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

Chapter 386: Chapter 178: Sweeping the Underwater Area_3

Back when she was trapped in her home in building 76, she could hear the sound of people trying to break down the door every day.

If the Golden Python hadn’t scared those people away several times, she couldn’t imagine what kind of tragic fate she would have faced.

It wasn’t until Mr. Liang killed Liu Erlong and Wang Ze, those villains, and took control of building 76 that she truly understood the importance of peace and order.

Thinking of this, she looked around and suddenly saw Liang Yuan, who had just returned, and couldn’t help but smile.

”Actually, the one you should be grateful to is him.”

The middle-aged woman and the young waitress instinctively looked up and followed her gaze.

”Who is he?”

”Mr. Liang, Mr. Liang Yuan,” Huang Han said.

There was a hint of admiration and respect in her expression.

”If it weren’t for him, I and all of us might be living worse lives than you.”

”You had plenty of supplies to eat in Henglong Building, but at that time, we had completely run out of food and were at risk of being bullied to death by villains.”

”It was Mr. Liang who rescued us from that dire situation.”

”I will never forget the day he knocked on my door, saw me for the first time, and noticed my fear. It wasn’t a threat; it was concern.”

Huang Han smiled, reminiscing about the past, feeling like it had been a long time.

Beside her, Wu Ying, Wang An, and others also showed expressions of remembrance.

Reflecting on their past selves compared to their current lives was truly a drastic change.

Similar scenes repeatedly occurred among the survivors of Meidu Garden and Henglong Building.

In the midst of it, Liang Yuan’s image was solidified among all the survivors of Henglong Building.

His prestige was also continuously elevated amidst the praise from the residents of Meidu Garden.

Liang Yuan naturally didn’t care about these things; he bypassed the crowd and quickly returned to the shop where Yang Mei and the others were located.

Yang Mei’s body had completely recovered.

After all, she had awakened her mutant ability, making her constitution surpass that of ordinary people and allowing her to break down toxins faster.

”Little brother, you’re back! Are you hungry? I made some food.”

She said this while pulling Liang Yuan into the shop.

On the table, several dishes were already set, including sauerkraut fish, ham and scrambled eggs, stir-fried peanuts, and cold wood ear fungus salad.

The rice was steaming hot as well.

Liang Yuan was surprised and immediately noticed Dong Jie pressing his hands against the rice cooker, powering it.

Beside them, the induction cooker had just stopped working and was still steaming.

Clearly, the little guy was being used as a power source.

”Xiaojie, come over and eat; you’ve worked hard. By the way, why is there sauerkraut fish?”

Liang Yuan asked with a smile.

Yang Mei also laughed and said, ”We found some pepper on the 24th floor before. We used to eat grilled fish and braised fish a lot. I thought you’d be tired of them, so I made this sauerkraut fish to change things up; give it a try.”

Liang Yuan smiled and said, ”When you cook, I don’t even need to taste it to know it’s delicious.”

Yang Mei’s eyes immediately turned into crescent moons as she smiled.

She called Dong Yan, Dong Jie, Ding Yan, Zhao Kai, and Liu Feifei to come over and eat together.

Zhao Kai still wanted to be polite, but Liang Yuan directly said, ”Go and bring Dr. Yang, Shi Haizhu, and Gu Feng as well.”

Zhao Kai then stopped being polite and went to call them.

This time, they didn’t call Old Ma, Cai Zhi, and others.

Firstly, because their constitution was weak and hadn’t fully recovered, so they could only eat light food.

Secondly, the ones gathered here were those who had contributed this time.

This meal was also a way to reward everyone.

”Mr. Liang, I heard from Zhao Kai that the raft is still there?”

At the dinner table, Yang Shenmin ate a bite of rice and quickly asked the most crucial question.

Liang Yuan nodded and smiled, ”Yes, it’s still there. When I came back, I noticed the raft wasn’t damaged, so I hid it.”

Yang Shenmin sighed with relief and smiled broadly, ”As long as it’s still there, that’s good. Otherwise, we’d have to expend a lot of effort to make another one.”

”Making another one wouldn’t be a big deal,” Shi Haizhu couldn’t help but say.

Yang Shenmin was speechless and said, ”Do you think making a raft is easy? Moreover, do you know how much time we’d waste in between?”

”Now, with the current water level, there are giant octopus monsters appearing that are several meters long. As the water level rises, who knows what other monsters will appear? How will we cope?”

Yang Shenmin had a clearer perspective; he knew the mutated creatures in the water would only become stronger as time went on.

Staying in the building would definitely lead to death.

The only option was to go to higher mountains.

Shi Haizhu hadn’t thought about it so much and blurted out, ”With Mr. Liang, what does it matter if there are octopus monsters, right, Mr. Liang?”

Liang Yuan couldn’t help but smile and said, ”Dr. Yang is right; we should reach Yangshan as soon as possible.”

”Firstly, the mutant creatures in the floodwaters will become stronger, and secondly, I worry that there won’t be much vacant space left in Yangshan.”

”If we get there early, there might still be space, and the competition won’t be as fierce.”

Yang Shenmin kept nodding, ”Mr. Liang is right; this is very important too. Yangshan isn’t a particularly high mountain. Strictly speaking, it can only be considered a hill, with limited living space.”

”I’ve been to Yangshan before; there are villa areas and other neighborhoods nearby. Although the population density is not high, there are definitely a lot of people, and there are local villagers at the foot of the mountain.”

”These people will definitely move up the mountain early to occupy favorable positions.”

”It’s better for us to reach there as soon as possible.”

Ding Yan and others nodded in agreement with this idea.

Liang Yuan also smiled and said, ”Tomorrow, we’ll see how everyone is recovering. I’ll have Old Ma and Cai Zhi check the raft. If there are no issues, we’ll leave as soon as possible.”

”Great, then to wish us a smooth journey ahead, I propose a toast.”

Zhao Kai suddenly took out a few bottles of beer from behind him and laughed.

Ding Yan exclaimed with joy, ”Where did the beer come from?”

Zhao Kai laughed and said, ”Found them in the restaurants downstairs. I chilled them a bit, come and try.”

Shi Haizhu was thrilled, ”I didn’t expect to be able to drink at this time. Zhao Kai, your frost superpower is really useful; drinking this is so refreshing.”

Everyone burst into laughter, enjoying the meal happily.
