"We're in the same school and we're in a relationship for now."
Xihe casually told Zhou Yan about what he had done while being snowed in on the mountain, then stood up with some snacks in his arms: "Mom, it's going to snow soon, let's go up."
Tan's mother was stunned, and then she was shocked: "Didn't you say you were reviewing in the hotel? Why did you go to the mountains again? Stop right there, you little girl, you must explain this to me clearly!" She rushed after her daughter.
She was terrified. Her daughter almost died on the mountain! And the key was that he actually dared to lie to her.
At this time, in the last room on the second floor, Zhou's mother changed into her home clothes and sat on the sofa, her thin eyebrows furrowed. "Old Zhou, how do you think we should get along with the Tan family in the future? Do you agree to have two children? I think our Zhou Yan is very interested in that girl."
After calming down and realizing that her son had not done anything wrong, Zhou's mother had to start re-examining the matter between her son and the daughter of the Tan family.
"Ruoruo collected supplies on a large scale just because of a dream, and even pretended to be sick to trick the elderly people in her family into traveling thousands of miles to City Z. Our son also listened to her and not only spent one million to buy food and clothes, but he even lied to us for the first time..." This was what she was most dissatisfied with. After all, her son had never lied to anyone since he was a child.
Now he has started to deceive his parents for the sake of his girlfriend. This behavior of forgetting his mother after getting a wife makes her extremely angry.
"And the Tan family dotes on Tan Ruoruo so much. If she really marries us, our son won't have a good life."
Mother Zhou's brows became more and more dissatisfied as she spoke, and her favorable impression of Xihe dropped rapidly, and she felt very upset.
Father Zhou lay in bed with his eyes closed. "Why are you overthinking so much? Children and grandchildren will have their own blessings. The Tan family dotes on their daughter, but they're not unreasonable. Didn't Brother Tan also say that if the prophecy is false, he would return the one million to us? He's a man worth associating with."
"Besides, the little girl from the Tan family, although she acts impulsively, she has a good heart. Not only is she filial to her parents, but she also considers us."
"That means she really wants to be with our Zhou Yan. Otherwise, she could have just made up a random excuse. With how warm our Zhou Ruo is to her, how could she not believe it?"
"Besides, what if the prophecy is true? We will get a huge advantage. This is a life-saving favor."
Father Zhou crossed his legs, looking very relaxed. "So, don't worry about your son's affairs. Get along well with the Tan family. I think that girl is quite good and would make a great daughter-in-law."
Mother Zhou: “…”
Her face flushed and turned pale, feeling extremely ashamed: "Hubby, I didn't even think of this. Fortunately, you told me."
She only thought about the bad consequences and didn't even think in this direction. She was even dissatisfied with Ruo Ruo... Fortunately, she just complained in the house and didn't tell her son, otherwise she would have no place to regret it now.
“It’s snowing, it’s snowing!”
Just then, a panicked voice came from outside the window.
Mother Zhou and Father Zhou looked at each other, hurried to the window, and opened the curtains.
The sky was gloomy and the whistling cold wind stung people's skin. Suddenly, a snowflake fell and hit Grandma Tan in the face. She stared at the sky for a long time, then suddenly screamed, "It's snowing! Come in!" She called her husband and in-laws and hurried into the house.
The snow fell piece by piece, gradually getting faster and faster. In a short while, the ground, roofs, and treetops were quickly covered with a thin layer.
Zhou's father and mother's pupils shrank, and their hearts began to tremble uncontrollably: It's really snowing.
On the first floor, Grandpa Tan, his grandparents, and his father were also staring blankly at the snow, with their daughter's (granddaughter's) words echoing in their hearts: It will snow today, and then it will keep snowing until the long cold winter begins.
The land and forests were covered with ice and snow. There was no food and no electricity. Humanity fell into a difficult ice age.
Grandma Tan slapped her thigh, extremely excited. "Oh my! I knew my Ruoruo was so lucky! It's definitely going to snow! God is just giving her a warning! Ruoruo, Ruoruo, come out and see the snow!"
As soon as Xihe and Tan's mother reached the first floor, she was hurriedly pulled over. She pointed at the snow outside the window and said excitedly, "Ruoruo, your prediction is true!"
Xihe: “…”
Glancing at Zhou's father and mother who were hurrying downstairs, he whispered, "Grandma, this is the worst-case scenario. Our lives will be difficult from now on."
The end of the world has begun. Even if she has some abilities, she cannot guarantee that everyone will be alive and well. After all, this is a disaster faced by all human beings. Humans have almost no advantages and can only fight their way through.
Grandma Tan's face froze, her excitement disappeared, and she became deeply worried. Oh, right, what should I do?
"Let's go prepare some supplies now! Brother Tan, the two of us will go together, and the rest of you stay home."
Father Zhou made a prompt decision, and Father Tan nodded immediately. They must unite and make more preparations at this time.
The two of them immediately went out in the snow. Seeing this, Zhou Yan said hello to everyone and said "I'll lead the way", then hurriedly followed them out.
The others in the room grew visibly anxious: "What are we going to do?"
Mother Tan's face was full of anxiety: "No, I have to call relatives and friends and tell them to make more preparations!" She picked up the phone and went into the house.
Mother Zhou said anxiously: "Ruoruo, I have to tell the school leaders about this and notify the students!" Now that she knew about the end of the world, she couldn't just watch the teachers and children get into trouble!
The Education Bureau and the media must also be notified.
Xihe nodded: "Everyone can notify whoever you want to notify, and let them prepare as soon as possible."
She remained calm and did not stop them. After everyone returned to their rooms to inform their relatives and friends, she logged into several current apps and reiterated that the end of the world was approaching.
But she knew in her heart that this was too absurd and few people would believe it.
Sure enough, the comments were still full of "hahahaha", and netizens said: "That's right, that's right, the end of the world is coming! Everyone remember to prepare."
She was just laughing and joking, and her words were all playful. No one believed her at all. Some netizens even left righteous comments: "The Internet is not a lawless place. I hope everyone will be careful with their words and not stir up emotions and cause panic among the people."
Xihe curled her lips and turned off her phone. She had done what she should do anyway, and there was nothing she could do if others didn't believe her.
Sure enough, after a while, everyone who had hurried into the house came out with sullen faces, their brows knitted tightly together: "I've tried to persuade them, but no one believed me. They even said I was superstitious!"
Grandma Tan was furious and rolled her eyes, saying, "What a bunch of unlucky people!"
Grandpa Tan couldn't stand her words and frowned, saying, "You better keep your mouth shut." He paused and said, "We told them out of kindness. There's nothing we can do if they don't believe us. We have a clear conscience."
He originally wanted to do good deeds for his granddaughter. After all, to get such a great opportunity, he must pay something. But no one listened. Alas.
Xihe looked at Zhou's mother, who also smiled bitterly and shook her head: "The principal doesn't believe me."
The principal even warned her earnestly: As a teacher, you must set an example, not just follow the crowd and engage in feudal superstitions.
