NOVEL WEB Chapter 7: 007 I just found my sister
Hua Mi: ???
She couldn't understand why, despite checking and rechecking the control panel, her cashier interface still showed only 7 yuan?
After pondering for a long time, she couldn't figure out why, when suddenly she heard someone calling her from behind.
Hua Mi turned around, and to her surprise, it was Fang Xin?
At this time, Fang Xin, compared to the one from the apocalypse who relied on Hua Mi to survive, seemed much younger and more beautiful.
She wore a pink woolen coat with a rhinestone brooch pinned on the collar and her long hair styled into big waves, walking over with a jubilant expression,
"Ah, sis, you really had me worried. I just knew I'd find you here."
The collapsed neighborhoods and factories of Xiang City had all their survivors relocated here.
These past few days saw all sorts of people come here, some to find relatives, others to conduct interviews.
So, Fang Xin directly entered this medical rescue center.
The expression on Hua Mi's face instantly turned icy,
"What are you doing here?"
She hadn't sought out Fang Xin, yet Fang Xin had the audacity to come to her. Was she seeking death?
Fang Xin, completely oblivious to the impending danger, took Hua Mi's hand with her freshly manicured ones, putting on a pitiful face,
"Sis, you hung up on me last time, and I couldn't get through to you no matter how many times I called. Don't be like that, aren't we good sisters?"
"How much did our family's ancestral home sell for? Sis, just tell me."
"Sis, about what I mentioned last time, I said I wanted to buy an apartment in Xiang City, just buy it for me."
Her tone was coquettish, as though by adopting such an attitude, no matter how unreasonable her requests were, Hua Mi would agree.
Hua Mi studied Fang Xin carefully.
She was pretty and petite, the type of woman that men typically adore when she acts coquettishly.
But Hua Mi saw something ugly in her.
"Ha."
Hua Mi laughed sarcastically at herself. She couldn't understand was her former self mentally disabled or blind? How could she not see the thick stench of malice emanating from Fang Xin's soul?
Seeing Fang Xin stunned, Hua Mi asked:
"What do you mean 'our family's ancestral home'? Your last name is Fang, mine is Hua. What does my Hua Family's ancestral home have to do with you? Why should I buy you a house?"
That was really strange indeed, what kind of reasoning was that for Fang Xin?
Fang Xin also thought Hua Mi was being strange. From childhood, she had lived off what belonged to Hua Mi, worn what was Hua Mi's, and even took half of the scholarships Hua Mi received. Wasn't that natural?
Why would the money from selling the ancestral home not be used to buy her a house?
Fang Xin pouted,
"Hmph, sis, I'm going to get mad at you for talking like that. How can you say such things? From childhood each time..."
"It's precisely because I have been so foolish each time, that I've ended up raising a lazy, parasitic leech like you. Over all these years, how much money have you taken from me? Is it enough to buy a house? You tell me!"
Hua Mi abruptly cut off Fang Xin's words, flinging her hand away. She looked around; their argument had already attracted the attention of the garrison team.
Because there were thousands of survivors here, the garrison team was present to maintain order and stabilize the situation.
Hua Mi didn't want to kill someone over stockpiling supplies, so she could only raise an eyebrow and look at Fang Xin,
"Get out of my sight, or next time, you won't be able to return in one piece."
She always had to make Fang Xin pay back what she owed, whether with money or any part of her body.
However, Fang Xin did not feel the murderous intent emanating from Hua Mi, as people living in peaceful times rarely possess such wild instincts.
She just cried and stepped forward, trying to grab Hua Mi's hand.
"Sister, don't be like this, sister..."
Hua Mi turned around and walked away, leaving Fang Xin with an unforgiving view of the back of her head.
Just as Fang Xin was about to follow, Hua Mi suddenly spun around, her lips pursed, pointing at Fang Xin with a delicate, fair finger.
The gesture was filled with a hunting intent.
Dare Fang Xin to take one more step!
Even Fang Xin, dull as she was, could sense the hunting posture. At this moment, she knew best to refrain from provoking Hua Mi further.
Otherwise, the outcome would be unsightly.
With that, Fang Xin stomped her foot and remained where she was.
After Hua Mi climbed into the truck and drove away, Fang Xin, left behind, her tear-stained face suddenly turned fierce.
She watched the truck disappearing into the distance resentfully and took out her phone, dialed Qin Ziran's number, and put on a sweet voice,
"Brother Ziran, I just found my sister, but she was so fierce and said she will never forgive you. She, she probably doesn't want to see you right now."
"Plus, she got ahold of a huge truck and drove it away, it probably isn't hers. Could she be making some bad friends out there?"
"Brother Ziran, I'm really worried about sister."
Fang Xin was hinting to Qin Ziran that Hua Mi was driving a large truck, usually driven by men.
So, Hua Mi might have met some wild man outside, she wasn't as good as Qin Ziran imagined.
But Qin Ziran did not catch the hints in Fang Xin's words.
He completely overlooked the fact that Hua Mi was driving a large truck.
On the other end of the phone, Qin Ziran was silent for a long while and then spoke with deep agony,
"Is she in the temporary rescue center? I'll come to find her now."
He paused, as if making up his mind,
"Fang Xin, I appreciate your company during this time, but I think we should not continue any further."
He truly liked Hua Mi and was sincerely waiting to marry her.
However, throughout the long time he and Hua Mi were together, she never allowed him to touch her. At this time, Fang Xin, who resembled Hua Mi a bit, approached him actively, showing affection often, and even made some upfront invitations.
Qin Ziran was a young man full of vigor and couldn't hold back... and then they collided for the first time.
Regretting deeply after their first encounter, Fang Xin assured him she didn't mind and that she liked him, having secretly adored him for a long time.
Which man in the world could resist such temptation?
Thus followed a second time, a third, and countless more.
Until his affair was discovered by Hua Mi.
Now Hua Mi wanted to break up with Qin Ziran.
Of course, he was unwilling, so he again tried to break up with Fang Xin,
"You know, Fang Xin, you're also Ah Mi's sister, and honestly, I've always seen you as a sister."
