The Female Cannon Fodder With Boundless Merits
Chapter 628 - 632 Scandalous Queen (33)

Chapter 628: Chapter 632 Scandalous Queen (33)

Lang Erping, Wang Bai, and others’ tragedy did not last too long.

Before the fiercest storm hit, Little Monkey, together with his younger brothers, cooperatively managed to drag the people back.

However, the process involved much tugging and dragging, and the results were not too pretty.

Especially those who struggled the most, Little Monkey was only interested in female monkeys, and the human women before him were way too freakishly ugly, so naturally, he had no intentions of showing any mercy. His approach was even tougher, using all four limbs.

Xie Susu and Qin Qing both suffered numerous abrasions from their faces rubbing against the ground as they were dragged.

Lang Erping and Wang Bai, recognizing the situation better, saw that they weren’t stronger than the monkeys and didn’t struggle in vain.

They had heard of monkeys eating fruits and grains but never about monkeys that ate people, so they should... be right about that, shouldn’t they...

Everyone who had been paying attention to the incident couldn’t help but breathe a sigh of relief.

The character of these individuals was one thing, but there was still no one who could stand by, without cause or enmity, and watch a life wither away.

It was truly fortunate that they were rescued.

Even though the heroes were a group of monkey kings...

The remaining few were likewise brought back to the cave by Little Monkey and his kin. Compared to the others, these last four looked as if they had endured a huge disaster.

In fact, that could be somewhat accurate.

Da Pan and Xue Guo were shocked to see the severe condition of Qin Qing and Xie Susu.

Earlier, when they saw Xu Xiaoqing and Zeng Yan being brought in, one after the other, apart from looking disheveled, they seemed unharmed.

After drying their clothes by the fire, they were jumping around lively and well again.

Da Pan naturally assumed the others wouldn’t be too different, but the severity came as a shock to him.

In fact, only a few hours had passed since they last parted ways.

Upon reuniting, the once bright and beautiful faces were now marred with scars, and the clothes were slashed from one side to the other.

Especially Qin Qing, despite being dressed in full-length clothes, it was only because she was accustomed to comfort.

Having experienced decades of wealth in her previous life, and after a brief downfall in this life, having found a wealthy patron, she spared no expense on herself.

The clothes she wore were crafted from fine materials, greatly comfortable.

However, the downside of expensive clothing was that it wasn’t durable.

Not to mention her moving through the jungle, collecting branches, rubbing against the ground, being dragged...

Her clothes were more tattered than those of a beggar.

These few, after being tossed onto the ground by Little Monkey, were still stunned, unable to comprehend what had happened.

It took them a while to finally realize that they should be safe and then slowly raised their heads to survey their current surroundings.

The moment they looked up, they saw Su Li leisurely holding a piece of bamboo pipe, drinking from it in a lazy demeanor.

Instantly, not only the two women who already harbored a strong sense of resentment but Lang Erping and Wang Bai, the two men, felt their eyes turn so red it seemed as if they were about to bleed.

Da Pan, initially stepping forward to comfort and check on them, recoiled after catching their terrifying gazes. The step he had taken forward was silently retracted.

It was best, he thought, to keep his mouth shut and remain an unnoticed mute.

So he wouldn’t open his mouth and be misunderstood as showing off or being content.

Lang Erping looked at Su Li and couldn’t help but speak first.

With a deeply pained and disappointed expression, he accused Su Li, "Qingqing, you clearly found such a good place to set up camp, why... why didn’t you come to find us?"

"Don’t you know that in this weather, I, we could all have died?"

"You weren’t like this before, the you from before was a very kind, considerate, and understanding girl, how have you become like this now..."

"Perhaps this morally corrupt modern society has made women lose their purest hearts, becoming mercantile and petty."

Lang Erping’s words grew more and more outrageous, extending from his disappointment in Su Li to how women should pick up the traditional virtues again."

If Lang Erping had said this before, most of the audience would have blasted him to leave this bizarre world, but now... everyone was faintly guessing with excitement, and their tolerance for him rocketed upwards at the speed of a rocket.

After all, they were two living fossils, old antiques, understandable.

Su Li couldn’t stand the constant noise of flies buzzing by her ears and swept a lethal glance their way.

Little Monkey, who had been trying to be a qualified lackey, just needed to use two fingers to pinch Lang Erping’s collar, shaking him so hard that it almost made his stomach acid come out, leaving him no chance to continue babbling.

With Lang Erping taking the lead, the rest, no matter how hateful and resentful, dared not speak up again.

Several people were quite perceptive, naturally seeing that everyone else was following Su Li’s lead.

Even their positioning revolved around her in a semicircular formation.

Under someone else’s roof, one has to bow their head, let alone with a fierce wild monkey in front of them.

So terrifying...

Just because they couldn’t mess with the formidable Su Li didn’t mean they couldn’t touch the other low-level lackeys, right?

Especially the two ordinary folks, Xu Xiaoqing and Zeng Yan.

Their intentions were clearly understood by everyone.

Since they wanted to make their way into this circle, the first lesson they had to learn was to prioritize their seniors.

King Bai was the first to create trouble; he was cold and hungry, his body covered with a chilly dampness, and he desperately wanted to get closer to the fire.

The best spots near the fire were already taken.

King Bai cast a meaningful glance around everyone, picking the easiest target.

He pointed directly at Xu Xiaoqing, "Xioqing, you wouldn’t mind giving up your spot for me to warm up a bit by the fire, would you?"

Xu Xiaoqing pouted her lips and reluctantly kept silent.

The temperature on the island dropped very low at night, especially in this cold and stormy weather, even in a cave without a fire it would be unbearable.

And they were all wearing thin clothes; she didn’t want to move away from the source of warmth at all.

If King Bai had been a bit more sincere, Xu Xiaoqing would have given up her spot without a word, given that he was an idol she admired.

However, she didn’t expect her idol’s true character to be so difficult to accept.

Arrogant, condescending, self-righteous...

Su Li used a small trick to release the suppressed true nature hidden deep within people’s hearts.

King Bai and the others were still in this state, completely unaware that their current demeanor was inappropriate, and how it starkly contrasted with the upright persona they painstakingly maintained outside.
