Chapter 25
Ask Yu Miao for It
Yu Ruo waited for a long time. From time to time, he would look at Yu Su from the corner of his eye, but he realized that Yu Su had no intention of delivering food at all.
Occasionally, a breeze would blow past the mountain, and the fragrance of the food on Yu Su’s side would reach their side. The two of them could not help but swallow their saliva.
“Yu Ruo, do you want us to go over ourselves? It’s not good for us to wait for them to send the food over. Is that why they’re angry and don’t plan to let us eat?” Ye Chang nudged Yu Ruo with his elbow and asked in a low voice.
“Of course she should send it over. It’s what she should do.”
Ye Chang was speechless. He did not know why he felt so annoyed with Yu Ruo. However, the hunger and his stomach started to twitch. He could not help but waste his time on Yu Ruo. Since he was not going, he would go himself.
“Um, Yu Su, where’s our share? Just give it to me directly. I’ll bring it over.”
Yu Su had noticed Ye Chang’s arrival and roughly knew his motive.
At this moment, she raised her head and held a big bowl in her hand. Her eyes were innocent and sincere, as if she didn’t understand why Ye Chang would ask such a question. “Of course you want your lunch from Yu Miao and Shen Chun. I’m only in charge of our team’s food.”
When Ye Chang heard her answer, he suddenly remembered that Yu Miao and Shen Chun did not come back with them. He originally thought that the two of them had stayed at home to slack off. From the looks of it, their plan had failed.
Xiao Han and the others also raised their heads and stared straight at Ye Chang. They were like sharp blades, making Ye Chang feel uncomfortable. He only wanted to escape as soon as possible.
“I’m sorry, um, Yu Miao and the others didn’t come back. I thought they asked you to help bring the food here.” After saying that, he didn’t wait for everyone to answer and quickly walked back to Yu Ruo’s side.
Seeing that he was empty-handed, Yu Ruo’s eyes were filled with confusion. “Where’s lunch?”
“Yu Miao and Shen Chun are cooking, right?” Ye Chang’s voice was still filled with embarrassment.
“What? How would Yu Miao and Shen Chun know how to cook? Yu Su is really too selfish. I’m her brother. No matter what, Yu Miao is her sister. How can she be at ease to let Yu Miao touch those dangerous things in the kitchen? What if she gets injured? This will not do, I’ll go look for her.” After saying that, Yu Ruo stood up and prepared to settle the score with Yu Su angrily.
“Forget it. What identity will you use to go over and question her?With Yu Su’s personality, it’s very likely that she will directly reveal Yu Miao’s background in front of everyone. At that time, what kind of impact will it have? Moreover, can Yu Miao be hurt again in this matter?”
Ye Chang was a little angry. He was no longer as gentle as before. There was even a hint of dominance in his words.
Yu Ruo stopped in his tracks, but he still felt indignant in his heart. He kicked the ground, raising the sand. Then, he remembered that Yu Miao had yet to return and was worried that something would happen to his precious sister. He did not care about the mission and hurriedly rushed home.
Not long after, he saw Yu Miao and Shen Chun rushing over with a few lunch boxes.
Seeing that his sister was still completely fine, Yu Ruo was relieved, but he still quickly walked over to take the lunch box from Yu Miao.
“You guys made your own food?”
“Yes! Actually, it’s quite simple. It’s just a little difficult to start a fire.” Yu Miao nodded obediently. There was a hint of excitement in her voice. Perhaps she was happy that she had successfully made a meal on her first try.
When she reached the field, she quickly opened the lunch box and handed it to Yu Ruo. She then opened another one and gave it to Ye Chang.
“Hurry up and try it. Does it taste good?” The food in the lunchbox was very simple. There were only some green garlic shoots of different sizes mixed with white rice. There was nothing else.
Yu Ruo was also very excited to be able to eat the first meal Yu Miao had cooked. Ye Chang also threw his frustration to the back of his mind.
He picked up a piece of garlic and put it into his mouth. There was no taste at all. The garlic was a little hard. After taking a bite, a spicy taste rushed into his nose. Yu Ruo’s first reaction was to spit it out, but when he saw Yu Miao’s expectant gaze, he forcefully endured it. However, he quickly picked up another mouth of rice with his chopsticks, trying to cover the taste.
After taking a few bites of the rice, he realized that there were soft and hard rice grains inside, as if it was not cooked.
Seeing that Yu Ruo and Ye Chang’s expressions were getting worse and worse, Yu Miao also tasted it, but she spat it out directly. Large tears spewed out.
“I’m sorry, I can’t do anything well. Stop eating.”
