Chapter 64
Xiao Feng: !!0
"Am I wrong?" Yun Xiaoxiao shrugged.0
"First of all, let's not even talk about whether we have something as precious as poison.0
Even if we did poison you, how would that benefit us?0
Just for this house?0
Can this house withstand a zombie attack?0
Why would we waste poison and meat to kill you for a small house that can't even hold off zombies?0
Also, nowadays many people are willing to betray friends and kill family just for a bite to eat. Think about it, wouldn't it be a waste to use all this meat just to kill you?0
Moreover, do we even need poison to kill you?"0
Xiao Feng looked at the smiling Yun Xiaoxiao, then glanced at Lu Chen and Nie Yizhou sitting in the living room.0
Both were injured, but their spirits seemed good.0
When he tried to burn that chatterbox earlier, the guy moved away in a split second, incredibly fast. He must be hiding some special ability.0
As for the other guy with the icy face, just from his aura alone, one could tell he was no ordinary person.0
And then there was this little girl in front of him.0
Although she looked cute and innocent,0
He had clearly seen how she deliberately stirred up trouble at the dog compound.0
She was clearly a black-hearted little dumpling with a white, tender exterior but filled with black sesame on the inside!0
Moreover, for a child around five years old to come all the way from the dog compound, that itself was extraordinary.0
He knew she was right.0
If the three of them wanted to kill him, they probably... wouldn't even need poison.0
Besides, in times like these?0
Wasting a bowl of meat to kill one person would be far too extravagant!0
"If you want to show gratitude, one bowl of meat isn't enough."0
Xiao Feng said as he walked straight to the dining table.0
He consciously grabbed a stool and sat down in the empty spot.0
"Eat, don't be shy."0
He picked up the chopsticks and put some meat in his mouth without hesitation.0
Mmm, delicious!0
Yun Xiaoxiao: ......0
Nie Yizhou: ......0
Lu Chen: .0
And so, the four of them 'enjoyably' finished this luxurious lunch in such a bizarre atmosphere.0
After the meal, Xiao Feng's fondness for Yun Xiaoxiao had increased to 10%.0
Indeed, the charm of food is endless!0
"Well... considering your sincerity, you can stay here temporarily, until... your wounds heal."0
After saying this, Xiao Feng brought a blanket from the room to the living room.0
"I'll sleep outside, you can have the bed."0
Nie Yizhou walked over and patted his shoulder.0
"Little bro, you're actually quite nice."0
"Get lost, who's your little bro?" Xiao Feng impatiently shrugged off Nie Yizhou's hand.0
"Hey, I compliment you and you get cocky."0
The sound of their bickering could be heard from inside.0
Meanwhile, Yun Xiaoxiao led Lu Chen to the bathroom.0
She closed the door and took out a large bathtub from her space, then filled it with a lot of spirit spring water.0
Lu Chen looked on curiously but didn't interrupt.0
After filling the tub, Yun Xiaoxiao tried to turn on the shower head.0
As expected, the water was already cut off.0
She had no choice but to take out several buckets of water from her space.0
"Big brother, you can soak in here," Yun Xiaoxiao pointed at the bathtub.0
"I mentioned this to you guys before, this water can improve your constitution. You can use it during your recovery period. It's also good for healing your wounds."0
"Xiaoxiao, why do you trust me so much?" Lu Chen suddenly asked as Yun Xiaoxiao was about to leave.0
If it were an ordinary child, he might think she was just pure-hearted and had no defenses against him.0
But after interacting these past two days, he clearly knew that this little girl was smarter than anyone!0
She even had her guard up against Nie Yizhou.0
But with him, she had absolutely no reservations!0
Hearing the 'Xiaoxiao' from behind her, Yun Xiaoxiao's face lit up with a smile.0
That familiar feeling was back.0
In her previous life, big brother had called her that too!0
The corners of her lips curved upwards as she turned back.0
"Because you are you."0
Because it's you, so I trust you.0
Because it's you, so I'm good to you.0
"Did we know each other before?" Lu Chen asked what was on his mind.0
Seeing his genuine confusion and that he wouldn't rest until he got an answer, Yun Xiaoxiao was silent for a moment, then briefly recounted the events of her previous life.0
As he listened to Yun Xiaoxiao's words, Lu Chen's usually calm face showed a hint of shock.0
Then, suddenly, everything made sense.0
If that was the case, it explained everything.0
Why her moves and techniques were so similar to his, why her behavior and actions sometimes resembled his, why she trusted him so much, why she had insisted on following him from the moment they met, refusing to leave no matter how he tried to drive her away, and why, despite her young age, her thoughts were so mature.0
One had to admit, some things were destined.0
Whether in the previous life or this one.0
"Big brother, I'm sorry, in the previous life you died saving me..."0
"No need to apologize. If I did that, it means I was willing. If it was of my own free will, there's no question of who owes who. Don't burden yourself psychologically."0
This was the first time Lu Chen had spoken so much at once.0
Yun Xiaoxiao knew he was trying to comfort her.0
"This matter, apart from me, don't mention it to anyone else in the future. I'll also keep this secret."0
After all, reincarnation sounded too incredible.0
"Mm, I understand, big brother."0
At this moment, both of their hearts opened up.0
An unspoken understanding lingered between them.0
After Yun Xiaoxiao left, Lu Chen locked the door and soaked in the bathtub.0
Soon, he felt changes in his body.0
His body became lighter, as if both body and mind had been purified.0
The strength and resilience of his body also increased significantly.0
He could clearly feel the two gunshot wounds healing rapidly!0
At the same time, he finally understood why Yun Xiaoxiao had left several buckets of water.0
The smell on his body was...0
simply unbearable!0
He lifted the water bucket with one hand, rinsed himself clean, and then went out.0
But there was still an unpleasant odor lingering in the bathroom.0
He walked to the old well in the courtyard, opened the cover, and lowered the rope-tied wooden bucket to draw water.0
This well probably hadn't been used for many years; moss had grown on the well cover.0
Using buckets of water to wash the floor would be too wasteful.0
He had noticed this well earlier, which came in handy now.0
"Chen bro, what are you doing?" Nie Yizhou came out of the house with his arm in a sling.0
Seeing Lu Chen drawing water, he leaned against the side to watch curiously.0
Having grown up in the city, this was the first time he had seen an ancient well like in textbooks, and he found it quite novel.0
Later, he followed Lu Chen to the bathroom.0
As soon as he got close, he pinched his nose and let out an exaggerated cry.0
"Holy crap! What's that smell? It's so stinky!"0
Lu Chen: ......0
