Apocalyptic Flood: Sexy Beauty Neighbor's Midnight Plea for Food

Chapter 94: Chapter 81 Self-reliance, Comforting Sister Mei_2

”There are still three families living in Unit One. If you run into them, don’t be afraid. Just tell them: if they dare to mess around in Unit One and lay a hand on you, I’ll personally take action to punish them.”

Liang Yuan gave her a deep look: ”I hope the next time I see you, you are exchanging fish for food.”

Song Wen was overwhelmed with surprise and tears flowed out. She bowed deeply to Liang Yuan.

”Thank you...”

She understood Liang Yuan’s good intentions.

Although he didn’t lend her grain, he pointed her towards a way to survive.

Catching fish to exchange for grain, this is a way to achieve self-reliance.

No need to sell her dignity, no need to sell her body.

Her gratitude towards Liang Yuan was no less than towards Granny Li.

Liang Yuan smiled and accepted her gratitude openly, saying: ”Go back. I’ll be here watching, no one dares to snatch your bread.”

Song Wen was moved again, nodding with tears in her eyes. She took the iced pear with one hand and the bread with the other, and headed home.

Granny Li watched this scene and couldn’t help but smile. She turned her head to look at Liang Yuan, gave him a thumbs up, and said with a smile: ”Xiaoliang, well done. I thought you really were going to ignore this matter.”

Liang Yuan smiled: ”Rather than letting her get something for nothing, it’s better to make her think of ways to be self-reliant.”

”She has been hiding at home for half a year. If she starts begging and losing her dignity the moment she steps out, she will probably continue to act like that for the rest of her life.”

”Even though it’s the apocalypse, I still hope everyone can live with dignity, with a bottom line, live like a human being.”

These words moved Granny Li and Yang Mei who was beside her.

Granny Li gave Liang Yuan a thumbs up again: ”Xiaoliang, you are a good guy. A young man like you should join the Party.”

Liang Yuan was immediately amused, and Yang Mei couldn’t help but laugh out loud.

Liang Yuan and Yang Mei returned home, and everything seemed to quiet down.

Yang Mei quietly returned to the kitchen to handle five mutant fish, clearly not in high spirits.

Liang Yuan felt curious and walked to the kitchen door, asking: ”Sister Mei, what’s wrong?”

Yang Mei, with reddened eyes, lowered her head to deal with the mutant fish, not saying a word.

Seeing her silent, Liang Yuan couldn’t help but walk over and suddenly gave her a hard pat on the butt.

”Ah—”

Yang Mei was startled and quickly turned around.

It was only then that Liang Yuan noticed she was already crying.

He quickly hugged her soft waist and lowered his head, asking: ”What’s the matter?”

”Nothing...nothing?”

”Nothing? You’re already crying, are you mad that I didn’t lend the grain?”

Yang Mei shook her head and said in a low voice: ”Little brother, am I the kind of person without dignity you mentioned?”

Liang Yuan was taken aback and then realized what she was upset about.

Because she came to borrow grain from him at the beginning of the flood.

The words he said earlier, while encouraging Song Wen, unintentionally hurt Yang Mei’s dignity.

Liang Yuan couldn’t help but laugh: ”Of course not.”

Yang Mei sobbed: ”I am. I was shameless and came to borrow grain from you. I didn’t self-rely...”

Liang Yuan immediately coaxed: ”Who said that? When you came to borrow grain, it was because Li Zhiqiang forced you, wasn’t it?”

”If anyone’s shameless, without dignity, it’s that bastard Li Zhiqiang.”

”Besides, when it comes to self-reliance, Sister Mei, are you not self-reliant here with me now?”

”I provide you with food, you provide me with a warm home.”

”Look at you, you have to cook in the morning, massage me at noon, and be exhausted by night.”

”Every morning you can’t even get up, isn’t that self-reliance?”

”Most importantly, you’re my woman now, isn’t it natural for me to support you?”

”What does Song Wen count as? How could she be the same as you? She’s not even related to me, should I support her just because she doesn’t think about self-reliance?”

Liang Yuan’s words made Yang Mei overjoyed, her cheeks turning red.

Her mind was swimming, especially at the part about being exhausted at night and not being able to get up in the morning, making her face flush deeply.

Especially the final sentence, that Song Wen couldn’t compare to her, made her feel elated.

”What... what are you talking about...”

She mumbled bashfully, and before she could continue, a large hand had already slipped into her waistband.

Her body trembled immediately, and she couldn’t think anymore.

Although it was a scorching summer, the kitchen was filled with springtime romance.

The sound of wind, rain, and heavy breathing resounded in the air.

...

Song Wen returned home, feeling light-headed and weak.

She sat down to rest for a while, looked at the bread in her hand, and swallowed with difficulty.

There was truly no food left at home at all; the bit of bread she had kept was now spoiled, causing the current predicament.

She unwrapped the bread, this time daring not to save it for the next meal and ate it all in one go.

She drank some iced pear, finally feeling a bit better.

After resting for a while, she regained some strength.

”Brother Liang Yuan is right, I need to be self-reliant. There’s no more danger in Unit One. If others can go fishing, why can’t I?”

She encouraged herself, then rummaged through her belongings, and soon found a rabbit cage.

”If I modify this cage, maybe I can catch a few fish.”

”I remember the man next door liked fishing, he should have fishing gear at home. I wonder if anyone has stolen it?”

She quickly got up and ran to the door of apartment 3102 opposite her.

She knocked on the door, but there was no response from inside, it seemed they had moved out.
