On the way up the mountain, Lu Yuan frequently turned her head to look at Xiao Li beside her.
He really couldn't understand why such a weak scholar had to learn how to hunt from hunters?
He wasn't afraid of hitting his head the first time, and now he still thinks about hunting.
He endured it again and again, but finally he couldn't help but asked.
"Why do you have to go hunting? Hunting is so dangerous. What if you encounter a blind bear, a wild boar, or a giant insect like Ergou's father did?"
"What else can we do besides killing them?" Xiao Li said easily.
Lu Yuan couldn't help but roll her eyes. "If you're so powerful, how did you fall so badly last time? If I hadn't caught up with you, you would have died without anyone knowing."
"..." Xiao Li really couldn't answer this question because the original owner really fell to death.
Thinking of this, although it was very immoral, he couldn't help but thank the original owner for that fall, which gave him a second chance to live.
Seeing that he didn't say anything, Lu Yuan raised her chin slightly and snorted a little proudly, "Nothing to say, right?"
Xiao Li lowered his eyes and laughed, "Our little Feng Zheng is really good at talking. If someone wants to quarrel with you in the future, I won't have to worry anymore, right?"
"That won't do!" Lu Yuan angrily pulled his sleeve and emphasized to him very seriously, "I can't argue with others!"
Hearing this, Xiao Li was really at a loss whether to laugh or cry, "So you're picking on me, the only one you can bully?"
Having her secret thoughts exposed bluntly, Lu Yuan's ears burned as she shook off his hand. "Then you are no longer my husband, right? When little daddy was bullied before, daddy always helped little daddy. How can you not help me?"
Hearing this, Xiao Li was stunned.
He himself had never been loved by anyone, so after traveling through the book to this world, he became greedy for the love the Xiao family showed to his original self and treated the Xiao family as his own family.
But in the final analysis, that love belongs to the original body, not to him, Xiao Li.
The little boy obviously grew up in love. Only because of his parents' words and deeds could he subconsciously say such words at this time.
Lu Yuan waited for a long time but didn't hear him speak. She thought he didn't agree, so she felt sad and wronged.
When he looked up and met Xiao Li's dark and deep gaze, he suddenly felt a terrifying feeling as if he was being stared at by a wild beast.
He swallowed fearfully, "W-what happened? Did I say something wrong?"
"No." Xiao Li came back to his senses, his expression softened, and he raised his hand to the top of his head, ruffling his hair. "Yuan'er is right."
Lu Yuan felt as if her whole body was burning, and she didn't know if there was smoke coming out of her head. "Why, why did you suddenly call me Yuan'er?"
"Can't I call you that?" Xiao Li bent down slightly, lowering his head to get closer to him. "Why are your ears and neck so red? Do you like me calling you Yuan'er? Or do you not like it?"
"I like it!" Although Lu Yuan was very shy, she just turned her head away. She didn't want him to think that she didn't like him calling her like that.
"Yeah, I feel it." Xiao Li pinched his red earlobe with a smile in his eyes and teased, "Yuan'er really likes me calling him that."
The hot breath was so close that Lu Yuan had a feeling that if she turned her head over there, she would kiss that person, and her heart was beating so fast.
He raised his hand and pushed the person away a little, "Don't get so close, it would be bad if someone saw us."
Hearing this, Xiao Li put his hands on his waist and laughed, "Yuan'er, why are you so cute?"
No one doesn't like to be praised, but when someone praises you in this tone, it really makes you feel unhappy.
Lu Yuan suppressed her shyness and glared at him, "Why are you like this?"
"Why are you like this!" Xiao Li imitated him and said his catchphrase in unison with him.
Lu Yuan widened her eyes. They were obviously charming peach blossom eyes, but they looked innocent because they became rounder.
He blinked again and again, but still seemed to be in a trance.
He probably didn't expect that there would be such an annoying man who would actually imitate his brother's way of speaking.
Xiao Li stretched out his hand and waved it in front of his eyes, "He's back to life."
Lu Yuan suddenly came back to her senses, gripped the backpack straps tightly with both hands, and walked forward without paying any attention to him.
Seeing that he had made the person angry again, Xiao Li couldn't help but laugh twice before chasing after him to comfort him.
"Okay, okay, don't be angry. I won't imitate your speech next time, okay?"
The young man rolled his eyes at him angrily, showing no intention of talking to him at all.
There was no other way, Xiao Li could only use his usual method and take out a piece of White Rabbit milk candy from the space.
"Little Kite, do you want some candy?"
Hearing this, the young man finally stopped and stretched out his hand to him with confidence, still showing no intention of speaking.
Fortunately, he was willing to pay attention to him. Xiao Li didn't bother with the child and put the candy in his hand.
"If you eat my candy, you can't stay mad at me, okay?"
Lu Yuan snorted lightly as a response to him.
Although the young man still ignored him on the way, as long as he was willing, he would always reply if he asked a few more questions.
After sending Lu Yuan to the place to pick mountain products, Xiao Li used his mental power to check if there were any large wild animals around. He found only some pheasants and rabbits, so he decided to do an experiment.
"You pick some local produce nearby. Don't go too far. I'll go look somewhere else and come back later to go somewhere else with you."
The boy who had been ignoring him at first, when he heard him say he was leaving, looked at him hesitantly, "You..."
"Worried about me?" Xiao Li raised his eyebrows. Seeing him nod, he suddenly felt a little strange.
Although people often worried about him in the past, that was because if he died, it would have a huge impact on the base.
After all, there is not only one base in the apocalypse. A top combat force, plus possessing rare healing abilities, is an important member no matter which base he is in.
Those people were worried about his death, simply because they were afraid that the base would lose a combat force and a nurse who could heal them.
That is to say, in the late apocalypse, the whole world has become stable and the zombies have been mostly eliminated. Otherwise, his second brother might not be able to gather so many people to surround and kill him.
But it was obvious that the young man was worried about him now, not because of his powerful abilities, but because he was his fiancé.
Although it is still based on the young man's own interests, it is undeniable that this kind of concern for him just because he is who he is is really rare.
He rubbed the boy's head, chuckled and assured him, "Don't worry, even if I have to crawl, I will crawl back to marry you."
"Improper!" Lu Yuan scolded him and turned her head away, but she couldn't help but look at him out of the corner of her eyes, obviously caring about his reaction.
