inch of land worth a fortune. The extravagance is so palpable that just one glance sends shivers down your spine, let alone the fact that it's located on the most prime piece of real estate. Ordinary...Ning Shu gave the seeds to the boy.
He didn't expect that a few days later, Ji Huai would actually give him an apple.
And it was a big, red apple that looked crisp and juicy.
More importantly, this apple looks like it was just picked. It looks incredibly appetizing, even though Ning Shu doesn't have much of an appetite for food. But after so many days in the apocalypse...
And, even in the midst of food scarcity, he couldn't help but swallow with a pang of hunger.
But Ning Shu still pursed her lips, hesitating with great surprise and saying, "This apple, did you grow it"
He was shocked, after all, he had only given Ji Huai an apple seed a few days ago. Even if it sprouted, it wouldn't be possible to do so in just a few days.
Unexpectedly, Ji Huai's eyes lit up as he looked at him, like a puppy seeking praise. His tone was sticky and he said, "This is what I grew, Ning ge."
Ning Shu thought it was unbelievable.
He couldn't help but say, "...How did you grow it"
Ji Huai leaned closer, his gentle breath falling onto the young man's neck, bringing a tingling sensation.
Ning Shu couldn't help but slightly step back.
But the boy leaned into his ear, his breath warm and heavy. He lowered his eyes, whispering softly, "Ning Ge, I'll only tell this secret to you."
"It was planted by me in the space."
Ning Shu had to admit she was shocked.
He knew that Ji Huai had a space, but it was only a few square meters. And it couldn't hold any living things. He couldn't help but look over there.
Ning Shu hesitated for a moment, then still voiced her doubts: "But your space isn't...."
"Isn't it just for putting things in"
Ji Huai lowered his head, and as he spoke, his warm breath kept brushing against the young man's skin. One could even see Ning Shu's sensitive skin reddening slightly, and the former narrowed his eyes.
Brother Ning is too sensitive.
He remained motionless, lying on the young man's body like a little dog. Then he lowered his eyes, his eyelashes fluttering, his delicate and snow-white face was particularly stunning and captivating.
Just by looking at this face, Ning Shuguang felt how good Qi Huai Sheng was.
But Ji Huai was like a blank sheet of paper, relying on him, then leaning into his ear: "Ning Ge, I discovered recently that I can grow things in my space..."
He opened his eyes nervously and said, "But I didn't mean to hide it from Ning Ge..."
"Seasoned, with a somber expression, he murmured, "Back then, Brother Ning... to me..."
Ning Shu immediately reacted, realizing that Ji Huai had discovered her ability to grow things in her space even when the original owner was still alive.
He quickly said it was okay.
"Actually, I wanted to tell my brother...." He paled. "But I'm afraid that if he knew, he would dislike me even more..."
Ning Shu knew very well that Qin Yang's abilities weren't particularly powerful right now.
And they are going to seek refuge at the base station.
If Qin Yang knew that Ji Huai was more valuable than him, he probably wouldn't feel unbalanced and would likely bully Ji Huai even more.
After Ji Huai finished speaking, he nervously looked over: "Ning Ge, do you think I'm selfish..."
He lowered his head and said, “Am I being too selfish I should have told my brother. He would at least care about our blood relation...”
Ning Shu interrupted, "You're doing the right thing, you have expectations for Qin Yang. But he may not..."
He was unwilling to speak cruelly, to wound Ji Huai's heart. After all, Ji Huai still held onto hope for familial affection.
Ning Shu pursed her lips and said, "Besides fruits, can your space grow vegetables too"
Ji Huai shook his head and said, "I don't know. I first discovered it when a seed in my space suddenly sprouted..."
Ning Shu thought that it was most likely possible. Suddenly, she felt that if she and Ji Huai were together, they wouldn't have to worry about food and shelter if they had space problems.
But he and Ji Huai both lack superpowers.
Even if food were not a problem, survival would be very difficult.
Ning Shu intended to split the apple in half, but Ji Huai shyly said, "Ning Ge, I've already eaten one. This one is yours."
His tone was almost ingratiating, and his eyes were sparkling.
Ning Shu felt a little embarrassed, but she still ate the apple.
"Brother Ning, this apple looks so sweet."
Ji Huai suddenly said, "It looks even sweeter than mine."
Ning Shu just wanted to say something when the figure in front of her leaned over. Then the young man came closer and took a bite of an apple.
He was stunned, feeling his lips touched.
Ji Huai also blushed, he quickly said, "Ning ge, I didn't mean to."
Even Ning Shu felt a little awkward.
He pursed his lips and said, "It's okay."
Ji Huai slowly licked his lips and said in a sticky voice, "Ning Ge's apple is indeed much sweeter than mine."
His eyes were jet black, and his snow-white, delicate face seemed almost otherworldly, making Ning Shu hesitate to look directly at him.
Every day after that, Ning Shu would receive an apple from Ji Huai.
He couldn't help but ask Ji Huai how many apples he had.
Ji Huai would then speak in a shy tone: "I don't know, it grows every day."
"This way, Brother Ning will have fresh fruit to eat every day."
He didn't know if it was Ning Shu's illusion, but he always felt that in the past two days, there had been a subtle change in his body. His skin seemed to have become a little more delicate, and it also looked a bit whiter.
He stopped washing his face and then looked around.
Ning Shu found it wasn't his imagination.
But he didn't think much more about it.
Besides Ning Shu, Huang Mao and Qin Yang didn't seem to notice. But Bai Lu did, he noticed that Ning Shu's face had actually turned a bit paler, and her skin looked better!
At first, Bai Lu thought it was a lighting issue, but after taking a closer look, he realized it was actually true!
He panicked, with a touch of jealousy.
Why has Ning Shu's skin gotten better and whiter
He couldn't tell if it was just the illusion of Bai Lu, but he still felt that the young man seemed more handsome. He was very uneasy, every time Qin Yang spoke to him.
Bai Lu began to fall into her own thoughts.
Will Qin Yang also have noticed Ning Shu's changes
He knew Ning Shu liked Qin Yang, and wasn't Ning Shu deliberately flaunting herself in front of him these days Bai Lu bit his lip and said that he was lying if he said there was no sense of crisis.
He was full of confidence, which captivated Qin Yang.
But Bai Lu still felt uneasy, he thought to himself without malice. It must be because Ning Shu had been living a more comfortable life recently, eating better and drinking better.
That's why it looks like this.
Once Bai Lu sensed a little bit of crisis, he immediately began to think of ways to deal with it.
Originally, Ning Shu demanded that food be distributed fairly. He resented it inwardly, as there was an exception in the team, and it had to be him. Ning Shu had no abilities. What right did he have to be protected by Qin Ge
And during this time, he suffered much injustice.
Before, Qin Yang would always be the first to pick out things for him, but now he also has to give some to Ning Shu and Ji Huai.
Then Bai Lu started to instigate Qin Yang.
"Qin Ge... The base is so far away, it's not enough with just a few of us." Bai Lu stated her purpose, they definitely needed to continue seeking shelter from those with abilities.
If they brought Ning Shu and Ji Huai along, even if the ability group would accept them, but they'd be carrying two more burdens!
That few square meters of space that Ji Huai occupies could still be useful to them, but it's nothing to those people! As for Ning Shu, she has no special abilities, just an ordinary person!
Having him around is like having another mouth to feed.
Qin Yang, upon hearing this, also felt that Bai Lu's words made a lot of sense.
He said in a flat tone, "You mean we're parting ways with Ji Huai"
Bai Lu quickly said, "This is all for Big Brother Qin. Right now, we are lying low and conserving our strength. Once Big Brother Qin's abilities become even more powerful, every base station will be vying to have him."
Qin Yang is very ambitious. He seeks out those with abilities, but only to exploit them.
When he becomes powerful enough, he will be the leader.
....
Ning Shu discovered that when Qin Yang and the others went out, they wouldn't take him or Ji Huai.
He furrowed his brow, starting to feel the target on him from Qin Yang and their group.
Qin Yang wouldn't give them food either.
Ning Shu immediately understood what they meant. Qin Yang and the others planned to abandon her and Ji Huai.
His heart tightened slightly.
But Ning Shu also knew that continuing to follow Qin Yang and his group wouldn't be good for them. Besides, if it wasn't for Ji Huai always following Qin Yang and the others, they wouldn't have been pushed into the zombie horde in the end, ultimately being corrupted and awakening their destructive abilities.
Then become the dark one, manipulating all those with superpowers in your palm.
Ning Shu had no abilities, and she was also accompanied by Ji Huai. Naturally, they weren't as good as Qin Yang at finding food. Plus, Qin Yang and Huang Mao's abilities seemed to have become stronger.
They needed Ning Shu and the other person even less.
Ning Shu could only take Ji Huai to some safe places to find food. Apples alone wouldn't be enough to keep them full.
They need staple foods to fill their stomachs.
But the seeds from that day were just an accident, and Ning Shu couldn't find any other seeds. Coupled with the fact that the supplies nearby had been ransacked by Qin Yang and his group, Ning Shu began to feel a bit overwhelmed.
Until Ji Huai took out food from the space.
Ning Shu's face was full of surprise.
The boy walked over and nudged him, saying: "Ning Ge, these are all that I secretly hid before."
Ning Shu pursed her lips.
I feel like I'm not even as good as Ji Huai. I originally wanted to protect him, but in the end, I ended up needing his care.
Ji Huai looked at him, his eyelashes drooping slightly, and said a little embarrassedly, "Can I sleep with Brother Ning tonight" into her neck, his eyes dark and unreadable.....Ning Shu found that after Jiang Xiao moved in, he had even less of his own personal space. But after all, this was how he had lived for the past ten ye...
