Chapter 330: Chapter Three Hundred and Thirty: I Don’t Know You
Lu Guanhai shuddered when his name was called.
This voice…
Indeed, after he turned around, he saw the last person he wanted to see. Why was Liu Meifang here?
But then he remembered they had already divorced, and he was no longer afraid.
They were no longer related, and during the divorce, Liu Meifang had taken one of his apartments. It could be said that they no longer had any relationship; that mother and daughter were strangers to him now.
“Who are you?”
...
Lu Guanhai asked the mother and daughter with a puzzled face, as if he truly didn’t recognize them.
“I’m Meifang!”
“Dad! I’m Xiaoya, we…”
Cui Xiaoya looked like she was about to cry.
“I’m sorry, you must have mistaken me for someone else, I don’t know you”
Lu Guanhai’s words stunned both Su Jin and Lu Hao, as well as Liu Meifang and Cui Xiaoya.
What’s going on, could it be that Lu Guanhai had amnesia?
“Guanhai, I am your wife, Liu Meifang!”
Liu Meifang hurriedly fixed her hair. It had been many days since she had washed her face, but surely Lu Guanhai couldn’t fail to recognize her? And Lu Hao had recognized her just a moment ago.
“I honestly don’t know you, big sister, you can’t just recognize people randomly!”
The anxious appearance of Lu Guanhai almost convinced everyone in the car that it was true, while Su Jin turned away and laughed. When had her father-in-law become such a good actor?
The woman called big sister, Liu Meifang, was convinced that Lu Guanhai must have lost his memory. The good-for-nothing Lu Guanhai used to listen to her every command—she’d yell, and he wouldn’t dare go west if she ordered him east.
And now, Lu Guanhai seemed to be glowing, clearly living a very good life. It was unbelievable that after being dumped in S city, they would bump into Lu Guanhai and his son. She had to make Lu Guanhai recognize her so perhaps she and Xiaoya wouldn’t have to suffer hunger and cold anymore.
But Lu Guanhai was already turning around to get on the car. His heart was still in turmoil; he truly hoped these two would stop bothering him.
It was simply terrifying.
Contrary to his expectations, Liu Meifang clung onto the car door, adamantly not letting Lu Guanhai close it.
“Guanhai, Guanhai, you’re still angry with me, aren’t you? I was wrong, from now on I’d like to make amends and live well with you,”
Liu Meifang said anxiously.
“Let go, I’ve already said I don’t know you,” Lu Guanhai argued.
By this time a crowd of onlookers had gathered, recognizing the cars as belonging to two big shots from the base.
But what’s the deal with these two women? Didn’t they just say they didn’t know them?
Could they be trying to scam?
“If they say they don’t know you, then you should leave,” someone from the crowd said.
“Yeah, are you trying to extort money?”
“There’s no helping it when you encounter such people; it’s just bad luck,”
…
Seeing the crowd pointing and discussing them, Cui Xiaoya felt a bit embarrassed. Why were the people here so strange? Shouldn’t people tend to side with the weaker party at times like these?
But she was mistaken. In the apocalypse, there was no lack of the weak, and Su Jin’s family was well-known among the people of the base. They had resolved the zombie tide so quickly that people were still in awe, far from being ready to help two strangers.
By this time, Lin Tianhui had also gotten into the car with Su Jin and Lu Hao. Taking advantage of Liu Meifang’s distraction, Lu Guanhai slammed the car door shut with a bang.
Lu Hao said.
Liang Jiuhui looked surprised—how would Lu Hao know such things?
“Said by the people from Red Flame Team,” Lu Hao said with a shrug.
In fact, those from the Red Flame Team had not told him any of this, but when he learned that Huo Qi was just a Space Element Ability User, he guessed it. Such an Ability User had access to this kind of virus and weapons, which meant there must be at least one organization behind him. Combining this with what Su Jin had told him about her past life, he had inferred that Huo Qi was very likely to be a person from E City.
However, he couldn’t explain all this to Liang Jiuhui, so he simply said it was told by the Red Flame Team. After all, those people were dead with no way to contradict him.
“E City…”
Liang Jiuhui tapped his finger on the desk, it seemed E City was indeed no simple matter, but what exactly were their intentions?
“Be extra careful on your trip to E City. If you need it, I can assign more people to your team,” Liang Jiuhui continued to say.
“No need,”
Su Jin and Lu Hao said in unison.
Joking—on their way to E City, they planned to go into the Space as well, and they were also thinking about bringing the grandparents out for a bit of travelling and sightseeing. Adding more people to the team would just be a nuisance.
Seeing how quickly they refused, Liang Jiuhui couldn’t help but laugh, these two gave him the impression that they were going on a honeymoon, suggesting that the company of others was unsuitable.
“I thought you were going to give them more Crystal Cores,”
Said Sheng Jing behind Liang Jiuhui after the two had left, after all, they had brought a bag of something as well.
Liang Jiuhui indicated that although the base now had a rich reserve of Crystal Cores, he was not one to squander resources recklessly.
“Money should be spent where it’s needed,”
Liang Jiuhui said.
Sheng Jing nodded, probably in Liang Jiuhui’s eyes, the ‘where it’s needed’ was indeed Su Jin and Lu Hao…
