Chapter 17 Grapes

After dinner, Chen Luo took out grapes to share with everyone.

"Come and eat grapes."

The dark purple grapes were big and sweet.

Chen Luo deliberately spoke very loudly so Mi Ling could hear him in her room.

Grapes?

That was Mi Ling's favorite fruit.

Mi Ling swallowed, but pretended to be disdainful, thinking they were definitely grapes that had been frozen for who knows how many days, not fresh, and not delicious.

After taking a shower, Mi Ling changed into a black house dress, revealing her originally snow-white skin and captivating face.

Mi Ling breathed a sigh of relief, feeling much more comfortable except for her stomach.

Mi Ling began to pack her belongings, preparing to move to Mi Li's room.

After packing, Mi Ling walked out of the room.

Ma Yu, who was in the living room, was very surprised to see Mi Ling. She hadn't realized Mi Ling was so beautiful.

Especially her figure; even she, a woman, couldn't help but take a few more glances.

Chen Luo couldn't resist stealing a few glances either. That figure made people feel impulsive just looking at it.

Chen Luo played the game while mumbling.

"Eat grapes, don't spit out the grape skins; don't eat grapes, spit out the grape skins."

Mi Ling frowned. This Chen Luo was really carefree.

What ability did he have to obtain the supplies, and what kind of bewitching potion had he given Mi Li?

Mi Ling said, "Mi Li, let's go, come with me to your room."

Mi Li hummed in agreement and followed Mi Ling into her room.

Mi Li also wanted to persuade her to listen to Chen Luo sooner rather than later.

Entering the room, Mi Ling first locked the door, then pushed Mi Li onto the bed.

Her hands weren't idle either, lightly pinching Mi Li's waist.

Mi Ling said fiercely, "Good for you, Mi Li. Your sister rushed back from school, and you stabbed your sister in the back, ganging up on her with an outsider."

"Tell me, what's going on? You didn't even help your sister speak just now."

Mi Li begged for mercy while trying to persuade her sister.

"Sister, if we are a team, we need to have a captain to avoid disagreements at crucial moments, and the best candidate for this is Chen Luo-gege (older brother)."

"Chen Luo-gege was afraid you wouldn't listen, so he deliberately treated you this way. He told me beforehand, and I think it makes sense."

Mi Ling was first stunned, then sneered, "You've been brainwashed, haven't you? As long as he shows enough ability, I will naturally listen to him."

"But he used such a low-level method; it's simply ridiculous, thinking he can make me submit with just a meal."

"Whether he's capable or not needs to be proven with practical action in a head-on confrontation."

"Besides, didn't you hear him say that he wants me to call him 'older brother'? He might not even be older than me, right?"

Mi Li completely missed the point, or rather, she was already convinced that Chen Luo was the most suitable candidate for captain.

Her sister was no match for Chen Luo.

Mi Li opened the door and came to Chen Luo, asking in a low voice, "Chen Luo-gege, what's your birthday? I also think, what if my sister is older than you? Isn't it too difficult for her to call you 'older brother'?"

Chen Luo found it amusing. He knew Mi Ling's birth date clearly, having investigated it beforehand.

"Ah, anyway, no matter how you ask, I'm older."

Mi Ling was actually two months older than Chen Luo, but ah, now he was two months older than her.

Mi Li excitedly told Mi Ling the answer: "Sister, Chen Luo-gege is indeed older than you."

Mi Ling irritably poked Mi Li's forehead with her finger. Was that the point?

If you want me to listen to you, fine, let's fight it out and see who laughs last.

After thinking for a while, Mi Ling decided to go out and find food herself. Even if there was rice at home, she wouldn't eat it. She didn't want anything from Chen Luo.

But Mi Ling didn't plan to go to a supermarket further away to get meat. First, even if there was any, it would be spoiled.

Second, she couldn't let her competitive spirit put herself in a dangerous environment. She couldn't die; her sister still depended on her.

Mi Ling planned to gather supplies in the residential area.

Mi Ling changed into more convenient clothing and was about to go out.

Mi Li asked, "Sister, where are you going?"

Mi Ling glanced at her, "I wouldn't dare eat someone's things; I'll look around in the residential area myself."

Going out to find things? Mi Li couldn't help but worry, what if she encountered danger?

Mi Li said, "Sister, I'll go with you."

Mi Ling was going out to find things, and Chen Luo had no reason to stop her, nor could he stop Mi Li from going.

If they were just looking in the residential area, there shouldn't be any danger.

Chen Luo said, "Take Mifan (rice) with you too. If there's any danger, it can give an early warning. Fawang (Dharma King), you follow behind them."

Chen Luo signaled Fawang not to take action until they encountered danger.

Mi Li was clear about Fawang's strength and was very happy. Although Chen Luo wanted to suppress her sister, he still cared about her very much.

Mifan was in Chen Luo's arms, watching Chen Luo play the game, pointing and commenting with the strength of a verbal master, and sighed upon hearing Mi Ling's words.

"Is it not good to hang out with Chen Luo? Alas, women are all fickle, capricious."

Fawang was also listless. Did they really have to go out on such a hot day?

Mi Ling looked at Fawang in surprise. This dog was following as a bodyguard?

This dog seemed extraordinary. It came back soon after following Zhang Zhen and Wang Xinwu down, did it solve them?

Mi Ling frowned. Although she was confident that she could carefully search in the residential area without any trouble.

But since Mi Li wanted to follow, she couldn't forcibly refuse.

At the same time, she felt much more comfortable. Mi Li hadn't betrayed her. She was still very concerned about her sister.

Mi Li also brought her equipment, a riot helmet, a thick leather jacket, and two electric batons that Chen Luo had given her.

Mi Li gave the helmet and leather jacket to Mi Ling; she only needed to follow behind her sister.

Watching the two people, one cat, and one dog leave, Chen Luo didn't follow.

He couldn't follow them at all times. Even if he wanted to protect her closely, she wouldn't want him to.

This Mi Ling wasn't easy to subdue.

Fine, let's fight it out and see who ends up on top.

Mi Ling didn't even leave the building unit, heading straight for the top floor, the ninth floor, via the stairs.

Mi Ling knocked on the door lightly. If there was no response, then she would give up. If she was sure that there were zombies locked inside, then she would break in.

No response meant that they might not be home, or they might be too scared, not understanding the situation, and not daring to respond or open the door.

If she forced the door open, causing the family to lose the door as a defense, the consequences might be killing others.

Mi Ling didn't want to save people, but she didn't want to harm people either.

No one responded at the first house. At the second house, upon hearing the knock, a zombie suddenly roared from inside, lunging at the door and constantly pounding on it.

Mi Ling smiled instead.

She didn't have a key, nor did she have lock-picking skills. She planned to forcibly break the door.
