to break up his pairing? No way! Not even a window of opportunity!
"It's just a few broken crystal cores, here you go!" Qin Yaoyao took out a few level-two crystal cores and threw them at Liu Xu in a fit of pique, causing them to roll on the ground.
"You!" Liu Xu was so angry that she was about to argue with her, but Sun Xiaoxiao stopped her.
"Let's check if the quantity is correct." Sun Xiaoxiao squatted down, picked up the crystal cores, and handed them to Liu Xu.
Qin Yaoyao took her food to eat elsewhere. She didn't want to see Lin Hu and the others right now, and she didn't even want to see Duan Linzhou.
As she ate her food, tears involuntarily streamed down her face. She had never suffered such injustice in her entire life.
His brother is currently poisoned and unconscious, so the whole family has to dig more bamboo shoots for his raft.
Qin Yaoyao looked at the blisters on her palms, which were both itchy and painful, and felt like her hands didn't even belong to her anymore.
Moreover, because of what happened yesterday, the Duan family withdrew the batch of medicine they had promised to sell to them.
They said the quantity is currently insufficient and it will take some time to adjust.
