Chapter 62: Gorgeous Doctor (9)
Feng Cheng waved his hand. “You can leave now.”
Bai Yanran was stunned. That was it? She didn’t intend to quit. “Lord, actually I have…”
“Xiao Rufeng, you’re such a bitch, a bastard without a mother’s education. Don’t you look in the mirror? Look at your ugly face, how dare you compare yourself to Rufei.” The sound of an angry rebuke interrupted Bai Yanran’s confession.
Feng Cheng looked to the source. A girl in the group as well as several others confronted Xiao Rufeng, some food scattered on the ground. Xiao Rufeng bowed her head, her expression unseen.
The girl abused Xiao Rufeng with words for a while, but it seemed to not be enough for her. She was about to physically beat Xiao Rufeng; meanwhile, Xiao Rufeng couldn’t bear such humiliation for much longer.
A great argument war was about to begin.
Main characters: Xiao Rufeng, Miss Nobody, Feng Cheng, Bai Yanran, and a number of extras.
Audience: The golden triangle team of Death Valley.
Er… plus a thunder cat.
As the other side was trapped in endless quarrels, the thunder cat jumped out of the grass, lowering its head wearily. It spat the egg out from its mouth and pushed it toward Ming Shu using its nose.
“You’re giving me this to eat?” Ming Shu picked up the egg to throw it excitedly into the fire.
The thunder cat immediately bit on her sleeve, shaking its head strongly. It’s not for you to eat.
“If it’s not for me to eat, why did you give it to me?” Ming Shu threw the egg aside.
The thunder cat whined with a desperate look. It stretched out a paw to pull the egg back. With its nose touching the egg continuously, the thunder cat seemed to be trying to wake it up.
“No breathing, it’s dead.” Hui Xue didn’t have the heart to see the thunder cat in pain. It looked so pitiful.
Hearing this, the thunder cat grew more despairing. It pressed on the egg and started to cry aloud, purring.
“…” Are you serious? As a spirit beast, is it necessary for you to cry so energetically?Ming Shu thought.
“Miss, check this, is there any hope of rescuing it?” Hui Xue looked at Ming Shu with imploring eyes. She seemed to have forgotten the fierce and cruel aspect of the thunder cat. Before such furry animals, she was completely helpless to resist.
“I’m not a veterinarian.” Being the dignified Master of Death Valley, am I supposed to treat a spirit beast?
“Wuwu…” The thunder cat constantly used its paws to tug at Ming Shu’s clothes.
Ming Shu pulled her clothes back, ignoring it.
The thunder cat looked at Ming Shu, its eyes radiating hope and confusion as well as fear.
It cried for a while before leaving without the egg. But it came back quickly, placing a branch weighed with bright red fruit before Ming Shu.
“That’s fire cloud fruit,” Hui Xue exclaimed. “So many… A lot more than the Valley’s stock.”
Ming Shu picked it up to have a look. There were four fruits on one branch, each the same size of grapes. She took one to shove into her mouth.
“Miss, are you…” Hui Xue was shocked. She reached out to grab the remaining fruit from Ming Shu’s hand. “Spit it out, quickly. Miss, the fire cloud fruit can’t be eaten like this. It will kill you.” The fire cloud fruit was of strong quality and must be refined before eating.
Ming Shu dodged aside. She quickly picked off the remaining three fire cloud fruits, shoving them all into her mouth.
“…”
We’re finished , Hui Xue thought.
“Liu Feng!” Hui Xue cried. Her loud voice even quieted down the noisy people arguing nearby.
Liu Feng jumped down from the tree, staring at Ming Shu silently. Ming Shu threw away the branch and said breezily, “These may be fake fire cloud fruits. As you can see, I’m feeling very well.”
Tears were forming in Hui Xue’s eyes. She stepped forward to grab Ming Shu’s wrist and feel her pulse. It was very stable.
“How could it…” She wouldn’t be wrong, that was fire cloud fruit.
The thunder cat took the opportunity to bring another bunch back. Just as Ming Shu was about to take it, Hui Xue grabbed it first. “Miss, even if there’s no side effect, you can’t eat.”
I don’t know why Miss is fine after eating the fruit, but what if there is some sequela?
I can’t let Miss take the risk.
Ming Shu felt a little full now. After deliberating for a while, she decided not to fight with Hui Xue. She sat back in her place, picking up the egg. Slightly turning her head, she impressively encountered countless pairs of eyes looking at her.
She curled her lips and chuckled lightly. “Are you enraptured by my beauty? I will become proud if you continue to look at me this way.”
“…” Psychopath , everyone thought.
Let’s continue our arguing.
…
Finally, the debate that centered around Xiao Rufeng came to an end because of one sentence from Feng Cheng.
Xiao Rufei fell ill again. Originally Xiao Rufeng didn’t intend to save Xiao Rufei, but Feng Cheng took her aside. It seemed they made an unknown deal with each other. Then Xiao Rufeng came back to feed Xiao Rufei a Dan medicine with a cold expression.
Once she took the Dan medicine, Xiao Rufei clearly became better. But she still needed to be detoxified.
They had to leave this place as soon as possible.
Most of the people continued to move forward. But as they walked, they found themselves circling back to their original spot—the woman named Zhi Po was still sitting under a tree, fiddling with a colorful egg.
A thunder cat lay next to her, its gaze following the spinning egg. It was such a harmonious scene… Not even a little!
All because of that egg! They were besieged by thunder cats. But now the egg was being toyed with by this woman. What the hell?!
“Lord Seven, what kind of animal do you think that egg belongs to?” Xiao Rufeng stood beside Feng Cheng with crossed arms, looking at the others in the distance.
“I don’t know,” Feng Cheng answered briefly.
“Miss Xiao, do you know?” the escort asked.
“I’m a loser, how could I know.” Xiao Rufeng shrugged, mocking herself.
The corners of the escort’s mouth twitched a little. This Miss Seven of the Xiao family is truly a unique individual.
Xiao Rufeng and Feng Cheng both knew the girl over there was not easy to deal with. No matter whether what they had gone through before had something to do with her, they shouldn’t disrespect her now.
They’d better talk about this later, after leaving this place.
So they stopped the discussion about the egg.
The escort hesitated to ask. “Lord, we’ve probably been trapped here. That Zhi Po has a map, maybe we should find a way to borrow it?”
Bai Yanran wandered closer deliberately because she saw Xiao Rufeng standing near Feng Cheng. She happened to catch that Zhi Po had a map. Her beautiful eyes rolling, she immediately suggested, “Lord, let me go borrow the map. Anyway, she was my servant before.”
As long as I get the map, Lord Seven must think highly of me later.
Xiao Rufeng looked at Bai Yanran like she was an idiot.
“Xiao Rufeng, what is that look on your face?”
“It’s a look of congratulations. I wish Miss Bai good luck,” Xiao Rufeng said sarcastically.
“Just you wait!” Bai Yanran was the kind of person who couldn’t stay calm with any provocation. She would be irritable immediately after being taunted.
Leaving once Feng Cheng answered, the angry Bai Yanran directly went over to Ming Shu.
Ming Shu threw the egg to the thunder cat and adjusted her clothes. “That idiot is coming to be humiliated.”
“What?” Where’s the idiot? Why did you fix your clothes for the idiot?
Just as well, it’s not so easy to meet such a stupid female supporting role , Ming Shu thought.
It’s a rare opportunity, so let’s just make the most of it.
“Zhi Po.” Bai Yanran stood before Ming Shu and got straight to the point, saying, “You have a map of this place, right? I want to use it.”
Ming Shu smiled. “Who told you I have a map? Go ask the one who told you that. I don’t have any map.”
Bai Yanran frowned, “Don’t beat around the bush. I know you have it. How about this, you give me the map, and I will not cause you trouble again. You and I will be even later.”
Ming Shu raised her fist to her lips, coughing out a chuckle.
