She Rebuilt Her Fallen Country With Storage Space-Chapter 146 - Xiang Ying, This Little Cheater!

Xiang Ying half-jokingly blinked: “How will you protect me, by sleeping together?”

“Yes.” This time, Jie Chen actually admitted directly.

It was Xiang Ying’s turn to be stunned.

Jie Chen glanced behind her to ensure no one was coming.

He said: “The person using this whistle must be signaling to people outside, I guess a group of soldiers are secretly following us, waiting for an opportunity to strike.”

“I had reconnaissance soldiers check ahead just now, and not far ahead near the peak, there’s an abandoned ancient city, I’ve already ordered them to repair it overnight.”

“Tomorrow we will walk there, and keep everyone inside the city controlled, that insider, if they want the Jade Seal, will reveal themselves.”

Xiang Ying put away her joking expression, pondered for a moment: “What if they don’t want the Jade Seal?”

Jie Chen reflected: “Then they must be after our lives.”

In this case, the two of them must join forces in battle.

Xiang Ying nodded slightly: “I know what to do now, but aren’t you afraid that I might be that insider?”

Jie Chen’s cold, dark eyes locked on her, seemingly churning with waves.

“You’re not,” he said straightforwardly, “you could have killed all of us, because you have the capabilities.”

Xiang Ying’s phoenix eyes squinted with a touch of a smile, her hand resting on Jie Chen’s shoulder.

“They say, two people who share a bed know each other best, you really understand me.”

Jie Chen’s ears turned red, and he pushed her hand away directly: “Now is not the time for your absurdity!”

However, by pushing her, Xiang Ying was meant to stand firm, but suddenly felt a sharp pain in her abdomen.

She staggered a few steps, Jie Chen concerned she might fall, quickly stepped forward to hold her waist.

Seeing Xiang Ying bent over holding her stomach, he frowned and asked: “What’s wrong, are you uncomfortable?”

Xiang Ying gritted her teeth enduring it, her beautiful delicate face turning somewhat pale.

“It’s nothing, I just need to rest a bit.”

She waved her hand, but Jie Chen still insisted on escorting her over.

Fearing the children and Tao Xue would worry, Xiang Ying pretended like nothing happened, gleefully sitting back among them.

Xiang Xiu obediently asked Jie Chen: “Uncle Jie, won’t you sit down and have some food, my mother’s cooking is very good.”

Xiang Yuanlang coldly added a sentence: “It’s not something just any man can enjoy.”

Jie Chen paused, pressed his lips together: “You guys eat, I’m not hungry.”

Then he turned and left, intending to set the stage ahead of time: inviting the guest into the urn.

But Xiang Ying harbored a trace of doubt in her heart.

Could it be that she contracted Water Worm Disease?

From the moment she entered Mang State, she had occasionally suffered sudden abdominal pains, though not frequent, each time her limbs felt stiff and numb.

This was suspicious.

By the time it came to sleep at night, the north wind outside howled, Xiang Ying cuddled the children, huddling inside the warm tent.

She was completely sleepless, ducking into her personal space to check her body routinely.

Last time when unlocking 100 figures, the space finally displayed the conditions for upgrading to the eleventh floor.

It was quite simple, requiring only one hundred thousand pieces of wood to unlock the upper floors.

During these days on Snow Mountain, their least worry was the consumption of wood.

Xiang Ying went to the second floor to check; her stockpiled wood completely covered the entire second floor, piled so high that one couldn’t even step inside.

Now she couldn’t use up one hundred thousand pieces of wood immediately. If the medical office needed an upgrade, it also had to wait until the upper floors were unlocked.

Xiang Ying could only use the existing tools to perform a health check on herself.

First, she skillfully drew a tube of blood and put it into the machine for an automatic check.

A minute later, the report came out showing all indicators were normal, except her hemoglobin was a bit low.

She was anemic and needed fortification.

She could not check other technical issues for the moment, so Xiang Ying took out some microelement supplements and drank them.

Leaving the space, she covered her head with the quilt and fell asleep.

Until the break of dawn, she was awakened by the delighted voices of her three little ones.

“It’s raining, Mother, come take a look.”

Xiang Ying felt unwell, shrank into the quilt, and murmured in a muffled voice, “It’s so cold, don’t go out and play in the water.”

Hearing her mention it was cold, the three little ones immediately dropped the tent curtain and burrowed back into the quilt.

Soon after, the sound of gongs for distributing food echoed outside.

Skinny Monkey, carrying the gong, ran over and excitedly said outside the tent, “Sister-in-law, hurry to get some porridge; the deputy general made four pots of meat porridge today because of the cold weather.”

Tao Xue half-awake opened her eyes: “Meat porridge? We should go.”

Outside, it gradually became noisy with people coming and going, and Xiang Ying could no longer sleep.

After the rain, the mountain felt even colder, especially with the cold wind blowing.

She added a thin vest inside the three little ones’ clothes and padded their shoes with a soft cloth.

Mainly to prevent the shoes from getting wet and causing illness.

Next, Xiang Ying split the extra wood boards and made a few simple oil-paper umbrellas with waterproof kerosene fabric.

The little ones excitedly bounced up and down.

Xiang Xiuxiu: “Mother is so amazing, you can even make these.”

Xiang Ying smiled: “The materials for these umbrellas are hard to come by, each of you keep one, don’t lose it.”

Tao Xue took an umbrella and brought back a few bowls of porridge. Xiang Ying took a walk outside, and when she returned, she carried a few hot cabbage and meat pies in her hand.

Eating the pies while drinking the porridge, she finally felt much warmer.

At that moment, Jie Chen came out from his tent, intending to meet with the other military supervisors for a discussion.

As he passed by the tent distributing meat porridge, he caught a glimpse of Lu Feiyi exiting with a handful of porridge, wearing a straw coat.

He paused his steps, lips thinning coldly, “Hold it.”

Lu Feiyi turned around: “Deputy general, is something the matter?”

Jie Chen approached him, his icy and dark gaze falling on the mink scarf around Lu Feiyi’s neck.

Acid Scholar popped his head from behind and exclaimed in surprise, “Huh? Your scarf looks exactly like our deputy general’s.”

Seeing Jie Chen also wearing one, Lu Feiyi gently chuckled, “Was it also given by the boss?”

Hearing him say this, Jie Chen’s frown deepened.

Lu Feiyi raised his hand and touched the mink, sniffing slightly, “The boss was worried about me being sick, so he lent it to me specifically for warmth.”

Jie Chen’s jawline tightened, rain sliding down the brim of his straw coat.

Lu Feiyi bowed slightly, “It’s cold, I won’t hold up the deputy general here any longer.”

He departed with a smile.

Seeing his own master’s frosty expression, in order to ease the atmosphere, Acid Scholar jokingly said, “The elder princess must have many mink scarves, otherwise how could she give them away upon meeting someone?”

Unexpectedly, he was met with a stern gaze from Jie Chen.

“She only has two, what do you think?”

Xiang Ying this little trickster, still claimed she only gave one to him!

Jie Chen took off the mink scarf, tucked it into his chest, planning to return it to her later.
