This Damned Thirst for Survival

Chapter 99

When he pointed at the Chi family with the mole on their nose, their expressions almost changed and they were exposed.

But the momentary rejection on his face was sensitively caught by Jiang Luo, whose eyes flashed with amusement as he coughed twice more, “Is this man unwilling? It’s strange that someone wouldn’t want to eat blood eel when it’s such a good thing.

When the others heard this, their eyes went to the Chi family, and the captain also looked at them with suspicion in his eyes. With so many people looking at them, the Chi family forced themselves to smile, “Blood eel is such a precious thing, you just have a bad throat, bear with it and eat it.”

Jiang Luo frowned and said unhappily, “Are you asking me to take it when I’m not feeling well? I’ve said my throat hurts, what do you mean?”

Jiang Luo glanced at the last seat on the table and gave a pout, his eyes impatient, “I said I’d let you have it, so I let you have it. Don’t be polite with me, the captain said it was okay, didn’t he?”

The captain had seen many rich people, and Jiang Luo’s capricious behaviour at this point was normal in his eyes. He smiled in a normal way and said, “If you think it’s okay, then of course it’s okay.”

Chi’s family’s expression was getting stiff, and he was still trying to postpone it, “I’m too embarrassed to ask for it ……”

The rich man standing next to him as a spectator was so angry that he wanted to pull him down and take over himself, and the man sitting at the table was also impatient, “In the business world, you fight so much one by one, but at this critical moment you give way to the other. What are you so embarrassed about? Why don’t you just pay him the original price he quoted you? The blood eel is a priceless thing, why are you still dilly-dallying?”

Seeing the captain’s eyes grow darker, the family swallowed their excuses and had to go over and sit down. He had to smile and thank Jiang Luo even though his face was hard, and that was not all.

Jiang Luo felt as if it wasn’t enough and said, “Let’s be businessmen and do things quickly, you can transfer the money to me now.”

He beckoned a waiter, “Go and get the pos machine from my room.”

He also smiled and told people, “The pos fees are low and there is no limit, so you can just swipe it.”

Ikea family: “……” His face was turning blue with anger.

After receiving a large sum of money from the Chi family, Jiang Luo lazily stepped aside as a spectator and watched as the Chi family devoured the blood eel.

The Ikemen, of course, do not eat their food so obediently. He plays a dark trick and eats the fish out of his mouth, while a spot in his sleeve slowly bulges and gradually gets wet with fish soup.

Jiang Luo did not point it out again.

Jiang Luo could see this, but other ordinary people could not, and he was too lazy to bother with them.

Jiang Luo leans back against the wall, his mind drifting even further. The heat spurts from the end of his nose to his lips, burning a searing heat.

But in addition to the heat, he felt a chill from all sides, a combination of hot and cold, and a sore throat.

Jiang Luo rarely gets sick, but when he does, it comes with a vengeance, and he opens his lips slightly to breathe in the cold air inside.

The dark-haired young man’s appearance was unmistakable, his eyes calm, his expression stoic, the heat accident coming from him almost indistinguishable from the next man unless he was close enough to feel it.

Not even the Chi family could see that something was wrong with him.

The blood eel was brought to the table by the waiter, a tiny blood-red fry inside a milky white broth.

So this was the female fry. When they cut open the belly of the victim in the bilge, it was full of black fry that were so red that they were black, and they had never seen a fry so bright red.

The plates were placed in front of the wealthy, who had long since lost all pretensions to dining etiquette and were eager to plunge their knives and forks into the fish fry and gobble it up, almost without waiting for the plates to drop.

Not only the fish, but also the fish soup, as if they were afraid to let go of a drop, for fear that if they didn’t get it in their mouths somewhere, it wouldn’t do what it was supposed to do.

The fresh aroma is rich and pungent, tickling your hunger.

The waiters also served food and drinks to the spectators and invited them to sit down at another table. But smelling the blood eels, it was clear that these people had little appetite for ordinary food, and they looked at the table of ten with envy and jealousy in their eyes as they hastily consumed some of their meals with a lack of appetite.

Jiang Luo didn’t use the meals, he just took a glass of plain water to soothe his vaguely sore throat.

The ripe blood eels are strangely fishy, but the eggs and fry smell almost addictive, as if they knew how to tempt humans by nature. Jiang Luo watches as the rich eat the blood eels, his mind spinning slowly, remembering which ones they have eaten and which ones they have not.

As a student of Bai Hua University, it was his logical duty to protect innocent citizens from harm during his mission in cooperation with the police. But even if Jiang Luo rushed out now and told the rich people that they could not eat the blood eels, they would not believe him. If they didn’t believe him, Jiang Luo would have exposed himself completely, and the loss would not be worth the gain.

Jiang Luo, who would not have done such a stupid thing even if his brain had been burnt out, was watching them eat the bloody eel without even a hint of a waver in his heart.

Jiang Luo was in no mood to sympathise with these people, who were not known to him and who were not good people for bringing civilians on board.

Soon the lunch was over.

Jiang Luo followed the crowd out of the restaurant, and on his way out, he walked right into the path of the Chi family. The Chi family gave him a grim look and, with a leathery smile, bumped him out the door.

Jiang Luo narrowed his eyes, knowing that they had a back-up plan.

He headed for the room.

All the way to the boat, Jiang Luo was thinking about the purpose of his family’s visit.

They wanted to kill Jiang Luo, no doubt about it, but why did they go to the trouble of making Jiang Luo eat the bloody eel in such a roundabout way, rather than some other, more effective way?

Is it that you can’t kill him yet, or do you want to use him for something?

The path from the dining room to the room is extraordinarily long, and Jiang Luo walks on, but suddenly bends over with one hand on the wall to catch his hot breath.

Sweat slid down his face and Jiang Luo’s eyes became dizzy as the heat inside him suddenly surged upwards, hitting his already sick body for no apparent reason and making his legs go weak for a moment.

So hot.

Jiang Luo rests his head on his hand against the wall, his eyes closed and his brow furrowed.

Something is not right ……

The feeling was very similar to the one he had felt yesterday after tasting the blood of the bloody eel, and Jiang Luo fought his brain to think about it, fixing on the unspoken but definitely not kind smile of the Ikemen and the glass of water the waiter had brought him in the restaurant.

He seems to have been drugged.

Jiang Luo pursed his lips tightly as he opened his eyes, his hostility deep. He braced himself to stand up and wobbled towards his room.

Shit.

Are the Chi family sick in the head? Why would they give him such a drug?!

The preference was also at a time when he was ill.

Jiang Luo bit down hard on his tongue and the taste of blood spilled out of his lips, which cleared his head for a moment.

Jiang Luo’s heart was racing, but two men suddenly leapt out in front of him and blocked his path.

Jiang Luo’s face was sweaty as he looked on, his face expressionless but threatening as his red cheeks plummeted and he looked woefully out of place.

His voice trailed off as he asked, “Who are you?”

“Who are we?” The slightly taller of the two sneered twice and spat on the ground, “We’re your enemies, and you finally got hit today.”

“The old man even got screwed by him,” the shorter man was bloated and fat, his overgrown black hair covering his eyes grimly, “enough to screw us out of two bucks, boss, and I’m going to teach him a lesson first.”

The tall man’s face was also unpleasant but he stopped the short man, “We drugged him to draw out Chi You, what are you fighting for? Let’s get Chi You first.”

“Shit, didn’t I tell you Chi You’s been stalking him? I can’t believe he hasn’t shown up after his old lover turned out like this.”

The short man stifled his anger, “I see, so let’s get him to that room we’ve prepared first.”

Their conversation reached Jiang Luo’s ears a beat too slow.

Jiang Luo thought, “It’s fucking Chi You again.

And fucking because of his lies.

His body felt like it was on ice and fire, so uncomfortable that he wanted to lie down on the bed to relieve himself. Jiang Luo took two deep breaths and a voice popped out from between his teeth, ” Chi You ……”

I can’t wait to cramp and bleed this evil spirit and fry it in a frying pan.

The two men closed in on Jiang Luo, and as they reached the dark-haired youth, they were startled by the heat from Jiang Luo’s body, and the taller man scolded, “How much did you drug? Don’t get him killed.”

The short man frowned, “I’ve only been down a little bit.”

But unbeknownst to them, this little bit of medicine awakened the blood of the blood eels left in Jiang Luo’s body, and the two intertwined, bursting forth with enough potency to make an adult delirious.

Jiang Luo’s willpower was strong enough that he at least retained his sanity at this point in time.

The two men reached for the dark-haired youth, who was leaning against the wall, breathing heavily, and did not move, abruptly pulling out a dagger and cutting their hands just as they were about to touch him, turning and stumbling in the other direction.

The tall man cried out in pain and hatred, “Lao Er, catch him! We can’t let him get away!”

Jiang Luo fled at a fast pace.

It’s getting hotter and hotter.

His eyes were blurred and the heat in his body seemed to rise even higher. Jiang Luo’s breathing was ragged as he struggled to open his eyes to the twisted corridor before him, his heart beating like drumsticks.

A restless longing bursts forth from the inside out.

So hard.

Such hard feelings even made Jiang Luo think that if having sex with Chi You could solve such hard feelings, then he would be willing to do so.

It’s just one time, as long as it gets him off and gets him out of this pain of being on fire, fuck it even if it’s Chi You.

They are still enemies after the sex anyway, no one affects anyone, everyone turns the other cheek and no one will publicise the scandal.

The experience of being drugged is enough of a black history for Jiang Luo, who fell for it once and will never do so again.

” Chi You ……”

He gritted his teeth and held onto the wall unsteadily, “Where the fuck are you going with this ……”

Did he have to drag someone at random?

But the crew of the ship were all male fish; the rich he could not see, and the poor he could not see.

Those who know each other can’t roll, and those who don’t he finds dirty.

Chi You is also sick and he is sick of the aggressive looks Chi You gives him, but Chi You has a face and a body that he can at least look at.

Jiang Luo was annoyed beyond belief and thought, “Forget it, I’ll just find someone with a nice face to sleep with.”

As soon as the words were out of his mouth, Jiang Luo tripped over a crumpled carpet and fell forward in a hurry.

A raging, hideous black mist instantly caught him, and in an instant it wrapped the dark-haired youth in a tight wrap, rushing violently towards the short man who was coming after him.

The short man was so frightened that his liver and guts were violent, the black mist scuttled past him and his life-preserving amulet shattered to powder in a flash.

The short man’s face went white as he found the others with shaking hands, “Chi, Chi You’s here! Quick, Chi You has appeared!”
