Chapter 483: Chapter 483: Refusing to Be Together
"You guys go ahead, I’ll keep watch here."
The stairs below, a long distance for the insects to cover if they wanted to come up.
Moreover, they were all wet, which added some obstacles. freēwēbηovel.c૦m
Jiang Yuan did this, fearing the worst.
On the other side, Song Yi hurried to knock on the door, and Jhiang Yuan followed him.
"Mianmian, open the door quickly, Mianmian, hurry up."
She shouted for a long time but no one came, and she couldn’t help feeling anxious.
"Song Yi, if it doesn’t work, kick the door in!"
It was an emergency, she had no other choice.
"Don’t panic, there’s some noise."
Sure enough, within five seconds, someone came to open the door.
"Mianmian, how are you?"
"I’m fine, Sister Yuan, how did you guys come here?"
"I called you but you didn’t respond, there are insects everywhere below, I was worried so I came over."
Upon hearing that there were insects everywhere below, she too became afraid.
"What happened?"
As she spoke, she even peeked outside.
Indeed, the situation was terrifying.
"Oh my, why are there suddenly so many insects?
Come inside."
Coming to find her was indeed risking their lives.
A few people hurried inside. Zhang Tiezhu was still lying in bed, seemingly not yet awake.
"How is Tiezhu now?"
At this, Ye Mianmian sighed.
"Not too good, he’s been asleep since yesterday and he’s quite hot.
I gave him some medicine, and he’s been groggy."
Song Yi went over to check and even lifted the blankets.
He just felt this person was becoming stranger, his body growing redder.
"Mianmian, why is your walkie-talkie not on?"
"It is on."
As she spoke, she picked it up from the bedside.
"Oh, what happened, I remember I turned it on."
She herself didn’t understand what happened, and Jhiang Yuan didn’t think much about it either.
"The situation is a bit special now, you and Tiezhu, maybe you should pack up."
"No need, Sister Yuan, the insects on the ground, I don’t think they can come up anytime soon.
It’s still safe here, let’s wait until the rain stops and then we can figure out a way to get rid of the insects."
Obviously, she knew what Jhiang Yuan was thinking about taking them, but she couldn’t just go like this.
Jiang Yuan, not quite understanding, thought she wanted to go to the base.
"Yuanyuan, now is not a good time to go out.
Mianmian is right, it’s not the last resort yet, it’s better to wait."
Song Yi also looked at her and shook his head.
That was a last resort for survival, she knew the priorities.
Since that was the case, then let it be.
"Ok, then let’s all stay together for now, at least we can look out for each other."
"No need, Sister Yuan, Tiezhu is recuperating.
The house is also small, just go back, there’s nothing to worry about."
Under the same roof, He Lan was also unwilling.
The focus of her senior brother was all on Jhiang Yuan, how could she bear it.
Thus, she also chimed in.
"Yeah, the situation with the insects isn’t certain yet.
I saw, they all got washed up by the rain, it’s not a big deal.
That one on the stairs must have been accidental.
We’re better off splitting up, it’ll be more convenient."
Seeing that everyone had this attitude, she couldn’t insist on anything.
"Ok, Mianmian, turn this on, and make sure you respond when I call you, alright?"
"Don’t worry, Sister Yuan, I definitely won’t turn it off again."
It was all sincere, and Ye Mianmian understood the severity of the situation.
There, several people went out, also very cautiously.
Even at the staircase, they dealt with the bright red insect before going back.
"Jiang Yuan, wait a moment for me,"
As he spoke, he took another walkie-talkie and handed it to him.
"Keep this with you, contact us anytime if there’s a problem."
He was quite surprised and asked back, "How do you guys have this?"
"It’s a long story, now is not the time to explain."
Song Yi also came over to help her, they couldn’t possibly tell him they had hoarded it.
"You better go back, saving your life is what matters most."
"Okay, take care."
At this point, the four of them separated.
He Lan did not go back to her own room but followed Jiang Yuan to his.
"Stop looking, they have already left."
Song Yi waved his hand, pulled the person inside, and checked cautiously before finally closing the door.
Actually, He Lan being with Jiang Yuan was within her expectations.
After all, in this situation, it was very dangerous for a girl to be alone.
Jiang Yuan, even without romantic love, had a responsibility towards her.
As long as He Lan spoke up, he would not refuse.
"Song Yi, I’ll go and let my parents know,"
"Sure!"
She hadn’t returned all night yesterday, and the two elders were quite worried until they saw her.
Thinking about last night’s indulgence, her face turned red instantly.
"What exactly happened, my girl, tell us quick!"
"Mom, it’s like this, it rained outside, and a lot of insects appeared on the ground."
She succinctly repeated the situation, there was no helping it, everyone needed to be informed.
Sure enough, Jhiang Xingzhi and Qin Yue were also sighing nonstop.
"My girl, why didn’t you come home last night? It was so dangerous!"
"Mom, it’s okay, Song Yi was there, and we were observing the situation downstairs."
Well, she was still embarrassed to speak the truth, so she had to gloss it over like that.
"Oh right, Mom, please make us some food.
I still need to go check the situation later."
"You have to go out again?
Otherwise, let’s just stay here, call Xiao Song in too, what do you say?"
Knowing her mother was worried about her warmed Jhiang Yuan’s heart.
"Mom, it’s fine, we need to know the situation outside.
It’s not too serious now, let’s just leave it as it is.
If the insects truly become uncontrollable, we’ll naturally come in then."
After experiencing so much, everyone knew she had a plan.
And now, she was also the mainstay of the family.
Jhiang Xingzhi sighed and didn’t say much, instead he went over to comfort Qin Yue.
"Alright, let’s do as the child says.
Go make the food and bring Xiao Song’s portion out as well.
Yuanyuan, go freshen up, the two kids are still in the room."
"Okay~"
Her dad truly understood her intentions, coming back this time, she definitely had to check on Xiao Nuan, as she was her lifeblood.
The two kids were very well-behaved and usually played on their own without needing much coaxing.
Jingjing, having been to kindergarten, could even teach Xiao Nuan some things, looking quite professional.
Knowing she was busy with serious matters, they didn’t make noise either.
Qin Yue made two bowls of dumplings and sour soup, perfect for the weather.
She immediately brought it out, and Song Yi was quite surprised by the sudden appearance of Jhiang Yuan.
"You came out so soon?"
"Yeah, I brought you food."
They both sat down at the table, enjoying this simple moment.
"Sigh, with so many insects, the restaurant must have stopped too.
I wonder if they have anything to eat."
