Chapter 168: They've finally separated.
Xia Gu's words plunged Zhang Fenglin into utter despair, making him feel that he was no longer capable of doing this.
"I don't want to do this anymore. Why don't you just let me go homeless? I suddenly think being homeless is not so bad."
Zhang Fenglin looked at Xia Gu with a weary expression, hoping that Xia Gu could grant him this favor, so that he wouldn't be so annoyed.
"That won't do. I'll find you a wife then, and she can work hard with you. Wouldn't that be great? Don't think too much about it. Just focus on what you're doing."
"You should know that you're very popular here, and everyone relies on you a lot."
Xia Gu said this very excitedly, but for Zhang Fenglin, these were all superfluous matters and had no meaning whatsoever.
"Come on, I don't want to rely on you like this. Just get someone to come work for me as soon as possible, and don't say anything else."
Zhang Fenglin's attitude was very firm; everything depended on Xia Gu doing it conscientiously on her own.
Xia Gu was overjoyed when she saw this, so she had no choice but to get busy inside as well.
After finishing everything, Xia Gu returned to her resting place and suddenly realized that Xiao Bai was indeed somewhat innocent, because she was very tired after a whole day.
Those herbs require careful management; otherwise, they will be lost or mutated. This is indeed a very difficult task.
When Xue Lan saw Xia Gu like this, she naturally felt a little sorry for her. She had originally thought that Xia Gu should rest in the cave, but she didn't expect Xia Gu to be so determined to go out and help.
"Don't talk about me like that. This isn't my first time having a child. I think I can handle these things on my own."
"I find it very boring to stay here, so I might as well come out. The processing center doesn't need so many people, and those products aren't that easy to sell anyway."
Although she could take action, Xia Gu felt that herbs would be more effective. After all, everyone needed those herbs and they needed to be stockpiled, so she had to manage things here well.
“Okay, no problem. When new people come to the tribe, I won’t assign them to the processing center. The processing center already has enough people, and I can manage them well.”
Xue Lan felt that if there were more people, she might not be able to manage them all by herself. The main problem was that these people needed constant reminders and close supervision, otherwise they would simply slack off.
But they were a newly established tribe, so it was perfectly normal for them to face such situations. Xue Lan had her own ideas on how to deal with it.
"Jin Long hasn't shown up all day. Will Li Xun have to continue taking care of him after she goes back?"
"How about we take a walk over there later and see? If Jinlong is really sick, then there's nothing we can do. But if he's faking it, then you'll have to teach him a lesson."
At this moment, Xia Gu felt that this was the most important thing, because there were many unpredictable situations. If Li Xun continued to be bullied like this, it would definitely not be acceptable.
"You still have energy? I thought you were going to lie flat on the blanket. I didn't expect you to still be thinking about helping others solve problems."
Xue Lan was somewhat surprised, always feeling that Xia Gu had inexhaustible energy, but it seemed to be true. After all, if one person establishes a tribe, then one wants to handle everything, big and small, by oneself.
Thinking about it this way, things become normal, and there's no way to refuse, because Xia Gu has never delayed doing what she wants to do.
Soon, Xia Gu and Xue Lan walked out of the stone cave together. They went over there and, as expected, heard some surprising things.
The characters Li Xun and Jin Long are clearly arguing, and they're arguing fiercely.
"We've already agreed to go to work, why aren't you going? You're clearly not taking this seriously. Do you really think this is the right thing to do?"
"Besides, your illness isn't very serious and won't affect your work at all. If you just abruptly refuse to go, many people will be disappointed in you. If this continues, we simply won't be able to raise the cubs."
Li Xun explained everything clearly, her purpose being to make Jin Long take responsibility, otherwise the whole situation would only get worse.
“If you want to go, then go by yourself. I don’t think there’s any need for you to go at all. They recruited us to this tribe, so we shouldn’t be doing any work. If we have to do work, then there’s no point in it, since their tribe is already short of people.”
“If that’s the case, we might as well go back to our old tribe. I’m very familiar with that tribe, and I don’t have to socialize with anyone. We can definitely support our cubs. You understand that.”
Upon hearing this, Li Xun found it utterly ridiculous. She never expected Jin Long to say something like that, revealing his true intentions right before her eyes.
“What good will it do if we go back? You still won’t know how to work, and we’ll suffer a lot. If I hadn’t gone through what happened before, I would never have joined this tribe.”
"Why can't you think about this situation properly? Just come and work with me, take responsibility for yourself. I don't ask for anything, I just want to raise our cubs with you and let them grow up healthy."
Jinlong still scoffed at the matter, feeling that Li Xun was being far too aggressive.
"You need to understand that you're just a little female, while I'm a male. Do you think you have the right to raise your voice in front of me? I think you've really been asking for trouble lately."
After saying that, Jinlong raised his hand and slapped Li Xun. Li Xun was terrified when she saw this, never expecting that such a nightmare would follow.
Jin Long had already apologized and made promises before, but things still turned out this way. Li Xun was filled with disbelief.
Suddenly, Xue Lan and Xia Gu burst in. Xue Lan blocked Jin Long's slap that was about to land, while Xia Gu shielded Li Qian in her arms.
"Having personally fallen into this trap, you should understand what kind of person this is, right? Do you still want to persist?"
