Chapter 2 Obtaining Infinite Space
"Muxue, what are you daydreaming about?" Her best friend Ding Manman nudged her with her elbow. "Stop daydreaming, the professor is calling your name."
"Qin Muxue! Qin Muxue! If you don't show up, you'll lose the credits for this course!"
"Professor! Professor, I'm here!" Qin Muxue raised her hands high, still a little dazed.
The professor nodded and said, "Now that everyone is here, I will begin to explain the content of the new lesson."
Qin Muxue asked Ding Manman in a low voice: "Manman, are you real?"
Three horizontal lines crossed Ding Manman's head. "Did you lose your mind after sleeping? I don't exist. Am I dead?"
Speaking of death, Qin Muxue remembered that Ding Manman died to save her. She watched her best friend die in front of her and felt extremely guilty. She was powerless to do anything at the time. Now, she also understands who is sincere and who is fake.
Qin Muxue pinched her wrist, and Ding Manman grimaced, "Why are you pinching me?"
"Does it hurt?"
"Nonsense, of course it hurts, you pinched me until I got red."
Qin Muxue looked at the red mark on her hand, touched her warm hand, and felt indescribably excited.
"Manman, I'm back!" She hugged Ding Manman and wiped all her snot and tears on her.
She, Qin Muxue, is reborn!
"Bang" a piece of chalk hit her head directly.
The old professor said dissatisfiedly: "Don't disturb others if you don't listen carefully."
The blow on her forehead hurt so much. This was not a dream, nor was it a revolving lantern! She was really reborn back to her college days.
Ding Manman was very surprised because Qin Muxue did not eat with Yan Xu today, but went to the canteen with her, and even seemed absent-minded while eating.
Little did she know that Qin Muxue was recalling the present time, "Manman, what year, month and day is it now?"
It seemed that she was really stunned by the professor's chalk and didn't even know what year or month it was.
"January 15, 2024, it's 12 noon now." Ding Manman glanced at her phone and replied.
Qin Muxue raised her head and recalled what she was doing at that time?
At that time, because her best friend Ding Manman fell in love with Yan Xu, she deliberately ignored Manman, and their friendship broke down.
But afterwards, Ding Manman still often secretly gave her snacks in an attempt to reconcile with her, but she pretended not to see it and missed out on this friendship.
There is still more than half a year before the natural disaster comes, which is plenty of time for her to make preparations.
"Good Manman, I'm really sorry for neglecting you during this period of time. I'll treat you to lunch to make amends."
"Are you rich now? Didn't your family cut off your living expenses?"
She then remembered that because of the falling out with her father, her family had stopped paying her for living expenses for several months. After checking the balance on Taobao on her phone, Qin Muxue sighed, "It looks like I can only eat steamed buns today."
"Oh, forget it, I'll treat you to a meal!" Ding Manman showed a smile.
"Manman, you are so nice."
As soon as she arrived at the cafeteria, Qin Muxue looked at the dazzling array of dishes and kept swallowing her saliva. Living in the end times, it was common to go hungry and full. There were compressed biscuits, cockroaches, and mice, all of which were delicacies.
"This, this, and this! I want them all!" Qin Muxue pointed at the beef with potatoes, tomato and eggs, and even ordered a portion of the fried meat with onions, which she usually didn't like.
There was a full plate of food, and Ding Manman watched in amazement as she ate it all.
"Why are you staring at me, Manman? Aren't you going to eat the rest?"
"Uh... yeah."
Qin Muxue immediately picked up her leftovers, poured them into her own rice bowl, and enjoyed the meal.
We can't waste any of it. How can we find such delicious food in the end times? Qin Muxue was so moved that she almost shed tears. Her stomach was filled with food.
Now, the first thing she had to do was to make a phone call and admit her mistake to her scumbag father so that she could go home and inherit his inheritance.
Her father will not live long, and this is a fact that cannot be changed. In a few days, he will be diagnosed with advanced lung cancer.
Qin Muxue's father, Qin Shou, was a playboy. Her mother was angered to death by him. Now he brought back a woman named Xu Laobanniang from somewhere, and a girl who looked similar to her, and said she was his biological daughter.
Calculating the time, the girl is a few months younger than her. Isn’t that the time when her mother was pregnant?
The scumbag dad went out to fool around and still had the nerve to bring his former mistress home legitimately. Qin Muxue was so furious that she had to quarrel with the scumbag dad and break off relations with him, which resulted in her losing her living expenses.
But now, she needs money! She needs a lot of money! It would be best if her scumbag father died quickly! He could leave all his inheritance to her!
In her previous life, it was because of her so-called backbone and face that she gave all her huge fortune to that illegitimate daughter.
In this life, she wants to take out everything that belongs to her and make that mother and daughter leave the house with nothing.
"Dad, I know I was wrong." Qin Muxue said pitifully, "I shouldn't lose my temper with Auntie. Jia Jia is my sister no matter what. I should try to accept her instead of bullying her."
The other party was silent for a while. This daughter's personality was very similar to that of his deceased first wife, stubborn, but now she came to apologize to him in a servile manner?
But after all, she was the daughter he had raised for more than 20 years. Seeing that she admitted her mistake, Qin Shou gave her a way out. "Xiaoxue, since you have admitted your mistake, I will not pursue the things you have done. Come back and have a meal with your aunt and Jiajia, apologize, and we can live in harmony as a family."
"Okay, I'll be back tonight."
Qin Muxue hung up the phone after waiting for these words. The most important thing now was to go back and grab the property. She needed money to purchase a lot of supplies to prepare for the coming of doomsday.
Qin Muxue's home is in Xuanwu City, the same city as the university. She used the dozen or so yuan left in her Yu'ebao to take a taxi and hurried back home.
After not coming back for many days, the house had changed completely. All the decorations and things that my mother liked and used when she was alive had been removed by that woman.
Jia Jia sat in front of the piano, playing the piano that she had begged her father to buy for a long time. The out-of-tune notes were particularly harsh in her ears, and she felt mixed emotions.
The table was full of food that perfectly avoided the foods she liked, but they didn't know that she was no longer picky about food after she was reborn from the apocalypse.
"Dad! I'm back!" Qin Muxue shouted loudly.
"Xiaoxue, you're back. Come sit down and eat. I asked the nanny to prepare a large table of dishes for you. You haven't been back for a long time." Xia Qiaoyun greeted Qin Muxue attentively.
Of course she could see what this stepmother was trying to do?
She looked carefully at the food on the table and found not only the food she didn't like, but also the food she would be allergic to. She did a serious investigation and found the exact answer.
Qin Muxue sat down at the table without changing her expression and started eating the baked lobster with cheese.
Qin Jia's face darkened, "Mom, look, my sister took my favorite lobster."
It turns out that this cheese baked lobster is Qin Jia’s favorite dish.
Qin Muxue ate even more happily. She was lucky that she was not eaten by the mutated lobster in the apocalypse. She was allergic to lobsters. This was her first time eating this dish and it tasted surprisingly good.
"Eat slowly. You're eating so fast. You don't look like a rich lady at all."
"Dad, I'm so sorry. You didn't give me living expenses, and I didn't have enough to eat at school. It's a rare trip back home, and I saw so many delicious foods, I couldn't help it."
Qin Shou was stunned for a moment. To be honest, it was his fault. The child's stomach always had to be filled.
Qin Shou handed her a tissue, saying that she was unruly, and began to praise Qin Jia, "Look how well-mannered Jia Jia is, why can't you learn from her? By the way, don't forget the purpose of your return today."
Qin Muxue sneered, and after a few words she began to praise Qin Jia.
When she looked up, she saw Qin Jia was also looking at her. She had long black hair, watery eyes, and a cherry mouth that was slightly pursed, looking weak and vulnerable.
Great, isn't this the standard for little white flowers?
Qin Muxue cleared her throat, "Auntie, Jiajia, I was too much before, I didn't pay attention to your feelings... I..." Before she could say the apology, she covered her throat, as if she couldn't breathe, "Dad, I feel so bad."
She fell to the ground, breathing heavily, with beads of sweat covering her forehead: "Call an ambulance quickly..."
In the hospital, Qin Muxue was lying on the hospital bed. She knew how much lobster she would have an allergic reaction after eating, and she controlled the amount precisely.
This move not only played the victim, but also showed off the stepmother's hand.
"Dad, I'm sorry for making you worry."
Qin Shou looked at Xia Qiaoyun with a hint of anger, "How come you didn't even know that your child was allergic to lobsters? You almost scared me to death just now."
No matter how useless Qin Muxue is, she is still his only daughter. Moreover, her mother left her a secret inheritance before she died. If she dies, the whereabouts of the inheritance will be unknown.
Xia Qiaoyun suffered a loss and said nothing more. She just glanced at Qin Muxue lying on the hospital bed.
Qin Jia tugged at Qin Shou's sleeve pitifully, "Dad, Mom didn't mean it. I wanted to make it for Sister, but she got allergic reactions. Don't blame Mom. Sister, next time I'll take you to a high-end restaurant and order your favorite dishes that you're allergic to, to make amends."
Qin Jia's acting was exactly the same as her mother's, and Qin Shou soon softened his heart, "Jia Jia, you are still sensible!"
Qin Muxue ignored her and suddenly sighed: "Dad, I just saw Mom. She asked me to take good care of you. I regret always quarreling with you in the past."
Qin Shou's heart began to feel heavy. "Your mother always took good care of me. Unlike your aunt, she didn't even know that you were allergic to lobsters."
Taking advantage of her illness, Qin Muxue began to complain. Even her clothes had holes in them. She mentioned it intentionally or unintentionally, "Dad, do you still remember the shares my mom left me? I'm an adult now, can they be transferred to my name?"
At the beginning, his ex-wife did hold 15% of Qin's shares. Somehow his daughter suddenly realized this and remembered it, but he had been dragging his feet and not going through the transfer procedures.
Qin Shou understood what Qin Muxue meant. He took out a card and said, "There's some money in it. Take it and spend it slowly!"
Just as she wanted, Qin Muxue showed a smile.
After getting the drip and returning home, she silently opened the long-closed storage room. Seeing that the things her mother left behind were all covered in dust, her eyes filled with tears.
"Mom, I'm back. Don't expect this mistress to have an easy life now."
She took out her mother's belongings, including an emerald necklace placed in a box that only she had the key to open.
Qin Muxue took out the small key hanging around her neck, opened the box, and looked at the huge necklace, her heart filled with nostalgia for her mother.
Tears flowed down her cheeks, one drop after another, and fell onto the jade necklace. Suddenly, the necklace began to flash with a strange blue light...
Qin Muxue suddenly felt dizzy and a dazzling light appeared in front of her eyes.
When she opened her eyes again, she found that there was an endless empty space in front of her.
When she closed her eyes again and opened them again, she was back to reality.
Qin Muxue quickly realized that the reason for all this was because the emerald left to her by her mother actually contained a huge space.
She really couldn't estimate the size of the space, but she knew that she could put a lot of things here, enough for her to stockpile food and necessary supplies.
A hint of surprise flashed across her face. She had no superpowers in her previous life, but in this one she gained space. It must be her mother in heaven blessing her.
Now, she can start stockpiling supplies.
