Chapter 94: Chapter 84: Partnering Up_1
“Do you want some? If you do, a pack of instant noodles will do. I’ll sleep with you tonight.”
A somewhat familiar female voice sounded from the side. Zhou Cheng turned his head and saw a short-haired woman in a floral dress. She was quite tall and the floral dress she wore was rather respectable.
She had long legs, she was thin, and she didn’t have the delicate beauty that his wife had.
“Sister Lin, this…”
Looking at the woman, Zhou Cheng opened his mouth and was momentarily stunned. He was familiar with this woman. She was his dormitory neighbor. They often saw each other, so they were quite familiar.
But he didn’t expect that she would actively seek him out.
“It’s good that she’s gone, or else they would starve to death later on.”
The woman, whom he called Sister Lin, was older than Zhou Cheng. She looked to be in her thirties. She sat next to Zhou Cheng and leaned her slender body, dressed only in the thin floral dress, onto him. “Don’t you agree?”
“Sister Lin…”
Zhou Cheng looked at the woman who stuck to him. Her body felt completely different from his wife’s delicate allure. He stiffened, his voice raspy.
He didn’t know why, but his heart slightly fluttered, and he didn’t avoid Sister Lin’s approach.
“You’re a man and I’m a woman, it’s not a big deal for us to sleep together. You’re alone now, you need a woman to care for you. If you feel satisfied, let’s live together in the future.”
Sister Lin took Zhou Cheng’s hand and looked at him tenderly, “I’m not after your food, rather, after we become a family, I’ll treat you like my man, whatever we earn later on we’ll share it.”
“You can do whatever you wish with your food. We won’t touch it. The man your wife is with is getting a job here. He might come back later on. I’ll be your woman then, you and Brother Zhao will work together and whatever you earn, we’ll share it.”
Sister Lin looked at the man in front of her and spoke in a gentle voice. Her voice had a unique tenderness.
Zhou Cheng looked at Sister Lin, her words trickling through his heart…
Slowly a flame began to rise in his heart.
“You won’t trade food anymore?”
Zhou Cheng asked word by word.
“I won’t. I didn’t go many times either, only when desperately hungry. If that man comes back here, we’ll have a food source and I won’t go anymore.”
Sister Lin noticed Zhou Cheng’s movement and smiled, “In the future, the three of us can live together…”
Before Sister Lin finished speaking, her mouth was abruptly shut and she was suddenly pushed onto the bed. She squinted her eyes quickly, opened the covers, covered both of them, and laid down.
“Rustle~”

………
“Squeak~”
Under the sunset, the car stopped outside the canteen rooftop gathering place.
Xu Xiu’s alluring body leaned on the back of the chair, the seatbelt running across her shoulder, leaving two wide marks on her beautiful body.
She looked at the exterior wall of the gathering place through the car window. Seeing that she had truly been brought to the gathering place, Xu Xiu breathed a sigh of relief and felt a great deal of gratitude towards the man who had taken her away for a day.
He had kept his word and hadn’t lied to her. He was a man worth relying on.
Thinking about reliance caused Xu Xiu to panic. This wasn’t what a married woman should think of, she hurriedly unbuckled the seatbelt, opened the car door, and walked down from the car.
“Everyone go back and get some rest. Keep up your spirits, and continue tomorrow,”
Li Ming got out of the driver’s seat and saw all the men and women getting out of the two vehicles. He spoke with a smile.
Once they finish digging in Villa Area [Right Three] tomorrow, they can start planting crops!
Even though he’d been dealing with the vegetables continually these
past two days, his stored fruits and vegetables were quickly decreasing. They needed fresh vegetables. Growing some quickly maturing leafy greens like spinach and amaranth would satisfy their daily needs promptly.
Of course, they also need to plant wheat and rice crops. Planting vegetables in five acres out of a hundred acres, and the rest for wheat, rice, and sweet potatoes, would be enough to meet their long-term needs.
These stored foods will buy him time to quickly increase his power, and serve as a reserve as well.
Li Ming knew that launching a successful homecoming attempt would require enough strength to defeat the giant creature. He needed to build up his strength before attempting to cross the thousand-kilometer distance to get home!
“Alright Brother Ming, I’ll call everyone early tomorrow morning to meet. We’ll wait for you downstairs!”
Chen Qiang was the first to respond loudly, standing at the entrance with four other men, all wearing smiles as they look at Li Ming.
“Brother Ming, I will also bring the other my sisters early tomorrow.”
Liu Li’s smile was as soft as ever. She walked up to Li Ming and spoke to him gently.
“Ok, Liu Li. If it is suitable, you can stay there tomorrow. Do what you would like to do every day, let me know what you want to eat. ”
Li Ming looked at this woman. After all, he had eaten her fast food once and felt bad about being cold to her again. He took out a few chocolates from his pocket, gave them to her, and then spoke to her after thinking for a while.
“Okay, Brother Ming, I will cook tomorrow, and see, I’ll see if I can live there.”
Liu Li’s eyes sparkled brighter, and she looked at Li Ming more softly, speaking gently.
“Ok, hurry back. I’ll pick you up tomorrow.”
Li Ming waved his hand with a smile. They had all taken good care of themselves on their first outing and had not encountered any difficulties. He led them into the colony with their weapons.
Everyone was laughing and joking as they followed him. There was a stark difference between their mentality and spirits compared to when they had left the gathering place. The colony guards stationed at the corners of the corridors were stunned to see how much energy the returning men and women had regained.
They were all hoping for the good fortune of being taken care of without having to work hard. They all thought it was improbable, but seeing their expectations come true, they were amazed.
When they arrived upstairs, the people at the colony were all amazed at the circumstances of the returning crowd. They scanned the crowd back and forth, a curiosity in their eyes.
People were chatting, greeting their acquaintances with friendly smiles. They were pleased that they could escape from their previous conditions to work in Li Ming’s villa area where they could get food and drink.
Together, these people formed a new group. When they went back and found their family members, they would also become a part of this group.
Li Ming knew that this colony was in his grasp. Of course, he would have to first resolve the potential threat of the two leaders…
Xu Xiu was walking among the crowd, very close to Li Ming. It seemed as if the group knowingly let the two of them walk together. Xu Xiu was a bit uncomfortable with this at first, but then seeing the crowds around her and the people close to her, she can’t help but feel a bit happy too.

She was glad to be chosen by Li Ming that time, becoming a part of these energetic people, not like the numb ones from hunger around them.
When she suddenly recalled how good Li Ming was to her today, she felt a pang of guilt, but she decided to suppress her guilt and work hard.
She knew Li Ming wanted her, but she was not willing to give up easily.
She looked towards her bunk, but it was blocked by the crowd and she couldn’t see it very clearly.
At that moment, everyone around her was busy saying goodbye and thanking Li Ming. She also turned to Li Ming to express her sincere gratitude for his care.
In the far end of the sleeping quarters, the commotion attracted Zhao Wen’s attention. He got up and saw that everyone who had left had come back, all high-spirited. His eyes lit up in excitement.
The only way to survive, is secured!
But when he saw the slim figure of a beautiful woman, he couldn’t help but frown, taking a quick glance at Zhou Cheng’s bunk.
