Reborn in the Apocalypse: A Seductive Beauty Captivates a Pure-hearted Roughneck

Xu Jingan took another large bone. ”Let’s go to the market to buy groceries in a bit, and while we’re at it, buy some takeout containers.”

”Okay.” The Xu family never compromised when it came to eating. If they found a good restaurant, they would always go there whenever they ate out, unless something happened that prevented them from going back.

Xu Wanning ate a piece of meat. ”Come to think of it, I haven’t stockpiled anything ready-to-eat. Dad, Second Uncle, you two go to the market later.”

”I’ll go out and order some spicy hot pot, clay pot noodles, rice noodles, hot and sour glass noodles, corn noodles, fried noodles, and such, and store them all in my space.”

Xu Jingping raised his hand. ”Stockpile some roast duck for Second Uncle, that’s what I like.”

Xu Wanning made an OK sign. ”No problem.”

Xu Jingan was gnawing on a large bone in his mouth, anxious to speak, but his mouth was too full to articulate.

Xu Wanning quickly spoke up. ”Dad, Dad, don’t rush, I know. You want braised dishes, pig ears, pig hearts, and all that. I will definitely order them for you.”

Xu Jingan nodded happily.

After the meal, the three of them split up to take action.

Xu Wanning went out to the food street, ordering food from shop after shop, agreeing with the owners to pick up the goods early tomorrow morning.

After a round, besides the money for tomorrow’s payment, only enough money for plane tickets was left in her card. Emptied out, completely emptied.

These things were cheaper to buy here; she always felt she hadn’t stockpiled enough.

She quickly called Lu Zhiyu. ”Zhiyu, transfer 500,000 over to me. I’m going to stockpile some spicy hot pot, clay pot rice, and such.” There was still time; she would go stockpile another batch tomorrow.

Lu Zhiyu screamed in excitement. ”I actually forgot about these too! If we can’t eat these after The Apocalypse, how miserable would that be? Remember to help me stockpile more pizza, burgers, and things like that. Especially milk tea—stockpile as much as there is. I’ll transfer one million to you.”

After her parents learned that The Apocalypse was coming, they sold everything in the house except for the house and the car, and ordered a lot of supplies. Their warehouse was already full. They planned to use the remaining money to stockpile goods from abroad and had also given her two million, telling her to stockpile whatever she was missing.

Originally, she wanted to give it all to Grandpa Zhou. Fortunately, she hadn’t given it yet.

”Got it, I’ll stockpile it.” After receiving the transfer notification, Xu Wanning hung up the phone and went to help make dumplings.

After taking a shower that night, Xu Wanning lay in bed early and sent a message to Lu Chengyue. [Brother Chengyue, are you tired today?]

Lu Chengyue had just finished washing his feet. While pouring the water, he replied. [Not tired. Will you be able to sleep today?]

Xu Wanning smiled. [Yes. If I can’t sleep, I’ll play the recording of Brother Chengyue counting sheep; I’ll definitely be able to sleep.]

Lu Chengyue’s hand paused as he set down the basin. He didn’t know why he had suddenly counted sheep in a voice message; it was so unlike him. It was strange, strangely embarrassing.

[Xiao Yu said you agreed to let her pick you up?] He had been thinking about picking her up himself, but he didn’t expect Xiao Yu to steal that opportunity.

Xu Wanning bit her finger. [Yeah, after all, you are a Firefighter and can’t just leave whenever you want. I can’t let you make a mistake. After I go back, I’ll go to the Fire Station to see you.]

That’s what being in love is like; even if you say very ordinary things, you never get tired of it, and there’s always endless talk. Her heart felt wonderful, even if they hadn’t officially confirmed their relationship yet and were still in the ambiguous stage.

Lu Chengyue got into bed and lay down. [Okay, I’ll wait for you.]

Jiang Yishen from next door poked his head in. ”Old Lu, did you chase down Pretty Miss Xu?”
