Chapter 98 Suspected by Song Yi

Chapter 98: Chapter 98 Suspected by Song Yi

Nonsense, if Jhiang Yuan didn’t trust him, she would have run off long ago.

Would she dare to go to the clothing wholesale city by herself?

Song Yi looked at her as if he was very serious.

"Once I got there, it was already getting late, and I thought that even if I returned during the day, it might not be very safe.

So, I went to the flower market instead and took all the liquefied gas with me."

"Oh, I see, no wonder I didn’t see anyone when I went to find you."

Jhiang Yuan put on an expression of sudden realization, trying to dispel Song Yi’s doubts.

But who was she dealing with here, someone who would let her off the hook so easily!

"Then why didn’t you come back in time?"

"Visibility was too low at night, and I couldn’t see clearly. Being alone, I was quite scared.

I took a wrong turn and ended up in the old city’s wholesale market area.

I had been there before and knew there was a food court on the top floor, so I thought I’d try my luck there.

Who would have known there were actually people there? Fortunately, they were noisy and their flashlights were swinging around.

Being alone and worried I couldn’t handle it, I quietly left."

She spoke with utter sincerity; this man was testing her, and she could not afford to show any weakness.

In the apocalypse, all alliances were not worth mentioning.

Without mutual interests, there would be no reason for anyone to stick together, and they were no exception.

If you get too emotionally involved, you lose.

"You did the right thing, preserving yourself is the most important thing."

When Song Yi said this, was he expressing his concern for her?

Jhiang Yuan also found it strange and couldn’t help but ask, "You guys didn’t encounter any danger when you went out, did you?"

"There wasn’t any danger, but we found another small supermarket."

What?

Now it was her turn to be surprised, her eyes widened. No wonder it took them so long to come back, so that was it!

That was the stuff from three kayaks earlier. If they had come back once before, then they indeed had a lot of stuff.

That amount far exceeded what they had left before. She had only been focused on moving stuff earlier and hadn’t thought about this.

"Lucky you."

Song Yi packed away two kayaks, together with her two, making four in total.

He took three and let Jhiang Yuan hold one on her own.

"Do you also have a kayak with a motor?"

Here it comes, the inevitable can’t be avoided.

"Yeah, those things were bought for fun in the past, I don’t really understand them."

Her face didn’t blush, her heart didn’t race, she deliberately pretended to be calm.

After all, as long as she wasn’t embarrassed, the embarrassment fell on someone else.

"Let’s talk about it upstairs!"

"Sure."

Jhiang Yuan turned around and took the lead going upstairs.

Behind her, a cold smile crept up on Song Yi’s lips as he shook his head.

Once the seed of suspicion is planted, no matter what you do afterwards, there will always be problems.

Jhiang Yuan felt that this self-rescue squad probably couldn’t last much longer.

But she was not at a loss; she had so many supplies now, which were completely sufficient, and the space she had created was pretty good.

With such strong support, there was nothing to fear.

When they reached the twentieth floor, it was as packed and crammed as ever, just like before they had started cleaning up.

"Brother Song, Sister Yuan, come in quick."

There was a sense of vigilance in Zhang Kaiyang’s voice.

Jhiang Yuan glanced at the spot his eyes had flicked over; it was the neighboring room 2001.

Her heart skipped a beat, feeling an ominous premonition.

"What happened?"

Zhang Kaiyang closed the door and took another couple of looks before he came over.

"Just now, while we were moving things, the person next door opened their door. I don’t know what they wanted to do, but as soon as they saw me and Uncle, they immediately retreated."

"Yeah, it felt really weird."

Jhiang Xingzhi also chimed in, saying that under normal circumstances, they would definitely come over and ask, yet they had avoided them as if they were a flood or a savage beast—definitely abnormal behavior.

"I know what’s going on."

With that statement, all eyes turned toward her.

Jhiang Yuan then shared how she had sold stuff to room 2001 and of course, she did not omit a word of her warning.

Seeing everyone fall silent, Ye Mianmian couldn’t hold back, "In this situation, Sister Yuan had no choice.

They live right next door, so it’s only natural they would notice us moving things back and forth so frequently.

Besides, I think it’s not just them; there are probably many others who have seen us, they’re just too scared to come out."

Her point was rational, and everyone inside knew it too.

Yet having it laid out openly made it something everyone dreaded.

"Moreover, they are right next door; if we do nothing, that will actually be dangerous."

Song Yi sighed softly, his voice low, but Jhiang Yuan still heard him.

"Yeah, giving them some supplies would be good, to keep things stable for now. In a desperate situation, you two will be the first to suffer."

With that, his gaze swept over Zhang Kaiyang and Ye Mianmian.

They both were fully aware of the situation and couldn’t help feeling anxious.

"But we must also stay alert. Now is not like before. If there’s any unusual movement next door, you know what you should do!"

His tone was incontrovertible, and the answer clear, yet everyone broke out in a cold sweat.

Even Jhiang Yuan, who had been in physical altercations before, felt a sense of fear.

"Brother Song, don’t worry, I know what to do."

"Right, leave it to me and Zhang Kaiyang, we won’t start trouble, but we’re not afraid of it either.

His reaction just now proved he’s scared. Let’s not get too tense, scaring ourselves over nothing."

After leaving the service area, Ye Mianmian’s worldview had changed.

She held little expectation for the world she used to live in.

"Alright, alright, it’s not a big deal. We just need to be more cautious. Let’s hurry up and organize things; there’s no room even to step in here."

Jhiang Xingzhi tried to break the tension with a laugh, especially pleased to see Ye Mianmian come to Jhiang Yuan’s defense earlier.

Now that there was no incident, he didn’t want everyone to borrow trouble unnecessarily.

"Yes, let’s organize."

Because of Jhiang Xingzhi’s presence, everyone felt it wasn’t right and insisted on dividing the supplies into five portions to give him one.

Jhiang Yuan thought it was unnecessary; since they were together, roughly dividing it would suffice, especially since her share wasn’t small.

However, these people were grateful.

In the bags they divided, they always put a few extra small items for her.

They let Jhiang Xingzhi take some up first, fearing that her dad couldn’t keep an eye on it all, given his age.

With four people working, the task was much faster; Ye Mianmian and Zhang Kaiyang’s shares were directly placed in their own rooms.

Because there were so many, the entranceway was also piled up, and the leftovers that couldn’t make a full fourth share were given to Song Yi and Jhiang Yuan.

They were the ones who had brought out the kayak and contributed the manpower of Jhiang Xingzhi.

Jhiang Yuan didn’t refuse; to be polite would seem insincere.

"These supplies are enough for some time now. Recently, there’s nothing important, so let’s not go out."

After Song Yi finished speaking, the other three nodded in agreement.
