Chapter 30: Sisterhood

Just as Chu Yao’s face turned green with anger, she suddenly heard Chen Rou’er’s scream.

“Chu Yao! You bitch! I’ll kill you!”

Chen Rou’er was stunned for a while. Suddenly, she received a message from Ye Xingchen. She thought that this bootlicker Ye Xingchen was here to apologize, but she did not expect him to send a video.

She opened the video and watched it carefully. Only then did she realize that after she had quarreled with Ye Xingchen, her so-called best friend, Chu Yao, had actually gone to Ye Xingchen to reveal dirt on her?!

Chen Rou’er didn’t think too much about it. She even thought that the reason why Ye Xingchen was so cold to her was that Chu Yao had said a lot of bad things about her to Ye Xingchen behind her back.

Wrapped in a thick blanket, she went up and pushed Chu Yao, who was sitting beside her, to the ground. She kicked Chu Yao’s abdomen and reached out to pull Chu Yao’s hair.

In an instant, the two of them pulled each other’s hair and fought in the small living room.

If it wasn’t for the fact that the weather was too cold and they still had to live under the same roof, and because murder was illegal…Otherwise, they would have killed each other long ago!

Chu Yao, who had been beaten up without knowing what was going on, finally knew what was wrong with Chen Rou’er. At this moment, she hated Ye Xingchen even more.

However, compared to hatred, they wanted to live in Ye Xingchen’s house more. Even if Ye Xingchen treated them like dogs, as long as they could eat their fill, they were willing to pretend that nothing had happened.

Ye Xingchen continued watching the movie after dinner. Suddenly, his attention was attracted by a line of small words floating at the bottom of the screen. He quickly stopped the movie and took his phone from the sofa.

“Official news: In order to meet the electricity demand of the general public, the government has decided to supply electricity to everyone from 1 to 2 pm every day.”

“However, due to the limited power supply, it is impossible to fully meet the electricity needs of the general public. Therefore, please do not use high-power appliances to prevent regional power failures.”

“Currently, all major power stations are in a state of suspension, and there is a shortage of electricity. We hope that everyone will consciously abide by the rules and not use high-power electrical appliances without permission to avoid regional long-term and large-scale power failures.”

Ye Xingchen looked at the news and raised his eyebrows.

The power supply finally came, and the officials were quite fast.

At a time when resources were scarce, it was already a great decision for the government to be willing to provide what little energy it had to the people.

Even if the government started to use manpower to generate electricity again in the future, that would be a long time later. After all, the ancient method of generating electricity by manpower had long been eliminated. It would take a long time to re-create machines that could generate electricity by manpower.

At the very least, before Ye Xingchen died in his previous life, he had only heard that the officials were developing it.

Most of the power stations in the world had gone on strike long ago. Before manpower was used to generate electricity, these energy sources were used less and less.

At the same time, Ye Xingchen also paid attention to the wording of this news.

The officials had already given up on hiding the severity of the snow disaster. After everything became out of control, the officials decided to release the news so that everyone could recognize the reality as soon as possible and start saving themselves as soon as possible.

The government could not save so many people.

Ye Xingchen closed the news interface and switched back to the chat interface.

As expected, all the chat groups were in an uproar.

Some people scolded the officials for their inaction, some anxiously asked everyone what to do, and some even began to purchase supplies at high prices in the group.

The people who had cursed Zhang Peng for raising the price of instant noodles earlier all started to bid 10,000 yuan per bag of instant noodles in the group!

The price of instant noodles had been raised to 10,000 yuan a bag two days ago. After the official news report was broadcast today, someone was selling it for 20,000 yuan a bag!

Ye Xingchen was speechless.

The greed of human nature was revealed at this moment.

They knew that the snow disaster would continue for a long time, and even the officials could not deal with it. At this time, everyone knew that money could no longer be used to buy things, but there were still people who wanted to exchange their life-saving rations for money.

Ye Xingchen yawned and decided to wake up to see this magical world.

After waking up, Ye Xingchen rubbed his eyes and took his phone.

Now, Ye Xingchen’s greatest joy was reading the news in the various groups. Previously, he was afraid that everyone’s mobile phones would run out of battery and he would have nothing fun to read. Fortunately, the officials had started to provide power for everyone. Now, the various groups were starting to be lively again.

Ye Xingchen didn’t expect that the first thing he saw was a message from Chen Rou’er and Chu Yao.

Chen Rou’er, ” Xingchen, I’m sorry. The weather yesterday was too cold. I’m not in a good mood.”

“It’s not what you think. Don’t listen to Chu Yao’s nonsense. She can’t stand seeing me do well.”

“I was too naive in the past and didn’t know anything. I didn’t realize who was true to me at all. I didn’t realize that my best friend, Chu Yao, was actually such a person.”

“But after so many days, I seem to have suddenly understood my feelings.”

“All this while, the person who treated me the best was you. In the past, I didn’t know how to cherish you, and I didn’t know that your position in my heart was actually so high. Fortunately, I suddenly woke up these few days.”

“Please forgive me. Give me another chance. Let’s start over.”

“Let me be your woman. I don’t know when this snowstorm will end. You’re a man too, aren’t you?”

“Let me accompany you. We can be companions. At least we won’t be so lonely.”

Ye Xingchen suddenly sighed.

In the past, Chen Rou’er was indifferent to him. Ye Xingchen knew that even if it was just a meal, Chen Rou’er would only agree because of those expensive gifts.

However, after finally realizing how serious this snow disaster was, Chen Rou’er, who had always been so noble in front of him, actually put down all her arrogance and dignity.

Even though she was mercilessly insulted and ridiculed by Ye Xingchen, she still put down all her dignity and licked Ye Xingchen’s boots.

Ye Xingchen’s face was full of helplessness, but he also felt very upset. He only felt that he was really blind in the past and that they were not wrong to call him a bootlicker.

Indeed, wasn’t he just bootlicking? Wasn’t he licking such a promiscuous girl? He had once been angry with his parents because of Chen Rou’er, this disgusting woman.

Chen Rou’er was clearly not worth a single cent, yet she still had to pretend to be so noble. She was truly despicable!

Ye Xingchen tapped on the screen fiercely. “I don’t think so. You also know that everyone is not living well these days. If you come at this time, what disease would you infect me with? How can I treat it? I don’t think so. Although I’m not a germaphobe, you’re too dirty.”

Ye Xingchen closed Chen Rou’er’s chat box and opened Chu Yao’s chat box.

Ye Xingchen’s jaw almost dropped when he opened it.
