Due to the frozen water pipes, water supply in the neighborhood had become a major problem.To quench their thirst, residents had to brave the extreme cold of over minus seventy degrees outside to collect snowwater on the ground floor.

However, once they had retrieved the snowwater, the problem of how to melt it became a major issue.Indoors, the temperature was also around minus fifty to sixty degrees, at which point, solid ice was as hard as concrete.Some residents, driven to extreme thirst, resorted to licking the ice, only to find their tongues stuck to it, freezing them painfully.And during these past few days, Zhang Yi had observed through surveillance cameras that Chen Zhenghao's men came over daily to spy on them.Clearly, they believed that Zhang Yi would also come out for water, intending to seize the opportunity to eliminate him.

However, for several consecutive days, they had not seen Zhang Yi leave his house.They couldn't imagine how well-stocked Zhang Yi's home was.As long as he was willing, he could live comfortably in this room without worries until death!"Is Chen Zhenghao still not dead? He's quite resilient," Zhang Yi muttered to himself.Chen Zhenghao's lower leg had been shot, and without proper treatment, his leg was sure to be crippled.Moreover, due to infection, even his life was in jeopardy.

Not to mention that under such extreme low temperatures, any injury would cause a high fever.Surviving was truly a miracle!"Could it be that the virus can't survive because the temperature is too low, so he hasn't died?" Zhang Yi wasn't very knowledgeable about medicine, so he couldn't figure out why Chen Zhenghao was still alive.But he didn't care much; whoever lived or died outside had little impact on him.Chen Zhenghao's death was just a matter of time....

The next morning, after Zhang Yi woke up, he groggily reached for his phone.Checking the group chat messages and browsing the forum to see the outside world's situation had become his greatest pleasure now.In this post-apocalyptic world, watching others struggle desperately in extreme cold while he enjoyed a life like heaven was immensely satisfying.At the very least, it dispelled his inner boredom and occasional loneliness.Compared to those who froze or starved to death, or struggled on the brink of death, he considered himself incredibly fortunate!He opened his phone and was surprised to find messages from Fang Yuqing and Lin Caining.Fang Yuqing: "Zhang Yi, I'm sorry. I might have been too cold yesterday, so my emotions weren't great. I shouldn't have snapped at you.""You're right; I used to be too naive and immature. I didn't realize who genuinely cared for me.""Now I see that the person who has been best to me is you. I actually have feelings for you deep down inside.""Can you forgive me? Let's live together well from now on!""I want to be your woman. Living alone, you must feel lonely too, right?""I can fulfill many of your needs, hehe, you know what I mean!"Zhang Yi felt a bit sentimental.

The previously aloof Fang Yuqing had finally, in the face of disaster, shed all her dignity and arrogance.Even though he had mocked her ruthlessly, she had to set aside her pride and choose to fawn on him."Tsk, tsk," Zhang Yi shook his head. In his past life, he had been foolish.If he had known she was this kind of woman, he would have made his move earlier.Women like Fang Yuqing were like those who demanded an exorbitant dowry when they could settle for a simple one.Clearly, they were cheap, yet they pretended to be pure!

Zhang Yi replied with a sentence: "Although rotten pears can quench one's thirst, I'm not that thirsty yet."He was a man with ancestral skills, after all.And even if worst came to worst, there were plenty of props in the dimensional space he could use!High-end products, full replicas developed by Sakura Country, capable of heating and equipped with voice functions.Ah, it wasn't what Zhang Yi wanted, but the variety in Walmart's warehouse was just too extensive.After closing Fang Yuqing's chat, Zhang Yi opened Lin Caining's messages.

This woman was even bolder than Fang Yuqing.Perhaps she realized her looks were not as good as Fang Yuqing's, so she competed in a different way.She sent several provocative selfies, all of them pushing the boundaries.Compared to Fang Yuqing, she was even more uninhibited. If these were exposed, she would face social death.Zhang Yi quickly replied, "Yours are way too dark."And then, he ignored her.He knew that both of these women, after seeing the comforts of his home, would go to great lengths to enter.

Now that they had cast aside their dignity and resorted to begging, they would likely employ any means necessary in the future.But what did that matter?Zhang Yi had invested heavily in turning his home into a fortress, prepared for any possible situation....After receiving Zhang Yi's response, Fang Yuqing and Lin Caining vented their frustrations and exchanged harsh words once again.They had abandoned their dignity and begged Zhang Yi. Especially Lin Caining, who had even taken explicit selfies to seduce him.And Zhang Yi had the audacity to say she was "too dark"!A great shame!Well, Zhang Yi's point had some merit, but those areas of hers were irreversibly darkened! What could she do?The more they thought about it, the less reconciled they felt.Life now was like hell, enduring not only hunger but also extreme cold.

For them, Zhang Yi's house was their last hope!Fang Yuqing gritted her teeth, her eyes filled with determination."If necessary, we'll just force our way into his house!""I must live in his house; I can't stand hunger and cold anymore!""If push comes to shove, we'll kill Zhang Yi too!"As long as they could move into Zhang Yi's house, she was willing to do anything!Although she thought about it, she was still a woman.If she tried to break into Zhang Yi's house and fight him, she would surely lose.

Thinking this, Fang Yuqing cast her cold gaze toward the neighboring room.She and Lin Caining had already severed ties, their sisterhood long gone.But now, Fang Yuqing needed someone to help her.So she went to the neighboring room and said to Lin Caining, "That damned scoundrel Zhang Yi has been watching us starve and freeze. He won't let us into his house.""We can't just sit around waiting to die!""Such a nice house doesn't belong to him. Let's figure out how to take it from him!"Lin Caining, upon hearing Fang Yuqing's suggestion, also got a gleam in her eyes.Kneeling before Zhang Yi hadn't worked, so they would have to resort to deception and robbery!"All right, I agree with your idea!""That scumbag Zhang Yi has no right to live in such a nice house!""He should get out and freeze to death, get bitten by wild dogs!""Us moving into his house would be most appropriate."
