Ye Mofeng fell silent.
When Ruan Tian turned around and saw Ye Mofeng, she swore she fell silent.
Her hand was still on Gu Yi's head, and the smile on her face looked particularly kind.
Ruan Tian awkwardly turned her head away, secretly trying to pull her left hand back.
However, Ye Mofeng's gaze remained fixed on Ruan Tian's left hand for a long time without being drawn away.
Even though Ruan Tian had already hidden her left hand behind her back, Ye Mofeng still stared intently at the hand she had hidden behind her back, as if he wanted to stare a hole through it.
Under such gazes, Ruan Tian, for some reason, suddenly had a brain fart and immediately explained:
"Gu Yi and I didn't do anything. We're completely innocent!"
But her relationship with Gu Yi was purely platonic, so it would have been fine if she hadn't added that sentence. But Ruan Tian insisted on adding it.
The moment she said it, the situation changed completely, immediately becoming a story about something between her and Gu Yi.
Ye Mofeng didn't say anything more. Instead, he shifted his gaze from Ruan Tian to Gu Yi.
If Ruan Tian can't tell, how could he not?
Gu Yi was definitely feigning helplessness just now; this was not something Ye Mofeng was making up.
How could someone who can read minds not understand human nature?
He probably realized by now that Ruan Tian is very kind-hearted, so when he's in front of her, pretending to be pitiful is more effective than anything else.
Ye Mofeng walked over directly, pulled Ruan Tian up from the ground, and dragged her back a couple of steps to keep her away from Gu Yi.
"Didn't I tell you before not to get close to Gu Yi? Why don't you listen to me?"
Gu Yi poses a significant threat. Ruan Tian is too kind-hearted and, after being deceived by Gu Yi's appearance, is very likely to lean more towards him.
This is not what Ye Mofeng wants to see. If she were a good person, he would certainly support Ruan Tian in getting close to her, but Gu Yi is just too cunning.
Seeing Ye Mofeng speaking ill of him to his face, Gu Yi didn't react much. He seemed to have been healed by Ruan Tian's delicious food, and his aggressiveness was not so strong.
Ruan Tian took Ye Mofeng's hand, gently shook it twice, and comforted him with a smile:
"Actually, I think Gu Yi is pretty good. She's not as scary as we imagined, don't you think?"
Upon hearing this, Gu Yi nodded in agreement, indicating that Ruan Tian was absolutely right.
Ye Mofeng didn't think so; his brows were furrowed so deeply they could trap a fly.
"Have you been bewitched by him? His superpower is mind reading, didn't you know that?"
Ruan Tian really didn't know that Gu Yi's special ability was mind reading.
Seeing the surprised expression on Ruan Tian's face, Ye Mofeng immediately realized that this was truly the first time Ruan Tian had ever known what Gu Yi's special ability was.
“It’s my fault,” Ye Mofeng said, raising his hand to his forehead in frustration. “I should have told you beforehand.”
The Red Moon Tide is coming soon, and he has been busy with the construction of the temporary base, so he hasn't had much time to spend with Ruan Tian.
They didn't even tell Ruan Tian about something so important beforehand.
"I'll definitely tell you in advance next time."
Ruan Tian didn't take it to heart, and waved her hand with a smile, "What's the big deal? It's not a big deal at all."
While Ye Mofeng and Ruan Tian were talking, Gu Yi remained silent the entire time, showing no intention of interrupting.
This sight caught Ruan Tian's eye, and for some reason, she felt like she was seeing a left-behind child.
Ye Mofeng tried to pull Ruan Tian towards the door, but Ruan Tian shook her head and pulled Ye Mofeng down. The three of them formed a small circle and sat together.
Ruan Tian explained, "Anyway, the Red Moon Tide is coming soon, so why don't we get together and discuss what to do next?"
Ye Mofeng had a cold face, and it was clear that he disliked Gu Yi very much.
"What is there for me to say to him? There is nothing to say."
But Ruan Tian reached out and patted Ye Mofeng's shoulder twice reassuringly, whispering:
"Don't be so stingy. I think Gu Yi is pretty amazing."
And the Red Moon Tide is coming soon, plus Gu Yi is a great help to our camp, don't you think?"
After hearing what Ruan Tian said, Ye Mofeng felt that what she said made a lot of sense, and the Red Moon Tide was coming soon.
The longer it goes on, the more severe the red moon tide will become.
Having an extra source of assistance is a good thing in itself.
"Alright."
Ye Mofeng took a deep breath and suppressed the anger in his chest.
At the same time, Ye Mofeng also became curious about the situation in City A, and could take this opportunity to ask Gu Yi about it.
"Gu Yi, can you tell me what the situation is like in City A?"
Upon hearing this, Gu Yi felt there was nothing wrong with saying it.
He had just finished eating and was in a very good mood. Hearing Ye Mofeng ask this question, he felt he could answer it.
"What about the situation in City A?"
You've probably heard that before the apocalypse, City A was the central location, and all the good things were sent to City A, including resources and intelligence.
Even before the apocalypse arrived, some people knew that an impending doomsday crisis was about to erupt.
City A had prior knowledge of the situation, so it prepared a large amount of supplies, all of which were stored in the basement.
Moreover, City A had prepared a huge freshwater reserve in advance.
Even before the apocalypse began, irrelevant people had already been driven out of City A, precisely to prevent others from taking up too much of City A's resources.
After Gu Yi explained it to her, Ruan Tian immediately understood. Because she had the ability to cook delicious food, she had more security than others in whatever she did.
But it's different for others.
As ordinary people in the apocalypse, if their awakened superpowers are not powerful enough, they will basically face a very difficult situation in the apocalypse.
Ruan Tian naturally understood this principle, so the powerful and wealthy in City A were doing this to monopolize funds and resources.
This made Ruan Tian curious: "Then tell me, how long can City A's resources last them?"
Upon hearing this, Gu Yi rubbed his chin. He knew a lot, and slowly said:
"I think that if we consider the current population of City A, their supplies are enough to last them for a hundred years."
Having gotten the answer she wanted, Ruan Tian gasped in shock. She hadn't expected City A to have such abundant resources, to the point that it was frightening.
Despite having so many resources, the people in City A still didn't want to share them with others.
"I never expected that they would have so many resources, but instead of letting others use them, they chose to keep these resources firmly in their own hands."
Gu Yi, on the contrary, could understand the thoughts of these people, including Ye Mofeng.
The education they both received was the most elite education.
If we compare this world to a game, many ordinary people are the most basic cannon fodder, and also the most basic NPCs.
Their purpose in living in this game afterward is to serve the players who spend money on the game.
Gu Yi chuckled lightly, his eyes filled with mockery, and said:
"There are even a great many weapons, simply because we have too many."
In a post-apocalyptic environment, to avoid distributing resources among too many people, it's natural to become a little selfish.
Therefore, a very bold idea gradually formed in Ruan Tian's mind.
It's estimated that even before the apocalypse officially began, the powerful and wealthy in City A had already made their plans...
They plan to turn City A into a paradise that belongs only to them.
