Chapter 29 Being followed

Chen Qingqing got out of the car with a machete in her hand, expressionless, and walked out along the wall.

Shang Li quickly followed her, saying softly, "Sister, I'll cover you."

Chen Qingqing didn't want to agree, but after thinking for a while, Shang Li also thought that he should have a chance to exercise, so he nodded quickly, "Don't follow too closely, or I'll have to save you first if you're in danger."

Zhou Weiyue, who stayed where she was, was envious and sad, "I want to go too."

Qian Qian patted Zhou Weiyue's shoulder in understanding, "Sister Chen said she would teach us some skills when she's free. Maybe if we practice well, we can help Sister Chen next time."

Chen Qingqing walked out of the alley holding the machete, and no one in the car got out yet.

How rude.

Chen Qingqing muttered to herself, and walked forward quickly, followed closely by Shang Li.

Chen Qingqing stood by the window of the van, glanced at the shivering woman in the passenger seat, and then looked directly at the gloomy man in the driver's seat.

"Do you have anything to do?" Chen Qingqing asked.

"..." The two of them said nothing.

Chen Qingqing: "Get out."

She said it very clearly and loudly.

But the two people in the car ignored her and began to avoid her eyes.

Chen Qingqing: "I'll say it again, get out."

"..."

Chen Qingqing's patience was exhausted, and she walked to the side of the door, raised the machete and prepared to take action.

"Wow--"

Suddenly a familiar cry rang out, and Chen Qingqing stopped subconsciously.

The sound came from inside the car. As a mother herself, she was extremely sensitive to the sound of children crying.

And this sound... there were at least three or four children, including a baby.

Shang Li was stunned: "What's going on?"

The door of the van was opened from the inside.

As Chen Qingqing expected, there were two adult men, two adult women, three children aged four or five, and a baby in a cradle who looked less than one year old.

They all looked at Chen Qingqing with timid eyes.

Chen Qingqing forced herself to look away from the crying baby and looked at the adults: "What are you doing with me?"

"We saw your skills just now and wanted to ask for your help..."

"Can you help us? We are taking care of the children and we are running out of food and water. It doesn't matter if we die of hunger and thirst, but these children..."

Chen Qingqing said coldly: "We don't have any supplies either."

Shang Li didn't seem to expect Chen Qingqing to reject several people so decisively. Even though she also has children, she doesn't seem to have excessive sympathy for parents with children. Shang Li

secretly breathed a sigh of relief.

He was just worried that Sister Chen would soften her heart when she saw people with children.

"No... You can't be so cruel. If you don't help us, we will definitely die!"

"If you keep living this way, no matter how many people help you, you will die soon." Chen Qingqing retorted mercilessly.

In fact, the current apocalypse is still a long way from the difficult mode, and many disasters that can really torture people are still on the way.

If you can't find supplies to survive now, there will be no chance in the future.

Chen Qingqing helped them once, and it is impossible to help them every time.

"Don't follow me again, otherwise you will bear the consequences."

Chen Qingqing said this and turned back.

"Please! Don't leave! Please help us, there must be a lot of supplies with so many of you..."

Shang Li trotted to catch up with Chen Qingqing: "Sister, will they stay with us?"

Chen Qingqing: "I don't know, if they continue to follow, I will teach them a lesson."

"Sister, do you think they can raise those children?"

Chen Qingqing clenched her fists.

"As long as they want to raise them, they can."

...Except for that baby.

Chen Qingqing couldn't help but think of Huo Huo in her previous life.

Both she and Lin Bo couldn't raise Huo Huo.

But children who have left the infant stage are easier to raise, such as Xiao Huan.

If Xiao Huan hadn't had his arm torn off, he would definitely be able to survive.

Although Chen Qingqing has enough supplies, she is not a compassionate person.

She just wants to protect her family, and that is enough.

"Get ready to eat, and then search for supplies nearby."

After lunch today, Chen Qingqing has taken them through the process of searching for supplies. They memorized it in their hearts, and only by practicing more can they become proficient.

Chen Qingqing got in the car and told Lin Bo what happened, but Lin Bo was silent for a rare time.

"...Husband?"

Lin Bo raised his head and looked at his wife, and pulled the corner of his mouth reluctantly: "I'm fine, I just thought about the things you said in your last life..."

He couldn't help but think, if someone helped them at that time, would they not have such a miserable life? Would the firewood not leave them so easily?

Chen Qingqing looked at her husband's profile.

In fact, Lin Bo was the cruel one in his previous life.

When Chen Qingqing was at home taking care of the children, he went out alone to collect supplies. For the sake of food for the family, he was not afraid at all, even if he had to compete with many people, and he would not be soft-hearted.

Because it was because of his carelessness in the beginning that someone followed him home and robbed all the supplies in the house.

He hated and blamed himself countless times for this.

He changed from a seemingly gentle wolf to an extremely ferocious hyena. He was not afraid to compete with anyone, but he was afraid that he could not win.

In order to let his wife and children survive, he killed his own kindness with his own hands.

Chen Qingqing loved Lin Bo, no matter whether he was fierce or kind.

But if Chen Qingqing had to choose, she didn't want Lin Bo to suffer so much, and hoped that Lin Bo could maintain his most comfortable appearance.

"If you want to help them..."

Chen Qingqing took out half a can of milk powder from the space.

"How about we send this over?"

They couldn't take out a whole can, even if they had it.

That would seem too generous and too blatant. As the saying goes, a favor is rewarded with a vengeance, and no one wants to bring disaster upon themselves because of kindness.

Lin Bo stayed with Chen Qingqing 24 hours a day and understood Chen Qingqing's various thoughts since her rebirth. He knew that his wife had tied herself up very tightly to protect the family.

So he didn't say much.

But his wife still noticed his emotions and was willing to give in for his feelings.

What else could Lin Bo say?

"Thank you, my wife."

Chen Qingqing smiled, opened the car window and waved to Shang Li at the entrance of the alley: "Shang Li, come here."

"Hey, I'm here!" Shang Li trotted over, approached Chen Qingqing and smiled: "Sister, what's the matter?"

Chen Qingqing handed him half a can of milk powder: "Give it to the people in the van, and tell them that we saved it by saving money."

Shang Li was stunned, then looked at Lin Bo, and immediately thought of something.

But he said nothing, holding the milk powder can and left.

After a while, he came back to report.

Shang Li said that the group of people were very grateful for Chen Qingqing's gift and even made milk powder on the spot.

But Chen Qingqing noticed that Shang Li's expression was a little strange, so she asked him what was wrong.

Shang Li scratched his head and said suspiciously: "Sister, I don't know much because I have never raised a child... Is it enough to put only half a spoonful of milk powder in a bottle of water?"
