Rebirth
“Huh…huh…”
In Room 306 of the Linjiangyuan Girls Dormitory of Ancheng University, a fair and delicate girl lying on the pink and white sheets was making suppressed hissing sounds of pain in her sleep.
It was two o'clock in the afternoon. My roommate had just woken up from a nap. Hearing something strange happening, he immediately stepped on the bench and came over: "Jiang Miao? Jiang Miao! What's wrong with you?"
"Ah——" Jiang Miao sat up suddenly, startling the students sitting on the chairs: "What's wrong? Did you have a nightmare?"
Jiang Miao's eyes were filled with white, and after a while, the colors slowly returned to normal.
The small and quiet dormitory environment, the pink and white sheets that exude a naive temperament, and my healthy body without any disease.
...What's going on?
"Hey, are you going to skip Professor Yuan's class this afternoon? I heard there's a comic convention in the south of the city. If you go there, can you help me get two limited edition figures, hehe?" The roommate's voice came from far away, hazy, vague and clear.
Comic convention...figures?
The unfamiliar words in Jiang Miao's memory gradually awakened her memories. After a moment of hesitation, she frantically searched around for her phone, accidentally pulling down her waist-length hair in the process. Finally, she found the long-lost smartphone under the pillow.
April 28, 20xx.
There are less than 3 months left until Doomsday.
Seeing that Jiang Miao ignored her, her roommate Bai Tian was a little unhappy. Who among those who could study business administration didn't have three or two assets at home? Her family also ran a chain store, but unlike this unlucky guy whose parents had both passed away and all the family assets were in her hands, she was not as generous as him.
"I'm leaving." Bai Tian curled her lips and left the dormitory.
The dormitory is a four-person room. Jiang Miao's home is not too far from the school, but her psychologist suggested that she keep communicating more with friends and classmates of the same age after her parents passed away to avoid becoming autistic and developing a shunning attitude.
Jiang Miao glanced at his delicate wrists and black hair, then fell backwards on the bed as if exhausted.
After eight years of struggling to survive in the apocalypse, she was really too tired - wait, Jiang Miao touched the imperial green pendant on her chest, turned over and bit her finger without frowning.
When she was injured in the second year of Doomsday, her bloody fingers accidentally touched this heirloom and she discovered that there was an infinite space where time stood still hidden here.
She was not expected to survive the second year, but she managed to slowly store up supplies in this space and survived extreme heat, extreme cold, plague, acid rain, etc. However, she was ultimately unable to escape the disaster that befell all of humanity - nuclear radiation.
Watching the blood on the jade pendant gradually disappear, Jiang Miao choked with excitement. He closed his eyes and concentrated, and immediately sensed that extremely huge space!
The slight sense of fatigue between her brows disappeared completely. Since God gave her a chance to start over, she must live up to expectations and live well! Live forever!
Time waits for no one.
Jiang Miao got out of bed, took out his iPad, and prepared to make a stockpile list. Halfway through, he thought that it would be too troublesome and too little time to collect all the food, clothing, housing and transportation, so he simply called Cheng Shangqing.
"Mr. Jiang."
"Uncle Cheng, I remember if there is a large supermarket under the company's name."
"Yes, in the new district. However, although many houses have been built in the new district in the past two years, the occupancy rate is not high, so it has been losing money."
Jiang Miao put on his Bluetooth headset, got up and packed up while saying, "Put this supermarket under my name and let me manage it. You can handle the remaining shares yourself. It would be best if you sell them all within half a month. I need cash."
"What did you say?" President Cheng frowned and disagreed, "Do you know that your eldest aunt, second uncle and youngest uncle have been eyeing your shares since your parents passed away last year! If your parents hadn't made a will long ago, you would have been eaten up by them by now! Now you don't guard against it, and you are taking the initiative to sell it!"
Jiang Miao softened his tone and appealed to his feelings and reason: "Uncle Cheng, starting a business is easy but maintaining it is difficult. I know this clearly. Instead of using my power to restrict □□'s development, I would rather delegate power to other people in the family and let them create more brilliance. This is not my ambition."
"..." Cheng Qingshang was just a Zhuge Liang who was entrusted with the care of the young master in Baidi City. He couldn't stand the young master retreating without a fight.
"Okay, I'll go over there and test the waters first. Let me make it clear that your elders are not good people. If they know you are planning to sell your shares, they will definitely take a few pounds of meat from you."
Jiang Miao closed his eyes and made a rough estimate, then said, "Two billion, Uncle Cheng, I only want two billion and the supermarkets in the new district. If you can get more, the rest will be yours."
Jiang Miao hurriedly left the school and drove back to the old house. In the yard, several servants were chatting and basking in the sun on the garden lounge chairs. There was also an exquisite English afternoon tea on the small coffee table, which was very comfortable. Jiang Miao's face immediately turned cold when he saw this cuckoo occupying the magpie's nest.
When the end of the world came in her previous life, she ran home from school with great difficulty. However, the housekeeper, servants, gardener, driver and cook regarded her as the master. They didn't even open the door for her and she had to beg for mercy outside. In the end, they gave her five kilograms of rice and said that this was the end of their fate.
Now she has no intention of staying in this manor any longer. She wants to see what will happen to these people without the protection of the fortress.
Jiang Miao's sudden appearance obviously frightened several people in the yard. They stood up tremblingly: "Miss."
She said in a cold tone: "Where is Steward Lin?"
The older one quickly replied, "Butler Lin is in the study."
"Yeah." Jiang Miao ignored these small fry and walked quickly to the study. When he pushed the door open, he saw Butler Lin sitting upright in the place where Jiang's father used to handle official business, acting as if he was the head of the family.
"Butler Lin."
There was a sudden sound of the door opening. Steward Lin frowned and was about to scold someone for being so ignorant, when he saw the eldest lady leaning against the door with a fake smile on her face.
"Miss!" Butler Lin cursed inwardly. No one reminded him. He stood up hurriedly and explained, "I saw that the master's study was a little dirty, so I came in to clean it up. You know that the study is an important place, and I don't feel comfortable if someone else comes to clean it."
"Stop talking nonsense." After returning from Doomsday, Jiang Miao is no longer the ignorant girl whose parents died just after she became an adult. "Call everyone in the family to the living room. I have something to tell you."
Butler Lin has always been able to control this young lady who is not very worldly-wise and is never afraid of her, but today, for some reason, the young lady looked cold and seemed like someone who is not easy to mess with.
"Yes, I'll call them over right away."
Ten minutes later, everyone arrived.
Jiang Miao sat in the living room and asked Mr. Cheng to send an employee from the Finance Department to settle their wages and then fire them all.
