[Quick Transmigration] Where is the Morality Chapter 128
Take It for Your Own Chapter 22 Original translation is from tenderflower's blog.
Ni An, Xia Ruyan, and Chen Xiaotian were assigned to a two-bedroom apartment in the Eastern District, while the three of Zhang Lu were assigned to the Western District. The accommodation conditions were relatively poor, with five or six people crowded in one room. For this Xia Ruyan was also helpless. She didn’t have enough points to exchange the power stimulant for them to use, but the person who assigned the house said that if they had an outstanding performance in the task in the future, they could apply for a larger house and let the other three friends move in at that time. For this, Ni An said he would consider it.
After they were settled, someone came to take them to the office of the ability team in the afternoon. Xia Ruyan carefully told Chen Xiaotian to stay in the house and not go out casually and then went out with Ni An.
The captain of the ability team was a man about 30 years old. He looked a little arrogant and unruly. He was tall and strong and was quite masculine. When he saw the two of them coming, he strode up to shake Ni An’s hand twice, and said enthusiastically: “You are Xiao Ni! Hello, hello, my name is Lei Shuhai. I’m the captain of the ability team. I heard you have the lightning ability. Here we have no such talent yet. Welcome!”
He only talked to Ni An and didn’t even look at Xia Ruyan. He stared at Ni An with sincere appreciation. After a few words, he pressed him on the chair and said he wanted to invite him to tea. Ni An didn’t sit down, but gently broke free from him, and took Xia Ruyan to his side as he said to him: “This is my girlfriend, Xia Ruyan, water ability.”
When Lei Shuhai saw Xia Ruyan, the expression on his face faded. He casually glanced at her and said: “The water ability is better to go to the base to supply water. Our team’s usual mission is very dangerous and unsuitable for you.”
His careless eyes made Xia Ruyan very uncomfortable. She was about to speak, but Ni An spoke first: “She’s very strong and can work with me.”
Hearing Ni An’s words, Lei Shuhai’s face was originally disdainful, but he couldn’t speak sarcastically because of Ni An’s face. After thinking about it for a while, he said: “Let’s do this, I will arrange a team member to fight with you... What’s your name? Oh, your last name is Xia, right? Well, if you can fight to a tie, I’ll accept you into the team. How about it?”
Xia Ruyan agreed without hesitation. A trace of contempt flashed past Lei Shuhai’s eyes then he dropped a sentence “Come with me.” He turned and walked out.
There was an open space outside the office building of the ability team. There were usually some people with abilities who trained their physical strength here. Lei Shuhai walked out casually and shouted to someone: “You there, Xu something? Come and fight with her.”
The person he was referring to ran towards this side. As she got closer and closer, her pace couldn’t help but slow down. Both Xia Ruyan and her face showed surprise. The person walked up to Xia Ruyan and called her hesitantly: “...Ruyan?”
As she called out, Xia Ruyan’s face sank. She looked at her coldly and spit out a few words from her mouth: “Xu Lining.”
“Oh, you two still know each other?” Lei Shuhai laughed playfully and said to Xu Lining, “You’re not allowed to let water out even if you know her or your wages will be deducted.”
Xu Lining smiled reluctantly and said to Xia Ruyan: “Ruyan, I-I didn’t expect you to come here too...”
Xia Ruyan actually wanted to slap her on the spot, but she held it back after all. She lowered her eyes and smiled self-deprecatingly: “Yes, I didn’t expect to be alive to meet you.”
Perceiving the strangeness between the two of them, Ni An doubtfully squeezed Xia Ruyan’s hand. Xu Lining’s expression changed when she saw their intimate behavior. She couldn’t help exclaiming: “Ruyan, you and him are...”
Xia Ruyan held Ni An’s hand back, looked at Xu Lining, and said calmly: “He is my boyfriend.”
“Boyfriend? Are you cheating?”
Xu Lining shouted loudly. Matching her exaggerated expression, attracting all the people around to look towards this side, and even Lei Shuhai’s gaze at Xia Ruyan was strange.
Ni An became unhappy and took Xia Ruyan into his arms as he swore sovereignty: “She is my girlfriend.”
The expression on Xu Lining’s face was extremely strange as if she was trying her best to restrain something. She covered her mouth and said to Ni An. “This young brother may not know. Ruyan had a boyfriend before. Her boyfriend is on our team. Wait for me to call him...”
Before Xu Lining turned around, another surprised voice came from behind: “Ruyan!?”
A tall and thin man strode towards Xia Ruyan and brushed past Xu Lining. He looked at Xia Ruyan excitedly, reaching out to grab her, but Ni An turned sideways to avoid him.
“Who are you?”
Noting the existence of Ni An, the man’s eyes suddenly showed a sense of vigilance. Xia Ruyan patted Ni An’s hand lightly, beckoning him to be calm, and then looked at the man who appeared suddenly: “Li Wentao, it’s been a long time since I saw you.”
Li Wentao showed excitement again when he heard Xia Ruyan calling him. He looked at Xia Ruyan incredibly: “Ruyan, I thought you... thought you... you have something...”
Xia Ruyan took Ni An’s arm, leaned her head on his shoulder, and smiled slightly: “Ni An saved me.”
Ni An immediately took the opportunity to hug Xia Ruyan tighter, and looked at Li Wentao with contempt and disdain: “Xiao Yan, is he the one who left you sick by the roadside?”
Xia Ruyan nodded: “Yes, it was him.”
“Ruyan, I didn’t... I couldn’t do anything at that time. Later, I wanted to return to find you, but we ran into trouble again...” Li Wentao stretched out anxiously to catch Xia Ruyan, but Ni An waved him away.
Ni An’s hit was hard. Li Wentao made a “hiss” and suddenly felt like his entire wrist was numb. The man looked at him coldly: “Don’t touch my woman.”
Li Wentao was stunned by Ni An’s sight with cold sweat on his back. His instinct told him that this man was not easy to mess with, but he still gritted his teeth and stared at Xia Ruyan: “Ruyan, if I remember correctly, we have not broken up yet!”
Hearing this from him Xia Ruyan only thought the man was both disgusting and ridiculous. She raised her voice and shouted at him: “Li Wentao, since you left me with a high fever and half unconscious on the roadside, we are no longer boyfriend and girlfriend. Although I didn’t have the strength to move at that time, I heard what you and Xu Lining said clearly. I was cumbersome and would drag you down, so I was abandoned on the roadside. If Ni An hadn’t passed by and saved me, I would have been eaten by zombies. Now, what right do you have to be my boyfriend?”
Her words were clear and loud as if she slapped Li Wentao’s face severely, and the eyes of everyone around them immediately changed. Lei Shuhai, who had previously suspected Xia Ruyan, also looked at Li Wentao contemptuously at this time. Abandoning his seriously ill girlfriend could be said to be the last resort for self-protection in the last days, but how shameless was it to say that they had not broken up after the event?
Li Wentao’s face immediately burned up. He was stiff in place and still hem and haw wanting to say something. Xia Ruyan didn’t want to listen anymore. She turned her head and said to Lei Shuhai: “Captain, don’t you want me to fight with Xu Lining? Let’s start then.”
