After Li Ran exited the canteen, Lin Ke instantly came up to her. She was a little excited but mostly worried.

“Li Tao, you know Cui Chong?”

Li Ran was still not used to her fake name. She paused for a while and then replied, “It’s complicated. Just stay away from him. He’s bad news.”

“No wonder. Your facial expression had been so dark the entire time. Would it affect you that I ate his food? I really couldn’t help myself.”

Lin Ke recalled the meal from earlier and licked her lips.

“It’s fine.”

Li Ran smiled and looked at her. “Eating and drinking to the fullest is the proper thing to do.”

“Hehe, you’re so open-minded!”

Li Ran then saw Fang Qiu being escorted out by two men. They were walking into the distance.

Fang Qiu did not struggle at all. She was dumbstruck the entire time. There was no expression on her face as she was very dispirited.

Lin Ke sighed when she saw the situation. “He willingly did this for you even though you didn’t ask for it. In fact, you even rejected him so straightforwardly. It is a bloody win!”

The corners of Li Ran’s mouth curled up. She agreed with Lin Ke but did not express any opinions.

If she remembered correctly, the place that they were headed to was a construction area. Almost no one went there.

Li Ran originally wanted to go there since barely any people were around. She wanted to go to the mysterious space, finish her missions, and have a good meal.

She could only delay her plans since she did not want to come across those people.

On the other hand, Fang Qiu finally came back to her senses. She looked at the two men. Their wild smiles and unscrupulous gazes disturbed her.

Her voice trembled as she asked, “How… are you going to teach me a lesson?”

“Don’t worry, we won’t do anything to you.”

How could Fang Qiu not understand the situation she was in? She instantly struggled and quickly lowered her head to admit her mistake.

“I was wrong. I dare not do it again. I won’t bother Brother Cui’s woman anymore.”

“Really, really I won’t. Big Brothers, I’m ugly. I…”

Fang Qiu was flustered. She did not expect something like this to happen and was unable to accept it.

However, the two men were not listening to her at all. They even clicked their tongues and said disdainfully, “Why are you so scared? Don’t be scared. You should enjoy it.”

“Be good. From now on, we will look after you. Understand?”

One of the men threw a pale-faced Fang Qiu on the ground. Then, he took out a rope and tied her to a tree!

“Li Tao! I hate you! I hate you so much! It’s all that woman’s fault! Ahhhhh! Brother Cui, how could you do this to me…”

Fang Qiu begged for mercy several times, but to no avail. The men did whatever they wanted to her. As Fang Qiu’s spirit broke down, she let out a scream at the top of her lungs.

…

What happened in the cafeteria caused many people to be dissatisfied.

Li Hui and the big guy had just returned from their mission. They were relieved to see so many people that made it to the safety base.

The big guy turned to look at Li Hui and lamented, “The more people there are, the better things would turn out. Let’s go. Brother Nan had given us another mission.”

“What mission? I haven’t eaten yet.”

“I feel like you barely eat. Is something wrong? Are you traumatized?”

The corner of Li Hui’s mouth twitched.

“Do you think everyone eats as much as you do?”

“I don’t think I eat too much.”

Li Hui was speechless.

She followed the big guy to the canteen. There were a few soldiers inside.

The soldiers were criticizing someone.

When the big guy and Li Hui entered, the soldiers stopped their conversation abruptly.

One of the soldiers said to the big guy bitterly, “I’m sorry. It’s all because I didn’t manage things properly that it caused such a huge commotion. I’m really sorry.”

Cui Chong was sitting on a chair with his legs crossed. He did not look sorry at all.

When Li Hui saw him, she narrowed her eyes.

“Isn’t this Cui Chong?”

The big guy took a closer look.

“Wow, it really is!”

When Cui Chong heard his name, he raised his head and stood up immediately. A smile bloomed on his face. He looked at them in surprise and said, “We’re acquaintances! I didn’t expect to see you here.”

Li Hui was indifferent.

She tilted her head and said to the big guy, “Hey, are you going to bring Brother Nan over?”

“I think it’s necessary.”

The big guy gave his affirmation with a stern face.

The soldier noticed that the atmosphere was a little strange. He looked at Cui Chong and then at the other two. After that, he swallowed his saliva and decided not to get involved in this mess.
