Chapter 154 Returning to the Drama Theater

"These foods are for you. Although... you should still try your best to survive. As long as you live, there is hope for you to reunite."

After leaving her things with Shen Guang, Mu Qingyu took Shen Zhuzhu's hand, looked down at her and asked, "Come with me?"

The little girl looked at her father with tears in her eyes, but still nodded. Even though she was crying, she didn't make a sound.

Shen Guang turned his head away and refused to look at his daughter again.

"My name is Mu Qingyu." Mu Qingyu left her name before leaving.

After Mu Qingyu left with Shen Zhuzhu, Shen Guang was already in tears.

They came in by climbing through a window, but leaving was easy; they could just walk out the front door.

Before leaving, Mu Qingyu took out a large coat and wrapped the little girl up tightly, then tied her to her back. The yellow sand was everywhere, and the light was already poor. Now that it was getting late, the visibility was even worse. She didn't know what she would encounter on the way back, and the child could easily get lost.

So she simply tied it to her back; it was easy to carry, didn't get in the way, and wasn't easy to lose.

Shen Zhuzhu was really well-behaved. She didn't say a word the whole time as Mu Qingyu tied her up. Her eyes showed curiosity but no fear, and she didn't like to ask questions.

On her way back to the theater, Mu Qingyu encountered fewer people and more zombies, which made it easier for her to hunt them down. All in all, aside from bringing an extra child along, this trip was quite fruitful.

It is foreseeable that the numbers on the space-themed wooden doors will definitely see another significant increase.

When she knocked on the door of the theater, it was still a child's voice that answered, but Huang Jie was accompanying her.

"Ah! You're finally back! You're so brave to go out alone. I was afraid you wouldn't make it back. If it gets any darker, all the zombies outside will come out, and with the sandstorm at night, you won't be able to see anything."

Tong Yin was quite happy to see Mu Qingyu return, and the small unpleasantness that had occurred during their previous conversation seemed to have never happened.

"Hey, what good stuff did you find? Such a big bag!" The child's voice was full of curiosity and anticipation when Mu Qingyu took a big bundle off her back.

Even Huang Jie came over and asked, "What is this?"

As a result, when the tightly wrapped clothes were untied, revealing a little girl inside, both Tong Yin and Huang Jie were stunned.

"What...is this?" The child's voice pointed at Chen Zhuzhu, quite shocked.

“Her name is Shen Zhuzhu, and her home should have been in this area. Her father works at the municipal library,” Mu Qingyu explained.

Then she recounted Shen Guang's situation and the entrustment he had made.

Of course, she concealed her part of the truth. She only said that on her way out to find supplies, she encountered not only zombies but also robbers.

She ran into the library during the chase. Then she found some food in the library's lounge, and she made her way to the fifth floor, where she found the father and daughter.

As Mu Qingyu spoke, she took off her large backpack from the car and, in front of Tong Yin and Huang Jie, shook out all the contents of the bag.

She gave everything in her original bag to Shen Guang, and then filled another package from her spatial storage, which was a piece of cake for her.

"These are the supplies I collected in the library. You can take them; consider it payment for Chen Zhuzhu's accommodation. Can you take her in?" Mu Qingyu was naturally asking, as there was no reason to force someone to take her in, right?

Mu Qingyu's domineering actions left Huang Jie stunned for a while.

Xiao Shiyang was in charge of most of the decisions regarding the drama theater, so Huang Jie couldn't make the decisions himself and could only call Xiao Shiyang out.

However, there's no need to ask Xiao Shiyang. Based on Huang Jie's understanding of Xiao Shiyang, he knows that Xiao Shiyang will definitely take the little girl in.

Even if Mu Qingyu doesn't give him anything, he will still take him in.

But ultimately, the decision rests with Xiao Shiyang.

Tong Yin ran to call for help, and Xiao Shiyang came out quickly. But surprisingly, Li Wenhao also came out with Xiao Shiyang.

Xiao Shiyang walked ahead, with Li Wenhao following slowly behind him. Tong Yin came last, glaring displeasedly at Li Wenhao ahead of her.

Tong Yin had already briefly explained the situation to Xiao Shiyang, so Xiao Shiyang walked over and said directly, "We can accept her. Tong Yin told me that the little girl's malice level is also zero. She can stay. We don't need your supplies; you can keep them."

Mu Qingyu had some understanding of people like Xiao Shiyang. In the early days of the apocalypse in her previous life, there were quite a few upright and good people like him.

He said he wouldn't accept it, which means he genuinely didn't want it.

However, Mu Qingyu did not retrieve the things that had fallen to the ground. Instead, after thinking for a moment, she said, "I'll give these things to Chen Zhuzhu. Consider them her private property. After all, I found these things in the library."

“But she’s still too young, and she probably can’t keep all these things safe by herself. Could you please keep them safe for her? At least these things can ensure that she won’t go hungry for a while,” Mu Qingyu said.

Since it was Mu Qingyu who gave it to Shen Zhuzhu, Xiao Shiyang naturally couldn't refuse on Shen Zhuzhu's behalf. However, who should be entrusted with keeping the item safe?

"Then leave it to me," Huang Jie said, taking the initiative to take on the responsibility. Mainly, he knew Xiao Shiyang's character well; if he handed the things over to him, he might be tempted to use them for his own purposes someday.

No one present had any objections; even Li Wenhao simply stood aside and watched without saying a word. He had also sized Mu Qingyu up and down for a while, but Mu Qingyu didn't sense any malice from him.
