Chi Xia is a very generous person in many things, but she can't be generous when it comes to relationships.
She laughed in anger. Jia Jing clearly had ulterior motives towards Han Junche. The current scene made it seem like two women were fighting over one man. Jia Jing wasn't upset, but she was!
She turned to look at Han Junche and said coldly, "If this is why you asked me to come, and if this is why you made a deal with me, then there's no need. I can coax you, pamper you, and indulge you, but don't put on this kind of act with me. It disgusts me!"
She pointed to the supplies piled up in the yard and said coldly, "These supplies that have already been moved out are for Zhang Xin and Da Niu's expenses these few days. I don't need any detached houses or townhouses. I'm leaving."
After saying that, she flung her hand away and turned to leave.
Han Junche reacted quickly, grabbing her and frowning as he looked at her, saying, "Stop fooling around."
"What a load of bull!"
Chi Xia was furious, and she uttered swear words she had never said before. She looked at him and lost her temper with him for the first time.
Even when Chi Xia was angry, she appeared extremely calm. She stood there and looked at him coldly: "Han Junche, deal with all this mess of yours. Otherwise, there's no need for any rules. I will simply pretend I've never known you."
She shook off Han Junche's hand, but as soon as she did, Han Junche grabbed her back.
Han Junche gripped her wrist tightly with one hand, his deep black eyes fixed on her: "You really don't trust me?"
"This is not a matter of belief or disbelief."
Chi Xia knew that he was hurt, but he wasn't the only one who was hurt in this situation: "This Miss Jia has been telling me about principles, but I also have my principles. Han Junche, I'll give you back the nickname A-Che."
The moment he heard her say "return it to him," Han Junche's heart sank into an ice cellar. He stared intently at Chi Xia, hoping to see a trace of resentment or a joke in her eyes, but there was none.
Her gaze was firm as she looked directly at him, as if telling him again and again about her principles and determination.
Han Junche tightened his grip on her wrist, as if only then could he feel her presence. For the first time since they met, he lowered his guard and coaxed her in a low voice with a hint of pleading, "Trust me this once, I'll take care of it."
This was a side of Han Junche that Chi Xia had never seen before, nor had Lin Yi, let alone the people at the base. Everyone's eyes were filled with shock.
No one spoke; everyone was waiting for Chi Xia's answer.
Jia Jing opened her mouth as if to say something, but Jia Li coughed lightly beside her.
Upon hearing the soft cough, Jia Jing turned her head to look at Jia Li, then remained silent.
Chi Xia looked down at her wrist, which he had pinched painfully, and whispered, "Okay."
Upon hearing this "good," Wang Dalong and Li Han, who had been holding their breath, finally breathed a sigh of relief.
Han Junche gripped Chi Xia's wrist tightly, turned to Jia Li and Jia Jing and said, "I heard Lin Yi say that the reason why Uncle Jia and Jia Jing were so businesslike and left no room for discussion was because I hadn't explained my relationship with Chi Xia."
"Now, let me make this clear: Chi Xia and I were a couple before the apocalypse, and we still are now. I'm not saying this to ask for special treatment, but rather to apply to the base for couples to live together, and for the two teams to merge, in accordance with the rules."
Upon hearing this, the crowd erupted in uproar.
There are precedents in the base where two team leaders become a couple and then apply to live together as a couple, merging the two teams.
