Chapter 181 Foolish but Powerful Beauty vs. Delicate but Vampiric God of War (17)
He Suining felt an urge to facepalm in exasperation.
She was worried that Qin Meng would cause trouble for Tao, but Qin Meng completely ignored her. Tao felt bored, pouted, and went to help move things off the roof of the car because they needed to cook.
Qin Meng noticed her gaze and met her eyes.
Having guessed her thoughts, he snorted coldly, "I don't bother arguing with childish people."
You talk as if you're so mature. If we're classifying people as "extraordinary," you're still a baby.
of course.
He Suining would never say that. She smiled and helped Qin Meng to sit under a big tree nearby. Then she went to help Tao, and soon a small pot was set up.
"Ning Ning."
Tao noticed that some people were picking mushrooms around them. Her eyes lit up, and she quietly said to her, "I'll go pick mushrooms too, to add some vegetables to the meal."
He Suining clapped her hands and stood up. "I'll go with you."
Qin Meng shrugged indifferently.
The two of them went to pick mushrooms not far away.
Tao is very thick-skinned and outgoing. She cheerfully asked the others for mushroom-picking tips, and she actually got a lucky answer.
Carrying a small basket, I started picking mushrooms.
He Suining didn't actually come to pick mushrooms. When she was a little distance away from Qin Meng, she pulled out a small knife from her belt.
This is what she bought before.
She frowned, deep in thought about Qin Meng's food.
Clearly, he needs to drink human blood.
In the original world, Qin Meng had been trying to suppress his desires, but he soon discovered that suppressing them would only make him weaker and more uncontrollable. So later he would secretly drink human blood, but distribute it evenly so that it would not kill the humans.
But he found that this would easily expose him, so he finally chose to kill the bad guys.
So, in general, Qin Meng isn't a truly evil villain. The main reasons he turned evil, besides the original owner breaking his leg and causing him a lot of unnecessary suffering, were also the rejection he faced from humans.
He desperately wanted to integrate into humanity, yet he was betrayed time and time again. Anyone who knew his true identity would always burn him at the stake.
Later, Qin Meng lost all hope.
He chose a society that was easy for the superhumans, leading them in their rebellion against humanity. Where there is war, blood will naturally flow, but it also gave the superhumans a piece of land, allowing them to sign an equal treaty with humans and survive on this land.
He Suining is now taking Tao and Qin Meng to the upper city. They can't just kill every robber they see along the way and then give them drinks.
Let's set aside whether Qin Meng could accept human blood in the early stages.
She knew robbers weren't stupid; they all lived in groups. She couldn't waste time on the road for Qin Meng's sake.
But to say that they completely ignored Qin Meng is an overstatement.
He Suining felt she was at a disadvantage, since building a network with someone who would become very successful in the future was a form of investment.
I thought about it.
She could only think of the best solution.
He spent one point to buy a pill in the store, put it in her mouth, then took a knife and cut her wrist, finally stuffing it into a leather bag.
The pill heals the wound instantly after being swallowed, but only for small wounds like this.
[Host.] The ragged creature poked its head out to remind her, [You can buy scar removal medicine.]
He Suining smiled and didn't buy it.
The broken thing didn't understand, but it also didn't quite comprehend many of the things its host did, yet each had its own reason in the end.
So it has figured it out.
A good, qualified system should not interfere too much with the host's decisions.
Anyway, as long as the original owner's demands are met, that's fine.
"He Suining!" Tao ran over happily with a basket, only to see He Suining cutting her wrists.
She ran over angrily, looking at her with disbelief. "What are you doing? Are you hurting yourself? Ningning, are you under too much pressure?"
He Suining felt that if she didn't explain, Tao would start crying.
She shook her head. "Qin Meng is an extraordinary person."
"!"
Tao shuddered, her expression stiffening.
Polan never expected He Suining to tell Tao, but she had her own ideas.
after awhile.
Tao didn't care about Qin Meng's identity as an extraordinary person. Instead, she kept muttering to herself, "Even so, you can't cut your own blood. What makes him so special? Why should he? It's infuriating... But I'll keep it a secret for you, Ningning."
Tao turned around and went back to picking mushrooms.
Gazing at her somewhat innocent-looking back, He Suining squinted at her and chuckled softly.
He lightly tapped the dagger in his hand with his finger. "Broken One, you keep a close eye on Peach. If she makes any unusual moves, notify me."
The ragged creature sensed a dangerous aura and hugged itself tightly in fear. [Host, what are you doing?]
He Suining smiled innocently, but her words were chilling: "Of course I'd kill her. I don't need to betray you, you understand? Trash. If one day you betray me, I'll destroy all your data."
The tattered body shivered and continued to hug itself tightly.
It gets it.
It turns out that the host didn't say what Tao said because he believed her, but rather because he didn't believe her, which is why he said it on purpose.
She wanted to use this incident to test Tao's loyalty to her.
If, like in the original world, Tao is a naive and idiotic person with a mental disorder, then the host will abandon her without hesitation.
If Tao betrays her, then her only fate will be death.
However, there was another layer in between, something I hadn't expected.
That is, He Suining felt that if Tao was truly of one mind with her, then in the future, the matter of Tao donating blood for Qin Meng needed to be said by her, an "outsider".
Peach had no idea of her fate, which was now in big question.
After picking the mushrooms, she went back with He Suining.
Qin Meng didn't actually do nothing; he chopped some chili peppers and pickled cabbage, cooked a pickled cabbage soup, and also made some filling noodles.
After washing the mushrooms, put them in, and you'll have a pot of sauerkraut and mushroom noodle soup.
It tasted pretty good when it was hot.
Qin Meng ate quite a lot and felt full, but he still didn't feel that emptiness in his heart.
After eating.
Qin Meng continued to rest with his eyes closed against the tree trunk. After a few seconds, he heard faint footsteps.
His eyes shot open.
He Suining squatted down in front of him, holding a plate with red, pastry-like things on it, which smelled very sweet.
I just finished eating.
Everyone was busy clearing away the dishes, but she kept saying she wanted to eat sweets, so she ran over and made some.
This is probably the finished product.
"I don't eat sweets."
Qin Meng was about to close his eyes again.
He Suining said to him gently, "Have a bite."
He doesn't speak.
Her face instantly turned cold. "Qin Meng, don't force me to feed you."
"..." Qin Meng opened his eyes speechlessly and looked at her for a few moments.
He knew He Suining's personality to some extent, and feeling quite annoyed, he picked up a piece and put it in his mouth. Suddenly, his dark pupils lit up.
The pastries tasted pretty good.
But it was different from the sauerkraut hot pot he had eaten before. After eating a piece, he actually felt that the emptiness dissipate a little, and he had a feeling of "I finally ate something". It was so strange.
Qin Meng couldn't hide his feelings and looked at her suspiciously, "What are these pastries made of? Why are they red?"
"Oh."
He Suining certainly couldn't tell him, at least not now. "It's made with some red ingredients, so it turns red when you boil it. It's delicious, isn't it? This is my secret recipe. Eat a few pieces on the way, and you won't go hungry."
You didn't seem to have eaten enough.
"..." Qin Meng's expression became particularly strange. It wasn't disgust, but rather a look of wanting to say something but holding back as he looked at her.
However, this has nothing to do with He Suining. She just needs to finish her own business and prevent Qin Meng from eventually being unable to resist drinking human blood and having his identity exposed.
She placed the plate next to Qin Meng, saying, "You eat it, I'll go check on the peaches."
As Qin Meng watched her get up and walk away, he suddenly shouted, "I'll earn money to pay you back!"
He doesn't like owing favors to others.
and……
Could He Suining actually have feelings for him? Otherwise, why would she treat him so well?
Looking at the plate of pastries.
Qin Meng frowned and fell into deep thought.
When He Suining found Tao, Tao was shopping nearby.
Unexpectedly, this group of people turned out to be a group of merchants, selling things at a stall.
When Tao saw her arrive, she quickly waved, "Ningning, come here quickly! There are so many beautiful pieces of jewelry, let's buy some too."
She had never dressed herself up properly before.
All the money was spent on romance novels, and she also had to fight wild beasts from time to time, so she was not suited to wearing jewelry at all.
But it can be done now.
Tao picked out a cute peach hair clip, stuck it on her bangs, and looked at He Suining with her head shaking, "Is it pretty? Is it pretty?"
He Suining patted her head.
Since I had nothing else to do, I just curiously looked around at the stalls.
Unfortunately, she wasn't very interested in anything here.
Sudden.
Something caught her attention.
She crouched down and held the hairband in her hand; it felt soft. The hairband was actually gradient-colored, gradually changing from black to red. It was a long hairband; if a tall person wore it, it would definitely look very elegant.
He Suining stared at the hairband in her hand, wondering for some reason why she had bought it.
It's not expensive.
He wrapped the hairband up and carefully placed it in the carriage's trunk.
Tao's hurried footsteps sounded beside her.
He Suining looked at her.
She was just feeling happy, but now her face is all scrunched up. "Ningning, this is infuriating! Guess who I just saw! My god, I never thought I'd run into a scumbag in a place like this! He's still alive, wicked people really do live a long life."
Without He Suining even needing to guess, she rattled off everything.
He pointed over there.
He Suining turned her head and looked over—it was a carriage that was much more beautiful and luxurious than theirs, with maids bustling around and mercenaries protecting it.
It's obvious at a glance that it's a rich person's carriage.
