Ice Apocalypse (Season 1)

Chapter 172: Generously Gifting a Garage

Uncle You couldn't believe it when he heard that Zhang Yi was bringing his wife to visit, and he eagerly got out of bed at once.
Zhang Yi glanced outside and said, "She's right outside!"Uncle You felt a bit embarrassed at the revelation. "Zhang Yi, have you told her about our situation at home?"Zhang Yi was speechless. As expected of a bachelor in his forties, he was feeling awkward at a time like this. Well, who wouldn't feel awkward?"It's fine, she knows everything. She's willing to live with you," Zhang Yi said, giving him a look.Uncle You hesitated but was eventually pulled by Zhang Yi, and they went out together. In the living room, Zhou Keren and Zhou Haimei were engrossed in their conversation.Hearing the commotion, Zhou Haimei turned to look. When Uncle You saw Zhou Haimei clearly, he was momentarily puzzled, but then he remembered who she was and widened his eyes in surprise."Are you... Zhou Haimei?" he asked.Seeing the honest and dark-skinned man in front of her, Zhou Haimei sighed lightly from an aesthetic standpoint. The man before her was not her type. However, she had no choice at the moment.Standing up generously, Zhou Haimei walked over and smiled, "Hello, you must be Mr. You, right?"Uncle You nodded rapidly, looking like an emotionless pile driver.Zhang Yi intervened, "You two have met today. In the future, living together, taking care of each other, and helping each other with various troubles are necessary.""No need for formalities; I won't say much," Zhang Yi continued. "Consider this house as your marital home. You two can live here peacefully. My wife and I will temporarily move out, not to disturb your private world."Zhang Yi didn't want to play the cliché scenes of blind dates, saving time. Moreover, he could see from Uncle You's excited eyes that he hoped for a private conversation with Zhou Haimei. Uncle You, upon hearing that Zhang Yi was leaving the house for him, felt somewhat uneasy."How... How should I put this? This house is your hard work!"Zhang Yi replied, "I found a new place, and it's a waste to leave this one empty, right? You living here is like taking care of my home. I can rest assured."Most of Zhang Yi's memories in the Yue Lu community were bloodstained. Though he had mostly killed those who deserved it, there were also cases of accidental harm. Leaving this place and living in a different environment was necessary for his mental health.Leaning close to Uncle You, Zhang Yi smirked, "Moreover, living together now makes some things inconvenient, right?"Uncle You licked his dry lips and nodded repeatedly, indicating that Zhang Yi was right. Zhou Haimei also nodded in agreement.The house was very comfortable to live in, equipped with a fireplace and a perfect heating system. Living here as a couple was far better than her luxurious mansion at Yun Que Manor.Zhang Yi instructed Zhou Keren, "Pack your things; I'll take you to the new home later!"Zhou Keren happily nodded and went back to her room to pack. Zhang Yi called Uncle You aside to discuss other matters."Before we leave, there are some things I need to tell you," Zhang Yi said."Firstly, about the supernatural abilities, you need to train and explore them yourself. They have enormous potential for improvement. The stronger your abilities, the better your self-defense capabilities.""Secondly, personal safety. You must not show any mercy to the neighbors in this community. In the past month, you've seen the complexity of human nature. Do not easily trust them, let alone sympathize with them."Zhang Yi pointed in Zhou Haimei's direction, "Especially, do not let a woman influence your thinking. A man with strength won't lack women; you must understand who the head of the family is!"Uncle You nodded repeatedly, but whether he took it to heart would be seen later.Soon, Zhou Keren finished packing her personal items. She didn't have many personal belongings, but the various stockings and lingerie Zhang Yi had given her filled a suitcase.Zhang Yi stored her things in the spatial dimension. Before leaving, he filled the kitchen with enough food for Uncle You and Zhou Haimei for at least two months. The issue of food after that would be Uncle You's responsibility. He was now an ability user and couldn't always rely on Zhang Yi.Leaving the house, Zhang Yi took a last look at his home. This safe house cost 8 million Hua coins, helping him survive multiple crises. Now, it seemed small and crude, but the memories of the past month would be unforgettable.Zhang Yi touched the heavy metal door and smiled contentedly.Uncle You and Zhou Haimei escorted them downstairs. Before leaving, Zhang Yi glanced at the snowmobile.Smiling, he said to Uncle You, "In the future, when you go out to find food, you need transportation. You can have this motorcycle!""If you have time, you can also visit me."In case Zhang Yi encountered trouble in the future and needed Uncle You's help, having the motorcycle would allow him to arrive promptly.Uncle You was moved by Zhang Yi's generosity, tears welling up in his eyes. He repeatedly waved his hands to refuse."No, this is absolutely not okay! Zhang Yi, you've given me too much already. I... I can't accept more!"Zhang Yi earnestly said, "Think about the future.""But if you give this to me, what will you do?" Uncle You couldn't help but worry.Zhang Yi shrugged, "I can make do with something less."He walked to the door, a white light flashed in his right eye, and suddenly, a four-wheel snow vehicle appeared on the snowy ground.It was a snow car, not a snow motorcycle.The silver-gray streamlined body was no less appealing than a supercar. Red sleds were on the front sides, and below them, three wheels and a track formed the chassis.The interior space was large, accommodating people in both front and rear rows very comfortably.Ignoring the underlying structure, it was essentially a supercar!Its appearance, compared to the snow motorcycle nearby, was significantly different. It was like the difference between a Ferrari and a Suzuki motorcycle!Uncle You, Zhou Haimei, and Zhou Keren were all somewhat dumbfounded.Hey, can you call this 'making do'?Zhang Yi sighed and said to Uncle You, "Regretfully parting with my beloved motorcycle, I'll give you this one. I can barely manage this!""I really don't like this thing; it consumes too much fuel. But there's no choice; we are good friends!"Uncle You: Uh, right!He pursed his lips, and in his heart, countless grass-mud horses were galloping.Is this the advantage of spatial ability users? It made him envious!
