Chapter 270: Chapter 268 We Are Not Here for a Vacation
Qin Lang glanced at Wen Wanli and turned to Jiang Yan:
“Sister Yan, the woman was rescued from a small district in Anming during the earthquake. Together with her, there seem to have been three children, two boys and one girl, all very smart and agile. They should be studying at the base school now.”
Jiang Yan cast a glance toward the direction of the Hive classroom, her mind seemingly deep in thought.
The three children were likely Zhou Haoyue, Zhou Haotian, and Zhao Xiaofei.
To have survived and to receive education at the base was indeed a stroke of luck amidst the misfortune.
This also demonstrated that Yaoben Base had extraordinary strength and background.
After all, in the current post-apocalyptic environment, many people struggled even to survive, let alone study.
Su Dai looked at Qin Lang with suspicion, “Qin Lang, how come you remember so clearly?”
“Because the scars on her body are shocking and unforgettable,” Qin Lang’s brow furrowed, his voice lowered, “In any case, she’s a pitiful woman.”
“What about her children?” Su Dai paused, “After all, even the father of the children is unknown…”
She didn’t finish her sentence.
For most people, facing such an apocalypse, that child would have likely been abandoned long ago.
“The reason I remember her is also because, when the female warrior brought her onto the boat, she asked who the father of her children was, and she said that she didn’t know which man’s children they were, but she did know that they were her children.”
Jiang Yan: “…”
Su Dai: “…”
The others exchanged glances and silently took a breath.
Looking at Wen Wanli’s belly, she seemed to be about four or five months along.
She leaned against the edge of the railing, one hand slowly caressing her stomach, her gaze unwaveringly fixed on the inside of the Hive classroom.
“Miss Jiang, shall we go settle down first?” Knowing they had come across old acquaintances, Zhao Zhichao didn’t want to push too hard; he mentioned it only after estimating that the timing seemed appropriate.
“Okay,” Jiang Yan nodded, her eyes heavy as she glanced at Wen Wanli.
Su Dai tugged at Jiang Yan’s hand, “Jiang Yan, why don’t we take them with us? It’s not often that we meet old friends in a foreign place. The conditions in Area A should be better than here.”
She had not been so sympathetic before.
But somehow, after going through some things, her heart had inexplicably softened.
Especially the feeling of encountering old friends in a foreign land, it stirred something indescribable in the heart.
Sun Jingtao coughed lightly, giving her a ‘don’t even think about it’ look.
Su Dai didn’t understand and looked toward Jiang Yan, “Jiang Yan?”
Jiang Yan stopped in her tracks, furrowing her brows at her, “Su Dai, our arrival at the base is for a mission and task, not for a vacation.”
Su Dai was stunned for a second, somewhat puzzled, “Mission and task?”
She seemed to guess something but didn’t fully understand.
“Be it Song Qian, Kong Wu, Qin Lang, or even Captain Zhao who just led us into the base, none of them is idle. They are escorting us, which, frankly, means we are occupying the base’s resources.
Living in Area A would also consume resources. I don’t believe that we should use these privileges based on mere old friendships and neighborly ties.”
Having finished, Jiang Yan added:
The source of this c𝓸ntent is frёeweɓηovel.coɱ.
“Besides, they’re doing well here; I don’t think it’s necessary to take them with us.”
What would they do, take them to Area A then?
It was clearly unrealistic.
However, here, surrounded by familiar and comfortable people, perhaps they could live more comfortably.
And from the previous look in Wen Wanli’s eyes, which was calm and gentle,
It was no longer vacant and filled with fear as before.
It suggested she was quite content with her current situation.
Su Dai realized her mistake, a flicker of regret crossing her eyes: “I’m sorry, Jiang Yan, I assumed too much.”
“It’s alright,” Jiang Yan gave her a glance and said:
“I trust Mo Jingsheng, and I trust the management of Yaoben Base.”
With that, she quietly looked at Wen Wanli one last time and lifted her leg to walk forward.
Seeing this, Ye Qing and the others quickly followed.
