Chapter 30: Chapter 30 Song Yi is Surrounded Chapter 30: Chapter 30 Song Yi is Surrounded She could only reluctantly part with it, having no choice but to give up.
After coming out, she didn’t go back imdiately.
There were several other stores she targeted—one was a milk tea shop from which she took all the fruit tea, as well as the uncooked tapioca pearls, taro balls, coconut jelly, pudding, and milk tea powder. She left none behind.
When she turned around, she noticed the machines over here.
If she could own them, wouldn’t she achieve “milk tea freedom”?
Overwheld with secret joy, Jhiang Yuan directly took all the machines, including the milk tea cups and the waffle cone makers.
Next, she went to a snack shop known for its small snacks and dried fruits preserve which were particularly popular; today, they were all hers at a bargain.
It’s just that she’s penniless, unbearably so.
Finally, she visited a clothing store. The clothes were made in-house, but what caught her eye weren’t the clothes—it was the sewing machines.
She also took various colored threads and several bolts of low-profile but substantial fabric.
Clothing, food, housing, and transportation—she believed these things would definitely co in handy in the future.
After she finished with all this, it was already 5:20 AM. She had to hurry back, or else the early risers would discover her.
By that ti, the water in the deeper areas had risen to chest level.
Frightened she might be swept away, she tossed her backpack into the storage space and took out her climbing stick.
It was sothing she had bought before, inspired by Song Yi. With careful steps, she finally made it ho.
In fact, once she passed the entrance to the neighborhood, the water level improved a lot, reaching only to her waist.
If not for poor visibility and the fear of bumping into things, she could truly have swum back.
She returned as quietly as possible this ti, trying not to wake anyone.
The water on the first floor was already 20 centiters deep—if no asures were taken soon, sleeping in the beds would beco impossible.
Reaching the 21st floor required a great deal of effort; by the ti she arrived at her destination, she was gasping for breath.
Luckily, the two oddballs on the 20th floor didn’t co out to cause trouble; otherwise, she as a woman probably couldn’t handle them.
Back ho, she found that her dad and mom were still asleep, so she tore off the posted sticky notes and tiptoed back to her room.
The waterproof clothing had held up well except for where it t the rain boots, allowing so water to seep in; the damp fabric was clinging to her body, which was extrely uncomfortable.
Her thermal clothing was also wet, so she rushed for a hot shower.
Her limbs were slightly numb, and she cursed her poor physical condition; continuing like this was no good.
After tidying up the bathroom, she felt sowhat revived.
She changed into a dry and warm coral fleece pajama, stuck on a heating pad, covered herself with a thick blanket, and began to sleep.
Staying up all night like that was tough on soone in their thirties like her.
She slept fitfully, not very soundly, as there was still so much she needed to do; naturally, she couldn’t sleep well.
Qin Yue had already known she went out last night; how could she not notice her daughter’s unusual behavior?
However, she didn’t want everyone to know, so she pretended to be unaware.
She didn’t call out to her; Jhiang Yuan wasn’t foolish—she had left two big bags of food at the entrance hall.
She was woken up by Xiao Nuan around 11 AM.
“Mommy, mommy…”
Her head felt swollen and uncomfortable.
“What’s wrong, baby~”
Her voice was a bit hoarse as she spoke.
Xiao Nuan was holding the strawberry bear Jhiang Yuan brought back yesterday, her face earnest.
“Mommy, soone’s here, Grandpa asked to wake you up~”
Jhiang Yuan’s mind suddenly cleared. Soone had co—who?
Who would co for a visit at this ti?
Jhiang Xingzhi didn’t know anyone here, so he definitely wouldn’t let anyone in.
Not having ti to think further, she put on slippers, picked up her daughter, and went out.
Her parents were at the entrance, intently watching the surveillance; hearing the noise, they quickly beckoned her over.
“Girl, the young man next door brought back a lot of stuff, and people saw it. Now quite a few people have surrounded him,”
So that’s what happened, okay, she misunderstood.
Jhiang Yuan didn’t dare to be careless and also looked through the surveillance to see the situation outside, where a middle-aged man was leading the discussion.
Song Yi watched calmly from behind the door at the people in front of him.
“There’s a supermarket upstairs, you can go there yourselves,”
“Bro, you bought so much, you can’t finish it all in a short ti. Why not share so with everyone?
Don’t worry, we’re not asking for it for free, everyone will pay you.”
Hearing about money, Jhiang Yuan’s eyes lit up.
She was out of money, but she could sell things to make money.
The later it got, the less money was worth, even to the point where no one used it.
If she could earn money, wouldn’t the numbers in the space increase?
Although it would expose herself, the temptation of more ti was clearly greater.
These past days, she had also found that it was temperature-controlled inside, neither cold nor hot, especially comfortable.
In a crucial mont, it could be a lifesaver.
With that in mind, she quickly went back to put on a tracksuit, and tied her hair up high.
“Click!”
The door opened, and the group of people facing off looked over.
Seeing Jhiang Yuan, Song Yi felt sowhat embarrassed, “Sorry for disturbing you!”
“It’s no problem~”
Actually, if it weren’t for the fact that there was another household involved, Song Yi would definitely have chosen to ignore them.
“You’re Jhiang Yuan, right? Your neighbor has bought a lot of supplies but he doesn’t want to share with everyone. Help us persuade him, will you?”
What, how shaless can you get to say sothing like that?
“Who are you?”
The other person was obviously stunned, not expecting Jhiang Yuan to ask such a question.
“I’m a resident of the 6th floor, my na is Sun Yian, a gold-dal lawyer.”
Wow, still showing off his sense of superiority now, utterly speechless.
Jhiang Yuan’s eyeroll did not go unnoticed by the man, but he still maintained a facade of calm.
“A lawyer, huh? Which law says you have to share your own things with others?”
No one expected her to retort like that, all were taken aback.
“Jhiang Yuan, don’t get wrong, we’re not just asking for it for free, we’re willing to pay.
It’s a special period, we should help each other, right?”
“Haha, you know that, huh!
In a special mont, we should indeed help each other, but moral hijacking is a bit too much.
As a lawyer, don’t you understand that?”
“What’s your point, you’re determined to side with this man, aren’t you.
Humph, I think you and he have sothing going on, don’t let her deceive you.
Yesterday, I saw with my own eyes, these two brought back a big basin full of supplies, they are in this together.”
The woman from the 20th floor was speaking, and Jhiang Yuan was fed up with her.
“If you can’t speak properly, then shut your crow’s mouth.”
“Humph, I think you’re the one who’s feeling guilty.”
The woman hugged her shoulders, looking complacent, as if the crowd was backing her up.
“So being with so many people here, doesn’t that an you’re involved with everyone?
Not bad at all, playing both sides, how does it taste? Want to share with everyone?”
