I survived with my sister in the doomsday

Chapter 15 Meeting new friends

Yuanyuan was excited at first when she heard that her family was looking for her, but she suddenly became uneasy. She asked Feicui reluctantly, "Feicui, why don't you come back with me? My family's conditions are definitely much better than here, and we have enough food. I want to take you with me." Her eyes showed a vague feeling of reluctance. It was a true feeling that made her want to cry. This girl made the scene look like a life-and-death separation.

After hearing this, I couldn't sit still anymore. I got up from the bed and walked over to the two of them. I thought to myself, how can I let Feicui leave with her and go to someone else's house? Although Feicui is carefree and has a boyish appearance and personality, she is still a girl under 20 years old. How can we let her leave us and live under someone else's roof when order has not been restored after the natural disaster? Just like Yuanyuan's brother was worried about his sister staying with others, I quickly persuaded her: "Feicui..."

Before I could open my mouth, Feicui raised her hand to stop me from continuing. She took Yuanyuan's arm, looked her in the eyes, wiped away the tears from her eyes, and said sincerely: "Yuanyuan, you go back first. I will come to find you when everything is settled. I swear."

The two police officers at the side were amused by the two children's vows of love. It was obvious that they were two children who had just turned 18 or 19 and were still swearing. One of the police officers teased, "Young man, is Miss Chu your girlfriend? I say you should go with her. There was no earthquake in the villa area halfway up the mountain. Miss Chu's family owns a group company, and her family's conditions are indeed much better than this rescue base."

I said, "What boyfriend or girlfriend? My sister is also a girl. How can I let her go with someone else?"

The police officer was stunned. He thought that this handsome guy was a girl. He really didn't see it. Suddenly, he looked at Yuanyuan with a strange look in his eyes. Could this girl be? Another police officer said impatiently, "Miss Chu, the order we received was just to escort you back. Don't delay. Pack up and go with us."

Chu Yuan said she didn't have anything to pack, and then she took off a clavicle necklace from her neck and put it on Feicui's neck, saying it was a souvenir for you, and asked Feicui to visit her when she was free. She said goodbye to each of us, and thanked me for taking care of her for the past two days.

This girl is quite heartwarming, but I am genuinely happy that she is leaving.

I went out again in the afternoon. Under Sister Li's order, I cleaned the corridor on the second floor and tidied up the garbage piled at the doorsteps of each house. Then, I went to the last factory building with a few volunteers to get canned meat and bread. The interior of the factory is really big. It took me half an hour to get close to the food warehouse for the first time. There were dozens of armed guards here. They all had sharp eyes and were always vigilant. They looked like guards from the army with their upright postures.

This factory building is the largest steel structure building in the entire factory, and it is also a huge warehouse. The gate of the warehouse is as tall as a city wall. Inside, it is deep and wide, with food piled up like mountains, which is astonishing. There are rows of containers filled with unknown things piled up in the back half. I guess all the reserves in the city have been moved here recently. There are people patrolling, checking and distributing each area. We reported our area number, received our own amount of canned bread and mineral water, and then were driven out. We were not allowed to stay there.

During this day, I got to know several other volunteers. One of them, Lin Lin, took the initiative to show my friendship and offered me a cigarette. I said I didn't smoke, and he was very curious, thinking that there were no men who didn't smoke nowadays. I said I used to smoke but later quit. He admired me very much. I learned that he was about the same age as me. He used to be a salesperson in this factory and was also an employee of the factory who lived on the second floor of the dormitory. Now he is basically unemployed. In the near future, the factory's products cannot be sold publicly.

As we walked and talked, I asked him why he wasn't in a hurry to go back to his family?

He answered me with a gloomy expression that his family was from a nearby village. When he was a child, his mother was sick and his father took her to see a doctor. They were in a traffic accident and died together. He became an orphan from then on. His relatives didn't want to take care of him but they all coveted his family's property. Not long after, his house and land were divided up by his uncles. Only his elderly grandfather was willing to support him, but his grandfather was also old and had no money to support his studies except for food. Whenever tuition was due, he would go to each relative's house to ask for money, but was always turned away. He had no money to pay tuition and once sat on the small stone bridge at the entrance of the village for a whole day. Later, he went out to work before graduating from junior high school. He did many jobs and finally came to this factory to work. He became a salesperson because he was eloquent. When he was 20 years old, his only relative, his grandfather, also passed away. He didn't care about the other people at all. He said indignantly that it would be better if they all died in the earthquake!

I also felt very emotional about his life experience, so I patted him on the shoulder and comforted him, telling him that the past is in the past and that he should look forward.

I asked if this was originally a bakery. He replied that there were many food processing factories in the factory area. He knew there were bakeries, canning factories, snack factories, and factories that researched new foods. The scale was too large and he was only responsible for selling the bread in the factory.

In fact, this brand of bread is also sold in my supermarket, and it sells quite well locally.

We chatted for a while and found that we were a good match, and our tempers became warmer and warmer. From him, I learned that the arrogant Sister Zhang and Sister Li were actually the dormitory managers of this floor. Sister Li was also the country wife of Mr. Wang from the supermarket. It was because Mr. Wang contracted the dormitory supermarket that he brought her from home to work as a temporary worker in the factory under the name of cleaning. Isn't this an earthquake? The leaders hurriedly gave the right to distribute food to them. This was like a wild chicken flying to the sky, making these people proud.

I was very surprised. What do you mean she is Lao Wang's wife? What about Sister Zhang?

Xiao Lin whispered to me disdainfully: "Just wait and see, those three will start fighting in a few days."

I looked at him in confusion, not understanding what he meant.

He looked around cautiously and saw that there was no one around us. He smiled and said to me in a secretive voice, "Zhang Fengling and Lao Wang used to have an unclear relationship. Now Lao Wang's wife is also in charge. She didn't dare to say anything before, but now that this person has power, he will gradually change his mind and will not be like her anymore. Sooner or later, she will have a quarrel with the two of them."

I didn't like to hear their gossip, so I asked Lin Lin curiously: "Are Lao Wang's products also so expensive?"

Lin Lin asked me how much I paid for Lao Wang's stuff. I told him the truth. He frowned and said, "This old man is really evil. How dare he ask you for so much money? Wait a minute, I'll go shopping with you. Let's see if he dares to lie to me!"

I thought to myself, it’s over. I must have been cheated by that damn Lao Wang before?
