Transmigration: I Have Storage Space in the Apocalypse novel Chapter 198

Chapter 198: Chapter 195 They All Have a Bad Trait [-48 More]

--------------------

Compared to Lin Aifei’s emotional breakdown, Zhang Shanni remained very calm. Knowing that her husband was leaving in the afternoon, she instructed the man to wash the dishes first, then returned to the bedroom herself, and locked herself in the room.

Hearing the sound of the lock, concern flashed in Xie Jingchen’s eyes.

But this situation, in which he had to leave her for missions at any time, would become a common occurrence in their future daily life.

He couldn’t deceive or coax her; whether she could adapt to this life of frequent separations was up to her own mentality.

Xie Jingchen, within this profession, was aware of his selfishness. However, he had made it clear to her from the beginning that he was an active-duty military officer.

With the maturity his little wife had shown, she couldn’t have misunderstood his meaning at that time. Since she had agreed, then he trusted her to handle the helplessness of inevitable separations well.

Because Xie Jingchen was worried about his wife, it took him less than two minutes to clean a few bowls and dishes.

After drying his hands, he stood at the bedroom door, as if waiting for a ’verdict,’ standing straight with his muscular body clad in a dark green military uniform, which made him look even more rugged.

Zhang Shanni inside the room was, in fact, not mulling over sadness as he had thought!

Zhang Shanni supported her bulging belly, sat down on the bed, closed her eyes, and carefully searched in the Space for ’equipment’ to send to the front lines with her husband, something inconspicuous yet practical.

Speaking of which, that jerk of a past life was truly never stingy with her. Whenever there was a new weapon or combat suit developed by the base, he would equip himself and also get one or two for her.

Of course, that was also because, later on, he practically stored eight or nine-tenths of his wealth in her Space. It also showed that Zhang Shanni was a person of great endurance.

No matter how much she detested her ex-husband in her heart, throughout the many years of the apocalypse, she had always suppressed the hatred in her heart and managed to work with him. Unknowingly, she had accumulated a wealth of resources that would have been beyond her scumbag ex’s imagination.

Thankfully, she knew where her bottom line was, and as long as she didn’t disrupt the stable ground between them, they were able to live together in peace yet discord over the years.

Perhaps it’s a flaw in men, desiring what they can’t possess as precious.

Because she was never willing to yield her body to him, and since she had the confidence and capability, even though he had many women behind her and even had a son, in public, he would only acknowledge her as his wife.

While being promiscuous, he pretended to be deeply infatuated? Those women back then really fell for his act, making her seem ungrateful and immature.

Back then, she really wanted to laugh at those flirty women with wandering hearts and rotten minds!

But regardless, she kept everything the scumbag gave her, from the smallest needle and thread. It’s better to have them gather dust in her Space rather than benefit those hypocritical women!

Now, these items had become her personal belongings.

Nevertheless, because of the defensive clothing’s resistance, bullet damage was greatly reduced. At the time, it was very practical. However, as humans evolved, so did the zombies, and the latter progressed far quicker, leading to these "plain white" defensive suits being quickly phased out.

Noticing they were left unattended and openly lying in a corner, she impulsively collected them all into her Space. Her thinking was simple at the time - with many industries lacking production lines, clothes were consumable items: using one meant having one less, so she was simply acting according to a miser’s instinct not to miss out on anything, even by mistake.

Although these combat suits seemed quite good, they had one weakness: they were afraid of fire.

Well, to be precise, all combat suits made with spider silk were afraid of fire. They would ignite easily and burn at a rate ten times faster than ordinary fabric.

Having found what she needed, Zhang Shanni breathed a sigh of relief.

Earlier on, she was somewhat panicked by Wang Xiuzhen’s ’mutterings’ and had forgotten that besides "nourishing" her man’s body, she still had these ’clothes’ that she once deemed worthless!

Thankfully, it was winter, and wearing something tight underneath the military uniform would go completely unnoticed!

With this thought, Zhang Shanni’s face carried a smile.

A sweep of her spiritual power revealed her husband was actually ’standing punishment’ outside the bedroom door?!

Thinking that the combat suit was somewhat stifling, and that one should take a good bath before wearing it, Zhang Shanni couldn’t sit still any longer. She directly opened the bedroom door and upon seeing her husband staring at her solemnly, she couldn’t help but feel a sense of amusement.

But since he had worried her, she definitely couldn’t let him see her smile that easily!
