Anna was surprised that Lu Yuan had conditions.
She wiped away her tears, pondered for a moment, and finally nodded.
Without saying a word, Lu Yuan continued walking forward.
Anna followed closely behind.
What just happened has had a tremendous impact on her young mind.
Lu Yuan ignored the other person's current feelings. In this apocalyptic world, one must learn to become strong.
Otherwise, she will never grow up just by relying on other people's comfort.
Because Lu Yuan knew that Anna seemed to be much stronger mentally than before after this incident.
Walking behind Lu Yuan, Anna continued to reflect on her actions, following closely behind him like a primary school student who had made a mistake.
Lu Yuan didn't care whether Anna could keep up with him or not, and he went straight to his residence.
With a click, the door opened.
Sure enough, the room was searched again. The half pack of cigarettes he had left in the room yesterday was now nowhere to be found. All that was left were a few burnt cigarette butts and the smell of smoke throughout the room.
Lu Yuan frowned slightly and opened the door and windows for a while to let the wind dissipate the smell of smoke in the room before letting Anna sit in.
Anna sat on the small bed, feeling slightly confused.
She didn't know if she could trust Lu Yuan.
But he always felt that the man in front of him didn't seem to have any ill intentions towards him.
Moreover, the other person's somewhat weathered eyes might serve as a protective shield.
Anna suddenly remembered something one of her subordinates had once told her.
That is, women must use their bodies as weapons, otherwise they will not be able to survive in this apocalyptic world.
After thinking about it for a long time, she finally gritted her teeth and took off her down jacket.
Just as he was about to take off the rest of his clothes, Lu Yuan turned his head and glanced at the other person.
"Aren't you afraid of getting cold if you take off your clothes to sleep at this time?"
Anna blushed instantly upon hearing Lu Yuan's words.
She wanted to say that wasn't what she meant, but she couldn't bring herself to say it.
She could only grit her teeth and desperately try to calm herself down.
Lu Yuan picked up the down jacket and glanced at it. The down had mostly escaped, and it no longer had the warmth it used to have. So Lu Yuan tossed one of his old coats to the other person.
"Wear this. From today onwards, you'll work for me. But I want to know what your family does, and why you carry this with you all the time?"
After saying that, Lu Yuan threw the booklet he had picked up from the ground to Anna. After Anna picked it up, she seemed to remember something sad, and her face showed a hint of anger.
“My dad has found a new woman, and he doesn’t want my mom anymore! That’s why I hate him, and I want to leave this house!”
Hearing his words, Lu Yuan sighed. He was still acting like a child.
She probably has no idea how dangerous the outside world is.
People outside are willing to transform themselves into half-human, half-beast, half-Blue Star beings just for a bite to eat.
But the other party simply abandoned his wonderful life.
She just said it out of spite that she wouldn't let her father find a new woman.
In this era, men who have money will seek out women, and many women at once.
And it seems that it is one of the most instinctive things for humans to keep more men after they have money.
Lu Yuan neither said how good it was, nor did he comment on how bad it was.
He felt this was a normal human physiological reaction and didn't want to ask any more questions.
So he nodded slightly, looked at the booklet in his hand, and asked.
"I just looked at the contents of this booklet. It seems your family has a shipment to ship out in about six months, right?"
Anna thought for a moment and then nodded.
"Yes, every six months our family supplies a batch of goods to the mainland, and these goods are shipped out in advance!"
After thinking for a moment, Lu Yuan asked again.
"Besides the people who traveled with the goods, who else was there? Were there any people holding onto the goods or delivering them?"
After thinking about it for a moment, Anna realized that she hadn't paid attention to these things before.
Seeing that Lu Yuan seemed interested in these things, she could only rack her brains for ideas.
After a long pause, Anna finally spoke: "It seems there are some people, but... but they're all skilled workers. What's wrong? What do you want to do?"
"I want to leave this island, and I need your help!"
Upon hearing Lu Yuan's words, Anna's face showed a slight expression of surprise.
Anna's face suddenly lit up with excitement. She stepped forward and grabbed Lu Yuan's arm, pleading, "Can you take me with you? My mother is gone, and I don't want this family anymore!"
Lu Yuan turned his head to look at the girl who was four or five years younger than him.
"You're so naive. Do you know how hard it is for someone to survive on their own?"
Anna was stunned. She thought Lu Yuan would be a chauvinist and would ask to take care of her.
But to my surprise, he said how difficult it was for him to live alone.
Does that mean he's going to abandon me and let me live on my own?
Anna was stunned for a moment, then stammered, "You...you're not planning to take me with you?"
