Zhang Yi cursed Fang Yuqing thoroughly, exposing her true nature as a Green tea White Lotus.

This struck a nerve with Fang Yuqing.

Despite her materialism, promiscuity, and toying with men's emotions, she considered herself a good girl.

Zhang Yi's mockery shattered her confidence.

After all, if even a petit bourgeois like Zhang Yi looked down on her, it meant her charm was insufficient, and she had no chance of snagging a Second-generation wealthy to become a rich wife.

After Zhang Yi hung up the call, he quickly received a barrage of voice messages from Fang Yuqing.

Without listening, he knew she was cursing him.

But did Zhang Yi care?

Of course not.

In the apocalypse, this White Lotus would slowly perish from the extreme cold and hunger.

Zhang Yi was merely toying with her, watching her miserable state.

Why would he be angry with a dead person?

Instead, seeing the White Lotus in a fit of rage brought him a surge of satisfaction.

"Ha ha ha ha!"

Zhang Yi laughed heartily.

He went to the kitchen and took out a bottle of Romanée-Conti.

This bottle, worth 200,000, had been stored in a temperature-controlled cabinet even in Walmart's warehouse.

Such wine was not abundant in Zhang Yi's possession, only a few dozen cases.

Feeling good today, he decided to celebrate.

His home would never lack electricity; the circuits had been modified during renovation.

Connected to a backup power source and a noiseless generator, he was never short on energy.

He set up a table full of delicious dishes in the living room with great ceremony.

French baked snails, tomahawk steak, stargazing, Jinling salted duck, and a bottle of 200,000 Romanée-Conti.

In the apocalypse, all the usual social norms were rapidly fading.

Zhang Yi didn't fuss over dining etiquette; he ate what he wanted, however he wanted.

He could even eat caviar as if it were plain rice.

Such luxurious living was probably unique in the current world.

Because the apocalypse came so suddenly, even the most powerful and wealthy people had no time to prepare adequately.

Take Xu Hao, for example, his father was a well-known conglomerate head in Tianhai City.

But in Zhang Yi's memory, his father died half a month into the apocalypse.

After all, his wealth turned to worthless paper, and the obese old man lacked the necessary survival skills for the end times.

It can be hard to make great work when its stolen from bit.ly/3iBfjkV.

...

Meanwhile, in the apartment shared by Fang Yuqing and Lin Caining.

Fang Yuqing was on the verge of a breakdown, furiously smashing things and cursing Zhang Yi.

Under normal circumstances, she wouldn't be so enraged.

But now, she had seen the heavenly bliss of Zhang Yi's home.

The warm and comfortable environment, the abundance of high-end food, were the most precious things in the icy apocalypse.

Heaven was within reach, yet she couldn't step foot in it, which was unbearable!

"Zhang Yi, you damned jerk, who are you to curse me!"

"If it weren't for this snow disaster, I wouldn't even spare you a glance!"

Fang Yuqing seethed with rage.

On the sofa, Lin Caining watched her with a hint of contempt in her eyes.

"It's your own doing; if not, we could be enjoying Zhang Yi's feast and warm fireplace right now!"

Fang Yuqing snorted, "What's he got? Just an apartment and some savings!"

"I, Fang Yuqing, am destined to marry into wealth and become a rich wife!"

Lin Caining frowned, "But now, Zhang Yi has so much food, and a fireplace to keep warm. That's much better than any Second-generation wealthy."

She looked out the window at the relentless snowfall.

According to recent news on their phones, the whole world was enveloped in snow.

Worriedly, she said, "Will this snow disaster continue indefinitely?"

On TV, the few remaining official channels encouraged people.

Experts in thick down jackets shivered as they claimed the disaster would soon pass.

We, the people, are strong; perseverance is victory.

But where was the slightest sign of the disaster abating?

Lin Caining hugged herself, "If this snow doesn't stop, we'll either freeze or starve to death at home!"

Her words turned Fang Yuqing's anger into fear.

They had been trapped at home for ten days.

Those ten days felt longer than ten years. Without experiencing it, one couldn't understand the torment.

It could even drive a person to madness.

Even though Fang Yuqing and Lin Caining were a Green tea White Lotus duo.

But as women in their twenties, they were very fragile inside.

Faced with the unending snow, they thought of death.

Fang Yuqing curled up on the sofa, the image of Zhang Yi's warm and well-stocked home haunting her.

"It's not fair! Why does Zhang Yi get to live so comfortably, while I, so beautiful, have to suffer so miserably!"

Lin Caining glanced at Fang Yuqing but said nothing.

She wrapped herself in a blanket, took out her phone, and found Zhang Yi in her contacts.

Soon, Zhang Yi received a message from Lin Caining.

Zhang Yi was sipping top-notch wine, paired with a luxurious meal.

Seeing the incoming message, his eyes twinkled with amusement.

In the apocalypse, watching the painful struggles of women like them was more thrilling than any movie!

Zhang Yi glanced at the message from Lin Caining.

"Zhang Yi, seeing you scold Fang Yuqing, I'm so happy for you."

"I've always known she's a gold-digger who never took you seriously."

"I've always hoped you'd see through her. Congratulations on waking up!"

Zhang Yi chuckled.

"Plastic sisters, selling out Fang Yuqing so quickly."

But that was normal; birds of a feather flock together.

Lin Caining and Fang Yuqing were no saints.

He replied, "Hmm, no big deal."

Lin Caining continued, "It hurt to see you chase after Fang Yuqing all this time."

"Zhang Yi, actually… I've always liked you, did you know?"

"Now that you don't want Fang Yuqing, let's be together!"

Zhang Yi nearly spat out his wine.

"Damn, this girl is so direct!"

He shook his head, "So realistic! Looks like she's had a rough ten days."

Previously, Lin Caining was indifferent to Zhang Yi.

Despite her average status, she never doubted she was a fairy.

Now, seeing Zhang Yi reject Fang Yuqing and the high quality of life in his home, she immediately wanted to make her move.
