Quick Wear: This Cannon Fodder is Delicate and Expensive

Chapter 249: Legend of the Blood Clan (33)

The four of them found a nearby tavern, but it was so messy and dilapidated like a ruin, and it was just a place where they could barely sit down and discuss matters.

Shi Qi looked at the thick layer of sand on the table, and with a wave of his hand, the surface of the table and chairs became clean.

"Xiao Shi, you are so awesome." Lan Xiao was standing next to him, her eyes still sparkling.

This confused Shi Qi. The girl kept looking at him with a fangirl expression.

Could it be possible that the tasker knew her? But she couldn't remember in which world she had met a girl with this personality.

"Ahem...thank you." Out of politeness, and especially since a beautiful woman was praising her, Shi Qi still thanked her with a smile.

The two men stood behind the two girls, hugging their chests, not looking at each other. They both looked unhappy and seemed to be thinking about something.

"Wen Liang, what are you standing there for? Come and sit down." Shi Qi patted the empty seat next to him and looked at Wen Liang.

Wen Liang was stunned for a moment, then the corners of his mouth secretly raised. He raised an eyebrow at Ling Li like a winner, patted his clothes, and then sat down next to Shi Qi in a "whoosh".

Ling Li paused, frowned, said nothing, and sat next to Lan Xiao.

Shi Qi looked at the two men flirting with each other, and Wen Liang even ran over shyly, and he suddenly felt itchy in his heart.

A cold man and a proud boy.

Come on, this forbidden love is really...super cool!

After slightly suppressing the primordial power in his body, Shi Qi pursed his lips and said, "I don't know what the two of you are doing here?"

"We came here to investigate something." Ling Li replied, but the answer was obviously abrupt and strange.

"Really? The investigation turned up the vampires? And it happened in such a remote and backward place?" Wen Liang raised his eyebrows, with an unclear meaning.

Ling Li raised his head, looking calm and composed: "Someone from the Blood Hunters broke the law and fled here. We are just following orders to arrest him. There is no need to make a fuss."

This answer seems perfect, but it is full of loopholes.

But Shi Qi was used to it. Ling Li was always distant and defensive towards her.

"Haha, do you believe this? I don't care what you want to do, just don't make any conspiracies behind Shi Qi's back." Wen Liang said.

"What about you? What are you doing next to Her Highness? If I remember correctly, she has just been engaged to the new king of the werewolf tribe. What do you want to do by appearing here and being so close to her?" Ling Li was not angry, but asked Wen Liang instead.

"This Yin Su... is quite a cuckold. His fiancée was deceived by someone else right after they got engaged." Ling Li pursed his lips and said regretfully.

Wen Liang was stunned: I...cheat on myself?

Even though it was him, why did I feel so unhappy when I heard Ling Li talking like that?

You still have to get angry when you need to.

Wen Liang pursed his lips and raised his eyebrows: "Oh, who am I? I'll scare you to death if I tell you."

"But... I don't want to tell you." Wen Liang curled his lips and turned his face away, but he felt very upset.

Damn it, I can’t fight back, my hair isn’t even blown up!

But it’s ok, he didn’t lose in momentum…

Ling Li's mouth twitched slightly, as if he didn't expect Wen Liang to answer like that.

Shi Qi felt a slight headache when he looked at the two men who came to him just for the blood mark.

Brother, you two are the same, so stop criticizing each other.

"Actually, Sister Xiao, oh...can I call you Sister Xiao?" Lan Xiao spoke, looking at Shi Qi with bright eyes, which also eased the awkward atmosphere.

"Of course." Shi Qi smiled and looked at the young girl in front of him with tenderness in his eyes.

"Sister, actually I was the one who dragged Ling Li here because I wanted to see you. You can also... feel the existence of the 'system', right?" Lan Xiao deliberately lowered her voice and said the word 'system' very quietly.

"I know, but... did you know me in your previous world?" Shi Qi asked curiously.

"Of course I know you. I can even write your name backwards. And I came here just because I was following the variety show between you and Master Yan. Did Yan Cheng come with you?" Lan Xiao asked excitedly.

Shi Qi understood. It turned out that the person was from her Wen Wen's world, and was her fan.

"I understand. How was Wenwen when you came? Was he okay?" Shi Qi asked with concern.

"Bai Wen? He is very famous, but I don't know much about him." Lan Xiao scratched his head.

Bald: “…” Doesn’t Yan Cheng deserve to have a name?

The two of them talked a lot in whispers, and Shi Qi finally figured out that this was her little fan girl, and their relationship suddenly became much closer.

"What are you two whispering about?" Wen Liang waited for a long time. When he saw Lan Xiao holding Shi Qi's hand, he frowned and looked a little unhappy.

"It's okay. They will come with us to repair the canal this time. Don't worry, nothing will happen." Shi Qi said.

Wen Liang shrugged: "Okay, I don't care."

It’s a good opportunity to see what Ling Li is planning.

……

After a short rest, the four of them rushed to the next stop to inquire about the canal.

The awkward atmosphere among the four people turned into awkwardness between two men after Lan Xiao revealed his identity.

Shi Qilanxiao walked in front with her arm around his, talking and laughing, the scene was extremely harmonious.

The two men behind him kept silent and kept their distance.

"Do you like her?" Ling Li looked at the absent-minded man and suddenly spoke.

This did break the silence, but it turned out to be very awkward.

"What...what do you like? Who do you like?" Wen Liang was stunned and felt his ears burning.

"Lan Xiao said that she likes to be around someone, which means she likes him. From the time she met you until now, your eyes have always been on Shi Qi, so she was just asking you out of curiosity." Ling Li said lightly.

"Don't panic, I just listened to what she said. I myself don't know what love is." Seeing that Wen Liang was uncomfortable, Ling Li stopped asking.

Then, the two of them became quiet again.

"Um... did you know that Shi Qi has a fiancé? You are neither a vampire, nor a human, nor a werewolf. What are you?" Not long after, Ling Li spoke again.

Then... the atmosphere became awkward again.

"I... still don't want to tell you." Wen Liang blinked and shook his head.

"..."

Bald: "This is so embarrassing! My toes will get tired too!"

Finally, in this strange atmosphere, the four arrived at the next supply station.

It is obviously more lively and peaceful here. Everyone lines up in order to get water.

The shop owner saw the four new people, put down the soup spoon in his hand, and waved to them: "Hey, those four, are you here to get the soup? Get in line behind you."

Shi Qi looked at the long line, nodded, and pulled the group to sit next to the straw mat.

"Hey, girl, don't you want some water? This is the last bucket of soup today." The old man said kindly.

"No thanks, old man. We want to ask you something while you're done with your work." Lan Xiao said with a smile, her sweet face looking very endearing.

"Okay, wait a moment, I'll finish cleaning up and come over."

The sun was getting hotter and hotter, and the straw on the roof seemed about to catch fire.

Shi Qi's throat felt a little dull, sore and dry.

"Here, I left two just now, and there's just one left for you." Wen Liang took out a sour fruit from somewhere.

It is well preserved, bright red, plump and juicy.

Shi Qi turned his head and saw the man, his mouth cracked by the drought, smiling and talking to him.

Shi Qi held Wen Liang's face, stroked Wen Liang's lips, and gently opened them. The cold temperature of his fingers made Wen Liang's cheeks blush, and he looked away in panic.

"What are you...doing?"

Shi Qi let go of his hand and said calmly: "The teeth are white, it's obvious that he didn't eat."

After saying that, he took the fruit and ate it in one bite with a smile.

Mm, sour and sweet~

Well, kids are so nice.

It was specially left for her.
