In an ordinary house in the southern suburbs of City A, a handsome young man dressed in black sat in front of the television. His eyes were as sharp as an eagle's, staring intently at the screen, as if trying to see through it to the whole world.
"Typhoon Eye, it seems it's finally here." He casually tossed the remote control he was holding onto the coffee table.
"Squeak!" The door behind him was pushed open from the outside, and a burly, down-on-his-luck middle-aged man walked in. He was wearing brown work pants and a gray vest, with thick eyebrows, big eyes, a stubble beard, and a scar on his chin.
"Mr. Xiao, the matter has been taken care of!" he said respectfully.
"Okay! I understand. Have all the items been put in the warehouse?" Xiao Jingchen asked.
Long Fei looked at the exceptionally handsome young man in front of him. Although his eyes and brows still showed signs of immaturity, he gave off an inexplicable sense of pressure.
"Everything is already in place, but Mr. Xiao, is it really okay for us to rob Xinyuan Group's goods?" Long Fei asked somewhat uneasily.
He knew about Xinyuan Group's methods. If it weren't for Mr. Xiao, he probably wouldn't be alive now, having offended Xinyuan Group.
"I know what I'm doing. You just need to get things done."
"Yes!" Long Fei stopped questioning, closed the door and left. Since Mr. Xiao said there was no problem, then there must be no problem. Even if there was a problem, he was willing to live and die with Mr. Xiao. From the day Mr. Xiao saved him, he swore that his life belonged to Mr. Xiao.
After Long Fei left, Xiao Jingchen took out his phone from his pocket, looked at Ye Ning's photo on the phone, and a gentle smile appeared on his lips.
"Ye Ning, don't worry, this time, I will definitely protect you."
Meanwhile, Ye Ning was stockpiling the last batch of goods before the apocalypse.
Since there was still plenty of space left, Ye Ning ordered food for about a hundred more tables at the most expensive restaurant in City A.
If any of the restaurants she ate at with her parents when she was a child are still open, her family will order 500 portions.
She bought over a thousand boxes of instant noodles, and also added two hundred servings of each of the desserts she used to love.
I added dozens of extra boxes of all the snacks, candied fruits, dried fruits, and roasted nuts that I liked to eat in my past life.
After enduring the torment of hunger, only a full stomach of food can provide a sense of security.
In addition, Ye Ning ordered ten replacement generators, a truckload of batteries, as well as candles, matches, and flashlights.
We also ordered several truckloads of gas cylinders.
Hundreds of boxes of glowing toys, remote-controlled cars, and toy airplanes—these things might come in handy at a crucial moment.
With the extreme cold approaching, cars were definitely not safe to drive, so Ye Ning ordered several snowmobiles and sleds.
There happened to be a winter supplies expo these past few days, and Ye Ning managed to buy everything she needed.
Now that we've bought a sled, we can't be without a sled dog. Let's take Da Huang to pick one out in a couple of days.
There were indeed many good things at the expo: special frostbite cream, cold-proof gloves, various fur hats and coats, all kinds of insulated water bottles, thermometers, and even snowplows.
Ye Ning buys anything she thinks she can use, even two snowplows.
In addition, there was another supply that Ye Ning hadn't thought of before: strong liquor, which was perfect for warming up in the freezing cold.
The high-quality agave and lemon vines cleared out the entire inventory, leaving the sales staff speechless.
After leaving the expo, Ye Ning went to Gao Feng's warehouse and put his latest order of fuel into his spatial storage, along with a warehouse full of living supplies and various medicines.
"Have you encountered any inconveniences while staying here recently?" Ye Ning asked, noting that there were still a few days left to make some more adjustments.
"There's nothing inconvenient, everything's fine. It's just that there's no kitchen, so cooking isn't very convenient." Eating out for a day or two is fine, but he's worried about Xiaomin's health if she eats out regularly.
It's really not easy for Gao Feng to be both a father and a mother to Xiao Min. He takes care of all of Xiao Min's daily life.
Ye Ning hadn't considered cooking when designing the house, but she couldn't very well tell Gao Feng that the apocalypse was coming soon and she wouldn't have many opportunities to cook anymore.
Since Gao Feng brought it up, Ye Ning decided to grant his wish. "In that case, let's hire a construction team to build one!"
"By the way, get another batch of goods in the next couple of days. Fill the large warehouse in the south with timber and coal, and also pile them up along the outer wall. Remember, the more the better."
"The large warehouse to the north is filled with daily necessities, as well as food, fast food, and staple foods, the more the better."
"Put more fruits and vegetables in the small icebox in the middle."
Ye Ning explained everything one by one.
"Have you brought back Xiaomin's medicine?" Ye Ning asked.
"We've already brought it back," Gao Feng nodded, almost stunned when he first saw that huge bag of medicine.
"You must stay here around the clock for the next few days. If you need to go out in any way, just call me."
"Yes!" Gao Feng nodded.
Ye Ning wanted to say a few more words when the phone suddenly rang. It was the landscaping company.
"Hello Ms. Ye, all the trees in your yard have been dug up. As per your request, we tried our best not to damage their original root systems to ensure their survival rate after transplantation. Do you have time to come and inspect them now?"
"I'm coming right now."
