December 17th was the day Li Xin'er hinted to Sister Xia that it was time to start stockpiling goods.

In S City, China, Ge Qiuxia woke up early in the morning with a very bad feeling.

I have a constant feeling that something big is going to happen, like the end of the world, that the world is about to be destroyed. It makes me panic.

And she even specified the exact time, which was the 24th!

She had only one thought in her mind: to stockpile more supplies and protect her son.

She knew, of course, that such an idea was absurd, so she didn't mention it to anyone and quietly began to find ways to stockpile supplies.

On the 19th, Ge Qiuxia deliberately adjusted the schedules of the artists under her management.

Li Xin'er, in country Y, received a call from Sister Xia.

"Sister Xia, it's a promise, I'm still on vacation, so don't try to assign me any work at the last minute."

According to the company's arrangements, she has no scheduled activities this month. Xia Jie is such a busy person, so what else could it be but work for her to take the initiative to call her?

Ge Qiuxia had originally planned to coax the person back gently, but upon hearing the woman's tone, even at work, her professional instincts kicked in instantly.

"If you don't work, you'll starve. You have to sell your house to make investments. Don't you know how to make more money while you're young?"

Director Wang's crew wants to film your scenes on the 24th, you have to be back, there's no room for discussion.

Xia Jie's tone was more resolute than ever before.

When she mentioned the date, the 24th, Li Xin'er's eyes flickered slightly, and she knew something was wrong.

Not receiving a reply, Sister Xia urged again:

"You have to be back by the 23rd at the latest. I've already signed a contract with the production team, so don't even think about shirking your responsibilities."

"Okay, I'll go back on the 23rd."

Li Xin'er knew her good intentions, and since she had originally planned to rush back on the 23rd, she didn't refuse.

Sister Xia had something on her mind, and seeing that she had agreed, she didn't say anything more and hurriedly hung up the phone.

After hanging up the phone, she immediately called Lu Peiting.

"Pei Ting, the location shooting on the 24th has been postponed to after New Year's Day. I have readjusted your schedule. You will return to S City on the 24th and give an exclusive interview to Hongta TV early on the 25th."

Lu Peiting didn't mind these changes and readily agreed.

"good."

"The interview will be conducted as a surprise home visit. I will have someone clean your house in S City in advance."

"Okay, thank you for your help, Sister Xia."

After hanging up the phone, Sister Xia breathed a sigh of relief. She hadn't lied much before, and she felt quite uneasy making things up.

She leaned back in her office chair, closed her eyes, and pondered what else needed to be done.

As she was thinking, she almost fell asleep. Suddenly, Xia sat up straight, patted her forehead, and tried to wake herself up.

She's been overthinking lately and hasn't had a good night's sleep a single day.

After waking up, she picked up her phone and started contacting various distributors to carry out her stockpiling plan.

In Country Y, Li Xin'er had little opportunity to stockpile supplies. Except for her nighttime rest time, Li Yiyuan practically stayed by her side every step of the way.

However, with Li Yiyuan as her tour guide, Li Xin'er had a lot of fun.

During this time, Li Xin'er took advantage of her time at the hotel at night to hack into R country's information network, find the most detailed map, and make a careful plan.

The world she lived in when she was a ghost was far more advanced than the world in this book. The hacking skills she learned out of boredom far surpassed those of this world, and the security network here was a piece of cake in her eyes.

With limited time, if she wanted to collect more supplies, she couldn't focus on ordinary shops; she had to target reserve grain, armories, and the like.

Before she knew it, it was the winter solstice on the 22nd. Li Xin'er rushed to her last stop, R country.

"Xinxin~ Really don't you want to play for a few more days?"

At the airport, Li Yiyuan helped carry the luggage, deliberately slowing down, looking reluctant to part with it.

"Do you think I don't want to have fun? I'm going there for work, and I have to rush back home after just one day..."

Li Xin'er complained, half-jokingly, expressing her helplessness.

Her schedule was indeed very tight. Once she arrived in R country, she had to seize the time to 'help' them preserve their supplies. There was no time to play or even rest.

After spending a few days together, Li Yiyuan proved to be a really good brother. Seeing that he was unhappy, Li Xin'er still tried to comfort him.

"Let's get together again sometime. If you have time to go back to China, I'll definitely make time to treat you, no matter how many days it takes!"

"real?"

Li Yiyuan's eyes instantly lit up, and he straightened up.

"You'd better keep your word!"

He had visited her in China before, but she was busier there than abroad, and many people in China knew her, so going out felt like doing something wrong, let alone going out together.

Li Xin'er thought that she should appease them now, because they wouldn't be able to contact them again after the apocalypse. She nodded.

"certainly."

Contrary to his usual behavior, Li Yiyuan handed the suitcase to Li Xin'er.

"Okay, then hurry up and board the plane."

Not content with just talking, he also reached out and pushed her forward, as if afraid she wouldn't move.

Li Xin'er felt inexplicably disliked, rolled her eyes at him, and waved her little hand.

"Bye-Bye!"

"May Xinxin have a safe journey."

The moment Li Xin'er turned to leave, Li Yiyuan took out his phone and quickly booked a flight back to China for that night.

Isn't Xinxin supposed to be back in China on the 23rd after finishing her work?

He's leaving now, which is perfect timing for him to go back. Then they can spend Christmas Eve and Christmas together. When Xinxin sees him, she'll definitely be surprised and delighted!

Wow, as expected of him, he's so thoughtful!

Thinking of this, he was overjoyed, grinning happily, and hurried home to pack his luggage.
