Chapter 110: 110

110 It Should Have Been Like This

If she had not angered Du Yue, Du Yue would not have pointed a gun at her, and she would not have peed her pants. She had brought this upon herself. Strictly speaking, this matter had nothing to do with Du Yue. She was just trying to scare Wang Tong. As for what happened after that, it was an accidental chain reaction and had nothing to do with Du Yue.

Zuo Mingdong’s men were quick with their work. It did not take long for them to count the animals that Du Yue and He Xing had killed. There were 15 boars, 25 wolves, and 12 hyenas in total. All these wild animals could be exchanged for nearly 20,000 contribution points. Zuo Mingdong had brought some cards with him when he left the base, but it was still not enough.

“I’ll give you a card with 10,000 yuan in it first. I’ll give you the rest when I get back to the base, okay?” He Xing took the card with a smile. “Sure. We’ve known each other for so long. I can trust you on such a small matter.”

Zuo Mingdong was an official of the base, so he could not run away. Besides, the base still needed He Xing’s help in many areas of weapon research. It was not worth it to do He Xing dirty over some contribution points.

Zuo Mingdong did not know whether he should be happy or speechless when he heard what He Xing said.

“Since we’re done, I’ll be going back. You guys should go back too. It’s too cold outside. Don’t stay out for too long.”

Zuo Mingdong nodded. “Mhm! Just now… Ah, it’s nothing. You should go back first!”

He Xing was not curious at all when he heard Zuo Mingdong’s hesitant words. He did not ask anything more and turned to walk toward the room. Looking at He Xing’s back, Zuo Mingdong was a little dazed, but he came back to his senses after a moment.

The two of them had known each other for a long time. He Xing usually looked like he had no temper and was easy to talk to, but in fact, he was not close to anyone. Zuo Mingdong had thought that He Xing was a person who was indifferent to feelings. However, it seemed that he had misjudged He Xing. Thinking of how He Xing and Du Yue had stood side by side, Zuo Mingdong felt like it was how it should be. These two people gave off the exact same aura.

When He Xing returned to the room, he saw Du Yue warming herself by the fire. She was holding a wooden stick with two sweet potatoes on it. She was roasting them over the fire, and the room was already filled with the fragrance of sweet potatoes. When He Xing caught a whiff of the aroma, he suddenly felt famished.

The little bit of food he had in the afternoon had long since been completely digested after the battle just now. He Xing strode over. Before he could sit down, Du Yue said, “I’ve boiled some water. Wash your hands first.” He Xing looked in the direction she was pointing and saw that the pot was half-filled with water. It was still steaming.

He Xing squatted down. Du Yue picked up the pot handle before he could and tilted the pot. He Xing reached out and washed his hands with the water that was being poured out.

After washing his hands, He Xing sat down beside Du Yue and opened his backpack to take something out. “How can sweet potatoes be enough? We must have some meat!”

Du Yue looked at He Xing and saw that he was holding a packet of vacuum-packed roasted hare. Du Yue could not help but laugh. “Did you bring all the hare meat from your house?”

Looking at He Xing’s hiking bag that was half the height of a human, Du Yue even suspected that it was full of meat. Just as she was deep in thought, He Xing unzipped the mountaineering bag and showed the contents inside to her. “Look!”

Du Yue followed his gaze and looked into the bag. As expected, more than half of his bag was used to store hare meat. He had brought a lot of each type. Du Yue facepalmed herself. “As expected of you.”

He Xing smiled shyly and tore open the packaging of the roasted hare. He then took out a stick from his bag and skewered the roasted hare meat on it. “Hares are so cute. They taste best when made into barbecue…”

Du Yue rolled her eyes at him. “You’re a devil.” However, even if he did not say it, Du Yue knew that roasted hare meat was the best. Otherwise, she would not have bought so many packets of vacuum-packed roasted hare. However, Du Yue was a little curious about how He Xing knew about this.

“Have you roasted a hare before?” Du Yue asked, looking at He Xing with confusion in her eyes. The roasted hare smelled so good. The houses they lived in were all built the same, so it was impossible for them to be airtight. The smell would definitely spread out. She lived next door to He Xing, so why had she never smelled it before?

“Of course! I’ve roasted it a few times!” He Xing smiled. “Are you wondering why you’ve never smelled the fragrance when you’re just next door?”

“Yeah, it’s a little strange,” Du Yue said honestly.

“Because I have an exhaust fan at home.”

Du Yue looked at He Xing even more strangely. She had used a range hood before, but the principle of a range hood was to draw out the smell from the kitchen and send it outside. Did that not mean more people would be able to smell the fragrance?
