Starting Off Survival With A Small Treehouse

”No, no, no! Can the two of you not do this?” Lou Fei’Er quickly got up, trying to hold Zeng Tao down to sit.

But couldn’t move her at all.

It felt like pressing against a piece of steel, without any response.

Under her pressure, Zeng Tao easily stood up as if unstoppably.

However, she didn’t continue impulsively and snorted, sitting back down: ”For Lou Fei’Er’s sake, I won’t stoop to your level. Listen up, without planning for the future, beware you’ll die without knowing how!”

”Haha, you’re ranked eighth, teaching me, ranked fourth?” Xu Xin showed an amused expression.

Zeng Tao gritted her teeth and glared at him.

”Hey, you guys are really something.” Qin Fu leaned back on his chair, looking lazy, ”Is it really necessary to think so much? Why not just go with the flow? With our abilities, if we truly want to pledge allegiance, the explorers shouldn’t reject us, right? We’ll get by as long as we can, and when we can’t, we switch allegiance to District 188. I think it’s not a big problem.”

”You’re a guy, of course, you don’t have to consider so much.” Zeng Tao said discontentedly, ”Pledging allegiance is just a nice way of saying it. Put it bluntly, it’s handing your life over, becoming someone’s slave. I sure want to see what kind of person I’ll pledge allegiance to in the future. At that time, he would definitely do this or that to me. If he’s someone disgusting, I’d rather die!”

”...Do this or that? Are you talking about Xu Xin?” Lou Fei’Er showed a peculiar expression.

”Yeah, who else could it be but him?”

”Uh...” Xu Xin, with a face full of black lines, began to speak, ”These are things women like Lou Fei’Er need to consider, but for you...”

He looked Zeng Tao up and down a few more times, ”Xu Xin is at least a person of note; I doubt he’d be that perverted.”

Although he was mimicking Yan Haoming’s tone, this was also his personal opinion.

What is this little lass thinking?

Her appearance...

Although legally an adult, but...

Does anyone normal really dare to touch her?

Wouldn’t those who dare be playing with fire?

Zeng Tao took a deep breath and then slowly exhaled with trembling, her voice sneaking out through her teeth, ”Hey, Lou Fei’Er, can I take action? I’m really about to lose my patience.”

”Don’t, don’t, hold it in, hold it in.” Lou Fei’Er quickly persuaded her.

Although she found Zeng Tao’s words somewhat laughable.

Xu Xin hasn’t even touched her. How could he go back to touch a girl who looks like an elementary or middle school student?

No interest in her, but interested in such a young girl?

Then he must be a perverted maniac.

”There are females among the explorers, right? As far as I know, there are at least three. Why don’t you pledge allegiance to a female one?” Qin Fu crossed his legs as he spoke.

From his demeanor, he seemed to have some knowledge of the explorers.

”What a joke, if I really have to join District 188, I’d definitely choose the strongest to pledge allegiance to.” Zeng Tao immediately disapproved of Qin Fu’s suggestion.

”Moreover, being a slave to women... let’s just forget about it!”

If it’s an elder, it’s bearable, but a woman of similar age...

Thinking of a possibly mean woman and remembering those vicious female characters she read about back on Earth...

She directly rejected the idea.

If faced with such a woman, it’d be better to serve a man!

At least he’d be the world’s number-one man.

The second-best one, named Ji Chaoyang, would also be barely acceptable.

”No matter what, this isn’t something we should be considering right now. Let’s handle the snow mountain’s situation first,” Qin Fu lazily leaned against the chair.

As he spoke, he turned to Lou Fei’Er, ”By the way, Lou Fei’Er, you mentioned earlier that your body underwent mutations, right? Why do I feel you look just like any ordinary person?”

”Are you talking about this?” Lou Fei’Er lifted her sleeve in response.

On her arm, there were blood markings swirling around.

”Whoa!” Qin Fu’s eyes focused.

Zeng Tao, however, had a composed expression, ”She showed me before in the room, her whole body is covered in blood markings.”

”Really has mutations like this?” Qin Fu sat up straight, inspecting the blood markings on Lou Fei’Er’s arm, ”This mutation—in other words, it’s your ability, right? Can you make others mutate too?”

”What are you trying to say?” Lou Fei’Er didn’t respond but asked back.
