“What’s the matter?” Du Yue asked him, suppressing her disgust.
The man with messy hair smiled wickedly. “Pretty lady, you looked at me a few times when you pa.s.sed by just now. I noticed it. It’s just that I was chatting with everyone just now and didn’t have the time to greet you. But I finally got the chance to rush over to look for you.”
At this point, the man smiled while baring his teeth. His mouth was full of yellow teeth, and just looking at them made one feel nauseous. Du Yue took two more steps back and looked at the man with a dark gaze. The man did not notice this at all. He still had a wretched smile on his face. “Pretty lady, have you eaten the new type of food in the base? I have some in my hands, so 1 can give it to you.”
Du Yue raised her eyebrows.
“How generous of you.”
Hearing that, the man was excited. He nodded and said, “Of course, I’m famous for being generous in the base. Pretty lady, you just got to know me, so that’s understandable. But it doesn’t matter. It’s not too late for us to be friends now.
I have a new variety of potatoes and sweet potatoes at home. Do you want to come back with me to get some?”
Du Yue smiled. “It’s not enough for me to understand you. I need everyone to understand you before you’ll be enlightened.”
The man was slightly stunned. He did not quite understand what Du Yue meant. “Pretty lady, what are you saying?”
Before the man could finish, Du Yue looked at the group of people standing not far away and shouted, “Everyone, come quickly. This kind-hearted person said that he has a lot of food and wants to share it with everyone!”
At this moment, what was the thing that everyone lacked the most? Of course, it was food! Hearing Du Yue’s words, everyone was instantly interested and rushed toward the man.
Seeing so many people, the man was so scared that he took a few steps back. He quickly went to Du Yue and said, “Pretty lady, how could you lie? I want to be friends with you, not them.”
Du Yue shook her head. “That’s not right. You said that you’re a well-known generous person in the base. Then you should make friends with everyone in the world. How can you only want to be friends with me and not others? Do you think that no one else is worthy of being friends with you? Moreover, since we’re all friends, it’s normal for you to help out since we don’t have enough food, right?”
At this moment, the crowd had already gathered in front of the man and were staring at him without relaxing. Under the watchful eyes of the crowd, the man opened his mouth but could not say a word.
He did think that these people were not worthy, but he could only think about it in his heart. If he really said it out loud, would he not be asking for a beating? Du Yue did not even have the chance to add fuel to the fire as the group of people who surrounded the man could not wait to say, “The pretty lady makes sense. Do you think we’re not worthy?”
“Since you’re a kind person, you can’t treat us differently. Otherwise, we won’t agree!”
“That’s right! Good Samaritan, quickly bring out the food and distribute it to everyone. We’re all willing to be friends with you!”
Being surrounded by so many people, the man seemed a little fl.u.s.tered. “No, no, you’ve misunderstood. Why would I feel that you’re not worthy? Actually… I was lying. I don’t have any food from the new harvest at all. I was only lucky enough to eat it once at a relative’s house.”
“Really?”
“Since you don’t have it at home, why did you lie? You even wanted her to go to your home with you to get food? I think you were just trying to trick her into going back with you so that you could do something to her!”
After being exposed, the man blushed in embarra.s.sment. He stammered for a long time before finally admitting it, saying, “I’m sorry, pretty lady. I’m sorry, everyone. I was l.u.s.tful, so I lied.”
As soon as he said this, there was no need for everyone to condemn him. The man wanted to disappear from this world. It was too embarra.s.sing!
The man had already admitted that he was lying. The people who had been surrounding him could only curse and leave when they saw that their hopes were dashed. After these people left, the man finally heaved a sigh of relief. That was close! If these people insisted on following him home, they would definitely empty out all the food he had stored! The most terrifying thing was that even if they emptied the place, it would probably not be enough for them to share. These people would still not let him off in the future…
The man did not dare to think further and quickly looked at Du Yue. Du Yue had been standing at the side. When the man looked over, she smiled disdainfully at him. “What? You want to share some food with me?”
The man quickly turned around and looked at the crowd, afraid that they would hear something. Sure enough, those people seemed to have ears on the back of their heads. As soon as Du Yue said the word ‘food’, they turned their heads at the same time and began to stare at the man. The man forced a bitter smile and bowed to everyone..
