Chapter 138: The World-Fixing Monkey Returns
Chapter 138: Chapter 138: The World-Fixing Monkey Returns
The group said goodbye to the Tiger Whales and left without looking back!!
The Tiger Whales watched Gu Zhao wistfully.
’This isn’t quite how we imagined it would go...’
A few of the Tiger Whales glanced at each other.
Just then, another Tiger Whale rushed over from the depths, a huge clam in its mouth.
The other Tiger Whales took one look at it and instantly blew a fuse.
"It’s him! The rotten traitor who lured our Xiangxiang away!" one of the Tiger Whales recognized.
"You bastard! I’m going to feed you to the Devil Fish!" The other Tiger Whales surrounded it and immediately started beating it up.
The "trafficker" whale whimpered and dodged, its eyes fixed wistfully in the direction Gu Zhao had disappeared.
’Aaaah, I was too late!’
’So many of these useless brethren, and not a single one could hold on to our little Xiangxiang!!’
’Useless! And they dare to hit me!’
The trafficker whale spat out the clam and joined the brawl.
Completely oblivious, Gu Zhao was holding the fish and still pondering whether to roast it, boil it, or pan-fry it.
As she thought about it, she remembered that all her pots and pans were gone.
A pang of heartache struck her again.
She had no interest in looting whatever junk Ye Zexi had on him.
"Sigh."
Gu Xulin glanced at her, then continued walking.
"Sigh," Gu Zhao sighed again.
Gu Xulin: ??
"What are you so sad about?"
"I want roasted fish, pan-fried fish, boiled fish..." Gu Zhao said pitifully, counting on her fingers.
Hearing this, Gu Xulin also remembered they had nothing. "Well, we can dream about it."
They had fish, but no way to cook it.
This was the second time Gu Zhao had to endure such a painful experience.
Gu Zhao sighed again.
"Sigh."
’Life with my actual brother isn’t even as good as it was with Brother Jia. The food was better, the sleep was better.’
’Oh, Brother Jia~ Your Little Flower misses you~’
When Jia Xu woke up, his head was throbbing, and the sight before him nearly made him pass out again.
The cages they used for animals were now holding him and all the personnel from his base!
And standing beside the cages was a group of fully equipped soldiers.
"Boss, your sister knocked me out!" someone in a white lab coat complained the moment they saw Jia Xu wake up.
"Boss, me too!"
"Me, me, me! She jumped up on the bed to hit me!"
Listening to their chatter, Jia Xu’s face turned as black as charcoal.
Ye Zuiyi, locked in a separate cage, heard them and sneered. "You all actually got played by a little kid."
"Some sister. Her brother is definitely not you," she taunted.
’A bunch of idiots, getting run in circles by a single Gu Zhao.’
"Shut up!" Jia Xu, his face dark, snapped at Ye Zuiyi.
’Who the hell does she think she is, mocking me.’
"That ’sister’ of yours, is her name Gu Zhao?" Ye Zuiyi’s eyes were filled with mockery.
Jia Xu: "Her name is Jia Hua."
The second he said it, his face grew even darker. The realization hit him.
’Jia Hua? What a joke! Her very name was a lie!’
Jia Xu laughed, seething. "Just wait until I get my hands on you! Gu Zhao!"
He gritted his teeth.
"All of you, quiet down!" one of the guards yelled.
’Gossiping is one thing, but plotting to capture someone? The nerve!’
...
By the crevasse.
Ye Zexi was beside himself with worry. The seconds and minutes ticked by with no sign of life from below.
His mood grew increasingly foul, especially since there was no one up top who could keep him in check.
"Did they all die down there!?"
"And what is Big Brother doing?! Why hasn’t he sent a rescue team yet?!"
The Jiang Yifeng brothers squatted to the side, frowning.
’This guy is such an idiot,’ they thought.
The people hired by the production team found a spot nearby to pitch tents and prepare food.
One of them walked over to console him. "You should eat something first. Otherwise, your body won’t be able to hold up."
Jiang Yifeng and Jiang Yuchen nodded in thanks.
"Don’t mention it, go on and eat."
Ye Zexi was extremely agitated, his mind consumed with worry for Ye Zuiyi.
"Eat? What is there to eat! My sister’s fate is unknown, and you people still have the nerve to eat!"
The more he thought, the more frustrated he became. He strode over to the food, intending to kick it all over.
A man standing guard saw this and sent him flying with a single kick.
After kicking him, the man silently retracted his foot, ran to Ye Zexi’s side, and apologized, "I’m so sorry, so sorry. I used to be a cook in the army, so I overreacted when I saw you about to kick the food. Are you okay? I’m really, really sorry."
Ye Zexi lay on the snow, clutching his stomach in pain.
A drone even flew down to get a close-up shot.
Ye Zexi’s face was contorted in pain.
[Is there something wrong with the whole Ye Family?]
[Is this show scripted or what? It feels like after Ye Zuiyi disappeared, Ye Zexi lost his brain too. Are all guys with sister complexes this terrifying?]
[It’s not that he’s brainless, it’s a classic case of anxiety clouding his judgment + caring too much leading to chaos.]
[Did he just try to kick the food?! To hell with ’anxiety clouding his judgment’! He’s just an ass! He doesn’t know the importance of food!]
[The Ye Family’s antics are getting more and more baffling. I suggest renaming the show "Ye Family’s Greatest Baffling Moments".]
An expression of disgust appeared on Jiang Yuchen’s usually stoic face. He pulled out his math olympiad problems, preparing to do some questions to calm down.
Meanwhile, no one noticed a group of people behind a small snowdrift on the mountain.
Gu Zhao was lying on the snow, furtively observing the scene across from them.
"Huh, why are there so many people?"
Song Yi quickly looked over too. "They all look like they could knock me out with one punch."
Gu Jiao also scooted over to look. "Do you think they brought spicy strips with them on their outing?"
There was a bitter taste in her mouth, completely bland. She missed them.
"It smells so good..." Zhong Mingrui sniffed the air. He rubbed his belly, suddenly feeling hungry again.
The four adults exchanged a glance, their eyes filled with speechlessness.
To think they had four such "clever" children.
How moving.
"Let’s sneak over!" Gu Zhao was curious about what they were doing.
The children were instantly excited.
Gu Zhao then looked at Gu Xulin and the others.
"Brother, you guys stay put and don’t move. We’re going to go steal some food to support you."
After speaking, Gu Zhao dropped to the ground and began to crawl forward on her stomach.
Soon, the four little ones had crawled behind a tent.
Inside the tent, only Jiang Yuchen was quietly working on his problems. The others had finished eating and gone to keep watch near the crevasse, afraid that if something happened to the people below, they wouldn’t be able to get up in time.
Gu Zhao made a hand signal to Zhong Mingrui and the other two.
She pointed at them, then at the ground where they were. Then she pointed to herself and to Ye Zexi, who was lying in the snow.
’You guys stay here, I’m going to check him out.’
Zhong Mingrui tilted his head, then nodded vigorously. He understood!
’Big King wants us to crawl over and scout! Then we drag Ye Zexi back for Big King to pass judgment!’
Then, just as Gu Zhao was about to crawl forward, Zhong Mingrui scrambled away.
Gu Zhao was completely bewildered.
She looked at the other two, who were just as baffled, her face a mask of confusion.
’Where did he go?’
’Is he trying to rebel?’
Gu Zhao got angry and shoved her face into the snow.
’Calm down! The underling is still young!’
’Can’t beat him up!!’
’Spank his butt!!!’
Gu Zhao pulled her head out of the snow and also started wiggling her way over.
Song Yi and Gu Jiao were even more confused.
Inside the tent, Jiang Yuchen, who was doing his math problems, heard a sound. His grip on his workbook tightened.
He went outside, intending to tell someone, but found everyone busy. Even Jiang Yifeng was helping clean a pot with snow.
He thought for a few seconds, then walked behind the tent by himself.
A drone followed beside him.
And what he saw stunned him.
His eyes met with two pairs of eyes.
Silence.
The live comments exploded.
[Who’s that! Who’s that! WHO IS THAT!!!!!]
[AHHHHHHHHHHHHHH!! SHE’S BACK!]
[The monkey who’s here to fix the world, she’s back!]
[Chapter One: Birth of the Monkey King!! Speaking of which, where is MY Monkey King??!!]
