Chapter 71 - 71

Chapter 71 EncounterSu Xiaoyu: "I just saw a car in the yard. Someone broke in."Gu Lingxiao nodded, "Then let's go down and take a look later. We just heard the loudspeaker announce that the government is establishing a base, so we don't need to kill anyone, we can just drive them out."Jin Jun: "But we can't keep living upstairs. Although we have food and drink now, it's still inconvenient."If you ask me, why don't we go and take a look at the government-owned land and see if the environment there is suitable for living?If it doesn't work out, we can always come back! There are plenty of us, we can go anywhere.Gu Lingxiao said, "Then wait a few days, go to the government base and take a look. If the environment is suitable, you can stay there!"Jin Jun quickly shook his head, "I'm not going! If we're going to stay, we'll stay together, otherwise none of us will go!"Gu Lingxiao said, "In my opinion, even if it's a base established by the government, we shouldn't go there first.""Why?" Liu Hai asked.Xiao Tengyue finally finished picking her teeth and threw the toothpick into the trash can."Are you stupid? What do you think the first thing the government will do after developing this base is?""What can I do?" Liu Hai was a little confused."There are so many corpses outside, of course we have to deal with them first. If you want to carry the corpses, then go ahead!" Jiang Yan said with a smile, not forgetting to kick him.The thought of dealing with the corpses on the road and inside the houses was unbearable forLiu Hai.He didn't even dare to think about how many corpses there would be. The government would definitely do that just to show the public.Lin Xiuxiu watched from the sidelines, laughing heartily. They weren't really fighting; they just often joked around together.After laughing, she tidied up the table. Her busy day had started in the morning, and she could finally take a break.Gu Lingxiao and Su Xiaoyu went back inside to put on their down jackets, then went downstairs together to see who had broken in.I went down from the 19th floor and finally saw the intruder on the 1st floor.A man and a woman were sleeping together, embracing each other.Seeing that they were sleeping soundly, Gu Lingxiao walked over to them and kicked the man in the lower back.Qi Tianyu was woken up, and upon opening her eyes, her eyes lit up instantly upon seeing familiar faces." Brother Gu!""How come it's you?" Gu Lingxiao was surprised to find that it was someone she knew.The young master of the Qi family is his friend's younger brother; they have met a few times and drunk together twice."Great, I actually ran into you." Qi Tianyu got up from the ground, completely ignoring Tang Xin.Tang Xin fell to the ground and only then realized that they had been waiting for someone.The moment I saw the man's face, my heart skipped a beat. What a handsome man!The sidekick next to him is also very handsome, with silver hair, like a beautiful boy from an anime.Gu Lingxiao took a few steps back, keeping her distance from him.How did you get here?Qi Tianyu: "I used to work in the newly built base in the east. Yesterday, there was some friction, and they kicked me out. So I thought about having a house here and coming back to live here."Gu Lingxiao nodded. "What's your room number?""18th floor, room 1801, the location isn't particularly good, so I didn't live there. Later, my older brother did some simple renovations and rented it out. He even sent me some money." Qi Tianyu smiled broadly upon seeing an acquaintance. Gu Lingxiao had a very good reputation and was known as a helpful person.My cousin was an alumnus of his school, and because of this relationship, they had met a few times, which made them much better than strangers.Judging from their clothes and appearance, they must have been doing quite well lately. If you could hang out with them, you shouldn't have any problems with food and clothing.As for what to do next, we'll see. Let's get through today first.Gu Lingxiao realized that the house Qi Tianyumentioned was the one Su Xiaoyu had previously rented. What a coincidence! She turned to look at him.Su Xiaoyu shook her head; she didn't know who the original owner of the house was.However, even if it's this guy's house, we can't make room for him to live in it.Since Gu Lingxiao didn't get an answer, she could only say to Qi Tianyu."I'm using your apartment now. The whole building is empty. Go up to the 10th floor and find a room to stay in!""That...that's my house!" Qi Tianyu still wanted her own house, since it was her right to live there.Gu Lingxiao said, "You don't need to worry about that. No one is coming back to this building. The 10th floor wasn't flooded, and the furniture inside is still usable. If you want to live here, find a room on the 10th floor. If you don't want to live here, you can go outside and find the government.""Go to the government?" Qi Tianyu thought of the rumors he had heard before, that various places had begun to build bases and would start searching for people in distress once the weather warmed up.Gu Lingxiao was getting a little impatient. She had already made herself very clear, but the other person still had that SpongeBob SquarePants look on their face. She wondered where he'd been all this time, managing to maintain such naivety."The government has built a new base and needs people to build it. You can go there."Qi Tianyu felt that there might be opportunities in the government, but considering what had happened before, he felt he was incompetent and thought it better to stay where he was. So he said..."But I don't want to go there. My house is here, and so is Brother Gu. You'll definitely help me, right?"Gu Lingxiao said, "I can't help you with anything. You have to take care of everything yourself, from food and clothing to shelter and transportation. I'm not your older brother, so why should I take care of you?"Qi Tianyu lost his composure and argued, "If my older brother were here, he would definitely help me. Can't you just take me in for my brother's sake? I have arms and legs, I can help you with chores. It's just a matter of having an extra pair of chopsticks and bowls."Gu Lingxiao said, "If it weren't for your older brother's sake, I wouldn't have let you stay.""What, are you trying to take over the whole building?" Qi Tianyu felt that people's hearts had become terrifying. The once gentle and refinedBrother Gu had become a stranger.Gu Lingxiao said decisively, "That's right, this is my territory. If you want to live here, go find a place on the 10th floor. You'll have to take care of your own food, clothing, and shelter. I've made myself perfectly clear.""I'm not your older brother, I can't do anything for you. You know the situation right now, so stop playing games with me!"Tang Xin tugged at Qi Tianyu's sleeve, "Why don't we go to the 10th floor and not argue with them?"Qi Tianyu knew this wasn't the time to argue, and at least they should consider the surroundings, so she pulled Tang Xin upstairs, quickly reaching the 10th floor.However, they were both panting heavily from exhaustion. Climbing the stairs without an elevator was really strenuous, and this was only because they were still in relatively good physical condition.If he lived on the 18th floor, going back and forth like this every day, he definitely wouldn't be able to stand it.
