Apocalypse Arrival - Chapter 7

At the moment when the apocalypse came, Chu Qianxun was frightened by the terrifying demons. She had no ambition. She only ran to her boyfriend who claimed to want to protect her forever.

Lu Zhehan indeed took her hand to flee with the crowd.

Chu Qianxun stumbled and fell to the ground. She stretched out her hand in panic to ask her boyfriend for help.

Of course, looking back now, Chu Qianxun also spurned her cowardly and incompetent self.

When she was most frightened, Lu Zhehan didn’t hesitate to shake off her hand and flee for his own life. The twisted face that looked back while running gave Chu Qianxun the first post-apocalyptic lesson.

If it wasn’t for Silly Fu to pass by and pull her, Chu Qianxun might have died there.

She smiled and avoided Lu Zhehan’s hand that was extended to her.

For Chu Qianxun, who was accustomed to seeing all kinds of ugly human nature in the apocalypse, Lu Zhehan was nothing at all. But it did not mean that she was still willing to waste precious time on such a person.

“Sorry Zhehan, I think we are not suitable for each other.”

Lu Zhehan’s face turned ugly, and he took Chu Qianxun’s hand, “Why?!”

“There is no reason.” Chu Qianxun broke away from his hand, “We are not a good fit. Classmate Lu, don’t make things too ugly.”

Lu Zhehan’s face was sullen. He looked at Chu Qianxun’s back who left mercilessly.

Obviously, only after two or three days this girl suddenly seemed to be a different person. Her whole aura was different.

A few days ago, he had clearly got this haughty flower in his hands. What caused this woman to completely change her attitude toward him in a short period of time?

***

Early in the morning on the 20th, Xiao Liu received a very young female customer in the car rental shop.

This client was still a college student at school, and got her driver’s license less than a month ago. She called the day before yesterday to make an appointment to rent a Hummer h1 for three days.

According to their rules, as long as the customer could provide a driver’s license and give a deposit, they had no reason to refuse the customer.

But Xiao Liu was still very worried. After receiving the female customer, he persuaded her, hoping that the young girl could change her mind and rent a model with stable performance which was good for a woman.

The female college student was wearing a simple casual shirt and a pair of light-colored jeans.

She jumped into the car, flicked her long hair, started the engine, stepped on the clutch, geared a series of actions and then raised her hand.

She turned the steering wheel with one hand to reverse the car cleanly, plus half a small drift.

Amid the rough sound of the Hummer’s motor, her innocent and immature face poked out from the car, “What model did you just ask me to rent?”

The domineering Hummer hurried away from the door of the rental car shop, raising dust all the way.

Xiao Liu’s colleague patted him on the shoulder, “So cool. She drove the car like a customer who has driven it for several years. What kind of car did you recommend for her to rent?”

Xiao Liu held up the folder and blocked his red face.

Chu Qianxun drove the rented Hummer all the way to the national highway on the outskirts of Huacheng, and parked the car in a small warehouse rented by the road.

She opened the trunk and neatly stacked boxes of compressed biscuits, drinking water and barrels of gasoline in the warehouse.

After the apocalypse came, the city roads would soon be blocked by traffic and it was basically impossible to drive out smoothly.

The highway would soon be paralyzed.

Only the national highway was the first to be cleared by the army, and it was barely passable.

So Chu Qianxun parked the car at the exit of the national highway.

As for whether she could reach the exit, or whether she could use this car when she went there was within her consideration.

For someone who had survived ten years after the apocalypse, the early apocalypse was actually a very friendly period for survivors.

At that time, most of the food was not spoiled, all kinds of living materials were well preserved, and vehicles and gasoline were almost everywhere.

The combat effectiveness of the newly born demons was still very low, and human beings still retained some basic order and morals.

It was a pity that her body was so weak at the moment.

Chu Qianxun sighed, and squeezed the limbs that had been sore after a few exercises.

Whether such a body could survive, it really depended on luck.

Suddenly,  Chu Qianxun’s phone rang.

When she picked up, her cousin’s voice came from the other end of the phone, “Hey girl.” 

Xu Xiangyang was squatting in the corner of the villa. He held the phone’s microphone with one hand, to block the sharp noise of the chainsaw cutting, “Is this family super rich? They bought so many things.”

“What happened?”

“Do you know? A worker sent two generators this morning, the kind used in hotels. They said that one would be installed and the other would be spare.” Xu Xiangyang said in an exaggerated tone, “A two hundred thousand generator! How many times can there be a power outage? They bought one and stored the other one.”

“Well, Is it being installed?”

“That’s right, there are several workers here. The workers said that the local tyrants have added a lot of money, and the only requirement is to be fast. Tsk tsk,” Xu Xiangyang deeply felt that he could not understand the world of the rich.

“By the way, I don’t know what they are using this house for. Since yesterday, people have been delivering goods, such as rice, instant noodles, biscuits, and quilts, everything is in a mess. It’s almost a mountain. My mother has been busy helping them pick up the goods all day long.”
