Shen Nanxing reluctantly pulled away from Jiang Nian'an's lips when she was almost out of breath, but still held her tightly.
What's wrong with you so early in the morning?
Jiang Nian'an nestled in his arms to calm her breathing, and asked with a hint of reproach.
"It's nothing, the little guy just told me a few things."
Shen Nanxing smiled and lowered his head, giving her a light peck on the lips before pulling her to sit down at the table.
He handed the chopsticks to Jiang Nian'an, then pushed the millet porridge, side dishes, and steamed buns in front of her. He then picked up an egg and slowly peeled it.
Jiang Nian'an, however, couldn't eat much. Her heart was in her throat as she tentatively asked, "What did Xiao Zhanzhan say to you?"
"Let's eat first~"
Shen Nanxing was still smiling as he brought the peeled egg to her lips.
Jiang Nian'an had no choice but to suppress her words and eat an egg from his hand.
Just as she was about to ask another question, Shen Nanxing put another steamed bun to her mouth, giving her no chance to continue asking.
Jiang Nian'an knew that Shen Nanxing wouldn't tell her if she didn't finish her breakfast properly.
"I'll eat it myself."
She simply picked up her chopsticks and focused on eating, but a sense of restlessness crept into her heart.
Shen Nanxing didn't insist. He put down his chopsticks, propped his chin on one hand, and looked at her with affection, his eyes smiling.
But his appearance only made Jiang Nian'an more conflicted, uneasy, and confused.
What exactly did Xiao Zhanzhan say to Brother Shen?
He didn't seem unhappy that she had kept so many things from him; on the contrary, he seemed quite happy...
Neither of them noticed Xiao Longzhan, who was peeking through the crack in the door, covering his mouth and chuckling as he watched them.
Xiao Longzhan deliberately ignored Jiang Nian'an's calls to his consciousness.
"Stop right there! If you come any closer, don't blame us for being impolite!"
Suddenly, Yuan Yi's cold shout came from downstairs.
Jiang Nian'an frowned slightly, put down her chopsticks, and prepared to go to the window to check the situation.
Shen Nanxing gently pressed her down, "You eat, I'll go."
He strode to the window and looked down.
There were more than twenty people standing opposite Yuan Yi, carrying various farm tools such as shovels and sickles as weapons.
The leader was a lean, dark-skinned young man who was arguing angrily with Yuan Yi.
"Brother, aren't we going out to take a look?"
Luo Yue stood by the window and turned to ask Luo Yi, who was half-lying on the bed eating snacks.
Upon hearing this, Luo Yi said without looking up, "This is a small matter, just leave it to Yuan Yi and the others."
If he has to handle everything, wouldn't Yuan Yi and the others lose their jobs?
"Alright, we finally have some free time, sit down and rest for a bit."
Luo Yi patted the spot next to him, "If Yuan Yi can't handle this, he'll call us."
Luo Yue didn't move, still looking down.
Danger can strike in the blink of an eye, and by the time Yuan Yi calls them, it might be too late.
I'm still keeping an eye on insurance.
Luo Yi clicked his tongue, sprang to his feet, and moved a chair behind Luo Yue. "Then sit down and watch."
Luo Yue sat down, then pulled Luo Yi along, tugging at his sleeve and pleading, "Brother, come with me!"
"Okay, okay, I'll keep an eye on it with you!"
Luo Yi had no choice but to sit sideways on the windowsill and look down, but he didn't take the twenty-odd people below seriously.
If these people have problems, that cunning guy Chen Yang won't just sit by and watch!
Shen Nanxing had the same idea as Luo Yi and was prepared to observe from the sidelines.
But when his gaze fell upon Xiao Longzhan, who was hiding behind the pile of firewood watching the excitement with an excited expression, he pinched the bridge of his nose and helplessly pushed open the window.
"Yuan Yi, what happened?"
"It's like this, Second Young Master, this person said we were staying in his house and demanded that we pay for our accommodation."
They also claimed that we moved into their house without permission, causing them emotional distress, and demanded compensation from them.
Upon hearing Shen Nanxing's question, Yuan Yi quickly looked up and replied.
"Second Young Master?"
Upon hearing Yuan Yi address Shen Nanxing, the survivors following behind the young man became restless.
"That's a title only rich people would use; they must have something good on them."
"Many rich young people are foolish and don't know how to manage their money. Even if we ask for an exorbitant amount, they won't even notice!"
Someone quietly gave the young man some advice: "Sanwa, ask them for more. If they don't give it to us, we'll make a scene. There are more of us than we're afraid!"
"Yes, yes, yes, extort more!"
Yuan Yi was speechless upon hearing this conversation and couldn't help but call out, "Hey, I heard everything!"
He is neither deaf nor stupid.
Besides, having more people doesn't necessarily mean having stronger fighting power.
If it were a bunch of weaklings, they probably wouldn't be enough for him to fight alone.
The person who was speaking suddenly covered their mouth and crouched down to slip away to the back of the crowd.
The young man called Sanwa showed a hint of embarrassment, but thinking of his family hiding in the cellar, he straightened his back again.
"I don't need much, five catties of rice is enough."
Sanwa glanced at the bodyguard behind Yuan Yi, his eyes flashing, and handed the piece of paper he had been holding to Yuan Yi. "This is proof."
Wealthy families are not short of resources, but their subordinates are also formidable, and they are not people that the wealthy can handle.
Yuan Yi took it with a puzzled look, unfolded it, and saw that it was a property certificate.
There was a photo of the man in front of me, along with his signature and official seal.
Yuan Yi's lips twitched involuntarily. This preparation was quite thorough; they had probably been watching them for a long time.
However, this thing is just a piece of waste paper in the apocalypse.
