At this moment, Fang Yuqing was curled up in her rented house, wrapping two quilts tightly around her.
Even though the air conditioner was set to 40 degrees, the indoor temperature couldn't even reach 0 degrees.
She shivered all over, feeling as if cold wind was blowing into the blankets.
But when she saw the photo Zhang Yi sent, Fang Yuqing's eyes widened in disbelief.
She couldn't believe that, in such cold weather, Zhang Yi was comfortably eating steak and drinking red wine in thin pajamas.
They both lived in the same building!
Why did it feel like they were living in different worlds?
Especially seeing that delicious steak and that bottle of high-end wine on the table, Fang Yuqing's mouth watered.
As a top-tier "white lotus" and "gold-digger," she had done her research on these luxury items.
Based on her knowledge, the steak Zhang Yi was eating was obviously authentic top-grade Wagyu beef.
And the French red wine he had on hand was definitely a classified growth, worth at least thirty thousand!
While she was freezing to death, Zhang Yi was living so comfortably, immediately making Fang Yuqing jealous.
She immediately messaged Zhang Yi.
"How nice! I also want to eat steak and drink wine!"
She thought her hint was very obvious.
According to Zhang Yi's previous character, he would definitely take the initiative to bring her steak and wine.
But after seeing this message, Zhang Yi laughed happily.
Was she still treating him like her old lapdog?
He lazily replied with a message.
"If you want to eat, go buy it at the supermarket!"
After seeing this message, Fang Yuqing's face froze.
Wasn't that obvious?
It was sixty or seventy degrees below zero outside. Exposing any inch of skin could lead to frostbite.
How could she, a delicate girl, make such an unreasonable request!
Fang Yuqing gritted her teeth and said, "Zhang Yi, you're not a man! You missed such a good opportunity to show off."
At this point, Fang Yuqing still had some backbone.
Although she really wanted to eat steak and drink expensive wine.
But in her eyes, Zhang Yi was just a fish in her pond.
Moreover, she believed that this snowstorm would not last long.
So she still tried to maintain her proud goddess image and didn't take the initiative to ask Zhang Yi for food.
Zhang Yi didn't bother with Fang Yuqing anymore and went to check other chat groups, planning to see some drama.
When he saw their neighborhood owners group, he happened to see Lin, the community committee member, urging everyone not to panic and to stay at home obediently.
"Don't worry, it's just a sudden drop in temperature, and it will pass in two or three days."
"Absolutely don't rush to hoard supplies. Trust our authorities."
"Our community committee will also find ways to help everyone get through this snow disaster. Please obey orders and don't cause trouble for the authorities."
Some homeowners raised objections.
"With so much snow, who knows when it will stop. It's troublesome to go out now. Can we manage without stocking up?"
"Yeah, otherwise, should we go out to buy some groceries! I'm afraid the price of vegetables will skyrocket in the next few days."
Lin immediately emphasized her tone.
"What are you doing? Aren't you just causing chaos?"
"Hoarding supplies will only lead to higher prices. Then everyone will have to eat expensive vegetables."
"If anyone dares to hoard supplies and I find out, don't blame me for reporting them to the authorities for disturbing public order!"
Seeing Lin acting like a leader in the group, Zhang Yi smirked.
Today was the first day of the Ice Age. Because it was too cold outside, the supplies in the supermarket were not yet sold out.
If people went out in this heavy snow, although there was a risk of frostbite, there was definitely a chance to stockpile supplies.
But because of Lin's intimidation, many people had a glimmer of hope and didn't go out to buy groceries.
The result was foreseeable.
At this moment, Lin suddenly targeted Zhang Yi.
She tagged Zhang Yi in the homeowners group.
"Xiao Zhang, you've hoarded a lot of things at home before. Now that the snowstorm is severe, you can't be a negative example."
"Stay at home obediently these days. If I catch you going out to buy things again, don't blame Auntie Lin for not being merciful!"
Zhang Yi's face turned ugly.
This old woman, because he didn't give her anything last time she asked, had been holding a grudge.
So she found an opportunity to take action now.
But unfortunately, regardless of Lin's position in the community committee, she was nothing to Zhang Yi now.
He replied with a sneer, "Auntie Lin, who knows how long this snow disaster will last? If it's a long time, and everyone runs out of food, can you take responsibility?"
With Zhang Yi's questioning, many people were dissatisfied with Lin's words, but they didn't dare to refute her because of her status as a community committee member.
With Zhang Yi taking the lead, someone immediately spoke up.
"Yeah, if you don't let us hoard supplies, who will be responsible when we run out of food later?"
"Can you afford this responsibility?"
Lin, seeing everyone standing up to her, was a little flustered.
At the same time, she hated Zhang Yi even more.
To openly refute her in the homeowners group, wasn't it disrespecting her?
"You can rest assured that we, the community committee, will be responsible for telling everyone that there will be no shortage of supplies! The snowstorm will pass quickly."
"And you, Zhang Yi. Don't incite people at this time. This is illegal and violates discipline!"
Lin, curled up at home, gritted her teeth and said viciously, "This Zhang Yi really doesn't know the heights of the sky and earth. Think of a way to arrest him and keep him in a black cell for a few days."
Zhang Yi burst into laughter.
At such a time, this woman named Lin still wanted to act like she used to, relying on her little power to oppress others. It was ridiculous.
"Hey, I can't afford such a big hat."
"Don't worry, it's so cold outside that even if you ask me to go out, I won't. Feel free!"
He had already stocked up on supplies. There was no need for him to go out and fight with others in the supermarket.
But those who believed Lin's lies would suffer later.
But some people deserved their fate, like those neighbors who had killed him in his past life.
Whether they lived or died had nothing to do with Zhang Yi.
