Chapter 1
"I'll give you all our savings. I've already put the house in Fulin Community up for sale. You can take the money from the sale. If you're alone outside, it's good to bring some extra money for self-defense."
In the sixth year of the apocalypse, Chen Cong finally lost his life.
When I woke up again, I heard these words.
She sat on the sofa, staring blankly at the man opposite her.
"Gu Kai?" She called out in disbelief.
"Um?"
The man who was still talking in a low voice with his head down stopped talking and raised his eyes.
Looking at the familiar face in my memory, tears instantly fell.
He is still alive!
Gu Kai is still alive!
Although his face looked a little tired, he was sitting here in good health, sitting in——
They had lived together in their little home for three years.
And she came back too.
Back from that lonely, terrifying, and desperate doomsday!
He cried so hard that he couldn't make a sound.
"Stop crying." Seeing his wife crying like this, Gu Kai sighed.
He stood up, walked over and handed me a tissue, saying, "Today is the weekend, I will go with you to handle the formalities tomorrow morning..."
hiss!
A crisp sound interrupted his unfinished words.
Gu Kai looked at his wife in astonishment as he grabbed the "Divorce Agreement" she brought on the table and tore it in half.
"gurgling?"
"You're not going to sign it, so why are you keeping it?"
Shen Cong sniffed, snatched the tissue from Gu Kai's hand, and wiped his face roughly.
The delicate skin was immediately rubbed into two red spots, which looked quite glaring on the fair face.
Gu Kai couldn't help but take another look.
Looking at the torn agreement, he explained helplessly: "It's not that I don't want to sign, but the property can't be divided like this. You are going to study at an art college, and even if you get a half scholarship, the tuition is not low. This is not the time to be angry. When you go out, you have to bring more money with you."
"I don't want it! That's not my money. That house is your pre-marital property."
"Do you have to make it clear with me?" A trace of sadness flashed in Gu Kai's eyes.
He took a deep breath and urged again: "Congcong, listen to me this time."
"I won't!"
Chen Cong looked at him with eyes that were clear from tears and asked word by word: "I just don't want your money, what can you do?!"
"I can't leave!"
Gu Kai was also annoyed: "If you don't pay me, I won't divorce you!"
"good."
Chen Cong suddenly laughed: "Then I won't divorce you. I won't divorce you either!"
As she spoke, she tore the divorce agreement into pieces without hesitation and threw it away.
Let the snow-white paper scraps scatter all over the floor.
Gu Kai was completely stunned by his wife's sudden change of mind.
Ever since a design work of Chen Cong won a big award abroad half a year ago and then he received an olive branch from his favorite university, their lives have lost their peace.
Chen Cong wanted to go abroad and asked him to quit his job and go with her.
But Gu Kai was not willing to choose this path.
They had quarreled, fought, had cold wars, and even had outbursts over this...
Later, Chen Cong moved back to her mother's home, and the only way to contact him was through mobile phone and the Internet. She even refused to meet him in person.
This meeting was to get something back and ask him to sign the divorce agreement.
Gu Kai was also ready.
Unexpectedly, things took a completely different path at this time.
"Don't just stand there. If nothing else, let's go out for a while." Chen Cong wiped the tears from his face with his hands.
While trying to calm down, she said to Gu Kai, "Take the key to Fulin's place. I don't have it with me. Let's go there now."
Six years of life in the apocalypse have already hardened people's hearts.
When she saw her long-missed husband, she was so excited that she wanted to throw herself into his arms and cry!
But she knew she couldn't do that now.
Because they don’t have much time left, they should cherish every sunny day.
If she was not mistaken, she was now reborn.
I was reborn back to the day before my divorce, which was one month before the end of the world.
Today is June 15th. Next month, with an unprecedented earthquake,
The end of the world is coming.
Since God has given her a chance to start over, she will definitely seize it and never let history repeat itself.
She will hold the hands of her loved ones tightly and overcome the difficulties with them.
Before that, of course, we must make adequate preparations.
Why do you suddenly want to go look at houses when you are in the middle of talking about something?
Gu Kai couldn't quite keep up with his wife's pace.
Then he suddenly remembered something.
"The key is at the house. The agent called today and said someone wants to see the house. I'll let him go if I wait for you."
He looked at his watch and said, "I guess he and the agent have already gone to the house."
"Then take the spare key. It's just right. You can call Jiashu now and tell him that the house is not for sale. Ask the agent to leave and ask him to go to the house. I have something to talk to him about."
Gu Kai didn't understand why Chen Cong was so anxious to go to that house?
But if they really don't want to divorce, he doesn't want to sell the house.
After all, that was their wedding house, and it was personally chosen by his mother when she was alive, so it held a special place in his heart.
"Okay." He agreed and picked up the phone, then pulled Chen Cong who had already stood up, motioning her to wait a moment.
Then he quickly went to their bedroom while calling his cousin Gu Jiashu.
Soon he came out with a gift box of cosmetics.
After opening it, he took out a face cream and handed it to Shen Cong, saying, “Apply it on your face. Your face is red from crying.”
Chen Cong was stunned for a moment.
She looked at the beautifully packaged gift box, and it took her a long time to remember that this was a very expensive cosmetics brand.
She had wanted to buy it before, but she never had the heart to do so.
I don’t remember Gu Kai buying her this cosmetics?
Seeing Chen Cong staring at him, Gu Kai tilted his head to the side a little uncomfortably and explained, "It's the birthday present I bought you before."
Chen Cong understood.
Her birthday is January 25th, and she made up her mind to go abroad in early January.
At that time, the two of them were having a big fight, so naturally they couldn't celebrate their birthday.
Therefore, he never gave this gift from beginning to end in his previous life.
Thinking of this, her heart ached again.
She took the cream and went to the bathroom.
As we walked, he said, "Take the things you need to take with you. You'll be out all day today. Take the 5,000 Euros in the drawer with you. We'll go to the bank to change them later. You're not going out anyway, so there's no point keeping them."
Chen Cong's words made Gu Kai stunned at first, and then he completely relaxed.
He now finally believed that his wife was not going to divorce him.
He had been a little worried before, fearing that Chen Cong was just emotionally excited for a while and would change again in a few days.
This kind of thing has happened before.
But now she says she wants to exchange it for euros.
Gu Kai knew that Chen Cong came today not only to deliver the "Divorce Agreement", but also to get the money, which she would need for school.
Now that she wants to exchange it, she will definitely not go abroad again.
Thinking of this, Gu Kai couldn't suppress his joy.
He agreed loudly, took the money and spare keys as quickly as possible, and left the house with Shen Cong.
Gu Kai went to drive the car, and Chen Cong stood alone by the driveway waiting.
She looked up at the sky, but the glaring sunlight made it impossible for her to open her eyes.
But Chen Chong felt that——
How beautiful it all is!
I can see the sun and feel the warmth.
There are no more poisonous insects covering the sky and earth, no more hiding in caves like wild animals, no more living in fear and suffering endless fear and loneliness...
I don’t know if it’s because the sunlight is too dazzling, but I can’t help but let my tears flow.
She rubbed her eyes hard and then looked away.
Now is not the time to be sentimental, there are too many things to do and she can't afford to waste time.
After calculating the date, Chen Cong used his mobile phone to cancel the flight and hotel reservation for a class reunion in Nan'an City in half a month.
Soon, there was more than 3,000 yuan in the bank card.
She checked her account and saw that her personal savings balance was more than 248,000 yuan, which was basically all her current savings.
The family savings that Gu Kai mentioned actually refer to his personal savings.
After the two of them confirmed their relationship, he handed over all his personal savings to the company, and his monthly salary was directly deposited into that bank card.
The money has always been managed by Shen Cong.
At that time, the two of them agreed that she would save the money as a reserve fund, and Gu Kai's money would be used for daily consumption.
Later, all the expenses for renovating the house, buying a car, and daily household expenses came from there. Even Gu Kai's pocket money was transferred to his online banking account by her on a monthly basis.
So, when Gu Kai asked her to take all the money when they divorced, Chen Cong really couldn't afford it.
But now she can reach out.
Gu Kai's money is her money, so she has a clear conscience when spending it.
Chen Cong skillfully opened the online banking, entered Gu Kai's bank account number from his memory, and checked the balance.
She could see from the running water that this person had basically not spent any money in the past six months.
The balance has only increased and not decreased, and there is now a little over 176,000 yuan in the bank card.
The total amount of working money that the two people had was 420,000.
Although it seems like a lot, it can't really do anything big.
Oh, and that five thousand euros.
Chen Cong quickly checked today's bank exchange rate and confirmed that he could receive another 35,000 yuan.
That means she now has a total of 455,000 yuan at her disposal.
She was calculating rapidly in her mind and she didn't even look up when Gu Kai's car drove over.
After getting in the car, Chen Cong didn't bother to talk to Gu Kai. She skillfully opened the shopping app.
Looking at the dazzling array of goods above, she sighed in her heart again, and then began to search quickly.
In order to prepare for the upcoming earthquake and the disaster that will follow, the first thing to buy is of course life-saving supplies.
While Chen Cong was trying hard to recall the supplies he needed most at the time, he quickly put the items he searched for into the shopping cart.
Buy one large self-inflating emergency tent that can accommodate ten people, or three small ones that can accommodate three to four people; buy five sets of the matching moisture-proof, heat-insulating, and moisture-proof mats.
In addition, she chose:
20 foldable earthquake-resistant helmets; 10 super thick emergency down sleeping bags + 20 thin emergency sleeping bags; 10 bundles of special life ropes for earthquake relief (30 meters/bundle).
100 emergency thermal raincoats; 100 thermal blankets; 50 adult and 20 children's long fluorescent clothing for nighttime outdoor activities.
100 pieces of lightweight mesh onesies with visible mosquito repellent for adults; 50 pieces of waterproof and peak-proof clothing with drawstring cuffs; 20 adjustable onesies for children, 10 sets of drawstring mosquito repellent clothing and pants, and 50 pairs of thick-soled rain boots (for men, women and children).
After carefully checking the items in the shopping cart and looking at the total amount displayed at the end: 39,400 yuan, Chen Cong took a deep breath and clicked the payment button.
The total savings was only 450,000 yuan, and 40,000 yuan was gone in one go.
But there is much more to buy.
It seems that finding a way to raise money is the top priority.
Just when Shen Cong was worrying about money, Gu Kai had already stopped the car and said to her, "We're here."
