Chapter 393: Chapter 393: Worshiping Xiao Ling

Fan Qing nodded and immediately agreed.

"I understand, Sister Yuan, it was my oversight.

During dinner, I’ll speak with Kaiyang."

"Okay..."

Jhiang Yuan didn’t know how they communicated, what she needed to do was ask Squad Leader Cheng for leave.

"You want to go to Half Moon Lake?"

"Yes, it’s where we came from before.

Jingjing’s mom passed away there; we want to pay our respects."

Jhiang Yuan explained her reason, but she didn’t mention the matter about the green grass tips.

Squad Leader Cheng didn’t know so many details; he just pondered whether their departure would affect work.

"It’s possible, but you all work in the dining area.

So many people leaving at once, I’m worried it might delay everyone’s mealtime."

Jhiang Yuan had already considered this problem, so it wouldn’t be an issue.

"It’s like this, Squad Leader Cheng, we will go to work tomorrow morning. After lunch, we’ll head out.

Swap with the people on the morning shift; it won’t affect anything."

Squad Leader Cheng heard this and smiled, nodding.

"Alright, since you all have planned it well, then go ahead, just don’t let it interfere with work.

However, do pay attention to safety; you never know when there might be danger outside."

"Got it, I understand."

Jhiang Yuan was also very happy, not expecting it to be resolved so easily.

"Um, Jhiang Yuan, I have something I want to ask you."

Seeing her hesitate, she became curious.

Such a poised and robust girl, yet suddenly displaying such a shy moment.

"What is it, Squad Leader Cheng, please tell me."

"Well, I see you are close to Song Yi; does he have a girlfriend?"

Huh?

She seems interested in Song Yi.

She felt a bit awkward, as she couldn’t just tell her that he likes her.

"It seems he doesn’t have one, but I’m not too certain."

Hearing this, Squad Leader Cheng seemed somewhat disappointed.

Yet, she quickly regained her usual demeanor and continued talking to her.

"Alright, I see you two are often together, and you came here together.

I thought you would know, oh well!"

Jhiang Yuan gave a wry smile, not knowing what to say.

Hearing someone else liked Song Yi, why did she feel somewhat forlorn?

But, she wasn’t seeking a relationship, so naturally, she couldn’t interfere with someone else’s normal life.

After making a firm decision quietly, she stopped dwelling on it.

"By the way, Jhiang Yuan, do you know his hobbies or what food he likes?"

Speaking of this, she really didn’t know and could only shake her head.

Although she had spent a considerable amount of time with Song Yi, she truly hadn’t paid attention to his likes; he was not picky and rarely expressed his preferences.

"Okay then, I’ll ask around later."

Although Squad Leader Cheng was disappointed, her spirits were high, and she didn’t say much.

Jhiang Yuan got the approval and began planning.

Jingjing was definitely going; the others were Fan Qing and Ye Mianmian.

Qin Yue would stay here since the base was safe.

Xiao Nuan was also coming along, as her mother didn’t have the energy to take care of her all by herself.

That evening, Fan Qing brought news.

Zhang Kaiyang and Song Yi were both going, and the plane could carry them.

They were departing at two o’clock in the afternoon; Zhang Kaiyang was quite excited.

"It feels like a long time since we’ve moved together; suddenly, I kind of miss our old life."

Fan Qing slapped him lightly, slightly displeased, "Life is so stable now, don’t talk nonsense."

"Yes, yes, yes. Isn’t it just reminiscing about the days when we were all together in the past?"

Zhang Kaiyang wasn’t annoyed at all, rather, he was grinning.

"We are still together now, see each other every day, what’s not good about that?"

"What’s not good is that we can’t live together anymore, don’t you know that?"

Boy, that was blunt, the other people didn’t dare to join in the conversation.

Fan Qing felt embarrassed and hit him twice more.

It seemed to Jhiang Yuan that it was just playful bickering with no real harm.

Half Moon Lake was not far away. Because the helicopter was quite large, it was parked in the village below.

This time, another person came along, Comrade Zhang Tiezhu.

Having disembarked from the plane, there was not much change from the time they left.

Because it was a plain, it looked very spacious.

It was hard to imagine that just a month ago, this was a bustling village.

They had even slept and eaten here.

Jhiang Yuan sighed deeply, holding one child by the hand.

Jingjing knew this was a visit to see her mom, but she didn’t dare to cry.

She feared everyone would find her troublesome and dislike her.

The exact location was unfindable; they could only search roughly according to memory.

Ye Mianmian brought out the plastic bag she carried and laid out two steamed buns.

There really wasn’t anything else; these had been saved from their own food supplies.

"Jingjing, kowtow to your mom."

"Okay..."

The little girl obediently knelt down, and Xiao Nuan, seeing this, followed her sister’s lead and knelt behind.

Jhiang Yuan did not stop her, as she and Xiao Ling had a master-apprentice relationship.

This bowing was fitting.

"Mom, I miss you so much.

You don’t need to worry, everyone is very kind to me. I now live with Aunt Jhiang Yuan and Sister Xiao Nuan.

We have food to eat, and beds to sleep in, Uncle Song even gives us eggs to eat.

Mom, are you cold down there, have you found dad?"

...

The little girl still rambled on, and when Jhiang Yuan heard "are you cold down there", she couldn’t hold back her emotions anymore.

She had always noticed the child’s cautiousness.

Being able to come and see Xiao Ling, she was naturally happy.

She had never been away from her mother before, and now speaking like this, sensible to the point it brought tears...

Ye Mianmian and Fan Qing also had tears welling up in their eyes; both were kind people.

Living in such an apocalypse, they were out of luck.

Jhiang Yuan steadied her emotions and went over to lift the child up.

It was quite cold that day, and kneeling for a long time was hard on the knees.

"Mom, I am going back now, but I will definitely come to see you frequently.

You have to be fine, Aunt Jhiang Yuan says, there is food to eat below, no cold, and nothing to be worried about, you’ve gone to enjoy blessings.

Jingjing is very happy, Jingjing hopes mom is doing well too.

You must wait for me, and dad too, When I grow up, when I get old, I will come to find you.

Then, our family of three will still be together.

Mom, you must not forget!"

The child hadn’t cried until the very end when she started to sob softly.

"Jingjing, don’t cry, good girl."

Jhiang Yuan, unable to bear it, took her into her arms.

Xiao Nuan also came over, gently patting her back to silently comfort her.

"Aunt Jhiang Yuan, why doesn’t mom answer me, she and dad will wait for me, right?"
