Chapter 40: A Cold Dinner

The sky was covered in pitch black, and large dark clouds pressed over the camp.

The drizzle was drizzling, the wind was blowing, and the tin wall panels on the outskirts of the city center were ringing.

The sky is covered with white light, intertwined with the deep blue black sky. It is struggling, unwilling to let the day go away like this, and replace the light with the night.

On the wheat field, the sparse orange lights are shining. Hazy in the rain and mist, like a fluttering firefly.

"I see." Quintes nodded, and put the cold glass back on the table.

In Quenjes' manor, on the first floor, everyone gathered to eat. And because of the large number of people, they divided the people into two large tables and sat down.

"I hope you'll think about it again, Mr. Quunjes." Yu finished speaking. He sighed, as if preoccupied.

"A good suggestion. But ......" Quintes frowned and thought for a moment, propping one of his elbows on the corner of the table and touching his chin with the palm of his hand.

"Shhh Kai Ye slammed the bowl on the table, and he looked angrily at Yu who was sitting on the side.

"Yo, what's wrong with this one?" Everyone sitting at this table looked up at Kaiye together.

Yu turned around and saw Kai Ye's indignant look coming at him. As if Kai Ye had become the lord here, he smiled as if he was entertaining.

Quintes hinted at Kaiye with his eyes, but Kaiye didn't pay attention to it, and he just said it according to his thoughts.

"What's wrong? Scold. Kai Ye scolded him angrily and said: "That one is called Yu, I advise you to go back, we have nothing to talk about at all!" You ...... all about merging camps."

"Kaiye! How can you come nonsense! Quintes slammed the table and roared.

"Don't blame my Blood Demon Knife for not having long eyes! I was the first ......"

"Kaiye!" Quinner continued to scold, his body shuddering.

Jia sat quietly as she drank the vegetable soup. Regardless of the surrounding environment, carefully pick up the vegetables and eat them.

Sitting at the other table were the bandaged Nian Qian, Kleist, Aisha, and Boss Yan, the second and the third. A few people bowed their heads, but no one dared to say anything.

Qian Nian knocked down a piece of fish, but he was just about to clip it, but it was grabbed by Aisha's chopsticks and ran away.

"......" Nian snorted angrily, and Aisha stuck her tongue out at him.

Quintes and Kaiye looked at each other, and the two looked at each other angrily, neither of them would let anyone take a step in this matter.

In the kitchen of another room, Yeon-hee leaned against the door, eavesdropping on the quarrel outside.

Miller's stir-fry rustled so much that she couldn't hear what they were arguing about.

"Xiaoxi, Xi?" Miller turned his head, only to realize that she had run to the door to eavesdrop, this little girl......

"What?" Yeon-hee suddenly came back to her senses and turned around to find Miller calling her.

"Come here, come over here, help me out." Miller removed the towel from his shoulder, reached out and grabbed some of the ingredients from the bottle and threw them into the pot.

"Here it is, Uncle Miller."

"Scoop the water first - hey, use that basin, I'll strain the vegetables."

"Okay!"

Pour water into the pot and let the smoke fade. Miller crossed his waist and leaned his back against the table behind him.

"Uncle Miller." Yanxi brought a bowl of scooped water over and put it on the table. She grabbed a handful of vegetables and helped wash them herself.

"Hmm. What's wrong, Xiaoshio? Miller looked back at her.

"They...... What the hell is going on? ”

Miller paused, thinking he was saying that his food was not tasty. "Huh? Oh oops...... They're definitely the same again. ”

"What's the matter?"

Miller turned his back away from the table, grabbing a spoon and flipping through the hot dishes in the pot. He lowered his voice and said, "The camp merges." ”

"I don't understand." Yanxi shook her head and glanced back at Miller, seeing that he was busy flipping the pot. She shook the dish lightly and put it aside in the basket.

"Let's leave it alone. Anywayβ€”" Miller interrupted Yanxi's interest as he closed the lid and snapped the spoon to the cutting board. "I'm not going to leave this camp."

"Neither will I." Yanxi hurriedly added to explain herself.

At this time, Yanxi clearly saw a faint smile floating on Miller's lips, and she didn't know what it meant.

"Actually...... Quenjes also thought about merging the camps for the sake of everyone's good. It's to take us and go to other camps to live with people. ”

"But Kaiye's temper is very big, I'll listen." Yanxi deliberately mentioned Kaiye in front of Miller, she hugged her arms and sniffed the fragrance coming from the pot.

"Of course there will be tempers." Miller looked up, eyes fixed on the chandelier. Under the light, there was a halo of orange.

"What?"

"Because there are so many people in that camp, and Kaiye has a bit of a holiday......"

"Could it be Yashu ......?"

"Shh

Miller turned around in a panic, interrupting Yanxi's suspicions. Apparently, she guessed the answer correctly.

Yanxi nodded politely, blinked, and obediently closed her mouth.

Outside.

The air was filled with the strong smell of gunpowder, and the three big men at the table, except for Jia, who was eating, kept their heads shut and didn't say a word.

"I, and my little companion: Jia, are not all the way to that camp, please don't misunderstand." The meaning of Yu is obvious, and Chong Kaiye explained.

"I just wanted to help you, for the sake of a better tomorrow for all of you - it doesn't seem like I need to." Yu continued to speak.

Kai Ye snorted, sarcastically sneered at the air, and replied coldly: "Okay." Then I will take my leave, both of you. ”

Yu stared at Kai Ye's side face, and the muscles on his face twitched.

The crowd was silent and reached an impasse.

"Let's chirp, let's chirp......" Jia buried her head and continued to eat vegetables desperately. She seems to be very casual and uninhibited.

As for Yu, he couldn't help but not turn his face in order to have a full meal for Jianeng.

He gripped the white transparent hedron in his trembling palm and buried it deeper into his pocket......

Early the next morning, the two didn't even say goodbye, but hurriedly and reluctantly packed up and left the camp.
