CHAPTER 141: CHAPTER 13: THE DRAMA QUEEN SISTER REFUSES TO BE CANNON FODDER (PART 13)

"I hear something around us, let’s hurry and go."

Jiang Chao looked at the surroundings.

"It’s fine, we’ve already surveyed the area, let’s grab more stuff."

But Gu Han Yan urged again.

"The supermarket is so big, surely we’re not the first ones here. Why hasn’t anyone taken the items inside? There’s definitely something wrong here; it’s better if we leave quickly."

Her space was already full, taking more things wouldn’t benefit her anymore. Staying here any longer would only waste time and increase Jiang Lai’s reckless behavior.

This time, it’s necessary to teach her a lesson, to tell her not everyone in this world will indulge her, and the world doesn’t revolve around her alone.

Duan Xu and Yang Jun exchanged a glance, deciding to listen to Gu Han Yan, while Yan Zhouxing whispered behind Jiang Chao.

"I just saw an entire shelf’s items suddenly vanish."

He was sure he didn’t see wrong; before coming in, he wanted to grab snacks from that shelf to satisfy his cravings. But after collecting important supplies and turning back, the entire snack shelf was empty.

He looked at everyone’s carts; there weren’t any snacks visible.

What does this imply? Someone among them isn’t right.

Jiang Chao was silent for a moment, finally speaking.

"Then you all go first, I’ll clear out this shelf and leave."

Gu Han Yan looked deeper into the supermarket and sighed reluctantly.

"You’re waiting for Jiang Lai, right? Didn’t everyone agree to act together? Where has she run off to now?"

As she spoke, the newly joined superpower users expressed their dissatisfaction.

They were the ones who escaped the research base together without a place to go and decided to join Jiang Chao’s team, having heard rumors about Captain Jiang’s troubled sister who always dragged her feet, and now it seemed true.

"I think I heard some noise inside, we should hurry and leave, it’s not worth risking for these items."

Everyone was urging; Jiang Chao looked again toward the supermarket’s depths, feeling anxious yet helpless.

At this moment, Gu Han Yan suddenly spoke up.

"Everyone push your stuff back, I’ll stay here with the Captain and wait for Jiang Lai, we can’t let everyone take risks."

Though it should be a touching moment, Jiang Chao didn’t feel moved at all.

"All of you go out, Old Yan, you and Han Yan start the car, I’ll be right behind."

Yan Zhouxing advised.

"If it doesn’t work, just run quickly; I’ll wait for you to come out."

Before everyone left, Gu Han Yan asked again.

"You really don’t need me to stay and wait with you? We’re all one team, if you get hurt, everyone will worry."

Jiang Chao shook his head.

"It’s fine, I can handle it, you go."

Before getting into the car, many people complained, some voiced quietly, others loudly, continuing their grievances inside the vehicle.

"The Captain is bound to get harmed by his sister sooner or later."

"It’s self-destructive, she can’t stop running around and causing trouble!"

"What can you do but follow behind and clean up her mess?"

Speaking of which, Gu Han Yan casually chimed in.

"She is the Captain’s sister, let’s not talk like that. At least don’t say it in front of her, or there’ll be more tantrum with the Captain."

The newly joined ones immediately felt unhappy upon hearing this.

"So their team is completely under the sibling’s thumbs? I wouldn’t have joined if I’d known about this peculiar sister."

"It’s such a hassle, we might as well leave and drive off."

"Right, with a car full of supplies, why risk attracting attention? Let’s quickly leave, no one wants to be dragged down by the siblings, right?"

They became increasingly passionate in their complaining, and had they known how to drive, they might have snatched the wheel and left.

Suddenly, a faint voice came from outside the car door.

"Who just said they regret joining?"

It was Jiang Chao; unbelievably, he had come out so quickly!

Those who were speaking earlier fell instantly silent, exchanging glances, not daring to admit.

Jiang Chao climbed into the car, followed by Jiang Lai with a shopping cart, the siblings delayed only about a minute, and no one expected them to return so promptly.

"Anyone wanting to leave can do so now, I won’t stop you. As for those wanting to drive off and leave us behind... it’s you two, right?"

The two men, caught, inevitably felt embarrassed but nervously laughed.

"Just kidding, merely joking around, it’s not like some of us were driving, right?"

Jiang Chao remained expressionless, a ball of fire forming in his palm.

"You two, leave voluntarily or I’ll show you out."

Seeing that Jiang Chao was serious, the two were dumbfounded.

"Captain, we were joking, don’t take it seriously."

"You staying was also a joke, so leave now, don’t force my hand."

With that, Jiang Chao advanced the fireball toward them, the heat wave was intense, demonstrating that Jiang Chao meant business, leaving no room for negotiation.

"Damn it, I don’t want to stay here! I’m taking all my supplies and leaving! Bah!"

"For the sake of a worthless sister, you’re ditching two superpower users, Jiang Chao, you’re something! The rest of you see how he treats skilled teammates, even if you’re talented, around his sister you must cower, or you’ll end up like us, kicked out!"

They cursed as they exited, attempting to push their supplies from the carts but found them immovable, as if nailed to the ground, rendering even the greatest effort useless.

Angrily, they turned to the people inside the car.

"Who?! Who did this?!"

They raised their guns.

The next moment, the gun pointed at the nearby companion.

With a ’bang,’ gunfire erupted, and the two began unleashing their skills on each other in a frenzy. This time, Jiang Lai shouted to the driver’s seat.

"Yan, drive!"

"Alrighty!"

Yan Zhouxing cheerfully started the car, leaving behind the two self-destructing individuals. Only after the car had gone far did it halt, revealing a duo worn and bloody in aftermath.

Meanwhile, terrifying howling and growling erupted from the supermarket, the two men turned to see a giant spider-like creature descending from above.

"Ah—!!"

The screams echoed far, heard by all inside the car.

Everyone exchanged bewildered glances, even they didn’t know why those two started attacking each other.

Only the superpower users glanced toward Jiang Lai in a knowing way.
