Chapter 148 Sled Caravan



The sleds continued to traverse the snow-covered world, their wheels churning up layers of snowflakes and making a soft, rustling sound.

The extreme cold outside, with temperatures dropping to -70 degrees Celsius, is enough to send chills down your spine just thinking about it.

Inside the car, thanks to the heating system, it was much more comfortable, at least the temperature could be kept above zero degrees Celsius.

At this moment, Qiao Meng felt hot all over, her face turned red, and a fine sweat appeared on her forehead.

Chen Yu's request to meet her parents came as a complete surprise, catching her completely off guard.

She is a traditional girl. Many people have pursued her since she was a child, but she has never easily agreed to date anyone. She has no dating experience, let alone bringing a boy home to meet her parents.

In her mind, she should date a couple for at least three to five years and get her parents' approval before considering bringing the girl home to meet them.

Who knew Chen Yu would be so direct, making such an embarrassing request before even confirming their relationship?

Normally, she should have refused on the spot.

But she didn't know what had gotten into her; she had inexplicably agreed to Chen Yu's offer. This left her with incredibly complex feelings—a mix of trepidation, anticipation, and sweetness. It was as if a pebble had been thrown into her heart, creating ripples that lingered for a long time.

Chen Yu had no idea about the chaotic thoughts in Qiao Meng's mind; he remained focused on driving the sled.

Meanwhile, he was pondering whether to switch to another mode of transportation.

Although the sled is good in terms of both driving feel and speed, it is too small. It is fine for short-distance transportation, but this time they are going to travel thousands of kilometers to several large cities scattered throughout Great Xia.

This is a long journey, and we need to consider not only speed and driving experience, but also, more importantly, passenger comfort and convenience.

His alternate dimension does have fighter jets, which fly incredibly fast; even reaching Kyoto wouldn't take more than two hours.

But this thing is great in every way, except it's too high-profile.

In this chaotic apocalypse, it's best to keep a low profile to avoid being attacked by the crowd.

After careful consideration, Chen Yu made up his mind. He decided to use land transportation, which would not only avoid attracting too much attention, but also allow him to collect supplies at any time.

After all, this extreme cold disaster came too suddenly, and many of the production materials from before are still buried in the snow, so we can't let them go to waste.

Thinking of this, Chen Yu suddenly slammed on the brakes.

Lin Lele and Qiao Meng were startled by the sudden stop, jolting them out of their thoughts.

…………

An hour later, the three of them changed into a super luxurious RV.

This RV was custom-made by Chen Yu from a specialized manufacturer before the extreme cold disaster struck. It is 15 meters long, 4.2 meters high, and 2.6 meters wide, with an interior space of 30 square meters.

Includes a bathroom with underfloor heating, a fully equipped kitchen, a dining room, a living room, and two bedrooms, making the most of every inch of space.

Moreover, as it was a custom-made model by Chen Yu, this RV was also equipped with snow driving capabilities and passed the test of operating at temperatures as low as -90 degrees Celsius.

At the same time, at Chen Yu's request, the vehicle's exterior was replaced with bulletproof material to cope with various unsafe factors that might be encountered in the apocalypse.

The windows are made of high-tech bulletproof and anti-fog glass, which can resist external impacts and maintain a clear view inside the car, preventing fogging due to extreme cold weather.

The vehicle's power system is also very powerful, with a top speed of 150 kilometers per hour and a range of 4,000 kilometers without refueling.

It was practically a mobile fortress in the apocalypse, leaving Lin Lele and Qiao Meng completely stunned.

"Sir, you're incredibly lucky! You managed to find such a luxury car in the wild!" Lin Lele exclaimed, looking at Chen Yu with a mixture of envy and disbelief.

After Chen Yu parked the car, he simply told her and Qiao Meng to wait there, and that he would be right back.

She didn't care about it.

She thought Chen Yu had just gone to take a dump, since he had parked the car so quickly, it was obvious he was in a hurry.

However, she didn't expect that when Chen Yu returned, he would drive such a huge vehicle. This made her feel that Chen Yu's luck was simply incredible. No wonder Chen Yu was able to become a billionaire before the natural disaster.

"Lucky? If you're lucky, why don't you go and pick up a car for me?" Chen Yu said irritably.

The car was naturally taken from his alternate dimension. In order not to arouse Lin Lele and Qiao Meng's suspicion, he even spent more than half an hour faking the scene of him hiding the car.

If Lin Lele said that, wouldn't it make it seem like all his efforts were in vain?

"Silly, this must be a well-thought-out arrangement made in advance by Mr. Chen Yu." Qiao Meng said with a serious expression.

"Hmm, she's teachable." Chen Yu looked at Qiao Meng with admiration.

Then, he looked at Lin Lele with disdain and said, "You can't make a living off a piece of wood."

Upon hearing this, Lin Lele immediately pouted, looking sullen.

"Wow! Mr. Chen Yu, you've really thought of everything! There are still ingredients in the refrigerator!" Qiao Meng opened the refrigerator by chance and was stunned by what she saw inside.

Inside, all sorts of food were neatly arranged, from fresh vegetables and fruits to frozen meats, and there were even a few unopened bottles of mineral water.

However, these ingredients didn't look like they had been stored in extremely cold temperatures for half a month. Instead, they looked like they had just been picked from the ground, and even the bottles of mineral water were still liquid.

This puzzled Qiao Meng quite a bit.

Chen Yu also noticed the doubt on Qiao Meng's face and couldn't help but feel a chill in his heart. He had been careless! It seems that not everyone is as easily fooled as Lin Lele.

He coughed lightly, somewhat embarrassed, and was about to make an excuse.

Unexpectedly, Qiao Meng changed the subject and said, "Are you hungry? I'll make you something to eat."

Upon hearing this, Chen Yu raised an eyebrow and asked in surprise, "You can cook?"

"Hehe, of course. Although I'm usually busy with work, I also cook for myself sometimes and make some simple home-style dishes," Qiao Meng replied with a smile, her eyes sparkling with confidence. "Then I'll go get busy."

As she spoke, she had already selected the ingredients from the refrigerator and turned to go into the kitchen.

"Tsk tsk tsk~! Look, now that's what you call a lady from a respectable family." Chen Yu exclaimed.

Then, with a look of disdain, she said to Lin Lele, "Unlike you, you can't even cook instant noodles properly, yet you have the nerve to call yourself a member of a highly educated family."

Lin Lele remained unmoved, raised her head, and said arrogantly, "A gentleman keeps away from the kitchen."

Chen Yu shook his head helplessly. He was too lazy to explain to Lin Lele that "a gentleman keeps away from the kitchen" did not mean "a gentleman should stay away from the kitchen".

The original meaning of this statement is to express that a virtuous person should have a compassionate heart and stay away from scenes of killing, which is a manifestation of respect for life and benevolence.
