Chapter 110 Open Scheme
Xie Shuangshuang was so moved that her eyes welled up with tears.
Xiaoling found this scene extremely ironic.
Xie Shuangshuang is always like this, but as soon as things go wrong, she immediately turns her back on everyone.
In Xie Shuangshuang's eyes, others are just knives in her hand. If she can't make herself comfortable, she'll make others uncomfortable.
"Just wait for my good news."
Xiaoling was very confident in this method.
Xie Shuangshuang also had great confidence in her: "Okay, Xiaoling, this time we can only succeed, we can't afford to fail!"
Xiaoling sensed the threat in her words and nodded: "Shuangshuang, we will definitely succeed."
Xie Shuangshuang was also full of confidence after hearing this.
Xiaoling moved back, since she didn't have much stuff, just a few clothes and some other things.
When Xiaoling went back to pack, she expressed her reluctance to part with Zhang Chen, but Zhang Chen didn't react in any particular way.
In his view, he and Xiaoling were just strangers who met by chance, and it was normal for him, as a doctor, to take Xiaoling in.
It's good that nothing went wrong; of course, he wouldn't try to stop Xiaoling from leaving.
"If you feel unwell anywhere, you can come back to me, or go directly to the clinic; I'll be there."
"Thank you, Dr. Zhang Chen, you are such a kind person."
Zhang Chen blushed when praised like that.
He had previously ruined his image in the eyes of the islanders because of Xu Haiyu's incident, and his later actions against Xin Li also disappointed some of his elders who loved him.
Fortunately, he performed well during the typhoon, which salvaged some of his reputation. However, he is still somewhat shaken by the experience.
Xiaoling's words really encouraged him.
He couldn't help but glance at Xiaoling, who blushed and her heart raced under his gaze.
The atmosphere instantly became somewhat ambiguous. Xiaoling felt embarrassed to stay any longer and said, "Then I'll come see you again when I have time," before turning and leaving.
Zhang Chen stared at Xiaoling's departing figure, his ears slowly turning red.
...
Xin Li soon learned that those people had successfully obtained the items.
One of the women even went to He Mingzhou's house to tell Xin Li about the difference in the materials of the clothes.
Everyone's talking about this now.
As he spoke, the man glanced sideways at Xin Li's expression.
It seemed she was trying to discern Xie Shuangshuang's attitude from the changes in her expression.
But Xin Li's expression didn't change.
All of this was within Xin Li's expectations, so she wasn't surprised that everyone had discovered something about Xie Shuangshuang.
"Guests are welcome, and Xie Shuangshuang has been very kind to everyone, giving us gifts and helping us out. So please don't be too harsh on her."
"It's not right to take someone's benefits and then talk about them behind their back."
Xinli said a few words in a lukewarm manner.
The woman immediately felt ashamed.
"Xinli, you've thought things through."
"I remembered I had things to do at home, so I went back first."
"Okay."
After Xinli agreed, the man left quickly.
Xin Li went straight up to the second floor and sat on the balcony, pondering Xie Shuangshuang's reaction, feeling that this matter was not going to be resolved so quickly.
As long as Xie Shuangshuang doesn't leave this island, she might do something to target Xin Li.
Xin Li knew she couldn't keep guarding against Xie Shuangshuang forever, so she decided to take the initiative.
He Mingzhou didn't go home that night, so Xin Li sneaked out under the cover of darkness.
Originally, she planned to catch some snakes, insects, rats and ants to scare Xie Shuangshuang. After all, she was a girl from the provincial capital, and she was definitely not as brave as the people on the island.
If you scare Xie Shuangshuang a few more times, she'll definitely run away.
Xinli was happy to have a smart brain.
She toiled away in the field for most of the night before finally catching four or five non-venomous snakes.
The post-apocalyptic lord isn't even afraid of zombies, so catching snakes is naturally a piece of cake for him.
She quietly went to Xie Shuangshuang's place with a sack, intending to put the snake inside, when she heard voices coming from inside.
Is this a good idea?
The man's voice held a hint of hesitation: "Shuangshuang, what if those people find out?"
"If this gets back to the deputy commander, he will definitely punish me."
"What are you afraid of with me here?"
Xie Shuangshuang's voice was filled with confidence and arrogance: "Besides, I only did this because I received the news. Do you intend to let our plan to deliver supplies fail at the last minute?"
“But we can just talk to the division commander. If he knows someone is stealing supplies, he will definitely send someone to deal with it. He Mingzhou is so capable, how could such a small matter be difficult for him?”
Xie Shuangshuang's expression changed upon hearing He Mingzhou's name.
"But we have no evidence!"
Xie Shuangshuang tried her best to persuade them: "We know all the people on the island. If we just say we want to move the supplies, do you think they will agree? They might even suspect that we want to keep these things for ourselves. Will we be able to leave this island alive then?"
The young man's face was filled with shock and fear: "These people aren't as scary as you say, are they?"
They've been here for so long, and the people here are clearly very warm and hospitable.
Even though they themselves were not getting enough to eat, they still thought about treating them well.
They kept calling him their benefactor.
This young soldier hadn't been in the army for long, and this was the first time he'd been treated like this.
"When you run out of food, you'll see how terrifying those people really are. In ancient times, there were even people who traded children to eat. Do you know how poor people were back then, eating grass?"
"Never underestimate people's dedication and belief in food."
"Besides, I didn't ask you to dispose of the grain. It's just for safety reasons that I moved the grain to a safe place. If the other side comes, they will definitely find nothing. Then we can catch them like turtles in a jar, and return the grain to its rightful owner after we catch the bad guys."
"If there are no bad people, we can take it out when it's time to distribute the grain. It won't affect anything anyway."
The soldier thought it made sense, so he said, "Then I'll do as you say."
"Hey, hurry up and go. Remember to hide the things well, and bring a few more people with you. Don't alert anyone. Don't come out unless I come looking for you."
"Uh-huh."
The soldier quickly left with the key to the granary.
Xie Shuangshuang watched the other person's back, her eyes full of smiles.
As expected of a greenhorn, so easy to fool.
Xie Shuangshuang laughed triumphantly: "Xinli, just wait to be torn to pieces by the angry islanders."
Xin Li quietly left Xie Shuangshuang's courtyard, casually tossing the snakes into a corner of the yard, intending to make snake soup the next day. She then lay in bed reviewing the incident.
Although she didn't know what Xie Shuangshuang was up to, it was clear that anyone involved with these supplies would be in big trouble.
Thinking that she had her own space, Xin Li smiled.
She glanced at the night outside the window, and when it was getting dark and people were sound asleep, she quietly slipped out.
When they returned, the space was already filled with supplies.
She took a nice shower and went to bed, now just waiting for the show to begin.
