Chapter 127 Xia Qianqian Arrives
Because everyone slept at three or four in the morning, they slept straight until lunchtime the next day.
Liu Xiuping and the others had already prepared the meal. After Ling Ran finished washing up, the others sat down to eat together.
At the table, Pei Yi ate while asking Ling Ran, "Ling Ran, how long do we plan to stay in G City?"
"Let's stay for two more days and then leave. We've already achieved our purpose in coming to G City."
Ling Ran came to G City for three reasons: first, to find a cook; second, to find a novelist; and third, to see what the G City base was like. Now that she has achieved all of those goals, there's no point in staying any longer.
"Um."
Pei Xiu and Chen Le were still talking about who was lucky enough to open the packages last night when there was a knock on the door.
Fan Chuan, who was closest to the door, quickly got up to open it: "Who is it?"
"Hello, I am Xia Qianqian."
All eyes immediately turned to Shen Nianshen, who touched his nose somewhat embarrassed by their stares. At the same time, he also lost some of his goodwill towards Xia Qianqian.
In fact, Shen Nianshen was already somewhat displeased when Xia Qianqian tried to recruit him to her team last time.
He felt that Xia Qianqian's friendship with him seemed to have ulterior motives.
Recalling her previous confident assertion about the future power of spatial abilities, he became increasingly convinced that his guess was correct.
Seeing that the others looked like they knew each other, Fan Chuan opened the door. A clean-looking, pretty girl came into view.
He stepped aside to let him in.
Xia Qianqian immediately noticed the enormous dining table, with such a rich variety of dishes that even she, who had stockpiled supplies before the apocalypse, dared not eat like that.
She looked at the person sitting in the main seat. She was still clean, and even had gained weight due to the good food she had been eating these days. Her face had become fuller, and she looked even more beautiful.
"Hello Captain Ling, I'm Xia Qianqian, we've met before."
Ling Ran glanced at her but didn't say anything, just continued eating. Shen Nian knew what she meant, so she took the initiative to ask, "If you have something to say, just say it. The lady doesn't like being disturbed while she's eating."
Xia Qianqian was surprised by Shen Nianshen's words and immediately felt a little humiliated.
Moreover, the way Shen Nianshen spoke, showing his protection and admiration for Ling Ran, made her feel even more disappointed.
She bit her lip, her gaze sincere: "I'm sorry, I didn't know about this."
"Just tell me what's on your mind."
Shen Nian Shen repeated it again.
After spending a lot of time with Ling Ran, he gradually started to adopt Ling Ran's 'style', disliking people who were indecisive in their speech and actions.
Xia Qianqian felt another blow to her heart: "I came to ask Captain Ling how his inspection of the G City base went?"
"What does this have to do with you?"
Pei Xiu spat out the bones from the ribs and retorted.
In his view, Xia Qianqian was somewhat like the scheming female supporting character next to his leading lady sister—delicate and beautiful, with many boys protecting her.
Isn't that the standard for a "green tea" girl in novels?
"I didn't mean anything by it." Xia Qianqian tried hard to suppress the inexplicable disappointment in her heart: "I just wanted to ask if Captain Ling is not planning to stay at the G City base. If so, where is he going next? I wanted to ask if we could go together."
As she spoke, Pei Xiu, who had just taken another bite of a rib, spat out another bone: "Why don't you just ask directly? It's just a matter of a single sentence, why are you stammering for so long?"
Xia Qianqian: "..."
Pei Yi glanced at Ling Ran, then politely declined, saying, "Miss Xia, I'm sorry, we already have a lot of members, so it's inconvenient for us to travel together."
