Rebirth: I Am Super Rich in Apocalypse
Chapter 296: It’s You I Like

Chapter 296: Chapter 296: It’s You I Like

"So, have you found the anomaly?"

To tell the truth, she was a little nervous, because Grandma Ye said that she and space were both anomalies.

So, could the one Song Yi was looking for be her?

"No..."

Song Yi shook his head, "What exactly is an anomaly, I don’t know either.

After arriving in West City, I met you, and you know what happened afterward.

I didn’t expect that what he mentioned was the apocalypse. I was quite surprised when I saw that post online at the time."

Looking at him talk, he didn’t seem to be lying.

Jhiang Yuan let out a soft sigh, this person could still be played with.

"So, what about now? Are you going to continue following your old leader?"

"No..."

The man shook his head, gazing unwaveringly at her.

"I was injured before and am not quite suited for high-intensity work anymore. Now I just want to live quietly.

But it’s not all bad; he transferred me to the rear, so I won’t have to patrol outside anymore."

In this way, it seemed Song Yi had also gained some shelter.

"Going to the rear is good. It’s neither particularly idle nor too exhausting."

The outside was a frozen wasteland; certainly, not a good place to be.

Jhiang Yuan now had a fairly clear understanding that the military personnel here were not the current rulers.

The group that came later was the real power, namely Song Yi’s old leader.

They came here because of their higher rank, so the local forces had to obey unconditionally.

"By the way, what is it that your leader came here to do? It isn’t exactly a good place here now."

Moreover, such an influential person, managing international affairs, why would he be used for trivial matters?

Changming Village definitely was not as tranquil as it seemed on the surface.

"I’m not sure about that yet, but I’ll find out soon after I go there," Song Yi said with confidence, as if he already had a plan in mind.

"By the way, those people at the relief center last time, you know them, don’t you? Are you all in this together?"

Jhiang Yuan had been wanting to ask this question; she had been sidetracked before and forgotten.

"Yeah, I used to lead the team. Remember the man who fired the gun? He was my deputy."

No wonder there had been some tension last time.

And it seemed Song Yi was somewhat evasive.

"So that means West City is actually controlled by the military.

Whether it’s the Survivor Base or the relief center, in the end, it’s all the same group of people behind it."

Having said that, Jhiang Yuan was quite astonished herself, realizing that the capabilities of this group should not be underestimated.

Perhaps there would be even more formidable figures.

If her space power was discovered by others, that would be too dangerous.

No, she’d have to warn her family properly when she got back.

Especially Xiao Nuan, she’s too young.

It’s all too easy for a child to slip up and reveal things inadvertently.

"What are you thinking about?"

Seeing her lost in thought, Song Yi waved his hand in front of her.

"Nothing much, just feeling that everything is getting stranger, dangers lurking everywhere," she replied, and let out a sigh.

"Don’t be afraid, I have..."

Well, Jhiang Yuan looked up, only to meet a pair of serious eyes.

Why did it feel like there was a hint of deep feeling there, the atmosphere suddenly became charged with a subtle romance.

"Song Yi, what are you..."

The other person’s gaze didn’t leave her, staring intently into her eyes.

"Jhiang Yuan, can’t you tell that I like you?"

"Ah?"

She was dumbfounded, and almost fell off the bed without paying attention.

Just now, to show a bit of politeness, she hadn’t sat down properly and was only perched on the edge.

Song Yi reacted quickly and reached out to steady her.

Damn it, this is so embarrassing, really too embarrassing.

She really wanted to find a crack in the ground to crawl into, damn it.

"Um, you..."

He seemed to be looking forward to her answer, staring into her eyes all the while.

Jhiang Yuan unconsciously swallowed, feeling a bit scared; what should she do?

"Song Yi, haven’t you got it wrong? I remember you used to like Mianmian, didn’t you?"

"Where did you get that I liked her from? Don’t falsely accuse me."

This time, it was Jhiang Yuan’s turn to be stunned; this man, how could he be so unpredictable?

"Back then, when we went out to gather supplies, it was nothing personal, but you took her with us, wasn’t that the point?"

By the end of her statement, her voice grew fainter, as if indeed nobody had ever said it and it was all her own speculation.

"No, Jhiang Yuan, it has always been you.

As for bringing her along, I was worried about you—a girl on your own might feel awkward, and since she had messaged me privately,

I thought bringing her would spare you some embarrassment."

After all, back then, you were going out with two guys.

Feeling scared and embarrassed was normal.

"Ah? So, it was like that... Oh my God..."

The situation had gotten so awkward; she had thought Song Yi didn’t care about Mianmian anymore...

Turns out he was interested in her, and she had even hinted several times to Mianmian, how embarrassing.

"What are you thinking about now?"

Song Yi, seeing her silent, grew a bit anxious, with an itching feeling in his heart.

"Well, it’s getting late, I should go back."

"Jhiang Yuan..."

Oh right, there was still an important matter not yet resolved.

"Song Yi, first of all, thank you very much for liking me.

You know I’ve had an unhealthy marriage before.

Given the current situation, I really don’t want to consider this stuff.

You should stop wasting time on me and find someone who can give you a meaningful relationship!"

Jhiang Yuan spoke sincerely; she didn’t want to date or remarry.

The days she spent with Xia Chaoyang were the most miserable days of her early life.

Now, having finally gained freedom, she naturally didn’t want to make the same mistakes.

She also understood that Song Yi was not Xia Chaoyang; he wouldn’t do those disgusting things.

But she wouldn’t waver in her resolve to remain unmarried.

"I know what you’re thinking, so I never told you about it, I always thought... you would realize...

I understand your concerns; don’t put too much pressure on yourself.

In these extraordinary times, all we need is to keep our families safe and to keep surviving.

I didn’t expect anything from you; as long as you’re happy, that’s enough for me..."

Man, this guy, usually so silent, is actually quite good with words.

If she were twenty, she would definitely have been moved by now.

"Jhiang Yuan, promise me not to distance yourself from me because of this.

Let’s interact as we used to, however you’re comfortable, okay?"

His eyes held a plea.

She felt a little embarrassed, but how could things stay the same!

"Okay, I got it; you shouldn’t overthink it either.

We’re not very familiar with this place, and besides, it’s not necessarily safe here.

There’s too much we need to do, and in comparison to survival, love is just a minor thing, wouldn’t you agree?"
