No matter how much Old Zhao tried to convince him, he refused to leave. In the end, the old man gave up and asked him to shop for many supplies and also ask his family to do the sa.
The old man had been acting strange since he t that couple last night but he wouldn’t say what had happened.
Now seeing so many supplies, he wondered if that old man had ordered more.
"Master, did you order any more things?" He shouted towards the study where the old man was doing God knows what.
When Old Zhao heard him, he walked out of the study and went to the entrance.
Looking at the things piled up at the door and more were still being moved upstairs, he was astonished.
"I didn’t order them." As he was saying that, one of the two delivery n moving the supplies happened to walk out of the elevator and heard them.
"These things were bought by a young couple who asked us to deliver them to you." He explained.
Old Zhao imdiately knew who the couple was. He smiled to himself as he thought that he had not misjudged them. They were good kids.
Knowing where the supplies ca from, he didn’t stand on ceremony and asked the delivery n for help to move them into the house.
"Can you help us move them inside? We will arrange them later."
Looking at the old man who looked respectable, the delivery n didn’t object and imdiately helped.
As they were about to leave, old Zhao called out to them.
He gave each of them ten thousand yuan and asked them when their shift ends.
"This is our last delivery of the day. We will return the company car and go ho." One of them replied.
"Good, take this money and buy as many supplies as you can. If you have more money saved up, don’t feel a pinch spending it. Buy more supplies and store them and be ho before nightfall.
Inform your families too.
Don’t ask what is happening, if you believe an old man like , just do as I say. Goodbye." Old man Zhao bid them farewell and closed the door after giving them the money.
He didn’t know if they would listen, but he had tried his best for the sake of humanity. Saving one more life is good too.
Luckily, those two delivery n were raised well and respected the elderly. So, even though they had so doubts, they called their family mbers and asked them to go to the nearby supermarkets and buy as many supplies as possible and be ho before dark.
They also used the ten thousand they had been given and went on a shopping spree in a different supermarket from where they worked.
They decided to return the company car the following day. So, after calling their superior to report, they shopped without reservations.
By 6:00 PM, they had filled the truck with supplies and went to deliver them to the house of the first man. Luckily, they didn’t live too far apart.
As his family helped him move the supplies into the house after unloading them, the second guy drove to his own ho and also had his family help in unloading and moving the supplies upstairs into their apartnt.
The two n knew that they had a lot of explaining to do to their families, even though they didn’t know what to say as they had convinced them to use a lot of their saved funds to shop, but there was nothing they could do.
Lu Zhen and Leng Pan on the other hand drove back ho with their newly purchased supplies and had Tao co down to help move them upstairs.
Leng Pan didn’t wait for them and went straight to her apartnt. She didn’t even greet her mother-in-law and uncle and aunt in the other house.
Once inside, she went into the kitchen and took a big mug and filled it with the spiritual spring water using her consciousness.
She drank all of it and stood in the center of the kitchen waiting to see if anything would happen.
It didn’t even take three minutes before she started to feel as if there were ants eating away at her flesh and bones.
It was a kind of pain that made her want to scream her lungs out, but she didn’t make a sound.
Instead, she went into the bathroom and filled her bathtub with cold water. She thought that the numbness of the cold water might help in reducing the pain.
Once the bathtub was full, she took off her clothes and sat inside.
Unfortunately, the numbness did nothing to help as the pain only intensified. To stop herself from screaming, Leng Pan took a small and clean towel on the shelf next to the bathtub and rolled it then bit into it.
The bite was so vicious that if she was biting soone, she could break their bones.
It was so painful that she had the urge to bang her head on the edge of the bathtub and pass out, but she didn’t dare to. What if she drowned?
After twenty minutes, the pain disappeared. It disappeared as if it was never there, which surprised her.
In fact, even though she had read the book, it never ntioned anywhere about Bai Yinyin finding the spiritual spring or using the water.
She always wondered if the spring was an addition caused by her transmigration.
When the pain was completely gone, she got up from the bathtub intending to wipe the water and get dressed. Only then did she realize sothing that she had ignored.
There was a very bad sll around her. That sll wasn’t there when she ca into the bathroom. She looked down at the bathtub and almost passed out.
There was a black mass in the water and it slled like sewerage. Looking down at her own body, so of that mass was sticking to her.
