A group of people, led by Wu Jin, headed to the 19th floor noisily.
The corridor fell silent.
Cheng Jikuan looked solemn: “I didn’t expect them to unite so quickly. We need to be more careful.”
Cheng Jili gritted her teeth and said: “Ning Ning, why were you holding me? Was that Jin threatening us just now?”
Ruan Ning said meaningfully: “He seems to be a ruthless person.”
Cheng Jili was immediately dissatisfied: “What kind of ruthless person? I think he is just a vulgar, shameless, lecherous, and shameless person!”
Ruan Ning was amused by her long words and put her arm around Cheng Jili’s shoulders: “Don’t be angry, don’t be angry. I think he won’t break in for the time being. Let’s practice our bows and arrows first. If he dares to rush to the 18th floor, we will send him home.”
“Yes, send him back to his hometown.” After Cheng Jili vented her anger, she looked at Cheng Jikuan: “Brother, then I will go to Ning Ning’s house.”
Cheng Jikuan was helpless: “Miss Ruan, please take care of my sister.”
Ruan Ning smiled and said: “Jili taught me archery, so I am the one to bother her. Besides, since we are so familiar with each other, Brother Cheng, just call me by my name.”
Cheng Jikuan nodded and said to Cheng Jili, “Go home for dinner tonight, you know?”
Cheng Jili’s eyes widened: “Brother, I’m not a child. Why are you still saying this?”
Ruan Ning understood what Cheng Jikuan meant. Now every household was short of food, so they definitely couldn’t treat guests to a meal like they did before.
She thought for a while and said: “Brother Cheng, I actually have something to trouble you with. I may go out at four or five o’clock tomorrow morning and need your help to lock the safety door.”
Cheng Jikuan was stunned: “Do you want to go out? How can you get out?”
Ruan Ning said: “I have a rubber boat. I want to go out and have a look tomorrow.”
“Go out and have a look?” Cheng Jili was shocked.
“This is too dangerous. Although there is a boat, the current condition should be very complicated. Ning Ning, you still have something to eat. What are you doing out there?”
Ruan Ning’s face was heavy: “We have food now, but what about in the near future? I always feel that the heavy rain will not stop so easily. I want to go out and try my luck before the food goes bad.”
Cheng Jili still felt that it was too dangerous. She wanted to persuade her again, but Cheng Jikuan stopped her and said, “Then, I’ll go with you.”
Cheng Jili’s eyes widened: “Brother!”
Rather than caring about Ruan Ning, she was more confused this time: “You didn’t help me persuade her, but why did you go crazy with her?”
Cheng Jikuan looked at his sister and said, “You actually know how much supplies we lack. Since Ruan Ning has a boat, we must give it a try.”
Cheng Jili gritted her teeth and said: “Then, I’ll go with you too!”
Cheng Jikuan shook his head: “No, those people in the villa area are forming a group. If they knew that no one was at our home, they would definitely rush in.”
“You have to stay here. If they try to break down the door and steal something, you know how to deal with it.”
Cheng Jili tensed up and said, “Then, you stay at home. Ning Ning and I will go out.”
Cheng Jikuan frowned: “Jili, the environment outside is complicated. I am stronger than you. Your obedience is the best protection for the three of us.”
Cheng Jili’s eyes suddenly turned red.
Ruan Ning didn’t expect that Cheng Jikuan would want to go out with her.
She indeed needed a companion. Like last time on the highway, if she didn’t have a place to hide, how could she cope alone?
It was just too dangerous to go out.
Ruan Ning hesitated and said: “Brother Cheng, why don’t you and Jili stay and guard the house? I guess there are very few people who dare to go out now, so there should be no danger.”
Cheng Jikuan looked at Ruan Ning: “I’m not going with you to take care of you, but to look for supplies together.”
Ruan Ning thought about it and it made sense. They were helping each other.
“Well, we’ll gather here before dawn tomorrow.”

Why is she going out right now? She has seen the gang by the highway and how that group in the hallway are escalating so why go out so early on in the apocalypse after mentioning she should have to for a while a few chapters back!
I think because right now is the ‘start’. Generally when people do bad things, its not a sudden decision, its something they think about for awhile. At least big bad things.
