Chapter 243: Chapter 243: Quick, take me to the ICU! Song Qian looked at the two people hugging tightly and could only say,\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Jiang Yan, Kong Wu and I only took half a day off; we’re heading back now. If you encounter any trouble in the meantime or need anything, you can find us at Battalion 7 in Residence Zone 3.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>There’s a passageway to the Underground City, you can ask Su Dai for the specifics. As for the ground city, a blizzard is going to worsen during this period, and a lightning storm will also hit. Unless it’s an emergency, don’t go up there.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Jiang Yan nodded, “Okay.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Song Qian initially wanted to persuade her once more to consider his invitation, but realizing that there were surveillance cameras in the tunnel, he said nothing more.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>After the two left, Su Dai’s agitated emotions gradually stabilized.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>She wiped away her tears, took out her keys to open the door, and pulled Jiang Yan into the house.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>As usual, there was one room and one bath.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The light was dim, and the room was surrounded by walls without windows, save for a vent in the corner of the ceiling.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>There was a small double bed in the room, a simple dining table, two chairs, and a pile of boxes.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>At first glance, it resembled a prison.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The oppressive air only added to the feeling of suppression.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Yet, such a room was considered an unreachable luxury for ordinary people.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>It had been over a month since Jiang Yan and Su Dai last met, and Su Dai had aged significantly and lost weight.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>She had more wrinkles around her eyes, and her hand tightly clutching Jiang Yan’s was calloused.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>It was unclear what she had been through.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>But Jiang Yan didn’t think it appropriate to ask.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Both Sun Jingtao and Ye Qing were topics that would only bring pain.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Jiang Yan, I’m really happy to see you again,” Su Dai said with a choked voice, her eyes suddenly reddening.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>She wasn’t usually a fragile or emotional person, but for some reason, upon seeing Jiang Yan, all the pain and grievances she had suffered lately rushed up in a surge.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Back in the Shallow Bay District, Jiang Yan was her starlight.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Now, when she felt her path was nearing its end, this starlight had reappeared.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Jiang Yan was just about to say something comforting when the house door was pounded upon heavily.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Not just their door, but also the neighboring ones.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The corridor suddenly erupted with noise: barking dogs and men’s harsh scolding voices.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The soundproofing of these apartments was exceptionally poor.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The two women exchanged a wary look, instantly snapping out of their previous nostalgia and sitting up straight in alert.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Room inspection! Open up the door quickly!”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>A hint of panic flashed in Su Dai’s eyes before she quickly whispered,\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Jiang Yan, it’s the Xue Family, put on your mask!”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Jiang Yan: “The Xue Family?? Persistent pests.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Bang bang bang!” The knocking sounded again.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Su Dai took a deep breath, stood up, and said politely, “Coming, coming!”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The door creaked open, and Su Dai poked her head out, “Brother Xue, what can I do for you?”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Seen this woman?” A young man with handsome features but sinister and lecherous eyes was speaking, holding an A4 paper with a printed headshot.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Su Dai squinted at the photo for a few moments and shook her head, “No.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Open the door fully, what are you hiding? Is she hiding in your room?!” The man spoke arrogantly, his temper clearly poor, and kicked the door open with a loud ‘bang.’\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Su Dai’s thin frame was bracing the doorframe and stumbled backward involuntarily.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Jiang Yan saw this and stood up swiftly, striding over to steady her with an outstretched hand.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The man saw Jiang Yan and swept his bright flashlight over her face, his lips twitching into a sneer:\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“I knew you were hiding someone; take off the mask!”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The girl in front of him had fair and delicate skin, and her eyes were lively as they glinted like water.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>As for her figure, even though she was wearing a black unisex Padding jacket, it was clear she was tall and slender.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>She was obviously not the woman in the photo.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>But she seemed far more attractive than the woman he was searching for.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Moreover, as a resident of Residence Zone 1 in the Underground City, she was alone, powerless, and dependent, and if he wanted to bully her for a few nights, it wouldn’t be impossible.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>After bullying her, he could package her up as a gift for his distant cousin Xue Miaomiao.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Tsk, not only could he rid himself of the infamy of being a failing keeper of a golden cage, but he might also even receive a reward!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The very thought was delightful.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Brother Xue, this young lady seems to be someone Captain Song Qian brought over. She just arrived at the base yesterday and isn’t that Jiang Nana,” a cautious man next to him said.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Xue Chengcheng sneered at this, “Heh, Captain? Flame Base is full of people calling themselves captain; Song Qian is nothing!”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“But he’s Mo Jingsheng’s man, and Miss Mo is still at the base,” the man added in a low voice, his lips mumbling.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Jiang Yan glanced over; the man speaking was the same worker who had declared her unmarried and unpregnant at the Inner City Ice Cave.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>This man of the Xue Family had other roles too?\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Young lady, are you deaf? Didn’t you hear what I said, take off the mask and let me see!” Seeing Jiang Yan not moving, Xue Chengcheng shouted again in anger.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Su Dai became anxious and shielded Jiang Yan behind her, “Brother Xue, she’s my friend—not the person you’re looking for.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“I’m aware she’s not the one I’m after, but I’ve taken a fancy to her today!” Xue Chengcheng said, stepping forward to grab Jiang Yan.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Jiang Yan sneered inwardly.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Was there a hereditary illness in the Xue Family, making each member a perverse lunatic?\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>If it wasn’t for the sensitivity of the current location, she’d really like to shoot him on the spot.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>But even without a gun, handling him would be easy.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Still, with the current situation outnumbered and outpowered, she had to play along.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>With that in mind, she feigned terror and shrank backward.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>But her fear and retreat seemed only to excite the man’s vile thoughts further, “Everyone out, close the door, and don’t interrupt my fun!”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The men behind Xue Chengcheng looked at each other hesitantly for a second but dared not disobey his orders.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Su Dai already knew what he was planning and, unafraid of death, reached out to stop him: “Brother Xue, don’t touch my sister!”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Looking for trouble!”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Xue Chengcheng reached to his waist, pulled out a sharp dagger, and aimed to slash at Su Dai’s wrist.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>If the knife fell, Su Dai’s hand would be gone.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Jiang Yan’s brows furrowed, and Hua Bao, who had been hiding inconspicuously on her shoulder, leaped into action.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Six vines shot out, two ensnaring his legs, two grabbing his arms, one coiling around his neck, and the last one probing into his nostril.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>With a thud, Xue Chengcheng felt an itch in his nose followed by a slip and fell, face-forward, towards the doorway.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The dagger he held clattered out of his hand.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>To an onlooker, it appeared he’d overexerted himself and lost his balance, resulting in his fall.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Brother Xue!!”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“What—”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Exclamations of surprise arose as they moved forward to help him up.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>But it seemed as if Xue Chengcheng was pinned down by some heavy object, unable to move a muscle.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“I’ll crush you for bullying Mom! Hmph! I’ll crush you!” Hua Bao’s large head relentlessly pounded into Xue Chengcheng’s chest.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Xue Chengcheng, lying on the floor, felt his limbs restrained by an invisible force with a throbbing pain in his chest.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>It was as if he was being struck by a boulder.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Pain, it hurts! Help me up, get me medicine!” Within moments, Xue Chengcheng’s face turned pale and was drenched in sweat.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He had a congenital heart condition, had recently developed an addiction to certain drugs, and led a chaotic private life. Now he thought his heart condition was induced by his drug use.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>His momentary optimism vanished, replaced by sheer panic:\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Hurry! I’m not gonna make it! Take me to the ICU!”\u003C\u002Fp>",1420,"2026-06-06T15:07:16.289Z",1,"novelbin.me","effd010a48a59606ab0cb5498fa871496326777515a715c197bdc63115697293","apocalypse-after-being-reborn-i-stocked-up-on-al-chapter-244","apocalypse-after-being-reborn-i-stocked-up-on-al-chapter-242",469,"https:\u002F\u002Fnovelzhen.com\u002Fimages\u002Fcovers\u002Fapocalypse-after-being-reborn-i-stocked-up-on-al-cover.jpg"]
