Before Li Su could figure out what to do next, Zhao Yingnan spoke. Of course, her tone was not good. “Hey lady, the living environment in the last days is difficult and resources are limited, so it is better to save a little.” She said this to Jiang Xiaoya, who was asking to wash her hands.

Jiang Xiaoya raised her head inexplicably. What did she mean?

Jiang Fang frowned slightly and was about to speak.

Li Su spoke slowly. “Her boyfriend is a water-type power user. Let alone washing her hands, she can even take a bath every day. Her boyfriend didn’t even speak. You are overstepping! Jiang Fang, I remember you were talking about cooperating, right? Shouldn’t these private matters belong to the scope of us cooperating?”

Zhao Yingnan’s face turned pale for a while. Several people behind her frowned in unison.

The corners of Jiang Fang’s mouth rose slightly. “Older sister Li is right.”

Jiang Fang stated his attitude bluntly, which made Zhao Yingnan a little unable to say anything else. She glared at Jiang Fang, then looked away.

A man behind her stepped forward. “Mr. Jiang, we are here to chat with you about the next plan. Please come here.”

Jiang Fang patted Jiang Xiaoya’s head. “I’ll go and be right back.”

Jiang Xiaoya nodded. “Okay, hurry up and come back!”

After Jiang Fang, Zhao Yingnan and others left, Jiang Xiaoya walked over to Li Su and took her arm. “Older sister, do you think that woman likes A-Fang?”

Li Su turned her head in surprise. “It’s not easy to spot this. You actually noticed it!”

Jiang Xiaoya said angrily, “I’m not slow!” Then, she said happily, “However, even if she likes A-Fang, there is no way A-Fang will like her. A-Fang only likes me!”

“Yes, yes, your A-Fang’s favorite is you.” Li Su smiled. “What do you want to eat in the morning? Is sushi and milk okay?”

“That’s fine. I’m going to warm up the milk!” Jiang Xiaoya said with a smile.

Li Su put the rest of the things into the space, and then took out two boxes of sushi from the space. Wang Yao dragged her clothes over. “Mum, I want to eat cake.”

“Okay, but after eating, remember to rinse your mouth!” Li Su said while rubbing Wang Yao’s braid.

“Older sister, I want some too!” Jiang Xiaoya had a sweet tooth. Hearing that there was cake to eat, she couldn’t hold back and jumped over.

“Okay, I’ll give you one too.” Li Su smiled. She went to a cake shop and bought all the small cakes in it. Now there were half of them left.

Li Su gave each of them a piece of black forest, and the two of them sat on the stone. They held the cake and ate it one bite at a time. The group of people not far away stared at them with burning eyes.

Jiang Fang turned his head to see this scene and smiled. How could he forget this? There were still some small cakes in his space.

Looking at Jiang Fang’s reaction, Zhao Yingnan felt a little uncomfortable. “Don’t you think you’ve protected your girlfriend too well, Mr. Jiang? Now is the apocalypse. People’s hearts are sinister and the environment is dangerous, it seems like…”

“Miss Zhao is thinking too much. Xiaoya has the ability to protect herself. Besides, if I can’t even protect my girlfriend, wouldn’t I be too useless?” JIang Fang didn’t like Zhao Yingnan’s tone of voice for some reason.

“Mr. Jiang, I didn’t mean for it to be malicious, it’s just…” Zhao Yingnan explained with a frown.

Jiang Fang turned his head away. “Major Cheng, since we have finished discussing, I’ll go back first. I’ll leave on time in half an hour!”

“Okay, Mr. Jiang walk slowly!” Major Cheng nodded.

After Jiang Fang nodded at him, he strode away.

Major Cheng looked at Zhao Yingnan. “Yingnan, you are too eager. This is unlike you.”

“Uncle Cheng, I just don’t understand why men like that kind of superficial and vulgar woman!” Zhao Yingnan said expressionlessly.

Major Cheng knew that before the apocalypse, Zhao Yingnan had a boyfriend who had been talking about marriage for five years, but he cheated on her with a college student who had a weak personality. Since then, Zhao Yingnan had been particularly disgusted with this kind of woman.

“It’s all good. Don’t worry about it. Go back and get ready. It’s time to go,” Major Cheng said softly.

Zhao Yingnan nodded, took a few steps forward, stopped again, and glanced back. Jiang Fang was eating sushi out of Jiang Xiaoya’s hand. When the two looked at each other, their strong relationship could not be concealed.

But looking at this relationship through Zhao Yingnan’s eyes, he still felt so dazzling! The first time she saw Jiang Fang, he was killing zombies on the street. At that time, she quickly glanced at him while she was passing by. Unexpectedly, she saw him again a few days ago. Zhao Yingnan was moved when she saw how he was able to navigate the zombies with ease. This was a real man!

Even if she knew that Jiang Fang had a girlfriend, Zhao Yingnan didn’t take it to heart. She always felt that a shallow woman like Jiang Xiaoya could not stand by Jiang Fang’s side! She would only drag Jiang Fang down! Only a woman with background, ability, and wisdom like her was worthy to stand beside Jiang Fang and fight side by side with him! They would work together to create an era that belonged to them!

Zhao Yingnan took another look, then turned her head and strode forward.

Li Su just turned around and saw Zhao Yingnan’s look. She stared at Zhao Yingnan’s back thoughtfully for a long time.

When she was about to leave, Jiang Xiaoya took Wang Yao to solve her physiological needs, but Li Su did not follow. Li Su walked to Jiang Fang’s side. “Jiang Fang, pay attention to that woman. There is something wrong with her.”

Jiang Fang was refueling the car, and stopped when he heard her words. “Older sister Li, what do you mean…?” He was not slow and he could naturally feel Zhao Yingnan’s vague admiration for him.

“Don’t underestimate the jealousy of women. There’s nothing wrong with being careful. You don’t want Xiaoya to be hurt, right?” Li Su patted Jiang Fang on the shoulder. “Think about it. I’ll find Xiaoya and the others.”

Jiang Fang refueled, cleaned up, and turned his head to look over. It so happened that Zhao Yingnan was also looking over at him. Their gazes met. Zhao Yingnan smiled at him. The smile was pure and easy. No matter how Jiang Fang looked at her, she didn’t look like someone who would do that. But older sister Li’s words were never aimless.

As he was thinking about it, Li Su, Jiang Xiaoya, and Wang Yao came back with smiles. “A-Fang, let’s go!”

As soon as Jiang Fang saw Jiang Xiaoya, he had nothing on his mind. He immediately went over to meet Jiang Xiaoya and held Jiang Xiaoya’s hand. “Okay, we should go.”

“I want to drink iced black tea! The one with real ice!” Jiang Xiaoya said coquettishly, holding Jiang Fang’s hand.

Jiang Fang said helplessly, “You can only drink a little.”

“Great!” Jiang Xiaoya happily held Jiang Fang’s face and kissed it. Jiang Fang suddenly laughed.

Over there, Wang Yao also took Li Su’s hand and grabbed Jiang Fang’s pants. “Uncle, I want to drink an iced drink too.”

Jiang Fang smiled and hugged Wang Yao, tugging on her pigtail. “What did you call me? Say it again?”

Wang Yao softly called again, “Uncle, I want to drink too.”

Jiang Fang looked at Jiang Xiaoya and smiled ambiguously. Jiang Xiaoya blushed and reached out to touch Wang Yao. “Yaoyao is good. I will share it with you later.”

“And my mother! And uncle!” Wang Yao said seriously.

“Okay! Mum and uncle too.” Jiang Xiaoya was a little embarrassed.

Jiang Fang smiled and couldn’t close his mouth. Little Wang Yao was very good. Uncle liked it!

Li Su secretly applauded. Dear daughter, you are the best!

They laughed and got into the car. This scene was observed by Zhao Yingnan, and she thought it was very dazzling.

Major Cheng glanced at Zhao Yingnan with worry and sighed slightly. He hoped that this mission would end smoothly and they could return to the base as soon as possible!

In the car, Jiang Fang really took a bottle of iced black tea from the space. He used his ability and a thin layer of ice formed in the bottle. He then handed it to Jiang Xiaoya.

Jiang Xiaoya was a little disappointed. “Ah? So little ice? Can you add a little more?”

Although Jiang Fang favoured her, he still took a stand on health-related issues with a firm attitude. “It’s not good for you!”

Jiang Xiaoya pouted. “You’re so stingy!” Then, she unscrewed the cap, took a sip, turned around, and handed it to Li Su. “Older sister, Yaoyao, drink a little!”

Li Su took the drink, poured out a little bit, and then handed it back. “You should also drink less.”

Jiang Fang glanced at Jiang Xiaoya. “Look, even older sister said so.”

The difference between older sister Li and older sister was not just a single word! Li Su thought to herself, then lowered her head and said to Wang Yao, “You also drink less. It’s not good for your health.”

Wang Yao nodded, holding the cup. “Mum, drink first.”

Li Su took a sip. Wang Yao just held the cup and drank it in small sips.

Jiang Xiaoya also fed Jiang Fang a few sips. Jiang Fang was not interested in this sweet drink, but he was afraid that Jiang Xiaoya would drink too much, so he reluctantly took a few sips.

“By the way, A-Fang, why should we cooperate with those people?” Jiang Xiaoya asked.

“It’s not a long-term cooperation. It’s just for now. We will help them collect supplies and they will provide us with the latest information,” Jiang Fang said while driving. In fact, he originally planned to cooperate for a long time, but now, it was better to avoid suspicion.

“That’s good. Remember, don’t mess with flowers, and don’t show mercy everywhere. If you don’t, then I will also like others,” Jiang Xiaoya said.

Jiang Fang laughed, stretched out a hand to grab Jiang Xiaoya’s hand, and said seriously, “There is no one else. Only you! You are not allowed to like anyone else.”

Jiang Xiaoya looked at Jiang Fang. “A-Fang, don’t leave me.” Her voice was a little choked up.

Jiang Fang felt relieved and hugged Jiang Xiaoya. “I won’t leave you, never!”

Li Su looked at the young couple from the back seat and they acted like no one else was around. She was very speechless. She looked down to see Wang Yao, who was staring at the two people leaning against each other in front of her. She noticed that Li Su was looking at her. Just as Wang Yao was about to speak, Li Su quickly covered her mouth lightly. She took out the tablet, plugged in the headphones, and adjusted the volume.

Wang Yao’s attention was attracted by the cartoon. Li Su closed her eyes and fell asleep.

Jiang Xiaoya was feeling sentimental. She suddenly saw Li Su in the rearview mirror with her eyes closed and dozing off. It was only then did she realise that there were two other people in the car. Wasn’t her behaviour seen by those two? It was over. Her character as an independent beautiful girl had collapsed!
