What does it feel like to be betrayed by the person closest and most trusted? Reborn, Hua Mi believes that the top priority in the apocalypse is to have abundant supplies, stay away from crowds and...
"Mrs. Gong".
On the vehicle heading to the first obstacle clearing point on the Hunan-C Expressway.
A young woman wearing a long, silver-white down jacket and glasses thicker than the bottom of a beer bottle sat next to Hua Mi.
She introduced herself.
"My name is Shi Caixia, and I am Miss Qin's secretary. I will accompany you to City C to receive the one million tons of fabric."
As she spoke, Shi Caixia adjusted her glasses.
"You can also contact me regarding the remaining supplies in the war reserve warehouse."
She handed over a stack of documents, all bearing Qin Zhen's signature and her personal seal.
Because Qin Zhen was still in her postpartum period, she was not comfortable letting Hua Mi go to City C alone.
So she assigned Hua Mi a secretary.
Hua Mi rubbed her temples, looking at Shi Caixia sitting beside her, who was earnestly showing her some documents.
"You've already seen it, why are you showing it to me?"
"You absolutely must read this. If you get carsick, I'll explain the contents of these documents to you one by one."
Shi Caixia began to explain earnestly, appearing both stubborn and rigid.
Soon, Hua Mi got bored.
Just at this moment,

A line of subtitles flashed through her mind, reflecting her idleness and desire to keep herself busy.
Hua Mi opened the lottery interface and randomly drew a few prizes.

The car stopped, and Hua Mi suddenly opened her eyes. The driver in front turned around and said with a pained expression,
"No, Mrs. Gong, we can't leave. The snow is too heavy, and our wheels are stuck in it."
The snow ahead, like fluffy cotton wool, was frantically drifting in the wind.
Although this section of the road has already been cleared, it will be covered with snow again in just half a day.
Shi Caixia looked at the thick snow outside the car window with some surprise.
"Why is it snowing so heavily?"
She had been following Qin Zhen in Xiangcheng, handling his paperwork and other official business on a daily basis, and hadn't been back to City C for a long time.
As a result, even though we've only gone a short distance from Xiangcheng, the snow on the road has become this thick.
Shi Caixia found it strange and muttered to herself.
"The snow in Xiangcheng isn't this thick."
Sitting next to her, Hua Mi explained,
"Because there are urban clearing teams in and around Xiangcheng that specialize in shoveling snow."
Uncle Ba's road clearing team has already swallowed up the management road clearing team of Xiangcheng.
They also hired many more people to clean inside and out, and their business scope expanded to City B.
Because the highways between City A and City C are not yet open, the clearing team only sweeps the cleared sections of the road each day.
The cleaning frequency is far lower than that in Xiangcheng, B City, and on the Xiang B Expressway.
This snow was cleared by the snow removal team once.
Upon hearing this, Shi Caixia's expression turned extremely surprised. She looked at the driver reversing with some panic and asked nervously:
"What do we do? Are we not able to get through now?"
In fact, when Shi Caixia heard that Hua Mi was going to clear the construction site, she felt that it was a bit unreliable.
After all, Hua Mi was already more than four months pregnant, and supplies from City C couldn't be transported to Xiangcheng. Hua Mi couldn't solve any problems by going alone.
It would be better to let Gong Yi in City C think of a solution.
If all else fails, City C will have to pay for the transport planes that Gong Yi has to bring over the 100 tons of fabric.
However, judging from the current heavy snowfall, Shi Caixia estimated that Gong Yi's transport plane would not be able to reach City C.
The snow was so heavy that even if Gong Yi's transport plane was intact, it would be extremely difficult to fly safely to City C in such severe weather.
The driver in front sighed and tried to reverse, but the wheels got completely stuck, and he couldn't back up anymore.
So the driver gritted his teeth and opened the car door.
"I'll go shovel the snow, Mrs. Gong, please stay in the car."
"Wait a minute." Hua Mi reached into her large shoulder bag and took out two pairs of self-heating insoles. "Use them to keep warm."
The driver quickly thanked him and accepted the insole, then got out of the car after putting it in his shoe pad.
Shi Caixia also put on self-heating insoles and opened the car door.
"I'll help."
Qin Zhen miscalculated; he hadn't expected the snow outside Xiangcheng to be so thick, so he didn't send any men to follow Hua Mi out.
Even now, Shi Caixia still needs to help shovel snow.
Seeing that Shi Caixia and the driver were too busy, Hua Mi took out a pair of self-heating insoles, put them under her feet, and got out of the car.
It would have been better if she hadn't gotten out of the car; as soon as she did, she was almost blown away by the fierce, cold wind.
But my feet felt warm, so the heated insole looks like it's of very good quality.
"Mrs. Gong, don't get out of the car, get back in quickly."
In the wind and snow, Shi Caixia shouted loudly.
She and the driver, each holding a stick, were shoveling snow from under the tires.
Hua Mi walked over and handed over two entrenching tools.
