The most poisonous female supporting role in the end times

Although Su Tang wanted to leave the Dead City as soon as possible, she knew in her heart that Meng Huo was right and now was not the time.

Not to mention that her strength was there, the chance of her surviving after leaving the city was too small. Just because she had just made the wine waiter and Meng Liangguang still had an impression of her as Wang Mu's apprentice, it would be unwise to leave rashly.

Fortunately, Meng Huo was quite proactive and found a separate place for her to live that same day.

This place is located in the middle-class area, but not far from the upper-class area. If Wang Mu's furniture store opens, it will be convenient for her to go there. The most important thing is that it is rare and quiet.

The management of identity and ability level in the middle district is not so strict. As long as you are an ability user and have enough crystal cores, you can settle here, so there is no shortage of people from the upper districts who come here to settle down. In the residential area, there are lanes and lanes, and each house is slightly separated by a distance. Each house has a single door and a high wall, so the confidentiality is very good. As long as there is no earth-shattering noise, no one will pay attention to who lives inside.

Su Tang followed Meng Huo into the courtyard, feeling very satisfied. Not to mention, the other party even specially connected the two unused rooms in the house and built a studio, which was full of tools and materials for making tools. She took a quick look and found that these things were only slightly inferior to those in the City Lord's Mansion.

Even if it's for the design, isn't this a bit too much?

Su Tang became gloomy without paying attention.

There is no way. In this world, even if there is a deal between two people who have never spoken to each other for a few words, they would not think so carefully!

Meng Huo seemed very calm. "These are just a piece of cake for me, but if these things can make your design more refined or even innovative, then it will be worth it."

It turns out to be a profiteer! Su Tang muttered to himself.

However, she felt at ease because the other party had made his thoughts clear.

"That's not impossible..." She smiled and blinked, not at all frightened by Meng Huo's always serious face. In her previous life, her grandfather liked to keep a straight face like this. Even if he cared, he had to put on a tough face, and she was used to it. Although this man did this just for profit, it was better to deal with such a person than Meng Xiang.

A face full of peach blossoms is the most annoying thing!

"That's the best. I won't set a time limit. You can decide for yourself. The most important thing is the result."

"I understand. Don't worry, I've got the deposit, I will definitely do my best." When she mentioned this, she couldn't help but smile even sweeter. This guy was really generous, there were more than a hundred second-level crystal cores in that bag alone, and that was just the deposit.

Even if he is not the young city lord, he is still an absolute rich man!

Seeing that she was as satisfied as a cat that had just eaten fish, Meng Huo revealed a hint of smile in his eyes.

After all, she was still a little girl, and she didn't understand how valuable her designs were. Since the end of the world, the role of hot weapons has become less and less, and humans have discovered what they have overlooked. The cold weapons passed down from their ancestors have been forgotten for too long. Learning to use them is not easy, but making them is even more difficult. The standard swords in the factory are increasingly unable to meet human needs, and weapons that can truly be called sharp blades are no longer something that can be exchanged for crystal cores alone.

To be honest, I got the better deal from her.

All these thoughts flashed through his mind. Of course, when Su Tang turned around all the rooms and looked at him, Meng Huo had already suppressed all his emotions and said goodbye.

Nodding, Su Tang was also anxious to be alone.

Finally being able to make things without any worries, she couldn't wait to dive into the studio.

On the other side, Meng Huo left the intermediate area and returned to the City Lord's Mansion. Just as he entered the yard and before he could sit down, Meng Xiang came to his door.

"Where did you take Su Tang?"

Facing the questioning of his half-brother, Meng Huo knew that he must have gotten the news from his father. He smiled slightly and said, "I can ask her for help, but I won't restrict her. It's her freedom to go wherever she wants."

Meng Xiang snorted coldly, "Put away your hypocrisy! Do you really think I don't know what you did while I was away?!"

"Oh? What did I do?"

"Do you really want me to explain it clearly? The crossbow matter will be leaked out, and you dare to say it wasn't your work!"

Meng Huo's eyes gleamed fiercely, "So what? You embezzled a large amount of resources from the mansion to make weapons. Shouldn't your father, the city lord, know about this? Or are you planning to use public resources for personal gain, establish your own armed forces, and prepare to fight against the city lord?"

Meng Xiang gritted his teeth in hatred, "Don't put the blame on me. Don't say I don't have this plan. Even if I do, so what! Don't forget, in my father's eyes, as long as there is strength, he doesn't mind the means at all. He said long ago that if anyone among us can surpass him, he would rather step down! You are not motivated, and you are blocking my way. It seems that you have forgotten that in this city, I am the young city lord, not you, Young Master Meng!"

With a slight mocking arc on his lips, Meng Huo knew that the other party's ambition was not something he could dissuade. In fact, he had no intention of persuading him.

He chose to secretly pass the message to Meng Liangguang just to remind him and fulfill his duty as a son.

As for how he decides, that is his business.

If he was willing to be the trial stone for his beloved son to ascend to the throne, he would have nothing to say.

After all, he won't stay long this time.

"Your intention has been confirmed, and you can leave now."

Meng Huo's stern face was like a stone, impervious to water.

Knowing that he couldn't ask more, Meng Xiang suppressed his anger and left. Before he took control of the City Lord's Mansion, it was impossible for him to really fall out with the other party. They all knew this. But he couldn't do it in private.

After leaving Meng Huo's residence, he told his men to keep an eye on the place and to send someone out to find Su Tang's whereabouts. He then headed towards the guest house.

Wang Mu and Lu Nuan, who were arranged to chat there, had been chatting for quite some time.

Wang Mu felt deeply guilty towards his niece.

From Lu Nuan’s tearful confession, he saw a modern version of Cinderella!

At a young age, her father, at the instigation of her stepmother, threw her into the hunting team in the name of training, and made her hunt with a bunch of grown men. Even though she was a rare thunder-type mutant, he could imagine how much hardship this niece had to endure to survive!

He regrets it!

When his sister just passed away, he had thought about taking Lu Nuan away.

At that time, Lu Linfu had not yet taken the position of the Lord of the Northern City of the Three Major Bases. Although he had his own power, his life was quite unstable. He was afraid that the other party would not take care of his sister's only blood, so he made an impassioned plea to take Lu Nuan away from the dangerous situation.

Because of this, he and Lu Linfu even had a falling out. Even Lu Nuan misunderstood him, thinking that he was deliberately going against her father and said some hurtful words.

Only then did he become cold-hearted and give up the idea, and left alone.

Later, when life was tough, he heard that Lu Linfu had become the city lord, and he was glad that he didn't take Lu Nuan with him and let her suffer with him. He thought she must be living a life like a princess, so although he missed her, he didn't think of going out to visit her.

Who would have thought that everything would change after Lu Linfu married another woman...

"It's your uncle who is sorry for you!" Wang Mu wiped his face, his eyes were red, and he secretly made up his mind that from now on he must protect his only relative well!

Lu Nuan shook her head and said considerately, "I was young and ignorant at the time, and I made my uncle sad. Let's not talk about the past anymore. Isn't it good now? I left there and saw my uncle again. The days to come will definitely get better and better!"

"But that woman hurt you like this. If the young city lord hadn't happened to pass by and saved you, maybe... could we just let her go? No, I..."

"Uncle!" Lu Nuan interrupted him, "Father believes in her and protects her. We don't have the ability to fight her yet. But don't worry, there is still a long way to go, and we will settle this account with her one day!"

The voice was filled with icy coldness as he spoke each word, and even a man like Wang Mu couldn't help but shudder.

But then he thought, Nuannuan... must have suffered too much! He felt even more distressed.

"Okay! No matter what you want to do, uncle will help you!"

Lu Nuan smiled slightly, then changed her mind and said, "I was only talking about my business, and forgot to ask why you were in the City Lord's Mansion?"

"Well, it's a long story..." Wang Mu told the story of how he took in Su Tang, how talented he was, and how he became the wine waiter and was appreciated by the city lord. In his heart, he would not keep any secrets from Lu Nuan. He felt much better to have someone to talk to about what he had been holding back. He felt very uncomfortable to occupy Su Tang's achievements.

However, the speaker may not have meant it, but the listener may have taken it seriously.

When Lu Nuan heard that Su Tang had such ability and seemed to have an entanglement with Meng Xiang, an ambiguous light flashed across her eyes.

"So, that Su Tang is really amazing. He is so lucky to have been admired by the young city lord."

"Haha, who said it wasn't. But that girl is very opinionated. Let's just talk about it in private and don't cause trouble for her. She really doesn't have that kind of interest in the young city lord! That day, they..."

"Oh?"

After hearing the whole story, Lu Nuan curled the corners of her lips. Interesting!

Not to mention that Meng Xiang himself was outstanding in both appearance and strength, his status as the young city lord of the Dead City alone was enough to attract many women, but a low-level psychic seemed to be dismissive of him... Was he playing hard to get, or was he really indifferent? And Meng Xiang's attitude... was also worth pondering.

After all, this man is a character.

If possible, she would definitely need his help in her future plans.

Of course, one should be cautious in the way of making friends.

At this time, Wang Mu had already mentioned the city lord's promise to help him open a store in the inner city, "Nuannuan, the environment in the upper-class area is still very good. We will live together in the future. This time, uncle will definitely take good care of you!"

Lu Nuan came back to her senses and was about to shake her head when there was a knock on the door.

She smiled, pretended not to hear Wang Mu's words, and got up to open the door.
