70: Who are you and Lu Yu?

Jiang Zhengkang wiped away his tears and promised, “I won’t cause you any trouble. I can sleep in the hallway. Recently, there have been a few strangers in Building A, and I just want a safe place.”

Jiang Fei: “No.”

She had already repaid the kindness from her previous life and had no obligation to take in Jiang Zhengkang.

Moreover, he was easily swayed and couldn't distinguish right from wrong. What if he let bad people in?

Seeing Jiang Fei's firm refusal, Jiang Zhengkang didn't insist and returned to 1701 in disappointment.

Su Liuyuan, who was following behind, quietly asked Lu Yu, “What’s her relationship with that man? Relatives?”

Lu Yu: “The more you know, the faster you die.”

Su Liuyuan immediately pursed his lips.

22nd floor.

Jiang Fei and Lu Yu temporarily placed the items Su Liuyuan brought in 2203.

Ling Zhaorui heard the noise and came out of the bedroom. Before he could be happy about Jiang Fei and the others returning, he saw a strange man sitting on the sofa as if he owned the place, petting Big Yellow.

“Sister Jiang, Brother Lu, who is he?”

Jiang Fei was about to explain when Xiao Chuxia from 2201, who hadn't been sleeping, excitedly ran out and hugged her.

“Miss, you’re finally back!”

“Are you cold? Have you eaten?”

Xiao Chuxia put a newly unsealed warm patch into Jiang Fei's hand and also noticed Su Liuyuan on the sofa.

“Who is this person?”

“Su Liuyuan, he’ll be staying on the 22nd floor for a while.” Jiang Fei’s voice paused:

“Since everyone is awake, come to 2202 for a late-night snack in half an hour. We’ll also have a meeting.”

She hadn't found it convenient to ask about the lily skull incident when the Rescue Team was around.

Now that she was back home, she had to get to the bottom of it.

Those people were dangerous, and she didn't want to bring any more trouble to the 22nd floor.

One Tiger Suppression Gang was enough.

Jiang Fei returned to 2202, first changed into a set of warm clothes, and then put the three boxes of gold into the Supermarket.

System: [Ding — Gold detected: 90000 grams]

[Ding — Congratulations to the host for successfully unlocking the fourth area on the second floor of the Supermarket [Fresh Produce — Live Seafood Area]. The last area on the second floor requires 256000 grams of gold to unlock.]

[Current gold owned: 10400 grams]

[Bonus reward: One lucky roulette spin. Does the host wish to use it?]

The Supermarket can really have live creatures?!

Jiang Fei immediately entered the second floor of the Supermarket.

The white mist near the chilled seafood area had dissipated, revealing tiered glass tanks for seafood.

There were 5 layers per set, with 20 open small glass tanks on each layer.

The bottom layer was on the ground, and the upper tanks were on special stands.

Each glass tank came with its own oxygen pump and filter.

There were 10 sets in total.

The tanks contained lively fish, shrimp, crabs, shellfish, abalone, sea cucumbers, soft-shelled turtles, and other live seafood, even king crabs and blue lobsters.

Unlike before, the quantity of seafood in the tanks was very small, with only four or five of each kind.

For example, there were only two king crabs in their tank.

“System, are you shortchanging me on seafood?”

[A single glass tank cannot cultivate more than a hundred in quantity.]

[When the existing seafood quantity in a glass tank falls below 2, the system will automatically replenish it until the default quantity of 100 for each type is used up.]

“So, will the Supermarket have live chickens and ducks in the future?”

The system fell silent, pretending to be dead again.

Jiang Fei had no choice but to give up on probing and chose to use the “Lucky Roulette.”

After the familiar eerie music ended —

[Ding — Congratulations to the host, you have obtained “Kissing Duck.”]

[Hint: “Kissing Duck” is the mother-in-law of “Cheering Duck” and the mother of “Diligent Duck.” They are a harmonious and happy family~]

Jiang Fei: “...”

I see you’re a useless duck!

Jiang Fei expressionlessly threw away the duck badge and stomped on it.

Unexpectedly, the badge was very sturdy, even though it looked like plastic.

Jiang Fei grabbed a cleaver and chopped at the badge.

The badge was fine, but the cleaver’s blade had a small chip.

“?!” Jiang Fei was stunned.

Is this broken duck badge that hard?

She tried with a chainsaw instead.

The badge remained intact, and the pouting, squinting duckling on it seemed to be mocking Jiang Fei’s overestimation of herself.

Remembering the diamond jewelry in the warehouse, Jiang Fei took out a large diamond ring and smashed it with the badge.

One of the hardest minerals, diamond, shattered.

This is a treasure!

Jiang Fei looked at the duck badge seriously for the first time.

It was the size of a Pulse beverage bottle cap, and circular.

Besides being convenient for hitting people, what else could it be used for?

Could it be that if she collected a certain number, she could assemble a protective vest?

The thought of herself covered in ducks made Jiang Fei shiver.

It was a bit of an eyesore.

Unable to think of a suitable use, Jiang Fei put away the precious, useless badge and exited the Supermarket.

She took out the hotpot utensils from last time, as well as the coconuts she had hoarded previously, and two fresh Wenchang chickens from the Supermarket.

This type of chicken had tender meat, and used in a coconut chicken hotpot, it would taste refreshing and rich.

As for vegetables, Jiang Fei took the same kinds they had eaten last time.

Today, with chicken and coconut, she wouldn't take wagyu beef or seafood.

Eating the same thing all the time would get boring.

Moreover, Crippled Wang’s two boxes could at most hold these foods.

If she wanted to improve their meals in the future, she would either ask Crippled Wang for more boxes, continuing to let him take the blame, or she would cook a small meal just for herself.

Thinking of this, Jiang Fei took out another Wenchang chicken.

Let's eat to her heart's content this time!

Jiang Fei had almost finished preparing when Lu Yu and the others arrived.

Ling Zhaorui and Xiao Chuxia skillfully went to block the gaps in the doors and windows.

When Su Liuyuan saw the rich side dishes and fresh coconut chicken on the table, he was dumbfounded.

“You guys eat so lavishly…”

“Can I join you? I can modify weapons!”

For nothing else, but for this meat!

Jiang Fei looked at the casual Su Liuyuan suspiciously: “You know about weapons?”

“Lu Yu can vouch for me! All those guns and stuff he uses, I helped him modify them!”

Lu Yu nodded: “Su Liuyuan not only modifies but also makes weapons, he’s just a bit lacking in combat skills.”

Jiang Fei was very tempted.

She had many weapons, and if they could be modified to be more powerful, her safety would increase by several points.

However… Jiang Fei poured Su Liuyuan a glass of water: “You can join the team, but you have to tell me the truth. What exactly are you and Lu Yu?”
