She Only Cares About Cultivation-Chapter 826 - 777: Famine Era 18 (Second Update)

"Don’t be nervous, I won’t hurt you. Half a month ago near the noodle shop, did someone give you something? Now, where is it?"

Ye Huan didn’t speak but looked at him with frightened eyes.

He was very tall, and she only reached his shoulder. He wore a long robe and a hat. Although the brim was pulled down low, she could still see below his nose. He didn’t seem very old, but his hand was covered in thick calluses, confirming through her study that this person frequently carried a gun.

"Who are you? I don’t know what you’re talking about. I’m just a student. Please let me go. I don’t know anything."

Although he released her mouth, he still held onto her shoulder.

She didn’t dare to appear too brave, so her eyes were full of fear, and her expression was one of panic and anxiety.

"Classmate, you know what I’m talking about. You didn’t end up at that noodle shop by coincidence today, did you?"

"I’ve been waiting here for you for half a month. Although I don’t know how you managed to hide it from their search back then, I express the highest respect on behalf of the fallen warriors. For your safety, I think we shouldn’t waste time, quickly hand it over to me!"

Ye Huan, puzzled and wronged, glanced at him.

"Sir, I can assure you that you have the wrong person. I was just here for some noodles, but because today’s noodles were particularly spicy, I ate slowly. How could I have become the person you said took your stuff? I’ve never taken someone else’s things, nor would I hide something. I’m just a student. Where could I hide something? If you harm me, I’ll report it to the school. Let go of me; I’m a student at the Military Hospital!"

The man slightly pursed his thin lips, seemingly in thought. Ye Huan seized the opportunity, "You can search me if you want, see if I have what you’re looking for. I really don’t know what you’re looking for. I just thought the noodles there were tasty, although the owner clearly messed up today; it was too spicy. Look, my lips are all red."

Indeed, the owner added too many chili peppers today, making her stomach feel like it was on fire from just eating a bowl of noodles.

However, the person in front of her wasn’t so easily fooled. Instead, he suddenly released her shoulder and took off his hat.

When he lifted his eyes to look at her, Ye Huan was captivated by his gaze. Even though she tried hard to conceal it, she could tell that this was the man wearing sunglasses that day. Although he wore sunglasses that day, she could recognize the facial features.

His features were sharp and striking, his gaze piercing, his figure tall and commanding; it’s no surprise that she felt like she was in a drama because his face was just like the leading man’s!

She hadn’t expected it would be him following her. It seems he suspected her from the beginning, just couldn’t verify her identity, so he waited here like a cat for a mouse?

"Since you’re a student at the Military Academy, why were you dressed so poorly that day? What are you hiding?"

"What was I hiding? I secretly went to sell fruit that day, wearing a military uniform would be appropriate? So I put on my old clothes from my hometown. I was so scared when leaving that I found a place to discard the ragged clothes, fearing you’d come after me."

Could it be... she was being followed?

His sharp gaze fixed intently on her, and Ye Huan calmly looked back at him. 𝗳𝐫𝚎𝗲𝚠𝚎𝗯𝕟𝐨𝘃𝚎𝗹.𝗰𝗼𝗺

"If you don’t believe me, I can take you to the place where I got the goods and where I sold them, but it’s been long, I can’t guarantee that people will remember me. After all, I wasn’t in a military uniform then."

Without the military uniform, the impression wouldn’t be deep, and without the old clothes, even if she was rambling, she might barely get by.

Yet unexpectedly, after she said this, the other person chuckled lightly, smiled, but suddenly his ears twitched. Then, he suddenly pulled her over, and both of them fell to one side, after which the spot they had been standing in was violently strafed.

Ye Huan trembled uncontrollably, covering her mouth almost screaming, while the man beside her seemed angered by this sudden change.

When the gunfire stopped, he jumped up from the ground, grabbed a stool beside the table, and hurled it at the door that was on the verge of collapsing.

Immediately afterward, another burst of machine gun fire erupted, but they were safe as they were behind a protective wall.

But no matter how safe, she didn’t want to be drawn into this disaster!

"Who are you, really? Are you trying to get me killed? I just want to be a student, don’t drag me into this,"

"Shut up!" The man growled lowly, and Ye Huan whimpered with tears as her legs went weak from fear.

"Listen up, you people inside, you are surrounded. If you don’t want to be gunned down, surrender immediately."

As a result, when the man inside heard the voice from outside, he immediately got furious: "Zhang Shuan, you’ve got guts, surrounding me like this!"

The people outside were silent for a moment, and then about seven or eight people rushed in.

"Eldest? How come it’s you? Hey, who’s this girl?"

Liu Meng, enraged, went up and gave Bald Zhang a loud slap: "Who told you to bring people over?"

Bald Zhang Shuan was startled for a moment, suddenly realizing something wasn’t right.

"We just received a phone call saying that there’s a Gong D here, claiming to be the contact from half a month ago. At first, we didn’t believe it, but then the caller sounded so convincing, we came to arrest someone, not expecting it to be you, Eldest, and this woman,"

"Are you blind? Can’t I go on a date? I barely shook you off, and you nearly turned me into a beehive,"

The more Liu Meng thought about it, the angrier he got, kicking Bald Zhang in the calf again.
