Chapter 291 Braised Pork

Chapter 291: Chapter 291 Braised Pork

He calmly retracted his hand and then took out a wet wipe to clean himself.

Wow, is this the so-called profiteer’s efficiency?

"Take her to the doctor!"

"Yes!"

Upon receiving the order, those two people dragged Sister Zuo away.

They didn’t even bother to put clothes on her, how appalling.

The man turned and looked at Sister Ying.

"Next time you encounter someone like this, just take care of it yourself..."

"Okay..."

Sister Ying responded indifferently, while the others shuddered in fear.

The way they treated people so brutally seemed like it was just routine for them.

Does that mean such things have happened before, how terrifying!

"What are you looking at, get back to work..."

One of the Sister Zuo’s companions, nearly peeing his pants out of fear, immediately got up and hurriedly started planting sweet potato slips.

Jhiang Yuan didn’t dare to look at the man either, she pulled the other two quickly back to work.

The man watched for a while, exchanged a few words with Sister Ying, and then took his leave.

"My goodness, that scared the life out of me, thank goodness I’m wearing makeup."

Ye Mianmian muttered softly, and Fan Qing heard her; she had also applied makeup today.

She had thought it to be an unnecessary precaution, now that they were at the Survivor Base.

It was supposed to be just like the civilized world, but Zhang Kaiyang insistent she disguise herself.

She was a little upset at first, thinking he was being jealous.

Now, however, she was very grateful to him.

"Shh, don’t talk, just work!"

At her word, they both fell silent.

It was with great relief that they finally reached the end of the workday, and the people in the greenhouse couldn’t wait to leave.

In fact, a few of them even ran out.

Jhiang Yuan came over with a thermos of warm water and handed it to Fan Qing and Ye Mianmian.

The three of them were indeed quite troubled; killing wasn’t what scared them, but this kind of torture was truly hair-raising.

"Sister Yuan, this place is really terrifying. I think it’s even worse than the relief center.

At least the people you trust there wouldn’t treat you like this."

Jhiang Yuan sighed, there might not be many people around, but they still had to be careful.

"Qingqing, do you know what ’shen du’ means?"

"Of course, it means being cautious about one’s words and actions even when alone, I..."

Midsentence, she suddenly covered her own mouth.

"Sister Yuan, I understand, it’s just that I’m a bit scared."

Jhiang Yuan sighed again; she was scared too. Although they could maintain a normal life here...

they were still at the mercy of others.

Now, their family members were separated during the day, occupying different places.

If a real problem were to arise, they couldn’t all enter the safe space together.

But in this situation, there wasn’t much they could do to change anything.

If it really became unbearable, then leaving this place would be the only option.

Ye Mianmian was silent, now fully aware of the specifics of this place.

Thunderous methods, without a doubt—when even minor characters were this ruthless, what more the higher-ups?

In the days to come, they would have to be even more careful.

Ah, it’s so difficult!

After returning the thermos, the three of them headed to the dining hall together.

Zhang Kaiyang, as a patient, could enjoy free meals.

But he wasn’t located in the same area as them; he ate at the restaurant they had visited upon their arrival.

There was also an even more upscale restaurant nearby, which they had never been to, and naturally, weren’t qualified to visit.

She imagined that place probably served stir-fried dishes or the like, certainly different from what was offered here.

Fan Qing found it all too bothersome and chose to buy food here instead; a meal cost only one yuan, not too expensive.

After getting their meals, they returned to eat.

Very few people are coming over now, most of them are from the greenhouse side.

Jhiang Yuan bought two extra servings of rice so that there would be no need to prepare staples when going back.

At home, Qin Yue had made her two cushions, perfectly square ones.

"Take this to the greenhouse, so if you get a chance to rest, you’ll have somewhere to sit.

As a girl, you must be careful not to sit directly on the ground; it’s too damp there.

This one is for your dad, and I’ll make a few more tomorrow."

Jhiang Yuan interrupted Qin Yue’s planning and briefly described what happened today.

"Mom, here’s what I’m thinking, why don’t you go over and start working with them the day after tomorrow?

Right now, we can’t figure out what their routine is over there.

It’s better not to be too exceptional, don’t you think?"

Qin Yue, too, felt goosebumps and quickly agreed.

"Okay, my girl, I can go over tomorrow as well."

"Let’s stick to the day after tomorrow; stay one more day tomorrow."

As the two of them talked, Jhiang Xingzhi also came back.

He too brought back his meal to eat, but they were still planning to enter the space.

To have a good feast, because they had staples, it wasn’t necessary to fuss too much.

Mom had made fried hairtail fish, garlic Pak Choi, cucumber salad, and also a dish of tomatoes with sugar.

The food delivered from the dining hall was hot and sour cabbage; it tasted okay, just a bit spicy for Xiao Nuan to eat.

They also couldn’t afford to leave any leftovers, or otherwise, it might give them away.

By eight o’clock in the evening, Song Yi came back and knocked on the door.

Jhiang Yuan had just finished tidying up and was about to look for him.

"You’re just getting back now?"

"Mhm, look..."

As he spoke, he handed over the lunchbox he was carrying as if showing off a treasure.

"What’s this?"

"Open it and see..."

Jhiang Yuan was somewhat puzzled and he was being mysterious about it.

"Braised pork? Where did you get this?"

"Never mind where it came from, you guys hurry up and eat. Come find me afterward..."

There were old people and children in her home, so it wasn’t convenient to talk.

"You keep it for yourself, we’ve already eaten."

"I’ve eaten too, this is just for you guys, eat it while it’s hot!"

Having said that, he didn’t wait for a response and went out, carefully closing the door behind him.

Jhiang Yuan, feeling helpless, watched her family eye the lunchbox of braised pork and decided not to eat it in the end.

However, they did empty the lunchbox, washed it, and prepared it to be sent back.

It was also a good opportunity for her to discuss today’s events with Song Yi.

"That was quick, was it good?"

"Mhm, the lunchbox..."

She said as she placed it on the table next to them.

Then, Song Yi handed her a piece of White Rabbit Creamy Candy.

He was treating her like a child, but Jhiang Yuan didn’t reject it.

"Song Yi, something happened today..."

After she recounted the entire incident to him, Jhiang Yuan still felt heavy-hearted.

"Were you guys affected at all?"

"No, none of us said anything or stepped forward."

Song Yi breathed a sigh of relief, his tense brows relaxing.

"That’s good, Jhiang Yuan, don’t overthink it.

Listen to me, keep a low profile. I think this place is stayable.

And I believe that the situation will improve a lot later on.

It’s just that, right now, there are some things I still haven’t figured out. Give me some time, okay?"

What exactly was going on? She was so curious, but she didn’t know how to ask.

An alarm suddenly sounded outside, and both of them hurriedly looked out.

"Oh no, something’s happened..."
