Apocalyptic Flood: Sexy Beauty Neighbor's Midnight Plea for Food Chapter 919 - 344: Hidden Motives
"What!?" Shen Hongi’s face went pale upon hearing this.
Li Hanzhong looked even more terrified and quickly asked, "Looking for ?... Uh, looking for Li Hanzhong?"
He reacted instantly, not daring to admit he was Li Hanzhong before understanding the situation.
Qu Lingling quickly said, "Aren’t you Li Hanzhong?"
Li Hanzhong didn’t dare to answer and instead asked, "What do they want with Li Hanzhong?"
Qu Lingling hurriedly said, "I heard people outside say there’s a woman on that ship, claiming to be Professor Ding Yan from the Linjiang University School of Engineering, saying she’s looking for Li Hanzhong, but nothing more was ntioned."
"But I was near the corridor just now and heard clearly that this ship is the freighter from Linjiang University. These people say they’re from Yangshan Shelter, here to rescue stranded water survivors."
"But Sister Qiu won’t let these people co up, maybe she’s wary of them."
"Uncle Li, you’re really not Li Hanzhong?"
"Sister Qiu is now having people look for you everywhere, saying there’s a reward of two sweet potatoes if they find you."
Qu Lingling ntioned the flood and couldn’t help but swallow, a little drool escaping her mouth.
Upon hearing these words, a thought stirred in Li Hanzhong’s heart.
He had a strong impression of Professor Ding Yan from the School of Engineering.
It wasn’t because Xiaoding was good-looking, but because her coming to Linjiang University and quickly being made a professor had a lot to do with her father.
And Li Hanzhong’s position in the academic world was unparalleled, so he naturally knew Ding Yan’s father well and they had nurous interactions.
Hearing that Ding Yan was looking for him made his heart beat faster.
He had no grudge against Xiaoding and even had a connection with her father before the great flood.
Was Xiaoding here specifically to rescue him?
He imdiately dismissed this thought.
Although he had so ties with Ding Yan’s father before the apocalypse, he hadn’t t Xiaoding, a junior, many tis.
Though Ding Yan had co to his house for a al and visited him.
But that was all there was to their relationship.
Would such a small connection really warrant her coming all this way for a special rescue?
Li Hanzhong was self-aware enough to know better.
So why was she looking for him?
What could he offer that would attract her?
With the quick thinking from his Super Brain, he imdiately understood.
"It’s my knowledge in the field of shipbuilding!"
"She doesn’t know I’ve awakened the Super Brain superpower; the only thing about that could attract her was my scientific knowledge in shipbuilding."
"Since she ca on Linjiang University’s freighter, she certainly needs an expert in shipbuilding to help repair the ship, or even build new ones."
"This isn’t a bad thing!"
Understand this, Li Hanzhong suddenly felt delighted.
He looked up at Qu Lingling, about to say he was Li Hanzhong.
Suddenly, a chill ran through him as he rembered Miss Qiu!
"Since when was Miss Qiu so eager to help others?"
"Is she really trying to help by making such a big fuss to find for Ding Yan?"
Li Hanzhong hesitated slightly and then said calmly, "Xiaoqu, you really misunderstood. Uncle Li, I’m really not Li Hanzhong."
Qu Lingling looked a bit disappointed and said, "Uncle Li, it would be great if you were Li Hanzhong. Maybe you could go with them and live a better life, and Granny Shen’s arthritis might be cured."
"I heard that so of those Superpower Users have awakened healing superpowers, so they might be able to treat arthritis."
Li Hanzhong chuckled, "Everyone has their fate; my wife and I have accepted ours."
Then he got up and said, "But we do want those two sweet potatoes. Co on, let’s go look together and see if we can find this Li Hanzhong."
Qu Lingling quickly nodded, "Yes, yes, if we find him, we can share sweet potatoes."
Li Hanzhong chuckled and gave his wife Shen Hongi a look.
Shen Hongi understood he wanted to conceal his identity and said nothing more, only advising, "Co back soon."
The two of them, the old and the young, left the corridor and walked to another unit building.
Li Hanzhong sent Qu Lingling off and went to the floor close to the water, looking out at the small boat.
On the boat sat a voluptuous, good-looking woman at the bow, calmly looking toward the building, neither hurried nor impatient.
Beside her, a young man seed a few years her junior but had a strong presence, as if accustod to being in charge.
Li Hanzhong could imdiately tell this person was the leader.
He carefully looked at the woman and finally confird it was indeed Ding Yan!
Excitent flickered in his eyes at once.
Suppressing the urge to call out for help, he noticed many people searching for him around the area.
So had even turned their gaze toward him.
For a simple reason: his appearance matched soone in their sixties.
"Old man, what’s your na?"
Sure enough, soone ca up to him imdiately, asking for his na.
Li Hanzhong quickly replied, "My na is Li Sanjin."
The person looked disappointed, "You damn well should have been nad Li Hanzhong, instead of Li Sanjin. Damn."
Li Hanzhong was speechless but dared not argue with them.
Now he needed to find a way to contact Xiaoding on the water.
The premise was not to let Miss Qiu find out.
He always felt that Miss Qiu wasn’t that kind-hearted.
But how could he do this without Miss Qiu finding out?
Li Hanzhong was anxious, almost wanting to swim across directly.
But clearly, that was unrealistic; mutant beasts lurked under the water, and swimming across was too dangerous.
