Chapter 174 Extreme Cold. Building Defense
Tang Xiao was infected by Yin Tianlin and also drooped his eyelids and looked unhappy. Li Rong was even more pale and closed his eyes to rest.
Well, it was just their bad luck that they offended a sect, and those people were a bit extreme.
Huo Sisi suddenly said, "We used to compete in wealth, status, and reputation, but now we compete to see who can live longer. I can win the first place among tens of millions of candidates, get the first job among many interviewees with prominent family backgrounds, and win the China News Award. I don't believe that I can't live longer than those who are defeated by me in the end times.
Don't be sad about the passing of time. It would be shameful if one day you found out that those people you used to look down on are living better than you. "
Makes sense!!!
Chu An gave her a thumbs up in his heart.
"I also call on fellow women to unite, protect themselves, and boycott all men in the world."
The first few sentences sounded quite inspiring, but the last sentence was a bit off track.
Yin Tianlin was about to cry, "Sisi, I swear. I absolutely do not look down on women. My love for you comes from the bottom of my heart. I don't want to possess you or desecrate you. I want to accompany you and protect you."
Huo Sisi snorted coldly, "Who knows? No man is a good person."
After saying that, he turned around and went back to the house, and the door was closed loudly.
Yin Tianlin looked at Chu An for help, but Chu An spread out her hands. She was powerless. This could be considered ptSd, which was difficult to cure.
"What Sisi said before is right. Don't be too pessimistic. We have survived the incidents at the Import Supermarket, Nanshan Villa, and the police station."
Hey, why didn't her mouth come together today? It's a bit difficult to comfort people!!!
Chu An hurriedly said goodbye to 1112 and went home to have lunch. Lao Li asked them to go downstairs for a meeting.
People in the building are now on the verge of a fight over whether or not to hand over grain. There is really no other way, so Liu Cheng calls for another vote.
Chu An asked Gu Ye to go in her place. 1112 did not go down completely, Yin Tianlin represented Li Rong and Huo Sisi, and Tang Xiao represented himself.
The meeting was held at the entrance and exit of Building A. An open space had been cleared and a temporary tent had been erected with curtains, which could barely block the wind and snow.
There was only one table in the tent, and everyone was standing there, covered tightly with their clothes on.
The three of them saw that the place was full, so they stopped at the door. Even so, the people around the door still automatically moved away, and it was as if there was a vacuum around the three of them...
"He really thinks he's a big shot and still needs to be treated by others." Someone muttered.
"Shut up, it's enough that they are willing to come down to help us through this difficult time. What right do you have to complain?"
"That's right, they came down to help us."
"You...you forgot how they bullied us?"
"Hey - don't say that. They never came down to harass us. It was you who went up to cause trouble for them and asked for trouble."
"If I were on the 11th floor and wanted to kill someone, you guys are going too far."
"Okay, stop talking." Ouyang let them quarrel for a while so that Yin Tianlin and the others could hear. There were also people downstairs who could distinguish right from wrong, so he asked them to shut up at the right time. "Once everyone is here, we'll start voting. It's cold outside, so we won't delay you for too long."
Led by Ouyang, other building committee members stood on both sides of the table.
Liu Cheng put his hands into his sleeves and reminded, "Don't cause trouble today. If anyone affects the voting results and causes Building A to fall into crisis, that person will be the sinner of Building A. I don't need to say anything, everyone can drown you with a mouthful of spit."
Everyone knows the insults that come with being a public enemy. If you have a bad attitude, you can be really angry to death. Thinking about it this way, the 11th floor is really awesome.
Ouyang continued, "It's very cold outside, so I'll make it short. Those who agree to pay another 50 kilograms of food will stand on Liu Cheng's side, and those who agree to fight against Xingcheng International and accept my arrangement will stand on Snow's side. Don't worry, I won't do anything that will harm your interests or put you in danger."
Li Yan was unhappy, "Building Manager, what you said doesn't seem right. Aren't we going to the negotiations to protect everyone? Are we the ones who put Building A in crisis?"
"No one has said anything about you. We are just asking everyone to vote." Snow said unhappily.
"I think this is against us." Li Yan knocked on the table with his hands, making people upset.
Liu Cheng pretended to be wronged, "Li Yan, stop talking. I am not afraid that you will not understand me, as long as I have a clear conscience. I, Liu Cheng, never do anything that makes people embarrassed."
"Brother Liu, this won't work. They are going too far."
"Li Yan, I know you are doing this for my own good. Now that everyone is here, let's listen to everyone's opinions. If the final result is that the grain is not delivered, then just consider my honor in vain. I accept it."
Li Yan, "If it's like this, who will sincerely work for the building? Even if you don't hand over the food, you should be compensated. Building Manager, I'm right, right?"
Ouyang cursed all his ancestors in his heart, but on the surface he had to appease him, "I'll remember Liu Cheng's contribution first. Now everyone's supplies are not sufficient, and we can't give anything good. Later, we will form a team to search for supplies like other buildings, and compensate Brother Liu when we find good things."
Liu Cheng forced a fake smile and held Li Yan back to stop him from talking. What these people feared most was taking out supplies, and talking too much might cause resentment.
Seeing that they were silent, Ouyang cleared his throat and said, "Then let's start lining up."
There was no suspense in this vote. The number of people behind Snow was almost twice that of Li Yan. Building A had no other ability except protecting food.
The voting was over and everyone left. When Gu Ye entered the building, he saw Liu Cheng and Li Yan talking together out of the corner of his eye and felt something was wrong.
"What's wrong?" Tang Xiao asked him.
"It's okay." Gu Ye's brows relaxed, "Let's talk about it when we get back."
The three people returned to the 11th floor and called a small meeting to convey the voting results.
Gu Ye also mentioned his concerns, "I feel that Liu Cheng is not a good person. I just heard him say that the food should be...divided."
Tang Xiao said, "I heard that when we went to Xingcheng International to discuss the matter, the other party only let Liu Cheng and Li Yan in, and the others didn't know what they said."
Gu Ye, "I have already paid 50 kilograms and I still have to pay. There must be something fishy going on."
"We have no other choice but to listen to Ouyang's instructions and see how to strengthen our defenses." Yin Tianlin finally decided, "Let's wait and see what happens."
Gu Ye returned home and told Chu An everything in detail.
Chu An did not express his opinion. It would soon be known whether Liu Cheng was up to something or not.
Before sunset, Ouyang and his men sealed up the front and back windows on the fifth and sixth floors and the rear window on the seventh floor, leaving only the front window on the seventh floor as an entrance, which was half sealed with wooden strips, leaving a gap for one person to pass through.
Finally, two movable iron railings were installed in the gap, which could be disassembled from the inside but could never be opened from the outside. No matter how thin an adult is, he cannot fit into the gap in the railings.
Finally, all the windows above the sixth floor were locked.
