Others are fleeing famine, but I am a salted fish

Chapter 3: Intercepting the Golden Finger

You have to know that in the end times, people without superpowers either become zombies' food or stepping stones for other survivors. At that time, they never thought that Lin Xiaoyue, who had triggered the mutation, was struggling to make a living for them. She would also get tired, need rest, and need food. However, how did those people repay her...

Lin Xiaoyue clenched her fists and became angrier the more she thought about it, but she knew that she couldn't let her anger blind her yet. Turning against them now would not help her situation and plans at all. It was not the end of the world yet and it was still a society ruled by law. She couldn't kill anyone at this time. If she was caught and taken to the police station, she would not be able to collect supplies.

Therefore, Lin Xiaoyue could only remind herself again and again: Patience, a hundred times of patience can make you a master! It won't be too late to clean up the dregs when we enter the end of the world.

Of course, the golden finger must be intercepted, and some interest can be collected first.

"Is that so? Let's go shopping then." Lin Xiaoyue suppressed her anger. She didn't care that Lin Lin pretended to be intimate by hugging her arm and smiled as she agreed with her words.

This time, she must cut off the jade teardrop pendant and not be foolish enough to give it away.

……

The three of them walked all the way to the mall under the scorching sun. Lin Xiaoyue saw Lin Lin was extremely excited after entering the mall. Lin Lin seemed to be casually but purposefully pulled Lin Xiaoyue to ignore the shops full of customers and went straight to the jade shop.

If I remember correctly, the jade water drop pendant was displayed in a glass display cabinet near the corner of the store. The water drop-shaped emerald green jade pendant has a hint of yellow in it, which is not abrupt at all, but looks very beautiful and eye-catching at first glance.

Sure enough, as soon as they entered the store, Lin Lin let go of Lin Xiaoyue's hand and walked straight to the counter. Among the various jades, he pointed at the water drop pendant and said, "I want this. Can you take it out and have a look?"

..., can you be more specific?

Lin Xiaoyue curled her lips in dissatisfaction and followed him.

"Okay, please wait a moment." The waiter opened the glass cabinet and took out the jade that Linlin wanted, explaining: "The beauty has a good eye. This water drop pendant is full of water and transparent. It was recently imported from Myanmar..."

Lin Lin was flattered by the waiter's praise. She picked up the jade pendant and looked at it in a pretentious manner: "I know, I come to your store often, and I like this pendant the most..." As if she remembered that she had talked too much, she quickly stopped talking and glanced at Lin Xiaoyue anxiously. Seeing that she didn't respond, she probably didn't hear what she said. Lin Lin couldn't help swallowing guiltily.

Lin Xiaoyue pretended not to hear Lin Lin's words and stood beside her, staring at the jade pendant in Lin Lin's hand. That's right, it was this one, a teardrop-shaped jade pendant with a distinct yellow dot in it.

"Xiao..." Lin Lin habitually turned around to let Lin Xiaoyue send her off, then she remembered the excuse she had for coming out today. An idea flashed through her mind quickly, and Lin Lin simply took Lin Xiaoyue's hand, put the jade pendant in her palm, and winked at her playfully: "Xiaoyue, what do you think of this? I think it suits you very well."

Looking at the jade pendant lying in the palm of her hand, Lin Xiaoyue's heart finally relaxed a little, she breathed a sigh of relief and felt completely relieved.

Now that she has the jade pendant, no one can take it away from her this time.

Yes, this is Lin Lin’s golden finger space jade pendant in the previous life.

As for how Lin Xiaoyue knew this secret, it was all thanks to the fact that after Lin Lin and Chen Yi both developed their superpowers, they went out together in a high-profile manner and talked about love anytime and anywhere.

During a task of collecting supplies, he was in a group of three. However, when taking the supplies, Chen Yi thought he had covered up for Lin Lin well, but he didn't know that Lin Xiaoyue had silently seen Lin Lin's actions. If he was just suspicious at the time, after returning to the camp and handing over the task, the two of them were fighting in the next room while laughing and talking about how much supplies they had embezzled, but they didn't expect Lin Xiaoyue to hear everything through the wall.

It was then that Lin Xiaoyue realized that the so-called anniversary celebration before the end of the world was a gift from Chen Yi to Lin Xiaoyue, and in the end, it was Lin Xiaoyue who paid for it. Chen Yi then said that he would lend it to him to wear for a few days to play with. With his Yang warming, the jade would become more translucent and lustrous, and he would give it to Lin Xiaoyue after it was well cared for. As a result, Chen Yi gave the jade pendant to Lin Lin.

At that time, only Lin Xiaoyue, who was in love and had an impressive IQ, would believe such a poor excuse.

Later, the doomsday crisis broke out, and Lin Xiaoyue and they fled all the way and completely forgot about the matter. It was not until they accidentally leaked the news that Lin Xiaoyue suddenly realized it.

"Brother Yi, do you think this jade pendant is suitable for Xiaoyue? I think it really suits Xiaoyue." Without waiting for Lin Xiaoyue to respond, Lin Lin shouted to Chen Yi who walked in leisurely behind them.

Chen Yi staggered closer and agreed absentmindedly, "Yeah, it's good. It goes well with Xiaoyue."

"Really?" Lin Xiaoyue was relieved when she got the jade pendant. She didn't care about his perfunctory attitude. She asked the waiter to bring a silver necklace with the jade pendant and put it on her neck. She also looked at herself in the makeup mirror on the table and asked Chen Yi again and again if it looked good and was it really suitable for her.

After Chen Yi gave a positive reply, Lin Xiaoyue pretended to be shy and lowered her neck, hooked the hair hanging by her ears, and thanked Chen Yi in a sweet voice for giving her an anniversary gift. Chen Yi and Lin Lin were both dumbfounded. Why was it different from what they expected?

"Didn't Linlin say that you would give me an anniversary gift?" Lin Xiaoyue lowered her head in grievance, hiding the sneer that escaped from the corner of her mouth. Go and pay, scumbag. He made Lin Xiaoyue pay out of pocket and still want to gain fame. He really wants to be a whore and also be a saint. What the hell does he want?

The scumbag and the bitch wanted to dig a hole for her. They were so beautiful, why didn't they go up to the sky and stand shoulder to shoulder with the sun? They also wanted her to be a sucker, not to mention the door, there was not even a window.

The words had already been spoken, and it was hard to back down. Chen Yi had no choice but to bite the bullet and swallow the curse that almost came out of his mouth. Fortunately, he almost couldn't help but ask: Xiaoyue, what's wrong with you? Didn't you always pay for it in the past? It's a pity that she picked such an expensive gift today!

It’s heartbreaking to think about someone who is used to eating and getting things for free suddenly being asked to pay.

Chen Yi's forced smile was almost twisted and stiff. He felt that Lin Xiaoyue was a little different today. Did she hear something just now? Or was someone gossiping in front of her?

As Chen Yi started to ponder in his mind, his gaze subconsciously slid towards Lin Lin, who was even more confused than him. Their eyes met in mid-air, and then they hurriedly separated with guilt. Obviously, the two strange minds might have thought of the same thing at the same time.
