At six o'clock in the morning, Wang Feifei woke up from the cold. She saw that the room temperature was only 18 degrees Celsius. She had only covered herself with a thin blanket before going to bed, and now she felt icy cold all over.
She went to the closet, grabbed a thin blanket, wrapped herself in it, and crawled into bed. It was much warmer now, but she was no longer sleepy.
Let me check my phone for a while and see if there's anything unusual.
On June 27, the highest temperature was 20 degrees Celsius and the lowest temperature was 16 degrees Celsius. When she saw this, she was shocked. Was the temperature dropping so quickly?
The weather forecast says a cold front is coming. It rained all night last night, and the temperature dropped sharply. The temperature will continue to drop in the next few days.
"That's strange. Did the insulation in my house fail? With strong insulation, the room temperature should be constant. How come the room temperature dropped overnight?"
She was puzzled: "Is something wrong? No, get up and check it out."
Wang Feifei put on a nightgown and got up. She looked around and then noticed that the living room's French windows were wide open and hadn't been closed all night.
"Xiao Liu came over unexpectedly last night, and we forgot to close the window. No wonder the room temperature dropped so quickly."
Wang Feifei walked over and closed the window. Just then, she saw a glimmer of light in the distance outside the window.
This is very unusual, as there have never been any other residents in the East District besides myself.
Upon closer inspection, I saw that there was a light on in one of the apartments in that building, which was more than 50 meters away. Judging from the location, it was probably on the twelfth floor or so, and it seemed to be a large apartment.
Now, in addition to the eight households in the west section, there is one more household in the east section. Including myself, there are about ten households in the whole community.
Wang Feifei was a little worried: "Now two households have moved into the East District, and they are not far from each other. I'm afraid we will have to deal with each other in the future."
Wang Feifei realized that there were still a lot of supplies and food to move, and it would be difficult to completely avoid her neighbors, so she decided to wait and see.
She drew the curtains, crawled back into bed, and suddenly became curious about her new neighbor: "Let's see if we can find any useful information in the residents' group chat."
She had joined the community group several days ago, but she had been busy with Xu Hui's case and hadn't checked the group messages for a long time.
After scrolling through the group chat history for a long time, I finally saw that this new resident had joined the group the day before yesterday. His online name was "Romantic Flight," and judging from the name, he was probably not young.
Sure enough, Wang Feifei learned the general situation through her WeChat Moments:
This "Romantic and Elegant" woman is probably around fifty years old, with slightly wavy perm hair, a slightly plump figure, and an outgoing and showy personality.
Her WeChat Moments are mostly filled with posts about travel, food, and handbags, as if she's trying hard to create an upper-class atmosphere.
Her most recent trip was a cruise to Japan, accompanied by a man in his thirties who appeared to be her son.
The eight households in the West District are relatively easygoing. Most of the chat content in the group is about things like borrowing medicine today or two mothers making plans to go out tomorrow.
However, since "Romantic Flight" joined, the atmosphere in the group has started to change. She is a high-profile person and always speaks with a sense of superiority.
As soon as she joined the group, she complained about how terrible the community's greenery was, asking how anyone could tolerate such an environment. She encouraged the neighbors to raise funds to establish a maintenance fund and improve the community.
He adopted the demeanor of a manager.
Fortunately, her neighbors didn't pay much attention to her, so she couldn't cause any trouble for the time being.
"It's best to avoid contact with this kind of person as much as possible," Wang Feifei thought to herself.
Compared to her neighbors, Wang Feifei had something more urgent to do.
Wang Feifei was a little worried. The temperature had reached the warning line. Based on the timing of the blizzard in her previous life, there were only eight days left until the apocalypse.
Preparing everything in eight days is a challenge.
Moreover, given the current rate of temperature drop, she's a little worried that the apocalypse might come sooner than expected, so it's time to start ordering some foods that need to be frozen.
If the current rate of cooling continues, the temperature may drop below 10 degrees Celsius the day after tomorrow.
Wang Feifei opened her laptop to check what other items needed to be prepared urgently:
Supplies already on their way include: various medicines, babysitting robots, various vegetable seedlings, cat food, cat litter, raw meat and bones, etc.
Supplies that can be prepared in the near future: sausages and other cured meat products, various pre-cooked dishes, various snacks, etc.
Finally, there are meat products that need to be frozen. These can be purchased in bulk once the weather gets colder...
Chu Xiang woke up at eight o'clock in the morning and found that he had fallen asleep on the sofa last night, and Pan Xin had not returned home all night.
After a night of calm, he felt a little regretful. He should try his best to keep Pan Xin until Wang Feifei was found.
If Pan Xin leaves too, he still has five million in debt to pay off, and he'll probably have to go back to nightclubs to make money. Not only can Pan Xin not leave, but he also needs to find Wang Feifei as soon as possible.
The only way to completely resolve the current problem is to find her, coax her to forgive you, and trick her into giving you money to pay off the debt.
Chu Xiang was quite confident about this. He believed that Wang Feifei must have known the truth to be so ruthless. He thought that as long as he humbled himself and apologized properly, he should still have a chance.
Before finding Wang Feifei, let's keep Pan Xin calm first.
Thinking of this, he quickly made a phone call.
Pan Xin had just fallen asleep when she was woken up by a phone call. When she saw it was Chu Xiang, she was immediately startled awake.
She barely slept a wink last night, constantly thinking about Xu Huan. His younger self and his more mature self were intertwined in her mind, impossible to shake off. In the heat of the moment, she even fantasized that Xu Huan was lying right beside her…
When Chu Xiang couldn't get through on the phone, he had no choice but to send a message in a humble tone:
"Xin Xin, I'm sorry. I was in a terrible mood yesterday and lost a lot of blood. I couldn't control my emotions. I'm really sorry."
"It's all my fault that you didn't come home all night. Please forgive me. I promise I'll treat you well."
Pan Xin sneered after reading it. He really couldn't change his sycophantic nature. He had only been gone for one night and he was already begging her for help.
Pan Xin, her sense of superiority restored, forgot the humiliation of being beaten yesterday and subconsciously began to find reasons for returning to Chu Xiang's side:
"Although I despise Chu Xiang, I have no choice but to go to Chu Xiang's place until I find another job."
"Furthermore, we can use Chu Xiang to take him to the police station to close the case, and then we'll have a chance to get close to Xu Huan."
"We must take down Xu Huan this time!"
Pan Xin tidied herself up and went home with light steps.
It was almost noon when she got home. Strange, why wasn't Chu Xiang home?
Chu Xiang was crouching in a secluded spot near the entrance of the supermarket in the residential area, intending to follow a man.
He held the address the police had given him last time; the person who attacked him at the property was in the supermarket.
He didn't believe the police's explanation: "It was an accident, they shot the wrong person."
Chu Xiang was certain that this man was related to Wang Feifei, so he asked the police for the man's address and phone number.
To find Wang Feifei, let's start with him...
