82 Why Do You Have Such Hostility Toward Me?

She took the food out of her interspace to eat. Although the smell was still there, it was not very obvious. However, if she were to heat up food with strong smells, the fragrance would spread from the seventh floor to the first floor. Especially after the apocalypse, everyone's sense of smell had become more sensitive after a long period of hunger. When the smell of the hare hotpot spread, it would attract the attention of many people.

Du Yue wanted to live her life in peace, so she tried to avoid contact with others as much as possible. She usually warned herself to keep a low profile in everything she did.

Although she could not eat noodles that were a perfect match for the hare hotpot, Du Yue was still very satisfied with the meal. It was already past seven o'clock in the evening by the time she cleaned the table after dinner. Du Yue took out an electric foot bath bucket and turned it on. She soaked her feet in it comfortably for more than half an hour. Soaking one's feet in hot water could not only promote sleep but also help blood circulation. Especially when the weather was cold, soaking one's feet would make one feel warm and comfortable from the bottom to the top.

After soaking her feet and washing up, Du Yue was already in bed at nine o'clock. Perhaps it was because she had spent a lot of energy that day, Du Yue fell asleep not long after she got into bed. When Du Yue opened her eyes again, it was already seven in the morning the next day. She had slept for ten hours, and all her fatigue had disappeared.

The most important thing to do after waking up was to add charcoal to the furnace. After a night, the charcoal in the furnace had burned to the bottom. Fortunately, the heaters were always on, so the temperature in the room did not change much.

Du Yue was no longer using her mini-heater all day long. The air was too dry as she constantly kept it on. Only when she came back from outside and was freezing would she turn it on for a while to help warm herself up.

After washing up, Du Yue put the bed and carpet into her interspace and began her daily training as usual. After three hours of training, she did not sweat at all, probably because the temperature was too low. At the thought that all the resources were getting scarcer by the day, Du Yue did not take a bath. Instead, she changed her clothes.

It was already past ten o'clock when she took out the bed and carpet. She took out a bowl of soy milk, two deep-fried dough sticks, and a piece of sizzling beef pie from her interspace.

After the meal, Du Yue had just cleaned up the table when she heard someone banging on the iron gate in the corridor. Du Yue did not hesitate at all. She immediately put on her coat, a hat, a mask, and a pair of gloves before she walked out quickly. Just as she walked out of her house, she saw He Xing, who was next door, opening his door and walking out.

The two of them looked at each other. Without even greeting each other, they quickly walked a few steps to the stairs and looked in the direction of the iron gate. As expected, there was a person standing in front of the iron gate. They were wrapped tightly, only revealing their eyes. Just by looking at their appearance, not to mention their appearance but even their gender was hard to guess. However, judging from the person's build, it should be a woman. Du Yue looked at her. Do you have something to say?

Hello! I'm the neighbor who just moved to the sixth floor. My name is Wang Tong! I didn't have anything to do today, so I came over to say hello. We'll be neighbors from now on, so let's get to know each other.

He Xing and Du Yue did not greet her and just exchanged glances.

Both of them saw doubt and vigilance in each other's eyes. Even before the apocalypse, it was normal to not know the gender of the person living next door for several years after moving into the new house. There was not much contact between neighbors in the city. Moreover, it was already the apocalypse. Everyone was busy trying to settle their own food and clothing, so no one would deliberately inform their neighbors after moving in.

It had been a while since Du Yue moved in, and she only talked to He Xing. However, she had known He Xing for a long time before that, which was why she had more contact with him. The others that Du Yue knew were the middle-aged woman's family who used to live on the sixth floor. The woman's family of three had obviously coveted Du Yue's supplies, and they did not expect to end up freezing to death in their own home.

Now when Du Yue saw this woman called Wang Tong approaching her with a fervent look on her face, Du Yue subconsciously raised her eyebrows.

Excuse me? Did you guys hear what I said? Seeing that the two of them did not speak for a long time, Wang Tong spoke again.

Du Yue snapped out of her thoughts and looked at Wang Tong indifferently. I heard you. Do you have anything else to say?

Ahem. Wang Tong's voice sounded aggrieved. We just met. Why are you so hostile toward me?
