Apocalypse Arrival - Chapter 5
After a while, Xu Mao called Chu Qianxun, “Xunxun, I am very happy that you care about me and your cousin. But money is secondary. I am still worried about your safety. I trust you, but the job requested by your classmate’s family is really strange.”
To this rebellious niece, although Xu Mao was an elder, he still carefully considered his tone, “Look, this villa is so stylish, but the security window they asked for is strong. It’s not suitable for the villa at all. And the money given is a lot and the time is so tight. Wouldn’t this family have any problems?”
To this kind of question, Chu Qianxun thought about how to answer it in advance. She used senior Fu Guoxu, who had just been wronged by her for 100,000 yuan the previous day.
“Uncle, don’t worry. My classmate’s family is from a military background, and his grandfather is still the head of a certain military area. There is absolutely no problem with the roots. Maybe the leaders like this decoration style?”
Xu Mao felt relieved when he heard that. He had never been in contact with that kind of high-level leader. Maybe people really liked that kind of style.
With that order, he could earn 100,000 yuan, which was a lot of money.
Moreover, his niece had received the deposit first, and he didn’t want to refuse her.
“That’s all right, that’s all right, I will go and have a look. We must make the windows of your classmate’s house strong.”
“My classmate’s parents are all out of town. No one is in charge of the house now, and there is nothing in it. Uncle, you and cousin go to the community, take your ID card and go directly to the property to get the key. My classmate has already given your name to the watchman.”
“Can we go directly like this?”
Xu Mao was a loyal and honest person. Since he had taken on such a highly profitable job, he also wanted to start work earlier and do his job right.
“Yes, bring the materials. It’s best to take my aunt with you. The place is remote and there is nothing to eat. It has water and electricity. She can cook for you directly there. Well, take a quilt and bed sheets to sleep at night. The place is far away, so you don’t have to run back and forth.” Chu Qianxun looked at her watch again, “The only requirement is that you must hurry up. It must be done before the 22nd.”
“Okay, then I will prepare the materials, and go there in a while.”
Xu Mao felt a little dazed. In his impression, this niece was quite introverted. How could she suddenly tell him all the arrangements to be done by speaking non stop?
“Uncle, you remember, it must be as strong as possible.”
“Hey, Xunxun, don’t worry. You won’t lose your face in front of your classmates. What’s more, they are paying so much money.”
“By the way, uncle, after four days, my classmate will give the balance to me. Can I transfer it to you together with the deposit? I am still busy with exams these days. I don’t want to go to the bank to line up twice.”
Chu Qianxun didn’t want to really give her uncle’s family the remodeling money. At this time, the more money she had, the better.
After four days, all money would become waste paper. But now she still needed to collect money by any means in exchange for supplies.
Fortunately, her uncle trusted her very much.
Her unt on the side quickly grabbed the phone, “Xunxun, your exams are more important. Don’t go to the bank and waste time. You can transfer money to your uncle anytime. We have material for this in your uncle’s store.”
Chu Qianxun pursed her lips. She looked at the window of her aunt’s house for a moment, and hung up the phone cruelly.
Standing in the shadow of the corner of the community, she soon saw her uncle and cousin come downstairs and enter their small shop. They carried long strips of aluminum alloy to the small pickup truck.
Chu Qianxun looked at them for a moment, and left the community.
Now she was unable to protect her aunt’s family, and it didn’t make any sense to stay there.
After being reborn, she neither got an ability nor any golden fingers.
The only advantage was the memory left in her mind.
After the apocalypse, the demons descended from the sky, and the human beings with demon crystal cores either became demons or saints.
Chu Qianxun didn’t have any shortcuts to evolve into a saint with supernatural powers.
Only in face-to-face battles with demons could she obtain the opponent’s crystal core and become a part of the first group of humans to break through.
She knew that her qualifications were not very good, but ten years of doomsday life taught her that avoiding it could only make herself weaker.
In the past, she fled from Huacheng to Ludao all the way hurriedly. Everything that would happen along the way was her opportunity now.
Chu Qianxun ate a large bowl of noodles in an old noodle restaurant.
She ate a slice of spicy and fragrant seafood noodles with bitterness.
After four days, the taste would be hard to come by.
The grandmother in charge of the cooking tapped the side of the pot with an iron spoon and said, “Beauty, eat slowly. You can get more noodles. We don’t charge money for adding noodles.”
Chu Qianxun lifted her bulging cheeks, “One more.”
She was going to take the plane back to Huacheng at 12 noon.
Chu Qianxun arrived at the airport early. She checked her watch, only to find that there was still an hour left.
She entered the gym at the airport and started exercising.
Her physique was really too bad. She couldn’t run a few steps without gasping. She did a few more flexions, extensions and squats, until the muscles of her hands and feet got overwhelmed.
But no matter how unbearable it was, it was better than dying on the way to escape.
After Chu Qianxun was reborn, she would do some physical exercises at any time.
She wanted to let her poor body adapt as soon as possible to escape four days later.
When the plane arrived in Huacheng, Chu Qianxun, who had just got off the plane, received a call from her cousin.
“Xunxun, I have arrived at the villa, and I got the key. It is indeed a bit far from home. Dad called mom for help. We plan to do what you said. Food and lodging is all resolved here. I looked at the project volume, and I should be able to do it in time.”
“Okay, you can live there with peace of mind. After you finish your work, you can take a picture and show it to me. If my classmate has no suggestions, you can withdraw. By the way, there may be a lot of express delivery to the villa these days. Once you receive it, just put it in the basement.”
Chu Qianxun, who was sitting in the taxi, said while making purchases on her phone.
Rice, instant noodles, biscuits, generator…
She didn’t even look at the details very much. Within the scope of the unobtrusive quantity, she desperately purchased all the necessities of life.
She would walk the road once again. Only if she could successfully become a saint on the and return to Ludao, could she arrange her future life with her aunt’s family. She would avoid those dangerous people and things, and live a better life.
If she died on the road, these materials could also support the aunt’s family hiding in the villa for a period of time. It could be regarded as a way for her to return favors.
Chu Qianxun glanced at her watch.
3:00 pm, 18th of March.
She walked into a private loan center.
Everything went according to plan.
There were four days left before the end.

It would be funny if the apocalypse did not come and she was stuck without a house and a loan.

When the exercise regimen is less than once a week, the body will usually have muscle aches on various un-trained parts. As CQX has been exercising at every chance she get for the last days and she expected no muscles aches hindering her at the start of doomsday to fight (or flee) the demon(s), Is it save to assume that she already has regular exercise routine in weekdays?
