Chapter 31: Enemy from the Past Life
Otherwise, if you have food but no ability to protect yourself, you will just become someone else's meal, and no matter how much food you have, it will only be prepared for others.
Returning to the house, she walked to her gym and started her previous plan to exercise for two hours every day.
After an unknown amount of time, there was another knock on the door. This time, she went to open the door calmly.
It’s just the beginning now, and there won’t be any robbery or anything like that, so she can open the door with confidence.
But in a while, such peaceful days will be gone.
"Hello--"
There was a handsome boy standing at the door. When he saw the door open, he immediately greeted her. However, his words stopped when he saw the girl in front of him who was wearing a short-sleeved shirt and sweating profusely.
He doubted himself for two seconds. Wasn't it snowing heavily these past two days? Did he remember it wrong?
Thinking of this, he took off the big cotton-padded jacket he had found at the bottom of his chest. Could it be that the snow had stopped and the weather had returned to normal?
When he was halfway through taking off his clothes, he felt a chill all over his body. He shivered, unable to bear the cold, and immediately put his clothes on as quickly as he could. Only then did he feel like he was alive again.
'There's something wrong'
Qin Xingyue frowned. This man came to her door just to show her how to take off his clothes.
"Ah, no, don't close the door, I have something to tell you!"
Seeing Qin Xingyue frowning and about to close the door, the boy hurriedly said: "I just happen to live downstairs from your house. We live upstairs and downstairs. If anything happens in the future, we can take care of each other!"
Qin Xingyue didn't say anything and her expression didn't change.
Seeing this, the boy continued: "Listen to me——"
After a pause, he said, "Can I come into your room and talk?"
Qin Xingyue looked at him with a sneer and said nothing, but the boy understood what she meant.
So he stopped talking and said directly: "I think this heavy snow is not simple, it is very different from the past. It looks like the snow will not stop in one or two days, and it may even snow for a long time. If it continues like this, something bad will happen sooner or later!"
Qin Xingyue looked at the other party with some surprise, but when she thought about it, it was not difficult to think of this. Those people who went out to buy food today might have also discovered something unusual and started making plans for the future.
"Then what"
The boy smiled and said, "If this continues, we will be trapped in this community and something bad will happen. I want to cooperate with you!"
"Even if what you said is true, why are you looking for me among so many people?"
Qin Xingyue looked at him expressionlessly, with a warning line in her heart. She never trusted anyone easily, especially some people she was not familiar with or even didn't know, who suddenly showed kindness to her.
There must be a ghost for no reason.
Seeing that Qin Xingyue's tone was not enthusiastic, the boy continued, "There is a reason for choosing you. We live on the upper and lower floors. If there is any situation, it is more convenient to take care of each other. Also, you are single in this building, and I am also single. We are isolated and helpless, and mutual cooperation is the best choice for each other. Also, I think you are smarter than others!"
Qin Xingyue looked at him, waiting for him to continue: "Choosing you is not a blind decision I made. I have read all the messages in the group these two days. You are not like other idiots who expose all your information. On the contrary, you are very smart and did not participate in the discussion in the group. You are obviously at home, but you are completely invisible, which means you have realized it."
When he said this, there was still some contempt in his eyes. In his eyes, those people in the group were all like fools without brains.
In the current situation, if I tell others about my family's situation, wouldn't that be like handing my neck to others for them to wipe?
Some people are still showing off how much food they have at home, and they will be the first to be robbed.
But the tenant upstairs from him is different.
He observed her for a while, and besides being smarter than others, he noticed that this person seemed to have anticipated this and had already stockpiled food in advance.
Qin Xingyue just calmly watched the other person talk about others and praised herself. She was always very calm, without any change in her expression, as if the person the other person was talking about was not herself.
After the boy from 2708 finished speaking, seeing that Qin Xingyue still had no reaction, he did not rush and just smiled and said, "Don't worry, maybe the situation I said will not happen, and this is also the best ending. And my finding you will not affect anything. I just hope that when something really happens, we can help!"
After saying that, he said sorry for disturbing me and turned away without any further entanglement.
Qin Xingyue closed the door and turned into the house. After a while, her mobile phone received a notification sound. Someone sent her a friend request through the group chat.
It was the user of floor 2708 downstairs from her.
Oh--
She chuckled and agreed.
But there was no reply to the message sent by the other party.
Although the other party spoke sincerely and stated his reasons, Qin Xingyue did not believe his reasons.
Just based on what he said, why should she believe him and cooperate with him?
You know, on the surface, the other party is a boy, and she is a girl. In terms of physical strength alone, she has no advantage over the other party. Why should the other party choose to cooperate with her? There is absolutely no need for this. He can find other people to cooperate with.
From the moment he approached her, she no longer believed that he had any good intentions.
Besides, this person——
A hint of coldness flashed across Qin Xingyue's eyes. She closed her eyes, but when she opened them again, the hostility in her eyes still hadn't disappeared.
In her previous life, she was beaten by a bald man and others and stayed in the hospital for a month. After the end of the world, she suffered a lot and finally returned home, but her home had been occupied by someone.
The boy just now was one of them.
The group of people occupied her house, and when she came back, they stole her warm clothes and the little food she had, then beat her up and threw her out of the community.
If she hadn't been lucky, she would have died long ago.
In this life, she had never taken the initiative to look for him, but this man came to her door. If he hadn't come to her door, she almost missed this man. His appearance just reminded her that there was a group of enemies from her previous life in the community.
The other party is not a good person, and she will not believe his words asking for cooperation.
However, she did not say anything definite. She wanted to see what tricks this person was trying to play.
Now, the two of them live in a residential complex, so it's a good opportunity for him to have some fun.
Otherwise, the end of the world has just begun. How should I get through these long days? I must find some fun for myself.
Qin Xingyue stood up and stretched, smiling and feeling happy.
