Chapter 77 (2/2)

Bai Jing was too lazy to argue with him. Discovering that he was still in the car, he instantly realized that Xiao Sa had been in the car the whole time too. It must have been difficult for Xiao Sa to have kept watch this entire time. His heart warmed, and his tone unconsciously turned soft. ”What's the situation outside like now?”

Xiao Sa nodded and spoke about the events that had occurred recently while his hand continued to take as much advantage as it could. He quietly stretched his hand under Bai Jing's clothes and touched the soft skin underneath… His body heated up; G.o.d knew how long he'd been abstinent for. Even if he couldn't eat it now, it was still good if he could touch for a bit.

“The army has settled down and been incorporated into the escort and patrol teams. Recently, many people have come to join us. Building construction and repairs have now officially started, and there are a lot of people in the outer city… Hiss…”

It hurt! Xiao Sa complained internally and sucked in a breath. Even though Bai Jing's skin was fine and his flesh tender, his hand was still quite strong. Although his pinch right was not much more painful than scratching an itch, Xiao Sa believed that if he didn't start cooperating now, an embarra.s.sed Bai Jing would be much harder to cater to.

Bai Jing's cheeks were flushed as he narrowed his eyes at Xiao Sa. He ignored the thudding of his heart and glared at him to see if he would dare to continue misbehaving.

Xiao Sa pouted and awkwardly retrieved his hand. It wasn't as though he didn't know that Little Jing had also been turned on right now. But, he looked at their surroundings and agreed - the car was indeed not a good place for this. Forget it, he could let Little Jing off temporarily. Although he had already said that many times, he firmly believed that he would be able to eat Little Jing next time. In other words, he had the same thought last time.

Bai Jing glared at Xiao Sa, then arrogantly turned his head away and opened the car door. He forced his face to show a calm expression even though he was still flushed, his heart pounding in his chest. He definitely could not let Xiao Sa know that he really wanted to do it just now, too! When facing the person he liked, he wasn't a saint. How could he not be turned on? While he was still torn about who would top, he felt that his chances of winning were not high, so he decided to temporarily drag it on for now!

After getting out of the car, Bai Jing glanced around and found that the parking lot was much larger than it had been. There were more than a dozen soldiers stationed at the entrance to the base where registration took place.

Xiao Sa followed closely behind him. When he saw Bai Jing's doubtful gaze, his lips curved upward slightly. “Rental business.”

Bai Jing was puzzled and frowned. What did that mean?

Xiao Sa chuckled quietly. In fact, he had also just learned about this matter and had felt some amazement too. Businessmen were really different. For Leng Han to have come up with an idea like this, it was no wonder he was known as a profiteer. He laughed and said, “If the teams that are going out to collect materials put down a deposit, they can drive a car out. When they return, they will be charged according to the number of days they were gone. If an accident occurs, or they lose the car, then their deposit materials will be kept. Oh, by the way, the trading market is open now. Would you like to go and have a look at it?”

Bai Jing's eyes brightened. Trading market?

Xiao Sa smiled and nodded. He ignored the reactions of the people around them and grabbed Bai Jing's hand as they walked forward. When they reached the entrance, the guards uniformly gave him a salute. Xiao Sa returned it, and Bai Jing's mouth dropped open in shock 囧. He discovered that Xiao Sa had really become addicted to being an army leader. But, it was very awe-inspiring, and he liked it a lot.

Everything was flouris.h.i.+ng inside the base. Bai Jing sighed in his heart. He had been away for ten short days and unexpectedly the base already had so many more people. They encountered a patrol team on the way, and seeing them all salute, Bai Jing began to wonder internally. He remembered that this small patrol team had been filled with familiar people. However, now they were all acting so formal, it made him also turn solemn.

Xiao Sa smiled as he explained that the original patrol team felt ashamed. People would learn from the people they followed, and after working with regular soldiers, they found it too disgraceful to be so careless and sloppy. It was easier for Chen Dawei's group as they had all been soldiers before, but it was the little gangsters that were pitiful. It was incredibly difficult for Yang Wenhua and his subordinates, but Xiao Sa believed that they would adapt. He very much enjoyed the base's current atmosphere. It was strict and standardized, and had really become a regulated ent.i.ty.

By the time they arrived at the trading market, many people had already gathered there. The hall was very large and was categorized like a shopping mall. There were many stalls, and although it hadn't been completely rented out, the number of traders wasn't small. There were all kinds of goods available - not only rice and supplies, but gold, jade, antique calligraphy, and paintings as well as all kinds of items were laid out in the open. Things that could not be purchased with mere money before the apocalypse were now up for trade, and Bai Jing was really dazzled by the scene before his eyes.

Xiao Sa pointed to the contrasting floor patterns of both sides. “This side is rented out to long-term sellers, while this side is for temporary merchants. Two days ago I also bought two pieces of ancient jade from there. I heard it was handed down through many generations. I'll give it to you when we get back.”

Bai Jing's lips curved. He was very satisfied with how Xiao Sa kept him in his heart. He raised his head to look around and found that while the fixed shops were large, the business was better in the temporary merchant's side.
