I'm Hoarding for the Apocalypse Chapter 86 Meeting You Is My Good Fortune

86 Meeting You Is My Good Fortune

With that, Du Yue turned and ran, not giving He Xing a chance to react. She quickly ran to the seventh floor and went home. She closed the door and began to take things out of the s.p.a.ce. Considering that He Xing’s car was much smaller than the snow-sweeping truck, she did not bring a charcoal furnace this time. Instead, she took a portable gas stove and two cylinders of gas. She also took two car heaters and a can of gasoline.

Du Yue packed up the things and carried them downstairs. He Xing was still waiting at the same spot. When he saw Du Yue carrying so many things, he did not ask what they were. Instead, he picked up all the things Du Yue had left on the ground and carried them on his back. “Let’s go to the parking lot to get the car.”

Du Yue nodded and followed He Xing with her things. The parking lot was roofed, which did not seem to be of much use in extremely hot weather, but it was useful now. At least they did not have to search for their car in the white snow an hour in advance every time they wanted to drive out.

He Xing’s car was bigger than Du Yue’s off-road vehicle. It was supposed to have seven seats, but He Xing had removed the back seats to make it more s.p.a.cious. The two of them had brought a lot of things, but they only took up a quarter of the s.p.a.ce when they put all the things in the back. Looking at the remaining empty seats, Du Yue felt content. On this trip, other than completing the mission, she could also use this opportunity to search for supplies. With such a large s.p.a.ce, she did not have to worry about not having enough s.p.a.ce to store the supplies she found.

The temperature was too low, and it was very difficult to start the car. He Xing took out a battery from his backpack and powered the car. He warmed it up for five minutes before he managed to start the car.

Du Yue looked at He Xing with admiration in her eyes. This man had good foresight.

He Xing turned on the air-conditioner in the car and turned on the two heaters, one facing himself and the other facing Du Yue. “I’ll go and put on the anti-slip chains.” He Xing pushed the door open and got out of the car. Du Yue did not stay idle and followed him out. The two of them worked together, and it only took a few minutes for the anti-slip chains to be installed. When they returned to the car, the temperature in the car was obviously higher than before.

Du Yue took out some heat pads from her backpack. “The temperature is still low. Put on a few heat pads to warm yourself up better.” He Xing did not hesitate at all and immediately took them and pasted them on his body. Although the temperature in the car was much higher than outside, it was still a little cold inside.

“There’s been a rumor recently that the base is researching heating equipment. I think in a few days, we won’t have to be wrapped up like bears anymore.” After He Xing finished speaking, he could not help but burst out laughing. However, this news had a huge impact on Du Yue. After all, in her previous life, she had never used any thermal equipment until the end of the extreme cold.

However, on second thought, the base in her previous life was very small, and it could be said that all supplies were in short supply, so it was normal that there was no heating equipment. The other large bases might have had heating equipment long ago, but she was not well-informed and did not know about it.

Du Yue did not think too much about it. Instead, she turned to look at He Xing. Sensing Du Yue’s direct gaze, He Xing felt a little uncomfortable. “Why are you looking at me…? Is there something on my face?”

“No, I just suddenly feel that I was lucky to have met you in this apocalyptic world,” Du Yue spoke with sincerity. After spending so much time with He Xing, she had come to believe that He Xing was a man of good character. He was also a generous and loyal person.

He was still working for the base, so no matter what kind of news it was, he would always get it before the others. This was exactly what Du Yue needed the most.

He Xing laughed heartily when he heard Du Yue’s praise. “I think so too. It’s my honor to have met you. You’re smart, beautiful, and good at fighting.” Although she was a little reclusive, after getting along with her for a long time, he found that she was actually a soft-hearted person. The most important thing was that she had a lot of delicious food!

The two of them looked at each other and smiled. They both felt that they were lucky to have met each other.

“Fasten your seat belt. Let’s get ready to leave!” Du Yue nodded and put on her seat belt obediently. Although the world was in chaos and the traffic police did not care if they put on their seat belts or if they followed traffic regulations, it was still better to put on their seat belts for their own safety.

The snow on the main road of the base was cleared by snow-sweeping trucks every day, but the speed of snowfall was much faster than the speed of clearing. There was a thin layer of snow on the road, which could easily form ice, so they had to be extra careful when driving.

The speed was not important; the most important thing was to drive safely.
