Chapter 71: Arrangements

Bo Yiliang's eyes were cold as he looked at the three bystanders.

Holding Wen Xiaoxiao's delicate and boneless hand in his large palm, he led her downstairs.

He cast a glance at Wen Xiao and his friends, choosing to ignore them.

Did he have no self-respect? To think he'd be teased by his own son like this. If it weren't for his resemblance, he'd mistake the child for his younger brother's offspring.

With a personality as mischievous as Bo Yilong's, it was quite hard to deal with.

...

Seated on the sofa, Bo Yilong rubbed his nose and let out a loud sneeze, audible throughout the living room.

Bo's mother looked at her younger son with concern. "Yilong, are you catching a cold?"

"No, Mom, it's definitely my brother missing me," Bo Yilong reassured his mother with a touch of narcissism.

Bo's mother sighed, saying, "You know, it's been so long, but your brother still hasn't returned. I'm worried that something might have happened."

She had been waiting for so long, and her granddaughter was yet to come back. Furthermore, with father and son staying together, they didn't even keep her company. It was a tough situation.

"Mom, look at the heavy rain outside. Can they drive in this weather? It's so dangerous," Bo Yilong pointed outside.

Bo's mother followed his gaze and saw the pouring rain.

She couldn't help but feel anxious.

Seeing his mother like this, Bo Yilong shook his head helplessly.

...

After Wen Xiaoxiao and the others finished their meal, they disembarked from the RV and headed to the warehouse.

The survivors in the warehouse gazed at Wen Xiaoxiao hopefully.

Most of the elderly were gentle; after all, they were getting older. For them, having a safe place to stay and being able to eat a full meal were sufficient.

There were also around twenty children who looked at Wen Ruihan with envy.

They had noticed the transformation in his appearance. Although they were previously dressed in worn-out clothes, now they were clad in warm and clean attire. When they looked at Wen Xiaoxiao, their eyes were filled with expectation.

Wen Xiaoxiao frowned slightly, not saying anything. Her feelings toward these children were neither good nor bad. But seeing them in their tattered clothes stirred something within her—after all, they appeared so young.

Wen Xiaoxiao turned to Wu Xiaoyi and said, "Brother Wu, it's raining heavily outside. We can't go anywhere right now. Stay here for a while, and once the rain stops, I'll take you to a safe place."

The survivors present wore smiles upon hearing this, their faces filled with excitement.

They all sat up from the ground, looking at Wen Xiaoxiao.

Although this place was temporarily safe, the warehouse was damp and exuded a musty smell. Additionally, it was quite chilly.

Wen Xiaoxiao had initially considered allowing the children to stay in the RV, but she realized it would be impractical given their numbers. Moreover, the kids would likely be noisy and troublesome, causing her irritation. So, she had no choice but to let them stay in the warehouse for the time being.
