Two days later, the entire first floor was submerged.

Jiang Ning stood on the balcony, watching several people risk swimming out of the residential complex.

This side had higher ground, and the water flow wasn’t very strong, but outside was different.

Whether those who swam out could make it back depended on luck.

Zheng Weili sent a message saying she had decided to move over immediately.

She and Lu Yu lived in Unit 3, only about 50 meters away from Jiang Ning’s building.

Feeling a bit uneasy, Jiang Ning used binoculars to keep an eye on things.

About half an hour later, an inflatable rubber raft appeared in the water.

There were things placed on the raft. Lu Yu, wearing a disposable raincoat, sat on it paddling, while Zheng Weili was in the water, dragging the raft and swimming hard forward…

Jiang Ning grabbed some trash and went downstairs, planning to pick them up on the second floor.

When reaching the 12th floor, Jiang Ning happened to run into Su Mengyao coming out of room 1202, wearing a polka-dot dress that wasn’t very suitable. When she saw Jiang Ning, her eyes brightened. “A Ning.”

It had only been five days, but the goddess aura was gone; not only was she thinner, but her face was pale and unhealthy.

Jiang Ning ignored her and continued downstairs with the trash.

“A Ning, are you mad at me?” Su Mengyao followed, her voice sweet and fragile. “If I did anything wrong, you can just tell me.”

Jiang Ning frowned and warned, “Stay away from me.”

But it was as if Su Mengyao hadn’t heard. She eagerly followed, “A Ning, actually, what I have with Senior Yang isn’t what you think, we’re just good friends. I feel like we’re pretty connected…”

Jiang Ning stopped walking and threw the trash in her hand at her. “Are you deaf or just stupid?”

Su Mengyao couldn’t dodge in time and got hit directly.

Her beautiful face instantly lost its charm, and she angrily shouted, “What the hell are you doing?”

“Su Mengyao, I don’t care if you leech off others, but don’t set your sights on me.”

These words made the girl standing at the door of 1202 look very displeased, her mood like a rollercoaster.

“What do you mean by setting your sights on you?” Even with her good upbringing, Su Mengyao couldn’t hold back, “We’re just schoolmates greeting each other.”

“Not setting my sights on me but acting like a lapdog, always adding me on WeChat. What do you want if not this?”

“You…” Su Mengyao blushed, then started shouting loudly, “Your family’s stuff is rotting, while others are starving. If you have food, why not share it with those in need?”

What a clever distraction! Jiang Ning pulled out a kitchen knife hidden under her clothes and swung it towards her face, “Which eye of yours saw my family’s stuff rotting? You’re like a leech, sucking one family dry and moving to the next! Everyone’s starving, why should I give food to you? Just because you have a big mouth and spread your legs?”

During this harsh winter, she had been with several men, using stolen space to privately share their supplies to survive the filthy and filthy apocalypse in relative comfort.

Whether this was voluntary or forced by Yang Weicong was unknown.

In a world where order had collapsed, trading one’s body for food wasn’t unusual.

Su Mengyao screamed and stumbled back, hitting the wall, her face pale and trembling all over.

She never expected Jiang Ning to pull a knife on her and was so shocked she couldn’t speak.

The commotion was loud enough for neighbors to open their doors.

Jiang Ning ignored their glances and continued downstairs, hearing Su Mengyao burst into tears behind her.

Meanwhile, Zheng Weili braved the typhoon and storm, swimming over.

Humans were fragile in the face of a disaster. A mere 50 meters almost cost her half her life.

Jiang Ning helped Lu Yu climb through the window, then hauled up several backpacks, then the rubber raft, and finally Zheng Weili, who was still in the water.

The residents on the second floor were also busy moving. With water, electricity, and gas cut off, life was tough. Even with rice, flour, oil, and food, there was no way to cook.

Some used white liquor as fuel, some chopped furniture for firewood, and some, starving crazy, ate raw rice and got diarrhea.

Seeing a few sturdy bags thrown in from the window, many people’s eyes lit up. Especially when they saw the rubber raft, an older woman quickly walked over and asked with a smile, “Why are you bringing so much stuff for moving? What do you have?”

She smiled but her eyes were full of scheming.

When she tried to grab something, a panting Lu Yu quickly put the bags at her feet, not allowing her to touch them.

When she couldn’t get the luggage, the woman tried to snatch the rubber raft, “Young man, we’ve been trapped here for days without food or drink. Let us borrow the raft to go outside and look for some supplies. No one should let the children starve.”

The rubber raft was a life-saving tool. Lu Yu couldn’t agree, but the woman just reached out to grab it.

The woman pulled on her, and the weak Lu Yu almost fell. In desperation, she pulled the valve, and the raft hissed as it deflated.

“What’s wrong with you, young man? Everyone’s suffering; why can’t you lend a hand?”

Zheng Weili, dragged up by Jiang Ning, saw her boyfriend being bullied and immediately got angry. She pushed the woman hard, “What do you think you’re doing!”

Her strength was strong; the woman stumbled back five or six steps and hit the wall, nearly falling down the stairs.

The woman’s two sons rushed up, “If you won’t lend it, fine. But who gave you the right to hit people?”

They raised their fists to hit Zheng Weili first to gain the upper hand.

Seeing they were men, Zheng Weili wasn’t polite. She threw a punch and a kick, knocking the two down the stairs to the first floor with a splash into the water.

The woman sat on the floor, about to wail, but seeing her sons fall into the water, she had no time to throw a tantrum and scrambled down to help.

Other onlookers criticized, “She was only asking. Was it necessary to start a fight?”

Everyone’s eyes were filled with greed and envy. The raft had been lent out; would it be returned?

Jiang Ning had anticipated this situation; otherwise, she wouldn’t have brought the knife.

Zheng Weili grabbed the kitchen knife and pointed at them, shouting, “Anyone who touches my stuff, try it!”

With her short hair and slightly hoarse voice, at first glance she seemed like a man. After seeing her take down two men with one move, those with evil intentions dared not approach despite shouting.

No need for more words, Jiang Ning grabbed the bags and led the two upstairs.

Lu Yu was sullen, and Zheng Weili was in a bad mood too.

A typhoon and storm had not only turned the world upside down but also shattered people’s values, turning everyone fierce and cruel.

Seeing the stainless steel door on the 18th floor, Zheng Weili was stunned, “A Ning, you’re really amazing.”

“The neighbors installed it; I just lucked out by association,” Jiang Ning replied.

Lu Yu, dark-circled-eyed, said, “If I had known, we would have moved earlier. We haven’t slept well these days.”

People freeloading, using the toilets, even breaking into rooms late at night.

Jiang Ning asked with concern, “You haven’t run out of food, right?”

“We got lucky. Before the typhoon, someone mistakenly filled out the wrong delivery address, and the supermarket sent several large bags over.”

Two bags of 10 kilograms of rice, several bundles of noodles and rice noodles, pickled vegetables and fermented tofu, a portable gas stove, solid alcohol blocks, a rubber raft, and a solar charger.

The order was anonymous. Before the two could figure it out, the typhoon came.

Normally, they either ate at the school cafeteria or ordered takeout, sometimes cooking instant noodles.

If it hadn’t been for the wrong delivery, Jiang Ning and Lu Yu might have starved to death.
