Chapter 110 Tornado
After the couple moved into the community, they finally finished drawing the blueprints, but they were unable to send them out. That's why they did these inexplicable things.
They originally wanted to let their daughter cause trouble, and then come forward to apologize in order to make friends with Xia Xiaoman.
But when they saw Xia Xiaoman's brutal behavior, they immediately changed their plan and planned to wait until their daughter could no longer hold on, and then let her pretend to faint and go to the medical station. In this way, they could hide the drawings on their daughter and send them out without arousing other people's suspicion.
Unfortunately, the plan was disrupted by the sudden arrival of the patrol team, so they could only send their eldest son to seduce Fu Baiwei, but they didn't expect that Fu Baiwei already had a boyfriend.
"On New Year's Eve, did they come to cause trouble for me on purpose and look for an opportunity to send the drawings away?" Xia Xiaoman asked.
Fu Baiwei shook her head. "No. I heard from the property management department that the little brat was really greedy for your meat and sneaked out to steal your meat."
Xia Xiaoman: “…”
"Come to think of it, I'm quite curious. What kind of meat did you cook on New Year's Eve that could make a child cry?" Fu Baiwei looked at her with interest.
Xia Xiaoman was about to answer when a strong wind suddenly blew up, filling her mouth with sand. She spat twice and said, "Why is the wind blowing suddenly?"
Fu Baiwei half-closed her eyes and looked up at the dark night sky. "There is not even a trace of moonlight tonight. I'm afraid it's going to rain."
"It doesn't look like it's going to rain. It's usually hot and muggy before it rains." Xia Xiaoman stared at the sky with a serious expression. Over the past six months, nothing good has happened every time the weather changes, so she has to be more cautious.
The wind was getting stronger and stronger, and all the sand, dust, dirt and garbage were picked up by the wind and flew in the air.
Suddenly, Xia Xiaoman looked up at the sky with wide eyes, "What the hell! What is that?"
In the distance, a black pillar connecting heaven and earth was moving at an astonishing speed, sweeping up all kinds of debris.
"Tornado! It's a tornado, run!" Xia Xiaoman reacted and pulled Fu Baiwei and ran home.
Fu Baiwei was stunned for a moment, shook off her hand, and shouted anxiously: "My boyfriend is still at the power station! He hasn't come back yet!"
Xia Xiaoman was speechless, and pulled her arm to force her back to the house, "It's already this time and you still have a boyfriend, can you stop being so love-minded!"
"Sun Haiyun is at the power station. The people there will definitely arrange for them to take shelter. What's the point of running away now? You'll be swept away by the tornado before you find Sun Haiyun."
After being scolded by Xia Xiaoman, Fu Baiwei calmed down a little, "What should we do now? Just stay at home and don't go out?"
Xia Xiaoman thought for two seconds, then ran to the attic and said, "There's still time. Go to the roof and help me take down the solar generator and air conditioner. After we put these two things away, we'll hide in the basement and wait for the tornado to pass."
Anything in this house can be thrown away, except the generator and air conditioner, because they are the treasures that keep her life going!
Having had experience with violent demolition before, Xia Xiaoman climbed to the roof and quickly lifted up the nails with a hammer to remove the solar panels.
When removing the solar panels, she could clearly feel the wind quickly getting stronger, and it almost blew her off the building when she was removing the last two panels.
At the same time, some patrol team members were beating gongs, and some were holding loudspeakers, repeatedly telling everyone in the community that a tornado was coming, and asked everyone to hide indoors on the lower floors as much as possible and not to go out.
With the help of Fu Baiwei, the solar panels and air-conditioning outdoor unit were removed in less than ten minutes.
"Weiwei, go to the kitchen downstairs and move all the food to the basement. I'll pack the rabbits and chickens and go downstairs."
After sending Fu Baiwei away, Xia Xiaoman put the air conditioner and generator into the space, and then drove the rabbits and chickens into the cages and carried them down.
In order to deal with outsiders, she put several boxes of instant noodles, compressed biscuits and brown rice in the kitchen, and some vacuum-packed white rice, flour and other miscellaneous supplies in the basement.
After Fu Baiwei moved the kitchen items to the basement, she quickly cleared out a corner for her rabbits and chickens to keep them from being contaminated by animal feces.
After tidying up the basement, Fu Baiwei thought about the customers' electronic equipment outside the door, and ran out in the strong wind to move all the electronic equipment in.
The wind was so strong outside that some small electronic devices, such as power banks, palm-sized flashlights, and mobile phones, were blown away. Only larger and heavier appliances, such as batteries, remained in place.
Fu Baiwei ran twice in a row until the wind and sand outside were so strong that she couldn't open her eyes, so she had to give up the electrical appliances outside.
Xia Xiaoman brought down two buckets of water from upstairs. Seeing her dusty face, she asked, "Did you go out? Why are you covered in sand?"
Fu Baiwei hummed dejectedly, "I went out to rescue the electrical appliances outside, but I only brought back a few, and the rest were all blown away by the wind."
"When the tornado passes, I may have to pay a huge amount of compensation. How can I be so unlucky! Life was just getting better, but now it's like the time before liberation again."
Xia Xiaoman patted her shoulder and comforted her, "Don't be so pessimistic. Maybe after the tornado leaves, you will be able to make a fortune."
Fu Baiwei looked up at her, "What do you mean?"
"With such a big tornado, many things will be blown up into the sky. After the tornado is gone, there will definitely be a lot of supplies on the road outside for you to pick up. As long as you are quick enough, you can become rich overnight."
Fu Baiwei knew Xia Xiaoman was joking with her, so she forced a smile and said, "That only works if we can survive until the tornado leaves."
Before he finished speaking, there was a loud bang, as if something hit the wall. Fu Baiwei turned pale with fear, "Is a tornado coming? Will it blow the house away?"
Xia Xiaoman shook her head. "I don't know. Don't think too much. We are hiding in the basement. Even if a tornado comes, we will be fine."
That being said, she actually had no idea, after all, it was her first time to encounter a tornado. But they currently had no other way to go except the basement. It was a blessing in disguise, and it was a disaster that could not be avoided. If she really couldn't avoid it, the worst that could happen was death. Eighteen years later, she was still a hero!
It’s a pity. She wanted to travel around the country after graduating from university and appreciate the beautiful scenery of Xia Country.
