I'm Hoarding for the Apocalypse Chapter 115 Little Zuo and I Are Very Close

115 Little Zuo and I Are Very Close

He Xing refilled the oil barrel with the gasoline they drew the day before, then beckoned Du Yue to get into the car. The car was warmed for a full five minutes before it was successfully started. He Xing held the steering wheel as the car slowly drove down the road. Along the way, they could see many people walking in the snow. When their car pa.s.sed by, many people would look up.

There was envy, jealousy, and resentment in their eyes. Du Yue was neither interested nor had the time to guess what these people were thinking. It was too cold outside. She just wanted to get this done with and go home as soon as possible.

Half an hour later, He Xing parked the car in front of a building. The building looked like it had existed before the apocalypse. The decorations were exquisite, and it even had central heating. Even though Du Yue did not get out of the car with He Xing, she could hear the sound of the heater’s condenser working.

Du Yue could not help but feel a little envious when she heard this sound. How nice it would be if she had central heating. However, this idea was unrealistic. It was already good enough that they could use electricity now. If she really installed central heating, the electricity would probably trip every day. He Xing did not ask Du Yue to follow him in, and Du Yue was happy to wait in the car. She did not want to get out of the car anyway. Although there were no signs outside the building, there were people going in and out of it, and they were all dressed in the same way. It seemed that this was also an office of the base.

Du Yue was getting bored from waiting when she heard someone knocking on the window. She turned around and saw a man standing next to the car, looking inside. Du Yue rolled down the car window and asked the man, “Is there anything I can help you with?”

“I’m fine. I just saw that your car has been parked here for a while. Do you have something you need to do here? Maybe I can help you.” The man’s tone was rather humble and polite, but Du Yue could also hear the arrogance that was unintentionally revealed in his words.

Otherwise, he would not have said that he could help before Du Yue had even told him why she was here. Du Yue shook her head. “Thank you, but there’s nothing I need help with.” No matter what the man’s purpose was, he was still polite, so Du Yue was also polite to him.

As Du Yue was speaking, the man had already sized her up from head to toe. After sizing her up, his eyes were brighter than before. “You’re welcome. I basically know everyone in this building and have some connections. If you have anything you need to do, you can tell me. I should be able to help.” As the man spoke, his brows were filled with pride.

As long as women heard that he was close to the base’s officials, they would want to cling to him and not let him go. Therefore, he believed that the woman in front of him would be no exception.

However, taking a step back, those women from before could not be compared to this one. Although he had never seen this woman before, he could tell from her car and clothes that she must be someone of high status. If he could get a woman like her, his life would be complete.

Just the thought of it made him happy. Seeing that Du Yue did not respond for a long time, the man said, “Why aren’t you saying anything? You really don’t have to be so polite with me…”

Du Yue looked at the shrewdness in the man’s eyes that could not be hidden and finally understood his little trick. Hearing the man’s urging, she smiled faintly. “I’m not being polite with you. It’s just that you can’t help me with what I have to do.”

“You haven’t even told me what it is. How do you know I can’t help? I’m not bragging, but there’s nothing in this base that I can’t do.”

“Wow, you’re that powerful?”

“Haha, I guess so!”

“Do you know a captain called Zuo Mingdong in the base?”

“Oh, you’re talking about Little Zuo! We’ve known each other for a long time. Why? Are you looking for him?”

“Yes, yes! He owes me 10,000 contribution points. If you can, I’ll have to trouble you to look for him and help me get my 10,000 contribution points.”

“What? H-How many contribution points? 10,000?” The man’s face was filled with disbelief. “Are you joking with me?”

Du Yue shook her head. “Why would I lie to you about something like this? If it’s true and you tell Captain Zuo, won’t I be exposed?”

The man felt that her words made sense. Du Yue urged him again, “Then, can you help me get the contribution points from Captain Zuo?”

“This…” The man looked troubled. When he met Du Yue’s clear and innocent eyes, he quickly waved his hands. “I suddenly remembered I didn’t turn off the electricity at home. I have to go home to turn it off, so I can’t help you!”

The man said in a hurry and turned to run. However, just as he turned around, he saw Zuo Mingdong less than two meters behind him. The man was sizing him up with his arms crossed.
