Having slept for a while, Xinlan woke up to find it was afternoon and she felt a bit hungry, but she endured it and got up to play video games.
Inside the computer Rong Shaoze had given her, there were other games besides the one she was playing.
Since she had nothing else to do, playing games seemed like a good idea.
She played continuously until nine in the evening, when she was so famished that she could no longer continue. She shut down the computer and decided to sleep instead, reasoning that as long as she could get through the next day, she would be able to eat.
She took her pajamas and went to the bathroom to shower, but when she turned on the tap, not a single drop of water came out.
Was there a water outage?
She seemed to remember Lao Gu mentioning that the villa had a special water storage tank, which could supply water for three days even during an outage.
How could it suddenly run out of water?
