Thanks to Nan Xun's constant supervision and the workers' tireless efforts, the safety fortress was finally completed.
The entire shopping mall seemed to be covered by a layer of steel and iron, and from the outside, it looked like a general wearing armor and fighting his way through thorns and brambles.
Or perhaps, it's more like a tank, except it can't move.
Jiang Ruan paid them and then, from top to bottom, considered how to make the most of this great place.
As is customary, she should stockpile as much as possible, storing all the delicious food and drinks in the space in an extremely unusual way, and then transform the interior of the mall into a comfortable little home.
However, Jiang Ruan knew very well that doing so would definitely attract the attention of the intelligence agency, and she might then be judged as an outcast.
By then, when the end times will come before we've had any time to prepare, won't all our efforts have been wasted?
Therefore, Jiang Ruan decided to change her approach.
She first had her parents and best friend Anxia register shops in her name, and then each of them took over at least three shops, each with a different business focus.
Some companies produce clothing, such as down jackets, thermal underwear, and air-conditioned clothing, with styles available for all seasons.
Some businesses deal in fabrics and home textiles, such as cotton, linen, silk, chemical fibers, and ready-made four-piece bedding sets, etc.
There are businesses selling household goods, food workshops, and everything else you can think of.
It took about a week to complete the entire process of registration, installation, setup, and operation.
However, because there was no publicity, not many people came.
Moreover, Jiang Ruan and his team set very high prices, at the top of the fluctuating price list. As a premium for an unknown brand, this was not something consumers liked, resulting in extremely poor business.
The original boss had the privilege of visiting once and praised Jiang Ruan for doing a great job, showering her with compliments and affirmations.
But Jiang Ruan understood that he was just there to laugh at her; he would only be unhappy if she really became big and strong.
He'll definitely feel that the price he's being offered is too low.
After the boss left, Jiang Ruan went into the space to look at the sleeping baby. His name was Jiang Baiyuan, which was taken from the phrase "the pines and cypresses are the best, and one can understand the profound and subtle."
Jiang Ruan hoped that he would maintain his unwavering integrity under any difficult conditions.
【Master, master, baby is so good, not like the kind I remember, the kind that I hated.】
Wen Yu ran out from the side, carrying a change of diapers in her hand.
You look a bit weathered after just a few days.
"You've worked so hard, and you're even helping me look after the kids. It's really tough on you."
Jiang Ruan touched Wen Yu's head; her soft hair and delicate face really made her look like a porcelain doll.
[Master, I'm happy taking care of him. I've found that the more I care for him, the more focused my mental energy becomes, and the stronger my energy grows.]
I suspect the reason I leveled up so quickly is because after he was born, the curse that had suppressed me for so many years was lifted, opening up my Ren and Du meridians.
Wen Yu swung her two slender, white arms, her silvery laughter echoing in the space.
Jiang Ruan saw it; after Wen Yu finished speaking about mental power, a health bar similar to that in a game animation appeared above his head.
Jiang Ruan pointed at Wen Yu's head, "Mental power? Is it these blue bars on your head?"
Wen Yu touched herself, and suddenly thought of something. She moved a mirror that was even taller than herself out of a house behind her and looked at herself in it.
"Huh, why can't I see anything? Is there a frame above my head, and it's blue?"
Jiang Ruan looked at her and pointed it out. Seeing that she was really unconscious, she comforted her, "It's okay, it's okay. It doesn't matter if you can see or not. Maybe you're too young. You'll be able to see when you're older."
"Besides, with me here, I can tell you if you want to know."
Wen Yu nodded, realizing the truth of what was said, and she instantly understood.
[By the way, Master, the spiritual power I just mentioned is a type of power. It's like my body is a huge pool; as surrounding energy gathers, it will level up after reaching a certain amount.]
"I understand. You mean it's like the game I play, where you defeat a certain number of monsters and get a certain score to level up and become stronger until you reach the ultimate level."
Yes, that's right, the owner is so clever!
Wen Yu jumped up excitedly, hugged Jiang Ruan's arm and swayed it from side to side, like a child begging for candy, which was extremely cute.
The two talked for a while longer, but the baby still didn't wake up. She gave a few instructions, then stuffed the supplies from several shops into her spatial storage and went out to buy more.
Those detectives, having nothing to do since they no longer needed to track Du Ning, were conscripted by Jiang Ruan.
Half the people helped transport the goods, while the other half pretended to be buyers, creating the impression that the place had been completely emptied and they needed to restock.
After Jiang Ruan brought in the latest batch of goods, her mother called, expressing her concern and mentioning the matter of using her identity information to open a store a few days ago.
“Ruan Ruan, how are you doing? Do you need Mom's help? Mom doesn't have anything to do here. Your dad and I are quite free, so we were thinking of selling the house and living with you.”
"After you get married again, your father and I will move out again, is that alright?"
Jiang's mother spoke cautiously, knowing full well that most adults were unwilling to live with their parents, feeling constrained.
Jiang Ruan felt a pang of heartache upon hearing this, for she had truly caused her parents no peace of mind from childhood to adulthood.
They only realize their mistakes in the final days, so there will be no hesitation.
So she agreed after Jiang's mother finished speaking.
As soon as Jiang's parents hung up the phone, Jiang's mother looked at Jiang's father and revealed an unexpected smile.
Upon seeing this, Jiang's father quickly ran over, rubbing his apron, and asked with concern, "What's wrong? Judging from your smile, has Ruan Ruan agreed?"
Jiang's mother smiled and then nodded firmly.
Living with Jiang Ruan was the result of several days of thought and discussion between them.
From the last dream, to selling all premarital properties, to the divorce from Du Ning, to buying a desolate shopping mall, and even using their identity information to register the property.
This series of actions truly frightened them, and they were always worried that something had happened to her, or that Du Ning had caused her some kind of depression or mental illness.
They only have this one precious daughter, and they are really worried and can't rest easy about her.
So they quit all their jobs and listed the house on a real estate website, hoping to make more money for a rainy day.
Parents' love is always profound and silent.
Jiang's father received affirmation and smiled knowingly, looking as if he had just recovered from a serious illness and had been given a new lease on life.
Mr. Jiang pulled Mrs. Jiang along, very excited, "Let's go, let's pack up and go now, I'll cook delicious food for our daughter every day."
"good!"
The two quickly finished packing, handed the package to the courier, and drove towards the address Jiang Ruan had sent them.
Unexpectedly, someone suddenly appeared out of nowhere, flashing a mirror in Jiang's father's eyes. The brakes failed again, and Jiang's father and mother both fell into a pool of blood...
