Wang Feifei woke up late at night. She seemed to be sleeping more since she got pregnant. Xu Neng had already left, and it had been a long time since she had felt this quiet around her.
She gently stroked her lower abdomen, and for the first time, she felt that having a child by her side was quite nice...
After Xu Neng and his team arrived safely at the base, they set aside a huge space for the supplies.
Soon all the boxes were opened, revealing that their warehouse contained not only fill lights, but also a complete set of other equipment:
Soil troughs, supports, potting soil, and a lot of vegetable seeds...
Fortunately, we were wise to move everything here.
Xiao Gao squatted on the ground, rummaging through the vegetable seeds in the box, then looked at the things piled around him and was stunned:
"So all this trouble was for vegetable farming?"
"It's not just vegetables, we also need to grow pasture. The next deal with the steel mill will be calves."
Looking at the supplies, Xu Neng felt much more at ease, as everything was progressing smoothly.
The food crisis will be resolved soon.
"Xiao Gao, find some people with planting experience in the next few days, the more professional the better, so that we can start planting as soon as possible. All resources of the base will be prioritized to support the planting area."
"Yes, I'll start tomorrow! However, Mr. Xu, I've been searching for a long time but haven't been able to find any pasture seeds. If we're going to raise cattle, we'll definitely need them. I'm afraid we'll have to ask the livestock farms."
"Yes, I'll contact them. Once everything is ready, we won't need to rely on anyone anymore..."
Xu Neng and Xiao Gao worked until 3:30 a.m. before finally finishing checking and arranging all the supplies and falling into a deep sleep, exhausted...
Inside the steel plant, the night patrol team had completed its third round of patrols. The living quarters were quiet, and everyone was asleep.
Tan Jiaojiao suddenly shuddered and abruptly opened her eyes...
She was awakened by a nightmare!
She couldn't remember the details of the dream, only that before she woke up in a fright, she and her father were huddled in a cold corner, and the man in front of them was backlit, so she couldn't see his face at all.
He seemed to be saying something when suddenly he swung his arm, slashing open his father's throat, and scalding blood splattered onto Tan Jiaojiao's arm.
She screamed in terror, desperately covering her father's wound with her hands, and then the murderer, knife in hand, walked towards her...
Her eyes widened, but all she could see was the blood from the blade, dripping onto her feet. Overwhelmed by despair, she could no longer scream.
Tan Jiaojiao looked up, wanting to see who the murderer was, but his entire face was hidden in shadow...
She was only jolted awake by the pain when a blood-soaked knife plunged into her heart!
Tan Jiaojiao got up, panting heavily. The pain seemed like it had just happened a second ago, and her lungs felt like they were about to explode.
The dream felt so real; the face hidden in the shadows made her heart pound, and the darkness of the room only amplified her fear.
To quickly get rid of the nightmare, she turned on the light, and only in the bright light did she slowly calm down.
After calming down, I heard noises coming from my father's room...
Tan Jiaojiao suddenly remembered that dream, and feeling scared and worried, she could only walk over quietly.
It turned out that Dad wasn't there; only Chen Nian was in the room. He seemed to be in great pain, groaning intermittently.
By the light from the outer room, Tan Jiaojiao could vaguely see that his face was flushed, his brows were furrowed, and his breath was hot, as if he were being roasted over a fire.
"Looking like this... could it be that he has a fever?"
Reaching out to touch the man's forehead, it was indeed burning hot.
The most important thing now is to cool down, so she quickly fetched a basin of water, placed a wet towel on Chen Nian's forehead, and then lifted the blanket to dissipate the heat.
He was only wearing underwear under the covers...
Tan Jiaojiao was surprised by this scene and couldn't help but stare at it for a long time.
Whether it was due to excessive bleeding or some other reason, her body was unusually fair, which was exactly her type.
His body, radiating intense heat and a uniquely masculine scent, made Tan Jiaojiao blush.
At this moment, Chen Nian frowned, his head swayed slightly, and he took a deep breath, as if talking in his sleep:
"Jiaojiao, don't go, please don't go... You're all I have left... Jiaojiao..."
He kept calling out, his expression seemed to be in great pain, and his chest muscles were still heaving violently.
Tan Jiaojiao was moved for a moment, staring at the man for a long time. What was he dreaming about?
The man's expression grew increasingly pained, muttering, "I'm so hot, Jiaojiao, I feel so uncomfortable..." before slowly waking up...
The moment Chen Nian saw Tan Jiaojiao, tears welled up in his eyes. He struggled to hold back his sobs and asked breathlessly:
"Jiaojiao, is that you? Am I dreaming?"
Chen Nian used every trick in the book to lure Tan Jiaojiao closer step by step:
"It's so nice to see you when I wake up..."
Chen Nian suddenly grabbed her hand, his face full of reluctance:
"You should leave. We'll meet tonight. It'll be troublesome if your dad finds out."
Mentioning Lao Tan stirred up a rebellious feeling in Tan Jiaojiao's heart. She found the medicine and gave it to Chen Nian:
"He went on patrol tonight. You should take your medicine first and ignore him!"
"Okay, I'll listen to you, Jiaojiao."
After Chen Nian finished speaking, he struggled to get up. Tan Jiaojiao reached out to help him, and he knew his chance had come. He aimed directly at the woman's lips and kissed her...
This kiss confirmed Chen Nian's feelings and made Tan Jiaojiao even more determined in her relationship.
Unbeknownst to her, she had already fallen into a trap, becoming a crucial part of Chen Nian's revenge.
At this moment, Chen Nian was not about to let her go easily. He couldn't wait for Lao Tan's next patrol. He had to take this woman down quickly this time!
When Chen Nian kissed Tan Jiaojiao again, he gradually dissected and devoured this love-struck woman...
Old Tan felt uneasy all night. He had never felt this way during previous night patrols. He was really worried, so he made up an excuse to go home early.
It was already past four in the morning when he stepped into his house and sensed something was wrong. Why were the lights on?
Old Tan rushed to Jiao Jiao's room, but no one was there.
At that moment, strange noises came from his room...
His hands trembled as he pushed open the door, and in just one glance, he saw a scene he would never forget until his death:
Tan Jiaojiao was kneeling on Chen Nian's body, and the two were...
My mind went blank for a second!
