Zhang Yi feigned ignorance, "What's wrong? I haven't done anything bad!"

Lin Caining said, "Are you dumb? The city is locked down because of the heavy snow, and we're almost out of food at home."

"Isn't this the perfect time for you to send some delicious food over and show your loyalty to Yuqing?"

"If I were you, I'd send over all the good stuff like Wagyu steaks and Australian lobsters."

"Yuqing would be so touched, wouldn't that increase your chances?"

Zhang Yi, reading Lin Caining's message, could already picture the greedy look on that gold-digger's face.

He sneered.

How was this any different from begging?

But what was laughable was that they begged as if they were doing him a favor.

As if by giving them food, he was the one being given an opportunity.

Such a facade made Zhang Yi want to slap them hard!

Despicable!

Zhang Yi decided to toy with these two green tea b*tches.

He replied, "But we don't have much left at home either! Just enough for me."

Lin Caining frowned and immediately criticized, "Foolish! How long can the snow disaster last? Starve for a couple of meals, and once you've tricked Yuqing, won't you have made a huge gain?"

"If you can't even part with such a small thing, I don't think you're truly sincere about our Yuqing!"

Zhang Yi laughed even harder.

These two women, one playing the good cop and the other the bad, thought they had the Couple game figured out.

Too bad Zhang Yi had been reborn and had long seen through their shameless nature.

In response to Lin Caining's Couple act, he simply replied with an "Oh," then tossed his phone aside, ignoring her further.

Lin Caining, seeing that "Oh," was infuriated.

"Oh? What do you mean by 'Oh'?"

"I've been talking to you for so long, and this is your attitude?"

"Send the food over quick! I want to eat Wagyu steak and Australian lobster too!"

Lin Caining was a glutton; not having had anything good to eat for the past couple of days and seeing Zhang Yi enjoying a feast made her drool with envy.

She had intended to use Fang Yuqing's name to trick Zhang Yi into sending all the good food to her.

But things had taken a turn she hadn't anticipated.

That "Oh" nearly broke her!

Could it be... he was no longer interested in Fang Yuqing?

No, no, that's impossible!

Lin Caining recalled Zhang Yi's attentiveness to Fang Yuqing over the past few years and immediately shook her head.

"He must just be temporarily out of his mind!"

Fuming inside, Lin Caining went to Fang Yuqing and exaggeratedly relayed the story.

Of course, she told Fang Yuqing that she approached Zhang Yi solely to help her get supplies.

Fang Yuqing, with a cold expression, said disdainfully, "Hmph, who is Zhang Yi? Do I know him? Don't mention him to me again!"

If Zhang Yi wanted to be her simp again, he would have to apologize properly for the past few days' events and pay a hefty price for her forgiveness.

Lin Caining nudged Fang Yuqing, "That Zhang Yi is clueless, but don't you have other simps?"

In their neighborhood, there were quite a few colleagues who worked at the Walmart warehouse.

Among them were other suitors of Fang Yuqing, like Zhou Peng, who simped for her the hardest.

Fang Yuqing knew exactly who Lin Caining was referring to.

She pursed her lips in disdain; Zhou Peng wasn't even worthy of being her backup.

Although they both worked at Walmart, Zhou Peng didn't even have a house in Tianhai City and was still renting.

Fang Yuqing was just using him for some small advantages and had no real feelings for him.

Lin Caining advised, "It's so cold outside, and the snow is falling so heavily. We can't go out to buy anything, so why not use him for now? Let him run errands for us!"

Fang Yuqing's gaze wandered, considering Lin Caining's point.

So, she sent a message to Zhou Peng.

To her surprise, in less than five minutes, Zhou Peng came running over, bringing a backpack full of food.

Working at the Walmart warehouse, they often took discounted goods home, so naturally, they had some stock.

At Fang Yuqing's word, Zhou Peng rushed over, selecting the best items to bring to her.

Moreover, Zhou Peng patted his chest, assuring, "Yuqing, whatever you want me to do, just say the word. You know I'd do anything for you!"

Fang Yuqing showed a rare smile to Zhou Peng.

"Thank you, Zhou Peng! You're so kind."

With a few sweet nothings, she sent Zhou Peng on his way.

Then, returning to her room, her face changed immediately.

"Pfft, you dare to fancy me with that look? Dream on, in your next life!"

...

The atmosphere in the entire building was gradually becoming strange.

The extreme cold, even with the air conditioning on, kept indoor temperatures below zero.

This was something the people of Tianhai City, from the south, couldn't adapt to.

Moreover, they weren't used to stockpiling supplies, and two days of being snowed in had emptied their fridges.

Although Mrs. Lin kept saying it was fine and that the snow disaster would pass soon, everyone had their concerns.

But all this, Zhang Yi saw and felt very pleased about.

In this apocalypse, he was well-prepared, and life was even more comfortable than before the disaster struck.

He was like an outsider, quietly watching the drama unfold outside.

Chen Zhenghao and his henchmen had stopped bothering Zhang Yi after being taught a lesson.

They knew Zhang Yi's home was not easy to break into.

Moreover, Chen Zhenghao's leg was practically ruined, and without a hospital visit, it would only be a matter of days before he became permanently disabled.

As for the other henchmen, soaked through, they all fell ill with colds and fevers.

Without a way to keep warm, dragging their sick bodies around, they were likely to die from high fevers rather than food shortages.

Zhang Yi spent his time at home playing games and chatting online to pass the time.

When he felt like it, he would also exercise.

After all, he had many pieces of international brand fitness equipment at home.

Or he would read various professional books he had downloaded from the internet, like "The Barefoot Doctor's Manual" and "The Militia Training Handbook."

It's better to be safe than sorry; having these professional skills could save his life in an emergency.

Outside, the snow whirled, and the sky was shrouded in clouds, making it hard to distinguish between day and night.

On the morning of the third day, Zhang Yi got up from bed, hugging a delicious Beijing roast duck, and glanced at the clock.

"It's about time; the show is about to start."

Zhang Yi said calmly.

And at that moment, the chat group on his phone completely blew up!
