At eight o'clock sharp, the power supply station cut off the power on time.
Cheng Suming heard the sound of the air conditioner outdoor unit stopping, so he turned on the switch of another line. After waiting for a few seconds, the air conditioner in the room made a beeping sound and the outdoor unit started running, but it stopped again after less than ten seconds.
"What's going on?" Si Nan looked outside the living room at the air conditioner and asked.
"It's probably because the air conditioner is turned on too much, and there are also refrigerators, air humidifiers, TVs and other appliances turned on at the same time. The solar generator can't handle so many appliances." Cheng Suming took the repair tools and opened the balcony door: "I'll change the route. Don't turn on the air conditioner so much for now."
"Okay, I'll turn off everything in the room and only leave the air conditioner and humidifier in the living room and the refrigerator in the kitchen on. Is that ok?"
"It should work."
Half an hour later, Cheng Suming came into the living room, sweating all over. "It's fixed. Currently, the two generators can only power the appliances in the living room and kitchen, as well as the air conditioner on the balcony. If there is a power outage in the future, and we want to sleep in a cooler place, we will sleep on the sofa in the living room together."
The air conditioner has just been turned on, but the temperature hasn't dropped yet. The room is as hot as a steamer, making people sweat profusely.
Si Nan took out a neck-hanging fan from among the many rechargeable fans he bought yesterday and handed it to Cheng Su Ming: "As long as it's cool, we can sleep together. It doesn't matter."
Cheng Suming hung the fan around his neck and glanced at her. "You were guarding against me like a thief some time ago. Why did you come to your senses today?"
"You know everything." Si Nan smiled awkwardly: "We weren't familiar with each other some time ago, but we have been together for more than half a month. I think you are a good person, not a villain who would take advantage of others. I have self-defense weapons, so I am not afraid of you."
Cheng Suming smiled helplessly, "We have both obtained a marriage certificate, we are a legal couple, and we have a prenuptial agreement notarized by the notary office, you don't need to be so defensive against me. I said that before you voluntarily sleep with me, I will never touch you. If you don't believe me, you have to believe the evidence I give you."
Speaking of this, Si Nan's eyes flickered. The evidence Cheng Suming gave her was a blurry video from about fifteen years ago.
In the video, Cheng Suming, who was only twelve years old, dragged a boy about seven years old and threw him into a mud pit full of mud.
The boy was covered in blood, struggling weakly in the mud, and kept shouting, "Brother, don't kill me, don't kill me, I was wrong, I was wrong! I shouldn't have killed Mengmeng, I was wrong!"
Cheng Suming reached out his hand expressionlessly and pressed the boy's face into the mud, muttering to himself: "This place is far from home, no one will know if you die here. Don't call me brother, I don't have a brother like you..."
The video ends here. Judging from how blurry the video is, it must have been taken with an old mobile phone from many years ago. The pixels are not very good, but the people's faces can be seen clearly.
Cheng Suming is a surgeon who is adept at performing many large and complex surgical operations. He is very famous abroad and also well-known in China. Many patients' families who want to ask him to perform surgery are often turned away.
Such a promising and famous doctor actually did such a cruel thing when he was young. Once exposed, not only will he lose his reputation and enviable high-paying job, but he will also be visited by the police to investigate what happened and face imprisonment.
The real collapse of the end of the world will take at least five years. During these five years, the national government will continue to exist and the laws will continue to restrain the darkness in people's hearts.
Regardless of whether the end of the world has come or not, this video can restrain Cheng Su Ming. When Si Nan saw this video, his brows were tightly frowned. He couldn't understand how Cheng Su Ming, who looked gentle and polite, could do such a cruel thing when he was a child.
Cheng Suming explained at the right time: "I am the child adopted by Cheng's parents, and Cheng Qiming is their biological son. I was brought to the Cheng family when I was five years old, and Cheng Qiming showed great malice towards me. He often bullied me behind Cheng's parents' backs, leaving me covered in injuries, but Cheng's parents turned a blind eye."
"From that time on, I knew that I was just a toy of Cheng Qiming. As long as Cheng Qiming didn't play me to death, Cheng's father and mother would not help me. I should have been submissive, after all, the Cheng family, who were well-off, were much better off than the days of hunger and hunger in the welfare home. But Cheng Qiming should never have been bad at such a young age. He found a group of junior high school students who didn't study hard, seduced and raped the little daughter of the Cheng family's next-door neighbors, the Xia family, and threw her alive into a mud pit. She was found by the police three days after she died. In order to protect him, Cheng's father and mother spent a lot of money and connections to destroy the evidence and shut up the Xia family. And this beast, afterwards, boasted in front of me about the process of his seduction and rape of Mengmeng. The reason for the seduction and rape was just because Mengmeng was close to me..."
Later he exploded. On a sunny afternoon, while Cheng's father and mother were out discussing a project, he pushed Cheng Qiming down the stairs, took the mobile phone that Cheng's father and mother bought for Cheng Qiming, found a filming position in advance, dragged Cheng Qiming, with a bleeding head, to the place where Xia Mengmeng died, and pushed Cheng Qiming in.
Originally he really wanted to kill Cheng Qiming, but his abnormal behavior was discovered by the housekeeper, who sent people to look for them everywhere and rescue the dying Cheng Qiming.
He calmly showed the video on his mobile phone to Xia Mengmeng's parents. They called the police immediately, made several copies of the video, and searched for evidence again. Cheng Qiming received the punishment he deserved, and the careers of Cheng's father and mother were also affected.
In order to shut the public up, Cheng's father and mother had not dared to treat him harshly for so many years, and provided him with the best food, clothing and other necessities. However, they did not want to live with this "traitor", for fear that they would kill him if they lived together. That was why they bought him a big house in Shenxianyuan, and he lived here since he was a child.
After knowing the whole story, Si Nan expressed sympathy for Cheng Suming's experience, feeling a sense of sympathy.
They are all people who grew up with the greatest malicious harm. Their young hearts were already full of holes. It is not easy for them not to go astray and hurt others when they grow up. They have experienced all the storms in advance, and there will be no obstacles that they cannot overcome in the future.
Si Nan sighed, "You don't have anyone to worry about, so you can live a carefree life. But I'm different. I was raised by my uncle and aunt. Seeing that the high temperature continues and subsequent natural disasters continue, I want them to come to Xingcheng so that I can take care of them nearby. But I'm afraid you won't agree, and they won't want to come up."
Cheng Suming: "If you can ensure that your space will not be discovered by them, I have no objection to you bringing them to live with you."
Simon:......
There is no impenetrable wall in the world. No matter how careful you are, your true colors will always be exposed.
Previously, Cheng Suming said that she dreamed that the person who killed her was someone close to her, but he didn't know who it was because he was fully armed when he killed her, and his appearance and body shape could not be seen. But when she exposed the secret of the space, there were only a few people who were close to her, so the murderer was most likely one of them, maybe her friend, or maybe her relative.
People's hearts are hidden, and no matter how much she trusts her uncle and aunt, she cannot guarantee that their families will not take action against her.
After much thought, Si Nan decided to look for some empty houses in the same community. If he could rent two houses and install air conditioners, he wondered if they would be willing to move in.
For this reason, she went to the community property management to ask, and the answer she got was no, because the houses in the community were very popular when they were put on the market. Although there were many vacant houses, most of them were bought by wealthy people to keep idle or for their future children to live in, so there were basically no houses for rent.
She was a little discouraged, so she called her uncle and aunt, told them that she was married, wanted them to come up and play, and then tried to find a way to keep them at home.
They were both very surprised. They first asked about the man's family background and learned that he had one of the most "serious" professions that all parents in country Z were most satisfied with. Then they breathed a sigh of relief and said that she had married too hastily. Finally, they said that the weather was too hot and there were power outages everywhere. They followed her instructions and installed a solar generator that could power a small air conditioner and fan in the countryside. They also said that their family members were unwilling to live in the city because it was full of high-rise buildings and was not as cool as Zizhu Town with its mountains and water. They planned to come to see her when the temperature dropped a little so that she could live a good life with Cheng Suming.
After hanging up the phone, Si Nan was depressed. The two relatives she cared about couldn't make sense. She thought of her two good friends and called Gao Moli first. "Hey, Moli, do you have a solar generator installed at home? Do you have extra supplies?"
"You know how difficult my mother-in-law is. Before, I asked them to install solar energy, but they said that only country people use solar energy to save energy. There is everything in the city, so why use solar energy? They refused to install it. Look, there have been power outages in the past few days, and the vegetables in the refrigerator keep going bad. My mother-in-law said I was a spendthrift and asked me not to buy so many vegetables. I'm so upset now." Gao Moli sighed on the other end.
Si Nan was speechless and reminded her, "It's so hot now. How are you and the children going to survive without air conditioning after the power outage? Even if you don't have solar power, you should get a diesel generator or something to generate electricity at home. The hot weather will last for a long time. You can't always give in to your mother-in-law. You'll save money here and there and make yourself sick."
"You're right. I'll call the child's father and ask him to get a generator. No matter how economical we are, we can't let the child suffer."
"Just listen to me. Come out when you have time. I'll treat you and Sheng Youqing to Haidilao and tell you something."
"What's going on? It's so mysterious."
"You'll know when you come."
After hanging up the phone, I called Sheng Youqing and repeated the same words. Sheng Youqing muttered on the other end: "Why don't you take care of the business of my hot pot restaurant? You have to eat at Haidilao. It's expensive and noisy, and the waiter can always perform a fancy embarrassing show for you. How can it be as comfortable and relaxed as eating in our private room?"
Si Nan couldn't convince her, so he could only agree. He then turned around and called Gao Moli to inform her that the dinner venue had changed.
