Chapter 424: 388 blah blah blah blah_2
How could one tell that this child, who was born less than two days ago, would be an incredibly smart kid when she grows up?
Hua Mi frowned as she intently observed her little daughter. Why couldn’t she see it?
She then saw Qin Zhen standing next to her son’s blue light box, laughing heartily.
Hua Mi looked towards Qin Zhen with a blank expression and Qin Zhen said,
“Commander Gong just thinks that his own child is the best, that’s all.”
After speaking, she also added a polite remark,
“I see the little girl is smart too. When she grows up, she will certainly have a lot of boys chasing her.”
Gong Yi’s face fell into a half-frown, “Dream on. I cherish my daughter myself. No chasing, no chasing.”
Qin Zhen felt helpless. She didn’t voice it, but it was clear that, compared to Commander Gong, his whole heart and eyes were filled with his daughter.
Consequently, his son lying in the blue light box seemed to receive much less favor.
Watching Gong Yi’s changing expressions throughout, Hua Mi sighed and exchanged a helpless look with Qin Zhen.
It was just inevitable. This man, Gong Yi, was usually so decisively ruthless.
How come now, when facing his daughter, he became so clingy and sentimental?
Once again, Gong Yi was sitting between the two blue light boxes, looking at his son, then at his daughter, then back at his daughter, then again at his daughter…
Hua Mi gestured for Qin Zhen to come over and quietly asked,
“Qin Zhen, what exactly is going on in E City now?”
Qin Zhen paused for a moment, surprised that Hua Mi, who had been resting in the ward, had actually caught wind of the outside world.
So, she decided not to hide anything and told Hua Mi about the current situation in E City.
She also said, “These past few days, we’ve detained quite a few survivors trying to bring goods to E City.”
“After confiscating all their supplies, we expelled them from the Xiang City Base.”
“Now Xiang City Base is completely sealed off. No one can enter.”
Hua Mi nodded thoughtfully and said to Qin Zhen,
“From what you’ve described, it seems that E City Base is likely heading for trouble.”
“I even suggest that we must guard the transport point of Xiang City Base rigorously, sterilizing it daily with forceful, violent disinfection.”
“We can’t give anyone any opportunities. In this kind of situation, there will definitely be discontented individuals trying to violently break into Xiang City Base.”
“Xiang City Base must implement a strong measure, to seal off whenever necessary.”
Qin Zhen nodded and adjusted the blanket for Hua Mi,
“I’m aware of all of this. Right now, your main task is to rest and recover.”
“Giving birth to these two children must have been tough on you.”
Hua Mi looked at the two little ones in the blue light boxes, and her eyes softened.
Yes, it was because of the hardships she endured for their birth that she must safeguard this pure land of Xiang City Base in this cruel apocalypse.
She couldn’t save the entire apocalypse, so Hua Mi had to focus on smaller goals.
Save a city if she could save a city, save a region if she could save a region.
And if she couldn’t save anyone, retreating to the Lotus Shengxing Supermarket with the people around her was an option too.
As soon as Qin Zhen left, Hua Mi’s expression gradually grew colder.
She observed Gong Yi’s face, full of tender love, and beckoned to him,
“Commander Gong, come here.”
Commander Gong quietly moved away from his daughter and son, settling at the edge of Hua Mi’s bed.
His hands rested on Hua Mi’s shoulders.
Before Hua Mi could speak, he tilted his head and kissed her cheek, asking, “What’s wrong?”
Hua Mi glared at Gong Yi and spoke seriously,
“There’s trouble at E City Base, Chen Hu will definitely run, and I cannot easily let go of what Chen Hu has done to me.”
Gong Yi’s expression became sharp and lethal.
He narrowed his eyes slightly, his voice containing a hint of menace,
“Of course, I can’t let him go either. Don’t worry. First, rest and recover well. Once you’ve finished your confinement, I’ll take you to E City Base for revenge.”
Such matters couldn’t be rushed, especially since Hua Mi was still in her confinement period.
Even in these end times, where customs like confinement meant little, where most women having a stable life was already extraordinary,
Hua Mi, who had the provisions, chose to follow the tradition,
She had the means to undergo confinement after giving birth.
She wasn’t lacking in supplies, for in this apocalypse, having supplies meant having everything.
