Chapter 344

Sitting in the driver’s seat, Daxie cautiously sniffed the tobacco smell inside the car, swallowed hard, but didn’t dare to ask for one.

In the passenger seat, Li Nan nodded slightly, “The extreme of things brings reversal? Please enlighten us, boss.”

Wu Erpeng chuckled and lowered the car window a crack.

“After this battle, Lin Qianhuan has become a god-like existence in the eyes of most survivors in the Nanfeng base. They regard her as a god, treating her as a belief and hope to live on. But gods cannot make mistakes. Once Lin Qianhuan shows the slightest malice towards the survivors, what do you think will happen?”

Li Nan’s eyes were dark, and the corners of his lips carried an understanding smile.

“Indeed, that’s the principle. If she wants to maintain her lofty image in the eyes of the survivors, she must be extremely caring and inclusive to everyone. If she makes the slightest mistake, she will be immediately retaliated against. Heh, sometimes, the crowd’s support and trust are also a double-edged sword…”

It can give a person supreme power, but it can also instantly turn against her and pull her down from the altar.

Wu Erpeng sat in the back row, smoking and constantly groping the woman’s body with his rough, short hands.

“As long as she wants to continue to be in a high position and command the wind and rain, she must tolerate our ‘small mistakes.’ In that case, what do we have to be afraid of?”

Daxie: “Boss is wise and mighty!”

A mere afternoon passed quickly.

The convoy had already traveled a considerable distance, and although the journey was tiring, having something in their stomachs made it less difficult.

The survivors, on the other hand, felt hopeful and began to swallow their saliva before it was even time to eat.

Now that they had finally made it to mealtime, everyone jumped out of the cars and eagerly gathered around the large pot, waiting for food.

Looking at the green leafy vegetables on the cutting board, everyone’s eyes lit up.

“Vegetables! Green vegetables!”

“Oh my god, it’s really vegetables, and they’re still covered in water droplets, they must have just been picked!”

“Are all these vegetables for us to eat?”

The person in charge of cooking smiled and nodded, “The base leader is kind-hearted and worried that we wouldn’t get enough nutrition from just eating white porridge, so she specially added green vegetables and salt. It not only tastes good but is also good for the body.”

As soon as these words came out, the people surrounding him instantly boiled over, and some people’s eyes were even filled with tears.

“The base leader is truly a living Bodhisattva who saves us from suffering.”

“Not only did she let us survive, but she also led everyone north to find a new home. The base leader is really thinking of us!”

“Such a kind person like the base leader is rare even before the apocalypse, how lucky are we to have met her?”

…

Everyone was praising Lin Qianhuan to the skies.

Lin Yixuan and Lin Wansheng naturally heard these words, and their brows couldn’t help but furrow slightly.

If it were just ordinary gratitude for saving their lives, that would be fine.

But now, it was somewhat of a trend of creating a god.

It was unknown whether this was good or bad for Lin Qianhuan.

If she was really praised too highly, her future words and deeds would have to be extremely cautious, otherwise, people would seize on her mistakes and exaggerate them, causing her to fall from the clouds into the mud.

If Lin Qianhuan handled it properly, these survivors would be her most loyal believers for life.

If she didn’t handle it well, the two sides would turn against each other, and the trouble would be even greater.

Seeing Lin Yixuan’s expression becoming increasingly heavy, Lin Wansheng raised his hand and gently patted his shoulder.

“Don’t be so nervous, relax. Don’t you know Qianhuan’s strength? She’s experienced more things than us, she can handle this little thing.”

Lin Yixuan restrained the worry in his eyes and silently nodded.

The convoy stopped, and the patrol car naturally stopped on the side of the road, as did the red car that Wu Erpeng and the others were riding in.

Lin Qianhuan jumped out of her car and walked forward to knock on the car window.

Perhaps to give her a show of power, the people inside waited a long time before rolling down the window, and the stale smell of tobacco, foot odor, and sweat that had been baking in the car for a long time instantly wafted out.

With her sensitive sense of smell as an ability user, Lin Qianhuan frowned and took a step back, raising her eyebrows slightly at the people inside the car.

“Gentlemen, why don’t we get out and chat?”

Wu Erpeng smiled and leaned back in his seat comfortably.

“The porridge isn’t cooked yet, it’s a little early to get out of the car now, right? What do you need us for, base leader?”

Lin Qianhuan stood aside with her arms crossed, her eyes slightly cold, a sign that she was about to get angry.

“Why pretend to be confused when you know what’s going on? I set the rule that private cars must follow at the end of the line to avoid hindering the journey. Are you deaf or stupid? Can’t even remember what I said?”

Daxie rolled his eyes and pressed the horn boredly, attracting the attention of many people.

“Base leader, we do know that you said that. But you know how dangerous it is to walk at the back of the line, right? Why can you be protected by everyone in the center of the team, while we can only go to the rear to guard? Isn’t that too unfair?”

Listening to his words, Lin Qianhuan only felt it was ridiculous.

“I know that the rear of the team is dangerous, but I sent my two older brothers to guard it. Why don’t you say that this arrangement is unfair to them? It’s even more ludicrous that I’m being protected in the center of the team, do you think I need to be protected? Furthermore, I’m in the middle to better communicate and connect with both sides of the vehicles, but in your mouth, it’s become being protected? Don’t you find it ridiculous yourself?”

Daxie opened his mouth to retort, but Li Nan tugged at his sleeve.
