Chapter 69 -69: Inviting Them to Look for Supplies
At the moment, they had not only to collect supplies but also materials to upgrade their space.
More tasks had piled up, making the wish to do nothing and just stay at home incredibly difficult.
The day after next, after breakfast, Jhiang Yuan brought over some bean sprouts grown by Qin Yue.
They could barely count as vegetables, but having them was certainly better than nothing.
“Sister Yuan, what brings you here?”
The door was opened by Zhang Kaiyang, who apparently had just woken up, his hair all messy.
“I brought some bean sprouts, my mom grew them; they’re for you and Mianmian.”
There had been a knock at the door, and both of them had looked through the peephole.
Ye Mianmian was also very happy to hear about the bean sprouts.
“Sister Yuan, keep them for yourself, we still have plenty of self-heating hot pots and self-heating rice.”
“We still have some at home, these are especially for you.
My mom said it’s too cold, vegetables probably won’t grow, so she asked me to bring you some bean sprouts.”
Jhiang Yuan felt it was better to mention it, otherwise, things could become ambiguous, all mixed up with favors.
“This weather definitely won’t do, it’s too cold.
Sister Yuan, it’s no big deal.”
After exchanging a few more words, Jhiang Yuan left without entering the house.
She hadn’t seen Grandma Ye today either, which felt a bit odd.
After delivering to those two, it wouldn’t be right to leave Song Yi out, so she took a little more and knocked on door 2102.
“Jhiang Yuan?”
The person who answered was in pajamas but didn’t look like they had just woken up; there was a warm air coming faintly from inside the house.
It seemed that his home had heating.
“My mom grew some bean sprouts, not many, just enough for everyone to try some.”
Song Yi looked at the plate she was holding, the bean sprouts plump and white, very appealing.
“Thanks, wait a second!”
Saying that, he took the plate and went inside.
He returned in less than a minute with the empty plate and two bright red apples.
“No need, keep them…”
Her home indeed had lots of fruits; apples were not lacking.
“They’re for your little one, thanks for the bean sprouts.”
He suddenly smiled, as if he could see right through her.
“Okay, thank you!”
This man was dangerous, staying longer wouldn’t be wise.
Back at home, she washed the apples, cut them into pieces, and let everyone share them.
Her parents didn’t touch them, just kept insisting Xiao Nuan eat.
“We still have plenty anyway, they will spoil if we don’t eat them.”
Saying that, she forcibly fed them a few pieces before stopping.
They still needed to exercise during the day, and Xiao Nuan was also quite interested in the treadmill.
Jhiang Yuan turned it on and coached her to walk; the little girl was red-faced in less than ten minutes.
At the start, they shouldn’t push her too hard.
She let her rest a bit before starting to run herself.
She didn’t know what else to practice, but running was always a safe bet.
If strength was needed later, she could adapt better.
“Honey, come here, someone is coming.”
Jhiang Xingzhi heard some noises and quickly checked from the entrance hall.
Indeed, it was Sun Yian again, accompanied by five or six people.
“Is that the one who came to pry the door the other day?”
Her father pointed to the last person; it had been dark that day, so he hadn’t seen clearly.
“It must be him, probably here today just to discuss this matter, I’ll go out and check.”
Anyway, as long as she didn’t open the door, there would be no danger.
Moreover, this issue had to be resolved, otherwise it would become a lingering problem.
That day, the plan had been to simply kill those three people, but they unexpectedly escaped and dodged a bullet.
“I’ll go with you.”
“Okay!”
They reached the corridor, where the knocking sound was now very clear.
Jhiang Yuan opened the interior door, and the two groups faced each other for a conversation, while Song Yi came out with Little One.
His house didn’t have surveillance, but the dog’s sense of smell and hearing were far more acute.
The three of them didn’t speak, but nodded at each other, signaling a united front.
“Lawyer Sun, what brings you here today, trying to do what?”
Sun Yian had been elected by everyone; he certainly had his merits.
He stepped forward slowly, with a smile on his face, speaking gently.
“Jhiang Yuan, it’s like this, your neighbor from the 15th floor said you had someone beat up their grandmother.”
“That’s right, so…”
Sun Yian hadn’t expected her to admit it so readily and so openly.
“You need to understand, the woman is an old lady, weak by nature, and what you did was a bit too much.
She’s now resting at home, recuperating, and by all rights, you should offer compensation.”
Jhiang Yuan rolled her eyes, looking at Sun Yian with an unfriendly gaze.
“I’m here today to help everyone resolve this issue, and your attitude really isn’t helping.”
“You tell me how to resolve this, first, I didn’t personally hit the old lady, and you’re not going after those people in building 9 but coming to bully me. Do you really think I’m an easy target?”
Song Yi scoffed. Was she also considered an easy target?
“Second, that old lady disrupted my business, babbling on and on. Wouldn’t she have been hit if she hadn’t been asking for it?
Third, you’ve already been to my house to pick the lock at midnight, and now you’ve brought a group of people here again. What are you aiming for?”
They had come before, in the middle of the night.
The purpose was apparent.
Sun Yian hadn’t expected that they had already made their move without his knowledge.
The dignity of a leader was challenged, and he looked somewhat angry.
He turned directly to the man at the back and said, “Since you’ve already come over by yourself, I think you might not need my help.
Also, if someone is doing business and it doesn’t affect you, don’t meddle!”
The man obviously wasn’t convinced, and then, being publicly lectured, he couldn’t save face.
“Lawyer Sun, we’re asking her for compensation, and she doesn’t want to pay.
Look at this woman, how arrogant she is!”
Sun Yian, experienced in reading people, could easily see through his petty schemes.
He glanced at him displeasedly, turned around, and once again adopted a pleasant demeanor.

“Song Yi, Jhiang Yuan, Uncle Jhiang, we also came here today for another important matter.
We’re preparing to go out and find some supplies, and I wonder if you’d be interested. We could team up and look out for each other.”
Jhiang Yuan was a bit surprised, glancing at Sun Yian by her side, clearly puzzled.
“I mean, even if the rain is heavy, the wind is also strong. Don’t you think it’s very dangerous to go out?”
“That’s why we should go together, for added security.
It’s been many days now, and there’s no more food at home; we wouldn’t take the risk otherwise.”
“Right, if you go, we can stick together and watch out for each other.”
Actually, they were hoping Song Yi would go, given his strong fighting ability. Jhiang Yuan was just incidental.
“We’re not planning to go, it’s too dangerous.”
Song Yi said flatly, everyone understood his point.
“Yes, we’re not going, you go ahead.”
