Chapter 261: Han Yixue’s Secret
While Yao Ran and her friends were busy, the Han family also had dinner. However, unlike Yao Ran and her friends, who had tents to sleep in and hot meals, the Han family could only sleep on the ground and eat hard biscuits. They were thirsty, and their throats hurt more after they ate dry biscuits.
Han Yixue watched Yao Ran cook until she was almost done, and then he took something from his backpack and approached her.
Seeing this, Han Renqi hurriedly asked, "Yixue, where are you going?"
Han Yixue signaled to his elder brother to calm down with his eyes before walking away. Watching his second brother approach Yao Ran, Han Renqi felt worried but said nothing.
Han Yixue stopped three steps away from Yao Ran and called her, "Miss Yao."
Hearing someone call her, Yao Ran looked up and asked, "Do you need something?"
Han Yixue nodded and sat across from her, with the bonfire between them. He waited until Yao Ran finished cooking before saying, "Miss Yao, I'd like to make a deal with you."
Yao Ran raised an eyebrow at his words, asking with a hint of interest, "What kind of deal?" Han Yixue opened his hand, revealing a bullet in his palm to Yao Ran.
Seeing the bullet, Yao Ran looked puzzled and asked, "What do you mean by showing me this?"
Han Yixue smiled and said, "I can make a lot of bullets."
Upon hearing this, Yao Ran was skeptical and said, "To make bullets, you need special tools and machines. Do you have them?"
Han Yixue shook his head, "No. But I can still make bullets for you."
As he spoke, he bent down, scooped up a handful of sand, and clenched his hand. Twenty seconds later, he opened his hand, letting the sand fall to the ground. However, a bullet remained in his palm.
Seeing this, Yao Ran's eyes flickered in surprise. She took the bullet from Han Yixue's hand, inspecting it carefully before looking up at him.
Han Yixue didn't wait for Yao Ran to question him further and explained, "Three days ago, I suddenly gained the ability to control elements. I don't know how I got it, but as you can see, I can create new objects as long as I have the materials."
Yao Ran recalled an ability user in her previous life who was famous for his element-control ability. If she remembered correctly, his name was Xue. Thinking about that renowned master, Yao Ran's eyes suddenly lit up.
She looked at the young man in front of her and asked, "What is your name?"
Han Yixue calmly replied, "Han Yixue, 20 years old."
The moment Yao Ran heard his name, she realized that Han Yixue was the famous ability user from her previous life.
After a moment of silence, she asked, "Why did you tell me this?"
Han Yixue looked at his family for a moment, then back at Yao Ran, and replied, "I want to join your team."
Hearing this, Yao Ran thought for a second and said, "With your ability, you can earn a living without needing to join us."
Han Yixue nodded, "You are right. However, I am the only one with this ability, and it will be very dangerous for me and my family if someone covets it. I need protection for my family and myself."
Listening to his words, Yao Ran realized that the reason he was alone and ruthless in her previous life might have been because his family had been killed due to his ability. Since he had already come to her, Yao Ran wouldn't reject this famous master.
With this in mind, Yao Ran said, "It's not impossible for you to join my team."
When Han Yixue heard this, his eyes lit up.
However, before he could thank her, Yao Ran added, "But, you will need to follow our rules and listen to our instructions. We will share supplies with you, but we don't support idle people. If you agree to these conditions, you are welcome to join us."
Han Yixue thought about it, then nodded and said, "I agree."
After he said that, Yao Ran handed him a bowl of cold noodles and smiled, "Welcome to the team."
Han Yixue took the bowl of cold noodles, lowering his eyes to hide his emotions. He didn't know if he had made the right decision, but he knew that if he didn't do this, his family might die of starvation and thirst.
He held the bowl tightly and said, "Thank you."
Yao Ran, unaware of his thoughts, said, "Since you are now my teammate, your family is my family. Please invite them to have dinner with us."
Hearing this, Han Yixue looked up at Yao Ran in surprise. He had thought she was only providing a meal for him and that he would need to share his portion with his family. Who knew she was generous enough to feed his whole family?
Working for this kind of boss, Han Yixue felt it was worth it!
After being stunned for a moment, Han Yixue nodded hurriedly and said, "Alright."
Yao Ran watched him walk back to his family and saw the Han family members react with surprise and talk among themselves. From their expressions, she could guess what they were discussing.
While Han Yixue was explaining things to his family, Long Yu approached her. He had noticed Han Yixue talking with his girlfriend and had watched until Han Yixue left with a bowl of cold noodles before walking up to her.
Sitting beside Yao Ran, he asked, "What was that man talking to you about?"
Yao Ran pulled him closer, lowered her voice, and said, "A Yu, do you remember the famous craftsman from our previous life?"
Long Yu thought for a moment and asked, "Are you talking about Xue?"n/ô/vel/b//jn dot c//om
Yao Ran nodded, then motioned to Han Yixue with her chin and said, "His name is Han Yixue, and he just showed me his ability to control elements. I think he is the famous Xue."
When Long Yu heard this, he was surprised.
