Chapter 615: Quarrelsome Lovers
Chapter 615: Quarrelsome Lovers
After being reminded by Di, Ye Lingyue and Lan Caier grew fully alert. Earlier they had believed that they were no longer green hands after a dozen of days. Now, however, they had to admit that they were still quite inexperienced in comparison with Di and Sha.
The pitiful Little Squeak could not stop shaking after hearing about the miasma. It had no option but to march forward head-on.
Luckily for them, the small bell did not change its color for a whole day.
Around the evening, the two groups pitched camp.
Although the two sides had started cooperation, Disha and Drinking Blood still did not like each other.
Even their camps were set at opposite sides.
When they were about to have supper, the members of the two groups set out looking for dried firewood and food respectively.
Unfortunately, they could not find any good ingredients in the barren mountain. Then the members of Drinking Blood could not but chew on their solid food.
Captain Di, how about having a bite of my food? It is boar meat bought from the city and tastes nice. Xia Meng, the eldest one of the three sisters, took out an oiled paper bag and approached Di with an affectionate look.
In the group of Disha, Ye Lingyue was sent by the vice-captain on an errand of looking for food soon after she sat down. Lan Caiers case was no better and she was making painstaking efforts to pitch camp.
Yan Jiu went out to get some dry firewood. Di sat alone by the camp with folded arms.
I am not used to eating others food. The answer was as cold as expected.
Xia Mengs hands went stiff and she took back the paper bag sulkily. Di was always indifferent but his attitude toward the vice-captain Sha was gentler. He did not treat Black Moon or Lan Lan very warmly, either. Thinking of this, Xia Meng felt somewhat comfortable. It was largely because of her medical skills that Di had selected Black Moon.
After a while, Yan Jiu came back but Ye Lingyue did not return yet.
The black girl was still nowhere to be seen when the campfire was lit up.
I say, is Little Black taken away by the wolf? Yan Jiu was a little worried.
It is you that are taken away by the wolf. Your whole family are taken away by the wolf. Could any wolf take away my younger sister?
Lan Caier got angry and poked the fire with more force. A large spark flew onto the coat of Yan Jiu and left a big hole in his high-class coat in an instant.
Little Lan, are you courting death? You have burned my coat and how can you compensate me? Half of your credits in this task shall be given to me. Yan Jiu stomped his feet.
Are you a real man? Stop making a fuss just because there is a hole in your coat. Its no big deal. I will sew it up for you! Lan Caier was also furious. This annoying man had left the most tiring work to her and her younger sister, resting aside with a toothpick in his mouth. Seeing this alone could put her in a rage.
Similar quarrels had not stopped ever since Lan Caier met Yan Jiu.
In the very end, Yan Jiu took off his coat and left it to Lan Caier.
Lan Caiers small face with a birthmark showed great anger. She gave a glare at him and then took out a sewing kit, starting the needlework.
Hey, the color of the thread is not right. My coat is white and how can you use a black thread?
Hey, are you a real woman? Such poor needlework will scare away anyone who wants to marry you. Look at the seam where you have started sewing. It is even thicker than the scar on our captains face.
Shut up or I will sew up your mouth with my needle!
The voice of Yan Jiu and Lan Caier echoed in the whole campsite like the chirping of birds.
In the campsite of Drinking Blood, Dao Ge roasted the rice bun in his hand and brought it to Song Jingyun considerately.
At this time, he heard the quarrel of Yan Jiu and Lan Caier from the other side.
He looked over there subconsciously.
Lan Caier angrily pricked Yan Jius coat in her hand and her facial expressions were quite lively.
Ridiculous! Lan Caier knew nothing about needlework.
She was the daughter of a general and used weapons much more often than needles.
Several years had passed and she was still the same.
Dao Ge recognized Lan Caier the moment he saw her.
She had totally changed from a young girl into a woman. She still seemed quite forceful when talking and had a pretty face. Even the birthmark could not spoil her whole look.
Why had she disguised herself like this and come to the City of Mercenaries?
Was it because she knew that he was also here or? As far as Dao Ge knew, Lan Caier was always proactive and enthusiastic.
When he was in the military camp with a disguised identity, she was always following him wherever he went. Although all the other soldiers there scoffed at her, she did not hide her affection towards him at all.
Such a lively and active woman was whom Dao Ge detested most.
He liked quiet and intelligent women like Song Jingyun. Lan Caier was the other extreme. If Song Jingyun was compared to a pure white lotus, then Lan Caier might be a thorny wild rose.
She was predestined not to be his type.
He believed that she would never appear after he almost killed her and her father several years ago.
However, she appeared once again.
She had changed her appearance, but her facial expression was seen clearly by Dao Ge when she saw him.
She still cared about him.
At this moment, Dao Ge did not even realize that there was a sense of happiness deep inside. It was too weak to be realized by him.
So what? He did not like her, no matter how many years had passed.
Brother Dao, I am full already. Song Jingyun only finished half of the bun and put the rest in Dao Ges hand. This also brought him back to the present.
If it was Lan Caier, she would eat up the whole bun and pester him for another one.
Dao Ge sneered and was even surer that Song Jingyun was the right person for him.
Brother and sister, are you in love? My grandpa told me that people in romantic relations will quarrel and then make peace very soon.
A small and abrupt voice interrupted the quarrel of Lan Caier and Yan Jiu who disliked each other.
The young master Long Baobao squatted aside, staring at them two like a young adult.
The lips of Lan Caier and Yan Jiu twitched in tacit agreement.
Damned boy, what are you talking about?
The two blurted out simultaneously.
Look! I am right in saying that you are in love. It is said that long-time romantic lovers will even eat and speak in the same way.
The young master Long Baobao continued to show his wits as an expert on romantic relations.
Dao Ge looked somewhat gloomy and the dried food in hand was pinched into pieces somehow.
Gee! Where is Di? Hearing Long Baobaos words, Yan Jiu who was always thick-skinned looked somewhat embarrassed. He then looked around and found that Wu Chong was nowhere to be seen.
