When Meng Rongxuan opened his eyes, he saw an ant crawling on the ground in front of him. The ant had dark brown markings, six feet, and two tentacles on the top of the head trembling slightly.
It was early morning after the rain. The sounds of various insects and birds in the distance came into his ears very clearly.
Meng Rongxuan didnât understand what was going on. He obviously recovered from a serious illness, but why did his vision and hearing become so sharp?
He saw the person sitting next to him.
Although Meng Rongxuan was unable to move the previous night, he was actually very clear-headed. He knew that someone came to him in heavy rain and walked back in with him on their shoulders. They withstood the pressure of everyone and protected him.
It turned out to be just such a weak woman.
The sleeping girl suddenly opened her eyes. The eyes in the morning light looked like an icy pool, and she rolled over indifferently. Meng Rongxuan held grateful words in his throat.
âWoke up?â Chu Qianxunâs emotions were lukewarm.
She saw a few small arcs flashing invisibly on the man.
The boss was still the boss. Everyoneâs abilities were the same as in her previous life, only she had become a weak chicken.
Chu Qianxun took out a bottle of mineral water from her bag and placed it in front of Meng Rongxuan.
She rolled up the blanket and left.
âGet up. We are going to set off,â Chu Qianxun returned to Gao Yanâs side and called out.
The people in the convenience store woke up one after another. Some people, who saw Meng Rongxuan was safe and sound, showed embarrassment.
The middle-aged woman who insisted on driving Meng Rongxuan out whispered, âA few days ago, when the green moon appeared, the young man opposite my house had a fever. After the fever, he was completely covered with scales, and ate people. Yeah, I didnât talk nonsense.â
Outside the door, Chu Qianxun sat in the front seat of the car and yawned greatly.
She was surrounded by people the previous night and didnât dare to really sleep.
Now that she was too sleepy, she told Feng Junlei and Gao Yan to take turns driving, while she planned to sleep on the road.
Someone knocked on the car window,
Chu Qianxun rolled down the car window and looked at the man.
The young Meng Rongxuan didnât have the aura of the strong man that later generations set on him, and he looked a little embarrassed.
His face was flushed with light in his eyes, and he reached out to the car window, âThank you. You saved me twice. I donât know how to thank you. My name is Meng Rongxuan.â
Chu Qianxun stretched out her hand and shook his hand politely, âChu Qianxun.â
She glanced at the commercial vehicle not far away, and the garbage people outside the car, and added, âTake care of yourself and donât care about other peopleâs affairs. Thatâs how you could live longer.â
The window rolled up, the Hummerâs engine roared, and the dust left.
Meng Rongxuan was a little confused. He felt that he still had some experience in fighting demons. He wanted to ask if he could ride in Chu Qianxunâs car, but in the end he was still embarrassed to speak.
His colleagues shoved each other and pushed a girl out of the crowd.
It was the girl who was almost dragged out of the car by the Desecrator at that time which made Meng Rongxuan take the risk to get out of the car and rescue her.
She was also a new saleswoman he was teaching. The girl stepped forward and said timidly, âBrother Meng, Iâm sorry.â
âSorry, there was nothing we could do. The people in the store were so fierce, and we were also scared,â her eyes were red, as if she was the one who was wronged. She stretched out her hand to hold the corner of Meng Rongxuanâs clothes, âForgive us, Brother Meng.â
âYeah, we were wrong, forgive us.â
âWhen I heard that you would become a demon, I was frightened for a while. We will never do such a thing again.â
Several people babbled. Their leader, Meng Rongxuan, was the manager of the entire business department. No matter what the people underneath did wrong, as long as the attitude was correct and they bowed their heads and apologized, he would always be tolerant. He must be the same this time.
Meng Rongxuan looked at this group of people for a moment. Some of these people had been with him for several years, and some had just joined the company. He had taught them all. Usually, Meng Rongxuan felt that they were younger and he was older so he bore all the responsibilities that he shouldnât have on his shoulders.
Only now did he realize that age was not an excuse, and that life and death depended on human nature.
When it was really dangerous, wasnât the woman who saved him younger than everyone?
When the girl left, she looked at him as if he was a fool. It made him feel uncomfortable.
He pulled out the corner of his clothes out of his subordinateâs hand, âIâll give you the car, leave by yourself.â
Meng Rongxuan turned and left without looking back.
âWhy did he leave? I thought he was the manager. He doesnât even look at us now.â
âLetâs just leave. We can sit more spaciously with one less person. I donât believe that we canât carry on without him.â
A faint sound of discussion came from behind.
That voice hit Meng Rongxuanâs heart.
He raised his head and walked forward alone, holding only the bottle of mineral water in his hand.
At this moment, he seemed to let go of the burden on his shoulders and had a different energy.
