Chapter 168: Mou Yu Village – Thanks
Lu Li thought about it carefully and realized that Ji Yu didn’t like her very much.

It seemed that since entering this copy, Ji Yu asked to talk to Lan Tong. Lu Li appeared several times by chance, and Ji Yu quickly recognized him.

Every time I recognize him, my attitude makes a 180-degree turn.

Lu Li cursed inwardly.

Lan Tong, the arrogant servant, is just as arrogant as her master.

She didn’t take it to heart. After yawning, she returned to her space and prepared to sleep.

Lu Li was afraid of being embarrassed when seeing Lan Tong, so in order to avoid embarrassment, she had been resisting the urge to look into the space.

Unexpectedly, as soon as I came in, I saw Lan Tong sleeping soundly with a pillow in her arms.

I don’t know when I fell asleep.

“You have a big heart.”

Lu Li cursed in annoyance, then changed into his pajamas and lay back on the sofa.

She tossed and turned, unable to sleep, and played games on her tablet for a long time.

It seemed as if his eyes were always staring at the screen, but after looking at the screen for a while, his gaze unconsciously flew to Lan Tong.

I stayed up until dawn, then put down the tablet with dark circles under my eyes.

She pulled out a thin quilt, crawled into it and lay there for a long time.

Finally, he got up, tiptoed to Lan Tong and lay down beside her. Under the pretext of covering her with a quilt, he hugged her waist from behind.

Her face was buried deep in her hair, so her expression couldn’t be seen. She only leaned over slowly, pressed against the back of her neck, and spoke in a very low voice.

“Okay, hug.”

After saying that, I finally fell asleep peacefully.

……

It was daybreak, and a low, whistling whistle sounded steady and distant.

The smell of cooking smoke flows through the paths in the village.

Lan Tong woke up and felt something heavy around her waist. She reached out to grab it and found it was Lu Li’s hand.

Only then did she realize that Lu Li was shamelessly sleeping next to her. They were covered with the same quilt and were so close to each other.

Lan Tong:?
Without further ado, she kicked Lu Li out after she realized what was going on.

Lu Li woke up in pain and sleepiness, without even opening his eyes, because of the severe pain in his abdomen, he couldn’t help but grit his teeth and said, “Fuck! Who is so bold as to let go of me?”

“your dad.”

After Lan Tong finished speaking, he left the space and occupied the body.

She remembered it very clearly. She was so sleepy yesterday that she finally fell asleep. Lu Li kept talking to her for a long time, but she didn’t hear what he said. She only remembered that he snatched her pillow.

Lan Tong felt uncomfortable without a pillow in her arms. She tried to stay awake and shouted for a long time, but Lu Li refused to give her one.

Finally, because his arm was numb from the lack of a pillow, Lan Tong barely woke up and picked up the pillow to continue sleeping.

It was obvious that the snake demon had not been dealt with.

He did so many stupid things to disturb her sleep, and he still had the nerve to sleep next to her.

Lan Tong resisted the urge to scold her and just left, which was the greatest respect for her.

Lu Li opened his eyes dazedly and saw that Lan Tong had taken over his body.

Thinking about what happened between them last night, she always felt a little guilty about her secret love for Lan Tong, and her tone of voice softened unconsciously, and she did not retort like she usually did.

“Who pissed you off so early in the morning?”

“Don’t bother.”

“…”

Lu Li had long been accustomed to Lan Tong’s behavior. He didn’t get angry even when she scolded him. He rolled over on the sofa and continued to sleep. Lan Tong anticipated Ji Yu’s knock on the door and opened the door in advance, which actually scared Ji Yu.

“Why did you wake up so early today?”

“My arm is numb.”

Lan Tong said this and walked around him and went downstairs.

There were even fewer people coming to get food today. The yard was deserted and there wasn’t even a woman to be seen.

Lucas and a few others were eating their boxed lunches in the yard. The talkative Aidou Guoren was now like a mute. He no longer picked and chose whether the food contained kimchi or not. He just lowered his head, as if he was stimulated by something, and ate obediently.

Axel and a teammate were taking lunch boxes and signing for tasks. When they saw Lan Tong, they seemed a little excited and wanted to go up and talk to him.

However, due to the large number of people around, he had to suppress this impulse. He smiled politely at Lan Tong and Ji Yu, then left with the task list.

When Aqiang saw Lantong, his cold gray eyes finally lit up a little.

However, he was a little timid to face it. He didn’t speak actively and kept looking at her avoidantly.

While Ji Yu was getting his lunch box, Lan Tong took the initiative to ask A Qiang.

“Brother Qiang, what are the tasks for today?”

These words seemed to become the first axe to break the ice.

A Qiang finally let go of the tension in his heart. He breathed a sigh of relief unconsciously, but still didn’t dare to meet Lan Tong’s eyes. He said.

“No need to look… Your teammates gave me the herbs when they were getting food last night. The village chief was very touched by your willingness to go up the mountain to collect herbs. As a thank you, I’ll let you rest for a few days and do the mission the day before the bonfire party.”

Lan Tong gave an unexpected smile.

“The village chief is so nice, but… is there anything special about doing the task the day before the bonfire party?”

Ah Qiang smiled awkwardly and said, “It’s nothing special. It’s just that there are a lot of things to prepare for the bonfire party. Every household in the village has to prepare in advance, and the venue has to be decorated. The village chief is worried that there won’t be enough people.”

“So this is ah.”

“You and your companions can rest here for the next few days. If you are bored, you can go for a walk around the village, or ask me to take you around. You don’t have to worry about meals, because you will get a share of the meals I deliver every day.”

Since the village chief was eager to give it, Lan Tong didn’t bother to be polite.

“Thank you then.”

The two went back upstairs and had breakfast in Lan Tong’s room again.

Because of yesterday’s roast chicken incident, Lan Tong was a little wary of the food given by Aqiang. She touched the amulet on her hand and found it was gone, so she took it out from the space and tied it back.

I walked around the lunch box and there was no sign of drugs, so it looked like they hadn’t been drugged.

Ji Yu took out two apples from the space and placed them in front of Lan Tong. He then took the lunch box and said, “After Wei Yi left yesterday, I seemed to see A Qiang.”

Lan Tong paused.

“Are you sure? How did you see that?”

The weird things usually happen in the early morning, especially from 12 to 2 in the morning. The village is usually plunged into darkness at 7 or 8 o’clock, and the villagers don’t come out after 9 o’clock. What is Aqiang doing here so late?

“I’m not 100% sure, but it looks very similar. But I also feel that there is a difference between him and Aqiang. The other person in your body tricked me out of the house, so I saw it.”

Ji Yu finished his words expressionlessly and began to carefully recall the figure he saw last night.

I must have seen it right. The man was wearing a white sweatshirt with a hint of red on the back.

There are not many young men as tall and strong as Aqiang in the village, and even fewer who can wear a shirt of the same condition.

He vaguely remembered that Aqiang and Aqing were wearing the same sweatshirt, which seemed to be issued from somewhere, with red words printed on the back.

“It’s either Aqiang or Aqing. It should be the former. After all, he put drugs in the food he brought you in the evening.”

Lan Tong’s attention was all focused on the previous sentence.

“Were you deceived by Lu Li?”
