Quickly wear the heartthrob: She is always coveted by others

Chapter 888: A Strange Shadow in the Mountain Village (7)

"Baby, you call her little sister. She looks taller than you, hahahaha."

A blond boy laughed and hooked the short-haired girl's shoulders. The girl pushed him away angrily and told him to get out.

The yellow-haired man did not let go, but lowered his head and hugged the short-haired girl to apologize. The short-haired girl ignored him, but he made funny faces and made the short-haired girl laugh.

The intimacy between the two people was obvious in their behavior, and Yu Huan concluded at a glance that they were a couple.

However, the young couple's behavior of showing off their love was soon disliked by others.

"Please! Can you two go back and make out again."

The person who spoke this time was still a boy, almost 1.8 meters tall, a little fat, and had a very fair complexion. When he rolled his eyes at the young couple, there was an indescribable naivety in him.

"Xiaopang is right, it's getting dark, let's go back quickly." The one who responded to Xiaopang was a tall girl with bangs. She put one hand on her waist, looking like a queen.

"You lead the way for us, Li, Li Yu."

Yu Jie looked down at Yu Huan, as if she had thought of something, and took out a few candies from her jeans pocket, spread out her palm and handed them to her, "I don't think I saw you yesterday, this is a little gift, your brother also has one, this is for you."

"Thank you...sister." Yu Huan said shamelessly and accepted the candy with a happy face.

She put the candy into her schoolbag and didn't eat it immediately.

"By the way, if you like it, you can ask me for more." The royal sister lifted her long hair and said generously: "I have a lot of soft candies like this in my backpack."

"Well, thank you sister."

Yu Jie seemed to treat Yu Huan as an ordinary child, and her attitude was naturally completely different from Xiu Ping's, but she knew that the other party was also one of the taskers.

Xiaopang and Yujie both wanted to go back, but the yellow-haired man and the short-haired woman had different opinions and wanted to take this opportunity to explore the Crescent Lake.

"Li Yu, you should know where it is, right?" The yellow-haired man looked at Yu Huan excitedly, his eyes full of anticipation.

Yu Huan hesitated: "I'm sorry, actually... I don't remember clearly."

This is of course a lie.

In fact, she knew the location of Crescent Lake very well.

She said that simply because she didn't want to go on an adventure with them. The copy introduction clearly stated at the beginning that Crescent Moon Lake was a dangerous place to start, where people could die!

Yu Huan's main task is to survive, so she keeps in mind the purpose of living - if you don't seek death, you won't die.

The yellow-haired man was a little disappointed, but he didn't force it. "Forget it. We still have time. Let's go next time."

Yu Huan looked apologetic but nodded with satisfaction in her heart. That's right, next time you guys can go wherever you want, she doesn't want to get involved at all.

The group returned home safely. Li Yanhong killed two chickens and prepared a table of food in the yard. The smell of meat could be smelled from far away.

Li Man lay on the table, staring at the chicken, drooling.

Seeing this scene, the blond man and the short-haired woman frowned in unison, feeling a little disgusted.

"You are back, come quickly——"

Li Yanhong greeted them at the top of her voice, acting like a warm-hearted auntie, but when her eyes fell on Yu Huan, she was stuck on the word "eat".

"......Xiao Yu, why did you come back so early today?" The smile on Li Yanhong's face was a little unnatural. Yu Huan guessed that if there were no other people around, her saliva would probably spray on his face.

"Don't you have to go to evening self-study?" she continued to ask.

Before Yu Huan could answer, Li Man slammed the table and protested loudly, "Mom, I'm so hungry, let's eat first!"

Li Yanhong looked at him helplessly, wiped her hands on her apron, and explained in a gentle voice: "Your father hasn't come back yet, you have to wait a little longer."

"No, no!" Li Man lay on the ground, flailing his hands and feet. "I don't care. I'm hungry and I want to eat now."

Seeing him making a fuss, Li Yanhong felt distressed and anxious. She didn't even bother to question her daughter or entertain the tourists. She picked up Li Man and coaxed him, speaking softly, with doting written all over her face.

Yu Huan just treated it as a play.

As outsiders, the five young tourists observed her for a while, mostly with looks of pity and sympathy.

Not long after, the village chief came back and the farce ended.

Yu Huan ate very little during this meal, mostly vegetables, because as soon as her chopsticks touched the chicken, Li Yanhong would glare at her so quickly that it made people feel like they had a heart attack.

The short-haired girl, the royal sister and the fat boy couldn't stand it, so they picked up the chicken for her several times during the meal, which made Li Yanhong very angry, but she didn't know how to say much.

At the dinner table, Yu Huan noticed that there was a person who didn't eat anything but just sat there quietly.

After the mature lady, the young man is the second person to be assigned the task.

His presence was so low that Yu Huan completely ignored him on the way back.

Now that they are at the dinner table, it stands to reason that he wouldn't eat, but the village chief, as the host, would at least mention it and show some concern.

As a result, the village chief and his family all ignored him and focused on chatting and getting close to the other four people, completely ignoring him as if he were air and not even glancing at him out of the corner of their eyes.

Yu Huan was so surprised that he was speechless.

In fact, objectively speaking, the young man is the most conspicuous among the five.

This conspicuousness does not refer to personality, but appearance.

He wore a pair of black-framed glasses and had an ordinary appearance with a somewhat dull expression. But upon closer inspection, Yu Huan discovered that his hair, eyebrows and eyelashes were all white, as if he was a born albinist.

In addition to his appearance, his clothes were also awkward.

In the hot summer, he was the only one wearing long sleeves and long pants, wrapping his whole body tightly, but the skin exposed outside was dazzlingly white, like snow and jade.

What a strange man.

Yu Huan looked away and lowered her head to eat a bite of food. The white-haired young man, whom she called a weirdo, stared at her for a few seconds and then returned to his invisible state.

......

"Village Chief, do you know the legend of Crescent Moon Lake?"

"Crescent Lake, hahaha, of course I know."

"Is it true that Crescent Lake glows at night?" The yellow-haired man couldn't wait to ask the question that had been accumulating for a long time.

"Well..." The village chief drank a glass of hot wine and was silent for more than ten seconds, as if he was deliberately keeping people in suspense.

After everyone looked at him intently, he slowly gave a half-answer.

"Legends are something that if you think they are true, then they are true. If you think they are false, no matter how much others say, it is useless."

"..."

This answer is the same whether it is said or not.

The group of people were speechless.

"We want to go to Crescent Lake tomorrow night." The yellow-haired man smiled again and made a request: "Village Chief, could you please take us there?"

us?

Yu Huan thought, have they decided so quickly?

She glanced at the expressions of the other four people.

The short-haired girl's excited face clearly shows her approval.

Xiaopang was gnawing on a big chicken leg, concentrating on eating, and it seemed that he did not reject this suggestion.

The royal sister folded her hands with a cold expression, but did not object.

The white-haired young man had a dull look in his eyes and was in a trance state, with a weak sense of presence.

No one voted against it, so the decision of the yellow-haired man to visit Crescent Lake tomorrow night was passed unanimously.

The village chief also agreed with a smile.

It’s just that the “tour guide” who led the way was someone else.

"Xiao Yu, don't you have classes tomorrow? You can take them to Crescent Moon Lake for me."

"..."

Yu Huan was stunned, and a bolt of thunder came down from the sky and hit her right on the spot.

"But I..."

"But she said she couldn't remember the way clearly." The short-haired girl frowned and questioned, acting as her substitute.

"Can't you change someone?"

Yu Huan looked at the village chief with expectant eyes.

Yes, yes, change someone.

The village chief hesitated for a while, and when everyone thought he would change his mind, he said: "It doesn't matter if you don't remember the way clearly. There are villagers along the way. You can find out by asking a few questions."

God damn, just ask a few questions.

Several people had a lot to complain about, but they had to agree.

The saddest one was Yu Huan.

She counted the days. After today, tomorrow would be the third day. She hadn't gotten through tonight safely yet, and she had booked another dangerous gift package for tomorrow night.

You must take her life, don't you?

"Xiaoyu, don't you want to?"

The village chief frowned and looked at her quietly.

The atmosphere at the table became tense for a moment.

Yu Huan suppressed all emotions and whispered that she was willing.

"That's good." The village chief smiled kindly, "Remember to come back early and don't stay in Yutou Mountain too long."

"besides--"

"Don't wander around, it's easy to get lost."
