Quick Transmigration: Underdog Turns out to be Untouchable

Chapter 101: Chapter 101: Apocalypse, I Am Not the Holy Mother 7

At this moment, Meng Tao’s superior expression had diminished significantly, but his face still looked displeased as he shouted at Lin Shuangshuang, ”Lin Shuangshuang, where are you going? How can you be so undisciplined! It’s too dangerous to run around outside like this, bringing Mi Lu along to face danger together. How can you be so willful and thoughtless! Come back quickly, it’s safer for everyone to be together! Don’t harm others because of your own recklessness!”

Meng Tao’s words were not just a reproach to Lin Shuangshuang; there was also an intention to sow discord between her and Mi Lu.

Lin Shuangshuang’s expression didn’t change, and she felt nothing from Meng Tao’s words. Her heart, having experienced the cold betrayals and scheming of the apocalypse, had already hardened. Others’ words could no longer shake her heart.

Besides, Lin Shuangshuang believed in Mi Lu. In her past life, many people tried to provoke her relationship with Mi Lu, but Mi Lu never fell for it. Such a crude attempt by Meng Tao wouldn’t make Mi Lu distance herself, so she paid it no mind.

Lin Shuangshuang didn’t pause for a moment as she turned and descended the stairs, completely ignoring Meng Tao as if he were air. It was Mi Lu who was a bit upset and turned to scold Meng Tao, ”It’s rare to see a man as hypocritical and cowardly as you...”

Mi Lu had initially intended to give Meng Tao a long reprimand, but not wanting to waste time talking nonsense with him, Lin Shuangshuang, who had already begun descending, said calmly, ”Mi Lu, let’s go!”

Only then did Mi Lu realize that the person who should be most annoyed was already almost out of sight. Startled, she quickly dragged a chair and rushed after Lin Shuangshuang!

Left behind, Meng Tao’s face turned red with restraint, then changed to an ashen hue. Lin Shuangshuang treating him as air made him both embarrassed and furious. He had thought that his words were something Lin Shuangshuang would naturally heed, wasn’t she secretly in love with him?

A girl as ordinary in looks and family background as Lin Shuangshuang should have been grateful for his favor and followed his every word, right? Although Meng Tao had never expressed such thoughts, he subconsciously felt so.

”Boss, wasn’t Lin Shuangshuang supposed to have a crush on you? Why is she so indifferent? She just left on her own. It doesn’t seem like she has a crush on you, did we misunderstand?”

Meng Tao was already feeling stifled inside, and this only added to his frustration as he snapped in anger, ”When did I say she had a crush on me? It was just you guys making a big deal out of it! Stop gossiping like women!”

Saying this, Meng Tao slammed the door and returned to his seat, closing his eyes to relax. The friend who had spoken was also left looking awkward and upset.

However, these people’s family backgrounds were not as good as Meng Tao’s. Though they were called friends of Meng Tao, they were merely his cronies and had no right to challenge him.

Moreover, Meng Tao’s family had significant power, and when something like this happened, they would definitely send someone to rescue Meng Tao. If they wanted to leave, they had no choice but to please Meng Tao.

Lin Shuangshuang, having left the teaching building, was unaware of the undercurrents between Meng Tao and his so-called friends. After kicking away a few grasshoppers and crickets, she and Mi Lu finally reached the small supermarket beneath the building.

The glass door of this small supermarket was broken, and without a door, there was no defense. Therefore, the people in the store had all fled, leaving only a few mutated grasshoppers and crickets jumping around inside.

Lin Shuangshuang entered and quickly disabled the few bugs inside, leaving them unable to fly or jump, and then left them to Mi Lu to build her courage. She herself began searching around and managed to find a pile of salt and various seasonings.

This small supermarket could be considered small but comprehensive, even containing a section for selling travel bags and daily necessities. Lin Shuangshuang found two large travel bags and took out a few packs of needles and thread.

Primarily, Lin Shuangshuang noticed that these two travel bags weren’t any branded goods, so to avoid any quality issues on the road delaying things, she directly sewed both travel bags again to ensure their sturdiness. Only then did she fill the two travel bags with all sorts of seasonings, mainly salt.

In the post-apocalyptic world, food was everywhere as long as you had the ability to catch it; however, seasoning was extremely scarce. Thus, seasoning was not only a daily necessity but also a hard currency that could replace money in the future.

After clearing out the seasonings, Lin Shuangshuang also cleared out the lighters from the store. In the post-apocalyptic world, there were often times when fire was needed. At such times, if you didn’t have a lighter on you, you’d have to make fire by friction.

Making fire by friction is a skilled task, not everyone can master it, and it is extremely time-consuming. Therefore, such a convenient and portable lighter became the second most popular item after seasonings.

Lin Shuangshuang carried a backpack filled with salt, lighters, and bottled water and tossed the lighter backpack to Mi Lu, who had just dealt with a few insects and was gagging, preparing to leave the small supermarket with her.

Lin Shuangshuang planned to find an outdoor goods store to gather some camping tents, blankets, pots, pans, and alcohol stoves, which would allow her to conveniently cook the mantis eggs in her possession, to feed Doumi and also appease both her own and Mi Lu’s stomachs.

Doumi, raised delicately by Lin Shuangshuang, never ate raw food, only consuming cooked food prepared by Lin Shuangshuang. In the previous life, after the apocalypse, Doumi refused to eat raw meat. Lin Shuangshuang’s plan was well thought out, but just as they were about to leave the small supermarket, Mi Lu’s stomach let out a loud growl!

Lin Shuangshuang had been reborn in the morning, and now there were still two hours before it was noon, so it wasn’t yet time for lunch. This made Lin Shuangshuang look at Mi Lu with some confusion.

Mi Lu’s face was a bit red as she rubbed her nose, embarrassed, and said to Lin Shuangshuang, ”I skipped dinner last night while trying to lose weight and rushed out early this morning without eating, so I’ve been hungry for a long time, Shuangshuang. You see it’s almost lunchtime. Why don’t we stay here and eat something before leaving?”

Lin Shuangshuang knew Mi Lu wanted to eat the food in this supermarket. She had already noticed Mi Lu’s gaze sweeping over various snacks continuously. However, Lin Shuangshuang didn’t intend to take these things. Although Mi Lu didn’t know the reason, she accepted Lin Shuangshuang’s arrangements without objection, which made Lin Shuangshuang very satisfied.

Lin Shuangshuang wasn’t afraid of having a weak companion; she was afraid of having a weak companion who always acted self-righteous. Mi Lu was always the best companion and friend.

However, Lin Shuangshuang didn’t intend to let Mi Lu eat those junk foods. The pre-apocalypse foods contained too many chemical additives, far less nutritious than the mutated insect meat and egg plants and animals.

In addition to being more nutritious, eating these mutated plants and animals could enhance physical fitness, making people stronger, faster, boosting immunity, reducing illness, and accelerating wound healing.
