639 Why Didn’t They Take Care of Chenglin?
“Uncle Gong, don’t just eat meat. Eat some vegetables too. Mother said this is very nutritious.”
Gong Cheng was speechless.
These two unlucky children! Can’t they let my words go and not argue with me?
However, what else could he say? Was he going to argue with the two children?
Even if he wanted to, he had to see if the two adults in front of him would give him a chance.
He could only nod at the two children. “Alright, alright. I’ll eat. You guys eat too. Eat more vegetables and you’ll grow taller.”
Eat? Who would be willing to eat vegetables if they had meat? He was not a domesticated rabbit.
Moreover, he was already a grownup. It did not matter how much taller he grew. He would let the two children eat more vegetables and grow.
In a small forest near Camp Zhan Yun…
Ye Chengzong rushed in angrily and stopped beside a tree that several people were carrying. The more he thought about it, the angrier he became. He could not help but punch the tree trunk.
“Captain, Captain, are you alright?”
The guardian chasing after him was a member of his team. When he saw his captain’s hand bleeding, he could not help but approach him with concern.
“Don’t be angry. Chenglin has her own choices. Maybe she thinks leaving with Ming Fucheng is best for her. Yueming Empire has much more resources than us. Chenglin’s future achievements might be better than ours,” he persuaded.
Actually, he was just trying to find something to say. He could not possibly say that Ye Chenglin had committed a heinous crime by betraying their master, right?
Although he thought so, he did not dare say it in front of his captain. He did not want to offend Ye Chengzong.
Ye Chengzong took a deep breath and looked at him with bloodshot eyes.
“Old Jiang, why didn’t they take care of Chenglin? I’ve already troubled them to do so. Can’t they take better care of Chenglin for my sake?”
He now firmly believed that Ye Chenglin left with Ming Fucheng because she had been ostracized by the guardians at Spirit Severing Cliff.
“Huh?” Old Jiang did not understand what Ye Chengzong meant.
After thinking for a while, he finally understood. Was he blaming their brothers at the Spirit Severing Cliff for Ye Chenglin’s betrayal?
But what did this have to do with them?
Everyone knew what Ye Chenglin was like.
If she could know her place, she would not have offended the Mistress and the Master, right?
Moreover, he did not believe that his brothers from the Spirit Severing Cliff would not take care of Ye Chenglin.
Why did Ye Chengzong not consider this? It was already exhausting to kill demonic beasts in the swamp daily. Who would have the time to take care of others?
If it were someone who did not cause trouble, they could take care of them and offer assistance.
But what about Ye Chenglin?
She was someone who caused a lot of trouble! She could offend others with just a few words. If Ye Chengzong wanted everyone to take care of her, it would inevitably result in everyone catering to her every whim and fancy.
Wouldn’t she take it for granted and become even more conceited, assuming everyone would do things for her brother’s sake?
