"I can't do it!"
Duan Zhou was the first to wave his hand, wrapping himself in the blanket like a spring roll, with only his head showing, speaking in a Rongcheng accent.
"My God, this weather is freezing! Anyone can cut it if they want, but I'm not cutting it! It's a small matter if I freeze into an ice block, but what if a bear mistakes it for a spicy rabbit head and eats it?"
He shrank back abruptly, his face filled with lingering fear.
Tao Yuming, who was next to him, also shook his head with a smile, his voice gentle: "I won't go, my health isn't up to it."
He was physically weak and had no interest in wielding weapons.
"Wow!"
Zhao Weiguo slapped his chest with his large, fan-like hands, making a loud "bang" sound, his voice muffled.
He was as big as a wall; you could tell he wasn't someone to mess with.
“I trained in the military compound, so my physical strength is not a problem. I can do this job!”
As soon as he finished speaking, everyone's eyes turned to Gu Jinzhou in the corner.
Gu Jinzhou frowned, looking conflicted.
To be honest, he also craved meat. But his family was wealthy enough not to risk their lives for a bite. But the idea of "hunting" sounded exciting, and he wanted to see it for himself.
But he was too ashamed to ask for help, and he was even more afraid of making a bad impression and losing face.
He hesitated for a long time before vaguely saying, "I... I'll go with you to see what's going on later."
"cut!"
A sneer, undisguised, escaped Yu Hao's lips.
He couldn't stand Gu Jinzhou's hesitant and timid manner, always wanting to go but not daring to.
"What's there to hesitate about!"
Yu Hao puffed out his chest, held his chin high, and his voice was full of undisguised pride.
"I'm definitely going! Not only am I going, but I'm also going to call my brother Yu!"
He looked around and announced triumphantly.
"With my brother Yu here, let alone a wild boar, even a bear wouldn't be enough for him to slap down! We'll be able to come back with a full load and eat meat until we're sick of it!"
He grew up in a military compound, was an excellent marksman, physically strong, and had absolute self-confidence.
But this confidence is nothing compared to that of his brother Yu, who isn't even worthy of carrying his shoes.
In his heart, Yan Yu was a god!
Upon hearing Yu Hao's boast, Tao Yuming's brows furrowed instantly.
Looking at Yu Hao's smug expression, as if he wanted to praise Yan Yu to the skies, his disapproval grew stronger and stronger.
He hesitated for a long time, but finally couldn't hold back and said gently, "Yu Hao, you haven't even asked Yan Zhiqing yet. Is it... not a good idea to make this decision for him?"
Yu Hao was taken aback for a moment, then replied matter-of-factly, "Is that even a question? Of course I'll go!"
In his simple mind, hunting was so fun and there was meat to eat, it was a great thing, how could his brother Yu not go?
Tao Yuming's expression, however, was unusually serious. He looked at Yu Hao and said clearly, word by word:
"Hunting is dangerous, and everyone has their own considerations. You are not him, so it's best not to make decisions for him without his consent."
"This is the most basic respect."
In his previous life, he was always like this, always looking up at the legendary Yan Yu from afar, without even having the courage to go up and say a word.
In this life, he wants to change, to become a friend who can stand shoulder to shoulder with him, instead of a self-righteous follower who only causes him trouble.
Therefore, he understands the weight of the word "respect" better than anyone else.
Yu Hao was a little confused by what he said. He scratched his head, feeling that Tao Yuming was acting strangely today and making a mountain out of a molehill.
"Oh, I know, I know," he waved his hand dismissively.
"That's a brother who's even closer than my own brother, how could he possibly hold a grudge against me for this?"
"Don't worry, he'll definitely go!" (This chapter has been read. Please click to continue reading the next chapter!)
