"Yu Man, long time no see."
Perhaps because he had experienced too many life and death events in the apocalypse, Xu Wen Yao exuded a sense of decay, and there was always a gloom in his eyes when he looked at people.
Su Man smiled, "Not too long actually."
"Hehehe."
Xu Wenyao laughed a few times, "Maybe it's the end of the world. It makes me feel like every day is a year."
She looked up and looked around. Because of the protection of the iron house, this place was not affected too much. The windows were clean and bright, and there was a quiet atmosphere.
Compared to himself who had to go through wind and rain and was always worried about how long he could live, malice grew in Xu Wen Yao's heart.
It was obvious that Su Man was not as good as her in every way when she was in college. How could her family be together and live in seclusion in the apocalypse, while she tried her best but ended up with her family broken up and homeless?
Although she had always been ashamed to travel with those three brothers, her mentality had long been assimilated by them after spending time with them day and night.
Su Man noticed Xu Wenyao's negative emotions, but she didn't point them out. She just followed her words and said, "You must have suffered a lot."
This simple greeting was extremely irritating to Xu Wenyao's ears. She smiled with a forced smile, her voice piercing, "Yeah, I can't compare to you. You have ready-made supplies at home, and two flower protectors to escort you."
Su Man played dumb, "Ah? Who are you talking about?"
"Haha, stop pretending."
Xu Wenyao's smile was filled with malice. "Fei Minghao doesn't know about your relationship with that man yet, right? If he knew, do you think he would still protect you?"
After the auction, Su Man said that Rupert was her boyfriend, so Xu Wen Yao thought she was having an affair and used this to threaten her.
Su Man's eyes moved slightly. After understanding Xu Wenyao's intention, she reacted quickly, revealing a frightened expression, "Please, don't tell Minghao."
Her reaction was within Xu Wenyao's expectations. Yu Man was timid and fearful when she was in college, and she is still the same now.
"Don't want me to tell Minghao? Fine, as long as you tell me where the supplies are, I'll keep it a secret for you."
"this..."
Su Man pretended to be confused, stammering and unable to speak.
Xu Wenyao was obviously much better at negotiating than Fei Minghao. Seeing Su Man hesitate, she said sympathetically, "Don't worry, I only want a small portion. After all, we're in the apocalypse, and we're all trying to survive. You and I are roommates, so I naturally can't let you go hungry."
What she said was reasonable and logical. If you didn't know her background, you might actually believe her.
But what Suman needs to do now is to stabilize her. Since she joined, the relationship between them has become very delicate.
On the surface, it seems that Xu Wen Yao and the Fei family are on the same side, but they do not completely trust each other.
Su Man showed weakness precisely for this reason. Once Xu Wen Yao felt that she was being manipulated, the unstable Fei family would become her enemy.
Thinking of this, Su Man immediately said, "Actually, the supplies are hidden in the basement by my parents."
"real?"
To show his loyalty, Su Man immediately said, "I'll take you there right away."
After saying that, she pretended to walk out, counting silently in her mind, three, two...
"Wait a moment."
Xu Wenyao stopped her and said, "Go back first, we'll go later."
Su Man, who had her back to her, raised the corners of her lips. When she turned her head, she looked puzzled again, "Why is it late?"
Xu Wenyao glanced outside and lowered his voice, "Supplies are dead, but people are alive. With so many people, no matter how much food there is, it will all be eaten. Listen to me, don't tell them about the supplies, do you understand?"
Su Man said in a naive way, "But, isn't this a bad idea?"
"Not good? Who betrayed you today? Are you sure they won't turn against you if they find the supplies?"
"I..."
"You took them in just for Fei Minghao's abilities, didn't you? I also have abilities and can protect you. Besides, I only have one person, so I don't need to tell you who to choose, right?"
"Oh well."
Suman was persuaded.
In order to avoid being discovered by the Fei family, Xu Wen Yao went out after the two agreed on a time.
Looking at Xu Wen Yao's back, Su Man shook her head gently.
Three people formed three groups, and that's them.
While it was still early, Su Man went to see Rupert with the nutritional supplements she had taken out of the space.
At this moment, Rupert had taken off the seductive women's clothes and was fiddling with his equipment.
Su Man put Melatonin on the table and coughed lightly, "Are you busy?"
"busy."
Rupert didn't even look up.
Su Man was used to this kind of ignoring, and she said to herself, "Thank you so much for what I did just now."
"What are you thanking me for?" Rupert took the time to look at Su Man.
Suman explained, "If you hadn't disguised yourself as me and gone out, I would have been found by them."
"Oh, that's what you're talking about. I just chose the best solution. You're the only one who has the ability to save us, so this is the inevitable choice."
"Well, that's what you said, but you helped me after all..."
"Yu Man."
Rupert interrupted her, "I just made the choice that was best for the group based on my own position. You don't need to associate my behavior with interpersonal feelings."
Su Man frowned slightly. If she had previously thought that Rupert didn't understand interpersonal communication, but now listening to what he said, he seemed to be very opposed to it. She tentatively asked, "Why?"
"I don't want to be bound by social relationships. Once you link my behavior to a certain emotion, you will make irrational judgments about me, which will lead to a series of negative consequences. I will feel troubled."
