Beast Control: Starting From SSS Talent

As the footsteps approached, a familiar female voice came: "Li Yong, didn't I tell you that you won't be cooking today?"

"How can we do without cooking? Sister-in-law, have you forgotten?" the man named Li Yong replied.

"Yeah, I seem to remember saying that." The woman said to herself, suddenly stopped, thought for a moment, and hummed softly: "But I said I won't cook today, so I won't cook!"

"Sister-in-law, I..." Li Yong was on the verge of tears. Just when he was about to defend himself, he suddenly saw a pair of shoe prints appearing in the yard. He raised his head and looked over, and suddenly took a breath of cold air.

"Who is there!?" The woman also noticed the abnormality, exclaimed, and ran towards the house.

Li Yong was so frightened that he quickly followed.

Lu Peng didn't expect to be discovered by the other party. He didn't know whether it was luck or misfortune, so he didn't dare to take action rashly, so he had to choose to lurk and wait quietly.

Li Yong rushed into the house with the woman. Lu Peng looked through the gap and found that only Li Yong and the woman were left in the house, so he quietly poked his head out and was about to look for an opportunity to make a surprise attack. Unexpectedly, the woman had already turned around. Staring in the direction where he was hiding.

"Who!?" Li Yong shouted in panic.

"It's me!" Lu Peng could only admit that the secret channel was in trouble, and it was almost impossible to continue to lurk.

Li Yong was stunned, then became furious and shouted: "Asshole, you haven't left yet!"

"I never thought about leaving, but I didn't expect that your speed would be much slower than I expected." Lu Peng said coldly. Since he had been exposed, he simply stopped hiding and walked out.

Only then did Li Yong notice Lu Peng and asked in surprise: "Is it you? Why are you here? Didn't you leave?"

"I'm leaving, but I don't worry about Zhou Yurou." Lu Peng said calmly, secretly glad that he heard Li Yong's name just now, and then changed his mind to stay.

The woman obviously noticed Lu Peng, frowned at him, and asked, "How did you get in?"

"It's easy to come in, but hard to leave. If you don't believe me, you can give it a try." Lu Peng said lightly, and then continued without giving the woman a chance to speak: "Don't you want to let me go? Why are you helping me?"

"You are a good person, and I don't want to harm you." The woman hesitated, but quickly shook her head firmly and refused, "You'd better leave quickly, the Japanese army is coming soon, and once they search the area, you won't be able to escape. ."

"You misunderstood, I will not run away, whether it is for you or for her." Lu Peng said, feeling warm in his heart. He did not expect that a woman would care about him, let alone that she would be so kind.

"Nonsense!" the woman scolded, pulling Lu Peng out without explanation, and said anxiously: "I know you are very powerful and are not afraid of the Japanese army, but you must not be stupid and show off. Your only way now is to leave quickly. As for Zhou Yurou, it’s not too late to come find her when it’s safe!”

The woman was resolute, but Lu Peng did not struggle and allowed the other party to pull him, feeling warm in his heart.

Li Yong said nothing, narrowed his eyes slightly, looked at Lu Peng warily, and secretly cursed himself for being confused, how could he forget this?

Although Lu Peng didn't look like a bad guy, as he was following him all the way, he might have discovered that Zhou Yurou was alone, so he deliberately approached him, and he could even conclude that Lu Peng was here to kidnap Zhou Yurou.

After thinking about this, Li Yong's eyes flashed with murderous intent, and he snorted: "Who are you? If you are here to save people, you'd better leave immediately, otherwise don't blame me for being rude."

"I am a good person and will not hurt her. On the contrary, I will take her away with me." Lu Peng looked at the woman sincerely and said slowly: "You don't want the Japanese army to catch her either, right?"

The woman was silent, let go of Lu Peng, and struggled. After a while, she gritted her teeth and said, "Okay, you can take her away, but you must ensure that she is safe!"

"I can't guarantee it, but I can guarantee that she won't be wronged in the slightest." Lu Peng said with certainty.

Li Yong smiled disdainfully, as if he didn't believe Lu Peng's words at all, and said coldly: "What guarantee do you have?"

"With this!" Lu Peng took out the dagger and threw it to the ground.

The woman picked up the dagger suspiciously, looked at the blade and made sure it was not damaged, then put it away and said, "You are sensible. If you dare to break your promise, don't blame me for being ruthless."

"Thank you!" Lu Peng nodded gratefully and asked, "What's your name?"

The woman hesitated and looked at Li Yong. Li Yong understood the woman's worries and signaled that he was fine.

Seeing that Li Yong agreed, the woman took a deep look at Lu Peng and then said, "My name is Yang Xiuling, what's yours?"

"My name is..." Lu Peng thought for a moment, but couldn't think of a suitable name, so he blurted out, "Lu Peng."

"Oh." Yang Xiuling nodded and said, "You don't have to do this. I don't like to owe favors."

"This is not a favor, it's just a small effort. I'll return the favor to you." Lu Peng corrected, not wanting Yang Xiuling to feel guilty.

"Okay, just think of me as repaying your favor this time, but next time we'll be clear-cut. If there are no other problems, let's just say goodbye." Yang Xiuling didn't ask any further questions, she said cheerfully, and wanted to leave after that.

Lu Peng stopped Yang Xiuling and asked solemnly: "If you really don't think about it, I think Li Yong is worth entrusting him with for life."

"No need, he is my husband and I love him very much. We are from two different worlds and can never be together." Yang Xiuling said categorically without any trace of hypocrisy. She added before Lu Peng could speak: " I know you want to persuade me to turn back, but you are actually wrong. My parents died when I was young, and I grew up relying on my sisters. She married my second uncle, but I became a widow, so there is no way for us to have a relationship. "

"So that's it, I understand." Lu Peng suddenly realized and finally figured out Yang Xiuling's situation. He couldn't help but smiled bitterly and said: "Maybe you are right, you two really shouldn't be together, but I think You should give yourself a chance and give him a chance, because he thinks so too."

"I know you are a good person, but I have made a decision. Please don't interfere in our marriage, otherwise I will really hate you." Yang Xiuling spoke coldly and looked at Lu Peng with a complicated expression.

"I understand, I wish you the best, don't worry, I won't pester you." Lu Peng smiled bitterly, no longer forcing himself.

Yang Xiuling breathed a sigh of relief, nodded to Lu Peng, turned around, said goodbye to Li Yong, and walked away quickly.

"Xiao Ling!" Li Yong shouted, looked at Lu Peng, with murderous intent surging in his eyes, as if he would take action at any time, the corners of his mouth twitched a few times, and finally suppressed the impulse, and said harshly: "The surname is Lu Yes, I'll let you go for now, but if you dare to appear in front of me next time, don't blame me for being rude to you." After saying that, he turned and left, quickly disappearing into the night.

"Thank you!"

Lu Peng knew that Li Yong's threat was directed at him and had only one purpose, which was to delay as much time as possible so that he could have enough time to remove the anesthetic in Zhou Yurou's body, so he stopped talking and stared at the woman's back. , called softly, "Your name is Yang Xiuling?"

"So what?" The woman stopped, turned around and looked at Lu Peng, and said in a neither humble nor condescending manner: "You should be glad that you didn't hurt her, otherwise you wouldn't be alive to see me tonight, but even so, I still won't forgive you. you!"

"I said I wouldn't hurt her. I just hope she has a good life, not just now." Lu Peng paused and asked, "Why is she with you?"

"She and I are classmates. Thanks to her care these years, otherwise I would have starved to death." Yang Xiuling sighed, and suddenly froze when she said this, her eyes widened in surprise, and she looked at Lu Peng in surprise. .

"There is no need to doubt who I am. Since I promised Zhou Yurou, I will not break my promise. No matter whether you really love Li Yong or not, I will support your choice." Lu Peng remained calm and continued: "If I guess If you're right, you were abandoned by your family and sold your body out of necessity to make a living, but don't worry, I won't force you, after all, this matter is disgraceful, and I respect your choice."

After listening to Lu Peng's words, Yang Xiuling showed a guilty expression and hesitated to speak.

"What's wrong?" Lu Peng noticed Yang Xiuling's abnormality and asked with a frown.

"You..." Yang Xiuling opened her mouth, hesitated for a moment, and then said: "Actually, I have not been abandoned by my family, and I am not willing to sell meat to make money, and I am not short of money. All of this is a lie to you. The reason why I am like this I do it because of Li Yong.”

"What?" Lu Peng was stunned and looked at Yang Xiuling in confusion. He did not expect to encounter such a bloody plot. Without waiting for Yang Xiuling to explain, he hurriedly said: "Sorry, I was presumptuous just now, but I want to know why you Will there be a stalemate?"

"Alas!" Yang Xiuling sighed and said, "It's a long story, so let's find a place to sit down and talk slowly."

"Okay!" Lu Peng knew that this matter was not urgent, so he nodded and secretly said that Li Yong was not lucky. At least he had a grateful wife, and then followed Yang Xiuling into the room.

Yang Xiuling simply tidied up the room and asked Lu Peng to sit down. She kept her head down and said nothing, making it difficult to see what she was thinking.

After drinking a glass of hot water, Lu Peng took the initiative to ask, "If you have any difficulties, you might as well tell me. Although I can't help you, I can introduce friends to you, as long as you don't dislike it."

"No." Yang Xiuling raised her head, shook her head, a look of loneliness flashed in her eyes, and said resentfully: "I have no relatives now, only my second aunt is left. If I ignore her, I'm afraid I'll be in trouble in the future. There is no way to see her again.”

"What?!" Lu Peng was shocked. He didn't expect that Li Yong's mother-in-law would encounter such a tragic thing. He couldn't help but think of Yang Xiuling's experience, and vaguely realized that Li Yong must know this situation.

However, considering Li Yong's character, he probably wouldn't mention this matter, so he changed the topic and asked, "How did Li Yong know?"

"He heard it accidentally. Not long ago, he took me to the town to buy things. He encountered a group of hooligans and blocked me. Fortunately, he saved me. The situation was urgent at the time, and he didn't ask me in detail. I forgot to mention it, but he knew what happened to me, and after finding out more about it, he rushed over." Yang Xiuling explained, her face slightly red, looking very shy.

"Where is that person? Did you call the police?" Lu Peng asked.

"Yes." Yang Xiuling nodded, her eyes were a little moist, and she choked with sobs: "I was so scared at the time that I didn't remember to call the police. Then I thought about your village and wanted to ask the villagers to call the police. But when I thought about your nature, I worried that you wouldn't call the police. I knew how to help, and I was about to find another way, but I didn’t expect that Li Yong happened to pass by. Seeing how pitiful I was crying, he discussed with the village chief, took over this mess, and sent me back home.”

"So, you have to thank me." Lu Peng said with a smile.

"Yes." Yang Xiuling wiped away her tears and suddenly became excited when she said this. "You are a good person. I really didn't expect you to help me. You are the first man to be so good to me. The only one. If possible, would you consider marrying me?"

"I..." Lu Peng was speechless for a while, extremely embarrassed. He didn't expect that Yang Xiuling's thinking would jump so much, and she would have an idea all at once.

"Don't worry, I will never pester you. As long as you are willing to marry me, I will move out immediately and never come to you again." Yang Xiuling misunderstood what Lu Peng meant and thought he didn't like her, so she gritted her teeth , said: "I know I'm not worthy of you, but apart from you, I really don't know who else is willing to accept me. Please help me. It's your last favor. If I can't get married in the future, I will I'll be your servant."

"You don't have to do this." Lu Peng didn't know whether to laugh or cry. After thinking about it, he asked seriously: "Are you really willing to marry me?"

"Yes." Yang Xiuling nodded heavily and said firmly: "Whether you can accept it or not, I will follow my own choice."

"Okay, I promise you." Lu Peng took a deep breath, calmed down, and said, "But marriage is not a child's play. You have to think about it carefully. Don't be like my parents, who ended up in a mess."

"No!" Yang Xiuling said firmly, hesitated for a moment, seemed to be organizing her words, and said slowly: "I believe you are a good person, and my parents are not the kind of overbearing and unreasonable people, and you also saved me. I am not an ungrateful person. I also know that Li Yong is not worthy of me at all. It’s just that the two of us are accustomed to relying on each other. We are not suitable to live without each other. Instead of torturing each other when we grow old, it is better to take advantage of the opportunity. We are young and need a reliable support."

"Okay, let's not mention this matter for now. Let's talk about you and Li Yong. How is he doing now?" Lu Peng didn't want to continue discussing this issue and changed the subject.

"Li Yong is very good. Now he has a stable job and his life is very comfortable. Not only does he give me 500 yuan in living expenses every month, but he also promises to spend two days with me every week. He happened to be free last night. This morning He came over and invited me to dinner, saying he wanted to thank me." Yang Xiuling smiled as she spoke, her smile uglier than crying.

Lu Peng remained silent, but there was a huge wave in his heart. He secretly thought that it was no wonder that Li Yong got married at this juncture. It turned out that he wanted to use his father-in-law's wallet to support his mistress. At the same time, in order to protect Yang Xiuling, he would rather put down his dignity and take the initiative to take responsibility.

Putting himself in his shoes, Lu Peng asked himself, if he were Yang Xiuling, even if he felt all kinds of grievances and hatred, he would definitely not refuse this marriage, not to mention that Li Yong's conditions were indeed good.
