Chapter 4 Earthshaking


Chapter 4 Earthshaking

Wang Qiang opened the door with the key and walked into room 1602.

At this time, several people were sitting and chatting in the living room.

"Wang Qiang is back!" Several people greeted Wang Qiang one after another when they saw him.

Wang Qiang responded: "Well, I just took a walk in the community for a while."

"Didn't you go for takeout today?" Several people looked surprised.

They have been renting this house with Wang Qiang for more than a year.

In their impression, Wang Qiang is down-to-earth and hard-working, and will not stop until he is exhausted every day.

They admire Wang Qiang's hard-working character from the bottom of their hearts, but they would definitely not be able to do it themselves.

"I didn't run out in the afternoon and planned to rest for two days." Wang Qiang didn't mention the end of the world. He knew that unless he spoke about such things, he would be regarded as mentally ill. Instead of being misunderstood and still not believed, it would be better not to say anything at all.

"You really should take a rest. If you run out for takeaways 12 hours a day, your body will be unable to hold on sooner or later."

"That's right, if you want me to say you should stop doing food delivery, then are people doing the food delivery? They are worse than oxen and horses!"

"I remember Wang Qiang, didn't you study hotel management in college? Why don't you apply for a job in a hotel?"

"Don't be kidding me. I studied business administration in college. Now I am still working in sales!"

"That's because you can't do it yourself. How do you know Wang Qiang can't do it?"

"If you really want to succeed, how about working as a delivery rider for two years?"

"Ahem~! You're talking too much!" Maybe he was talking too fast and got a little carried away, so he just said what was on his mind.

The person who spoke was also quite embarrassed. He smiled sheepishly at Wang Qiang and said that he didn't mean that.

"It's okay, this is the truth." Wang Qiang said lightly, then said a few words to them and went back to his room.

To be honest, although Wang Qiang and the others have rented together for more than a year, their relationship is really average. At most, they are just familiar faces.

Going out to explore the society is no longer the same college dormitory as before. There is no so much emotion at all.

Everyone has to be busy with their own things. They leave early and come back late every day. How can they have so much free time to make friends.

Especially Wang Qiang, who works as a takeaway driver and has even less time.

Moreover, he used to live an extremely frugal life, and it was impossible to treat guests to dinner or anything like that.

Therefore, when they asked him to go out for supper together in the past, Wang Qiang always excused himself because he was tired.

He knows that no one likes a freeloader. Either they come and go, you treat me today and I treat you tomorrow, or you just don’t go in the first place.

Because of this, his relationship with them was quite average.

The few of them, on the other hand, occasionally go out for late-night snacks or something like that. I don't know what's going on behind the scenes, but at least on the surface they seem to have a good relationship.

"Click~!" Wang Qiang's door closed.

Several people in the living room looked at each other.

"You think Wang Qiang is not tired from living like this every day?" someone whispered.

"People want to save money and then go back to their hometown to develop, which is different from us."

"Saving money? It is really difficult for lower-class workers like us to save money in a city like Hangzhou, unless we are like Wang Qiang and have no social life."

"He doesn't even have a girlfriend!"

"Then his arm muscles must be very developed."

"." Several people were silent for a while, and then they all laughed.

The room was filled with all kinds of food and water.

Wang Qiang was lying on the bed, looking at the ceiling with his eyes open and thinking about things.

He knew that he was seen as a loner by those around him, but that was not his nature.

He wasn't like this when he was in college.

But there is no way, economic conditions do not allow him to have too much social interaction, after all, social interaction means spending money.

His goal all along was to earn enough money to open a small shop back in his hometown and then settle down.

He could sacrifice these years for the future.

But when I think about it, the entire world will undergo earth-shaking changes after tomorrow, and the original social system may completely collapse overnight.

"Have I suffered too much in the past two years?" Wang Qiang couldn't help but think to himself.

If he had known that such a day would come, he wouldn't have been so miserable.

But how can there be so many people in the world who know this in advance.

Most people regret it only after it happens. Fortunately, Wang Qiang is now about to have his life finally come to an end.

Having obtained the golden finger, he is destined to live a better life than anyone else in the apocalypse!

"Tomorrow will be a day of new life for me!"

"Go to bed early tonight and get ready for tomorrow!" Thinking of this, Wang Qiang stood up and took out a set of clothes from the closet, then opened the door and walked out.

"Which one of you wants to use the bathroom?" he asked the people sitting in the living room.

"We won't need it for now. Do you want to take a shower?"

Wang Qiang nodded.

"Then go ahead, we'll be late."

Hearing this, Wang Qiang walked into the bathroom with his clothes and toiletries.

The only downside to public restrooms is that you have to accommodate other people.

Especially a house like theirs, which is divided into three households.

Except for Wang Qiang's household, which lives alone, the other two households live together with two or three people.

Therefore, how to reasonably allocate bathroom usage time has become a big problem.

Twenty minutes later, Wang Qiang finished washing and came out of the bathroom refreshed.

By this time, no one was in the living room outside.

Wang Qiang glanced at the other two rooms, and there was some kind of collision sound coming from one of them. Wang Qiang was used to it, so he went back to his room and closed the door, and he basically stopped hearing it.

The next day, Wang Qiang was woken up by the alarm clock on his cell phone.

The alarm clock he set was for 7 a.m. Like in the past, he would have gotten up around 6 a.m. today, so he stayed in bed today.

But starting from today, he will never have to get up so early again.

Get up and wash up.

At this time, the tenants in the other two rooms were not up yet.

Although it was eight in the morning for them, they didn't have to get up so early because their work place was not far from the community.

After Wang Qiang finished washing, he went out and went downstairs to have breakfast.

At this time, the countdown in the system still has 42 minutes.

It was enough for Wang Qiang to finish a breakfast and then came back.

Wang Qiang rarely comes here to have breakfast at the breakfast shop outside the community. His usual breakfast is basically a piece of bread and a bottle of water.

Today, he had the rare opportunity to sit in a breakfast shop and slowly eat wontons and steamed buns.

Wang Qiang ordered two steamed buns and a bowl of wontons.

Wontons cost 8 yuan a bowl and xiaolongbao cost 10 yuan a bowl.

This breakfast cost him 28 yuan.

How dare you usually be so extravagant!

After breakfast, it was exactly 7:45.

Wang Qiang scanned the QR code with his mobile phone to pay, and then went to the small supermarket next door to buy some snacks such as potato chips. He didn't bother to buy these things yesterday because they were not enough to satisfy him and they also took up space.

But now, Wang Qiang plans to buy some back.

I didn’t buy much, just filled six large shopping bags.

Potato chips are light and they don’t feel heavy even if you carry so many.

Back to the community, the time was already 7:53.

It took another 5 minutes to take the elevator upstairs.

Mainly it took 2 minutes to wait for the elevator to come down.

When Wang Qiang got home, the time was exactly 7:59.

At this time, there is only one minute left in the countdown to the end of the world!

Wang Qiang closed the door, moved the table, blocked the door, and then walked to the window to see what the end of the world would be like.

At this time, the time happened to be 8 o'clock!

And the countdown to the apocalypse in the system has completely reset to zero!
