Chapter 157 He was so angry his face turned black [23]

Ah Chu exclaimed, "Wow! What fresh apples!"

Song Jiahe smiled at A Chu and explained, "I have spatial abilities; I can keep things fresh if I put them inside."

Ah Chu's expression was exaggerated, looking very surprised: "Wow, that's amazing!"

"But I don't want the apple. Jiahe, you keep it for yourself. These things are too precious in the apocalypse."

Song Jiahe handed the apple to A Chu again, saying, "It's okay, I have plenty more in my space, you can take it."

Ah Chu looked very eager for the apple and reached out to take it.

"Well then, thank you so much, Sister Jiahe!" Her smile was innocent and sweet.

But Song Jiahe found it very irritating.

Why do some people have to struggle to survive in the apocalypse, while others can do nothing and be protected, living even better than before the apocalypse?

Despite these thoughts in her mind, Song Jiahe tried her best to maintain a calm and composed demeanor.

Seeing that Achu had accepted the apples, she then began to talk to her about other things.

Song Jiahe wanted to join Shen Wang and Shen Sui's team through A Chu.

Although Song Jiahe felt resentful, he understood that A Chu must have been highly valued in that team.

If Achu were to suggest to Shenwang and the others that they join, Shenwang and the others might agree.

Incidentally, Song Jiahe also wanted to find out about the wood-type crystal core.

Although Song Jiahe's words seemed casual, A Chu still understood her intention.

Achu chose to play along and brought up the mutated plant she encountered in the village the day before.

However, she made no mention of how she had gutted the mutated plant with an axe and extracted its core.

Ah Chu simply told Song Jiahe, "There's a strange, luminous green stone inside that mutated plant, like a raw gemstone. Once it's taken out, the mutated plant withers!"

"Dr. Wang said that it must be that stone that made the mutated plant so powerful!"

Upon hearing this, Song Jiahe knew it was definitely a wood-type crystal core!

Suppressing her eagerness, she feigned curiosity and asked, "Where is that stone? I've never seen anything so amazing before. May I see it?

Ah Chu shrugged with regret and said, "It's a pity that you arrived a little late, Sister Jiahe, you can't see it!"

"That stone arrived in Brother Lin's hands yesterday, and it quickly turned into a pile of powder and disappeared!"

Song Jiahe couldn't contain his excitement: "What? Absorbed? Who is Brother Lin?"

Achu pretended not to hear her say "absorbed" and pointed towards the bustling crowd.

"The one with the thin face, a smile on his face, and holding a big square plate in his hand."

"Brother Lin is a wood-type ability user, which probably matches the attributes of that mutated plant."

"Look, he's using his superpower to sprout beans again!"

Song Jiahe looked in the direction A Chu was pointing and immediately spotted Lin Xiangheng holding a large square plate.

Because in the large square plate he was holding, white bean sprouts were visibly sprouting up.

Lin Xiangheng cheerfully told the others, "I'll encourage some more lettuce to grow later, so I can add some fresh vegetables to today's instant noodles!"

His superpowers have improved a lot. Before, he could only grow bean sprouts, but now he can also grow other vegetables and provide others with fresh vegetables.

Everyone else was delighted to hear that there were fresh vegetables to eat.

When Song Jiahe saw the plate of tender bean sprouts, her face turned black with anger.

That was supposed to be her wood-based ability!

Lin Xiangheng, a person she had never even heard of in this apocalyptic world, actually stole the wood-type superpower she had her eye on!

Song Jiahe's breathing became slightly rapid, and she felt a tightness in her chest.

Even though it was expected, I'm still angry!

Seeing Song Jiahe like this, Achu knew in her heart that she was angry, but she still had to show doubt and concern on her face:

"Sister Jiahe, what's wrong? You look so pale. Are you feeling unwell?"

Song Jiahe: ...She's feeling uncomfortable!

She took a deep breath, clenched her fists at her sides, and only calmed down when her nails dug into her palms.

Song Jiahe's voice was slightly weak: "Yes, I suddenly feel a little unwell. I'll go back over there first."

Achu nodded: "Okay, Jiahe, you should go back and rest. I'll ask Brother Lin to share some vegetables with you later!"

Song Jiahe declined, saying, "No need. Vegetables are precious; you can keep them for yourselves."

She was afraid that eating it would only make her angrier!

Ah Chu insisted on giving it to her: "Sister Jiahe, if you don't want it, then you can have this apple back. I can't accept it!"

Song Jiahe wanted to take the apples back, but if Shen Sui and the others found out that she had given them away and then took them back, they would probably think she was stingy.

Unable to refuse Achu's request, Song Jiahe had no choice but to agree to accept the vegetables she sent.

Achu wanted to say something more, but Shen Wang, seeing that she was still talking to Song Jiahe, called her back.

She responded, then said goodbye to Song Jiahe, and ran briskly towards Chen Wang with the apple in her hand.

Song Jiahe watched as A Chu ran up to Chen Wang and handed him the apple.

Shen Wang shook his head, and it was unclear what he said.

He glanced at Song Jiahe, his sharp, deep eyes seeming to pierce through her.

Song Jiahe's heart trembled, and she subconsciously avoided Chen Wang's gaze.

When she looked over again, Shen Wang had already looked away and started talking to A Chu again.

Song Jiahe returned to his team, where they were also setting up tents.

They had camped in the wild before, so they were experienced.

The reason why the team members were willing to follow Song Jiahe was that she killed zombies without batting an eye and seemed to have everything under control.

In addition, she is also a space-type ability user, and with her space around, they have stockpiled a lot of supplies.

While others in the apocalypse are struggling to find enough to eat, they can still have something hot to eat every day.

As Song Jiahe ate the instant noodles cooked with canned meat that she had taken out of her spatial storage, the team members' complaints about her subsided somewhat.

Ah Chu kept her word and delivered vegetables, including lettuce and bean sprouts.

Song Jiahe didn't eat any; she shared it all with her teammates.

At night, people were arranged to take turns keeping watch at the camp.

It was a peaceful night, nothing too serious.

The next day, everyone got up early to pack and continue their journey.

The morning was fine, but the afternoon turned cloudy.

The air was also stuffy and hot, making people feel a bit irritable.

Looking at the rolling dark clouds, Song Jiahe felt that this was probably an opportunity to get closer to Shen Sui and the others.

She drove past the other cars in Shen Sui's team and drove alongside Shen Sui's car.

Song Jiahe lowered the car window and waved to Chen Sui.

Shen Sui was dozing in the passenger seat when the driver saw him and called him.

"Boss, the female captain of the squad behind us seems to have something to say to you."

Shen Sui opened his eyes and looked over.

He lowered the car window halfway.

Then Song Jiahe said, "Captain Chen, the weather looks bad. It would be best to have everyone find a place to settle down first and wait for the rain to stop before leaving."

Shen Sui didn't take it seriously: "It's just raining, no need to make a fuss."

Song Jiahe: "No, I think this rain is probably not simple."
