Chapter 86 -86: Not Afraid of Him Selling Her

Upon entering Jie Chen’s room, he locked the door behind him with a backward flick of his hand.

Xiang Ying’s eyebrows slightly raised as she sat down beside the bed, crossing her slender legs.

“Jie Jianjun, I am not a chaste lady immune to distractions, but right now I’m not in the mood for that.”

Jie Chen’s movements in his hands paused, turning his head to give her a cold glance.

“What on earth is going on in your head? Pass me that wooden stick beside you.”

Xiang Ying was taken aback but complied, then saw Jie Chen prop the wooden stick diagonally behind the door.

His vigilant demeanor led Xiang Ying to feel slightly puzzled.

“Who are you guarding against?”

“You are the only one on this ship who can treat the plague. Naturally, I am guarding against those who might harm you.”

Darkness shadowed Xiang Ying’s phoenix eyes as she leaned on an armrest with folded arms and smile lightly: “But this is your team, how could there be someone harboring such malevolent thoughts?”

“Besides, unless someone stopping me no longer wishes to live, they too are on this ship. Aren’t they afraid of catching the plague as well?”

Jie Chen blocked the doorway, gave it a few pushes, and upon finding it very secure, dusted off the dirt from his hands.

The moonlight of the night, along with the shimmering water outside the window, cast a flickering shadow in the room.

Jie Chen stood amidst such shadows, looking at her.

“Never fully trust everyone, no matter the situation.”

“Does that include you?”

Jie Chen withdrew his chilly gaze, took a quilt from the cupboard, and laid it on the ground.

He said coldly, “I’m not in the mood to argue with you, rest up. We have to inspect those patients tomorrow.”

Xiang Ying simply took the towel Jie Chen had prepared, wiped herself off, and then lay down on his bed.

She lay on her side, propping her head with one hand, and watched Jie Chen with a faint smile on her red lips.

“No matter what you say, I for one am exceptionally at ease with you.”

Having said that, Xiang Ying turned over, turned her back to him, and pulled up the quilt.

Not long after, the sound of her even breathing really did come from her side.

Caught off guard, Jie Chen was somewhat startled.

This woman said she trusted him, and it turned out to be true.

She fell asleep so quickly, without fear that he might sell her out.

Somehow, Jie Chen felt a faint pleasure at being trusted and relied upon like this.

Before he could figure out where this pleasant feeling came from, Xiang Ying’s voice suddenly sounded again in the darkness: “But you should be careful of me, I might sleepwalk, and likely end up crawling into your blanket in the middle of the night.”

Jie Chen’s face turned ashen instantly: “Get to sleep! Stop talking!”

Xiang Ying uttered an ‘oh’, and then there was silence.

Jie Chen wrapped the quilt tightly around himself, frowning deeply as he closed his eyes to rest.

He was irritated inside.

He shouldn’t have been moved by Xiang Ying’s few words; at her core, she was a woman intoxicated by lust!

The next day, before dawn, Xiang Ying was already up.

She lay flat without moving, directly enjoying breakfast in her space.

A cup of warm sweet milk, a sandwich prepared by the cooking robot.

After eating, Xiang Ying sat up.

Jie Chen went out to get her some dry bread, but Xiang Ying shook her head directly: “I’m not hungry, some water is enough for me.”

“Suit yourself, but without food, you won’t last long.” Jie Chen said, but he still kept the dry bread for her.

The two left the cabin, Jie Chen to check on last night’s situation in the bilge, Xiang Ying to find the Fire Head Army.

They were responsible for boiling water, bringing it to each compartment.

Xiang Ying took advantage when they were not paying attention, replacing all the water in the pot with filtered clean water from her space.

She then moved to the cabin of the children, having the soldier on guard open the door.

Upon seeing Xiang Ying at the door, the three children were quite happy, Xiang Xiuxiu almost threw herself into Xiang Ying’s arms.

Xiang Ying hastily stopped her, taking out breakfast packages prepared for them from her sleeve, handing them to Tao Xue.

“From now on, I will be delivering your food. You all need to be good, stay away from the door, got it?”

“”

The three little ones looked at her pitifully, and in the end, it was Xiang Yuanshuo’s serious little face that nodded gravely, “Understood.”

Xiang Ying ordered the soldiers to lock the door. Inside, Tao Xue opened the bundle and exclaimed quietly in surprise.

“The elder princess actually prepared so much food for us?”

It was even more abundant than the breakfast they had before!

Fifteen small meat buns, five eggs, and three water bags filled with sweet soy milk.

The food that Xiang Ying had prepared for Xiang Li and the others in their room was also like this.

She couldn’t take care of the others.

Separated by the door, Xiang Li anxiously worried about her, “Ayin, when did you learn medical skills? Don’t overdo it!”

He was terribly afraid that his sister took on the task to create better living conditions by bluffing through it.

Xiang Li spoke gravely, “The plague is no trivial matter. How can you put yourself in danger?”

Yet Xiang Ying’s laughter came from outside the door.

“Brother, rest assured. If I were not truly capable, why would I take on such a task? All you need to worry about is taking care of yourself.”

Suddenly.

Skinny Monkey ran over, “Sister-in-law, it’s terrible, the patients at the bottom of the ship are in trouble. Go check on them now!”

Xiang Ying turned and left, Xiang Li heard his sister’s hurried footsteps leave, and he called out worriedly, “Ayin! Be sure to look out for your own safety!”

Upon reaching the bottom of the ship, the door had already been opened.

From inside came the Military Doctor’s anxious voice, “I told you, the plague isn’t something that can be easily cured.”

“Military Supervisor, don’t hesitate any longer. The priority now is to burn these patients immediately to prevent any further disaster!”

Xiang Ying entered, and Jie Chen turned his head with a grave tone, “Come look at these people.”

She looked around and saw all the prisoners infected with the plague had different levels of sores bursting and bleeding.

It looked like their condition had worsened; everyone was unconscious.

Xiang Ying stepped forward to take the pulse of Liu Taipin.

Jie Chen wanted to stop her but it was too late. He saw Xiang Ying disregard the filth and place her hand on Liu Taipin’s pulse.

The Military Doctor’s eyes widened, and the scar face and Skinny Monkey all had solemn expressions.

“How is it?”

“It’s an adverse reaction to the medicine.” She let out a sigh of relief.

The medicine not being ineffective was good news.

Xiang Ying had seen such a situation during the apocalypse.

It was an adverse reaction of the human body to a vaccine, often causing high fevers or the body breaking out in sores and other detoxifying reactions.

Xiang Ying assuredly said, “In two to three days, such symptoms should subside.”

The Military Doctor grabbed his head, feeling his scalp tingle.

“Wait another two to three days? I’m telling you, Princess Xiang Ying, don’t play us for fools. If things go wrong, we all might end up dead.”

“If you’re scared, just hide and keep quiet.”

The Military Doctor was rebuffed by her and was at a loss for words.

He too wanted to retreat, but Jie Chen wouldn’t allow it.

Seeing Xiang Ying’s resolute attitude, after a brief deliberation, Jie Chen nodded, “Then continue to treat the others according to your method.”

“The number of people infected yesterday has increased by three. I’ve already sent people to take them to the treatment room.”

Xiang Ying nodded, “Military Doctor, take all the herbs you brought to the treatment room.”

She needed to prepare some neutralizing prescriptions to lessen the severity of the sores and bleeding on these people.

The Military Doctor wanted to refuse, but seeing that even Jie Chen sided with her, he could only agree weakly with a nod.

Using the same method, Xiang Ying treated the three new patients in the treatment room and had them sent back to the bottom of the ship.

The Military Doctor brought some medicine, Xiang Ying sorted them out, picked a few that could be used, and had the Military Doctor turn them into medicine bags to distribute to each room.

Just then, two signal fireworks crackled in the azure sky.

Xiang Ying walked to the doorway and frowned at the signals coming from the second ship, followed by the third ship, the fourth ship… one after another, releasing distress flares.

The Military Doctor stood next to her, his lips starting to quiver.

“It’s over, thoroughly over. The people on the following ships have been infected with the plague too!”
