"Lu Fei, don't go too far!"

Lu Xiayang looked at the shack that resembled a doghouse and gritted her teeth in anger. How could she humiliate her like this?

"I'm not a sewer, how could I possibly pass through filth? On the contrary, it was you who, during a mission when it was pouring rain, made me stand in the rain to keep watch for everyone, getting soaked like a drowned rat."

Compared to you, I'm already being incredibly kind. What, you don't want to stay? Then get out.

As soon as Lu Fei raised her hand to let Gu Changge throw him out, Lu Xiayang immediately fell silent and limped towards the dilapidated shed.

Seeing the once-imposing special forces soldier reduced to such a state, Lu Fei felt incredibly satisfied. If it weren't for his decent fighting skills, this scum would have died many times over.

Now that he's in Lu Fei's hands, he'll have to learn what it means to "get what you deserve."

A cold glint flashed in her eyes. Lu Fei ignored Lu Xiayang and went back into the house. She had to find out who the unconscious person was. If he was with that idiot, she would throw him out to live in a doghouse.

As soon as I stepped into the room, I saw that the person on the hospital bed was already awake. The boy was not very old, only about eighteen or nineteen years old. His face was pale and expressionless, and his features were so delicate that he looked like a porcelain doll.

A pair of eyes, azure and clear, like the blue sky, like the vast ocean.

Anyone who makes eye contact with him can't help but be mesmerized; what a beautiful pair of eyes!

"You're awake. What's your name? Which base are you from?"

Lu Fei looked at the boy with a faint smile. The boy didn't speak, but just looked at her quietly. After a while, his brows furrowed more and more.

"Deaf-mute? Can you hear me?"

Seeing that the boy was still in a daze, Lu Fei raised her voice, which made the boy's brows furrow even more.

"I can hear you. My name is Mo Yu."

"Your name is Mo Yu?"

Lu Fei raised an eyebrow in surprise, looking at the boy in front of her who didn't seem real, and couldn't help but sigh at how wonderful fate was.

In the novel, Mo Yu has the ability to read minds, see through people's hearts, and occasionally see future events. Since awakening her ability, she has been locked in a secret room in the central base and used by those high-ranking people.

Later, when he escaped, he was rescued by Lu Xue. Because of the jade pendant she wore, Mo Yu could not hear her thoughts. He only felt that she was very special, and his young heart was tied to her.

In the end, he became Lu Xue's loyal admirer, predicting her future and judging her loyalty. Even after Lu Xue got married, he silently protected her, but the male lead found him an eyesore and found a reason to gouge out his eyes.

Mo Yu lost his eyes and became useless. Lu Xue just sighed a couple of times and let him fend for himself. Anyway, he was a pretty pathetic little sycophant.

"System, can he read my mind?"

[Of course not, I'm an all-powerful little system, how could I let such a superpower see through me?]

In my mind, the little honey badger held its head high with pride, its big tail swishing back and forth, looking incredibly arrogant.

Lu Fei breathed a sigh of relief. Thank goodness, otherwise it would have been quite embarrassing for an eighteen or nineteen-year-old to see her mind full of lewd thoughts and a huge inventory of swear words.

"Why did you and Lu Xiayang faint at the entrance of our base? Do you know him?"

Mo Yu could clearly sense that Lu Fei's gaze was strange, but he couldn't read her mind and didn't understand what she meant.

“I don’t know him, I just happened to faint in one place,” Mo Yu lowered her eyes and looked down at her fingers. “Someone told me that running this way would save my life.”

Clearly, Mo Yu wasn't going to reveal her mind-reading ability, and Lu Fei pretended not to know.

However, in order to reduce Lu Xue's support later on, Lu Fei decided to detain this young man.

With a smile, Lu Fei carefully fed him a glass of water.

"You can stay here with peace of mind. Although our Hongjian Base is the poorest, it is also the kindest. As long as you do not do anything to harm the base, we will not kick you out."

Lu Fei thought to herself that if Mo Yu dared to leave, she would have his legs broken. Once he was inside, he could forget about seeing Lu Xue again.

Mo Yu had broken two ribs and was worried about where to go, so when Lu Fei said that, he decided to stay.

Even being poor is better than being locked in a dark, sunless room as a lie detector. Mo Yu slightly raised her eyes to look at Lu Fei. The setting sun shone through the window and shone on her, casting a warm halo on her fair face.

As she drew near, a sweet fragrance wafted over, soothing Mo Yu's restless heart. She felt peaceful and fell asleep without realizing it.

After leaving the ward, Lu Fei told Gu Changge to find someone to take good care of him, but not to say anything else, so as not to know too much and be read by Mo Yu.

After two days of hard work, we finally cleaned up three acres of land. Although it wasn't much, it was enough to surprise everyone.

Grandpa Dou Yuanhua even carried a hoe and did the work himself, not letting anyone else touch it.

Lu Fei also received three random seeds for completing the purification task: corn, chili peppers, and Chinese cabbage.

These are all things that can be used in ordinary times. When Lu Fei gave the seeds to Dou Yuanhua, the old man cried his heart out and promised her that he would definitely plant the land well.

When the others heard that they would be able to eat corn, peppers, and cabbage, they cheered with joy.

He showered Lu Fei with gratitude and praise once again.

"Hmph, it's just a show of mystery. If you're so capable, why didn't you show it back at the Blazing Fire Base? You're still selfish and self-serving."

Unable to bear seeing his younger sister, who had always been suppressed, being fawned over, Lu Xiayang couldn't help but make sarcastic remarks.

Before anyone could object, Lu Fei had already launched into a tirade.

"Yeah, so what? Kill me?" Lu Fei rolled her eyes and looked at Lu Xiayang with a sneer. "You're just looking for trouble, why don't you go do some work?"

"Get up quickly and move building materials, then mix cement to reinforce the city wall."

"I'm injured too, you're being too cruel."

Lu Xiayang pointed to her injured leg and accused Lu Fei of being too cruel, but Lu Fei rolled up her sleeves to reveal the hideous scars on her arm.

"When I broke my arm, didn't you say that young people need to work more to heal faster?"

Stop resting and get to work! If I see you slacking off, I'll beat you to death!

Lu Fei took out a whip from the system and lashed it at Lu Xiayang.

He dodged awkwardly, was whipped several times in the cramped shed, and was finally dragged out by the base staff to work.

Knowing that Lu Xiayang had treated Lu Fei badly before, the people at Hongjian Base also treated him coldly.

They disregarded his injured body, treating women like men, men like livestock, and Lu Xiayang like a forklift, making him do all the heavy and tiring work.

Lu Fei didn't know if she had installed a surveillance device on him, but whenever Lu Xiayang wanted to rest for a while, the whip would follow him like a shadow.

"You eat my food, live in my house, use my things, and you still dare to slack off? I'll beat you to death!"

"An idiot like you needs to be taught a lesson. If it weren't for me, who would bother to discipline you like this!"

Lu Fei wielded the whip with no skill, only hatred, whipping Lu Xiayang until he was rolling on the ground, and even using PUA on him, to the cheers of the surrounding people.

In just a few days, Lu Xiayang was exhausted and became extremely thin.

He gets up earlier than the chickens and goes to bed later than the dogs. He eats the worst food and sleeps in the simplest conditions. He works as soon as he opens his eyes. Now, seeing Lu Fei makes his whole body ache.

His eyes were filled with hatred and fear, and Lu Fei, seeing him like this, found it somewhat boring, so she sent someone to deliver a message to the Blazing Fire Base.

After taking him in for so long, we should at least see some return on our investment!
