Chapter 173 -172: How Deep is the Scheme of Chief Tang Da (6) Chapter 173 -172: How Deep is the Scheme of Chief Tang Da (6) With so many eyes around, she didn’t even have the time to disappear for a moment.

She didn’t know what the space inside was like anymore.

When Ji Dong finished washing his face and came back, he was suddenly stopped by Su Shu.

A fair and slender hand, holding a piece of chocolate, was extended in front of him.

Ji Dong, puzzled, looked up.

Su Shu smiled and said, “What goes around comes around.”

“No need,” Ji Dong politely refused, seeming to think he had been too cold, he thought for a moment and added, “The group captain has ordered us to take care of you.”

The mention of Tang Zelin made it even more embarrassing for her.

She did as Ji Dong did, stuffed the chocolate into his military coat, retreated, and said, “Take it, it’s not worth much, can replenish your strength.”

Ji Dong’s gaze flickered but he didn’t say anything more. He calmly took out the chocolate from his pocket and stuffed it back to Su Shu, then nodded politely and turned to go back into the tent.

How could it not be valuable? Food was the most valuable thing now.

Having her kindness rejected, Su Shu didn’t take it to heart, probably understanding that the troops might have their disciplines. There would be long days ahead.

Indeed, it was natural for them to give, but taking from the people was different.

Not wanting to trouble others, Su Shu wandered outside for a while. It was too cold, so she decided to go back to the tent to sleep. However, just as she was about to return, she suddenly noticed a deep blue light tore open a slit in the dense curtain of darkness.

She was astonished, standing at the tent entrance, staring unblinkingly.

When Ji Dong came out again after a while, he saw from a distance that she still hadn’t gone in and was looking up at the sky, so he also looked up.

His eyes brightened.

…

Those who lived in darkness had finally endured through the long and fearful night and welcomed a new light.

When the sun again rose in the east and hung in the sky, everyone in the settlement came out of their tents cheering and jumping for joy!

The sun is out!

We don’t have to be so cold anymore!

The tough days have finally passed! Many people went around spreading the news, regardless of whether they knew each other or not. At that moment, everyone felt joy for the new light.

Su Shu was also very happy, but she wasn’t as excited as the others.

The sun had finally risen, and the sky had also turned a deep, deep blue, beautiful as if she had never seen such a stunning scene before.

It’s a pity that after the sun rose, this earth was no longer the same earth as before.

Su Shu’s heart was still heavy.

Li Xiaoxia was delighted; Luo Gang had specifically taken her out to see the sun.

For a time, countless people emerged in the settlement, and the warriors on duty were also very happy. They would no longer have to patrol shivering in the night chill and winds.

Perhaps because everyone was too happy and in good spirits, even the usual frictions and disputes today had passed over politely.

After Su Shu and Luo Gang collected the relief food and water, they even remarked to Li Xiaoxia, “Everyone’s quality is super high today.”

Li Xiaoxia laughed and said, “Look at how you marvel, the day has brightened, the flood has receded, the disaster has passed, and life will get better. Who knows when we’ll be able to go back home.”

Su Shu didn’t join in on the topic, thinking to herself that it would be a while before they could return to Linjiang.

Because soon, the government would become frantic and anxious due to the destroyed grain fields and the food crisis.

But she didn’t say anything unpleasant when everyone else was happy. Rare were the days that allowed for relaxation, why should she dampen the mood? Besides, she wasn’t idle with nothing to do.

Now that the sun was out, it was a good time to take out the clothes and blankets to air out, as they had gotten quite damp in the past few days.

Xiao’ai, led by two youngsters from the Luo Family, went out to the open space to play games, hands full of dirt, looking like a little mud child, playing with great enthusiasm.

Watching them, Li Xiaoxia suddenly felt sentimental: “Children’s worlds are the best, simple and joyful.”

Su Shu shook off the dust from the clothes, agreeing, “Yes, if it were me, I would also like to return to my childhood.”

The two chatted idly, the afternoon time passing with a drowsy and leisurely atmosphere.

Suddenly, shouts came from a distance, followed by countless strong footsteps approaching rapidly.

Su Shu raised her head. Had Tang Zelin and his group returned?
