Jiang Nian'an looked down at Shen Nanchuan, who had climbed less than two meters before slipping to the ground, but then stubbornly continued climbing upwards, and couldn't help but rub her forehead.
"It seems your brother hasn't fully recovered mentally..."
Otherwise, why would he ignore the vines she threw down and insist on climbing the wall himself?
Shen Nanxing rubbed his temples, gave a helpless "hmm," and then pulled up the vine and tossed it in front of Shen Nanchuan, "Come on up."
Shen Nanchuan seemed to only then notice the vines and quickly grabbed them.
Jiang Nian'an activated her supernatural power and pulled him up.
Before Shen Nanchuan could express his longing for his brother, Shen Nanxing put his hand on his shoulder and said, "Tell us about the situation here first."
"good!"
Shen Nanchuan nodded, but after opening his mouth, he could only manage to stammer out, "Actually, I don't know what happened either, they just suddenly appeared..."
Shen Nanxing and Jiang Nian'an: "..."
"Let me speak."
Qiao Huaxi walked over from the other side of the city wall. "When this group of things came, the Lin family was delivering supplies here. Brother Nanchuan was counting the supplies at that time."
Shen Nanxing frowned slightly. "The Lin family is here to deliver supplies?"
"Yes, this place and the points guarded above are the two most dangerous points. The Shen family is in charge of guarding them, while other families are responsible for providing supplies and weapons. This week it's the Lin family's turn to deliver them."
After explaining, Qiao Huaxi went on to answer the question that Shen Nanxing had asked Shen Nanchuan earlier.
"Most of these people below are original residents of Beijing who were driven out by our combined efforts with those above."
They come in groups every now and then, trying to return to Beijing.
But aside from level one zombies that charge blindly, the others will quickly retreat once they realize they can't win.
Qiao Huaxi watched the battle, which was nearing its end, with a calm and composed expression that she was used to.
Shen Nanxing nodded and turned to look at Shen Nanchuan, who was squatting in front of Xiao Longzhan, coaxing Xiao Longzhan to give him a grilled sausage.
"Brother, was the distress call from the guard post your order?"
"Call for help? Call for what help?"
Shen Nanchuan was startled when he was suddenly called out.
After hearing what was said, he breathed a sigh of relief, shook his head, and said, "It wasn't me. I didn't give such an order."
Shen Nanxing then turned his gaze to Qiao Huaxi.
Qiao Huaxi waved her hand, "It's not me. All the scheduling here is under Brother Nanchuan's control."
In the Shen family's home turf, the Qiao family could only obey, not command.
Besides, the current situation isn't worth running back for help!
Jiang Nian'an was stunned for a moment. Everything here was under Shen Nanchuan's jurisdiction?
Her hesitant expression was too obvious, and Qiao Huaxi, who didn't want to talk to Jiang Nian'an because of what had happened earlier, pursed her lips.
She had to hold back; she wanted to make Jiang Nian'an suffer from curiosity without getting an answer!
Jiang Nian'an raised an eyebrow as she looked at Qiao Huaxi, who clearly wanted to speak but was trying hard to hold back.
Actually, she didn't really want to know; she knew she'd find out eventually anyway.
But whether Qiao Huaxi was suffering or not, she didn't know.
Jiang Nian'an popped a piece of chewing gum into her mouth, a beautiful smile curving her lips.
Shen Nanxing saw through Qiao Huaxi's thoughts at a glance, but he didn't intend to ask her.
Instead of arguing with her, we should call a member of the Shen family to answer our questions.
But the moment he turned around, he saw the smile on Jiang Nian'an's face, and his heart melted instantly, abandoning his previous thoughts.
We've had a long and tiring journey, so let's make the little one laugh a bit more and enjoy herself a little longer.
"Let's go for a walk on the beach tomorrow."
Shen Nanxing stretched out his long arm and pulled Jiang Nian'an into his arms, chatting with her casually.
Some things are better investigated personally to put your mind at ease.
"Yes, but we need to go to the Yun family first to bring Xiao Zi back. We should also call Second Brother and Third Brother."
Jiang Nian'an looked up at Shen Nanxing, a genuine smile on her face.
She missed the days when the four of them acted together.
"Okay, whatever you say!"
Seeing the two people so affectionate and completely uninterested, Qiao Huaxi couldn't help herself.
"Cough~"
She cleared her throat and said awkwardly, "Before you arrived, Brother Nanchuan was perfectly mentally sound."
He only has…”
At this point, Qiao Huaxi glared at Shen Nanxing with some resentment, "She only becomes like this when she sees him."
"You're not allowed to glare at my brother!"
Having finally gotten a grilled sausage from Xiao Longzhan, Shen Nanchuan was about to share it with Shen Nanxing when he saw Qiao Huaxi glaring at him. Without thinking, he stepped in front of Shen Nanxing.
Qiao Huaxi suddenly felt a heart attack and couldn't speak: "..."
"Fine, fine, you brothers are true love, I was just an accident, okay?"
Qiao Huaxi turned and left in anger, but her repeated turning back revealed her true intentions.
Come and comfort me!
Those four words were written clearly on her face.
Shen Nanchuan instinctively chased after him.
"I'm sorry, I was too harsh!"
He held her hand tightly. "Don't run around. What if you get hurt?"
Qiao Huaxi snorted, "Anyway, you don't care about me, so what's it to you whether I run away or not?"
"I care!"
Shen Nanchuan was unhappy with her words and forcefully pulled her into his arms, saying, "I'll be sad if you get hurt."
"real?"
Qiao Huaxi was secretly overjoyed, but she tried her best to maintain a cold demeanor.
Since returning to Beijing, her brother Nanchuan seems to have reverted to his old self.
This is how he loves her, and this is how she loves him.
