Lin Sijia took a deep breath and hurriedly took Mo Qi from Zhao Haoâs shoulder.
âWhat happened to Mo Qi?!â
Lin Sijia knew Mo Qiâs strength. After all, she was present when Mo Qi practiced.
âItâs okay. Eating is more important. Eat first.â
Lin Sijia was stunned for a moment, but she was no longer as excited as before. Now, she was full of worry and was thinking about Mo Qi. After all, they had lived together for so long after the apocalypse. Even if Lin Sijia did not treat Mo Qi as a family member, she had long treated Mo Qi as her younger sister.
âThe dishes are out. You and Brother Zhao eat first. Iâll go and take a look at Mo Qi.â
âIs she injured? Why did she faint? Did something happen to you?â
Ye Xingchen didnât stand on ceremony with Lin Sijia. He was tired and anxious, and he was indeed hungry. After all, he wanted to come back early in the morning, so he only had a few bites of breakfast before driving back. Not to mention him, even Zhao Hao was hungry.
âSomething happened, but she fainted mainly because someone drugged her.â
Ye Xingchen led Zhao Hao to his seat. He picked up the rice that was already served and stuffed it into his mouth.
âI donât know what drug it is. Itâs been so long. Come over and eat first. A whole night has passed, it can wait.â
Ye Xingchen was quite relaxed. After all, from the tone of Mo Guanshan and the others, the tea and food should not have been poisoned.
After all, they werenât fools. They wouldnât poison their own food. They cherished their lives. Wouldnât poisoning their food be suicide? Mo Guanshan and the others werenât that foolish.
Therefore, at least this drug would not be fatal.
As for why Mo Qi was unconscious for so long, Ye Xingchen guessed that the drug was probably something like knockout powder. As for why she was unconscious for so long, it was nothing more than Mo Qi being too greedy and eating too much.
Lin Sijia hesitated for a moment, but she still placed Mo Qi on the sofa to examine her.
Just as Ye Xingchen had guessed, the food that Mo Qi had eaten had been laced with GHB, which was the so-called obedient drug in the legends.
The government had banned the circulation of such things, but it did not mean that they could not be obtained in the black market.
Lin Sijia frowned. It was not that they had not come into contact with this kind of thing before. It was extremely harmful to the human body. It injured the central nervous system. However, there was no antidote for it. They could only wait for Mo Qi to wake up.
âWhat did she eat?â
Lin Sijia was very unhappy. How could Mo Qi eat such things when she was still growing?
Ye Xingchen was almost done eating. He didnât leave any food for Lin Sijia. He and Zhao Hao had already cleaned up. He took out a few of Lin Sijiaâs favorite dishes from the space.
âThe people in the safety fortress gave us a welcome gift. Brother Zhao and I didnât drink much. But I didnât keep an eye on Mo Qi, so she ate a lot.â
The meal was dull. Zhao Hao went downstairs after lunch. Lin Sijiaâs eyes turned red as she ate.
âThis thing is very harmful to the body. Mo Qi is only so old. Iâm afraid that it will hurt her nerves.â
Upstairs, Ye Xingchen was coaxing Lin Sijia, while downstairs, Li Anran was complaining to Zhao Hao.
âYou didnât even reply to my message. I thought you were missing.â
Li Anran punched Zhao Hao in the chest.
She wasnât that worried about Zhao Hao. Compared to Zhao Hao, she was actually more worried about what would happen to Ye Xingchen.
To put it bluntly, Zhao Hao and Ye Xingchen had been gone for so long. Li Anran even had a faint hope in her heart that something bad would happen to Zhao Hao. Then, Ye Xingchen would come back alone to apologize to her and give her some compensation.
It would be best if Ye Xingchen could keep her and support her for the rest of her life.
In the end, she did not expect Zhao Hao to return with Ye Xingchen unscathed. He was not injured at all, and he was empty-handed.
âYou, why did you come back empty-handed?â
This was the first thing Li Anran said after seeing Zhao Hao.
As soon as she said this, not only was Zhao Hao stunned, but even Li Anran herself was stunned. She did not expect to say what was on her mind.
âAre you hurt? Aiyo, you didnât come back for so long and didnât reply to my messages. 1 was so worried.â
Li Anran held Zhao Haoâs hand and sized him up from head to toe. In her heart, she was thinking about this useless trash. After following Ye Xingchen out for so long, he actually didnât get anything good back.
Zhao Haoâs eyes darkened. He pulled his hand away from Li Anranâs and walked over to the sofa.
âIâm not injured. Have you eaten?â
Zhao Hao had been away for more than a day, and Li Anranâs food had been sent over by Lin Sijia. It was nothing more than instant noodles, bread, biscuits, and the like. When she heard that Zhao Hao and the others had returned, Li Anran hurriedly cooked the instant noodles that Lin Sijia had given her and ate them.
After all, there was only one bowl of instant noodles and one ham sausage. It was not enough for her and Zhao Hao to share.
Hearing Zhao Haoâs question, Li Anran rolled her eyes. âI havenât eaten yet. Iâm so worried about you that 1 canât even eat. You heartless person, you tell me if Iâve eaten?!â
Originally, when Li Anran said this, Zhao Hao felt a little guilty because he had just finished lunch at Ye Xingchenâs place. The food was quite good.
However, before Zhao Hao could feel guilty for long, he walked into the kitchen where he smelled the strong scent of instant noodles.
Zhao Hao, who had been eating instant noodles for many years, could even tell it was pickled cabbage-flavored noodles. Moreover, the instant noodles must have been cooked not long ago.
Zhao Hao turned around and glanced at Li Anran. The guilt in his heart instantly faded.
âYou didnât eat? Then you eat first. Iâm going to take a shower and sleep for a while. Iâm a little tired.â
It could be said that Zhao Hao did not sleep at all last night.
He had been waiting by the window in the room.
That place was unfamiliar. Even if Ye Xingchen did not say it, Zhao Hao felt that he had the obligation to stand guard to ensure Ye Xingchenâs safety.
Zhao Hao barely slept the entire night, so he didnât have much of an appetite in the morning. He only had a few bites with Ye Xingchen before coming back.
After taking a quick shower, Zhao Hao didnât even look at Li Anran. He went straight into the room and lay on the bed.
For some reason, Zhao Hao suddenly remembered what Ye Xingchen had said to him before..
