That evening, the rainfall continued to soar, repeatedly exceeding the water level, and various areas of Wancheng were successively submerged.
The municipal government organized the evacuation of personnel overnight and relocated them to various universities and stadiums.
Even so, many homes were still flooded, and some people were even swept away by the rapids.
In the latter half of the night, social media platforms were abuzz with discussions about the torrential rain.
"I was having a late-night snack when the water rushed into my house. In less than half an hour, the whole house was flooded. If I hadn't run fast, I probably would have been swept out sideways."
"That was close, bro. How are you doing now?"
"We've been put into a hotel now, and there's no problem for the time being, but I see that the rain is getting heavier and heavier. If it keeps going like this, I'm afraid even the second floor will be flooded."
"Brother, my house is on the second floor, and it's already flooded. We're moving things upstairs!"
"My God, it's only late at night, and the weather forecast says this rain will last for 15 days. If it's two floors a night, then 15 days would mean 30 floors?"
The comment section was silent for a long time before someone finally spoke up timidly.
"This... could it be the end of the world?"
No one answered, because the rain outside was getting heavier, and everyone was worried.
The Qin family villa, because it was built on a mountain, was not flooded.
As Qin Xiaoru scrolled through the videos, a chill ran through her.
"Dad, Mom, is the world going to end?"
She suddenly thought of Qin Su: "A few days ago, I saw Qin Su buy a lot of things. She must know something, so she prepared in advance."
Looking at the torrential rain outside, Shi Fang also couldn't sleep all night. Although her family was safe and had enough food, she was still very worried about the flooded Wancheng.
"What did you say? Qin Su hoarded supplies? How could a young girl like her have the idea of hoarding supplies?"
At this moment, Qin Shiqu suddenly widened his eyes.
"Brother Mo Bai told me that Qin Su's uncles are all powerful figures, and they must know something."
"Well, that girl knew a disaster was coming and didn't tell us!"
Shi Fang was startled: "Honey, do you think Qin Su knew disaster was coming when she signed the contract with us? She deliberately paid us a month later and then took the penalty fee from you. Was that intentional?"
Qin Shiqu couldn't sit still any longer, so he immediately picked up his phone and dialed Qin Su's number.
But after trying to call several times without success, he realized that he had been blocked.
Shi Fang and Qin Xiaoru also tried to dial, but they couldn't get through either.
"You wretched child, you wretched child!"
Qin Shiqu was so angry that he was about to smash his phone, but Shi Fang stopped him.
"Honey, my phone is broken right now, and there's nowhere to buy a new one."
Qin Shiqu put down his phone, suppressing his anger: "Once the rain stops, I'll go and settle accounts with that bastard."
At this moment, Qin Su, who was cooking at the resort, naturally didn't care about Qin Shiqu's thoughts.
The apocalypse has only just begun, and for a long time there will be nothing to do. She needs to develop some skills to cheer herself up.
In her previous life, she had no supplies, and she started going hungry not long after the torrential rain began.
So this time, her first thought was to enjoy the food as much as possible.
The first thing I learned was how to make steamed buns.
Ground pork, ground beef, ground lamb, ground Orleans chicken, ground char siu...
She ordered a whole bowl of every kind of minced meat she could think of.
Then comes kneading the dough and letting it ferment.
She definitely couldn't knead the dough herself to make so much filling.
So she called Li Tang over and asked him to arrange for everyone to knead the dough.
These veterans never expected that the first task the young lady would give them after they officially started working would be kneading dough.
Outside, the rain was pouring down; inside, the aroma of meat buns filled the air.
Qin Su's buns are ugly; each one is a different shape, and some even have their filling spilling out.
When Mo Rongguang's wife, Xu Jingzhi, saw this, she directly advised her not to keep making bags, as this skill was not suitable for her.
But Qin Su felt that she just needed more bags.
So she made over a hundred buns by herself, and without exception, not a single one was normal.
"Come, come, have some steamed buns. These were made by Miss herself."
Li Tang snatched the first basket of steamed buns and quickly stuffed them into the hands of his brothers.
Miss is such a skillful person, she probably can't handle the rotten buns. It's better if the brothers can digest these buns.
"The steamed buns made by the young lady are especially delicious!"
Li Tang swallowed the water in large gulps, then quickly gulped down several more mouthfuls, his eyes gleaming with sincerity.
Qin Su: ……
"Mmm, it's delicious and unique. Don't make these anymore, they're not suitable for you."
Huo Sijin ate the steamed bun in her hand slowly and deliberately, and said expressionlessly.
Qin Su frowned; in fact, she really wanted to try her own steamed buns.
Seeing that Huo Sijin was tearing the buns by hand, she wanted to tear off a piece to taste.
But as soon as she reached out, she saw Huo Sijin take a bite.
"Miss, this pot is ready too, come and eat."
Mo Rongguang's wife, Xu Jingzhi, is a domestic whiz. The steamed buns she makes are all the same size, plump and white, and look very appetizing.
Qin Su fell silent. It seemed she really wasn't suited to making steamed buns.
After finishing the steamed buns, it slowly got light.
The rain was still falling. Qin Su opened her phone and found that the municipal government had sent several messages.
"Rain will continue, please prepare for emergencies. Residents on lower floors, please evacuate immediately..."
"Please store electricity and water in preparation for power and water outages!"
"In the face of this disaster, we must all work together to overcome this difficult time. We are now recruiting 10,000 volunteers!"
...
The news was the same as in the previous life. At this time, everyone believed that as long as they worked together, the disaster would surely pass.
Many passionate young people rushed out to volunteer.
But what they didn't know was that less than a third of those who rushed out returned alive.
However, none of this is something she can stop. The only thing she can do now is to protect her home and the people around her.
"Miss……"
Li Tang hesitated before speaking. As a veteran, he really wanted to contribute his strength under these circumstances.
Qin Su's face was cold as she looked at their passionate expressions, her tone indifferent.
"I invited you to protect me. If you want to get out, then don't come back."
Li Tang was startled, not expecting that Qin Su, who was usually easy to talk to, would be so heartless at this moment.
"I……"
He wanted to say something more, but Qin Su just gave him a cold glance.
"Either stay or leave. Come and tell me when you've thought it through."
She brought them here because of their abilities and loyalty. But if their loyalty is mixed with other things, then they cannot be kept.
After saying that, she turned and went to the study.
Li Tang and his brothers looked at each other, unsure of what to do.
