The Pregnant Mommy Survive on Unlimited Supplies Chapter 166 - 166 164 I can afford to raise a child

Chapter 166: 164 I can afford to raise a child Chapter 166: 164 I can afford to raise a child [Gong Yi: Answer the phone, let’s clarify things.]

[Gong Yi: You can’t be so unreasonable. I have a share in this child too. I’ve made contributions. Just let see him.]

Hua Mi thought about it, as Gong Yi didn’t seem like soone who didn’t want the child. She took out the most recent ultrasound report and sent him a photo.

Gong Yi didn’t reply to her ssages anymore.

Hua Mi was busy calling the Contractor,

“Your team only has 500 people?”

Sister Hua felt underestimated; she didn’t think the Contractor knew how much money she could make in a day.

In these tis, she was earning money slightly faster than the world’s richest man before the disaster struck.

So what was a monthly salary of five million? She could afford fifty million per month.

Hua Mi mused,

“Baobao, you’re too inexperienced, getting all worked up over just 500 people.”

“It’s not just the Clearing Team. Your construction crew needs to speed up too, work on more infrastructure. My walls, you need to make them ten ters taller!”

“If you really are short of hands, just hire more. As long as they are honest and diligent, bring them into our construction team.”

In fact, Hua Mi felt that the two-ter wall outside the Lotus Shengxing Supermarket was too short.

It needed to be continuously raised.

When mutant animals appeared later, even a ten-ter wall would be too short.

Hua Mi, now dressed in harem pants, donned sterile boots and went to the supermarket’s backyard.

During this ti, Gong Yi was much quieter; he didn’t make any calls or send texts.

Hua Mi waited for Gong Yi’s reaction after he had seen the ultrasound report.

Her supermarket’s backyard was like an orchard; amidst the pervasive dark fog, fruit trees stood tall, laden with fresh fruits.

Hua Mi pondered how to manage her newly acquired ten square ters of Black Land.

Because on each square ter, a type of fruit was planted and as the roots grew robust, the fruit trees also beca taller and more lush.

Surely the square ters couldn’t be so close together, or wouldn’t the trees start competing?

Thus, the magical Black Land thinned itself out.

As the fruit trees on the land grew bigger over ti, the gaps between square ter plots automatically widened.

So the several compact patches of Black Land were now sporadically scattered, like crooked teeth, across Hua Mi’s backyard.

Especially near the giant Orange tree, it was utterly barren.

All the Black Land had been pushed aside by the giant Orange tree.

Hua Mi was sowhat vexed; she could only find an open space in the front yard and settled down the ten square ters of Black Land, planting oranges, plums, Myrica rubra, mulberry trees, tea trees, jute, rubber trees, camphor trees, large-leaved linden, and Lingzhi.

She planted all seeds she could plant in her hands; seeing so tree seeds, Hua Mi planted those too.

The land couldn’t just be left barren.

And planting trees was good; they would provide wood for building houses in the future.

After planting the trees, Hua Mi received a call from Qin Zhen.

In human society, there’s a type of networking called “ladies’ socializing.”

Qin Zhen stayed in Xiang City with two objectives, to nourish her pregnancy and to build a good relationship with Hua Mi.

From Zhou Cheng’s account, the Commander couple of City C learned that Hua Mi was carrying Gong Yi’s child.

The two of them are an official couple.

Before leaving Xiang City, Ma Yongchun spent 200,000 at the RV supermarket to buy two Universal Signal Connectors.

To facilitate communication between himself and his wife and also to ease her initiation into diplomatic relations with other wives.

In a phone call, Qin Zhen greeted Hua Mi warmly,

“Our Old Ma and Commander Zhou have gone back for the survivors of City C. Now, I am the only one left in Xiang City.”

“Thanks to Mrs. Gong’s generous donation.”

“Mrs. Gong, I’ve found a place to stay in Xiang City and have gotten in touch with a group of ladies from City C, whose husbands are influential figures there.”

“Knowing you know Mrs. Gong, they all wish to et her. Would Mrs. Gong like to co out for a gathering and play mahjong?”

Mahjong?

Sorry, Hua Mi doesn’t play!

Hua Mi, who has lived two lifetis, doesn’t feel the least bit shy about not knowing how to play mahjong.

In her view, it’s an activity that signifies loss of ambition; she not only refrains from participating but also has no interest in it.

Thus, Hua Mi politely declined Qin Zhen’s invitation, and sincerely reminded her,

“You need not call Mrs. Gong, as I have no relationship with Gong Yi. I am neither his wife nor his girlfriend, let alone his lover.”

“To be precise, I’m rely a supplier trading necessities with Boss Gong.”

Sex among adults isn’t considered a heinous cri.

Initially, she and Gong Yi hadn’t even reached an agreent on this matter, yet now it had escalated, spreading into the elite circles of City C.

Hua Mi could imagine how those ladies in their circles spoke about her.

And thus, she was even less interested in wasting her ti and energy on social endeavors.

Qin Zhen paused on the phone, stunned by Hua Mi’s frankness,

“Miss Hua jests. You two have a child, and Commander Gong has no other woman but you, this…”

She is a woman living a luxurious life among the social elite.

Thus, Qin Zhen can’t quite comprehend Hua Mi’s perspective. In these tis, a woman should seek a reliable shelter to ensure her survival.

Much like herself, if Qin Zhen’s man wasn’t Ma Yongchun, if he wasn’t the Commander of City C, she might already be living miserably, struggling daily to et basic needs, like the other survivors in City C.

It’s precisely because of Ma Yongchun’s presence that Qin Zhen has the ti and energy to engage in social activities among the wives of Xiang City.

And can still live a life of prestige and comfort.

“What does having a child change?”

Before hanging up the phone with Qin Zhen, Hua Mi slowly stated,

“From the start, I never planned to use a child to tie down the Commander. He is his own person, and I am mine. I can raise a child on my own, so why should I need a man to help ?”

“This isn’t targeted at Mrs. Ma, but I was born this way. Rely on a mountain, it collapses; rely on the ocean, it dries up; rely on people, they flee. Thus, I have always relied on myself.”

“I don’t need a child to secure a man’s affection, nor do I need one to look after in the future, nor do I need a man’s help to change the child’s material conditions.”

“I want a child simply to feel less lonely, to have a family bond so I can think of soone during my struggles.”

“For them, I also need to live well, don’t I?”
