After putting all the protective clothing into the space, Chen Yuanyuan put the tires and debris used for cover-up back into the warehouse, opened the roller shutter and walked out of the warehouse.
The sunshine at noon in Los Angeles was particularly dazzling. Although the temperature was not high, Chen Yuanyuan felt a little sweaty after walking in the sun for five minutes.
After returning to the carriage, Chen Yuanyuan went to a Chinese restaurant and bought some takeout back to Bai Ziqian's home. Although the Chinese restaurant in the United States only had fried rice, fried noodles and some fried food, it was still a taste of hometown for the frightened He Yuehua.
After returning to the bungalow, Chen Yuanyuan thought about it in the car, and then took a box of cooked dumplings in the space. She made a lot of dumplings at He Yuehua's house last time, so that she could taste the taste of grandma and hope to cheer up.
He Yuehua had already recovered from a day's sleep, but Bai Ziqian, who had taken care of He Yuehua for the whole night, had panda eyes under his eyes.
The three opened the takeout in the living room. He Yuehua's eyes lit up when she saw the familiar Chinese food. Bai Ziqian, who has lived in the United States for a long time, rarely eats Chinese food except for the occasional return to Xiangcheng.
"Huahua, this is your favorite dumpling, try it quickly." Chen Yuanyuan put a round and fat dumpling into He Yuehua's bowl.
"This is... Yuanyuan, thank you!" He Yuehua tasted the dumplings made by her grandma with one bite.
"Eat quickly, keep yourself up, we have to go shopping." Chen Yuanyuan said with a smile.
"This dumpling is so delicious. Which store sells it?" Bai Ziqian ate a dumpling. It was plump and juicy. It was much more delicious than the quick-frozen dumplings in the supermarket, so he immediately asked Chen Yuanyuan.
"This...is not for sale to outsiders. I just saw the boss eating dumplings and shamelessly asked for a box." Chen Yuanyuan said nonsensically.
After the three of them ate all the food on the table, Chen Yuanyuan informed them about Shen Yichen's coming to the United States.
"Yi Chen should come over to see us tonight. I may need to borrow your car to pick him up tonight." Chen Yuanyuan said.
"We are obviously here to see you!" He Yuehua said with a smile.
"Uh... I'm going out in the afternoon. Do you want to use the car?" Chen Yuanyuan immediately changed the subject.
"We'll take a rest at home. You can use it. Brother Chen, will he stay here at night? I'll tidy up the guest room." Bai Ziqian said.
"This is too disturbing to you, so let him stay in the hotel..."
"It's okay, it's okay. Huahua and I can share a room. It's so dangerous to live outside, don't you think?" Bai Ziqian looked at He Yuehua.
"Yes, you can just sleep on the floor." He Yuehua gave Bai Ziqian a slap in the face, and then said to Chen Yuanyuan:
"Let him live here. It will be convenient for us to hang out together in the next few days."
Chen Yuanyuan felt happy when she heard that He Yuehua was willing to go out to play, so she asked Bai Ziqian to pack up the guest room and take Shen Yichen to Bai Ziqian's house to spend the night.
After the three of them put away the food on the table, Chen Yuanyuan went back to the room to take a nap.
After waking up from her nap, Chen Yuanyuan sent a message to Shen Yichen, telling him that she would pick him up at the airport and ask him to contact her after he got off the plane.
[Chen: Okay, I’ll get off the plane around 10:30 in the United States. 】
[Circle plus 100 million points: How do you send messages on the plane? 】
[Chen: There is WIFI on the flight, but it’s just a bit stuck. 】
The last flight Chen Yuanyuan took did not have Internet access, so she wanted to book a flight with WiFi when she returned. Thinking that Bai Ziqian had just asked Shen Yichen to come and live together in the bungalow, he continued to ask Shen Yichen:
[Circle plus 100 million points: Have you booked a hotel? 】
[Chen: Not yet. I left in such a hurry. I can just find someone later. 】
[Circle plus 100 million points: You can live with us at Bai Ziqian’s house. There is also a guest room. 】
[Chen: Will it disturb him? 】
[The circle adds 100 million dots: It’s okay, come and be a light bulb with me. 】
[Chen: Is it possible that we can also make them shine? 】
[Circle with 100 million dots: Don’t be so floating in the sky (sweating)]
After ending the conversation with Shen Yichen speechlessly, Chen Yuanyuan walked to the living room and saw the two of them baking a cake together, so she told them that the light bulb was getting ready to go out.
"Be careful when you go out!" He Yuehua said.
"You guys too, please stay safe at home!" Chen Yuanyuan emphasized the word "safety" in particular. He Yuehua was stunned for a moment and understood what Chen Yuanyuan meant, and pretended to rush over and beat Chen Yuanyuan.
Chen Yuanyuan quickly slipped out and drove to a nearby agricultural market.
Arriving at an open-air farmer's market in a nearby village, Chen Yuanyuan found a remote place to park, got out of the car and went shopping.
In a country where the United States only pursues money and freedom, there are very few surveillances on the street, let alone a remote country road, so Chen Yuanyuan decided to park the car here after a short observation.
In addition to some local seasonal crops, there are also vendors selling various fruit trees.
Although it is estimated that it will take a year and a half to produce fruit, the fruit seedlings are larger and stronger than those purchased online.
After Chen Yuanyuan visited several stores, she bought saplings of Sunkist oranges, blueberries, Aifei apples, cranberries and Big Mac bananas.
After Chen Yuanyuan asked the vendor to deliver all the saplings to the parking place for her, Chen Yuanyuan quickly took the saplings back to the space while there was no one around.
After handling the saplings, Chen Yuanyuan saw many potted plants. In addition to some small fruits, there were also different types of vanilla plants.
After Chen Yuanyuan bought several pots of mint, basil, thyme and other commonly used herbs, when she was about to leave, a man with a sallow complexion patted Chen Yuanyuan on the shoulder.
"Beauty, do you want to buy something good?" the thin man asked.
"What good stuff?" Chen Yuanyuan asked, taking two steps back to keep her distance.
"Happy things." The thin man made a smoking gesture.
"No need." Chen Yuanyuan immediately realized that this person was a drug addict and probably wanted to sell drugs.
Although some drugs can be used as medicine in appropriate amounts, Chen Yuanyuan hates people who abuse drugs, and there is no shortage of anesthetic needles and various types of drugs in the space, so there is no need to use drugs as a substitute.
In addition to harming herself and those around her, Chen Yuanyuan is well aware of how many anti-drug police officers in China are killed by drugs every year. She will never be infected with drugs in her previous life, this life, or the next life.
"Hey, wait, we have finished products, seedlings, and seeds, let's take a look..." The thin man saw Chen Yuanyuan turn around and leave, thinking that she was afraid of illegal planting, and was still shouting behind her to solicit business.
Although there are legal drug laws in Los Angeles, the sale and cultivation of it is also illegal.
However, Chen Yuanyuan did not have the time to report him for the harm caused to other countries. Anyway, the first batch of people to die after the apocalypse would be people whose bodies were hollowed out by drugs.
After returning to the car, Chen Yuanyuan immediately took out disinfectant alcohol and disinfected the shoulder of the thin man who had just been raped. In addition to being disgusted with this kind of drug dealer, Chen Yuanyuan also showed naked discrimination.
