Chapter 266 - Let Off
Chapter 266: Let Off
Chu Mohe grabbed Lan Xiang and pushed her to Chuchu. “Sis, the two of them hurt you. What do you want to do with them is up to you.”
Lan Xiang pounced and grabbed onto Chuchu’s thighs with tears running down her face as she begged, “Older sister Chuchu, please forgive me. We had no choice. If we stayed, everyone would have died.”
Lan Xiang was truly afraid; she knew that they could kill her without mercy.
Chuchu’s eyes flashed with a hint of light. No one knew what she was thinking as she replied after a while, “Let them go, they saved me once. Consider this debt paid.”
Chu Mohe was bewildered. “Sis, but they are the ones who harmed you and caused you to be captured by the people. How can you let them go?”
Lin Qing and the others did not say anything. They were unsure of what Chuchu was thinking. None of them were good people and if it were back in the past, Chuchu would have long killed the two of them.
Why did Chuchu turn kind in the apocalypse?
Despite disagreeing with her decision, they did not say anything since it was decided that the matter was for her to resolve.
Chuchu gave a shallow smile and caressed Chu Mohe on the head. “I know, but they did save me before. Otherwise, I wouldn’t be alive to see you guys. Just let them go this time. Consider it as returning grace.”
Qin Yi sneered at Chuchu’s act. If Chuchu let Zhang Hui go, she would have believed it. But she had clearly seen the skyrocketing hatred in Lan Xiang’s eyes. How could she let Lan Xiang go? But Qin Yi did not know what she was planning.
“Alright, I got it.” Chu Mohe was unhappy but complied in the end.
Zhang Hui’s eyes were filled with tears as she spoke up, “Thank you, my child.”
A burst of ‘gulu gulu’ grumbles came out. Everyone turned to look at Du Ruan, whose face had turned red. But his bronze skin made it not that obvious as he scratched his head and chuckled. “I’m hungry.”
How could they not be? They only had an apple for the entire day with Yun Huan worrying over Qin Yi, and thus the entire team did not eat at all.
Chuchu giggled and stood up as she headed to the kitchen. “Say it earlier. I can prepare some food for all of you.”
Du Ruan looked at Chuchu who was already standing, then looked at the calm Qin Yi who was seated down and whispered, “But I want to eat Benefactor’s food.”
Du Ruan thought his voice was soft, but his rough voice was not soft at all and the entire place heard him.
Chuchu was startled and stood in place awkwardly as her eyes flashed with a strange light.
Lin Qing and the others were stunned too. Before Qin Yi, when they did not have time to eat out, it was Chuchu who cooked. Out of the six of them, Chuchu’s culinary skills were a notch better than theirs.
But after living with Qin Yi for a few months, their appetite had long gotten used to Qin Yi’s food. From the bottom of their heart, they indeed preferred Qin Yi to cook for them.
Seeing that no one wished to speak up and knew that they agreed, the hatred for Qin Yi grew to its maximum in Chuchu’s heart. It was him again. Chuchu felt that Qin Yi was her nemesis and had taken everything that belonged to her once he came.
Chuchu suppressed the unhappiness and maintained a smile. “Is that so? Then let’s have younger brother Yiyi cook. I haven’t had a taste of his skills yet.”
Qin Yi raised an eyebrow and stood up gracefully. Since they had decided it would be her, she did not mind. In fact, if Chuchu was the one who cooked, she would not touch the food at all.
