The man called "Director Xie" glanced at Jiang Hai, frowned and said, "It's Old Jiang, I didn't expect you to be here too... It's just right, can you help me arrange a single room for me?"
Director Xie's tone was condescending, as if he was ordering his subordinates. But Jiang Hai was not annoyed. Instead, he put on a flattering smile and replied, "Director Xie, we really can't arrange a single room for you right now. There are too many people! Almost all of them are full!"
Seeing Director Xie's face becoming increasingly ugly, Jiang Hai said again: "But I have chosen a room with a good environment for you and your wife. There are not many people here. I will take you to have a look! If you are not satisfied after seeing it, I will help you change to another one!"
After hearing what Jiang Hai said, Director Xie knew that a single room was impossible, so he could only walk down the stairs Jiang Hai provided - after all, he had no other choice now, he couldn't really go home and freeze!
Seeing Director Xie leaving with his female companion and Jiang Hai, Xia Shige walked up to Xia Huiyin and asked her, "Mom, who were those two weirdos just now?"
Xia Huiyin shook her head and replied, "I don't know them either. They are from 1704 and just came here today."
Xia Shige was stunned when he heard this - 1704?
Xia Shige had an impression of this 1704, as she was the one who went to notify the 17th floor.
But Xia Shige remembered that when she went to 1704 to inform them of the shelter, the people in 1704 said they did not need to go to the shelter and did not need supplies.
I didn’t expect them to come here again today… Is it because they ran out of supplies?
Just when Xia Shige was puzzled, Xia Huiyin whispered, "Your third uncle and his family of three are here too. They live in Room 2306 now."
Hearing Xia Huiyin mention Xia Guozhang's family of three, Xia Shige couldn't help but roll his eyes——
She didn't want to hear a single word about this family of three now!
She doesn't care at all about the life or death of this family of three!
Xia Shige immediately changed the subject and asked, "Mom, why are you here alone? Where are my uncle, Uncle Lin, and Brother Lin?"
Xia Huiyin smiled and replied, "They went to move the rice. The pot is ready. We are preparing to cook porridge!"
Tomorrow is New Year's Day, and we all unanimously decided to use the rice distributed by the government to cook porridge so that the owners who came to take refuge can have something good to eat!
Upon hearing this, Xia Shige rolled up his sleeves and prepared to help!

On the other side, Xie Xiangjun and Zhuo Yiyi were placed by Jiang Hai in the second bedroom of 2305.
As soon as she entered the room, Zhuo Yiyi twitched her nose and sniffed the air - although there was still a peculiar smell, it was much better than the previous room and was barely acceptable.
So Zhuo Yiyi curled her lips and whispered, "Come on, just live here..."
Xie Xiangjun looked around and found that there were only a few young people living in this room, and it looked relatively clean. So he nodded reluctantly and said, "Okay, let's live here for now."
Seeing that Xie Xiangjun and Zhuo Yiyi were quite satisfied with the room, Jiang Hai felt relieved.
He rubbed his hands, leaned over and whispered in Xie Xiangjun's ear: "Director Xie, I live in the master bedroom of 2306 next door. If you have any questions, just come and tell me."
Xie Xiangjun nodded when he heard this, then he waved his hand and let Jiang Hai leave.
After Jiang Hai left, Zhuo Yiyi looked around and found that the only empty space in the room was the corner behind the door, but that was the place farthest from the fire and also the place with the lowest temperature.
