Chapter 164: On the Road
Translator: Dragon Boat Translation Editor: Dragon Boat Translation
On the rest of the journey, everyone’s speed was obviously much faster.
Ye Xingchen, who was at the front, felt refreshed. Even the long road seemed to have become much shorter.
Ye Xingchen wasn’t worried about how he would report this to Zhao Hao. After all, he had so many eyewitnesses.
Besides, this Li Anran was really sensible. She didn’t even need Ye Xingchen’s guidance to know how to court death.
Although Ye Xingchen had deliberately lured those mutants over, pushing Zhao Hao’s two brothers out to block the danger for her was something Li Anran had taken the initiative to do.
At that time, even if Ye Xingchen didn’t say anything, Zhao Hao’s brothers would definitely spill the beans. Oh, and there was also Mo Qi. A child’s words were unquestionable, so he could say whatever he wanted.
A few hours wasn’t considered slow. When they passed by Ma Guoming’s neighborhood, Ye Xingchen led everyone in to rest.
Ye Xingchen did not expect that the district manager Lin Wen, whom he had randomly picked out, would actually have some skills.
Previously, many people in Qionghua District were dissatisfied with Ma Guoming’s jurisdiction, but they got along quite well under Lin Wen.
It had only been a week or so. When Ye Xingchen came here again, he clearly felt that the atmosphere seemed to have improved a lot.
“Brother Ye, you’re here.”
When Ye Xingchen led everyone over, someone saw Ye Xingchen from afar and hurriedly opened the door of the district. Someone immediately ran over to inform Lin Wen.
Ye Xingchen left them a lot of food when he left last time, so everyone was still thinking about when Ye Xingchen would come back.
“It’s fine. You guys can rest. I’m just passing by.”
Ye Xingchen also carried a backpack. When he returned, he calculated the time. He definitely wouldn’t be able to arrive before mealtime, so he simply carried an empty backpack on his shoulder. He thought that he would find a place to rest and eat something before continuing his journey.
They didn’t go too far inside. Ye Xingchen brought them into the sentry post built behind them. The layout was simple. There were only stools and tables, and a simple staircase was built. It was only half a floor higher than the snow.
Ye Xingchen was sitting on the stool, everyone sat opposite him. Only Mo Qi sat beside Ye Xingchen.
In fact, they had wanted to ask just now, because they had always thought that the person beside Ye Xingchen was Dr. Lin Sijia. However, Mo Qi had made a move just now. When they were on the way, they began to pay attention to the person beside Ye Xingchen.
Mo Qi was already eleven or twelve years old. According to normal age, she was already in the sixth grade of primary school. Before, she was malnourished like a bean sprout. However, after living with Ye Xingchen for such a period of time, Mo Qi’s nutrition had caught up. She even ate better than before in the orphanage, so she had grown a lot.
Ye Xingchen reached into his empty backpack and took out a few bags of packaged bread from his space.
These were all the things that Ye Xingchen had bought from the supermarket. They were frozen hard like stones. Ye Xingchen took them out and threw them in front of the group.
He and Mo Qi didn’t eat these. Even if they ate bread, they definitely wouldn’t eat the frozen bread that was hard to chew.
When Ye Xingchen distributed the bread to them one by one, their eyes were a little wet with tears.
Such a big loaf of bread was something they usually couldn’t get!
The food they usually received was at most one-third the size of the bread if they were lucky. Sometimes, they were not so lucky. When they were waiting in line, they might only receive a small packet of biscuits.
“Thank, thank you, Brother Ye.”
They woke up early in the morning and did not eat much. However, now that they were holding such a big piece of bread, they could only take small bites of it.
One reason was that it was too cold now. They were not indoors and there was no electricity. They could not put the bread into the pot to steam.
Secondly, such a big piece of bread could last them four to five days if they were to eat it sparingly. They couldn’t bear to eat too much.
After giving them food, Ye Xingchen didn’t care about them anymore. Mo Qi wanted to eat hamburgers, but Ye Xingchen couldn’t have her eat so differently in front of everyone.
After all, although everyone had received his kindness, when they saw that he ate and used so much better than them, it was inevitable that his kindness to them would be greatly reduced in their hearts. They would feel that Ye Xingchen was doing what he should. After all, people were all like this.
“Bear with it. We’ll eat when we arrive.”
Ye Xingchen took out two packaged breads from his backpack. They looked similar to the ones in their hands, but Ye Xingchen had put them into his space before the apocalypse, so when he took them out, the bread felt a little warm in such a cold temperature. After all, this was the room temperature at that time.
“Hurry up and eat. After you’re done eating, we’ll be on our way.”
If this was before, Ye Xingchen would probably think that this was some kind of delicacy. After all, in his previous life, Ye Xingchen almost ate sh*t.
In his second life, even if Ye Xingchen didn’t have a lot of delicacies every day, he had good food and drinks every day. After experiencing a lifetime of hunger, Ye Xingchen didn’t intend to mistreat himself in terms of food in this life.
Ye Xingchen finished the bread in two or three bites. Although he didn’t feel full, he didn’t plan to eat more. After all, the bread would never expire even if it was placed in the space. However, he was used to eating delicious food, so he still couldn’t appreciate the packaged food that was full of chemicals and preserving agents.
Besides, Ye Xingchen had already rested well. He still wanted to move into his new home as soon as possible. He had been looking forward to it for a whole week. In this week, whenever Ye Xingchen closed his eyes to sleep, he would dream of moving into his new home.
“Is everyone done eating? We’ll set off after eating.”
Lin Wen was very busy. Although Ye Xingchen had given him a lot of food, he also knew the principle of sitting idle and going hungry. He was one of the people who went out with Ma Guoming to look for food, so he was very familiar with it. Now that he had become the manager of this community, he naturally shouldered the task of finding everyone’s food.
This also led to Ye Xingchen having rested and setting off and still not seeing Lin Wen. It was only when Lin Wen returned that he found out that Ye Xingchen had been there..
