Noticing Yao Ran's disappointed look, Yuan Rihui said, "Miss Yao, about the person living in the slum-he actually contacted us a few days ago."
Yao Ran raised her eyebrows slightly at this and curiously asked, "Why did he reach out to you?"
Yuan Rihui replied, "He was asking about Brother Long's shelter location and the owner's identity. Judging from the questions and information he wanted, it seemed that he planned to join Brother Long's team with his people."
Tapping her fingers lightly on the armchair, Yao Ran fell into deep thought. A few seconds later, a slight smile appeared on the corner of her lips.
Looking at Yuan Rihui, she said, "Brother Yuan, can you help me arrange a meeting with him?"
Yuan Rihui nodded. "Sure. When would you like to meet him?"
"As soon as possible," Yao Ran answered.
Hearing this, Yuan Rihui said, "Alright, I will arrange the meeting immediately after I return."
When he said this, Long Yu walked out of the kitchen. Seeing his girlfriend sitting there, he smiled and asked, "Ran Ran, when did you wake up? I just wanted to go up and wake you up."
Yao Ran turned to look at him and smiled. "I just woke up. What were you doing in the kitchen?"
Knowing she was worried about him cooking something inedible again, Long Yu replied, "I was heating the steamed buns and helping A Xuan prepare the breakfast. Do you want to eat now?"
Yao Ran nodded, then turned to Ling Yi and Yuan Rihui. She asked, "Boss Ling, Brother Yuan, would you like to join us for breakfast?"
Since the fog had appeared, Ling Yi and the others had only been eating compressed biscuits to conserve supplies and barely managed to keep their clients by selling the remaining supplies to them.
Although refusing the invitation was the logical decision given the value of supplies, the sweet smell of the steamed buns in the air made it hard for Ling Yi to say no.
Secretly swallowing his saliva, Ling Yi thickened his face and accepted the invitation.
Sensing the shift in her mood, Long Yu held her hand and asked, "Ran Ran, since we don't have anything urgent to do today, how about visiting the trading market? Maybe we will find something good there."
After a moment's thought, Yao Ran nodded. "Mhm. I'm curious about the current value of supplies."
With her agreement, Long Yu turned to Shi Xuan and asked, "A Xuan, will you join us?"
Shi Xuan chuckled and shook his head. "No, you two go ahead. I don't want to be a third
wheel. Besides, I need to start my morning training."
With that, Shi Xuan headed to the third floor, which served as a training area.
Alone with Long Yu, Yao Ran smiled and said, "Let's go."
Before leaving, Yao Ran retrieved their backpacks and weapons from her space. Equipped and ready, they set off toward the trading market in the base's central area.
As they stepped out of the villa, Yao Ran was caught off guard by a sudden gust of dust.
"Cough, cough! Where did all this dust come from?" she asked, coughing.
Long Yu gently patted her back, concern evident in his voice as he asked, "Are you alright?"
Yao Ran nodded, then took out two masks from her space and handed one to him. "Put this on quickly. There is too much dust."
After putting on the masks, they continued their journey.
"The air smells awful," Yao Ran said as she scrunched her nose from the pungent smell in the
air.
"Mhm," Long Yu agreed without changing his expression.
The trading market wasn't far, and they arrived within half an hour. However, as they entered, Yao Ran was overwhelmed by an even worse stench.
