through the streets of Crystal Cove, her arms straining under the weight of the huge bags she carried.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The eyes of the people around her followed her every step, their reactions a mixture of envy and suspicion.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Some openly ogled the bags, their lips curling with desire at the sight of so much food in a world where hunger was a constant companion.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Others sneered, their voices dripping with malice.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Look at her,” one woman muttered.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Bet she sold herself for that.” “Yeah, probably to some fat old guy,” a man added with a snicker.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“No way she could have gotten that much food any other way.” Xi Ping kept her head down and ignored the taunts.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>She had no time for their petty words, not when her arms were aching, and her mind was spinning from the events that had just unfolded.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The memory of Su Jiyai’s glowing purple eyes and her lips against Xi Ping’s neck flashed in her mind, but she shook it off.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>She needed to focus on getting home.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Her house came into view, a dilapidated building that seemed to sag under its own weight.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>She approached the door, and as she stepped inside, she was greeted by her foster mother’s shrill voice.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“You’re back already?” her foster mother, a sharp-featured woman with a permanent scowl, snapped.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“What, you couldn’t even finish the job you were sent to do?” Xi Ping didn’t respond.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Instead, she placed the bags gently on the floor, her body grateful for the release from their weight.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>She could feel the stares of her foster father and brother boring into her.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>They were sitting in the corner of the room, lazily lounging as though the idea of helping her hadn’t even crossed their minds.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Useless girl,” her foster father grumbled, his voice thick with disdain.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Always coming back empty-handed.” Xi Ping’s foster brother, younger but just as cruel, smirked.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Maybe we should sell her to that old man in the next town.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>I heard he’s offering three packs of noodles for a good wife.” Her foster father nodded in agreement.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Three packs of noodles would be worth more than she is.” Xi Ping remained silent, her face expressionless as she reached down and unzipped one of the bags.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The moment the contents were revealed, the room fell into stunned silence.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Her foster mother’s eyes widened as she saw the neatly packed bags of rice and cup noodles inside.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>She rushed forward, grabbing one of the rice bags with trembling hands.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Oh my God,” her foster mother gasped, her face lighting up with uncharacteristic excitement.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“We’re rich!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>We’re finally rich!” Her foster father and brother were immediately on their feet, crowding around her as they stared at the bounty of food.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The smirks they had worn moments ago were replaced with expressions of greed and eagerness.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Her foster mother hugged her husband and son, her previous anger forgotten as she gushed over their sudden windfall.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“We’ll never go hungry again!” she exclaimed.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“This is enough food to last us years!” Xi Ping stood back, watching the scene unfold with cold detachment.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>She had expected this reaction.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>She had known that the moment they saw the food, they would change their tune.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>But she had no intention of letting them keep her bound to this miserable life any longer.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“I brought enough food to last you twenty years,” Xi Ping said, her voice cutting through the chatter.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Now, keep your promise and set me free.” The room fell silent again, and her foster family turned to her, their expressions slowly hardening.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Her foster mother was the first to speak, her eyes narrowing.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Twenty years?” she echoed, her voice sharp.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“This isn’t enough to last twenty years.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>This food might last us five years at most.” Xi Ping clenched her fists, anger bubbling up inside her.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Don’t play games with me,” she said, her voice low and dangerous.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“You know exactly how much food this is.” Her foster mother crossed her arms, her lips curling into a smirk.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Do I?\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Maybe you miscounted.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Maybe you didn’t bring back as much as you thought.” Her foster father and brother were quick to back her up, nodding their heads and muttering in agreement.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Yeah, she’s right,” her brother said with a sneer.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“This isn’t enough for twenty years.” Xi Ping could see the trap they were setting for her, and it only fueled her anger.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>She had brought them more food than they had ever seen in their lives, and now they were trying to twist the situation to keep her under their control.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Fine,” she said, her voice cold.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“If you think it’s not enough, I’ll take a quarter of the food and live with you all.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>That way, you’ll still have plenty.” Her words made her foster mother’s smile falter for a moment, but the woman quickly recovered.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“A quarter?” she scoffed.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“You’re lucky we’re even considering letting you stay here with us.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>You think you deserve a quarter of what we worked for?” Xi Ping’s eyes flashed with fury.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“You didn’t work for any of this.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>I did.” Her foster father stepped forward, his face twisted in anger.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Watch your mouth, girl.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>You’re not in any position to make demands.” But Xi Ping wasn’t backing down.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>She had suffered enough under their roof, and now that she had the means to break free, she wasn’t going to let them manipulate her any longer.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“You promised me my freedom if I brought back enough food,” she said, her voice steady and firm.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“I’ve kept my end of the bargain.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Now it’s time for you to keep yours.” Her foster mother opened her mouth to argue, but Xi Ping raised a hand to stop her.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“If you don’t want me to leave, then give me a quarter of the food.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Otherwise, let me go.”  Finally, her foster mother let out a frustrated sigh.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Fine,” she snapped.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“But you will have to hunt for us one more year and then you can go.”\u003C\u002Fp>",1023,"2026-06-06T06:36:35.983Z",1,"novelbin.me","0f368b1b7e8979a6054a592d002b56ad6b60e6f0e8b08a714ed431cafaab2311","apocalypse-i-have-a-multiplier-system-chapter-187","apocalypse-i-have-a-multiplier-system-chapter-185",661,"https:\u002F\u002Fnovelzhen.com\u002Fimages\u002Fcovers\u002Fapocalypse-i-have-a-multiplier-system-cover.jpg"]
