My Days Running a Supermarket in the Apocalypse

Chapter 22 "I Know Where to Find Supplies"

After seeing Cheng Xu and his group off, a small group of customers gradually entered the store. Shan Nai thoroughly enjoyed the busyness, happily humming a little tune as she restocked the goods.

"If we have customers coming in every day, the upgrade of our supermarket will be just around the corner!"

Shan Nai neatly arranged the bottled water, touched her chin with her little hand, and her eyes curved like crescent moons.

[Wake up, host! This is the apocalypse. Survivors are scattered all over the world, and their numbers are pitifully small...]

The system's cute prompt made Shan Nai purse her lips. "Hmm, I understand."

She certainly knew what kind of living environment this was.

I've been coming here for quite a while now. Although there are a lot of customers today, we still haven't reached our goal of registering 100 members.

But Yamana didn't think much of it and casually picked up a bottle of chilled juice and started drinking it.

For now, she's very satisfied with this kind of life. She has enough to eat and drink, and the supermarket provides protection. Upgrading will come slowly.

A woman wearing a black hat stood outside the glass door at the entrance.

She stared intently at the goods in the supermarket and at that beautiful figure, touching her dry and rough face, her brows furrowed.

"How can there be a supermarket... How strange..." the woman murmured, reluctantly looking away, pulling down the brim of her hat, her eyes becoming increasingly greedy and excited as she turned and left.

Two days.

The woman traveled for two whole days before finally arriving at this place.

The entrance to the dirty alley was surrounded by heavy iron railings.

"Oh? A rare guest! Isn't this Aunt Ling? What's wrong? Could you be struggling to make ends meet? You left so gracefully, didn't you? Hehe..."

Inside the iron fence stood a man with a bulbous nose, arms crossed, eyes gleaming with a mocking and sarcastic air.

Li Liling ignored him, her face calm as she said softly, "If you have something to say, please go inside and tell me."

What sister-in-law? She's nothing but a fickle, promiscuous woman!

Six months ago, he betrayed the boss with a pretty boy who also had superpowers, stole a lot of supplies, and ran away. Now he still has the nerve to come back. Ha.

The man scoffed inwardly, then spat out a mouthful of spittle and grinned lewdly. “Unfortunately, the boss is currently getting along well with his new wife. Who would dare to mess with him?”

Li Liling's face darkened. She naturally understood the meaning behind his words. If she hadn't really had no other choice, how could she have come back here?

Given the previous situation, coming back would be like walking into a trap, eagerly courting death.

"Hey, Liangzi, please help me... I really have something urgent to do. Just let me in, and I'll take responsibility if anything goes wrong."

Li Liling cleared her throat, lowered her voice, and reluctantly took out two small crystals from her bag, stuffing them into the hands of the man named Liangzi as she spoke.

"Wait! Wait a minute, let me warn you, ever since that incident six months ago, the boss has been looking for you everywhere, threatening to skin you alive, tsk tsk..."

Although Liangzi shook off Li Liling's hand, he still held the small crystal he had put in his hand quite tightly.

Hearing Liangzi's words, Li Liling felt a chill run down her spine.

But given the explosive news about the supplies, she had no choice but to pin her hopes on her ex-boyfriend.

After all, her ex-boyfriend Jiang Jian had twenty people under his command.

Thinking of the Lucky Supermarket she had visited two days ago, Li Liling kept encouraging herself.

That's right, she was desperate and wanted to get supplies from that supermarket.

After several attempts to persuade him, Liangzi still refused to let Li Liling in.

The sun is scorching like fire.

This greatly worried Li Liling.

She ate a mutated, moldy potato a couple of days ago, and now her stomach is starting to hurt, with cold sweat pouring down her forehead from the pain.

She was at her wit's end. Seizing the brief moment when Liangzi was distracted, she forcefully pushed aside the man blocking the doorway and rushed inside like a madwoman.

"Holy shit, %@&#!"

Liangzi rubbed his bald head, grinned, and angrily took off to chase after him.

In six months, the layout of this small stronghold remained largely unchanged. After Li Liling ran in, she headed straight for Jiang Jian's residence.

The man's pace was faster, and before long Liangzi caught up with Li Liling, grabbing her arm tightly with his large hand.

"Don't push your luck! You might not care about your life, but I do!" Liangzi said with a ferocious expression, instantly changing his grip on her arm to strangling her neck, pulling her away as he did so.

"Scarface Jiang, Brother Scarface!"

"Scarface Jiang, come out here! It's urgent!" Li Liling was half-dragged on the ground, ignoring the pain of her arms being twisted behind her back, and shouted at the top of her lungs.

Liangzi got angry and slapped him across the face.

"Snapped."

Li Liling's already dirty face now had a handprint, and there was a faint trace of blood at the corner of her mouth. Her withered face instantly turned red, as if it were about to swell up.

"Shut up, you shameless bastard! I'll *$%^\u0026*(!*…"

Liangzi had seen what happened to those who ruined the boss's plans, and he didn't want to be implicated, so he was already swearing.

In the midst of the argument, a burly man with a scarred face emerged from the dilapidated bungalow.

Scarface, with a cigarette butt dangling from his mouth, squinted at Li Liling, who was lying face down on the ground after being knocked down.

"Who was making all that noise? It's you, you traitor!"

With eyes full of hatred, Jiang Daoba reached out and grabbed her hair.

"Ah! I was wrong, I was really wrong, Scarface, please let me go, I have important news!" Li Liling cried out in pain, her eyes wide as she pleaded for mercy.

"Let you go? Haha!" Jiang Daoba laughed as if he had heard a joke, and his feet were not idle either, kicking Li Liling a few times.

The final kick sent Li Liling flying several meters away.

Anyone who dares to cuckold Chiang Kai-shek and steal supplies will only face certain death!

“Liangzi, drag him away and give your ex-sister-in-law a good ‘care’.”

Jiang the Scarface was somewhat agitated, speaking through gritted teeth, and the scar on his face trembled slightly, making him look extremely ferocious.

Li Liling clutched her chest, trembling with pain.

Thinking of the consequences of her return, she could only endure the pain and desperately crawl toward Jiang Daoba before Liangzi arrived.

"Scarface, brother, listen to me, give me three minutes! I know I've wronged you, I was blind, it's all my fault! I came back this time to atone for my sins!"

"Scarface, so this is my ex-sister-in-law, tsk tsk."

Li Liling's words were interrupted by a young woman behind her.

The young woman walked to Jiang Daoba's side, leaned against him, and looked at Li Liling kneeling on the ground with a hint of mockery.

"you shut up!"

"I know where the supplies are!" Li Liling blurted out before the woman could complain.

"There's a supermarket in City A! It has a lot of supplies!"

"Instant noodles, milk, fruit, hot meals—everything is fresh!"
