Translator: 549690339
The supermarket was not far away, located in the basement of a large shopping mall.
At this moment, the shopping mall was empty, the stairway leading to the basement pitch black, with no sign of movement within.
Seeing this scene, their hearts were already half cold even before they descended.
After a brief discussion, it was decided that Shen MO and teacher Chang would go down, while Tan Xiao would stay outside to watch over Bai Youwei. Firstly, Shen MO was agile, ready to deal with any sudden situation;
Secondly, teacher Chang was familiar with the surroundings as he returned here for a short stay every year.
Tan Xiao and Bai Youwei didn’t just wait outside, they went into the mall nearby.
The first floor of the mall was filled with various branded clothing stores, bakeries, dessert shops, jewelry stores, and so on.
As there was no electricity, it became very dark further in. Tan Xiao shone his flashlight around, seeing a few shadows and excitedly dashed towards them, only to find they were mannequins.
He even stared at the mannequins from head to toe, suspecting they were dolls turned from humans.
Unfortunately, they were not.
Bai Youwei slowly browsed around in her wheelchair.
Perhaps because fancy clothes were not necessities, the merchandise here was mostly intact. She came to a bedding store which featured high-quality cotton and linen products, exhibiting various styles of cotton and linen sheets and duvet covers.
She touched them, finding them to be quite good, although not as good as those at her home.
Bai Youwei waved at Tan Xiao.
“Hey, which one is better?” asked Bai Youwei, holding two sheets, “Mist blue or grey striped?”
“…” Tan Xiao stared at her blankly, his eyes seemed to ask: Are we here for shopping?
Bai Youwei, annoyed by his gaze, frowned and grabbed both sheets saying, “Never mind. I’ll take both.”
Tan Xiao:
She then patted a sample bed in the store and said, “Move the mattress onto the car.”
“But the trunk’s already filled.” Tan Xiao was surprisingly, he couldn’t figure out why Bai Youwei wanted this mattress.
Naturally, the use of a mattress is for sleeping, but during such unusual times, was a mattress… a priority?
Without any doubt in her voice, Bai Youwei said, “If there’s no space in the car, there’s always the roof.”
Tan Xiao was stunned, he scratched his head and lifted the mattress onto his shoulder. Fortunately, it was a foldable type and didn’t require much effort.
“There are pure cotton nightgowns over there, help me get one on the way.” Bai Youwei ordered him around.
Since he was already taking the mattress, he didn’t mind adding a few more pieces of clothing.
Tan Xiao picked a nightgown, notice there were men’s pajamas nearby, he also grabbed one for himself. Remembering Shen MO and Chang Weicai, he figured that good brothers should share blessings! Two more!
When Shen MO and Chang Weicai came out of the supermarket, they found a small mountain on the top of the car.
Bai Youwei said expressionlessly: “The mattress is what I wanted. The clothes, slippers, towels, blankets, thermo mug, sun hats, sunglasses… Tan Xiao wanted.”
Shen Mo: ‘
Teacher Chang:
Tan Xiao defended seriously: “All useful stuff.”
After saying this, his keen eyes noticed Shen Mo carrying a bag, he quickly asked: “And you guys? What did you find in the supermarket?”
“Not much.” Shen MO put the shopping bag into the car, and blandly said,? “The supermarket is almost empty. We found some batteries.”
“Oh…” Tan Xiao touched his face. Batteries, were indeed very important supplies.
Bai Youwei asked Shen Mo: “What’s the situation in the supermarket now?”
“Almost eighty percent empty inside.” Shen MO recalled for a moment, then added, “But it’s not in chaos..”
