Hearing Liang Shuang's words, Song Ze also felt helpless. He had already clearly rejected Qin Jiajia, but she seemed not to understand human language.

We can't just make him take the blame just because Qin Jiajia likes him. What did he do to deserve this?

Song Ze not only disliked Qin Jiajia, but he was also disgusted by her. This was the first time he had ever hated a girl so much.

Back in the city, Qin Jiajia used to act like a big shot because she was the granddaughter of her grandfather's friend. Whenever he did something to upset Qin Jiajia, she would complain to her grandfather, and he would always punish her out of consideration for their relationship.

Looking at Qin Jiajia, who was staring at him with teary eyes, Song Ze said coldly, "Qin Jiajia, I'll say it one last time: I could never like you. Don't use my name to make things difficult for other girls."

Upon hearing this, Qin Jiajia immediately became anxious and went up to grab Song Ze's hand: "Brother Song Ze, please let me explain. I really didn't push her on purpose. She even hit me so fiercely. I'm still in pain."

Her voice was choked with sobs. She had never been beaten like this before in her life, and she felt truly wronged.

Song Ze nimbly avoided Qin Jiajia's contact and said with annoyance, "You know you pushed her first, so how can you have the nerve to blame her for fighting back?"

Qin Jiajia complained, feeling wronged: "Then you have to help me teach Liang Shuang a lesson. Before I went to the countryside, Grandpa Shen told you to take good care of me."

When Liang Shuang heard Song Ze's merciless words, she almost burst out laughing. She watched the two of them with a look of amusement. Qin Jiajia was such a fool. At this time, she was still threatening Song Ze with Song Ze's grandfather. Wouldn't that just make Song Ze even more annoyed with her? No wonder Song Ze didn't like her.

Song Ze was indeed most annoyed by Qin Jiajia's constant use of her maternal grandfather as an excuse, and his already limited patience was completely exhausted: "Go find your maternal grandfather if he says so. Anyway, I don't know you well, and I can't take care of you."

After saying that, Song Ze went straight out of the courtyard.

The others suddenly remembered that they had to go to work in the afternoon, so they all went back to their rooms to grab their things and hurriedly left.

In less than a minute, Qin Jiajia was left alone in the yard. She stood there and roared helplessly, "Ah~ ah, you guys have gone too far!"

On the other side, Xia Qingqing, now free of debt, slowly began to walk back.

When I got to the place where I had dug for wild vegetables with my younger brother, Gou Dan, I couldn't help but feel an itch in my hands as I looked at the large expanse of lush green vegetables.

"Since we're already here, let's dig up some wild vegetables to take back and eat."

These are all natural wild vegetables. It would be such a waste not to dig them up. Xia Qingqing plans to stock up on more and store them in the system warehouse.

An hour later, Xia Qingqing looked at the huge pile in the system warehouse and nodded in satisfaction.

He sent half of it to Gu Yunshu, and then took another one to take home.

The wild vegetables are so tender right now. Just blanch them in boiling water and make them into a cold dish, and she can eat half a plate by herself.

In the post-apocalyptic world, Gu Yunshu, who was on a mission, sensed the wild vegetables that Xia Qingqing had sent over. Her eyes narrowed with joy, and she was in an extremely good mood.

The people in the group couldn't help but be curious when they saw her so happy. Not to mention that Gu Yunshu usually liked to have a cold face, it was rare to see someone so happy in the apocalypse, where people lived in constant fear of death.

"Captain Gu, what's the good news that makes you so happy? Tell us so we can all share in the joy."

"Yes, Captain, we rarely see you smile. I didn't expect you to look so beautiful when you smile."

Gu Yunshu then realized that she had been so obvious, and said with a slightly restrained expression, "It's nothing, I just thought of something happy."

Hearing her say that, although everyone was still curious, they didn't press her for details. It was clear that she didn't want to tell them, and asking further would only make them lose face.

That evening, after the team returned to the base, Gu Yunshu greeted her teammates and went straight to her residence, eagerly sending a video call invitation to Xia Qingqing.

Xia Qingqing happened to be awake at that moment, and upon seeing the call request on the system panel, she immediately answered it.

Gu Yunshu gave a cool smile: "Qingqing, I received the wild vegetables you sent me and the White Rabbit candy from before. The White Rabbit candy is especially sweet, thank you."

"Sister Yunshu, I'm glad you like it. You're welcome. I sold the fabric you gave me so I could afford the White Rabbit milk candy."

"However, our supply and marketing cooperatives here have purchase limits; each person can only buy one jin (500 grams). Otherwise, I could have bought you a little more."

Gu Yunshu nodded knowingly. She had indeed heard that resources were scarce in the 1970s and things were hard to buy. Qingqing had only managed to buy a pound of sugar and shared half of it with herself, which was already very generous.

Xia Qingqing pouted unhappily: "Ugh, I need coupons to buy everything, it's so annoying."

Looking at her puffed-up cheeks, Gu Yunshu felt a strange urge to pinch them.

"I may not be able to help you with food, but I've collected a lot of daily necessities these past two days. I'll send them to you, see if you can use them."

Gu Yunshu's system warehouse was overflowing. She directly transferred most of the resources in her system warehouse to Xia Qingqing, and the rest was for herself.

It's a pity that the current system warehouse only has 30 cubic meters, which is very inconvenient for storing items. It would be better if it were bigger.

Xia Qingqing could feel the system warehouse instantly filling up halfway. She couldn't hide the surprise on her face and cheered happily, "Sister Yunshu, you're so great, love you love you~".

Gu Yunshu looked at Xia Qingqing with a doting expression as she acted coquettishly towards him: "If you want anything else, just tell me. I can collect more when I'm on a mission."

After hanging up the video call, Xia Qingqing couldn't care less about sleeping. She happily started checking what good things Gu Yunshu had sent her.

"Wow, shower gel, shampoo, soap, toothpaste, toothbrush, towel, sheets, duvet cover, lighter..." Xia Qingqing checked the items in the system warehouse one by one and found that Gu Yunshu had prepared all the daily necessities she could use for herself.

To her greatest surprise, she found a whole box full of sanitary napkins in the corner, including daytime, nighttime, panty liners, and overnight pads.

"Sister Yunshu is simply a fairy, she understands me so well."

Xia Qingqing hasn't had her period this month, but she noticed there are menstrual pads in the room, which require some rough toilet paper to be placed on top when using them.

The thought of her aunt needing to use this product during her period was unacceptable to her.

Gu Yunshu was her lifesaver; that huge box of sanitary napkins would last her for a year or two, and since they were stored in the system warehouse, she didn't have to worry about them expiring.
