Travel through famine years and awaken a post-apocalyptic survival system.

Zhao Qingsong had finished washing up and was getting dressed.

Seeing someone bring tea, he suddenly remembered something and called out, "Master, a cup of tea, not broken tea leaves, but proper tea leaves."

"Okay, one cent!"

Zhao Qingsong gave him the money and said, "You know Sun Guodong, right?"

Sun Guodong likes to soak in the bath for a while after scrubbing himself, and hasn't come out yet.

"I know him! Isn't that the head of the security department?"

"Give him the tea when he comes out. I'm also from the security department."

"Okay, I understand."

"Okay, thank you!"

Zhao Qingsong thanked him and then left the bathhouse.

……

It's already past nine o'clock.

Zhao Qingsong hesitated for a moment, but still went to the staff compound.

Since Shen Wanqing doesn't have a car, she'll probably walk there beforehand; she should be leaving soon.

With that in mind, I rode my bike toward the staff compound.

……

After taking a bath, Sun Guodong came out and went to his resting bed.

She was drying her hair with a towel.

"Section Chief Sun! Here's your tea!"

Sun Guodong was taken aback, looking at the empty teacup beside his bed: "Old Sun, I didn't order tea!"

"Oh, it was a young man who called out, saying he was also from your security department."

Sun Guodong realized who it was; it must be Zhao Qingsong.

That kid!

Despite his young age, he's quite experienced in his work!

He then laughed and said, "Okay, I know who it is. Put it there!"

Old Sun smiled as he placed the things there before leaving.

……

Under a streetlamp fifty meters outside the staff compound, Zhao Qingsong waited, smoking a cigarette.

"Damn, why is it so cold tonight!"

It's sunny during the day, but it's damn cold at night.

Fortunately, he didn't have to wait long before people started leaving the staff compound one after another; these were the people on the night shift.

They went to the factory in twos and threes, laughing and joking.

On the road, a lone figure walked towards them, wearing a woolen hat and a bright red scarf that covered his face completely.

Zhao Qingsong stared for a while until the other person walked towards him, and then he realized it was Shen Wanqing.

What are you doing here?

Shen Wanqing walked over, pulled off her scarf, and asked curiously.

Zhao Qingsong smiled and said, "Oh, you've used the car, so I'm here to return it!"

"Just give it to me tomorrow, no need to do it so late at night! It's so cold!"

Hearing this, Zhao Qingsong chuckled: "What's wrong? Feeling sorry for me?"

"You...you...how come you're acting like a scoundrel!"

Shen Wanqing glared at him, embarrassed and annoyed, and stormed off toward the steel plant.

Seeing this, Zhao Qingsong quickly pushed his bike and followed.

"Hey, so what if I'm a scoundrel? Besides, do you see me treating other people like this?"

After saying that, he sighed, "Sigh, I almost got injured while hunting. I thought you would feel sorry for me!"

His words made Shen Wanqing slow down.

She turned to look at him, and finally asked with concern, "Are you injured?"

"Fortunately, it wasn't too serious. I was hunting in the mountains when the district police station came to arrest enemy agents. I got involved and almost didn't make it back alive."

"Huh? It's not very serious? Where are you injured?"

Shen Wanqing's tone carried a hint of worry.

Seeing this, Zhao Qingsong smiled and said, "It's nothing, I just tripped and fell."

Hearing this, Shen Wanqing hesitated for a moment and said, "Next time you go hunting in the mountains, could you please not go alone? I've heard there are wolves in the mountains, and some people have even seen leopards there!"

Zhao Qingsong nodded slightly.

There are indeed leopards in these mountains, but their numbers are not very large.

There are certainly many wolves, but most of them live deep in the mountains and only come to the nearby mountains when they are starving.

Then, curiously, she asked, "How did you know I went alone? You said you didn't care about me!"

Shen Wanqing blushed slightly.

He snorted.

"Hmph, who cares about you? I heard it from Sister Li Hongmei."

After saying that, he walked towards the steel plant.

Zhao Qingsong pushed the cart behind, laughing, "Fine, you don't care about me anymore! Have you eaten yet?"

Shen Wanqing felt helpless upon hearing his words.

We can't go along with what this jerk is saying.

"Yes, I've already had lunch."

After Shen Wanqing finished speaking, she changed the subject and asked, "You ran into people from the district police station when you went into the mountains? What happened?"

"Oh, it's nothing, it's just..."

I gave a brief explanation of the situation.

Shen Wanqing was terrified when she heard this.

"How dare you! They have guns! What if you get shot?"

"I didn't think that much about it at the time!"

"Then be more careful next time, and don't be so impulsive."

"Okay, I got it!"

After Zhao Qingsong finished speaking, seeing that they had arrived at the steel plant gate, he took out an aluminum lunchbox: "Here, you can eat this when you have dinner later."

"No need, I brought my own lunch."

"Here you go! Look how skinny you are. There's meat in here. I hunted a wild boar today, and I estimate I'll get almost 20 pounds of meat."

Shen Wanqing hesitated for a moment, but still took it.

Seeing this, Zhao Qingsong returned the car to her: "Here, take the car. I don't need it for a while. I'll head back now!"

"Okay, be careful on the road in the dark."

Take the car and give me some instructions.

"OK!"

Zhao Qingsong agreed, then teased, "Hey, Wanqing, did what I said last time count as your agreement?"

"What?"

Shen Wanqing was puzzled for a moment, then realized what was going on.

She blushed slightly: "It hasn't been that long! I didn't agree to that."

"Ah, you've already kissed me and eaten me, so I can't refuse."

Upon hearing this, Shen Wanqing gave him a reproachful look: "Hmph, I didn't agree! I'm leaving."

After saying that, he snorted and pushed the cart to the factory.

Zhao Qingsong watched her departing figure and laughed.

It's not a big problem anymore.

"Go back! What are you standing here for? Aren't you cold?!"

Shen Wanqing had already entered the gate, and seeing that he was still there, she gave him a curt shout.

Seeing this, Zhao Qingsong quickly waved his hand and said, "It's alright, I'm not cold. With you here, my heart is warm."

"You...you're never serious."

Shen Wanqing blushed and fled in panic.

Zhao Qingsong watched her run far away before leaving with a smile.

I got home, and it was already quite late.

He went to check the feeding and breeding rooms to make sure there were no problems before going back to bed to sleep.

……

The next day, Zhao Qingsong woke up from his sleep.

I had something to do today, so I got up very early.

He also needed to inform his mother about the procedures to be completed today. This had to be done as soon as possible. He didn't go yesterday because the certificate wouldn't be available until 8:30, and going earlier wouldn't have made a difference.

After washing up, I went to the plant cultivation room as usual.

"Wow, it's growing way too fast!"

At this time, short-cycle vegetables such as cilantro, lettuce, bok choy, celery, and baby bok choy have grown quite large and are basically ready to eat.

They quickly picked off all the large seedlings, leaving only the small ones.

Tonight we can pick all the smaller ones and then replant them.

After finishing my work, I went to the next room.

The animal enclosure also surprised him.

A brown egg lying in the henhouse caught his attention.

"Damn it, I've been here so long and haven't seen a single egg. Finally, we have eggs to eat!"

Eggs are no longer available to the public, and you can hardly find any eggs.

He didn't specifically go out to collect the eggs.

"They're much smaller than domestic chickens; I wonder how many of them are hens."

Thinking I had things to do today, I put the eggs away and will eat them later when I've accumulated enough.

Only after finishing my work did I leave home.
