Translator: Dragon Boat Translation Editor: Dragon Boat Translation

Zhao Hao was excited when he received the news, but the most important thing was that he knew that Ye Xingchen was still alive and safe. He sent a few greetings to Ye Xingchen, but Ye Xingchen did not reply. He could only follow Ye Xingchen’s instructions and call a few security guards he was usually good with to go to Zhang Yi’s place.

Lin Sijia climbed out of the window with difficulty. She had been tying and dragging people for the entire afternoon. She had not eaten a single grain of rice for two days and almost passed out.

Stepping on the snow, Lin Sijia didn’t dare to delay. She gritted her teeth and rushed to Ye Xingchen’s house.

The road was not long, but the fluffy snow was not easy to walk on. The short road took half an hour to travel.

As soon as she approached Ye Xingchen’s house, the alarm rang. Ye Xingchen, who was pretending to sleep on the sofa, instantly opened his eyes.

“She’s here.”

Ye Xingchen didn’t open the door rashly. He first looked at the surveillance cameras around the house to make sure that no one was following Lin Sijia before picking up his phone to answer Lin Sijia’s voice call.

“I, I’m at the door.”

It was the door to the second floor. The passageway that had been dug out earlier had been filled up by the newly fallen snow. There was some snow blocking the door to the second floor of Ye Xingchen’s house, but not much.

“Yes, come in.”

The door was unlocked, and Lin Sijia opened the door with trembling hands. A wave of heat that she had not felt for a long time hit her face. In an instant, Lin Sijia was so excited that she almost cried.

She was afraid that the wind and snow outside would blow away the warmth, so she hurriedly turned around and closed the door. She turned around and wanted to enter the house, but something cold pressed against her forehead.

“Take off your clothes.”

Ye Xingchen stood in front of Lin Sijia and looked down at her. The two of them were only an arm apart. He held a loaded pistol against Lin Sijia’s forehead. If she didn’t listen to his instructions, he would shoot her.

Lin Sijia was stunned at first, but she reacted a few seconds later. With a bitter smile on her face, she took out a bag from her pocket and handed it to Ye Xingchen.

“You are really careful.”

Inside the bag were all kinds of weapons that Ye Xingchen had ordered Lin Sijia to pack through the video call. Lin Sijia stood at the door and began to take off her clothes one by one.

Until she was only wearing a thin shirt and a pair of pants.

“Hmm? Keep stripping.”

Ye Xingchen was indeed careful. After all, Lin Sijia had hung up the call with him for some time. No one could say for sure if she would hide a weapon with her during this time. No matter how kind Lin Sijia was, this was not a reason for Ye Xingchen to trust her unconditionally.

Lin Sijia hesitated for a few seconds, but in the end, she gritted her teeth and stripped herself down to her underwear.

Her eyes were shy and her face was as red as blood. “Th-that’s enough, right… I don’t have a place to hide any weapons.”

Lin Sijia was a smart person, and Ye Xingchen admired her in his heart.

“I’m sorry, we have to be careful in the apocalypse. Hello, Doctor Lin, welcome to the team.”

Ye Xingchen put the pistol away at his waist and gave Lin Sijia a hug.

As expected, Lin Sijia’s figure was indeed very good, and her looks were indeed not inferior to Chen Rou’er’s. Even when she was not full and did not have warm clothes, her red face still had a hint of youth.

Ye Xingchen let Lin Sijia pick up the clothes that she had just taken off and put them on. Then, he pulled her hand and walked into the house. When she turned her head, Ye Xingchen took the opportunity to put the bag of weapons into the space.

“Go take a shower first. The bathroom is over there.”

Ye Xingchen pointed in the direction of the bathroom. After Lin Sijia walked in with an embarrassed look, Ye Xingchen picked out a smaller nightgown from the space and placed it on the stool outside the bathroom.

“The clean clothes are at the bathroom door. Use them after you’re done.”

Lin Sijia still felt like she was in a dream as she stood under the shower. The snowstorm was like a dream, and she was living in a strange man’s house in order to survive.

Hot water sprayed out from the showerhead, accompanied by Lin Sijia’s tears. She had not taken a shower for more than half a month.

Lin Sijia hurriedly washed her hair and took a shower. After all, this was not her own home. She also knew how precious water was now, let alone hot water.

Ye Xingchen didn’t want to rush Lin Sijia at all because he had a large amount of water stored. Moreover, the water used for bathing was the water that was boiled from the ice and snow in the collector installed on the roof when he renovated the house. No matter how long Lin Sijia took a bath in there, it wouldn’t waste the water stored in his space.

He looked at his phone and realized that Zhao Hao and the others had already arrived at Zhang Yi’s house. Zhao Hao had even taken a photo of Zhang Yi’s house.

“Yes, take as much as you can. It was Zhang Yi who snatched it from me.”

Ye Xingchen knew that Zhao Hao was honest. If he told him that these were all Zhang Yi’s own inventory, Zhao Hao might not have been willing to take them.

“Sigh, if you can’t take more of it away, just leave it for now. 1’11 think of a way to come back in the future.”

Zhao Hao came and went many times. On one hand, he was afraid that he would make too much noise and alert the neighbors. On the other hand, he wanted to help Ye Xingchen take more things back.

Lin Sijia had already finished showering, and her entire body was scalded pink. She stood at the bathroom door with an uneasy expression.

“Have you cleaned up? Come, come here.”

Ye Xingchen held the gun in his hand again. This time, it was the one that he had taken from Zhang Yi. He had checked it just now. There were still seven bullets left in it.

Even though Lin Sijia no longer had anything that could threaten Ye Xingchen, Ye Xingchen was still worried.

Lin Sijia followed the direction he pointed at and obediently sat on the sofa two meters away from Ye Xingchen. She put her legs together and revealed a careful expression.

“You should know that I let you stay here because you have some value to me.”

“But you have to remember that this is my home. It’s my kindness to let you stay here, so don’t try to repay kindness with ingratitude. I can let you stay here, but 1 can also make you get out. 1 can also kill you with a shot.”

Lin Sijia’s heart skipped a beat, and she replied submissively. “I know.”

Of course, Lin Sijia knew that even if this was just a transaction, she would still gain more benefits. Ye Xingchen indeed did a great favor to her by letting her stay in this house.

Ye Xingchen pointed upstairs.

“I’ll bring you to your room in a while, but I have to tell you first that every room in my house has surveillance cameras. Every door is made of special materials, and I have the only keys.”

Ye Xingchen took out a bunch of keys from his pocket and waved them in front of Lin Sijia.

“You can only leave the room with my permission. There’s an independent bathroom in the room. I’ll open the door for you every day when you eat.”

“If you disagree,” Ye Xingchen pointed in the direction of the door. “You can leave now..”
