Chapter 48 -48: Dad Picks Her Up to Take Her Home
By the time she had finished all this, it was already 5:10, and the person still hadn’t arrived—strange!
She sat down to rest and saw that two messages had been sent to the group, both mentioning her.
Song Yi, “Jhiang Yuan, we estimate that we’ll come to pick you up around 10.”
Ye Mianmian, “Sister Yuan, when we were coming back, the overpass below collapsed and we need to take a detour.
Everyone is too exhausted to proceed, and we’ve just finished cleaning up, so don’t worry. We’ll get ourselves together and then come get you.”
The source of this c𝐨ntent is freeweɓnovēl.coɱ.
Alright, it’s Ye Mianmian who is attentive enough to clarify the whole situation.
Suddenly, another message popped up.
Zhang Kaiyang, “Sister Yuan, don’t be afraid, eat some more to keep your strength up—we’ll be there soon…”
Jhiang Yuan, “Okay, I’m not in a hurry, take a rest if you must. I’m currently on the 10th floor, the lower levels are flooded.”
Ye Mianmian, “We can’t rest anymore, Brother Song said that the wind is very strong today, it could get severe. Sister Yuan, find a safe place to hide—we are on our way…”
Jhiang Yuan, “Okay, be careful…”
If there’s a problem with the overpass, then coming from Lushan Garden, the only way is to take the back road.
Indeed, that’s quite a detour, and with so many small roads there, passing by the nearby villages would certainly be tough.
Well, if that’s the case, she can’t afford to stop either.
After drinking some water, she went into the space where there were enough materials for an upgrade by now.
Moreover, if she didn’t upgrade soon, she would run out of floor space entirely.
The space was very warm, so she took off her windbreaker.
“Metal, wood, water, fire, earth…”
This time, it’s “fire” that’s in short supply…
The space already expanded over two hundred square meters, and she had found quite a number of lighters.
Before, matches had to be lit, so does this mean…
Jhiang Yuan hurried out of the space, as the 10th floor had a 1.2-meter fish tank.
Kaiyang had mentioned it was too small or else it could have been used as a bathtub.
She wanted to give it a try this time.
After storing the bathtub, she picked some children’s clothing that she hadn’t collected before, all a bit small for Xiao Nuan.
She hadn’t looked previously due to time constraints—she had taken them from a maternity and baby store.
Then she lit some tissues with a lighter and threw them in; the flames flared up after a while.
Luckily the room had no draughts, the fish tank was tall enough, and she didn’t put too many clothes in it.
When the fire was at its fiercest, she entered the code. The fire that had been blazing suddenly came to a halt, as though it was about to go out.
“Yay, it worked!”
She felt like she had discovered a new world. On the 15th floor, there was a pajama streaming studio, and the 19th floor had a household bedding set manufacturer.
Jhiang Yuan didn’t dare to delay any longer and ran up quickly. As long as the fire didn’t die, she could upgrade other things while it was burning.
She was thrilled—this way, her space could continue upgrading indefinitely.
And the rainwater from outside would suffice; she just needed to collect some to bring inside.
However, the smoke from burning the clothes wouldn’t disperse easily.
It all drifted upwards; the outside was misty, and she had no idea where it had spread to.
“Ding, ding, ding…”
The timer started ringing, leaving her puzzled—what’s going on? Why was there no symbol for land anymore?
There was a symbol for a country lane, but it was only limited to her land, and it even transformed the farmland into a stone path, which wasn’t worthwhile.
Many new symbols had appeared, and she searched for a long time but couldn’t find any for land. What was going on?
She checked outside and the rooms were about five hundred square meters in total. Could it be a bottleneck, or was the space just this size?
Furthermore, the front yard had stopped around three hundred square meters, and a space had emerged behind about two hundred square meters.
Forget it, no point in pondering; it was already 5:30. She needed to quickly get ready and check the other two buildings.
With the current space, I guess it should be possible to fit most things.
I’m not in a hurry. Whatever can be used, I’ll just throw it in here and sort it out later.
The wind seems to have really picked up, and it’s indeed a bit difficult for me to paddle the boat alone.
It looks like I do need to speed up.
The remaining two buildings have pretty much the same mix of items, all sorts of things.
But there’s a lot of internet-famous live streaming products, Jhiang Yuan doesn’t have time and just grabs whatever she sees.
If they come over after ten, each building could take two hours.
That’s only just enough to gather most of the products, the tea rooms, and clear out the offices.
In fact, there are still many good items left at the workstations, which I’ll have to abandon with tears.
Of course, if I come across them, I’ll still take some.
What I’m picking is rather selective: clothes, cotton fabrics, food, and jewelry are the most important.
Next, if I encounter them, I’ll selectively take some.
Of course, the items needed for space upgrade are ones I absolutely can’t miss.
I found quite a few high-tech items at Building A, as well as saplings and some hydroponically grown plants.
Leaving the rest aside, these should all be collected, who knows if they might come in handy to plant later on.
In the midst of all this busyness, I dare not forget the time.
As soon as it hit ten, Jhiang Yuan hurriedly packed up and headed back.
To get from Building A to Building C, you have to go through Building B, where the wind seemed to have grown even stronger.
Struggling a bit, I didn’t dare delay and rowed back with all my might.
Thankfully, I had two energy bars earlier or this high-intensity work would have been unbearable!
Finally reaching Building C, I was completely exhausted.
Quickly storing everything, I ran back to the 10th floor, guessing that people would soon arrive.
Jhiang Yuan suddenly remembered, Ye Mianmian’s company on the 18th floor, she hadn’t been there yet.
“No, I can’t miss this; there’s still room in my space, I need to hurry.”
After thinking, I took a sticky note and wrote that I was going up to the 18th floor.
Heading upstairs, I found plenty of beauty products here, as I had taken a lot from other places before.
Seeing them now, I didn’t feel the need to take much, but there were a few expensive and well-known ones, so I grabbed some of those.
The workstations were clearly already searched, probably by Ye Mianmian.
Entering the office, it looked untouched.
The boss must have been a man, with plenty of stuff around, and I even found a dagger.
I collected the solid wood furniture and soil, always good to have some gains from the place.
Just about to leave, I noticed there was a finance room across the way.
Immediately turning, I didn’t say much, but there was quite a lot of cash here, almost more than sixty thousand.
Not bad at all, a perfect end to the day’s work.
Just as I reached the 10th floor, I noticed no one had come yet, and it was already 11 o’clock.
Tearing down the sticky note and tossing it into my space, Jhiang Yuan didn’t care to rest because she thought she saw a beam of light earlier.
Hurrying to the window to check, sure enough, it was Song Yi and the others returning.
Keeping their word, they’re a decent bunch of companions.
Wait, it seems like there are four people, could it be…
Jhiang Yuan hurried downstairs to greet them.
Now we have to come up from the 8th floor, I just need to go down two floors.
“Dad, why did you come?”
