Chapter 139: The remaining family

However, the other party would never have imagined that Liang Yu had no interest whatsoever in the meat of these two-legged sheep.

He did this purely to lure out the people nearby.

Then he would slaughter them and burn them to ashes.

Perhaps it was that one shot that stimulated him.

Or maybe it was the closest he had ever been to death.

If he hadn’t worn protection, he estimated he would have faced the feeling of being severely injured and on the verge of death.

He now recalled that the modifier’s infinite life had not been activated.

To prevent this from happening again, after being shot and calming down, he activated the infinite life option.

Time passed as both sides waited patiently.

Liang Yu saw that the sky was already beginning to darken.

He went to Lan Ling’s room and checked her condition.

She was still sleeping soundly, breathing steadily.

There were no problems, which reassured him.

Then he took a high-precision sniper rifle from the armory, installed a silencer, and checked his own equipment.

Finding no issues, he instantly teleported to the top floor of a self-built building with the best view near the village entrance.

After confirming that the surroundings were safe, Liang Yu took out a mimetic tent.

The tent was not very large, more than enough for one person.

The most crucial thing was that the tent’s surroundings could automatically adjust according to the colors of the environment.

It perfectly blended into the environment, and if needed, a manual adjustment function could be activated internally.

After doing all this, Liang Yu set up the sniper rifle in the tent and waited for the other party to appear.

After Liang Yu was ready, this group of people did not appear immediately as he had expected.

He waited for a long time, but still didn’t see a single soul.

While waiting, the sky had completely darkened.

Even the moonlight was so faint tonight.

Without light, it was no exaggeration to say that it confirmed the saying, ‘you can’t see your hand in front of your face.’

Liang Yu’s patience was starting to wear thin.

He simply took out a drone, turned on night vision mode, and sent the drone to scout the surroundings.

However, even after searching several houses near the village entrance, he still didn’t find any trace of that group of people.

This made him very puzzled.

Could it be that the other party got scared and ran away?

But he felt that shouldn’t be the case; it was unlikely they would let go of so much food.

Or maybe he just hadn’t found them.

Liang Yu didn’t know that this group of people was hiding in a house farthest from the RV.

They were afraid of being discovered and didn’t even dare to make any light.

Moreover, this group of people discussed it and realized that each of them would find it very difficult to drag a two-legged sheep’s corpse.

So they called their own villagers over.

Liang Yu was waiting for them to take the bait, while they were waiting for their own villagers.

Another two hours passed with this waiting game.

He glanced at the time; it was not even 8 o’clock yet.

At this point, he had completely lost patience.

He put away the set-up sniper rifle, along with the tent.

He took out six drones and six red burning spheres, hanging the burning spheres on the drones.

After setting the program, Liang Yu had the drones fly in various directions over the pile of corpses.

He, himself, returned to the RV.

The first thing he did upon returning to the RV was to walk to Lan Ling’s room door.

He gently opened the door.

He found that Lan Ling was already awake.

Liang Yu stepped forward, touching her here and there, while simultaneously saying,

“Hmm, I just checked, and there are no problems with your body.”

“But!”

Liang Yu stopped there, leaning in close and looking at Lan Ling.

Lan Ling pushed Liang Yu’s face away.

“But what? Just say it, don’t keep me in suspense.”

Hearing her speak, Liang Yu felt relieved.

“But if a certain person doesn’t voluntarily leave a lip print on my face, I won’t tell her something.”

Lan Ling looked at him and said rather calmly,

“I received a message.”

“The message told me to take good care of myself.”

“And it instructed me on many precautions; to me, it sounded like they were giving their last wishes.”

“Everything was well-instructed, except they didn’t mention their own situation.”

“If nothing unexpected happened, I no longer have any family.”

Only then did Liang Yu remember that Lan Ling had said her parents had gone abroad.

She had chosen to stay alone because she couldn’t get used to life abroad.

Liang Yu cupped her face again, and their eyes met.

He said word by word,

“The thing I want to tell her is rather happy.”

“This silly girl, she doesn’t have no family; she still has one.”

“You’re right, aren’t you?”

“Right!”

After Lan Ling finished speaking, she actively hugged Liang Yu tightly.

The two of them just stayed embraced like that.

Until Lan Ling’s stomach signaled a need for food.

Only then did she say to Liang Yu,

“Da Zhu Ti Zi, I’m hungry.”

Liang Yu smiled when he heard that.

“Then you must want to eat pig trotters.”

“Tell me, the God of Cooking can grant your wish. Do you want to eat a whole braised pig trotter?”

“Or do you want to eat charcoal-grilled pig trotters?”

“Listen carefully, they are different.”

Upon receiving Liang Yu’s reminder, she seemed to understand something.

“I want to eat a whole one!!”

After saying that, she hung herself on Liang Yu’s body, just like a koala.

Her legs even clamped around Liang Yu’s waist; if her clothes were replaced with a koala plush suit at this moment, she would look even more like one.

Liang Yu was very cooperative, protecting her with both hands as he stood up.

He carried his ‘attachment’ to the dining room.

Then he placed Lan Ling on a chair.

“Wait for me a moment, dinner will be ready very soon.”

Liang Yu didn’t make Lan Ling wait too long.

He soon came over carrying a large basin.

Looking at the basin full of side dishes and the prominent large pig’s trotters in the middle,

She confirmed that this was the pig trotter rice from the northern region.

It contained a whole pig’s trotter.

Not only were the side dishes plentiful, but there was also a good amount of rice underneath.

The main point was that it was a large and satisfying portion.

“Oh, you, you’ve calculated everything, haven’t you?”

“Such a large basin, do you want to stuff me to death?!”

“Or are you feeding me like a pig? Can I eat that much?”

“This portion weighs at least four or five catties!!”

Liang Yu then took out two sets of chopsticks and bowls, handing one set to her.

“Of course, it’s impossible for you to eat alone; I’m hungry.”

“Come on, dig in! If you don’t eat now, it won’t taste good when it gets cold.”

“Girl, do you want to eat seafood? If you do, I’ll get some for you.”

Lan Ling was probably very hungry, so she crushed the braised pig trotter meat and mixed it with rice, filling a bowl to the brim.

She quickly devoured the food in her bowl, mouthful by mouthful.

Not speaking while eating was part of her upbringing, so she didn’t answer Liang Yu’s question while her mouth was full.

While Liang Yu and Lan Ling were eating hot meals comfortably in the warm RV, the dozen or so people waiting in the house were not as comfortable as them.
