Even though she was slapped in front of so many people, Zhuo Yiyi did not get angry or cry.
She seemed like she was used to being beaten. Although she looked aggrieved, she didn't say much. She just lowered her head and silently tidied the bed.
What she didn't notice was that the man with glasses and the man with long hair lying opposite her were staring at her hands covered with jeweled rings, their eyes full of greed.
The long-haired man and the bespectacled man looked at each other and exchanged a knowing look. Then the bespectacled man stood up and took out two palm-sized sand rattan cakes from under the pillow. He took the two cracked cakes and walked over to Zhuo Yiyi.
He walked up to Xie Xiangjun and Zhuo Yiyi, grinned at them and said, "Hello, you just moved in, and you haven't had time to get your food for the day yet, right? Eat these two pieces of sand rattan cakes first, and clean up after you're full!"
Looking at the two cracked sand rattan cakes handed over by the man with glasses and the hand with dirt between the fingernails holding the sand rattan cakes, Zhuo Yiyi frowned with some disgust.
——This is too disgusting! You want to eat this kind of thing!
Resisting the urge to tell the man with glasses to get out, Zhuo Yiyi shook her head and replied coldly: "No need, we don't need it, you can keep it for yourself."
The man with glasses was frustrated and his face darkened, but he didn't say anything. He just took the sand vine cake and returned to his seat in a sullen manner.
Zhuo Yiyi made her bed and felt a little hungry. She rummaged through her suitcase and took out a small bag of compressed biscuits and a bag of pickled pepper-flavored mustard tubers.
She tore open the package of mustard tuber, and the strong and spicy smell of pickled peppers immediately filled the air, attracting the attention of everyone in the room.
Seeing the pickled mustard tuber and compressed biscuits in Zhuo Yiyi's hand, the group of people swallowed subconsciously - they had not eaten normal food for a long time, and most people could only survive on sand rattan cakes. Rice and flour were luxuries, not to mention compressed biscuits and pickled mustard tubers, which were almost extinct additives.
These things may not have been eaten by anyone before the natural disaster, but now they are delicacies that cannot be bought even with money!
Looking at the pickled mustard tuber and compressed biscuits in Zhuo Yiyi's hands and smelling the pickled peppers in the air that stimulated her nasal cavity, everyone in the room was envious and their eyes were wide open.
Seeing that everyone in the room was looking at her with envy, Zhuo Yiyi couldn't suppress the pride in her heart - she knew that she was different from these refugees.
These refugees came here to survive, but she didn't. She just came here to keep warm!
Seeing Lin Mai looking at her with envy, Zhuo Yiyi raised her head like a winner.
She squinted at Lin Mai and said in a condescending tone: "What are you looking at? You have no right to look! You damn girl, who told you not to change seats with me!"
Lin Mai swallowed his saliva and said through gritted teeth: "I, I don't want it! It's just compressed biscuits and mustard tuber, it's so chewy and hard, it tastes terrible, I won't eat it even if it's free! If you have the guts, bring out something delicious!"
Zhuo Yiyi seemed to be irritated by Lin Mai's words. She threw away the compressed biscuits and pickled mustard tubers in her hands, turned around and rummaged through the suitcase, and took out two cans of meat and canned fruit.
——In fact, they originally had a lot of food. Xie Xiangjun worked for a government department and was in charge of supplies, making a lot of money.
Unfortunately, most of the food was lost by Xie Xiangjun. A few days ago, Xie Xiangjun was so desperate that he gambled the last two boxes of energy bars and canned beef in the house. Zhuo Yiyi wanted to stop him, but was slapped by Xie Xiangjun several times.
The little bit of food now was secretly saved by Zhuo Yiyi.
Zhuo Yiyi proudly raised the can in her hand and showed off to Lin Mai: "See, you little bitch, what I have is food, but you can't afford it! You are just a cheap life eating sand rattan cakes! Pathetic refugee!"
