Chapter 5:

Thanks to the heating, the temperature remains around 20 degrees Celsius,

which is the most comfortable and pleasant level for the human body.

After taking off her nightgown, Su Ruoyan began putting on her clothes, wearing a white sleeveless shirt.

After putting it on, the fabric of the clothing clings tightly to the skin, especially her magnificent chest, which seems about to pop the buttons.

Unlike yesterday, today Su Ruoyan wore thin gray stockings. Although not as sexy as the black ones, the neutral tone conveyed a serene and restrained mystery, yet delicate and delicate.

Finally, put on a black pleated skirt. This skirt will give you a youthful and beautiful look.

When Su Ruoyan approached the window, she saw a vast white expanse. It looked like it had snowed all night before and was still snowing.

"I wonder how cold it is outside?"

Out of curiosity, Su Ruoyan opened the window a crack. 

Buzz!

The cold wind carrying snow blew straight in. As it brushed against her skin, Su Ruoyan shivered and quickly closed the window.

Based on what she felt just now, Su Ruoyan estimated the outside temperature to be around -10 degrees Celsius. Although it was cold, it wasn't extreme. She guessed the temperature would continue to drop.

In addition, Su Ruoyan saw many people rushing to the stores. The unusual weather, coupled with the lack of internet service, made it clear that many had discovered the problem.

By the way, without internet, we can't pay with our mobile phones, which means we can't buy things without cash.

Seeing so many people coming to shop, merchants are likely to raise prices. I can't guarantee that this will happen elsewhere, but the community leaders definitely will.

After washing up in the bathroom, Su Ruoyan bought breakfast at the system mall, then put aside her worries and enjoyed it leisurely.

Next door, Gu Qianqian was getting up. She didn't know what had happened yesterday, but the temperature suddenly dropped. Fortunately, the house was well-equipped and the heating was on.

As usual, she was wearing a white dress, looking fresh and refined, like a lotus emerging from the water.

Gu Qianqian looked at herself in the mirror and was very satisfied with her charm, but when she thought of Su Ruoyan's big rabbit, she couldn't help but feel jealous.

"I should come online today."

After losing internet yesterday, she felt extremely bored. She had no signal and couldn't even make a call.

However, when I picked up my phone, not only was there no network, but there was no signal at all.

Gu Qianqian was a little scared, but when she looked at the scene outside the window, her pupils suddenly opened to the maximum.

"How is that possible?"

Gu Qiangian said in disbelief.

 Last night, not only did the temperature drop suddenly, but there was also a lot of snow outside. You know, it's only October, so it's actually still quite warm.

The strange weather, inconvenient transportation, and the inability to contact anyone else suddenly made me feel scared.

"It'll be over soon..."

Gu Qiangian said this to himself, but still couldn't help but worry.

Gu Qiangian walked over to the refrigerator, but there was nothing inside.

Although I think things will get better, I have to stay home for the first few days, so how can I survive without food?

After thinking it over carefully, Gu Qianqian realized there was no food at home. It seemed like she had to go out and buy something. Luckily, there were stores in the community, so she was able to buy something for a few days.

Suddenly, she thought of what Su Ruoyan bought yesterday.

With so much preparation happening at once, it was obvious that Su Ruoyan had known about today's situation for a long time, but she simply didn't tell me.

 Well even if he really said it I wouldn't believe it.

After making the decision, Gu Qianqian first washed up and decided not to wear any makeup today.

What's more, even without makeup, she remains fresh and refined, as beautiful as a white flower.

As she was about to go out, Gu Qianqian took off her white dress and put on a down jacket and other warm clothes. After all, it was snowing so hard outside that it must be very cold.

Finally, she wrapped a scarf around her neck, leaving only her eyes exposed, and went out.

It was fine inside the building, but as soon as she stepped outside, Gu Qianqian couldn't help but shiver.

When the cold wind blows, skin exposed to the air feels like it's being cut by a knife.

Fortunately, the equipment was strong enough.

Walking through the snow, Gu Qianqian walked toward the store.

During the process, she met several middle-aged women and men, all of them holding things, obviously having just bought something.

Gu Qiangian couldn't help but feel a little worried. Everyone was thinking about stockpiling things, but what if they ran out?

However, when she arrived at the store, Gu Qianqian was stunned.

Seeing that the payment was made in cash, she realized there was no internet. From what the others were saying, it was clear no one had internet.

But if you have cash...

Gu Qianqian's face froze because her family didn't have any cash. After all, who used cash these days?

Is it possible that she can only borrow money?

Don't think about the elderly; they're very stingy, so they can only borrow from young people.

But young people probably don't have much cash on hand.

When she noticed the boss's snobbish expression, Gu Qianqian suddenly had an idea.

Although I don't have any money, I can use other things to offset the price, such as bracelets and necklaces. I'm sure the boss will agree.

But I'm a little reluctant, but I don't mind that much now.

 Upon arriving at the store, Gu Qianqian picked up her shopping basket and began to browse. However, there was no bread, cookies, preserves, or anything else on the shelves that could satisfy her appetite.

Gu Qianqian bit her lip. She had no choice but to settle for what looked best to her: rainbow candy, spicy strips, and spicy slices...

The rest is almost entirely junk food that I never touch on a daily basis.

The key is that these things are also rapidly declining.

Without much thought, Gu Qianqian stuffed everything she saw into the shopping cart. If someone snatched it away, she'd have nowhere to cry.

When the shopping cart was full, Gu Qianqian went to queue to pay.

After the old man in front left cursing, it was Gu Qianqian's turn.

The lady boss rummaged through the shopping cart and then directly announced a number: "One thousand yuan."

If Gu Qiangian's face hadn't been covered by her scarf, she would have offered a higher price. After all, she was very jealous.

That junk food actually cost one thousand yuan. Gu Qiang'an couldn't help but curse inwardly, but now was an extraordinary time, so she had to take off the necklace.

"I don't have any cash, but this necklace cost me over 10,000 yuan when I bought it. I'll leave it with you and redeem it later. What do you think?"

There was no other option. She was afraid that the boss didn't know the value of the necklace. Only by saying this could she let her know how valuable it was.

When the owner saw the necklace, her eyes lit up because it perfectly matched her aesthetic taste. So she agreed without hesitation: "No problem, but I'll only give you two days. If you don't come back to get it after two days, the necklace will be mine forever."

"No, this disaster definitely didn't happen in two days."

Gu Qiang'an flatly refused. Although she didn't have much hope, she still hoped to get it back. After all, it cost over 3,000 yuan when she bought it.

 "If you don't want it, take it. I won't sell it."

The proprietress said arrogantly.

The weather is bad now, and she thinks the other group must be short of food.

"Fine."

Gu Qiangian had no choice but to compromise.

"That's right,"

The owner snatched the necklace directly from Gu Qianqian's hand, and after a closer look, she was even more satisfied.

Gu Qianqian asked for a large plastic bag, put the food inside, and returned.

When she got home, because of the heating, Gu Qianqian put on a beautiful and natural white dress and then counted the snacks she had bought.

Fried, sweet, spicy.

Gu Qianqian told herself to be patient and that everything would be fine after a while.

"Oh, right, water..."

Gu Qianqian suddenly realized something.

It would be terrible if the water supply suddenly ran out in this cold weather, so hurry and get more while you still have it.
