Reborn in the Apocalypse with Space, Stockpiling Hundreds of Billions Without Panic

In her previous life, Qiao Yu thought Jiang Zhan was mentally unstable; she feared and loathed him. Yet, Jiang Zhan endured endless torture to save her, protecting her until his very last breath.

Chapter 339 Take Them In

They sat there for a while before they heard a knock on the door.

Gu Nanyu turned his head and said loudly, "Come in."

The door was opened and Chen Xiangdong came in.

He had a smile on his face and was holding a large tray in his hand, on which were many snacks, instant noodles, self-heating rice and other fast foods.

"Brother Yu, I'm here to bring you some food."

Gu Nanyu nodded, raised his chin towards the table, and motioned him to put the things on the table.

Chen Xiangdong walked around to Qiao Yu and Jiang Zhan, and while placing the tray between the four of them, he asked Qiao Yu with a smile: "Sister Qiao, why didn't Brother Cheng come over these two times?"

Qiao Yu was initially shocked by his address, but after thinking about it, he didn't say anything. He just glanced at Gu Nanyu standing beside him and said with a pout, "Well... I'll have to ask your boss about that..."

Seeing Qiao Yu's helpless expression, Gu Nanyu and Chen Xiangdong understood what was going on. Before Gu Nanyu could curse, Chen Xiangdong said seriously, "Hey, this is Brother Cheng's fault. How could you not come to see us just because you were afraid of bad luck?!"

"At worst, we can just stay away from Brother Yu together!"

Upon hearing this, Gu Nanyu was so angry that he almost fell over. He picked up the mineral water at hand and threw it at Chen Xiangdong.

Chen Xiangdong reacted quickly. Seeing that the situation was not good, he ran out quickly with his head in his hands as soon as Gu Nanyu made a move.

Seeing this, Mu Yuan quietly leaned over to Mu Yan's ear and asked softly, "Sister, why do you want to stay away from this brother? He doesn't look like a bad person!"

Mu Yan also replied softly: "I don't know either. From what they said, maybe this brother has some special abilities!"

Qiao Yu, who was already laughing on the side, laughed even louder when she heard the conversation between the two sisters, "Yanyan and Yuanyuan are so smart!"

"This brother, although he's not a bad person, Yanyan and Yuanyuan should not get too close to him in the future, because he has magic that will turn anyone who gets close to him into unlucky people!"

Gu Nanyu saw that Mu Yan and Mu Yuan widened their eyes after hearing what Qiao Yu said, looking at him with curiosity and confusion. He was so angry that his teeth were itching, but he couldn't refute.

In the end, he could only take a deep breath and pretend that he hadn't heard anything. As he stood up, he said to Qiao Yu and Jiang Zhan, "Zhan, sister-in-law, come with me. I'll take you to see the latest batch of goods we made."

"As for them...let them eat something and rest here for a while."

Qiao Yu looked up at Gu Nanyu, and seeing that he was looking at her and Jiang Zhan seriously, she knew that he had something to say to them. So she stood up with Jiang Zhan, said hello to Chen Wanning, and followed Gu Nanyu out of the room.

"Tell me, what's the matter?" Jiang Zhan asked in a low voice after walking out of the room and taking a few steps, "They can't hear you."

Qiao Yu keenly felt that Jiang Zhan had set up a mental barrier, so he also looked at Gu Nanyu.

Gu Nanyu scratched his brow, pointed in the direction of the room he had just visited, and said hesitantly, "Is this the one or two hundred laborers you told me about before?"

"Can you explain why a workforce of one or two hundred suddenly became just three? And three girls, one large and two small?"

It would be fine if there were only a few people, but they were all girls!

He's a big, strong man, how could he take in these three girls?!

Qiao Yu smiled awkwardly after hearing this, "Uh...how should I put it, there was...something unexpected..."

Gu Nanyu frowned, "But there are only men here, they are..."

"You've already harvested the food."

Before Gu Nanyu could finish, Jiang Zhan interrupted him calmly.

"..." Gu Nanyu choked.

Isn't that because he trusted them too much?!

But as the saying goes, one should be grateful to those who have eaten one's food and be soft-hearted when receiving one's gift. This really made Gu Nanyu choke.

Seeing Gu Nanyu speechless, Qiao Yu chuckled and comforted him, "Don't worry, Third Brother, they are all aliens with the ability to protect themselves. They won't cause you any trouble!"

In terms of ability, Chen Wanning is much stronger than the average alien.

"Third brother, we have no other choice." Qiao Yu continued, "I won't hide it from you. The reason the base is cleaning up the black market this time is actually to find an excuse to capture Sister Wan Ning alive. So, Sister Wan Ning really can't go to the base."

Gu Nanyu raised his eyebrows, "Why do you want to arrest her?"

"For experiments."

Upon hearing this, Gu Nanyu raised his eyebrows again, but this time he didn't continue to ask questions. Instead, he smacked his lips and nodded, "...Tsk. Okay, then let them stay with me for now."

Since the word "experiment" is involved, it means that Chen Wanning is a very special person.

Otherwise, the base would never have spent so much manpower and resources to capture her.

When Qiao Yu saw Gu Nanyu agreed, he immediately smiled and said, "Thank you, Third Brother!"

After settling Chen Wanning, Mu Yan and Mu Yuan, Qiao Yu and Jiang Zhan did not stay any longer and quickly left Gu Nanyu's arsenal.

"Azhan, do you think that if the base finds out that Sister Wan Ning is missing, will they continue to attack the black market?" Qiao Yu sat in the passenger seat and asked Jiang Zhan, who was driving.

"I think so." Jiang Zhan replied gently, "The mission has been released, and many teams have signed up. Canceling it hastily will cause dissatisfaction."

"And... Chen Wanning is just one of the targets, not the only one."

Qiao Yu pursed her lips. That's right.

Even without Chen Wanning, the development of Nu City has reached the point where the base has to intervene.

"Then we have to find time to go visit Cao Yanba again. He still has one of my jade seeds in his body!"

Although Qiao Yu's jade reserves are not small, they are things that are in tune with Qiao Yu's soul after all, so Qiao Yu cherishes every piece of jade.

Besides, no one knows whether the base will take this opportunity to capture more people for experiments. If the jade seed in Cao Yaba's body is discovered, it will be troublesome for them.

"Then we'll go there now."

Qiao Yu thought about it and shook his head, "Let's go to Yan Zijin's garage and return the car first."

As soon as Qiao Yu finished speaking, before Jiang Zhan could respond, the two heard a loud "bang" and then the car began to obviously deviate from its route.

Jiang Zhan frowned and reacted very quickly to unbuckle Qiao Yu and his own seat belts. Then he threw himself on Qiao Yu, hugged her tightly in his arms, and rolled out of the car through the passenger door.

The car lost control and crashed directly into a giant mutant tree, forcing it to brake.

"Ayu, are you okay?" Jiang Zhan looked at Qiao Yu in his arms the first thing he did after landing, his eyes full of tension.
