Chapter 51 Searching for Supplies



Jiang Yuan felt helpless. We're not stupid, why did we ruin someone else's door for no reason?

“Ask Jiang Yuan, he’s the one who broke it!” Ning Yanlan pushed the question onto Jiang Yuan.

"It's alright, it's alright!"

Upon hearing this, Li Xiang immediately waved her hand and said, "The door is already pretty much broken anyway, so let's just leave it broken to avoid having to take it apart!"

Jiang Yuan looked utterly dejected. "I just won a little, did they have to do this to me?"

"Sister Li, you're out of food at home, aren't you?" Jiang Yuan cleverly changed the subject.

Ning Yanlan shrank her neck and whispered, "Jiang Yuan ate the last bundle of noodles last night! I only had a small bite!"

"It's me again???" Jiang Yuan was speechless. "I'm just eating your leftovers!"

"The accident happened so suddenly that Xiaoxin and I didn't dare to go out, and we didn't have much food stored at home, so we ran out of food in just a few days!" Li Xiang sighed.

"Sister-in-law, we have some food here that hasn't been processed yet. Would you like to make do with it?" Ning Yanlan took out the supplies she had collected in Xujia Village from her storage ring, which included rice and meat.

Looking at the suddenly appearing pile of food, Li Xiang rubbed her eyes and said incredulously, "Sister Yanlan, did you conjure this up?"

"Haha, I'm not the creator, how could I conjure food out of thin air!" Ning Yanlan shook her head and laughed. "I had already collected this before, but I put it somewhere else."

"Is there really such a miraculous method?" Li Xiang had always stayed at home and had never seen such a supernatural power before.

“Sister-in-law will also have a storage ring in the future!” Ning Yanlan said.

"I'm just a housewife. It's enough for me to see Xiaoxin grow up safely! I don't dare to hope for anything else!" Li Xiang shook her head and said.

"Sister Li, please write down a list of your needs. Yanlan and I will try our best to get all these things for you on this trip!" Jiang Yuan said.

"Are you going out?" Li Xiang asked.

“Yes, there are some things that need to be taken care of!” Jiang Yuan nodded.

“But it’s so dangerous outside right now, it’s not safe for you to go out!” Li Xiang said worriedly.

"It's alright, Yanlan can take on several of them!" Jiang Yuan said dismissively, taking the opportunity to praise Ning Yanlan.

"No, no, no, Jiang Yuan can only take on a few!" Ning Yanlan started praising each other.

Just as Jiang Yuan was marveling at how sensible this woman was, Ning Yanlan added, "I usually take on a dozen or so!"

Jiang Yuan: "..."

I really believed your lies! The old saying is true: the prettier a woman is, the less reliable her words are.

Li Xiang was clearly taken aback by Ning Yanlan's sudden turn of events. "Yanlan, can you really take on more than a dozen people?"

Ning Yanlan smiled and didn't explain, "By the way, sister-in-law, don't call me by my name outside anymore, and don't tell anyone that we live here!"

"Don't worry, sister-in-law understands those things!" Li Xiang nodded. "Then I'll go make a list for you. If you can bring some back, please do so!"

"Okay!" Ning Yanlan said with a smile.

As Li Xiang went inside, Jiang Yuan put his arm around Ning Yanlan's shoulder and said with a smile, "What am I supposed to do about this, that I suddenly have a daughter out of nowhere?"

"Whose daughter is she!" Ning Yanlan lifted her heel and stomped on Jiang Yuan's shoe, then said fiercely, "Maybe she was your lover in a past life!"

"Don't you think so!" Ning Yanlan said forcefully, her voice becoming much louder.

"Ouch, big sister!" Jiang Yuan grimaced. He tried to pull his foot back, but Ning Yanlan turned around and stepped on him with both feet.

"You just said there's an extra daughter somewhere?" Ning Yanlan wrapped her arms around his neck, then stood on tiptoe and stomped on him in a tricky way.

"No, no, no, I don't have any daughter. You must have misheard me!" Jiang Yuan said with a look of 'regret.' "Even if she wanted to acknowledge me as her father, I wouldn't dare to accept her!"

"Hmm? Still thinking about your daughter!" Ning Yanlan glanced at him, her tone full of threat.

Jiang Yuan was completely exasperated. "You were the one who made the bet that if I lost, I'd call you 'Dad,' and now you're threatening me about whether I have a daughter!" he thought. "How could I possibly want a daughter? At my age, all I think about is women!"

"Hmph!" Ning Yanlan finally got off Jiang Yuan. "While it's still early, let's go out and find a computer to read the data! Then we'll collect some supplies, and afterwards you just stay here quietly until the awakening is successful!"

"Me? And what about you?" Jiang Yuan understood the implication in Ning Yanlan's words.

"Of course I'll go with you!" Ning Yanlan said without hesitation, though a hint of ambiguity still flashed in her eyes.

Jiang Yuan noticed the change in Ning Yanlan's expression, but didn't point it out, simply saying, "Alright then."

Ning Yanlan: "Then once my sister-in-law makes the list, we'll head to the nearest computer mall. But I heard it's been taken over by monsters, so we need to be prepared!"

“The monsters in the city shouldn’t be that scary! The two of us can handle them!” Jiang Yuan said.

This area is designated as a safe zone because it is not within the territory of the Holy Spirit Temple, but this only means that there is no Holy Spirit, not that there are no monsters. Monsters that have been awakened are just like humans; they are also living beings of this world.

The two waited for a while before Li Xiang came out with a piece of paper. "Yanlan, these are the lists I've prepared. Just do your best to collect them, don't force yourself!"

"Then sister-in-law, take good care of Xiaoxin at home. We'll be back as soon as possible!" Ning Yanlan instructed.

"Yes!" Li Xiang nodded.

Jiang Yuan and Ning Yanlan then set off, but before leaving, Ning Yanlan applied some makeup and changed her appearance before heading off.

"The warlord force currently dominating the South City is the Crimson Blood Army, which was formed by integrating all the surrounding military forces. Its supreme commander had the rank of colonel before the apocalypse. Although the Crimson Blood Army is still serving the country on the surface, it now seems to be showing a tendency to establish itself as a kingdom."
