In her previous life, she was a full-time wife to a CEO, but was tragically robbed of his love by an internet influencer. After the apocalypse descended, she was left to wander the streets.
F...
It wasn't until she heard Li Jin push open the door that Lin Mengru snapped out of her rage at Ye Ning.
"Mengru, my darling, what are you doing?" Li Jin saw Lin Mengru standing in front of the desk as soon as he entered the room.
However, in his mind, what bad intentions could a little woman have? She was just curious.
"Brother Li, you're back!" Lin Mengru's expression instantly changed, her face full of shyness and joy.
"What's wrong, baby? What are you looking at?" Li Jin moved closer to her and embraced her tightly.
"Nothing! I just saw a folder on your desk and was a little curious!" Lin Mengru leaned coquettishly in front of Li Jin, of course she couldn't let Li Jin see her distorted face from just now.
"Is this important information? Can't I look at it?" Lin Mengru asked, feigning indifference.
"Uh! Well, I guess so!" Li Jin said absentmindedly, his hands wandering restlessly. His mind was completely on the beauty in his arms, and he had no time to think about anything else.
"Ugh! You're so annoying!" Lin Mengru said coquettishly, pushing Li Jin's hand away.
"Why is this information so important? Tell me!" Lin Mengru pressed further to get more information out of him.
"It's nothing, just information on some important residents. They all have a lot of supplies!" Li Jin replied casually. Although the information was important, it wasn't exactly top secret.
“A lot of supplies.” Lin Mengru leaned close to Li Jin’s ear and whispered in a coaxing tone, “Then can’t we requisition their supplies? And then we can secretly keep some for ourselves, and we’ll never have to worry about food and drink for the rest of our lives, right?”
Li Jin's heart skipped a beat. This was indeed a good idea. Right now was a chaotic time, perfect for taking advantage of the confusion.
However, he quickly rejected the idea, "No, no! Their forces are not weak, and if we forcefully impose a tax, it might cause conflict!"
"Are they really not weak at all?" Lin Mengru's arms wrapped around his neck like water snakes.
Then, with her slender fingers, she opened the folder, pointed to a page, and said, "And what about her!"
Li Jin followed her finger and looked closely.
Ye Ning, the former wife of the president of Mengran Group, now lives with her current husband. In addition to the couple, there is a nanny, a student, and a former mercenary.
Apart from the mercenary who was a bit troublesome, the others were basically powerless to resist.
Moreover, she had a shopping record of nearly 100 million yuan before the extreme cold began.
My God, two hundred million! That's a lot of supplies!
Moreover, this shopping record is incomplete.
If he could get his hands on this supply, why would he bother going back to H country? Wouldn't it be great to just stay in A city and become a local tyrant?
This really is an easy target, and Li Jin was deeply tempted.
"My little Mengru, you really are my lucky goddess!" Li Jin excitedly kissed her.
Lin Mengru secretly rejoiced, thinking, "Ye Ning, this time you're finally going to fall into my hands, aren't you?"
"Brother Li, when are we going to collect her supplies? Or should we set off now?" Lin Mengru said ingratiatingly, she couldn't wait to see Ye Ning lose everything.
"Wait! This matter needs to be planned out. I can't just show up directly!" Li Jin was certainly not an uncultured fool like Lin Mengru. If he didn't have any brains, he wouldn't have been able to climb to this position.
If he hadn't been caught in the act of having an affair with his boss's wife, he would never have been sent to this godforsaken place.
"What?! We still need to plan? How long will that take? What if someone else beats us to it!"
Lin Mengru couldn't wait to see Ye Ning kneeling in front of her, begging for mercy. When the time came, she would slash Ye Ning's face and throw her into a pile of beggars.
Just thinking about that scene made her feel relieved.
"Don't rush! I just said I can't show up directly, not that I'm not going!" He can't go using his current identity, otherwise he'll have to hand everything over, and he might be able to sneak a few supplies through his fingers.
If he's going to play, he should play big.
"When are we going?" Lin Mengru pouted.
"I can't go directly in my current capacity, but I know a few people. If they handle this, it will be perfectly logical." As long as it's done in an individual capacity, then it's perfectly logical to take it all for myself.
"My little Mengru, I need you to contact them through Jian about this!" That way, if anything goes wrong, we can just shift the blame to Lin Mengru. No ruthlessness, no manly spirit!
"Should I go?" Lin Mengru hesitated.
"Don't worry! I'm here for you, everything will be fine!" Li Jin urged.
"Alright then!" Lin Mengru agreed after hearing Li Jin's suggestion, "But I have one condition!"
"What are the conditions!" Li Jin frowned. Could it be that they want to divide up the supplies?
"Once we get our hands on her, I'll have to deal with this woman!" A cold glint flashed in Lin Mengru's eyes as she pointed to Ye Ning's photo.
"No problem!" Li Jin agreed without hesitation. He had just felt that the names Ye Ning and Mengran Group were familiar, as if he had heard them somewhere before.
He suddenly remembered that these were the same people who frequently appeared in the gossip circles of City A before the extreme cold arrived.
No wonder Lin Mengru kept urging him to deal with Ye Ning; it turns out it was an old grudge!
"Then it's a deal!" Lin Mengru and Li Jin exchanged a glance, each harboring their own ulterior motives.
"My little Mengru!" Li Jin suddenly picked up Lin Mengru.
"What's wrong?" Lin Mengru was caught off guard and her face turned pale.
"Now that the plan over there has been finalized, shouldn't we talk about what's going on between us?" Li Jin said meaningfully.
"What's going on between us? What is it?" Lin Mengru asked, pretending not to know.
Li Jing leaned close to her ear and whispered a few words.
"You're so annoying!" Lin Mengru said reproachfully.
"What's so annoying? Didn't we already agree on this this morning?" Li Jin picked her up and carried her to the lounge.
Meanwhile, Ye Ning, whom Lin Mengru and the others considered an easy target, was watching Wang Ma and the others make fried meat in the shelter.
Various kinds of bright orange-yellow hot corn oil sizzled and bubbled, their aroma and fumes filling the air, making one's mouth water at first sight.
"Miss, please try one and see how it is," Aunt Wang said solicitously, handing over a freshly fried shrimp.
"Achoo!" Ye Ning suddenly sneezed. She blew her nose casually, took the shrimp, and was about to take a bite.
"Achoo!" Another sneeze hit!
That's really strange. What's wrong? Could she have caught a cold?
That shouldn't be the case! Could it be that someone else is eyeing her again?
