60: Chapter 6 Brother Siyan will not let you off the hook.
Ye Qingqing even wondered if she had some special constitution that attracted petty people.
She encountered idiots wherever she went.
Ye Qingqing and Ah Huang both looked at the woman as if she were a fool, then Ah Huang took the lead and walked ahead with Ye Qingqing.
However, as Ah Huang passed the woman, he suddenly lifted a hind leg and peed on Miss Jiao Jiao's shoes.
A scream immediately erupted from Miss Jiao Jiao's mouth.
Ye Qingqing scratched her ear and moved aside with Ah Huang. As a dog, Ah Huang's hearing was naturally sharp, and hearing Miss Jiao Jiao's explosive dolphin-like screech...
...made the dog look utterly disgusted.
He kept covering his ears with his paws.
After screaming for a long while, Miss Jiao Jiao finally recovered.
Her eyes bulged as she glared at Ye Qingqing and Ah Huang.
Her fingertip pointed straight at Ye Qingqing's nose as she approached her step by step.
Just as Miss Jiao Jiao's nails were about to reach Ye Qingqing's face, Ye Qingqing moved and instantly dodged out of the way.
However, Ye Qingqing didn't plan to let Miss Jiao Jiao off so easily.
As she dodged to the right, Ye Qingqing quickly reached out and grabbed Miss Jiao Jiao's wrist.
Applying force with both hands, she gave Miss Jiao Jiao's wrist a sharp twist backward.
With just a little more strength, Miss Jiao Jiao's hand would have snapped.
"Ah!"
"It hurts, hurts, hurts!"
Ye Qingqing gave a cold snort. "If you know it hurts, then don't go around provoking people."
Having said that, Ye Qingqing released Miss Jiao Jiao's hand. She had only intended to teach her a lesson, not truly cause her harm.
But Miss Jiao Jiao wouldn't stay still. The moment Ye Qingqing let go, her other, uninjured hand reached out and yanked Ye Qingqing's hair.
Ye Qingqing's hair had been tucked into her hat. Unless one stared closely at her face, her features wouldn't be clearly visible.
But now, with this tug from Jiao Jiao...
Ye Qingqing's entire face was suddenly exposed. As her hair fluttered, it even carried a faint, fresh scent of shampoo.
Miss Jiao Jiao froze the moment she saw Ye Qingqing's face.
She saw an incredibly beautiful face, clean and pure, like a lotus rising from clear water.
She had to admit that even as a woman, she was somewhat captivated by Ye Qingqing's beauty.
However, her character was poor to begin with. Looking at Ye Qingqing's face, her surprise quickly turned into a surge of anger and jealousy.
Competition between women often requires only a single look. Ye Qingqing saw the jealousy and hatred in Miss Jiao Jiao's eyes but didn't want to bother with her.
Thinking it was better to avoid trouble, Ye Qingqing put her hat back on and spoke to stop Miss Jiao Jiao.
"I have no intention of tangling with you. If you're smart, you'll go cool off somewhere else and stay out of my way."
Hearing Ye Qingqing's words, Miss Jiao Jiao grew frantic, her voice filled with anger. "Do you know who I am?!"
As she spoke, she tried to grab at Ye Qingqing's clothes.
She even stepped forward to snatch the leash from Ye Qingqing's hand, wanting to take Ah Huang away.
Losing her patience, Ye Qingqing threw a punch directly at Miss Jiao Jiao's face.
"I don't care who you are."
Miss Jiao Jiao cried out in pain, letting out a miserable wail.
She stepped back, clutching her face tightly. "Ah! My face! If my face is disfigured, Brother Si Yan won't let you off!"
"Just you wait!"
Realizing she was no match for Ye Qingqing, Miss Jiao Jiao scurried away.
Ye Qingqing and Ah Huang looked at each other, finding the whole thing bizarre.
However, Ye Qingqing reflected on the 'Brother Si Yan' Miss Jiao Jiao had mentioned; it was rather intriguing.
Could it be...
Ye Qingqing walked all the way back to her small room. Naturally, she wouldn't use the supplies she had received.
After taking a mattress out of her space, she set up a very comfortable four-piece bedding set. The bed was a bit cramped, so she had to squeeze in tight with Ah Huang every night.
But given the temperature, huddling together was actually quite warm.
Looking at the made bed, Ye Qingqing couldn't help but sigh in relief.
She felt like she hadn't rested at all lately; her nerves had been constantly frayed.
It was time to have a good meal to reward herself.
"Ah Huang, do you want a feast?"
Hearing the word 'feast', Ah Huang's ears twitched, and he quickly let out a "Woof!"
Saliva was practically dripping from his mouth.
Seeing this, Ye Qingqing shook her head helplessly. As expected, Ah Huang was still Ah Huang. Even if he had become smarter, he was still the same gluttonous dog at heart.
Ye Qingqing took a small Air Purifier out of her space.
This little gadget could absorb the smell of cooking fumes. The odors sucked in would be converted inside the machine and come back out as fresh air.
She had found this thing earlier in the Department Store.
But because it was so small and inconspicuous, she hadn't noticed it until now.
Now, it finally came in handy.
Ye Qingqing plugged the little gadget in. Of course, she had to use a Portable Power Station to power it.
There were no such things as power outlets in this room.
The small table in the room was useless, so Ye Qingqing decisively put it into her space.
Then she took out a mobile, height-adjustable bedside table from her space.
It was just the right size to hold a hot pot.
That's right, Ye Qingqing was planning to treat herself to a hot pot. Her stomach had been craving it for quite some time.
Now that she had finally found a place to stay, she had to arrange a good meal for herself.
She also arranged something for Ah Huang. Hot pot was out, but she could prepare a soup pot for him.
Ye Qingqing took out some bone broth she had stewed earlier and served Ah Huang a basin full of meat.
She added plenty of other meats that Ah Huang liked.
She let Ah Huang eat on his own; after all, she had to take care of her own appetite and didn't have much time to fuss over his.
Premium Tripe, 8-second Potato Shreds, Crystal Goose Intestines...
Just taking out plate after plate of food made Ye Qingqing's mouth water uncontrollably.
Fortunately, she had already prepared the hot pot base. Now, she just had to put it on the Induction Cooker and start cooking the ingredients.
Whenever her laziness kicked in but she still wanted to eat, Ye Qingqing thanked her past self countless times for working so hard to hoard food at the beginning of the Post-Apocalyptic World.
"Ah Huang, let's eat."
Later, in the Post-Apocalyptic World, Ye Qingqing would recall this night many times and consider it the most comfortable sleep she'd had since the apocalypse began.
However, this peace didn't last long. Early the next morning, Ye Qingqing was awakened by a series of urgent knocks on the door.
