The Pregnant Mommy Survive on Unlimited Supplies-Chapter 240: Whoever obtains resources obtains the world

Qin Zhen stood in front of Ma Yongchun, inside his large tent, where there was a smokeless firewood stove and a pile of firewood.

These resources could be found in almost every tent both inside and outside Xiang City.

Outside, heavy snow was falling. Apart from Xiang City and B City, all other cities had been buried, with snow reaching waist deep.

And yet, this snow had fallen for only a mere ten days or so.

Her face was frosty, filled with detachment and unfamiliarity as she looked at Ma Yongchun,

"C City won’t survive this disaster. Now, while we still can clear the roads, we arranged this morning to do so and to relocate C City’s survivors to Xiang City or B City. It’s our only way out."

No sooner had she finished speaking than Ma Yongchun slapped her across the face, twisting her head to one side.

He said, annoyed,

"I am the Commander of C City, Qin Zhen. Have you forgotten your own status? Did you ask for my opinion before doing this?"

Faced with the natural disaster, Ma Yongchun was completely devoted, not treating the Garrison like slaves, and he had never given up on the life of any survivor.

He had always strived to be a good Commander.

But why? His younger brother, whom he cherished to his core, embezzled funds from C City’s reserve account, and his wife secretly planned to give C City’s resources to Gong Yi and Hua Mi.

What had he done wrong?

He wanted to be a good Commander, a good older brother, a good husband. How had he wronged these people?

Half of Qin Zhen’s face swelled from the slap. Ma Zhixuan, standing behind Ma Yongchun, also seemed to understand what was happening. He stepped forward,

"Sister-in-law, this is too much. Don’t you know how loathsome that Hua Mi is? How can you give C City’s resources to Xiang City?"

Qin Zhen turned her face, ignoring Ma Yongchun’s shocked and furious gaze, her eyes sharp as she looked at Ma Zhixuan,

"I’d rather feed all the resources to Hua Mi than to you!"

"You still dare to say..." Ma Yongchun raised his hand to slap her again.

But Qin Zhen stepped forward,

"Hit me, Ma Yongchun, hit me. But you can’t change the fact."

"Zhou Cheng won’t listen to you anymore. He’s so close to Gong Yi they might as well be wearing the same pants. Do you think your brother can do such things and still obey you?"

"What’s more, can’t you see? C City’s strained survival up till now is at its last breath, and even if you had the power to reach the skies, you can’t withstand the endless emergence of various accidents."

As she spoke, Qin Zhen’s eyes were full of deep scorn while looking at Ma Yongchun,

"Besides, you have such an unreliable younger brother. I see no future for C City; I have to be responsible for millions of survivors."

Ma Yongchun, pointing at Qin Zhen, was so angry he was almost spitting blood,

"So, for this possible future you think may happen, you destroyed C City?"

"Even if Zhixuan is at fault, I would scold him, reprimand him, and educate him again. This has always been our family’s private matter. And you, for your own selfish ends, have you started this insane vendetta against me and Zhixuan?"

He looked at Qin Zhen as if he was seeing this woman for the first time; where was her broad perspective, her magnanimity and grace?

The current Qin Zhen was nothing but a vengeful madwoman!

Qin Zhen laughed, her half-swollen face grimacing as she lifted her head in defiance,

"Ma Yongchun, only today did I realize the vast difference between our visions."

He furiously accused her of being self-serving and vengeful toward Ma Zhixuan.

Yet, he had never considered seeing the situation from another angle.

Qin Zhen had never been the petty type.

Facing Qin Zhen’s open and radiant demeanor, Ma Yongchun’s face turned pale as he stepped back twice.

Behind him, Ma Zhixuan was still speaking,

"Brother, this time sister-in-law has really sold us out in C City, the mistake she made is much bigger than mine, we..."

Ma Yongchun turned around and glared fiercely at Ma Zhixuan, successfully making Ma Zhixuan lower his head.

He still had the face to mention Qin Zhen?! This time, it was Ma Zhixuan who had driven Qin Zhen to directly turn her coat.

After Ma Zhixuan timidly lowered his head, Ma Yongchun rubbed his face, feeling utterly powerless as he said to Qin Zhen,

"Fine, you’ve let off your steam, you may not help with reclaiming that batch of goods, and you have fed the C City fabrics to Hua Mi. Now tell me, can you stop?"

Indeed, Qin Zhen was right about one thing, Ma Zhixuan had offended Zhou Cheng, and Zhou Cheng had a very strong relationship with Gong Yi.

Now that Ma Yongchun had lost the support of the armed forces in C City, he needed to salvage the situation, and to do that, Zhou Cheng had to listen to him.

Qin Zhen ignored Ma Yongchun and just took out a divorce agreement and a declaration,

"The marital system in Xiang City is still in place. We are getting a divorce, and this declaration will be published online simultaneously. Anyone who can still access the internet will see that you and I are done."

She handed the two documents to Ma Yongchun.

But Ma Yongchun just had an expression of disbelief and did not take the documents from Qin Zhen.

Ma Zhixuan was about to speak again, but he inexplicably felt that the atmosphere inside this tent seemed to allow no room for him to babble.

If he were to speak, he would undoubtedly incur the wrath of both his brother and Qin Zhen.

Qin Zhen placed the two documents on the table and said coldly,

"Ma Yongchun, you have no choice. We were once husband and wife, you know my character."

The utmost calm and the resolve that, once a decision was made, not even nine horses could pull her back, were precisely what Ma Yongchun fell for in Qin Zhen.

However, that very trait had now become the inescapable doom of their marriage.

Ma Yongchun looked at Qin Zhen with a heart full of sorrow. Outside the tent, snowflakes drifted down, and no amount of warmth inside the tent could warm Ma Yongchun’s icy hands and feet.

As Qin Zhen turned to leave, Ma Yongchun suddenly shouted,

"Have you ever thought about our child when you suddenly wanted to go our separate ways?"

Oh, he still remembered the child.

Qin Zhen turned back, her breath visible in the cold air,

"It’s been over half a month, and this is the first time you’ve inquired about our child. So do you know what he’s been through?"

"Ma Yongchun, in this life, you have never truly been there for anyone."

After those words, Qin Zhen left the tent. Once outside, she told the secretary waiting there,

"Post an announcement online, stating that my relationship with Ma Yongchun has broken down and we are no longer together."

The secretary outside hesitated and asked,

"Madam, must it be this way?"

Qin Zhen walked forward, her back nearly bent by sorrow, yet still resolutely stepping through the thick snow,

"If I don’t do this, I can’t win back the trust of those wealthy individuals."

These wealthy individuals had started doubting Ma Yongchun’s original intentions.

The mess Ma Zhixuan caused was far from a mere waste of some money.

But if the wealthy of C City knew that Qin Zhen divorced Ma Yongchun and, in her own name, led C City to align with Hua Mi, they would continue to donate money to Qin Zhen.

After all, whoever has the supplies controls the world.
