"You know him?"
Qin Nuan's words drew Jiang Sinian's attention back to her, his gaze shifting between her and Qin Wan.
"I don't know him."
Complex thoughts lingered in her mind for a moment, but Qin Nuan quickly suppressed them.
She was reborn and returned, but she was no longer the Qin Nuan she once was.
Even the chaos of the post-apocalyptic world cannot change Qin Wan's status as an illegitimate daughter.
Anyone with eyes could see that Qin Nuan's attitude was off, but Jiang Sinian didn't press the matter. Instead, he frowned and squinted dangerously at Qin Wan and Gu Shaoyan.
How did you escape from City B?
Before the apocalypse, Jiang Sinian was the top CEO of the Jiang Group, exuding the domineering aura of a leader.
After the apocalypse, he awakened his superpowers and became a powerful figure in the post-apocalyptic world, making his already assertive personality even more undisguised.
Gu Shaoyan frowned and stared at Jiang Sinian. "We are not your subordinates. Mr. Jiang, you'd better watch your tone."
Gu Shaoyan knew Jiang Sinian, but didn't have a good impression of him.
Gu Shaoyan's words caught Jiang Sinian's attention.
“…Gu Shaoyan?” Jiang Sinian frowned.
"You two know each other?" Qin Nuan couldn't help but ask.
Qin Wan's curious gaze also turned to Gu Shaoyan beside her.
"You don't recognize him?"
Jiang Sinian frowned as he looked at Qin Nuan beside him, his eyes filled with a faint hint of suspicion and inquiry.
Before the apocalypse, Gu Shaoyan had just become a sensation online, his presence felt everywhere, from Weibo and Douyin to Toutiao and even WeChat Moments.
Qin Nuan doesn't recognize him?
With Qin Wan as a cautionary tale, Gu Shaoyan was already used to the appearance of another Qin Nuan who didn't recognize him.
He's only recently become famous, not someone who's been famous for years, so it's normal not to know him.
Considering this woman's reaction when she saw Qin Wan, it's clear they were old acquaintances...
Perhaps this woman and Qin Wan were both college students preparing for the postgraduate entrance exam, and like Qin Wan, she was so engrossed in studying that she hadn't been online for months.
With this thought, Gu Shaoyan's heart instantly became calm and undisturbed...
So what if he doesn't know Gu Shaoyan? It's no big deal.
He's just a small-time actor, not some kind of billionaire, yet he's become a household name.
"So, who exactly is he? Why should I know him?" Qin Nuan frowned, looking at Gu Shaoyan with a face full of suspicion.
Jiang Sinian: "...If you don't know them, that's fine. They're just insignificant people."
Qin Wan: "..." These two are really a good match.
"..." Gu Shaoyan's lips twitched involuntarily.
He and Qin Wan exchanged a glance, both seeing utter speechlessness in each other's eyes.
"What is your purpose?" Qin Nuan and Jiang Sinian turned to look at Qin Wan and Gu Shaoyan at the same time.
Reminded by them, Qin Wan immediately remembered the important matter, nudged Gu Shaoyan beside her with her elbow, and gestured for him to cheer her on.
"First come, first served, don't you understand?!"
Seeing Gu Shaoyan's behavior, Jiang Sinian narrowed his eyes dangerously, and Qin Nuan couldn't help but shout out on the spot, trying to stop Gu Shaoyan from taking things without asking.
"What? Do you own this gas station?"
Qin Wan held the clothes pole horizontally in front of Qin Nuan, preventing her from trying to grab Gu Shaoyan.
"Qin Wan, don't go too far!" Qin Nuan squinted at Qin Wan, warning her in an unfriendly tone.
Having been given a second chance at life, all she wants is to improve her strength and live a good life.
She didn't want to have anything to do with Qin Wan, her illegitimate daughter, anymore.
"The gas station isn't owned by you, why can't we fill up our gas tanks?"
"As for your point about first come, first served, does that mean the gas is yours just because you came first? Why should you? Is your name on the gas station's name?"
As she spoke, Qin Wan looked around the gas station and chuckled softly.
"Since your name isn't written on it, it's not yours."
"Qin Wan, you've gone too far!"
Qin Wan's words sounded like a blatant provocation to Qin Nuan.
In her anger, she pulled out the gun from her waist, pulled the trigger, and pointed the gun at Qin Wan.
"Gu Shaoyan, you'd better stop right now!"
"If you dare to make another move, believe me, I'll kill Qin Wan!"
Upon hearing Qin Nuan's threatening words, Gu Shaoyan abruptly stopped refueling the SUV.
Qin Wan glanced at him indifferently, "Add more, fill it up completely."
"After filling it up, go find a few more gas tanks to fill up and take it on the road, just in case."
Upon hearing Qin Wan's words, Qin Nuan instantly felt provoked.
Even though she was determined not to be Qin Wan's enemy, she couldn't help herself in the moment when anger overwhelmed her.
"Bang!"
"Clang!"
"ah!"
Just as Qin Nuan was about to shoot Qin Wan, an excruciating pain struck her the moment she moved her hand.
Her grip on the gun went limp, her fingers spread weakly, and the gun fell to the ground without warning.
The moment it fell, Qin Wan gently lifted it up with the clothes pole, and the gun was easily in her hand.
Qin Nuan looked up angrily, but unexpectedly, the cold muzzle of a gun was pressed directly against her forehead.
"Try moving it again?"
"Let's see whose gun is faster!"
Qin Nuan's body stiffened, as if she had fallen into an ice cave, and a bone-chilling cold swept over her entire body.
Beside her, Jiang Sinian was pointing a gun at Qin Wan, his face dark and extremely grim.
"Si Nian, don't worry about me, kill her!"
Qin Nuan knew that Jiang Sinian had superpowers and a gun.
If Jiang Sinian wanted to, Qin Wan would never have a chance of survival.
But at that moment, for some reason, Jiang Sinian squinted at Qin Wan for a while, and then chose to put down the gun in his hand.
"Let her go."
"Use the gasoline as you like," Jiang Sinian said in a deep voice.
Upon hearing this, Qin Wan smiled, but Qin Nuan was filled with anger and looked at Jiang Sinian with disbelief.
"President Jiang is indeed a smart man." With that, Qin Wan put the gun away and tucked it into her waistband, showing no intention of returning it to Qin Nuan.
Not far away, Gu Shaoyan quickly filled the car with gas and then, as Qin Wan had instructed, found several gas tanks and filled them as well.
As Qin Wan walked towards him, Gu Shaoyan made no move to put the gas tank in the trunk. His dark eyes remained fixed on Qin Wan.
Under his hopeful gaze, Qin Wan waved her hand and stored all the oil tanks that filled the surrounding area into her spatial storage.
That instant!
Qin Nuan froze, her pupils contracted sharply, and she stared at Qin Wan in disbelief.
How is that possible?
The space jade bracelet was clearly in her possession, so why did Qin Wan suddenly have a space again?
Is it a spatial ability?
Or is it a spatial magic item, just like the jade bracelet on her wrist?
Thinking of this, Qin Nuan's expression became increasingly solemn and unpleasant.
Why is Qin Wan so lucky?
She stole one of my spatial jade bracelets, and now she's created a new one?
Why is God so unfair?
Just as Qin Nuan was immersed in her resentment, Jiang Sinian stared at Qin Wan with a serious expression.
"This woman possesses the same spatial abilities as you!"
Upon noticing the change in Jiang Sinian's attitude towards Qin Wan, Qin Nuan was startled, and a strong sense of foreboding washed over her.
"Si Nian?"
