Regret youthful ignorance
Chapter 316 A Real Man
Chen Luo thought Yu Guang would make some impossible requests, like plucking stars from the sky or the moon from the heavens.
If that were the case, he would have to ask him to leave. They really couldn't accomplish that.
Then, under the cover of a dark and windy night, some old schemer would murder and rob him.
But wasn't eating a barbecue a simple enough request to satisfy?
Chen Luo might lack many things, but food wasn't one of them.
Those meats in his spatial storage, the ordinary members hadn't eaten much of them. Even now, they hadn't consumed even a twentieth of it, not even close.
Coincidentally, he had stockpiled everything Yu Guang mentioned.
Kuang Lei sneered, "Don't say we don't have it. Even if we did, why would we satisfy you? Giving a dead man anything is a waste."
Yin Ling shook her head speechlessly and whispered, "Master, ignore him. I think he's lost his mind."
Kuang Lei's intention was to rip him off of his crystal, but Yu Guang wasn't afraid at all. "I never planned on going back alive. Being able to slap the faces of you big shots before I die is enough."
"I just want to teach you how to be humble."
"Hahaha…"
Yu Guang's maniacal laughter came to an abrupt halt because he saw an unbelievable scene.
Chen Luo was smiling dismissively as he slapped item after item onto the table beside him.
All kinds of meat, including the pig trotters, grilled wings, and prawns that Yu Guang had mentioned, were there.
Yu Guang rubbed his eyes, thinking he was hallucinating. How could they appear out of thin air?
Impossible, absolutely impossible.
Yu Guang quickly stepped forward, touching each item, his eyes wide. The texture, even with its coldness, was real.
Yu Guang looked at Chen Luo in disbelief, as if he had seen a ghost.
Chen Luo didn't care that his spatial ability was exposed to Yu Guang, because he would become a dead man tonight anyway.
Yin Ling, Xu Qing, and Kuang Lei were also surprised. Chen Luo actually had them?
Chen Luo had already taught Yin Ling the principles of spatial storage to see if she could master it. It shouldn't be difficult for her.
Yu Guang said in disbelief, "How did you get these things? There shouldn't be any supplies left."
Chen Luo said indifferently, "There's no need to tell you that. Xu Qing, get the cooks and set up the grills. We need to satisfy our guest's request."
Each branch base had ten cooks who came along specifically to prepare meals for the members.
Xu Qing agreed.
Kuang Lei looked at Yu Guang unhappily. "Brother, isn't it too wasteful to let him eat this?"
Chen Luo smiled faintly. "We're doing business, so we have to be trustworthy. We took his crystal, so we have to satisfy his request. We can't rip him off just because he has a bad attitude."
"Even though his crystal isn't worth all this meat, we'll take a small loss since we're just starting out."
"Remember, we win people over with virtue."
Upon hearing this, Kuang Lei looked at Chen Luo with admiration, and Yin Ling was full of worship. Their master's magnanimity was truly great.
Even Yu Guang was surprised, looking at Chen Luo in disbelief.
Chen Luo glanced at Yu Guang. One thing at a time. He would settle the score with him for his insults after he finished eating.
Yu Guang wrung his hands together, swallowing hard, saliva dripping all over the place.
Soon, the cooks busied themselves, cutting meat and starting fires. Chen Luo even took out spices.
Chen Luo ate barbecue a few times a month, especially at night, with beer, which was very enjoyable.
In just half an hour, all sorts of barbecue were ready.
Chen Luo said, "Bring our guest a hundred skewers of chicken, a hundred skewers of pork, and ten prawns."
Sustainable chicken production had already been achieved. Pork was the most abundant. As for prawns, there were only ten, so the portion was small.
This was what Yu Guang had asked for himself, any three items.
Yu Guang opened his mouth wide, wanting to ask for ten bottles of beer.
But when the fragrant, spice-covered grilled meat arrived in front of Yu Guang, he didn't care about anything else and began to feast.
Yu Guang laughed loudly. "Awesome, I, Yu Guang, am actually eating barbecue!"
Chen Luo snorted softly. His last meal.
When Yu Guang saw Chen Luo eating grilled pig trotters, grilled beef, and some grilled vegetables, he suddenly felt that the grilled meat in his hands wasn't so fragrant anymore.
This grilled meat hadn't been marinated, so it was much worse than what Ma Yu made. Chen Luo ate it often and had already eaten dinner, so he only ate a few skewers as a formality.
Xu Qing, Kuang Lei, and Yin Ling were devouring their food.
Chen Luo chuckled. Yin Ling might be following in Zhao Ziyi's footsteps and becoming a glutton. She could really eat.
Okay, Chen Luo overestimated Yin Ling. Not everyone was like Zhao Ziyi. Yin Ling was full after eating thirty skewers.
Kuang Lei drank heavily and ate heartily, saying unclearly, "The best decision I ever made was to follow Brother. If I were still a lone wolf, I wouldn't even be able to eat chicken feed."
Xu Qing was eating a grilled pig trotter, his mouth full of grease, and could only say,
"Me too."
Soon, Yu Guang finished his barbecue.
Chen Luo stood up and said faintly, "Let's go. I'll send you on your way."
Yu Guang's expression froze, and he stood up blankly. "I was disrespectful, and I was prepared for this. But being able to eat a barbecue before I die is satisfying."
Yu Guang was just tired of living, not stupid. Chen Luo being willing to give him barbecue was already beyond his expectations.
Chen Luo grabbed Yu Guang. "Where are your partners?"
Yu Guang cooperated and led Chen Luo to a residential building.
Many low-level lone wolves lived here, almost all of them level four like Yu Guang, or disabled and clinging to life.
Before leaving, Yu Guang left a message that if he didn't return, they should spread the news of Dawn City's incompetence.
Someone saw Yu Guang and exclaimed, "Yu Guang, you actually came back alive?"
Hearing the commotion, a group of people ran out. Some people stared at Chen Luo, revealing covetous looks.
"Look at how fair and tender this kid's skin is, better than a woman's."
Two stinky beggars were about to step forward and touch him.
A cold light flashed in Chen Luo's eyes. The two men were decapitated, scaring the group.
Chen Luo kicked Yu Guang to the ground, forcing him to kneel, and said loudly,
"Did you find Dawn City and request their help?"
Yu Guang actually had a smile on his face.
"I did, I did. Dawn City can really do anything. I, Yu Guang, am convinced."
Chen Luo continued, "Do you admit to being disrespectful?"
Yu Guang nodded. "It was I, Yu Guang, who was blind and underestimated Dawn City."
Chen Guang said, "For offending the majesty of Dawn City, I sentence you to death. Any objections?"
Yu Guang shook his head. "I am convinced and have no objections."
Chen Luo took out a dagger made of dragon feathers. "Will you do it yourself, or should I?"
Yu Guang took it. "I won't dirty your hands, sir. I'll do it myself."
After speaking, Yu Guang took a deep breath and stabbed himself in the heart, saying weakly,
"I'll be a good man again in eighteen years. Brothers, I'll take the first step."
Yu Guang slowly fell down.
The bottom of the apocalypse was full of despair. Death wasn't scary to them; it was a relief.
Chen Luo said indifferently, "He was a man."
