Chapter 301 – Raising A Child In An Apocalypse (part 10)

9 min read2,135 words

Major Cheng and Zhao Yingnan’s trip was mainly to collect supplies. There were fifteen space ability users in their team. After the apocalypse began, they quickly established a scientific research institute to study how to quickly improve the level of ability users. These fifteen space ability users were the results of the research of the scientific research institute. Each of them had more than fifty square meters in their space.

What they exchanged with Jiang Fang was how to quickly increase the level of an ability user.

In fact, Jiang Fang himself didn’t need this. Perhaps it was because of his space that his level increased quickly. However, Xiaoya and Li Su needed it.

But after talking with Zhao Yingnan and others, Jiang Xin had some doubts about Li Su. He heard from Zhao Yingnan that the current highest space ability user only had a space of about 60 square meters. Although he did not know how big Li Su’s space was, he was certain that the area of Li Su’s space had not changed since he had met her.

Could it be that her space was the same as his own? Was it an Immortal Retreat?

It couldn’t be!

Through Jiang Fang’s observation, Li Su’s space seemed to really just be a space for storing items. Moreover, Li Su’s behaviour was no different from that of an ordinary person, except that she had a little more strength.

The most important thing was that she had no malice towards him and Xiaoya. She even saved Xiaoya. Just for this, as long as Li Su didn’t hurt Xiaoya, he would treat her as his own. After all, in the apocalypse, it was not easy for a single mother with a child. Moreover, Xiaoya also liked the mother and daughter. With their company, Xiaoya was also a lot happier.

Jiang Fang glanced at Li Su in the rearview mirror, looked away, and focussed on driving.

Jiang Xiaoya lay on the seat, “Older sis, older sis!”

Li Su opened her eyes. “What’s wrong?”

“It’s so boring, older sis. Let’s talk!” Jiang Xiaoya tried to forget her embarrassment just now and said those words coquettishly.

“Why don’t you come over and watch dramas with me? What do you want to watch?” Li Su thought for a while, then took out a tablet from the space that had a lot of TV dramas downloaded in it.

“It doesn’t matter. You can pick anything.” Jiang Xiaoya carefully turned to the back seat, sat down beside Li Su, held Li Su’s hand, and rested her head on Li Su’s shoulder.

“Would you like to watch this?” Li Su asked after picking a TV series that was popular before the apocalypse.

Jiang Xiaoya nodded. She didn’t intend to watch TV, but just to dispel her embarrassment just now and to pass the time.

Li Su put the tablet on the stand and freed her hands. She thought about watching TV dramas without snacks, and then fished out a few bags of melon seeds and plums from her space.

Jiang Xiaoya smiled. “It feels like going on a spring outing.” Then, she peeled a plum, leaned over, and stuffed it into Jiang Fang’s mouth. “I’ll give you one to wake you up.”

Jiang Fang pursed his lips and smiled. Suddenly, he braked. Jiang Xiaoya was caught off guard and fell forward. Jiang Fang quickly hugged her.

“What’s wrong?” Jiang Xiaoya rubbed her waist.

“The bridge in front is broken!” Jiang Fang checked Jiang Xiaoya’s injuries. He frowned when he saw the bruise on her waist.

“I’m fine. Just get out of the car and take a look!” Jiang Xiaoya said while pushing Jiang Fang.

Because Wang Yao was sitting in the safety seat, she didn’t suffer any serious injuries, but she was a little dazed at this moment. Li Su inspected Wang Yao and was relieved. She turned her head when she heard that Jiang Xiaoya was injured. She then quickly found safflower oil in her space. “Okay, I will take care of Xiaoya, You can go out and have a look!”

Jiang Fang was relieved to get out of the car.

The bridge was broken in the middle and they couldn’t drive the car over it.

Zhao Yingnan walked to Jiang Fang’s side and frowned when she saw this scene.

“Is there another way?” Jiang Fang asked.

“Yes, but we have to go around 70-80 kilometers. Moreover, after the apocalypse, there have been earthquakes in many places, so the mountains and rivers have changed. I don’t know if we can still go that way. However, we have to give it a try,” Zhao Yingnan said in front of Major Cheng.

“Is there a map?” Jiang Fang asked.

The map was in Major Cheng’s hands, but Zhao Yingnan reached out and took it. Instead of handing it to Jiang Fang, she opened it herself. In this case, Jiang Fang wanted to look at the map, so he could only go over and look at it.

Jiang Fang glanced at her. Instead of leaning over, he turned around and went into the car. When he came back, he took out a mobile phone and opened the map.

Zhao Yingnan’s expression darkened, and she argued strongly. “The map on your phone has been around for a long time, and it has not been updated in a long time. I’m afraid it is…”

“Could it be that the map in your hands was updated after the apocalypse?” Jiang Fang looked down at the map.

How would that be possible? After the apocalypse began, the world was in chaos. Who had the martial arts and ability to update the map again? Zhao Yingnan’s face was ugly. She just wanted to get closer to Jiang Fang.

Major Cheng didn’t expect Jiang Fang to not give her any face, so he quickly pretended to check the broken bridge and stepped aside.

The other moved away when they saw Zhao Yingnan’s embarrassment.

But Zhao Yingnan felt very uncomfortable. She didn’t understand how Jiang Fang’s attitude towards her did a complete 180. Before that, he still respected her and was very gentle. Could it be that the woman instigated this change?

That slut! That slut knew that she couldn’t win, so she did this behind her back!

“Jiang Fang, I think you may have misunderstood me?” Zhao Yingnan took a few steps forward and walked to Jiang Fang’s side.

Jiang Fang was studying the map and ignored her.

“I admit, I have some good feelings towards you, but it is just a good impression of you. I don’t think there is anything wrong with it! Isn’t it normal for a good man like you to have admirers? How many can she stop?” Zhao Yingnan was still talking.

Jiang Fang nodded and said, “Major Cheng, come and take a look at this. I think we can try to take this road, which is relatively safe. If it doesn’t work, let’s go from here to here. What do you think?” Jiang Fang enlarged the map and pointed at it, showing Major Cheng.

Major Cheng took a closer look. “I think it’s okay, so let’s do it!”

“Okay, then we will choose this route and go!” Jiang Fang put away his mobile phone, turned around and returned to his car without looking at Zhao Yingnan.

Major Cheng was a little embarrassed. He glanced at Zhao Yingnan, who was blushing next to him. “Yingnan, I think the road that Jiang Fang said is safer. Let’s get in the car and start!”

Then, he walked forward awkwardly.

Zhao Yingnan, who was so angry that she was about to start smoking, stood there alone. Finally, she walked forward stiffly.

When passing by Jiang Fang’s car, she glared fiercely at Jiang Xiaoya, who was opening the window to look at the scenery.

Jiang Xiaoya was clueless and innocent. “What’s wrong with her? Why is she staring at me like that?!” Just now, older sister Li rubbed the medicine on for her. She was afraid that it would go out, so the windows were closed. She didn’t know what was going on outside!

As early as when Zhao Yingnan was staring at Jiang Xiaoya, Jiang Fang looked back, which made Zhao Yingnan feel hurt again. Hearing Jiang Xiaoya’s words at this time, he gently touched Jiang Xiaoya’s hair, “It’s okay. Maybe her period is coming soon, so she’s a little grumpy.”

Jiang Xiaoya looked like she had a realisation. “So that’s how it is. Hey, do you think she brought some supplies? Do you want to lend her a bag? I feel a bit reluctant, but she is a woman, so it is good to help a little bit! Older sister, what do you think?”

Li Su probably guessed what happened just now. At this time, it was so hard to hold back a smile. Hearing Jiang Xiaoya asking her, she quickly smiled and said, “If she comes over and wants to borrow it, then of course she can borrow it. But if she doesn’t speak up, then it is better to act like nothing happened! Maybe she is already prepared!”

“Okay!” Jiang Xiaoya nodded.

Zhao Yingnan didn’t go far at this time. She happened to hear the conversation between Jiang Fang and Jiang Xiaoya, and she was shaking with anger!

“Yingnan, get in the car!” Major Cheng said. He stuck half of his head out of the car window.

Zhao Yingnan held back her anger, opened the door, and sat. But her clenched fists revealed how angry she was.

Major Cheng cleared his throat. “Yingnan, this is an urgent task. We are still waiting at the base.”

This was to remind Zhao Yingnan not to be distracted and make wrong decisions. But Major Cheng forgot that no matter how calm and steady Zhao Yingnan usually behaved, she was a woman. Women were especially easy to be influenced by emotions, especially when they were jealous.

After walking along the new route for a while, they encountered a few scattered zombies on the road. They should be former farmers working in the nearby fields. These zombies had little combat power and were quickly wiped out.

Other than that, everything went smoothly.

But Jiang Fang didn’t dare to take them lightly. Li Su observed the surrounding environment and frowned. “Yaoyao, don’t look at the tablet. Mum will change your clothes for you and you may have to get off and walk later. Xiaoya, you should also change into long pants and a long-sleeved shirt.”

Jiang Xiaoya nodded without asking why. She could also see that they had entered the forest and the road was getting narrower and narrower. The road might disappear at any time, so she may need to abandon the car and walk. There were many mosquitoes in the mountains and forests. She didn’t know if this would be the case during the apocalypse, but it was better to be careful.

The car slowly stopped. “I can’t drive in. We have to get out,” Jiang Fang said.

“Okay, I’ll pack up my things, but what should I do with this car? I can’t put it in the space!” Li Su said. This car’s performance was really good and she was really reluctant to lose the car like this.

“I’ll take advantage of the upcoming confusion, then put it in my space.” Jiang Fang was also very reluctant to leave this car. This Land Rover was his first car and it was of great significance.

“Okay!” Li Su got out of the car, and with the help of Jiang Xiaoya, carried Wang Yao on her back. She then pretended to put the car into her space.

When Zhao Yingnan saw this, she walked over with a displeased face. “Isn’t this bad? There is limited space, so if you put a car, how can you put other things in later? These things are just things. If you lose them, then you only lose the item.”

Jiang Fang frowned. “Miss Zhao, please clarify. We are just in a cooperative relationship, not a relationship between superiors and subordinates. We just need to complete what we agreed on with Major Cheng. As for how our space is arranged, this has nothing to do with you! ”

Zhao Yingnan didn’t expect Jiang Fang to be so direct. Her face turned pale for a while, and in the end, Major Cheng called her away under the pretext of discussing matters.

Zhao Yingnan couldn’t help but glance back. Jiang Fang was meticulously buttoning Jiang Xiaoya’s sleeves, and Jiang Xiaoya was enjoying Jiang Fang’s service.

Slut! Zhao Yingnan turned her head and looked at the dense and deep forest, with a hint of cruelty flashing in her eyes.
