Chapter 20: Regrets

People have a lot of regrets in their life.

In Yu Shi Lan’s life, the things that she regretted could be used to make extremely long list. Even though there were many outrageous things that she did when she was younger, her greatest regret was indeed to let her foster parents took advantage of her identity and bullied a lot of people.

Now that she had taken herself out of the family registration, they couldn’t do it again.

The problem is, Yu Shi Lan was only 17 years old.

If she hadn’t told the person in charge that she will be 18 this year, they would not have agreed to let her separate her household residence. After all, a minor needed to have guardian to take care of them.

Yu Shi Lan played pity and said that she wanted to live by herself because she felt that her family was too poor. She barely ate enough and so on.

Well, she didn’t really say that much.

But she could guess that the staff and the person in charge might end up thinking too much.

After all, her performance at that time was indeed quite convincing even for them.

Seeing such a child being bullied might have tugged their heartstring.

’I should have taken drama course if the world hadn’t changed.’ Yu Shi Lan chuckled to herself when she thought about this.

Because she knew very well that most of her acting could look genuine because she had seen and experienced so many things.

Ah…

Forget it.

“Let’s get enough resources.”

Yu Shi Lan glanced to the side and saw that more and more people were coming in. They have opened up the path in the escalator but instead of leaving, they chose to stay here.

Since Yu Shi Lan had finished making the second space storage talisman, she used it to get a lot of other resources that she hadn’t taken before, including some spare quilts and mattress.

What if she needed to camp outside?

Yu Shi Lan silently took camping equipments too.

“Meow.” <You really need these strange things?> Xiao Mao was pressing her soft paw on a thick mattress and felt confused.

“Yes, don’t you like sleeping on top of the mattress?” Yu Shi Lan asked and rubbed Xiao Mao’s head.

Now, most of her space has been filled and Yu Shi Lan felt a bit awkward for wearing two necklace at the same time. But this is also the safest place because most people would not reach out to look at her necklace when it’s right in front of her chest.

And Yu Shi Lan also made sure to keep it hidden beneath her clothes.

“That’s my food!”

“No, it’s mine.”

With more people crowding the supermarket, it was getting harder to sleep peacefully.

Yu Shi Lan also realized this and didn’t hesitate to bring her blanket and a backpack out of the supermarket. Since there were still many resources on the ground, no one paid attention to her.

After all, they would not steep so low that they would rob other people just because they have some resources.

The resources in the supermarket was still plenty.

“Meow?” <Miss, are you not planning to stay in the supermarket and then get more resources before leaving?> Xiao Mao felt that it would be a waste to leave now. There were still a lot of resources left in the supermarket.

Due to the limitation of her Qi and materials, the space storage talisman was not that big in space, but it was enough to keep a lot of things for her.

Yu Shi Lan looked at Xiao Mao speechlessly. “Do you really think that you can escape if you leave later?”

When the amount of resources in the mall become scarce, that was when human’s heart would be challenged the most.

While it would probably not escalate so much, but it would be troublesome.

Yu Shi Lan had already experienced a lot of drama and she has no interest to experience more right now. It would be better for her to go out and find a place to rest.

After looking around, she finally picked a relatively intact bookstore and spread out the mattress before sleeping with the blanket.

“Hmm, there’s someone here,” the male employee from before was standing not far from Yu Shi Lan and then finally picked the store opposite of her.

Yu Shi Lan glanced at him and realized that even though this man looked laid back and lazy, he was actually very smart.
