Chapter 16 Mom, Let Liu Jie Try
In the surveillance video, Liu Jie felt very hungry after discussing with Li Xiaoya.
After drinking a lot of water in the kitchen, I didn't feel any relief. I could only lie down on the sofa, hoping to temporarily forget about my hunger after falling asleep.
When Li Xiaoya saw Liu Jie again, she went straight into her bedroom without hesitation and woke up Li Shanyang and Zhang Lu.
After telling them what Liu Jie had said, the two men naturally became angry and said they would go out and settle the score with Liu Jie, but they were stopped by Li Xiaoya.
"Dad, Mom, when I went out with him, I saw that fat guy seemed to be very interested in Liu Jie."
"Why don't we go ask him if he likes men? If so, we can tie up Liu Jie and exchange him for some food."
Li Xiaoya came up with this guess when she recalled what she saw outside: the fat man's eyes seemed to be lingering on Liu Jie's butt.
Although Liu Jie treats her well on weekdays, Li Xiaoya trusts her parents more when facing danger.
After hearing this, Li Shanyang and Zhang Lu thought their daughter's idea was a good one. Not only could it reduce one mouth to feed, but they could also exchange food for the heartless guy.
The two men hurried out of the door, but after a while they came back with a rope in their hands and a smile on their faces.
"He really likes men."
"And they said if we send Liu Jie there, they'll give us a box of instant noodles!"
Li Xiaoya was very excited when she heard this.
I didn't expect that a man could be exchanged for a box of instant noodles. What a good deal.
She quickly helped Zhang Lu and the others tie up Liu Jie. However, after Liu Jie woke up, Li Xiaoya took a few steps back and pretended to be innocent, with tears in her eyes.
Meng Ci stopped watching after this point. Li Xiaoya’s acting skills are quite good.
But come to think of it, if his acting was bad, wouldn't Liu Jie have discovered who he was long ago?
As for the food that Liu Jie hid outside the kitchen balcony, it was actually Meng Ci who found that person’s WeChat and told him about it!
Meng Ci just felt that the end of the world was too boring and wanted to watch a show.
In the surveillance video, Li Xiaoya and her family of three each made two packets of instant noodles at once and ate them with relish, even drinking up the soup.
"Ah! So satisfied." Li Xiaoya touched her belly.
Li Shanyang and Zhang Lu also looked very satisfied.
"If I had known earlier, I should have kept Meng Ci as well, so that the two of us could have exchanged more food." Zhang Lu couldn't help but speak.
Li Shanyang's face darkened when he heard Zhang Lu's words.
"I still can't get through to that loser's phone? What's the use of him!"
Li Xiaoya also felt that if Meng Ci was here, Liu Jie would not have to go to exchange for food, and she would have one more person to protect herself.
After expressing their feelings, several people were afraid that the other party would steal the remaining instant noodles, so three of them grabbed the box and refused to let go.
The final result of the dispute was that the remaining 18 bags of instant noodles were divided into six bags for each person to keep safely.
Meng Ci found it funny when he saw them holding the instant noodles tightly in their arms and looking at them as if they were enemies.
It turns out that family ties are still vulnerable in the face of these things.
This is good, he can kill a few people without having to do anything, which is not bad.
On the sixth day of the heavy rain, Meng Ci was awakened by the sound of an engine. When he went to the balcony, he found that someone had put a speedboat in the water.
Three days ago, the water flooded into the first floor.
The residents on the first floor were unable to be rescued and had to move upstairs.
This community has only been open for a short time, so there are many vacant houses.
So they tried every possible means to pry open the house that had no one responding and moved in.
Because it was far away and it was raining non-stop, Meng Ci couldn't see the people on the speedboat clearly.
But based on the plot, the people on the speedboat are probably the male protagonist and his friends in the book.
The male protagonist Si Chen is a university athlete. He and several classmates joined a local rescue team with sufficient flood rescue equipment.
I guess some of them were so hungry that they went out to find something to eat.
Meng Ci was not in a hurry to go. There was a lot of food in the space anyway. Even if he went out to buy food for free, food would not be the first choice, but other things.
For example, gas.
Before the apocalypse, Meng Ci didn't dare to buy too many gas cylinders. Not only did he need an ID card, but what if he bought too many and the police came to his door?
Meng Ci had already planned the route to the gas company and was just waiting for the power outage to start implementing the plan.
"Dear citizens, please note that the next few days will be extremely heavy rains that are rare in a century. Please do not go out unless necessary."
The female reporter on TV was initially on location, but as the rain got heavier, she moved back into the studio, and Meng Ci could clearly see the fatigue on the female reporter's face.
Instead of watching TV, Meng Ci turned on the surveillance camera.
"Mom, they are not going out to find food."
Li Xiaoya and Zhang Lu stood in front of the window, watching the male protagonist and his speedboat going farther and farther away.
"It's possible." Zhang Lu nodded, and then looked at Li Xiaoya, "Yaya, you are so beautiful."
Li Xiaoya was puzzled when she was suddenly praised by Zhang Lu.
"Do you think they, a group of men, will feel lonely?" Zhang Lu watched the speedboat leave as if she had seen gold.
"Mom, what do you mean?" Li Xiaoya understood instantly.
"Let's see which floor they go to when they come back. Put on your skirt, put on some weak makeup, and knock on the door."
Li Xiaoya was a smart person. After hearing this, she understood what she meant and quickly went back to the house to start dressing up.
Meng Ci sneered. This Li Xiaoya was really cold-hearted. She had just sent Liu Jie to someone else's bed, and now she was going to sleep in someone else's bed again.
However, Meng Ci was not worried that Li Xiaoya would succeed. After all, Si Chen had a lover, and he was a man.
Without paying any more attention to what was on the surveillance camera, Meng Ci went to the kitchen and cooked a pot of tomato beef porridge, fried a plate of shredded potatoes, and made two pancakes with the electric baking pan, intending to eat them with the shredded potatoes.
“Bang, bang, bang!”
When Meng Ci heard the knock on the door, he immediately took the knife and looked through the peephole vigilantly, and saw Shen Que's handsome face.
After placing the knife on the shoe cabinet beside him, Meng Ci opened the door.
"Is there anything wrong?" Meng Ci asked.
Shen Que handed Meng Ci a bag of things, "This is the food I found last night. I'll give you some."
Meng Ci didn't answer, "No, I still have food, you can keep it for yourself."
Meng Ci often wondered if Chen Que was not in a good mental state.
It's already come to this, he should just keep the food for himself, why take it out?
He is not afraid that he is a bad guy, because he will be the first person to be killed.
"I'll find a way to find it myself when the time comes." Meng Ci added.
Shen Que insisted, "It's raining heavily outside now, so you'd better not go out easily."
"I have a rubber boat in my room. If you go out and don't have any tools, you can use mine."
"Or we can go out together and take care of it."
When Meng Ci heard Shen Que tell him not to go out easily, he became dissatisfied.
They are both men, and Shen can indeed go out, so why can't I go?
"Take your things and if someone knocks on the door from behind, don't open it easily."
Shen Que stuffed the things into Meng Ci's hands, and was about to leave after giving him instructions.
Looking at Shen Que's back, Meng Ci spoke.
"Well, I made breakfast, do you want to come and eat?"
Meng Ci regretted it after he finished speaking.
Didn’t we agree not to have any contact with this person? Why can’t I control myself?
