Chapter 2372: Warm Scene, Miserable Life Story
"Can I...can I regret it?"
Du Yanfeng quickly stood up from the ground. Even though his legs were shaking uncontrollably, he still tried to maintain his balance and stood in front of Ling Tian.
Ling Tian nodded: "Anytime."
"Okay! I promise you!!"
Du Yanfeng spoke hurriedly, fearing that if he spoke too late, Ling Tian would refuse.
On the other hand, Ling Tian smiled without saying a word, his eyes falling on Du Yanhao who was standing beside him.
Noticing his gaze, Du Yanfeng said seriously, "But before I follow you, I have a small request. If you agree, from today onwards, I can be your most useful little brother. I'll fight for you with my life!"
Hearing this, Ling Tian raised his eyebrows and smiled: "Tell me about it."
"Protect Haohao's safety. I know this isn't a difficult task for you, so I hope you can protect him. I know I can't stop him from coming with us, but since he wants to come, I hope he won't get hurt."
"Of course, if you don't agree, I will let him stay even if I have to break his legs. I must ensure his safety, but I... you don't have to worry about it. I can risk my life for you. I'll give my life directly to you!"
Du Yanfeng's serious words surprised Ling Tian a little.
He looked at Du Yanfeng for a moment before nodding with a smile: "Of course, that's no problem. I can promise you."
"Okay! Then we'll follow you! I'll do whatever you need!"
"It's nothing." Ling Tian waved his hand: "As for the rest, wait for two days to rest, and then I will tell you what to do."
"Row!"
Du Yanfeng agreed to this, then looked at Du Yanhao and said softly, "Go tell Yuanyuan's mother that we're going to eat."
"it is good."
After Du Yanhao left, Ling Tian asked curiously, "Is Yuanyuan your child?"
"No, but his father is my good brother. It's just... he couldn't leave with us. After that, I treated Yuanyuan as my own child."
"That's it..."
After hearing Yuanyuan's life story, Ling Tian felt a little sad.
I never thought that this seemingly optimistic child would have such an experience.
Ling Tian sighed, and then asked Du Yanfeng about the current situation in Jincheng.
Afterwards, Du Yanhao came back and the few of them came to the round tent.
In fact, Ling Tian had just discovered that there were tables of various sizes placed around these tents, on which were placed various ingredients, which were obviously prepared for daily meals.
Just as a few people came over, Yuanyuan came out with a smile, stood in front of Ling Tian, and looked at him curiously.
"Hello~"
Ling Tian smiled slightly and reached out to touch Yuanyuan's head.
Yuanyuan shook her head and said in a baby voice, "Brother, how old are you now? Are you married?"
"Huh? My brother is married, what's wrong? Why are you asking this?"
"Because Mr. Du isn't married, I thought his friends wouldn't like to get married either."
"Oh?"
Ling Tian's lips curled up at Yuanyuan's words. He thought he was amused and asked, "Why do you think none of your father Du's friends will get married?"
"Because Daddy Du said that getting married is not fun, and then he also said that if he got married he wouldn't be able to be the city lord, so I decided not to get married in the future and just be the city lord like Daddy Du!"
Listening to Yuanyuan's amusing words, Du Yanfeng smiled helplessly. Ling Tian touched his head and said, "Then you must work hard, future city lord."
"Hehe~Thank you, brother!"
After a while, a woman walked out of the tent, nodded to Du Yanfeng, Ling Tian and others, and started to get busy at the table next to her.
"She is Yuanyuan's mother, her name is Xiuli. Unfortunately, she became a widow at an early age and has to take care of Yuanyuan alone."
Upon hearing this, Ling Tian looked at Xiu Li in silence, only lamenting the unfairness of fate.
"Brother~"
Suddenly, Yuanyuan appeared next to Lingtian, blinking her big eyes with a faint smile on her face.
"What's wrong?" Ling Tian's tone became much gentler, and he looked at Yuanyuan and spoke.
Yuanyuan slowly stretched out her hand, pretending to want a hug, and said, "Brother, can you hold me while I eat? I want to eat with you."
As soon as these words were spoken, Xiu Li, who was cooking not far away, turned around and said, "Yuan Yuan, don't disturb your brother. He's a guest, and you're letting him hold you. How disrespectful! Sit down and eat by yourselves!"
"woo woo woo woo!"
Hearing Xiuli's scolding, Yuanyuan quickly covered her eyes and burst into tears.
He looked both adorable and heartbreaking, so Ling Tian simply held him in his arms and said, "Alright, Yuanyuan, I'll hold you, okay? Don't cry, I'll take you to dinner."
As Ling Tian finished speaking, he noticed that he was being held in someone's arms. Yuanyuan hurriedly pulled her hands away, and there was no sign of crying on her.
He chuckled and said, "Thank you, brother. I knew you would hold me while eating, you know? My dad used to like to hold me while eating, then it was Daddy Du who held me while eating, and now, I want you to hold me while eating!"
Yuanyuan's words quieted down everyone present.
Ling Tian scratched his nose and said, "Of course you can, but can you tell me why you want me to hold you?"
"Because my brother is handsome. When I grow up, I want to be like him, handsome. I don't want to be like Dad Du, sloppy and terrible. Eh~"
After Yuanyuan finished speaking, she made a disgusted expression, which made everyone laugh.
Even Wang Jie, who was standing next to her, was looking at Yuanyuan with a smile on his face, obviously liking children as well.
After that, Yuanyuan said all kinds of funny things, making everyone present laugh.
Xiuli looked back from time to time, her eyes full of smiles.
About half an hour later, Xiuli put a few dishes on the table. Ling Tian then realized that the dishes they cooked were just some wild vegetables. Not to mention meat, there were not even any side dishes.
Seeing the dishes laid out before them, before Ling Tian could speak, Xiu Li beside him said, "I'm sorry, we haven't found any monster flesh lately, so... we don't have any meat to cook. Don't be offended, I'll have Brother Du go hunting tonight and make you some meat tomorrow."
As soon as these words came out, Yuanyuan in Ling Tian's arms excitedly said, "Oh yeah! We're having meat tomorrow! I want to eat a big piece! I want to eat it non-stop! I love meat so much!"
"Hahaha."
Several people laughed, and Ling Tian was thinking in his heart that he would go out with Du Yanfeng tonight and find some wild rabbits if possible for Yuanyuan to enjoy.
Just as they were about to eat, Ling Tian suddenly turned around, a hint of vigilance flashing in his eyes. He then fixed his gaze on Du Yanfeng and said, "Someone's coming! Is it one of yours?"
"Huh? Probably not."
"That……"
“Ahhhhhhh! Help!!!”
