Director Zhang frowned as well. “Yeah. What took them so long? I hope nothing they are fine.”
Xiao Gu had been pacing back and forth.
He was worried that Liu Yufan and Li Wei would run into danger when they went out, but he was too scared to go out alone.
“If they can’t find any food, it doesn’t matter they come back or not. If they died outside, we could save some food!”
Even though Auntie Wang was telling the truth, Xiao Gu didn’t like her words.
However, Xiao Gu didn’t dare to talk back to Auntie Wang. When Auntie Wang killed Director Liu, they were all shocked. None of them expected that she could be so ruthless.
“I don’t want to lose any one of us. After all, we are a team now!” Director Zhang stood up and said something to appease Xiao Gu.
“It’s really late. Why don’t you go find them?” Director Zhang said to Xiao Gu.
Xiao Gu frowned. “Ah, am I going alone? I…”
Xiao Gu’s eyes were full of fear. He was too scared to go into forest when it was the dark.
Just as Xiao Gu was struggling to say no, a rustling sound came from the forest behind him.
“Susurrus, susurrus.”
It was the sound of the leaves being stirred.
They all looked cautiously in that direction.
They saw two long shadows under the moonlight.
The shadows were distorted, and it was hard to tell who they really were. Director Zhang and the others looked at each other in dismay.
They picked up the wooden stick next to them and were on guard.
“Susurrus, susurrus.”
The sound was getting closer and closer.
Xiao Gu gripped the wooden stick tightly and stared in the direction of the sound. He was ready to hit the intruders once they showed up.
Suddenly, a human head poked out from the bushes.
It had a long hair and was wearing a white dress. It looked really scary.
Xiao Gu was terrified when he saw it. He did not have time to think. He just closed his eyes and swung the stick without saying a word. freewebno(v)el.com
“Ouch! What are you doing!”
He heard a female voice yell at him.
Xiao Gu paused. Wasn’t that Liu Yufan’s voice? He slowly opened his eyes to take a closer look.
It was really Liu Yufan.
Why did her face look so creepy under the moonlight?
She looked like a ghost. Why hadn’t he noticed it before?
Li Wei followed closely behind Liu Yufan.
The two of them were a little tired, but their clothes were mostly clean. They didn’t look they had been walking in the forest for a whole day.
Before Director Zhang and Auntie Wang asked if they had found any food, Li Wei spoke first. “It’s too hard. We tried to catch a rabbit, but we failed. We had chased it for the whole day, but we were too weak to catch it!”
“That’s right. My foot is injured. Otherwise, we wouldn’t have come back so late!” Liu Yufan echoed.
Xiao Gu looked at Liu Yufan’s ankle, but it looked completely fine.
“I sprained my ankle, so it didn’t have any wound. Do you think I am lying?” Liu Yufan glared at Xiao Gu.
Xiao Gu was attracted by Liu Yufan’s pretty face. Seeing her mad at him, he quickly added. “No, of course not. Come and sit down. I’ll rub your ankle!”
As he spoke, he sat beside the bonfire.
Auntie Wang gave a meaningful look at Li Wei and Liu Yufan who came back empty-handed. Their clothes were quite clean. It seemed like they did not chase the rabbits for a whole day in the forest at all.
But Auntie Wang didn’t blame them.
“Since you returned empty-handed, then you shouldn’t eat anything today!” Auntie Wang said calmly.
“Why? We’ve been running all day. Where were you guys when we worked like dogs? We are starving right now!” Li Wei was dissatisfied and retorted.
“How dare you talk to Auntie Wang like that!” Director Zhang intervened and scolded Li Wei, “Everyone has their own things to do. We’re a team. We finished setting up the tent today. We’re also very tired! You think we just stay her and do nothing?”
Li Wei realized her mistake and said a little timidly, “But you have to let us eat, right? You just said we’re a team!”
Auntie Wang scolded her again, “Everyone in a team should contribute something. Depending on how much you contribute, you’ll get a share that you deserve.”
“That’s right, I agree with that!” Tie Zhu replied seriously when he heard their argument.
Li Wei was so angry that she directly went into the tent to sleep, not caring about her hunger anymore.
Liu Yufan quickly followed Li Wei into the tent. She did not dare to face the crowd alone.
Auntie Wang and the other three sat by the bonfire. They looked at each other helplessly.
They knew that these two girls were slacking off the whole day, but they didn’t want to expose the two of them. But they did not expect that these two girls would have such rude attitude.
“Humph, from today onwards, everyone should complete their tasks. Those who failed to do so will not be given any food!” Director Zhang snorted coldly. His words were clearly meant for the two girls in the tent.
“In my opinion, I’ll let the two of them look for food tomorrow again. I’d like to see how good their endurance is!” Auntie Wang said angrily.
Xiao Gu didn’t worry about finding food. Director Zhang and the others had offended Chang Yuan, but he didn’t. He could still ask Chang Yuan for help again.
Xiao Gu knew that Auntie Wang were just tried to teach the two women a hard lesson by sending them to search for food tomorrow.
However, he didn’t dare to go against Director Zhang and Auntie Wang’s decision. freewebno(v)el
He crawled into the tent and comforted Liu Yufan in a low voice, “Don’t worry, I’ll help you look for food tomorrow!”
Liu Yufan replied with a fake smile, “You’re so nice. Thank you for helping me!”
After hearing her sweet and coquettish voice, Xiao Gu loved her even more.
When Xiao Gu left, Li Wei looked at Liu Yufan in disdain and thought to herself, “Humph, I also know how to seduce a man.”
Li Wei stood up and leaned outside. She pretended to trip and fell to the ground, “Ouch!”
When she fell to the ground, she made a loud noise. Then, she quickly posed in a sexy position and showed one side of her breast to Xiao Gu.
But Xiao Gu didn’t bother take a look. Li Wei’s cup size was too small.
Seeing this, Li Wei decided to change to a different target. She shifted her body again and showed her sexy body to the other young and strong man, Tie Zhu..
