It was late at night, and it was raining in both City B and City Xiang.
The garrison set up tents at the city gate and brought powerful searchlights.
Ikegawa and his group set up a stall under the searchlight to sell supplies.
Hearing Gong Yi yelling, Chi Chuan craned his neck worriedly and glanced in the direction of Gong Yi and Hua Mi.
Many survivors in the queue also turned their attention to this.
A little girl, holding her mother's hand, looked up fearfully and asked:
"Mom, is that garrison officer going to hit someone?"
The mother in line quickly covered her daughter's mouth and picked her up.
"Shh, don't talk, or you'll get beaten up too."
Beside the armored vehicle, Hua Mi frowned and looked up at Gong Yi.
He's too fierce.
But he cared about her, truly, she felt it, he cared about her with his life on his shoulders.
Gong Yi irritably ran his fingers through his buzz cut, still yelling at her.
"Hua Mi, you need to be fair. You know what the outside world is like after all this time, right? And you? You're always running around like this. You're in B City in the morning, then you go back to Xiang City in the afternoon, and then you're back in B City again in the evening. Are you some kind of monkey?"
He never showed any mercy when reprimanding people; he reprimanded Hua Mi just like he reprimanded the garrison under his command.
"Uh~"
Hua Mi, who had been called a monkey, frowned even more deeply.
Gong Yi was about to continue his fierce attack when he noticed Hua Mi's expression. He paused, and his voice instantly dropped ten degrees.
"What’s wrong with you?"
"I...I...vomit..."
Hua Mi clutched her lower abdomen, turned around, and leaned against the armored vehicle, retching.
"Is your stomach still not better?"
Gong Yi grasped Hua Mi's arm, gently placed one hand on her slender back, patted it lightly, and asked,
"With so many medicines on your hands, haven't you taken your stomach medicine on time?"
"It's nothing, I... *vomit*"
Hua Mi vomited violently, even dry heaving bile.
"I...ugh...I promise I'll send you a message wherever I go from now on...ugh..."
She gagged while reassuring Gong Yi.
Gong Yi's brows furrowed deeply. He scooped Hua Mi up in his arms and ran straight to the nanny van where she was parked not far away.
"Alright, stop making promises and hurry up and get your medicine."
Just as Hua Mi was put into the nanny van, two garrison officers ran over.
"Reporting to the commander, the garrison captain of City B has arrived."
Gong Yi placed Hua Mi on the bunk bed. He frowned, turned around, glanced at the guards outside, and then looked at Hua Mi.
Lying in a soft lamplight, Hua Mi looked pale and haggard, as if she would break at the slightest touch.
She raised her eyelashes and said weakly,
"I'm fine, you go ahead and do your thing. Call me when you need to check on the B City supply depot."
Gong Yi waved to the two guards outside the van, frowning as he looked at Hua Mi.
"What kind of stomach problem do you have? It's always so scary when it flares up?"
"Hmm... well, actually..."
Hua Mi lay half-reclined on the bed, unsure how to tell this straight man that she didn't have a stomach problem, but that she was pregnant.
Is it necessary to say it?
She has no relationship with Gong Yi, and whether she's pregnant or not doesn't stop her from clinging to Gong Yi, this successful businessman.
Before she could figure it out, Gong Yi pulled the blanket from the mother-and-child bed and covered Hua Mi with it.
"Alright, I'm not trying to be mean to you. You know I'm very busy, with one thing after another, all of which are life-or-death matters. So I don't have time to look after you all the time. At times like these, everyone has to rely on their own initiative."
"Take your medicine on time, and if anything happens, send a message or call."
The B City garrison captain was waiting outside. The entire management of Xiangcheng was under the control of his garrison in the management building.
Gong Yi has no time for sentimental matters here.
He turned and walked outside, but when he reached the car door, he turned back and added another sentence.
"I'll call you when I go to check the supplies warehouse."
When he spoke, the sharpness in his eyes seemed to have faded considerably.
Hua Mi gave a soft "hmm," her eyes lowered, lost in thought.
After Gong Yi left, she got up and went to the bathroom to wash up, changed into a loose and dry set of clothes, and planned to take a nap first.
Every time she falls asleep, she stops the one-click harvesting of fruit trees in the backyard.
The oranges that hang from the branches every few minutes will automatically fall off when they ripen.
A few hours would be enough for these oranges to turn into a wave of oranges and bury her supermarket.
However, Hua Mi also had her own methods.
In reality, after the underground parking garage collapses and the garbage is cleared out, many broken roof sections will inevitably remain.
Hua Mi instructed the contractor to repair the rest of the broken roofs, leaving only a large hole in the backyard of the supermarket.
After Hua Mi's modifications, once the oranges falling from the orange tree accumulate to a certain number, they will fall into the hole and roll directly into the underground parking garage.
This way, the oranges wouldn't just pile up on the ground. When Hua Mi woke up from her nap, she found that the supermarket was completely submerged in the orange waves.
Tang You would send out garrison troops to transport supplies to the underground parking garage every day.
Hua Mi also called the agricultural trade tycoon and told him to stop sending the truck carrying live fish to Xiangcheng and go straight back to City B.
In the nanny van, seeing that it was getting late, Hua Mi slept comfortably all night. In the middle of the night, the driver's seat of her RV was opened.
Hua Mi suddenly opened her eyes, spread her fingers from under the covers, and grabbed a boning knife in her hand.
There were sounds of patrol officers moving around outside the car window, and the passenger door was opened.
