Xu Qingqing sat alone in her home, feeling an overwhelming sense of loneliness and helplessness. Her good friend, Zhang Manli, had already moved to the apartment across the street, and Ren Jie had returned to his own home. Ever since Sun Er's failed attempt to unlock the door, everyone had looked at her differently, as if she were a pariah.
This feeling was akin to being abandoned by the entire world. Xu Qingqing felt she could no longer bear the pressure and decided to end it all through suicide. Just as she was about to take action, a loud commotion erupted at her door.
"Boss, come quick! There's movement in this house; there must be someone inside!"
The door was suddenly flung open, and a group of men rushed in. One man, looking like a laborer, spotted Xu Qingqing and shouted excitedly, "Boss, it's a girl! And she's quite pretty!"
Xu Qingqing jumped in fright at the unexpected intruders, her heart racing as she stared at their unfamiliar faces. She had never seen these people before, and they clearly did not belong to her neighborhood. Confused, she wondered why so many strangers had appeared.
"Everyone step aside!" A burly man with a fierce expression pushed his way through the crowd and shouted. The others quickly parted for him; he must be the leader of this group.
"Boss, there's a girl here!" The laborer who first entered called out again, identifying himself as Ma Gou, nicknamed Ergouzi.
The muscular man stepped inside and stared at Xu Qingqing for a long time, drooling at the sight of her. "Not bad-looking at all! If it weren't for Lin Tianyu's past life, I wouldn't have been fooled!"
"You're really something!" The burly man leered at Xu Qingqing and said, "Beautiful lady, I'm Wang Jian from the Rice Field Community. Let's get to know each other."
"Another community?" Xu Qingqing asked in confusion.
She thought to herself: The snow is so thick; how did they manage to get here? Did the snow stop outside? Can we go out now?
Initially planning to commit suicide, Xu Qingqing felt no fear upon their arrival. However, when she learned they were from another community, hope and curiosity ignited within her, filling her with excitement. She decided to play up her charming demeanor to gather more information.
Thus, she quickly activated her sweet persona and said softly, "Hello, Brother Wang. My name is Xu Qingqing."
This sudden reaction left Wang Jian and his group momentarily stunned.
Wang Jian then boasted to his brothers, "Did you see that? This is my charm! You all should learn from me!"
The brothers in work uniforms exchanged lewd smiles and nodded eagerly at Wang Jian.
"Yes, yes, yes! The boss is incredibly charming, even I can't help but be captivated!" Xu Qingqing asked Brother Wang in a teasing tone, "The Rice Field Campus isn't exactly close to us. How far is it? How did you all get here?"
Wang Jian noticed that this girl was quite perceptive, so he explained to Xu Qingqing how they arrived. It turned out that these people were workers from a construction company. They had been working at a nearby site, and their boss had rented an entire building in the Rice Field Community for them as temporary accommodation.
However, an unexpected heavy snowfall had trapped them there. Wang Jian initially thought the snow would pass quickly, but to his surprise, it continued for several days without showing any signs of stopping. This left them unable to go out to buy necessary supplies or return to their hometowns.
Without sufficient warm clothing and food prepared, they found themselves in a difficult situation. To make matters worse, the authorities suddenly announced a power outage, which undoubtedly added to their troubles.
