Gu Nan was completely dumbfounded!
How could she withdraw the money when she didn’t even know the passwords?
The salary card was one thing, but how could there possibly be so much money in his stock account?
He immediately rushed to the computer, opened his stock account, and was even more stunned.
This was impossible!!
After withdrawing all the money from Gu Nan’s bank accounts, Ye Xin took her son out for a good meal.
During those six years of the apocalypse, they had never once enjoyed a proper meal!
Now, faced with a table full of delicious food, Ye Xin couldn’t help but shed tears.
She picked up some food and put it into her son’s bowl.
“Eat! Once you’re full, we’ll pack some to take home. If there’s a dish you really like, tell Mommy and I’ll order several more portions for you.”
It wasn’t until the sky was completely dark that Ye Xin finally took her son home.
Gu Nan immediately stepped forward, grabbed her by the collar, and angrily demanded,
“Where are my stocks? How were you able to withdraw the money from my bank accounts? Tell me!”
Ye Xin gently pried his hand away and calmly asked,
“Is there a problem? Perhaps you’ve misunderstood what ‘leaving the marriage with nothing’ means. Let me explain it to you…”
How could Gu Nan possibly listen?
His eyes were practically bloodshot.
“Give it back! Give me my money back!”
Ye Xin calmly dragged him outside the house.
Bang!
She slammed the door shut and removed the batteries from the electronic door lock.
No matter how violently Gu Nan pounded on the door outside, Ye Xin simply took her son into the bedroom and went to sleep.
That night, she used every method she could think of to prepare her son mentally, worried that he would be frightened when he saw her make things disappear.
But her son’s reaction surprised her.
The little boy wasn’t frightened in the slightest.
Instead, he nodded vigorously.
“Mommy can do magic! I understand! I promise I won’t tell anyone.”
Early the next morning, Ye Xin began dismantling the house with her son.
First, she stored all the furniture and appliances inside her spatial storage.
Then she took the Strength Pill and began tearing apart the doors, removing the windows, and ripping up the floor tiles.
Oh, right!
Even the wall plaster belonged to her!
She scraped it all off and piled everything inside the rooms.
Hmph! I’ll disgust you to death!
By the time she and her son walked out of the house, dusting off their hands, the place had truly been reduced to four bare walls.
She had even taken the security door with her!
Ye Xin pulled out her phone and called the mistress.
“Miss Liu, what do you think about yesterday’s video? Should I upload it to your company’s website, or would you rather pay to make this problem disappear?”
“Oh, right! Since you like my husband so much, I’ve already given him to you. Don’t you think you should show me a little sincerity in return?”
A woman’s voice came from the other end.
“I’ve already called the police. Just wait for them to come and arrest you!”
Ye Xin chuckled.
“Fine! Since Miss Liu wants to become famous, I’ll make that happen for you. Check your company’s work group in half an hour. Oh! The website works too!”
“Wait…”
Ye Xin didn’t hang up.
She listened as the woman continued,
“Just tell me. How much do you want?”
“One million yuan!”
Ye Xin didn’t hesitate for even a second.
The mistress couldn’t possibly come up with one million yuan herself.
But Gu Nan’s parents could!
For the sake of their son’s reputation, the elderly couple would definitely agree to Ye Xin’s demand.
A scream came from the other end.
“Are you crazy?! One million yuan! Where am I supposed to get one million yuan?!”
“Hehe. Perhaps you can ask my husband for help. Oh, no! He’s your husband now!”
“A million yuan for such a capable husband—you won’t be losing out.”
“I want to see one million yuan by three o’clock tomorrow afternoon. Otherwise, you already know what the consequences will be.”
“Oh, and by the way, I’m not afraid of the police. If you don’t want your own relatives to be the first ones to see the video…”
With that, Ye Xin hung up.
There wasn’t much time left.
She needed to rent a place, stockpile supplies, and return to the countryside to bring her parents to the city.
Once the natural disaster struck, the countryside would be submerged.
By then, nine out of ten houses would be empty, so she had to bring her parents into the city while she still had the chance.
Ye Xin first went to a real estate agency.
She wanted to rent a house.
She had only two requirements:
First, it had to be on the top floor.
Second, it had to be equipped with solar panels for power generation.
Because after the apocalypse, the water, electricity, and gas supplies would soon be cut off.
With solar panels, at least the electricity problem could be solved.
Besides the house, she also asked the agency to find her a warehouse.
She had only one requirement:
It had to be convenient for large trucks to enter and exit.
Renting so many places at once made her an extremely valuable client!
The agency promised that they would find suitable places for her as quickly as possible.
After leaving the real estate agency, Ye Xin received a call from Su Jing.
“Xin Xin, if you don’t want to stay in that house, there’s an empty place across from our house. I heard it’s available for rent. Why don’t you move over here? I can contact the landlord for you.”
In her previous life, Ye Xin had rented the place directly across from Su Jing.
The conditions of that apartment perfectly matched her current requirements.
But this time, she hesitated.
Su Jing was too innocent and trusting.
If she didn’t break up with her boyfriend, she might end up walking the same path as she had in her previous life.
Ye Xin hesitated before replying,
“I’ve already asked the real estate agency to find me a place. If they can’t find anything suitable, I’ll call you.”
Su Jing didn’t object either, her voice filled with concern.
“Okay! Xin Xin, please don’t do anything rash. You still have your child to think about!”
Ye Xin smiled and reassured her.
After hanging up, she took her son to find a hotel and checked in. Then, she began her crazy stockpiling spree.
She now had a total of 1.82 million yuan in her possession, so she would prioritize essential daily necessities first!
She found a place without surveillance cameras and took her little electric scooter out of her spatial storage.
She instructed her son to stay in the hotel and absolutely not wander outside.
Then she opened her phone, searched for the nearest wholesale market, hopped onto her electric scooter, and set off.
The wholesale market was only 3.2 kilometers from their hotel. It had everything from fruits and vegetables to agricultural products.
Ye Xin walked into the largest grain and cooking-oil shop she could find.
They had the widest selection, and if she bought enough in bulk, she’d have more room to negotiate the price.
Ye Xin waved her hand.
“Where’s the owner? I’m going to need quite a lot of things. Please get a notebook and write everything down for me.”
The owner was a man in his forties with a dark, weathered complexion. When he smiled, he revealed a set of remarkably white teeth.
He readily agreed and picked up a pen and paper.
“Go ahead.”
“20,000 jin of rice, 20,000 jin of flour, 5,000 jin of millet, 3,000 jin of cornmeal, 3,000 jin of mung beans…”
Ye Xin suddenly turned around.
“Huh? Boss, why aren’t you writing?”
The middle-aged man finally snapped out of his shock.
“Th-this… isn’t this a little too much? Young lady, what are you going to do with so much food?”
Of course, Ye Xin wasn’t about to tell him that the apocalypse was coming!
She immediately came up with a lie.
“I just opened a supermarket, so I need to stock up on more goods. You’ll have to give me a good price, though. Otherwise, I’ll compare prices with other suppliers, and you won’t get my business.”
The boss was so delighted that his smile nearly reached his ears.
“Sure! Sure! Young lady, say it again. I’ll write everything down properly this time.”
After Ye Xin finished listing the quantities, the boss thoughtfully asked,
“We have rice and flour in 10-jin, 20-jin, and 50-jin bags. Which size would you like?”
Ye Xin knew that different package sizes came with different prices.
She narrowed her eyes.
“Give me the largest packages. I’ll divide them into smaller portions myself when I get home.”
“Sure thing! Please wait a moment. I’ll calculate a quote for you. If you think the price is reasonable, just give me the delivery address and I’ll have a truck deliver everything to you.”
That was exactly what Ye Xin wanted.
This time, she bought all kinds of staple foods!
She ordered 500 jin each of black rice, red beans, and soybeans, along with 5,000 jin of peanut oil, 5,000 jin of corn oil, 3,000 jin of soybean oil, and 2,000 jin of rapeseed oil.
Ye Xin had been a housewife for many years, and even after experiencing an apocalypse, she still remembered the prices of these goods very well.
When she saw that the boss’s prices were fairly reasonable, she immediately agreed to the deal.
The grains, cooking oils, and other supplies cost her 685,000 yuan in total!
The boss generously rounded down the amount and charged her 680,000 yuan.
Ye Xin paid a 500,000-yuan deposit, left her phone number, and agreed to pay the remaining balance after delivery.
Just as she stepped out of the grain and cooking-oil shop, the real estate agent called.
“Miss, we’ve found both the warehouse and the house! When are you free? Shall we go take a look?”
