Reborn amidst natural disaster, my childhood sweetheart and dad help me stock up and win effortlessl

Two voices in my head were arguing incessantly.

As Jiang Li pondered, she felt her palms being warmly enveloped.

She looked up and saw Ye Jingmo holding her hand, his eyes filled with determination.

Jiang Li knew that Ye Jingmo was telling her that no matter what decision she made, he would support her without hesitation.

My initial conflicting thoughts gradually shifted to one side.

Jiang Li took a deep breath and calmed herself down before speaking.

"I'll leave some medicine for us, and all the rest of the medicine we got from the pharmacy is for you."

She got all these medicines for free, and donating them all wouldn't hurt her too much.

Scarface was very excited upon hearing this, and Jiang Li continued.

“These medicines are considered as a donation to the government and do not need to be repaid. However, after this donation, I do not want anyone else to come to me asking for medicine.”

Scarface knew that coming to ask for medicine was an extremely shameless act.

A selfish person would either refuse or make exorbitant demands.

Jiang Li's selfless donation of medicines shows she is a person of great righteousness.

Using the backpack as cover, Jiang Li put the medicine she had obtained from the pharmacy into her storage space.

Carrying a bulging backpack, Jiang Li reached the door and handed it to Scarface.

Scarface took the backpack, and the three of them saluted Jiang Li and Ye Jingmo in unison.

"Thank you for the medicine. We will remember this kindness. We will comply with your conditions."

"If you need anything in the future, feel free to come to me. My name is Zhao Peng. I will do my best to help you."

Jiang Li nodded slightly, then asked, "How are Captain Zhou Tian and Huang Caihe and his wife?"

"Captain Zhou has stitched up the wound; it just needs to heal."

Mr. Huang's wife was more seriously injured, but thanks to the medicine he brought, her condition is relatively stable.

The doctor said the critical period is over, and if recovery goes smoothly, I should be able to leave within a week.

This is one of the few pieces of good news in such a terrible situation.

After saying goodbye to Zhao Teng and the other two, Ye Jingmo closed the door, and Jiang Li turned around to meet Duo Duo's expectant gaze.

"Sister Jiang, will Mom and Dad come to pick me up soon?"

Jiang Li smiled and gently rubbed Duo Duo's little face. "Of course, once Duo Duo's mother recovers, she will come to take Duo Duo home soon."

Ye Jingmo silently walked to the window and found that the clothes he had used to block the window cracks were soaked with water.

Water is dripping onto the floor, making it damp.

The hotel carpet showed damp, circular marks.

Pudding brought a bucket from the toilet; it was brought by Jiang Li and Ye Jingmo.

Pudding patted Ye Jingmo's shoes twice with its paw.

Feeling the force on his foot, Ye Jingmo looked down.

Pudding proudly put down the bucket, puffed out her chest, and sat on the ground with her ears perked up, waiting for Ye Jingmo's praise.

"Good dog, Pudding is really amazing."

Ye Jingmo praised Pudding and gently patted its head.

Wang ~

I'm the best, I know that. This house can't function without me.

The torrential rain lasted for a week, and the floodwaters rose rapidly like a surging tide.

Residents on lower floors have no choice but to move to higher floors.

The originally peaceful atmosphere turned tense, and it was just a spark away from igniting the shell.

One day, Huang Caihe's voice came from outside the door.

“Mr. Ye, Ms. Jiang, it is I—Huang Caihe.”

Duoduo and Pudding were playing when they heard a familiar voice and immediately ran to the door to open it.

"Dad, mom."

As soon as the door opened, Duoduo rushed into Huang Caihe's arms.

Huang Caihe picked up Duoduo in his arms, his eyes filled with tenderness.

Huang Caihe's wife was pale, but a warm smile appeared on her lips.

Being able to be with her family is the happiest thing in her heart.

After a moment of tender cuddling, Huang Caihe realized they were still standing at the door of someone else's room.

Huang Caihe said apologetically, "I just met with Duoduo and forgot I was still at the door. I'm sorry. Thank you for your help during this time."

Huang Caihe and his wife bowed together, expressing their sincere gratitude to Ye Jingmo and Jiang Li.

"Duoduo is very cute, and you also gave her a reward."

Jiang Li's eyebrows curved into a smile, and a bright smile appeared on her lips.

"By the way, you guys need to be careful lately. There was a riot downstairs, and the soldiers suppressed it with force. But things are still not very peaceful."

Huang Caihe approached Jiang Li and Ye Jingmo and whispered a warning to them.

Jiang Li inquired about the situation below with Huang Caihe, her brows still furrowed as she closed the door.

"Brother Mo, do you think the riots will escalate further?"

Jiang Li collapsed onto the bed, spreading her legs out in a starfish shape, but a heavy weight was pressing on her heart.

"If the rain doesn't stop and supplies can't keep up, large-scale riots are inevitable sooner or later."

However, Battalion Commander Zhou should be able to find a solution; extraordinary times call for extraordinary measures.

Ye Jingmo tidied up the trash in the house and prepared to throw it into the trash can at the corner of the hallway.

Every day, someone comes up to collect this pile of garbage.

"Brother Mo, remember to bring a weapon for self-defense."

Every time Jiang Li went out, she would remind Ye Jingmo, afraid that he would forget to bring his weapon and get hurt outside.

"Ah."

Ye Jingmo patiently answered Jiang Li's questions and opened the door to the trash can.

Walking down the dimly lit corridor, Ye Jingmo's relaxed expression suddenly hardened.

He pretended nothing was wrong and continued walking forward, then squatted down at the fork in the road to tie his shoelaces.

The person in the darkness caught a glimpse of Ye Jingmo stopping out of the corner of their eye, and immediately hid behind something to hide, afraid that Ye Jingmo would discover their presence.

After waiting for a long time without hearing any footsteps, the person in the darkness cautiously peeked out.

Ugh?

What about people?

Startled, the person in the darkness wanted to leave immediately.

The next moment, a knife was pressed against his neck.

The sharp blade left a bloody gash on his neck.

"Who are you? Why are you following me?"

Ye Jingmo stared sharply at the blond-haired man in front of him, his tone icy and piercing.

"Brother, don't wrong me. I was just passing by. This road isn't yours, and you won't let me walk on it?"

The blond-haired man grinned, seemingly not taking Ye Jingmo's threat seriously.

These ordinary people are just putting on an act; how could they possibly actually kill someone?

To be able to live here, one's family must be somewhat well-off.

For them, a criminal record for murder is a huge stain.

Ye Jingmo could tell what the blond-haired man was up to just by looking at his shifty eyes.

suddenly!

Ye Jingmo pushed his knees upwards with force.

The blond-haired man's stomach was violently struck, causing him intense pain.

He bent down abruptly, like a mantis shrimp having its head pulled up.

Ye Jingmo kicked the blond-haired man in the back again, sending him sprawling to the ground.

Ding!

The blade was stuck between the blond-haired man's fingers.

“You’re unwilling to tell the truth. I’ll cut off your fingers one by one, and hopefully you’ll still be this stubborn then.”

Ye Jingmo had studied interrogation and knew that fear was the most effective way to break a person's defenses.

The blond-haired man stared wide-eyed in terror at the knife that was inches away from him.

At that moment, he clearly realized that Ye Jingmo really would cut off his finger.
