The Pitiful Girl She Picked Up Turned Out to Be a Cruel and Vicious Beauty Chapter 77 : You can’t eat duck

You can’t eat duck (Chapter 77)

Upon hearing that her ho had been raided by polluted creatures, Ye Sheng imdiately beca panicked and anxious.

Ah Mu, who was standing nearby, also knew that Ye Sheng's ho was in the east of the mitigation zone, so he grew worried too.

Although Ye Sheng was an orphan and didn't need to worry about the safety of her family, if her only place to live was destroyed, it would be very troubleso!

Seeing Ye Sheng's face turn pale with fear, Ah Mu quickly spoke to comfort her, "Ye Sheng, don't worry. The mitigation zone is quite large, and even if it's the eastern part, it might not be your area!"

After saying this, he felt he had been too clumsy with his words. After thinking for a mont, he added: "If your ho is destroyed, you can stay with in the safe zone for now."

Although Ye Sheng was young, it wasn't appropriate for a single man and woman to live together. Ah Mu thought he could ask Lan Zhang to take her in.

Moreover, if Ye Sheng stayed in the safe zone, she might change her mind and join the Azure Phoenix rcenary Group... Hey, that wouldn't be so bad, right?

However, unlike A Mu, who was thinking far ahead, Ye Sheng remained anxious.

She knew her own situation best.

Was she worried about that dilapidated shack?

Of course not!!!

She was worried about the poor little girl still in the rundown shack.

Even though the injuries to her eyes and left hand had healed, the little one's legs were still paralyzed. If the polluted creatures suddenly attacked and overturned the shack, that would be disastrous!

The more she thought about it, the more anxious she beca.

The poor little one was so weak...

"Ah Mu, I need to go back right now. You stay here and wait for the temporary identity card to be processed!"

Leaving rashly at this ti would get them arrested by the rcenaries, who would suspect that there was sothing wrong with the temporary identity card!

Fortunately, there were two of them now, so only one person needed to wait.

It was like having a 'hostage' as collateral.

Ye Sheng didn't plan to stay there and worry. She turned to instruct Ah Mu to wait in place, and as soon as she finished speaking, she took off running towards her ho.

Ah Mu was a bit slow in trying to stop her, and worried about Ye Sheng's safety, he frowned deeply. Then, he raised his hand and slapped the table at the city gate service desk, making a loud 'smack' sound.

"Hey, are you done yet? I'm in a hurry to leave."

The staff processing the temporary identity card gave him an annoyed look and, completely unafraid of the tall and burly rcenary Ah Mu, spoke with disdain: "In a hurry to die, huh? If you can't wait, don't leave the city. Just wait patiently!"

"..."

Ah Mu was infuriated but helpless.

He had no idea what was going on with Ye Sheng! He couldn't go back!

After sprinting for a while, Ye Sheng felt she wasn't fast enough. She took out a basic speed enhancer from the side pocket of her bag, removed the protective cap from the needle, and painfully injected it into her thigh!

Previously, when she encountered the bloodsucking aphid riot in the cotton forest and the ambush by the Black Spring Freemasonry halfway, Ye Sheng didn't use the speed enhancer because she knew it wouldn't help.

Whether it was the aphid riot, where she couldn't outrun the cotton forest, or the ambush by the nurous robed figures, where even the rcenaries couldn't escape with their speed, the speed enhancer wouldn't have made a difference for her, a small fry.

She couldn't escape the dangers of this world...

Additionally, Ye Sheng was afraid of the pain. After all, the needle was quite thick.

Almost like the ones used for injecting pigs.

(? _? )

But now, worried about the situation at ho, Ye Sheng couldn't care about anything else.

Though she grimaced in pain, the effect was evident.

After using the basic speed enhancer, Ye Sheng felt her body suddenly beco much lighter. Her legs no longer felt sore and painful; instead, she felt full of energy, capable of running 100 more laps!

With the speed enhancer, Ye Sheng's speed increased significantly.

Originally, it would take at least half an hour to get from the city gate to the eastern mitigation zone, but she managed to compress it to twelve minutes, successfully arriving near her ho before the enhancer's effect wore off in fifteen minutes.

Normally, people in the mitigation zone wouldn't light lamps at night to avoid attracting polluted creatures.

However, now there were many torches illuminating the area, allowing Ye Sheng to clearly see the chaotic scene.

The previously flat ground was now uneven due to the polluted creatures' burrowing. Many shacks had collapsed, and various irregular pieces of wood were scattered everywhere.

The fresh bloodstains on the wood, along with so severed limbs, indicated that a significant commotion had just taken place.

Seeing this, Ye Sheng grew even more anxious!

However, because the berserk earthworms excel at burrowing, the ground was not only uneven but also dotted with large deep pits. Despite her urgency, Ye Sheng had to be careful to avoid falling into these holes.

Who knew how deep these pits went?

Originally, Ye Sheng could have reached ho before the speed enhancer's effect wore off, but the "obstacles" along the way caused significant delays.

Now, only three minutes remained before the enhancer's effect would disappear.

Ye Sheng wanted to leap over these "obstacles" and rush ho, but she wasn't a professional long jumper, and the deep pits resembled hellish abysses. She had to navigate around them cautiously.

Just looking at these pits, one could imagine the enormous size of the berserk earthworms.

After making considerable progress, she passed by Zhou Lin's ho and noticed that half of the Zhou family's large shack had collapsed. It didn't seem like the damage was caused by the earthworms burrowing from below, but rather by one of the earthworms falling and crashing into it.

"Oh my God, those damn polluted creatures destroyed my ho! I can't live like this!"

"Shut up! Can't you see the ss? Get up and clean! We should be thankful we're alive!"

"Zhou Rui took his pampered sister to enjoy a good life, leaving us here to suffer. It's not fair. When they co back, I'll definitely give them a piece of my mind."

Ye Sheng heard the voices from the Zhou family's shack and sighed inwardly, thinking that when Zhou Lin and the others returned, there would be even more trouble.

Having more people wasn't necessarily better.

However, being chased by the bloodsucking aphids, could that be considered enjoying a good life?

Ye Sheng didn't bother with their issues. She just wanted to know if her own place was safe and if the little one was unhard!

She had only heard about the potential danger of polluted creatures attacking the mitigation zone but didn't expect it to happen so suddenly. Indeed, buying a house in the safe zone was the right decision!

If the little one was safe this ti, she would definitely save up her points diligently from now on.

She had to buy a house as soon as possible.

With her mind full of chaotic thoughts, Ye Sheng finally saw her shack just thirty seconds before the speed enhancer's effect wore off.

Thank goodness!

Compared to the Zhou family's half-collapsed shack, her shack was intact.

It hadn't been attacked by the berserk earthworms.

Ye Sheng breathed a sigh of relief and quickly took out her key to unlock the door. Under the red moonlight streaming through a hole in the roof, she could barely make out the interior of the shack.

The little one was quietly lying on the straw bed.

Seeing Ye Sheng panting heavily as she bent over with her hands on her knees, looking utterly exhausted, Gu Luoyu red eyes seed to deepen with emotion.

As a psychic, her senses were much more acute than those of ordinary people.

Thus, she could see clearly in the dark, noticing the sweat dripping from Ye Sheng's forehead, one drop after another.

She also saw the lingering fear on Ye Sheng's adorable face, her disheveled hair, and her trembling body, showing signs of exhaustion and weakness.

Was she worried about her?

Before her eyes had recovered, although Gu Luoyu could hear the concern in Ye Sheng's voice, seeing it firsthand made a deeper impression.

This novel sensation made Gu Luoyu squint slightly, finding it interesting rather than touching.

It felt like a tad cat from before the apocalypse, rubbing against her legs and owing for attention.

With this thought, Gu Luoyu continued her act, putting on a mask of a gentle smile as she said, "Ye Sheng, don't worry, I'm fine. You..."

However, before Gu Luoyu could finish her sentence, the effect of the speed enhancer wore off.

The side effects hit.

Ye Sheng's body suddenly staggered, causing her to take a few unsteady steps forward before collapsing to the ground.

The faster she had run, the more it hurt now!

It felt as if she had been beaten in a sack for three days and nights...

o(╥﹏╥)o

It hurt so much.

The shack wasn't large, and Ye Sheng fell forward, landing right beside the straw bed, bringing her even closer to Gu Luoyu.

Gu Luoyu couldn't move to help.

Ye Sheng, enduring the pain, lifted her head to look at the little one so close to her. Despite the pain, she grinned foolishly, her round black eyes curving with her smile.

"Hehe, Gu Luoyu, I'm glad you're okay!"

Hearing Ye Sheng's simple words, Gu Luoyu was taken aback, the smile on her lips slowly fading.

Her heart felt as if it had been pricked by a needle, her beautiful red eyes deepening.

The subtle change went unnoticed, while Ye Sheng felt relieved, thankful it was just a false alarm.

However, the side effects of the speed enhancer caused her a lot of pain... It felt as if needles were being inserted into her bones. If the little one hadn't been beside her, Ye Sheng would have rolled around in agony, regardless of her image.

It hurt so much...

Fortunately, the side effects didn't last too long. After half an hour, Ye Sheng finally overca the pain.

But after all the commotion, she was extrely weak. Just as she was about to collapse and rest, there was a knock on the door, reminding Ye Sheng of Ah Mu, whom she had left at the city gate.

No rest yet!

Ye Sheng took a deep breath, mustering up her strength, and told the little one to stay quiet.

Then she opened the shack's door and, as expected, saw Ah Mu's face.

Seeing Ye Sheng safe and sound, Ah Mu imdiately patted his chest in relief and said, "Ye Sheng, thank goodness your ho is okay. After the berserk earthworms' attack, there are many pits around. Stay ho, and base personnel will co to resolve this soon."

After saying this, Ah Mu delivered the items Ye Sheng had bought today, waved goodbye to her, and then ran off as if on fire.

It seed he was going to inform the Azure Phoenix rcenary Group.

After closing the door, Ye Sheng's smile faded into an expression of exhaustion. Once she confird that the little one was safe, she collapsed onto the straw bed and quickly fell asleep.

The human body has a natural recovery chanism, and sleep is the best way to facilitate it.

anwhile, Gu Luoyu watched Ye Sheng sleep deeply. She turned her head to look at Ye Sheng and raised her left index finger to poke Ye Sheng's soft cheek. With her original cold expression, her red eyes were like a wolf in the dark night, staring at its prey.

She chuckled lightly and murmured in a cold tone that echoed faintly in the night.

"Stupid but quite cute."

...

Perhaps due to the pain, Ye Sheng's sleep was restless. As the red moon receded, she woke up at dawn.

Just opening her eyes, she saw the sunrise through the leaky roof, heralding a new day.

After a long sleep, Ye Sheng winced in pain.

The speed enhancer was useful, but the side effects were truly unpleasant!

Tools from the lottery space were much better!

(。o︿o。)

Ye Sheng rubbed her knees, then turned to look at the still-sleeping little one. Her beautiful face seed to glow in the morning light.

She was so pleasant to look at!

Just looking at her made Ye Sheng's pain feel a bit lessened.

However, as soon as Ye Sheng took a glance, the alert Gu Luoyu had already opened her eyes, looking calm and composed, not like soone who had just woken up, still groggy.

Her red eyes were like rare gemstones imrsed in a stream, reflecting dazzling light.

"Good morning, Ye Sheng!"

"Morning..."

Ye Sheng couldn't help but be stunned again.

Realizing this a mont later, she felt a bit embarrassed and hurriedly grabbed the items Ah Mu had delivered last night, starting to show them one by one.

"These are the clothes I bought. They're easy to move in and the material is good..."

Ye Sheng's taste was quite good.

Previously, she had chosen n's clothing, but now she had bought won's clothing that suited the little one's skin tone. For herself, she had picked two very simple sets of clothes.

Though she had accepted becoming a girl, wearing dresses still felt strange to Ye Sheng.

However, living in the buffer zone and frequently venturing into the wilderness ant dresses were impractical.

Ye Sheng felt relieved about this.

On the other hand, for the little one, Ye Sheng chose beautiful dresses.

After asking the little one, Ye Sheng shyly helped her clean up and change into a new floral dress. The V-neck revealed a snowy, voluptuous chest, and the fitted waist design accentuated her slender figure.

Those long, prominent legs were especially eye-catching.

Hmm... the little one's figure was better than a model's, and with her beauty, she was the complete package!

Unlike Ye Sheng.

Her chest was as flat as a board.

Ye Sheng inexplicably felt defeated.

She sulked a bit while eating so snacks. During her shopping trip in the safe zone, she had bought a lot of high-quality milk tablets and nutritional supplents. Maybe with consistent consumption, she would develop quickly!

But the little one's injuries hadn't healed, so she had to continue drinking nutritional liquids to sustain herself.

After sharing the items she bought, Ye Sheng began talking about her experiences in the safe zone. When she ntioned the Azure Phoenix rcenary Group's cafeteria, she couldn't help but bring up the hot topic of Erensu.

"Although Ah Mu firmly believes Erensu is still alive, others think she's probably dead. And with the Gu family making a big fuss about looking for the missing Erensu, it's hard to tell if she's alive or dead."

Seeing the little one’s curious expression, Ye Sheng felt even more eager to share.

She then described her encounter with mbers of the Gu family in the shopping district, the arrogance of the Gu family side branch, Erensu's back photo, and more. Ye Sheng's story was full of twists and turns, like a winding mountain road.

She really missed her calling as a storyteller.

Gu Luoyu listened quietly. When Ye Sheng finished, she suddenly asked, "You've ntioned before that Erensu also has pink hair, and now you've seen her back photo. Do you think I look like her?"

"Yes, very much!"

Hearing Gu Luoyu’s question, Ye Sheng nodded repeatedly.

This elicited a light laugh from Gu Luoyu. Her red eyes sparkled as she asked again, "If so, have you never suspected that I might be Erensu?"

"......"

Ye Sheng stared blankly at the little one.

Then, her eyes darted around, and she hesitated to speak.

Instead, Gu Luoyu pursued relentlessly, "Hmm? Ye Sheng, have you really never suspected?"

Seeing the little one’s persistence, Ye Sheng hesitated for a mont before explaining, "There are a lot of people in the world who look similar from behind. With so many people in the base, you can't tell just by a surna, pink hair, and a back view!"

"But even so, it's still worth doubting!"

Knowing there was no escaping this ti, Ye Sheng decided to just go all out, "It's like this, but Erensu is so powerful, it’s definitely impossible... Moreover, she is from the Gu family and has a blood relation, she wouldn't be so ruthless."

Although Ye Sheng was very curious about what the poor girl had gone through to suffer such severe injuries!

It was simply inhuman torture.

However, if Gu Luoyu herself didn't speak about it, Ye Sheng didn't want to forcefully ask, fearing to reopen the barely healed wounds, revealing bloody scars and making Gu Luoyu uncomfortable!

So, as long as Gu Luoyu didn't say, Ye Sheng wouldn't ask.

Besides, there was one more thing Ye Sheng didn't say: the rumored Erensu was extrely ferocious, almost comparable to a terrifying serial killer, while Gu Luoyu was a gentle and weak young lady, how could they possibly be the sa person!

Impossible.

Absolutely impossible!

When Gu Luoyu heard Ye Sheng’s words, the corner of her mouth curved up even more, agreeing as she said, "Indeed, Erensu is so strong, how could she beco a useless person like ."

As for the blood relation with the Gu family...

Hehe, it’s just a joke.

Not worth considering.

"You can't say that, Gu Luoyu, you're really strong. If it were soone else facing this situation, they would have been beaten down, but you are trying hard to recover, super strong! Once you fully recover, we’ll go get revenge!"

"Revenge..."

Ye Sheng's sincere comfort fell into Gu Luoyu's ears, making her unable to hold back and laugh out loud.

Then she lifted her left hand, grabbed Ye Sheng's arm, and with a force, pulled her into her embrace, gently stroking Ye Sheng's black hair, speaking happily: "Yes, we will."

Ye Sheng, experiencing the sudden embrace, was almost suffocated by Gu Luoyu's "enthusiasm."

Fortunately, Gu Luoyu soon let go, allowing Ye Sheng to finally breathe again.

She rarely had contact with girls, let alone the recent chest-to-chest hug, making Ye Sheng’s cheeks blush. She quickly got up, hurriedly leaving with a quick excuse to go outside.

Left behind, Gu Luoyu watched Ye Sheng’s back, her red eyes flickering, thinking silently that this naive fool is not only simple-minded but also very innocent!

Unaware that she was seen as a fool by the little one, after pushing the door open and leaving, Ye Sheng didn't forget to lock the door. Only then did she wander around, letting the heat on her face dissipate.

Clearly, she was the one who taken advantage by the little one, so why was she the one feeling shy now???
