There were several children in the cafeteria who were about the same age as Xiao Hao. When they saw that Xiao Hao had received two chocolates, they looked longingly at him, and many adults also looked over.
The Ding family is a small society with distinct social classes.
The rich enjoy comfortable beds and fine food and wine. The poor, after finishing their meal, worry about what to eat next.
Those who ate in the dining hall were the lowest rank of the Ding family.
It's been more than half a year since the apocalypse, and resources are scarce. Let alone snacks, it's good enough to have a full meal.
Pei Nansheng helped Xiao Hao unwrap the chocolate and deliberately said loudly, "This is a gift from your older sister. Eat it, finish it."
Xiao Hao hunched his shoulders, avoiding everyone's gaze, and hid in front of Pei Nansheng, quickly finishing the chocolate.
Zuo Ling belatedly realized that upon seeing the children, she softened her heart and forgot that she was in the apocalypse.
Fortunately, many members of the Ding family knew that she was coming back. Her older sister gave her younger brother two chocolates as a greeting gift, so no one came up to her and made a fool of themselves.
Zuo Ling was unhappy. She felt embarrassed to accept two pieces of chocolate as a gift when she had a whole space full of supplies.
Xiao Hao had less food on his plate than the others, so Pei Nansheng gave his food to Xiao Hao and then used his fire ability to reheat the food.
When Zuo Ling first saw Pei Nansheng use his fire ability, she thought to herself, "Pei Nansheng is really good to Xiao Hao."
Why didn't he heat up that basin of ice water earlier?
Xiao Hao was very sensible and pushed the plate towards Pei Nansheng, saying, "Brother, let's eat together."
Pei Nansheng patted his head: "Good boy, you eat, your brother has some."
Zuo Ling gave most of the food on her plate to Pei Nansheng, since she couldn't eat any more anyway.
Pei Nansheng didn't stand on ceremony at all, and without using his fire ability to heat it up, he ate it in big mouthfuls.
Xiao Hao hesitated for a moment, then pushed the plate towards Zuo Ling: "Sister... Sister, eat."
Zuo Ling wouldn't even look at that little bit of food.
"Sister has some, you should eat it quickly, otherwise it will get cold and your brother will have heated it up for nothing."
Xiao Hao then wolfed down the food, shoveling it into his mouth.
Zuo Ling gave all the vegetables to Pei Nansheng, leaving herself only a little white rice. The rice felt like chewing ice crystals, and she held it in her mouth for a long time before daring to swallow it.
After hastily finishing a cold and tasteless meal, I said goodbye to Xiao Hao and headed back.
He asked Pei Nansheng, "Where does Xiao Hao live?"
"He lives with his friends and he needs to undergo training."
Pei Nansheng's tone was cold, suggesting he was recalling some unpleasant experiences.
Instead of returning to their lodgings, the two strolled leisurely through the village, eventually arriving near the clinic.
The clinic was dark, and Ding Xiaoya went home after get off work.
Pei Nansheng said, "I've turned off the surveillance cameras. The window is open. You only have five minutes."
Zuo Ling slipped into the shadows and quickly made her way to the back window of the clinic.
He opened the window, jumped in, and his movements were clean and swift.
In her past life, she had delivered medicine to the clinic and knew that there was a drug warehouse hidden underground in the clinic's pharmacy.
He skillfully activated the mechanism, revealing a downward staircase beneath the ground.
The Ding family had been living in peace for too long and were confident that no one would dare to make a move in their stronghold, so the secret room had no security measures at all.
The space, which is over 300 square meters in size, was packed full, containing not only medicines but also a number of medical devices.
Zuo Lingyan was so ruthless that she didn't leave the Ding family even a single piece of gauze.
Pei Nansheng wouldn't let her collect the medicines and supplies on the ground. Fine, she wouldn't collect them; there wasn't anything on the ground that she found interesting.
Two seconds to five minutes later, Zuo Ling returned to Pei Nansheng's side like a ghost.
Pei Nansheng breathed a sigh of relief. He was worried that something might happen to Zuo Ling if she acted alone.
Before he could speak, Pei Nansheng disappeared into the shadows; he was there to clean up the mess. Zuo Ling couldn't do the cleaning up, so only he could.
After finishing their business, Pei Nansheng took Zuo Ling to collect bedding and other daily necessities.
The person on duty at the supplies department was Ding Youyi's son, Ding Dahe.
He glanced at Zuo Ling sideways and said impatiently:
"What time is it? If you're all like this, don't you let other people rest? Go, go, go, let's talk about it tomorrow, don't keep me from sleeping."
It seemed someone didn't want her to have a good time and was deliberately giving her a hard time. Zuo Ling didn't argue with him and just pulled Pei Nansheng away.
Shutting down Zuo Ling's expression, Pei Nansheng asked, "What do you want to do?"
Zuo Ling retorted irritably, "What can I do? Find someone to back me up?"
Pei Nansheng had a vague feeling about it, but he didn't believe that Zuo Ling would really dare to do that.
The head of the family, Ding Fengguo, lived with his eldest son, Ding Youdao, and his family in a three-story villa.
In her previous life, Zuo Ling also lived here.
The room was warm and cozy, a world apart from the outside. As soon as she entered, a wave of heat hit her, making Zuo Ling want to take off her coat.
Ding Fengguo and Ding Youdao were eating, but Zhao Min was not there. It was unclear whether she was locked up or treated for her injuries.
A quick glance at the dining table reveals sweet and sour fish, braised pork ribs, stir-fried bok choy, and shredded pork with eggs.
Zuo Ling took a closer look at the yellow heart cabbage. The cabbage was very fresh, and it must have been grown by Ding Youyi using his plant powers.
She was furious. Look, this is her own grandfather and father!
The two sons and one daughter ate like pigs in the cafeteria, while they had a feast.
Zuo Ling's face was pale, but Ding Youdao's was even paler. He pointed at Zuo Ling and said, "You, you, you... what are you going to do?"
Since she came back, her cheapskate father has been pointing at her and saying "you, you, you..."
I couldn't be bothered to waste my breath on him. Ding Fengguo was old and had trouble walking, so he lived on the first floor.
Zuo Ling went straight to Ding Fengguo's bedroom. She took the new bedding if there was any, and took away the bedding if there wasn't.
Ding Youdao was furious:
"You rebellious daughter, put her down! Put her down right now! Nansheng, you just watched her run amok. Don't you have any sense of hierarchy? Quick, quick, quick, take her down!"
