414 Hunt In Mount Wu (1/2)

Lin Wenwen gave a few more glances at Mrs. Lin and Lin Wenwe. After making sure that both of them were fine, she turned to say to Du Yuanxing, ”Get him out, or I might accidentally destroy him!”

Du Yuanxing walked to Huang Tianfei, who was still lying on the ground and twisting, and said, ”He's at level-five at least. He actually got in.”

”What do you mean?” asked Lin Qiao.

”Well, Chief Wu gathered this batch of people. To ensure an opportunity of survival for these commoners, he forbade the superpowered people at level-two or above to apply for the jobs here. I'm surprised that this man actually got in. Maybe there're others like him.”

While speaking, he gave Huang Tianfei a kick. The latter was twitching stiffly, yet his eyes were rolling quickly.

”As a human being, you should have a conscience. Otherwise, you'll die miserably,” Du Yuanxing said to him. After that, he bent over, grabbed Huang Tianfei's jacket, and dragged him outside.

Lin Qiao glanced at Lin Wenwen again. Her face was hurt, yet she didn't seem to care about that. Unlike her, Mrs. Lin seemed to care a lot.

'That scum actually came here. What a coincidence!' thought Lin Qiao. But soon, she started thinking about what Du Yuanxing just said.

Chief Wu gathered this batch of people? What did that mean? What did Wu Chengyue do? And, why did he do that?

He sent the first batch of workers as a payback to Lin Qiao for saving Ling Ling's life. But, what about the second batch? What reason did he have to help Lin Qiao further?

Lin Qiao couldn't figure it out, so she turned and went back upstairs.

Earlier on, she grasped a familiar scent from upstairs, so she came down with curiosity to see what happened. To her surprise, she saw that scum trying to take Tongtong away in front of so many people.

Upstairs, she went to Liu Jun's room and found that the latter was checking Tongtong's arm. Tongtong's wrist which was finally not scrawny anymore was now very red, even a little bruised.

The little boy was sitting on the bed and crying.

Lin Qiao frowned slightly and said, ”That b*stard really doesn't care about the kid's feelings. How did you end up with a guy like that?”

Liu Jun dropped her eyelids and sighed, ”He saved my life once, and helped me a lot. I thought that he was a good guy. However, after we got together, he began to show his ugly nature. But at that time, it was already too late for me to regret.”

Lin Qiao nodded knowingly, ”He lied to you? Many men do that.”

”I let him go this time to pay him back for saving my life. I have nothing to do with him from now on,” said Liu Jun.

Lin Qiao gave her a glance and said, ”You offered him yourself. You didn't owe him anything. You even bore him a son. He just didn't treasure all that.”

…

Next day, Yuan Tianxing's people guided the second batch of workers to the construction site. With more people, the work was getting done more efficiently.

Lin Qiao led Qiu Lili, Xie Dong, and Shen Yujen out again. This time, they weren't looking for supplies, but for land.

They went out to look for land suitable for farming.

The Upper City District was mostly occupied by buildings. However, there was a scenic spot named Mount Wu. Some lands around the mountain should be good enough for growing crops.

Lin Qiao planned to go there and take a look.

She picked that area also because Mount Wu wasn't far away, and was right inside the Upper City District. Moreover, she hadn't been eating any meat for a very long time!

Thinking of meat, she couldn't help but lick her lips.

”What are you thinking about?” Qiu Lili looked at her and asked while thinking.

Lin Qiao laughed, ”I'm thinking that I haven't had any meat for a long time. Today, we'll get into the mountain and see what food we might find.”
