Chapter 20 Brother Jie, blame me if you want to blame me
It is clearly written in the book that on the third day of the heavy rain, the government began sending volunteers to deliver food and drinks.
There were no restrictions such as requiring an ID card, and they gave out as much food as possible for fear of causing panic.
It was not until half a month after the heavy rain that grain was delivered according to population, because most of the granaries were flooded and the roads were blocked due to the heavy rain.
Why is the food delivery now four days later than described in the book? And why is it delivered based on population from the beginning?
This is really far from what is described in the book.
Could it be that because I came in, some changes occurred?
I just don’t know if this change is big enough, and whether it will cause the end of the world to last longer.
Meng Ci began to think that if the apocalypse lasted longer, the food he stored in the space might not be enough.
So Meng Ci planned to find an opportunity to stock up some more.
After entering the house, close the outermost iron sliding door and lock the security door.
The TV surveillance was on all the time, so when Meng Ci came in, he heard cheers coming from inside.
"Dad, Mom, we finally have something to eat."
Li Xiaoya was so excited that she almost cried.
The heavy rain lasted for six days, and she felt like she had not had a full meal even for a single day.
Thinking that there would be food tomorrow, Li Xiaoya ran into the bedroom that she had locked herself and took out three packs of instant noodles hidden under the quilt.
“I’m never going to diet again.”
Li Xiaoya was boiling water while talking to Li Shanyang and Zhang Lu who also came in with instant noodles.
Naturally, they both thought so too.
Each person took a soup bowl and boiled two pots of water before they made the instant noodles.
Li Shanyang had a big appetite and quickly finished a bowl of noodles, then lay down on the sofa in satisfaction.
Although Li Xiaoya and Zhang Lu had been hungry for a long time, they usually ate little, so they didn't even finish half of the instant noodles they had prepared.
If it were a few days ago, they would have forced themselves to finish it.
But now that the government is providing food, they naturally won’t do that.
"Dad, Mom, the broadcast said that food would be distributed according to population. Should we go and bring Liu Jie back?"
Li Xiaoya suddenly thought of Liu Jie, who had been sent to the fat man's place for two days.
Of course, Li Xiaoya wanted to get Liu Jie back not out of kindness.
It's just that I feel that there is one less bootlicker around me and I feel a little uncomfortable with it.
Zhang Lu nodded, "Of course!"
"That fat guy has hoarded so much food, of course we can't let him get more food."
Li Shanyang also nodded.
"That kid Liu Jie is still somewhat useful, unlike that bitch Meng Ci, who is completely useless."
When mentioning Meng Ci, Li Shanyang gritted his teeth.
Of course, Meng Ci had heard a lot of insults from them in the past two days, so he was no longer surprised.
When Zhang Lu heard Meng Ci's name, he felt so angry that his teeth itched.
"Humph, judging from how he looks, I'm afraid he's been played to death by someone."
"It's better to die in the fun, so as not to be hated by others while alive."
Li Shanyang touched his pocket. He didn't even have cigarettes to eat. He had been craving for cigarettes for a long time.
Meng Ci touched his heart and felt a sharp pain when he heard these words.
"What's hurting!" Meng Ci touched his chest.
"Don't you already know who Li Shanyang is? Why is it so painful?"
Meng Ci had a blank expression on his face. After the pain in his heart eased, he took out a piece of strawberry cake from the space, made a cup of green tea, sat on the carpet, and happily enjoyed his afternoon tea.
And in the surveillance video, Li Xiaoya took advantage of the arguing between Li Shanyang and others and went out.
Meng Ci guessed that he should have gone to find Liu Jie.
Sure enough, half an hour later, Meng Ci saw Li Xiaoya walking in, supporting Liu Jie, whose face was pale.
Zhang Lu even pretended to go up and help Li Xiaoya.
However, Liu Jie simply waved Zhang Lu's hand away, and then looked at Zhang Lu and Li Shanyang with resentment.
It's all her fault!
If it weren't for Zhang Lu, how could I have suffered such a great humiliation.
What are you still pretending for here!
Zhang Lu spat on the ground.
"If I didn't want to tire Yaya, do you think I would be willing to help you?"
"You're just a guy whose ass got fucked up by someone, why are you still so arrogant?"
"When the rainstorm is over, stay away from our family."
At first, Zhang Lu agreed to let Li Xiaoya and Liu Jie play together, just because she saw that he had a good family background.
Now, Meng Ci might be dead, so wouldn’t the company and property under his name be theirs?
Zhang Lu is now fantasizing about how she will get money after the rainstorm ends.
Liu Jie is naturally not worthy of their family.
In other words, her daughter was kind-hearted and just hoped that he would leave on his own after the rainstorm ended.
Otherwise, don't blame yourself when the time comes.
Li Xiaoya supported Liu Jie, "Mom, you are not allowed to say that about Brother Jie."
Zhang Lu snorted, "Why do you still want to be with a butt-selling girl?"
"If you dare, I will break your legs."
Li Xiaoya pursed her lips and said aggrievedly: "Mom, please don't say anything more."
"Brother Jie, after all, has kept you full for several days, hasn't he?"
Then Li Xiaoya helped Liu Jie into her bedroom.
Zhang Lu continued to push him aggressively, "Our current status is different from before, so don't focus on him anymore."
"You should learn what a lady from the upper class is like these few days, so as not to embarrass yourself later."
But Li Xiaoya had already helped Liu Jie into her bedroom and slammed the door shut.
Zhang Lu was furious and pushed Li Shanyang.
"Why don't you take care of her!"
"Whatever she does!"
Li Shanyang yawned, changed to a comfortable position and continued to sleep.
Meng Ci found it ridiculous to see that these people were still dreaming of taking the Meng family's property. They didn't even consider whether they would live to inherit it.
Meng Ci pressed the remote control and switched the surveillance to Li Xiaoya's room.
Li Xiaoya helped Liu Jie onto the bed.
"Brother Jie, my mother has a sharp tongue but a soft heart, don't blame her!"
Liu Jie lay on the bed and said nothing.
"Brother Jie, blame me if you want to. It's me who has no ability to stop their behavior."
"I don't blame you!"
Liu Jie shook his head. He knew that Li Shanyang and Zhang Lu were the strong couple, while Li Xiaoya was weak and would definitely not be able to defeat them.
"Brother Jie, you are so nice!" Li Xiaoya smiled easily.
"Brother Jie, take a rest first. I'll go boil some water and wipe your body."
Looking at Liu Jie's expression, he seemed to be very grateful to Li Xiaoya. He probably already regarded her as the white moonlight and cinnabar mole in his heart.
Li Xiaoya was busy wiping Liu Jie's body, and even took the medicine from the fat man and applied it to Liu Jie.
After Liu Jie took off his upper body clothes, purple wounds of varying sizes were revealed, covering his chest and back, and running down his trouser waist.
It seems that the fat guy is quite cruel.
I thought of Meng Ci in the book who was sent to the fat man and stayed there for five days. When he came back, he was skin and bones. In the end, he was thrown down from the bottom of the building and died in the flood without a burial place.
Meng Ci felt that Liu Jie deserved it.
The alarm clock rang at 5 p.m. Meng Ci stopped watching the surveillance camera and went to cook a pot of rice, stir-fry two dishes, and then sat at the table to drink them leisurely.
At eight o'clock, as Meng Ci's alarm clock rang again, the whole city fell into darkness.
After a while, the people, who were already frightened and uneasy because of the heavy rain and had been hungry for several days, began to make loud noises and there were even sounds of smashing things.
Meng Ci took out a diving suit, put it on, and went downstairs quietly.
