Chapter 394: 378 Qu Yimin is so unreasonable and persistent_2
“Just one meal and there’s so much to eat.”
“Three meals a day without any repetition.”
“Since the establishment of the quarantine zone, only Qu Yimin has had complaints; which other survivor would be so picky?”
Qu Yimin slammed the food in her hands hard on the ground, bursting the milk carton and splattering the liquid everywhere.
Qu Yimin erupted in anger,
“I’ve said I won’t eat these! Look at the production dates on them; they’re all nearly at their expiry. I want fresh food, fresh!”
“Don’t you understand? Can’t you understand human speech?”
Qin Zhen stood behind a group of medical staff, her face full of rage. She lowered her voice to Hua Mi and said,
“What kind of bizarre family could raise such a person? What time do we think it is now? And still here fussing about expiry dates?”
Hua Mi also sneered and loudly said to Qu Yimin,
“If you have a problem with our quarantine zone’s food, then you shouldn’t come to Xiang City Base. We don’t welcome you here.”
She stood there with her swollen belly, pointing in the direction of the gate,
“Do you see it? You leave from here, walk a bit, and you can head towards Xiang City Base West, the only current passage out of Xiang City Base. Don’t let the door hit you on the way out.”
Qu Yimin glanced over and saw Hua Mi’s bulging belly, and her mind instantly recalled how Hua Mi, with her belly, had wiped out her brother’s team.
For a moment, Qu Yimin felt a rush of panic, but then she thought carefully; she was here representing the E City Base.
She had called her brother, who supported her approaching Gong Yi in this way.
Her brother had come up with many methods and created numerous official documents for her to represent E City Base in cooperating with Xiang City Base.
Now, Qu Yimin was a representative of E City Base’s management.
Thinking of this, Qu Yimin suddenly felt bold. She was not afraid of Hua Mi and said to her with utter disdain,
“The food you provide to survivors is nearly expired, how come when we bring this up, it’s suddenly off-limits?”
As she said this, her eyes scanned the other survivors,
Trying to find someone among them who shared her indignation.
But wherever her gaze fell, all the survivors either averted their eyes or bowed their heads.
After all, they had recently returned to Xiang City Base from the outside.
Having stayed in the perilous environment outside for so long, everyone knew that what did it matter if the food was nearing its expiry date?
Even if it was expired, they would still eat it.
Not to mention eating expired food, they had even eaten moldy food.
Given how harsh the survival conditions were outside.
So, why couldn’t they eat this?
The resources from the Hua Mi factory had always been in production, but the Crystal Cores entering Xiang City Base every day were simply too numerous.
The resources flowing out of Xiang City Base were also considerable.
Likewise, Xiang City Base would acquire various materials through other means.
Xiang City Base didn’t always provide survivors with goods produced by the Hua Mi factory.
They would generally consume the resources acquired from all channels first.
Only when there was genuinely no more to eat would Qin Zhen go to Chi Chuan, through official accounts, to buy supplies.
And the supplies Chi Chuan had were all wholesale from Hua Mi.
Having passed through several hands, the prices were still not expensive.
So very few knew that Hua Mi was the real backbone of Xiang City.
Qu Yimin, seeing everyone with their heads down, not speaking, sneered and asked,
“What, are you all scared of Xiang City Base’s retaliatory power? Is that why you won’t tell the truth?”
Her gaze turned towards Hua Mi; obviously, the ‘power’ Qu Yimin mentioned was referring to Hua Mi.
Hua Mi stepped forward, slightly out of breath, and said to Qu Yimin,
“They don’t speak not because they’re unwilling to tell the truth but because they cannot empathize with you. For them, the supply from Xiang City Base has already far exceeded their expectations.”
“From start to finish, it’s only someone like you, a precious heiress, who would complain about our Xiang City Base’s supplies.”
“I’ve said it before, if you really have an issue, just leave Xiang City Base. There’s no need to stir up trouble here.”
After hearing Hua Mi’s words, Qu Yimin scoffed coldly. She felt she had come to help Xiang City Base, so the people here should be grateful to her.
