Zhang Yi let out a cold laugh. In his previous life he'd badly misread the storm. Thinking he was doing a favor, he'd handed out some hoarded supplies — and what did it buy him? Rumors that he still had a house full of goods, a break-in, a mob, and his death. He'd been eaten alive. Aunt Lin's lies and scheming had helped turn neighbors into wolves. The corner of his mouth lifted. He lazily left a voice message in the group: "Perfect timing — we've run out too. Aunt Lin, when you collect everyone's…-

Jiang Chuxue met Chen Xiao's steady gaze and felt her heart skip a beat. "I never noticed before — Sister Tang has good taste. Brother Chen Xiao is really handsome…" she murmured. Chen Xiao caught the adoring look and felt a quiet pleasure; her feelings seemed to have climbed to a new height. "Chen Xiao, what happened?!" Jiang Yunhan burst in, followed by the little monk. The moment he stepped inside and saw Jiang Chuxue he cried, "Chuxue!" Overjoyed, Jiang Yunhan hugged her tightly,…-

"Heh. What a joke." Xu Baichuan laughed, but it was cold, sharp — not anger, but contempt. He stared at Chen Xiao. "Do you even know who you're talking to?" "Of course." Chen Xiao's voice was calm, like a blade. "Young master of Jianghe Grain Warehouse." "So you know. Brave," Xu sneered. Jiang Chu Xue pressed her lips together and cried out, "Chen Xiao, Dashan isn't a match for the Xu family—" Xu cut her off with a mocking laugh. "Trying to make him run again? Does he think he can…-

Zhang Yi played games and munched on imported snacks, living like a king while the rest of Tianhai — maybe 99% of the world — staggered through blackouts and water shortages. Water was fixable: dig snow, melt it, boil it. Power was the killer. Modern bodies are soft; living at dozens of degrees below zero is a death sentence if you depend on plugged-in comforts. It wasn't exactly the government's fault. Power plants weren't broken so much as their crews were stuck or unable to work. Zhang…-

Three days after the doomsday, the real show finally began. Zhang Yi had been waiting all night. He knew what today would bring and stayed up to watch the drama unfold. It was simple and inevitable. The entire Yuelu Community suddenly lost power. Not long after, the power failure triggered a chain reaction: the water company couldn't keep pumping, the supply system failed, and every household lost water. None of this surprised Zhang. At the start of the catastrophe, no one could predict how…-

Zhang Yi feigned confusion, saying, "What's wrong? I didn't do anything bad!" Lin Caining said, "Are you stupid? The whole city's sealed off by snow now, and we've almost run out of food at home. If you send over some nice food right now, isn't this the perfect time to show your loyalty to Yuqing? If I were you, I'd send all the good stuff—steak, lobster, whatever you've got! Once Yuqing is moved, won't your chance come?" Zhang Yi looked at Lin Caining's message and could already picture that…-

In the owner group, Aunt Lin was still chattering incessantly."Did everyone see the news? Our country is capable and will handle this snow disaster perfectly!""Don't be nervous, all problems will be resolved easily.""By the way, if anyone needs supplies at home, those who can help should do so. This snow disaster will pass soon, so there's no need to hoard supplies." However, few responded. After two days with no sign of the snow disaster ending, people were starting to worry. Fang Yuqing sent…-

Jiang YunHan jabbed Chen Xiao twice in the ribs. No effect. Chen Xiao simply shoved him away and swaggered straight up to Sister Liu, one hand braced against the wall, the other threading through her hair. "Miss Liu, we've met before, haven't we?" he drawled. Sister Liu's eyes curved like laughing moons; she covered her red lips with a slender, snow-white hand. Chen Xiao's grin widened. Before he could charm further, Feng Jiafan pulled him aside. "Sister Liu, we have to meet Young Master…-

Chaos dies down like a storm losing its teeth. Chen Xiao and the others slip out of the warehouse building. The only thing left to remember the slaughter is a puddle of water on a rooftop mattress — a small, mute witness. "Where to now?" Jiang YunHan asks. At some point he's stopped deferring and started asking Chen Xiao what to do. Chen Xiao thinks for a beat. "Jianghe Grain Warehouse." Jiang nods. It's the obvious move. Between Jiangbei and Jiangnan runs the Menglong River — a twisting…-

Jiang Yunhan blinked, stunned by the exchange. He saw the kid's odd calm—those eyes with a steady, inward will. Even so, he had never expected the child to be so easily swayed by Chen Xiao. The little monk agreed to go, and Chen Xiao suddenly had a thousand ways to keep him. So the three survivors of the Choice Game sprint toward Nancheng Warehouse, cutting through the night. Chen Xiao can't help but wonder how a one-meter tall kid can carry such latent force—he runs almost as fast as Chen Xiao…-
