Seeing this, the criminal hiding behind the tree widened his eyes in fear and instinctively tried to flee.
But Xi Mo aid his gun steadily and shot him right in the head.
One shot, and he was dead.
After checking the area to make sure nothing was missed, the group finally started making their way back.
Zhouzhou wiped the sweat from her forehead and stretched her arms out toward Xi Mo, saying, "Uncle, carry !"
Xi Mo, obliging, bent down and picked up the little Chubby Girl.
Zhouzhou rested her head on his shoulder, and soon enough, she was snoring softly, fast asleep.
She was truly exhausted.
Sigh, why were all the missions always at night? If this kept up, when would she ever grow to seven ters tall?
The Ancestral Master, holding the rit she had earned, was grinning ear to ear.
Not bad, not bad at all! As expected of his chosen disciple, she was just that incredible.
anwhile, Wei Fangyi sat in the car, but he hadn't left yet, nervously keeping his eyes on the window.
When he finally spotted the familiar figures, he breathed a sigh of relief, opened the car door, and strode out. Noticing that Zhouzhou was fast asleep, he lowered his voice and asked, "All taken care of?"
"Mm." Xi Mo nodded slightly, then passed Zhouzhou over to Skinny Monkey and sat in the driver's seat, heading back to the training base.
The Commander had been waiting there for a long ti. When he saw everyone return, the weight on his heart was finally lifted.
He walked over, patted Xi Mo on the shoulder, and then gently pinched Zhouzhou's fortune pigtails. His gaze shifted to Wei Fangyi and his team. "Good job."
"It's our duty," Wei Fangyi and his team saluted solemnly.
The Commander gave him a reassuring pat on the shoulder. Noticing that Wei Fangyi didn't look too well, he glanced down at the wound on his abdon and furrowed his brow. "You'd better go see the military doctor."
At this, Wei Fangyi touched the spot where his wound was and replied, "No need."
As he spoke, his gaze shifted toward Zhouzhou.
"The little girl already treated ."
He felt that her dical skills were quite good. At least, his wound had already stopped bleeding.
In the past, it wouldn't have healed so quickly.
Hearing this, the Commander raised an eyebrow, recalling sothing, and laughed heartily. "Then you really don't need to. The little girl's dical skills are no joke. Rember that especially effective hemostatic pill? She made it."
Now Wei Fangyi and the others all looked surprised.
Skinny Monkey proudly lifted his chin.
That's right! Their boss was just that amazing! There was nothing she couldn't do!
Zhouzhou, unaware of the praise she was receiving, was still sound asleep. Her chubby little face was squished, and she was drooling a bit. In her dream, she mumbled the nas of dishes.
She was completely like a little foodie, just like any other child--yet also truly different.
"Alright," the Commander said. "Everyone, go rest. If anything still doesn't feel right, go see the military doctor."
"Got it," the group nodded, quickly dispersing.
Xi Mo took Zhouzhou back to the room and gently placed the little Chubby Girl on the bed.
Zhouzhou wasn't picky about where she slept. She was very easygoing, grabbing a corner of the blanket, rolling herself into a little cocoon like a baby silkworm.
Smacking her lips, she spread her chubby arms and continued sleeping soundly.
Xi Mo sat by the bed, watching her for a while before finally leaving.
When Zhouzhou woke up, it was already evening.
Her eyes hadn't fully opened yet, but her feet automatically knew the way, and she made her way to the dining hall.
The mont she stepped inside, she bumped into a pair of long legs with an "ouch," and her little body fell backward, landing on her behind. She was so startled that she just sat there in a daze, not reacting.
The owner of the long legs also exclaid, "Oops!" and quickly pulled the little Chubby Girl up. "Boss, are you alright?"
Zhouzhou patted her chubby face to wake up a bit, looked up, and saw a pale-faced young man with a very nice smile.
"You're the little girl who saved , aren't you?" Sun Hai asked excitedly.
His eyes were bright with curiosity as he stared at Zhouzhou.
"I just woke up and heard from the boss that you saved ! Thank you so much! I wanted to co see you, but I heard you hadn't woken up yet, so I left first. From now on, if you ever want to eat anything, just tell . I'll cover all your als for the rest of your life!"
He patted his chest, speaking with great enthusiasm.
Zhouzhou looked at him, suddenly rembering. Her legs went soft, and she hugged his leg, sitting right down on his foot.
In a weak voice, she said, "Uncle, why don't you start by taking to eat today's al? I'm so hungry, I don't have the strength to talk."
She clutched her stomach, looking like she was about to faint from hunger.
She hadn't had a single stead bun since last night!
She was so hungry that she could eat the ancestors of all stead buns!
Hearing this, Sun Hai was montarily stunned, then burst out laughing.
This little girl was just too amusing.
He bent down and picked her up. "Alright, let's go. Uncle will take you to eat."
"Mm-hmm!" The ntion of food imdiately perked Zhouzhou up. She mustered her last bit of energy and nodded vigorously.
Sun Hai ca back holding a cute little girl in his arms, catching the attention of his teammates.
Wei Fangyi was there too.
Seeing Zhouzhou's hair all ssed up like a bird's nest, he couldn't help but smile slightly.
He reached out and tousled her hair. "Awake now?"
Zhouzhou glanced at him, snorted lightly, and turned her head away in a huff, ignoring him.
She still rembered how he had imdiately spilled the secret she told him to keep quiet about to her uncle!
This guy was a big blabbermouth!
No way was she going to be friends with him!
She wasn't going to play with him, not at all.
What a little grudge-holder.
Wei Fangyi pinched her chubby earlobe playfully. "I was just teasing you. Are you really mad?"
Now Zhouzhou was even more upset.
She smacked his hand away with her little chubby paw.
How was that teasing? This was a matter of life and death for her!
Fortunately, her two dads weren't around today. Otherwise, she'd be drowned in jealousy by now.
Sun Hai, feeling sowhat at a loss for words, glanced at Wei Fangyi. "Boss, why are you bullying a little kid?"
Wei Fangyi gave Sun Hai a sharp look, and he imdiately fell silent, but he was still a bit indignant, muttering under his breath as he walked away.
Before long, he ca back with a tray of food, eagerly placing it in front of Zhouzhou. "Here, eat up, my little savior."
At the sight of the food, Zhouzhou's eyes lit up. She grabbed her chopsticks and began eating imdiately.
In no ti, she had finished the entire plate of food.
She patted her still-flat belly, pulled out her little golden bucket, and handed it to Sun Hai, looking at him expectantly. "Uncle, I'm still hungry. Fill this up for , please--completely full."
"Uh?" Sun Hai and the others were stunned, having never seen Zhouzhou's appetite before.
Zhouzhou, now growing impatient, started to get grumpy from hunger.
"I'll do it myself," she said, about to jump down.
But Sun Hai quickly held her in place. "No, no, I'll do it."
He took her little bucket to the serving counter, still unsure if he believed her.
Coincidentally, the chef on duty was the sa one from last ti. When he saw the golden bucket, he chuckled.
"It's for that little girl, right? Wait a mont, I saved a lot of food just for her."
This little girl was great--she could eat a lot and wasn't picky.
Sun Hai watched as Zhouzhou sat there, eating with such enthusiasm that her face was almost buried in the food. Her cheeks moved as she ate, quickly finishing everything and even asking for another serving.
He couldn't help but touch his wallet, rembering what he had said earlier, feeling a little dazed.
Was he sure he could afford to feed her for the rest of her life?
