Apocalypse: My Sweetie Is Tough but Cute -
Chapter 579 - Chapter 579 Chapter 580 Its Just a Little Girl
Chapter 579: Chapter 580: It’s Just a Little Girl Chapter 579: Chapter 580: It’s Just a Little Girl Being able to bring back some food had always been primarily for his wife, children, and his younger brother-in-law who had just started high school.
Children were now suffering from malnutrition due to the lack of infant formula. He had heard that the black market on this side of the old city had a variety, so he had brought his own brother-in-law, specifically coming here to look around.
During the day, they had encountered Su Shu and Ha Lao San trading medicines, but they hadn’t dared to approach them.
If one were to say that every place has its local bully, then Ha Lao San was certainly the one around here.
Only when Su Shu came out again to look for things did they approach her, offering items they had picked from the supermarket when the Apocalypse first broke out and everyone was looting together.
Su Shu actually had the items they held in their hands, and she hadn’t initially planned to trade.
But what they wanted in exchange were nutritional products for postpartum women. Su Shu looked at them thoughtfully and then agreed to the trade.
Su Shu was someone who rarely pried into others’ secrets.
If they were buying things for a pregnant woman, what about the child?
Asking for the pregnant woman but not for the child had indeed raised a hint of suspicion in Su Shu’s mind at the time.
But since they wanted something she just happened to have and didn’t need at the moment, and their dried vegetables could be preserved for the Tang Family,
thinking this, she nodded.
Now that the trade was finished, they suddenly brought up infant formula.
Su Shu realized she might have been too harsh in her judgment of them before.
She had thought the newly born child was more likely to suffer fate’s disfavor, but it seemed the others might have just been more cautious.
Wang Chao’s mouth was full of large blisters, clearly a result of recent anxiety causing him to overheat.
If the young woman in front of him had supplements for pregnant women, might it mean she could also procure items for infants?
The moment Su Shu nodded, his tears nearly fell.
In a subdued voice, he pleaded, “Miss, my daughter just turned a month old, my wife’s health is poor, and if this continues, she’ll really starve. If you have any, could you reserve some for me? I know it’s pricey. Name your price, what you need in exchange–whatever I have, I’ll give you more, and if not, can you give me a little time? I’ll surely bring it for you.”
For Wang Chao, finding someone willing to trade infant formula in this area was truly not an easy feat.
Even if there were any, it would be snatched away by some powerful people before the trade could even happen.
They would buy it at high prices, and nobody knew to whom they might sell it; it was very expensive.
It was said to be sold to some upper-class individuals, one fresh packet fetching many items in return.
That’s why he didn’t dare to ask openly and could only probe while trading.
Unexpectantly, heaven aids the worthy, and tonight he finally found what he was looking for.
Unfortunately, the more cautious one is, the more likely to encounter mishaps.
Perhaps because Wang Chao was too ecstatic, he couldn’t control his expressions for a moment, which let the vigilant people nearby see.
Wang Chao and his brother-in-law Li Wei had been wandering around the black market for a few days, and quite a few people knew what they wanted to trade.
Infant formula was in high demand, and the hint of its scent caused a crowd to swarm in.
“Yo, big brother Wang, what have you traded for that has made you so happy? Come on, share with us brothers, happiness shared is happiness doubled.”
Su Shu disliked the scent of the man who approached, so she stepped back.
Wang Chao’s expression tensed, and he made no reply.
If these people confirmed he was trading for infant formula, they definitely wouldn’t let him get it.
The leader, turning to Su Shu and sizing her up, paused slightly when his gaze landed on the Tang Knife in her hand.
