95: The sky is clear now, is the disaster over?

“Your boss doesn't even have an opinion. What right do you, a mere cashier, have to kick us out?”

The old man had just spat a thick wad of phlegm onto the ground when the shop door was pushed open.

Jiang Fei, who had been gone all morning, walked in, followed by Lu Yu in uniform, and other members of the Patrol Team.

“It's them. They're causing trouble in my Supermarket and insulting people.”

Jiang Fei took out her phone and played a video of the old man and woman cursing.

These past two days, she had been secretly collecting evidence.

If she couldn't hit them or drive them away, couldn't she at least get the authorities to deal with them?

With undeniable evidence, Lu Yu acted according to regulations: “You have violated the Safety Shelter's rules. Take your belongings, clean up the mess you made, and come with us to the Patrol Team for re-education.”

The Patrol Team represented the authorities, so the old man and woman didn't dare to not cooperate. As they passed Jiang Fei, they cursed in low, venomous whispers—

“You're a wicked girl! You'll get your comeuppance sooner or later!”

“You have no magnanimity, you won't make a big business. Tomorrow your Supermarket will go bankrupt!”

Jiang Fei retorted: “I'm younger than you two. If it fails, I can just open another one. Unlike you two, you don't have many years left to live.”

“You're so afraid of the cold; when you die, make sure to be buried deep so you don't come out and jump around, trying to steal warmth. At your age, you're still being taken away for re-education. Your children must be ashamed of you.”

“You little girl, how dare you curse me to die!” An old woman raised her hand to slap Jiang Fei, but missed.

Jiang Fei, who had dodged, turned her head and reported seriously: “She dared to lay hands on someone in front of the Patrol Team today, tomorrow she'll dare to kill. I request a serious punishment!”

“I accept your request.” Lu Yu lowered his gaze, hiding the smile in his eyes, and unclipped the handcuffs from his waist, fastening them on the old woman's wrists.

The other team members also handcuffed the other old men and women.

The old man and woman were so angry their faces turned red and their necks swelled, blaming the old woman who had tried to hit someone.

“It's all your fault! Now things have gotten serious! How am I going to explain this to my children?!”

“You can forget about chatting or playing cards with us ever again! You troublemaker!”

The team members interrupted the old man and woman: “Alright, shut up and get out.”

As the Patrol Team led the people away, Su Liuyuan said admiringly, “Captain, you're so clever, you recorded the evidence beforehand.”

“Have today's accounts been settled? Have the items on the shelves been restocked?”

Su Liuyuan reluctantly went to work, while Jiang Fei opened the Supermarket door to air it out.

These old men and women didn't bathe or change clothes, leaving the Supermarket with a constant sour smell. Every time she opened the door, it would be closed again.

Today, they were finally driven away!

Suddenly, a shout rang out—

“Goddess!”

The young man, standing not far away, waved his hand excitedly.

His amber eyes were bright and clear, as if sprinkled with tiny starlight, curving slightly with the brilliant smile on his face, inexplicably giving off the innocent and harmless vibe of a small white kitten.

Behind him followed four burly bodyguards and an elegant middle-aged man.

Dressed appropriately and accompanied by bodyguards, they were clearly from the wealthy circle.

Thinking the young man was calling someone else, Jiang Fei returned to the Supermarket.

However, he chased her inside, while the bodyguards and the man remained at the door.

The young man's cheeks flushed with nervousness: “Hello, I am Mo Yanan.”

“You don't know me, but I know you! You are the Goddess!”

Because of the extreme cold, his team had stayed in the Safety Shelter for refuge, and he hadn't expected such a pleasant surprise!

Jiang Fei was confused: “Goddess?”

When did she become one???

There were no customers in the Supermarket right now, and Su Liuyuan was restocking in the back, unable to hear the conversation, so Mo Yanan lowered his voice and said:

“I personally saw you disappear into thin air, and you made several cars vanish and reappear, driving from Lincheng to the Safety Shelter.”

“Only a Goddess from myths could do such things.”

A murderous glint flashed in Jiang Fei's eyes, and she feigned nonchalance, teasing: “If I had the abilities you speak of, I wouldn't be working here.”

Mo Yanan said anxiously: “I saw you use your divine power at the diving equipment shop and at the car show on the top floor of Shengshi City.”

“I've never been to the places you mentioned. You've mistaken me for someone else.” Jiang Fei adamantly denied it, her attitude cold: “If you're not buying anything, please don't linger here.”

“I'll buy!” Mo Yanan took off the white jade thumb ring he wore on his left hand.

“Ping An Supermarket only accepts gold.”

Jiang Fei immediately added: “No credit.”

With one sentence, Mo Yanan's idea of buying on credit was extinguished.

Just then, Uncle Liu walked into the Supermarket and reminded: “Young Master, you have an appointment at one in the afternoon. We should go.”

Mo Yanan looked at Jiang Fei reluctantly: “I'll come find you next time. This thumb ring is for you.”

After speaking, Mo Yanan followed Uncle Liu and the bodyguards out.

Su Liuyuan came over, and with just one glance, he recognized the white jade thumb ring on the counter. Its quality had already reached collection level, worth at least eight figures.

Spending tens of millions and being handsome, Su Liuyuan felt the CP was a bit dangerous: “Captain, is he your friend? And he called you Goddess?”

“I don't know him. He probably mistook me for someone else.”

“Put the thumb ring away. When he comes again, return it to him.”

Jiang Fei left Su Liuyuan to mind the Supermarket and drove away in the pickup truck parked outside.

To facilitate collecting gold from the Supermarket, Jiang Fei had been driving the pickup truck these days.

Mo Yanan being able to secretly chat with her about the Supermarket and Shengshi City affairs probably meant he didn't want others to know either.

He wasn't an ordinary person, so she couldn't act rashly, especially in the Safety Shelter. She had to be extra careful.

First, she needed to figure out Mo Yanan's identity, then decide how to kill him.

A General Store, formerly a car wash.

Crippled Wang sat in his makeshift office, eating instant noodles, when he heard a knock on the door.

“Boss, Miss Jiang is here.”

“Please come in quickly!” Crippled Wang hastily stuffed a few mouthfuls of instant noodles into his mouth and pulled up a chair for Jiang Fei as she entered.

“Boss, why do you have time to visit me?”

After they parted ways at Four Seasons Restaurant last time, Crippled Wang had given Jiang Fei his address.

“You're well-informed. I want you to help me investigate someone. His name is Mo Yanan, around twenty years old, about 1.85 meters tall.”

Jiang Fei briefly described Mo Yanan's appearance.

Such a person was uncommon in the Safety Shelter and easy to investigate, so Crippled Wang immediately sent his subordinates to handle it.

“For such a small matter, you don't need to come in person next time. A Meng often eats at Xiaocui's breakfast shop on West Street. You can find him to tell me.”

“I also have two other matters. Do you have bricks and cement?”

Jiang Fei lied without batting an eyelid: “My financial backer wants them.”

There were still five walls in the plantation and orchard waiting for her to build.

Crippled Wang thought for a moment: “I don't have bricks and cement, but I can help you collect them. These things aren't valuable, only one catty of coal per ton. How much do you want?”

“The more, the better. Send them to Ping An Supermarket then. Are you free in a few days?”

It was almost Monday, and she needed to prepare a “big gift” for Xu Yichen.

—

On Monday, the temperature rose to ten degrees Celsius above zero.

The months-long overcast sky had cleared.

Jiang Fei was woken up early in the morning by the cheers outside.

Pulling back the curtains, she saw the residents of the building had all run outside, excitedly basking in the warm sunlight.

“The sun is back, the sky is clear! Does this mean the disaster is over and we can go home?!”

“It's been so long since I've enjoyed the sun. It's so warm, I feel alive again!”

“Look quickly! Some of the ice is starting to melt!”

“The weather is finally warm, we've made it through!”

The teammates on the third floor also ran downstairs, embracing the long-lost sunlight.

Only Jiang Fei's mood was heavy.

After the extreme cold came the high temperatures.

When it was cold, one could wear more clothes to keep warm, drink snow water, and ice water. How would they survive the heat?

All water resources would dry up.

Even completely undressed, they would still suffer from heatstroke.

This Safety Shelter survived the extreme cold; perhaps it could also endure the high temperatures.
