Chapter 113 (1/2)

“Lao Duan, I need to discuss something with you.” Chu Yunsheng walked out of the shanty and gave Duan Danian a cigarette. Duan Danian was overwhelmed by this unexpected gesture.

All the neighbors were looking at them from far away. They were both surprised and curious. But whenever Chu Yunsheng had eye contact with them, they were either immediately scared away or bowed their heads down to pretend that they were busy doing something.

This place was truly a shanty town. Since Chu Yunsheng came to this place, he has already seen two bodies being moved out by someone. None of the important people were living here, and none of the dark warriors’ family members were living here. He could not even see a single person with clean or tidy clothing. Everyone’s face was filled with despair as if they were abandoned by this world.

The sudden appearance of a group of dark warriors and a GRD researcher made everyone look at them with fear. It was like a group of crocodiles emerging from a quiet family pool. It was totally unexpected.

Chu Han was emotionally unstable. She was physically and mentally exhausted. After Chu Yunsheng tried to calm her down for a while, she finally fell asleep.

Chu Yunsheng took out the food that he prepared earlier from a big travel bag, and gave it to Jing Tian to cook. He also asked a few of Duan Danian’s men to help her.

Rice, pork, chicken, and there were even some fresh vegetables. All of those ingredients made Duan Danian’s mind go blank.

It was almost 23:00, everyone was hungry at this time. This meal was Chu Yunsheng’s treat, he wanted to thank Duan Danian for his help.

Chu Yunsheng could finally stop worrying, although his auntie’s situation was very bad. However, compared to other people, his aunt was still very lucky. Anyway, he was here now, everything would get better.

“Lao Duan, I have to thank you for what you did today. You helped me a lot.” Although Chu Yunsheng did not like those bandits, who had killed a lot of people before, since he got into the city, they helped him a lot. No matter what kind of motivation they had, if it had not been for their help, he wouldn’t have been able to see his aunt this quick.

“Not at all, brother Chu, I got nothing to do anyway!” Duan Danian’s reply seemed to be hypocritical, and his inadvertently yawning could not cover his tiredness.

“Which dark warrior’s gang controls this area?” Chu Yunsheng pointed at the ground and suddenly asked him.

“Let me think… hmm… This is the western district, I hardly ever came here before… so… I don’t really know… Do you want me to ask around?” Duan Danian thought for a few seconds then shook his head.

Chu Yunsheng nodded, “it’s not urgent. Lao Duan, this is the second time we have met, so we are not really strangers to each other. To be honest with you. I’m a simple man, and I don’t like to beat around the bush. You and your brothers helped me a lot today. I thank you all for that.”

He paused for a second and put down the travel bag that he used as a disguise. After taking out a few boxes of biscuits and several packs of instant noodles, he carried on, “You take those stuff first. You and your brothers deserve it.”

“This…. No… no… you don’t need to…” although Duan Danian really wanted those foods, he still knew what was more important.

“Let me finish first, please.” Chu Yunsheng stuffed everything in Duan Danian’s arms and said calmly, “I know what you need from me, but unfortunately, I can’t help you.”

Chu Yunsheng’s words terminated Duan Danian’s plan straight away. Duan Danian instantly became dispirited. But he also knew that although he had helped Chu Yunsheng today, those were just small favors. It has not reached a point where Chu Yunsheng would come out to help him and take back his territories. That kind of favor was usually involved in a lot of bloodsheds.

There was a time when he could establish and enhance their relations.h.i.+ps. It was at the time when they had a conflict with Bai Yutang. However, he did not expect that Bai Yutang would back off so easily.

“Brother Chu, you don’t really need to say this. No matter what, It is my great honor to get to know a powerful man like you!” Duan Danian replied with a strained smile. But his words were sincere.
