Interstellar Journey after Rebirth

Chapter 29 Someone Asks for Food

And little Sisi hasn't eaten anything for some time, at least that's what the Chen couple thinks.

Although others had some guesses about the situation of Chen Mo's family, when they saw little Sisi's rosy face, they thought that the family must have enough food in private.

After all, when everyone else was pale and thin, Xiao Sisi's red lips, white teeth, and even a little double chin were too conspicuous.

This means that the couple kept all the good things for the child.

However, Chen Mo and his family of three knew very well that everything they had now was brought by Mo Jiang's generous gift.

They must be cautious in order to survive in this environment full of unknowns and dangers.

However, the unpredictable nature of fate always catches people off guard.

About half a month later, Chen Mo had just gotten up when the phantom machine on his wrist rang.

After he clicked it to check, his expression instantly became serious.

Seeing this, Wu Li nervously moved over, wanting to know what was going on.

Chen Mo silently handed the phantom phone to Wu Li and asked her to read the text message on it.

After reading it, Wu Li's face turned pale.

She grabbed Chen Mo's arm tightly, her heart filled with fear and anxiety.

"This... no, it's not true, is it true?" Wu Li's voice trembled slightly.

However, Chen Mo's serious expression completely shattered her hope.

She actually understood it in her heart.

In this predicament of material scarcity, Chen Mo and his colleagues could hardly make a living, let alone others.

People on the first floor also faced food shortages, so it was not surprising that such a thing happened.

In Chen Mo's room alone, several people have not returned for several days in a row, which makes the whole floor shrouded in a depressing atmosphere.

Others also chose to stay indoors and avoid going out as much as possible.

Chen Mo already had some rough guesses in his mind about what was happening outside.

People on the second floor can go down to the first floor, but people on the first floor will be attacked by the starship itself if they want to go up to the second floor.

Before, Chen Mo vaguely heard people on the second floor say that they had gone down to rob people on the first floor and got some supplies, and then they went out frequently.

However, one day they came back with bruises on their bodies, and four of them never came back.

Since then, they have never gone out again. Chen Mo guessed that this must be because of a fierce fight between the two sides.

But after just a few days, has the situation outside deteriorated to such an extent? Chen Mo couldn't help but feel worried.

He knows that in this chaotic era, everyone must be careful to protect themselves and their families.

Now, they can only stay in the house quietly and pray that all this will be over as soon as possible.

Wu Li's fear was slightly relieved after being comforted by Chen Mo.

Her biggest concern was whether they were safe and whether they would be affected by the rioters.

Chen Mo tried his best to tell Wu Li in a calm tone that they should be safe for now.

The pilots in the starship had never shown their faces, which gave Chen Mo some trust in the starship's internal system.

He hopes that this system will be able to protect them until they reach their destination safely.

However, Chen Mo didn't know whether the driver was aware of the riot on the first floor, let alone whether they would intervene to manage it.

Pray that the starship's internal systems will continue to function and keep them safe.

At this moment, a beautiful woman came over from the bed next to them and knelt down in front of Chen Mo and his wife.

He reached out to hug Chen Mo's thigh, but Chen Mo dodged and said, "If you have something to say, just say it."

The woman's face froze for a moment, then she smoothed her hair which was a little messy due to her movements, and her expression became ingratiating again.

"Brother Chen, please lend me some food. I'll give you whatever you want." He said while throwing her a coquettish look.

When Wu Li saw this, she was filled with anger and reached out to slap the woman.

But she was stopped by Chen Mo, and Wu Li looked up at Chen Mo.

Chen Mo didn't say anything, but shook his head.

"We don't have much food left." After comforting Wu Li, Chen Mo turned around and rejected the woman.

"Look at your loser, he eats so well and has a rosy complexion. It's a waste. Why don't you give him the food, Brother Chen? I will give you a son then." The woman stated her request with a nonchalant look on her face.

"You are the one who is losing money, your whole family is losing money. I will beat you to death, you bitch." When Wu Li heard someone scolding Chen Si, she immediately became furious and stretched out her hand to hit the woman.

Chen Mo, who was very strong, almost couldn't stop him.

When the woman saw Wu Li rushing towards her, she not only did not dodge, but her eyes were filled with excitement.

Chen Mo held Wu Li tightly, but it was no use.

Wu Li wanted to beat someone up, and she kept muttering, "I'll beat you to death, you bitch. You're the one who loses money. I'll beat you to death, you bitch..."

Chen Mo understood that Wu Li was stimulated and her illness recurred.

There was no other way, so Chen Mo had to tell Wu Li that Sisi was still sleeping and she couldn't wake her up.

Hearing that Sisi was sleeping, Wu Li immediately calmed down.

She also hushed at Chen Mo, then turned around and lay on the bed, holding Chen Sibao in her arms and sang a nursery rhyme.

Seeing Wu Li go to bed and ignore her, a trace of disappointment flashed in the woman's eyes.

But he disappeared again in a flash, and then kowtowed to Chen Mo, "Please, Brother Chen, save me!"

However, Chen Mo dodged by turning sideways.

He could still guess what this woman was thinking.

She wanted to anger Wu Li and make her beat her.

After a woman is beaten, she will definitely ask for compensation, and you will have to give it to her even if you don't want to.

Otherwise, everyone in the room would definitely attack him and punish him together.

After all, their wives were the ones who hit them first and were the ones at fault, so they can stand on the moral high ground and blame themselves.

But once I give her food, what if others come to ask for food?

Should you give it to yourself or not?

If he didn't want to give it, then why did he give it to that woman? Was there some kind of private transaction?

Even if he gave it to me, I wouldn't have many nutrients left, and I don't know how long the starship will last.

What should I do if I have no food?

So we definitely can’t open this loophole.

No one can give it, and everyone is miserable. It is said that one can get food by selling misery, but there is no such good thing in the world.

"Everyone is having difficulties, and we don't have much food left." Chen Mo replied coldly.

"Brother Chen, you're joking. Everyone knows that you have a space button. No one will believe you if you say there's nothing. Why don't you open the space button and let us all see." The woman persisted and revealed her purpose, also provoking the greed of the people around her.

The woman's presence undoubtedly added a touch of complexity to this room that was already filled with depression and anxiety.
