Transmigration: I Have Storage Space in the Apocalypse novel Chapter 9

Chapter 9: Chapter 009: The Brainless Village Girl

```

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

"Little girl, what are you digging?" Xie Jingchen noticed the clumps of earth rolling down to his feet and had to take a few steps back before he asked aloud.

"I'll be done soon." Zhang Shanni didn't explain what she was digging. It was better if just the two of them knew about it. Announcing it would be problematic, especially since they were in the wilderness, and attracting attention would spell trouble!

She swiftly passed the gold ring to her hand with her consciousness and stealthily held it while rolling it a few times in the pit she had dug. To make it seem more realistic, she pressed the ring firmly into the mud with a stone, dug a little further down, then pretended to be done with the digging. She slipped the object into her pocket, grabbed the cloth bag, found a good spot to leverage, and jumped down from a height of over three meters without a change in expression.

The original owner of the body wasn't afraid, so she was even less so. After all, she had survived an apocalypse before; her courage was far greater than the original owner's!

"Be careful!" Xie Jingchen reflexively took a large step and managed to catch her small body as it fell, getting slapped by the heavy cloth bag in her hand. A numbing sensation immediately spread up his arm, indicating the impact was quite strong!

Xie Jingchen knew his arm strength was over 300 jin, yet he hadn't expected this little aunt to weigh so much despite her slender appearance!

"Ah, are you alright? Are you hurt?"

Zhang Shanni's face flushed with embarrassment, she quickly hopped down from his arms, and seeing him maintaining his posture immovably, she deduced that her weight must have numbed his arm. She guiltily approached, took his hand, and started massaging it gently yet firmly, while apologizing in a low and anxious voice:

"I'm sorry, I'm used to jumping and didn't think it was that high; it caused you to get hurt."

"I'm fine; it's just a bit numb, it will recover in a moment," Xie Jingchen said, looking down and speaking in a subdued voice as he caught a glimpse of the height she had just jumped from.

By his estimate, the distance from the ground was at least three meters. This little aunt was truly fearless, her courage surpassing even that of his troops'!

At this moment, Xie Jingchen's thoughts were somewhat strange, and more than that, was he feeling a bit of an urge to laugh and cry? This little aunt clearly was used to fending for herself at home and had her own ideas.

Looking back at her previous appearances and actions, if Xie Jingchen were to say she was a brainless village girl, even he wouldn't believe it.

"Xie Jingchen, you're a genuinely good person!" Even Zhang Shanni, a pragmatic woman, had to acknowledge that this man had a good nature! ƒrēewebnovel.com

If it were someone else who saw her jump, whether they would save her or not was one thing; most would instinctively move farther away! She couldn't help but mentally give him a 'good person card', feeling that the Rong Wei of this era indeed had character!

"Uh," Xie Jingchen turned black-faced; today he truly was a nice guy, nothing like the hellish 'Xie Luocha' his subordinates spoke of! Seeing her nonchalant actions, he still spoke earnestly:

"Don't come here again, it's too high!"

"Okay, I'll listen to you. I won't come here anymore; I probably won't have many chances to visit here in the future anyway."

Zhang Shanni wasn't afraid of his scowl; she found that although he has a stern appearance, he was warm-hearted and easily blushed—a blush that was hard to notice unless you really looked. If it weren't for her sharp eyes catching the redness from his ear tips, she would have never known that simply holding her wrist could make him shy!
