"I'll help you solve your problem once and for all."
As Cheng Zhen spoke, a fierce glint flashed in his eyes. He wanted to hold one of the children's hands, but the two little ones held each other's hands very warily and skipped and hopped to press the elevator button. Their rejection of him was still obvious.
He touched his nose helplessly, secretly watching Jiang Wan's reaction.
Jiang Wan didn't care that he was trying to interact with the twins. They were blood relatives, and as their adoptive mother, she had no right to interfere.
But what she cared about was the matter he was about to deal with: "I'm not going."
Cheng Zhen looked puzzled, wanting to ask why? He took her out to make an appearance together, so that everyone in the Silver City VIP room would know that she and the two children were under his protection, and no one would dare to bully them anymore. She wouldn't have to worry about anyone coveting her house here anymore. Wasn't that a good thing?
This is precisely what Jiang Wan rejects; she doesn't want to be labeled "Cheng Zhen."
Or perhaps that's just her personality; she's never liked being so high-profile, which is probably inherited from her mother's low-key genes.
In short, she said firmly, leaving no room for refusal, "I'll wait for you in the underground parking lot."
Just then, the elevator arrived at the basement level. She took one child in each hand and went to find her modified RV.
Cheng Zhen had no choice. He couldn't argue with her, nor could he force her to cooperate with him, so he could only go to the ground alone.
Jiang Wan was mentally prepared, but seeing that the exterior of her RV had been painted a grayish-green color, she couldn't help but feel a chill.
Tsk tsk, what kind of bizarre aesthetic is this?!
She genuinely disliked it.
Jiang Xiaoxin liked it very much. She circled the car once, then smiled and tilted her head back to get in.
Jiang Wan asked curiously, "Does Xin Xin like this color scheme?"
She wondered if this girl had some unusual tastes? Shouldn't someone her age prefer bright, vibrant colors?
As her guardian, should she intervene?
The silly girl, unaware of her mother's thoughts, exclaimed with deep emotion, "This car can disappear into the wilderness without a close look; its concealment is top-notch!"
Jiang Wan suddenly realized, "Oh, right, that's why she said it looked so familiar. It's the camouflage color commonly used by the city guards!"
She had momentarily forgotten what she was thinking, but she was quite surprised that Jiang Xiaoxin was so knowledgeable and knew what "concealment" meant.
Jiang Xiaoxin proudly raised her head: "I heard the plants in the wild complaining that we humans are too cunning and good at disguising ourselves!"
Jiang Wan patted her head and gently praised her, "Our Xin Xin is getting better and better!"
Jiang Xiaoxin blinked her eyes with a hint of shame. In fact, she couldn't control her sensory abilities very well yet, so she often pestered Uncle Yu or Uncle Yu with her brother to take them outside so that she could sense all life in the wild. This was the only way to truly train her abilities to be strong.
The mother and her two children got into the car and locked the doors. Jiang Wan naturally started the car first, and then turned on the oxygen circulation system and heating system. The two little ones obediently climbed onto the bed, waiting for their mother to finish her work and feed them.
They were hungry, but they could hold it in for now, so let's not talk about it for the time being.
But when Jiang Wan started the car, there was no response for a long time because the key start triggered a alarm on the fuel system on the dashboard.
groove!
It's out of gas!
Her car is a dual-powered vehicle, with both diesel and gasoline engines. In this situation, it's obvious that someone stole every last drop of gas from her tank!
Who is so despicable?
Moreover, the car has been sitting in the garage for quite some time now, and the solar power system has stopped working, so it's completely immobile.
"Mom, what's wrong?"
Jiang Xiaoxin sensed something was wrong and asked in a low voice.
"It's okay, Mom will get out of the car to check. You all stay in the car and don't move around."
Jiang Wan got out of the car again, carrying a can of gasoline in her hand.
In this oxygen-deficient post-apocalyptic world, fuel in the city has long been controlled as a strategic resource, making it difficult for ordinary people to refuel!
Her car remained parked in the garage, so it's no wonder that some people coveted it.
Fortunately, she didn't take the whole car away.
It seems she really needs to keep her car with her at all times.
She walked to the back of the car and had just opened the fuel tank cap when a gust of wind slashed towards the back of her neck.
"Mother!"
The twins saw everything from inside the car. Jiang Xiaoxin immediately cried out in alarm to warn them, while Jiang Xiaoshu activated her purification ability to protect her mother, causing the assailant's blow to miss its mark.
Because Jiang Wan happened to sidestep, he only thought that the woman was too cunning, and never expected that she was protected by a purification ability.
"Mom, get in the car quickly!" Jiang Xiaoxin shouted anxiously. She saw many bad guys coming towards them from behind!
With Jiang Xiaoshu's purification ability, Jiang Wan was not afraid. She calmly opened the gasoline can, then took out a 20mm diameter flexible hose, and somehow bent it in her hand. The gasoline automatically poured from the can into the tank.
The leader of the thugs, who was attacking with a stick, watched with envy, narrowing his eyes and saying maliciously, "I didn't expect her to be a rich little woman. She even had gasoline in her car."
They had been watching her from the shadows for a long time, and only saw her get into the car empty-handed, and then get out with a can of oil in her hand. Naturally, they assumed that the oil had been kept in the car all along.
"There should still be quite a few left in the car, right?"
His greedy and lewd gaze swept across the car, then landed on Jiang Wan. The car was big enough, and there must be a lot of supplies inside. This woman was really good-looking, and she was also a little rich. Although having two children was a bit of a burden, killing them would solve everything.
Thinking this, he raised his hand to signal his men not to rush forward impulsively; he would handle this woman alone!
Jiang Wan put her hands in her pockets and calmly scanned him and the people behind him. She felt that one of them, with his side-swept bangs, looked familiar, but she couldn't remember where she had seen him before.
"Hey beautiful, how about we talk about something?"
The man with the stick carried the stick he used to commit the crime on his back and walked forward with a smile. He was not bad-looking, but his clothes were a bit dirty. Because his mind was impure, his appearance reflected his heart, so he looked extremely lewd.
"Not good." Jiang Wan refused directly, her attitude and voice quite cold and hard, showing no fear or apprehension whatsoever.
"Hey!" the man with the stick glared angrily, "You little wench, you don't know what's good for you, do you?"
"Smack!"
Just as he was about to reach out and grab it, something with barbs and sharp blades suddenly swung straight at his hand, and in one swift motion, his finger was severed!
"groove!"
"Boss!"
"You're asking for it!"
Upon seeing this scene, his henchmen jumped up and rushed towards Jiang Wan with bloodshot eyes.
That damned woman dared to injure their leader! She's asking for it!
