After Zhan Siyu parked the car, the group got out.
Upon seeing the newcomer, the hostess immediately went over and led him into the venue.
As newcomers and from a relatively unknown organization, they were seated at the very back of the banquet hall.
However, none of them cared; they were just there to go through the motions and find out the latest news.
However, the more you try to keep a low profile, the more someone will prevent you from doing so.
As soon as Li Jie and Zhou Muyang entered the banquet hall, they saw their former best friend.
"Muyang, that woman over there is my best friend. I haven't seen her in a long time. I'll go say hello."
Zhou Muyang was surprised that his woman knew someone here, but considering that most people who came here were not ordinary people, he thought it would be good to make some acquaintances. He instructed her, "Go ahead, but don't cause me any trouble. This is not a place where you can act recklessly. It would be bad if someone caught you doing something wrong."
"Yeah, don't worry, I'm not brainless, unless I'm tired of living."
"Good to know, go ahead."
After receiving permission, Li Jie walked straight over.
"Wanwan, it's been a long time. I didn't expect to run into you here. It seems we are really destined to meet."
Looking at the person who suddenly appeared, Nan Xiangwan thought to himself, "As expected, evil people live a long life. Look at how well he's living, with a ruddy complexion. Villains really do live a long time."
When Nan Haochen saw Li Jie, he didn't say anything, but he was thinking to himself, "How come this woman is still alive? Does she still want to leech off my older sister? I wonder if my older sister will lose her mind again."
After a moment of surprise, Nan Xiangwan said with a forced smile, "I didn't expect to run into you here. You seem to be doing well. Are you at Xiangyang Base?"
"How did you know I was facing the sun?" Li Jie asked suspiciously.
"Ahem, didn't you come with the young master from Xiangyang Base? How could I not have guessed? But you're really something, to have such an important person on your list. Congratulations."
Zhan Siyu sat aside listening to their conversation. When he heard about Xiangyang Base, he guessed what was going on. It seemed that the woman in front of him was his wife's number one enemy, since his wife didn't know many women.
"Wanwan, I'm just lucky. By the way, where are you living now? If you can't make ends meet, come with me. After all, my man has a say in the base."
Seeing Li Jie's endless boasting, Nan Xiangwan said somewhat irritably, "Hehe, no need. My husband is the base commander of Zhan Nan. I would be so foolish as to ask my wife to go beg for food from you."
"What? You're married?" Li Jie's exclamation instantly attracted the attention of many people nearby.
Nan Xiangwan was suddenly surrounded by onlookers and felt like killing Li Jie. It's just a wedding, what's the big deal?
"Look, this is my husband, Zhan Siyu, the base commander of Zhan Nan. Is there a problem?"
Zhan Siyu, who had been called out, suddenly spoke up, saying, "Hello, I am Wanwan's lover." After saying that, he sat back down, showing no intention of talking to Li Jie any further.
When Li Jie saw Nan Xiangwan's lover, her eyes lit up, and she was also extremely jealous. Why was the man she had chosen not as good-looking as the one in front of her? Not only was he good-looking, but he was also the base commander. Zhou Muyang was at most the second-in-command at the base, and he didn't have any real power. She had to serve him with utmost carefree devotion every day, while Nan Xiangwan lived a much more carefree life than her. Why was that?
Seeing Li Jie's gaze, Nan Xiangwan knew what she was thinking. After all, this woman's jealousy was practically overflowing, and it couldn't be more obvious.
"Alright, I've said goodbye. You should go back and be with your man. You can see him again sometime."
When Li Jie heard Nan Xiangwan's words, she knew he was trying to get rid of her. In order not to embarrass herself, she had no choice but to leave resentfully, thinking that she would suppress him one day.
Seeing that the annoying person had finally left, Nan Haochen said, "Sis, stay away from this woman in the future. She has a wicked heart and a jealous look on her face."
"Okay, I'll listen to my brother and stay away from him from now on."
"Yes, that's right, otherwise she might suck our blood again."
Nan Xiangwan found it somewhat amusing. Her younger brother still disliked her as much as ever, but this time, even without him saying anything, she would stay far away. Of course, she would wait until she got her revenge.
Let her run wild for a while longer.
When Li Jie returned to Zhou Muyang's side, her expression returned to normal, showing no trace of her disgusting demeanor just moments before. It can only be said that no woman can match her ability to change her expression.
"How was your chat with your friend? Which base were you from?"
Hearing Zhou Muyang's question, Li Jie, despite feeling uncomfortable, smiled and replied, "My best friend is now the wife of the base commander of Zhan Nan Base. I hadn't heard of her before, so it must be a newly established base." She finished with a look of disdain.
However, though the speaker meant no harm, the listener took it to heart: "You mean someone from Zhan Nan?"
"Yes, is there a problem?"
Haha, this is a big problem. Although this base is newly established, its reputation has already spread far and wide. Only this woman who never leaves her house doesn't know this.
"Did you know that Zhannan is now known as the Second Granary?"
"Huh? When did this happen? How come I had no idea?"
Zhou Muyang looked at the woman beside him and thought she was really useless. It seemed he would have to let her go out more in the future. She didn't know anything about such important news. Sure enough, his father was right. She couldn't help at all. However, thinking that no suitable woman had appeared yet, he had to suppress his irritation and said, "I think you should go out more in the future. Also, if you can make friends with that friend of yours, you should. She is the wife of the base commander of Zhan Nan. You can't just climb up to her anytime."
After the man said that, Li Jie knew everything, but this only made her more and more unhappy.
"Is it really as incredible as you say? A second granary? They have a lot of grain?"
"That's how the news came about. So since you know them, you'd better get on their good side. We might need to exchange some food with them from their base."
"Yes, I understand."
At this moment, Li Jie was filled with resentment. Why was she always inferior to that XJR? She couldn't compare before the apocalypse, and she was still overshadowed by her after the apocalypse. She was so angry, but in order not to appear too incompetent in front of her man, she had no choice but to swallow her anger and prove that she was still useful. Otherwise, she would be dumped by this man sooner or later.
Having lived through the apocalypse for so long, she knew all too well that people without ability were useless. No matter how well this man treated her, she would be dumped sooner or later if he met someone more capable than her. She would never allow such a thing to happen. If he dared to do that, she wouldn't mind having the Xiangyang Base replace him.
