Du Yue closed the lid. “I’ll take this. Thank you.”

“Well, it’s good that you find it useful.”

Du Yue glanced at the watch on her wrist. The hour hand was already pointing at four. Although there were curtains blocking them, Du Yue knew that the sky was starting to brighten.

“It’s four o ‘clock. If there’s nothing else, I’ll go back,” Du Yue said.

“Alright, I’ll send you off,” He Xing said as he followed Du Yue to the corridor. Du Yue did not understand why there was a need to send her off since they were just living next door. After she got home, she put the two sets of clothes aside and tidied up the boxes in the living room.

Since she had taken out the boxes in front of He Xing, Du Yue decided not to put them back into the space. She simply left them in the living room. Anyway, she was usually either in the bedroom or the kitchen at home. There was nothing to do in the living room.

After tidying up the living room, Du Yue went to the bathroom to take a shower and then returned to her bedroom. She was very tired, so she did not plan to cook anymore. She returned to the bedroom and sat down at the small table. Du Yue took out a bowl of liangpi from her interspace. In addition to liangpi, she also took vinegar roujiamo. The vinegar-flavored roujiamo was a perfect match for the liangpi. Du Yue was satisfied after taking a bite of the refreshing liangpi and a bite of the roujiamo with gravy.

Du Yue was not in a hurry to sleep after she finished her food. Instead, she sat on the bed and looked at the heater near the window. Du Yue had bought quite a few of these heaters. In addition to the charcoal-burning heater in the bedroom, Du Yue also had an electric heater, an electric blanket, and a water-heated blanket that heated up quickly as well as other types of heaters. She even bought several large boxes of heating pads. She also had charcoal, wood, and straw that could be used to start a fire. There were countless of them.

Even though Du Yue was well-prepared, she thought of the extremely cold weather. If a person were to be frozen in their house, even their breath would freeze immediately. She could not help but shiver, and goosebumps appeared on his body. At that moment, Du Yue suddenly remembered the two boxes she had brought back from He Xing’s house. Du Yue had been too busy cleaning up the living room to open the boxes and take a closer look at the clothes inside.

Du Yue brought the boxes in, opened the lids, and took out the clothes inside. The clothes looked like gray thermal underwear. They were much thinner than ordinary thermal underwear to the touch. However, after Du Yue touched them carefully, she was surprised to discover the uniqueness of the clothes.

She did not know what material the clothes were made of, but it was a material that Du Yue had never seen before in all her life. It was a little similar to the material He Xing was wearing when she first met him. Du Yue put her hand into her clothes. Not long after, she felt her hand heat up slightly, and it was getting hotter and hotter.

Even before the apocalypse, there were already many thermal underwears that claimed to be able to generate heat by themselves. They used high-tech fabrics to promote their products, but when she bought them, she found that they were just gimmicks. However, the two sets of clothing that He Xing had given Du Yue really did heat up on their own.

When she recalled that the clothes were made by He Xing, Du Yue was no longer surprised. If she had gotten the clothes from someone else, she would have tried to trace the source. Since that person was He Xing, however, then she would just forget it. The two of them were getting along quite well now, so it was better not to pry into other people’s secrets.

Du Yue took out the two sets of thermal underwear, washed them, and hung them in the living room. The sun was already out, and the temperature was very high. Du Yue’s clothes would probably be dry by the time she woke up in the evening.

As expected, Du Yue’s clothes were completely dry when she woke up. The weather was hot now, so she did not need these two sets of clothing for the time being. Du Yue put them away in her interspace. After packing the clothes, Du Yue washed up and went to the kitchen.

Du Yue took out a pig’s trotter from her interspace, planning to make braised pork trotters with soybeans. The most important step in making braised pork trotters with soybeans was heat control. Du Yue had no lack of time, so she was patient. She stewed the meat over a small fire, and the kitchen was soon filled with the aroma of the meat. It was not until the sky outside was getting dark that Du Yue finally finished stewing a large pot of braised pork trotters with soybeans. She took out a double-layered container from her interspace. One layer was filled with meat, while the other was filled with rice. Du Yue put the container and the rest of the stewed trotters into her interspace. She then went to take a shower to wash away the thick meaty scent on her body. She changed her clothes and walked to the door.
