“Survival in the apocalypse is tough, and you two are all alone. You'll inevitably face many dangers if you encounter a horde of zombies. Why don't you come with us and help each other out?”
Jiang Sinian still spoke up. Even though Qin Nuan had expected it, her heart still skipped a beat, and her mood plummeted.
"You want to recruit us?" Qin Wan raised an eyebrow.
"What are the benefits?" Gu Shaoyan's bluntness was almost endearing.
Jiang Sinian glanced at Gu Shaoyan indifferently, his gaze lingering on the kitchen knife at his waist for a second before turning his attention back to Qin Wan.
"If you join us, the team will provide you with gasoline and food along the way, and will also protect you."
Jiang Sinian used "you" instead of "you all".
In other words, it doesn't matter whether Gu Shaoyan joins or not.
From beginning to end, he only had eyes for Qin Wan.
Upon noticing Jiang Sinian's preferential treatment, Gu Shaoyan immediately turned to look at Qin Wan.
Yes, he is very self-aware.
He knew very well that Jiang Sinian, that bad man, wanted to steal Qin Wan from him.
Weak, helpless, and pitiful, he could only hope that Qin Wan would have some compassion for him, feel sorry for him, and, considering his beauty, argue that he should stay.
"Protect?" Qin Wan raised an eyebrow, her gaze towards Jiang Sinian filled with suspicion.
Jiang Sinian was a smart man, and he immediately demonstrated his strength to Qin Wan.
With a wave of his hand, a bolt of lightning struck a zombie that was coming towards him from not far away.
With a loud bang, the zombie's head and body were severed, and it fell to the ground in a miserable state.
"Lightning-type superpower." Qin Wan looked at Jiang Sinian with great envy.
"Yes, lightning-based superpowers that zombies fear most."
"As long as you are willing to join us, I will take full responsibility for your safety."
"Sinian!"
When Jiang Sinian uttered these words, which sounded like a promise, Qin Nuan was completely taken aback.
She barely managed to save Jiang Sinian before Qin Wan could.
She was Jiang Sinian's savior, and she also had spatial abilities. So why did Jiang Sinian treat them both the same and made the same promises when Qin Wan came?
Jiang Sinian ignored Qin Nuan and stared intently at Qin Wan.
Qin Wan, however, smiled as she looked at the barely concealed anger in Qin Nuan's eyes.
"You can join me, but not me, it's us."
Upon hearing Qin Wan's words, everyone present was taken aback, and all eyes immediately turned to Gu Shaoyan.
Gu Shaoyan, who was involved, was also stunned for a moment, and looked up at Qin Wan with surprise.
Is she really going to take him with her?
Why is she so good to him?
Jiang Sinian glanced at Gu Shaoyan indifferently, then returned his gaze to Qin Wan. After a brief eye contact with her, Jiang Sinian pursed his lips slightly and said, "Okay."
This is the end times; the strong rule.
Qin Wan is still willing to keep Gu Shaoyan around, simply because she is bewitched by his celebrity persona and image before the apocalypse.
If we let the two of them spend some time together, and let Qin Wan see the true colors of these celebrities, she will eventually make the right choice.
Thinking of this, Jiang Sinian calmly extended his hand to Qin Wan, "It's a pleasure to cooperate with you."
Qin Wan glanced at his hand, which was suspended in mid-air, and then, out of the corner of her eye, she saw the obsessive look in Qin Nuan's eyes. Suddenly, she smiled and gently shook hands with Jiang Sinian.
"It's a pleasure to work with you."
And so, what started as a trip for two became a trip for many.
Inside the gas station's storage warehouse, Qin Nuan pursed her red lips and silently stored the supplies into her bracelet space, her heart filled with turbulent emotions.
Why?
Having been given a second chance at life, all she wanted was to stay away from Qin Wan and live a good life.
Why is it so difficult to fulfill such a simple wish?
She was Jiang Sinian's savior in this life, so why did Jiang Sinian and Qin Wan meet again, and why did they get entangled again?
Without any life-saving grace, and only with a spatial ability, why would Jiang Sinian still treat Qin Wan differently, even though he already had her?
Is she too low-key?
Was the strength she displayed to Jiang Sinian too weak?
Or did she give Jiang Sinian some kind of illusion, making him think that she could be ignored and treated coldly?
"younger sister?"
"Long time no see." Qin Wan crossed her arms and looked at Qin Nuan with a smile.
Qin Nuan stared intently at Qin Wan, "What are you doing here? Who gave you permission to come in?"
"Do you think there could be anyone else besides Jiang Sinian?"
Upon hearing Qin Wan's words, Qin Nuan's face immediately darkened.
"impossible!"
"Sinian would never do this to me!"
Qin Nuan refused to believe it.
She was Jiang Sinian's savior; they had known each other before the apocalypse.
Qin Wan was just a new superhuman who had joined today, and Jiang Sinian had only known her for a short hour.
Why did Jiang Sinian's trust in Qin Wan catch up with hers so quickly?
What exactly makes Qin Wan so special?
What is it about her that makes her so charming?
Staring at Qin Nuan's "murderous gaze," Qin Wan did not give her a chance to vent her emotions, but instead slowly turned her gaze to Qin Nuan's wrist.
"Sister, why is this jade bracelet on your wrist?"
Faced with Qin Wan's questioning, Qin Nuan subconsciously hid the hand wearing the bracelet behind her back.
"This is my bracelet, it has nothing to do with you," Qin Nuan said coldly, her face grim.
"Your bracelet? Could it be that my sister has a memory problem?"
"That jade bracelet is clearly a keepsake left to me by my mother..."
"My sister, as the eldest daughter of the Qin family, actually wants to compete with me, an orphan, for a worthless jade bracelet left by our birth mother?"
Faced with Qin Wan's sarcastic remarks, Qin Nuan became extremely irritable and out of control.
"What orphan? Qin Wan, don't forget, you're just an illegitimate child!"
"Also, when did this jade bracelet become your mother's property?"
"This jade bracelet was clearly given by my grandmother to my mother, her rightful daughter-in-law!"
"This jade bracelet was clearly stolen by your mother, who was your mistress!"
"Qin Wan, your mother is shameless. She steals other people's men and doesn't hesitate to become a mistress."
"You're no better. It's bad enough that you're hoarding everything that doesn't belong to you, but now you dare to try and take everything that belongs to me!"
As she spoke, Qin Nuan stared at Qin Wan with a sinister gaze.
Upon hearing this, Qin Wan smiled.
"Qin Nuan, your ability to brainwash yourself is truly impressive."
"You know perfectly well why Grandma gave this jade bracelet to my mother, don't you?"
Upon hearing Qin Wan's words, Qin Nuan's face darkened abruptly.
"Qin Wan, you've gone too far!"
Qin Nuan couldn't resist drawing the gun from her waist and aiming it at Qin Wan again.
"Bang!"
Qin Nuan pulled the trigger, and the sound of the gunshot echoed throughout the gas station. Jiang Sinian and Gu Shaoyan, who were outside the warehouse, were alerted and rushed in immediately.
Gu Shaoyan rushed to Qin Wan's side immediately, looking her up and down, "Are you alright?"
Jiang Sinian squinted at Qin Nuan with displeasure. "Qin Nuan, that's enough!"
Seeing the displeasure and subtle threat in Shang Jiang Sinian's eyes, Qin Nuan's heart skipped a beat, and an indescribable sense of sorrow washed over her...
