162 Li Anran Going Offline (1)
When the time came, he would say that he wanted Zhao Hao's buddies to protect Li Anran, a woman with a child. Ye Xingchen would even bring Li Anran's child over so that Li Anran could hold the ski poles.
The journey was long. It was normal for Li Anran to encounter some accidents along the way.
A few days passed very quickly. After Ye Xingchen told Zhao Hao that they were moving to the safety fortress, he began to let Zhao Hao and his trusted brothers start packing.
The journey was also very smooth. This time, there were not many people who followed Ye Xingchen. Ye Xingchen originally only wanted to bring some people over to clean up the place. After all, there was still so much trash piled up there.
"See if you have anything else to bring. Give it to me and I'll put it in the space for you."
It didn't take long to pack up. Because the apocalypse had been here for so long, everyone basically didn't have anything useful. The most precious things were some clothes to keep warm and food that was hard to come by.
Most of the clothes were worn on their bodies and the food… It was just a small amount. At most, one backpack would be filled up.
It only took two to three hours for Zhao Hao's order to be passed down and for everyone to pack their luggage. It was so fast that Ye Xingchen was a little surprised.
Ye Xingchen only told them that there was a mission for them. He didn't tell them that they were moving. However, it didn't matter if he said they were moving when they arrived there. After all, they didn't have anything valuable. At this time, even if it was a kitchen knife, everyone would keep it on themselves day and night.
When Li Anran heard that she was going out, she was extremely unwilling. After all, it was not easy for her to live in this villa. If she was asked to go out now, she might not be able to come back.
Zhao Hao could not persuade Li Anran no matter how hard he tried. However, Ye Xingchen had also instructed him not to reveal the news of moving to anyone. After all, Ye Xingchen knew that the people in this community were willing to listen to him because he had enough strength to protect the owners in this community.
However, when they knew that Ye Xingchen was leaving, they would probably jump up to stop him.
If Ye Xingchen left, what would happen to them? Ye Xingchen had no intention of bringing them along!
Li Anran rolled her eyes. She put down her clothes and then placed Little Treasure, who had just finished feeding, on the sofa.
"Aiya, since I'm going to help, it's not convenient for me to bring Little Treasure along."
"Besides, the weather is so cold outside now. Little Treasure finally recovered from her illness. What if she catches a cold again when she goes out and has a fever again?"
"How about this? It's not that I don't want to go with you guys, and I'm not a freeloader. I'll just leave Little Treasure here for now, and then I'll go out with you guys."
Li Anran had a good plan. She thought that Ye Xingchen and Lin Sijia had never had children before. If she left Little Treasure at their house, Ye Xingchen would definitely open the door for her when she came back.
Zhao Hao looked at Little Treasure, who was placed on the sofa. He stammered several times and asked Li Anran to bring Little Treasure with her, but Li Anran did not listen. She even kept brainwashing Zhao Hao, saying that medicine was precious now. There was not much medicine left from the last time Ye Xingchen treated the child. It would be terrible if Little Treasure got sick again.
Little did Li Anran know that her plan was exactly what Ye Xingchen wanted.
When Zhao Hao brought Li Anran to the entrance, Ye Xingchen sized Li Anran up and down without batting an eyelid.
"Sister Anran, where's your Little Treasure?"
Zhao Hao opened his mouth, but Li Anran interrupted him.
"Aiya, Little Treasure is still young. I'm just following you guys to help, so I left Little Treasure home. I'll take care of Little Treasure after I'm done with you guys."
"After all, Little Treasure is still so young. It's not convenient for me to carry a child when I go out to help."
Ye Xingchen listened to Li Anran's words and curled his lips in an ambiguous manner.
Li Anran was smart. She didn't want to be refused entry if she left, so she kept Little Treasure at home as collateral.
But what Li Anran didn't know was that her plot was exactly what Ye Xingchen wanted.
Ye Xingchen first brought Lin Pei, Lin Sijia, Zhao Hao, and a few of Zhao Hao's brothers to the safety fortress.
Then, Ye Xingchen turned back and set off with the remaining people and Li Anran, who had been waiting.
This time, Ye Xingchen didn't ride his snowmobile. Mo Qi stood beside him. After counting the number of people, Ye Xingchen distributed the skis.
Li Anran stood in the crowd of men as a matter of course. After all, Zhao Hao was their elder brother, so they naturally treated Li Anran as their sister-in-law.
The route this time was different from the first time.
Ye Xingchen rode the snowmobile far ahead of them on the previous trip. He had already roughly memorized the road and what was where before coming back.
This time, Ye Xingchen was going to lead them to a gathering place for mutants.
Although it was called a gathering place, there weren't many of them. Ye Xingchen only saw 20 to 30 mutated people wandering in groups on that street when he passed by.
After a while, when Ye Xingchen passed by this time, he really happened to bump into those 20-plus mutants.
The bag that Li Anran had carried was filled with a lot of raw meat.
At this time, everyone's sense of smell was not very sensitive, so no one could smell it. However, it was different for mutants.
All of a sudden, the mutants who were wandering aimlessly changed directions and ran in the direction of Ye Xingchen and the others.
To be precise, it was not in the direction of Ye Xingchen, but in the direction of Li Anran and the others who were lagging behind by a long distance.
Because Li Anran had never skied before, her movements were not that fast. She was still secretly cursing Ye Xingchen in her heart. She scolded him for being stupid. He clearly had such a good thing as a snowmobile, but he did not take it out to drive her. Instead, he insisted that she use these lousy skis.
Since Li Anran was slow, there were naturally people who maintained the same speed as her to protect their sister-in-law.
The mutants were drooling and running over. Zhao Hao's buddies were still pulling Li Anran in the direction of Ye Xingchen when they were suddenly blocked by a group of mutants.
