Messengers

Seeing that Yao Ran was considering his offer, the man added, "Please, just name your price."

"I want planes. Military aircraft, preferably," Yao Ran said calmly.

The moment she spoke, not only the man but also the old man and the others were stunned.

After a long silence, the man laughed awkwardly and said, "Young lady, please don't joke with me. We are just ordinary survivors. Where can we get the military aircraft you want?"

Yao Ran tilted her head slightly at his words and replied, "I'm not joking."

Realizing she was serious, the man chuckled awkwardly before glancing at his grandfather. Seeing the old man's pale face, his heart sank.

He sighed inwardly before turning back to Yao Ran and asked, "Can you ask for something else?"

Yao Ran hadn't really expected him to provide military aircraft; she was just testing her luck. Seeing that he didn't have the means to fulfill her request, she said, "Then there is nothing I want."
