"What are you standing there stunned for? Go and sort it out!"
Seeing Wang Hao standing there in a daze, the colleague at the bottom of the rung frowned and urged him.
"Hiss———"
Wang Hao took a light breath, and the smile on his face faded. He looked at the three of them, sowhat irritated:
"I say, are you guys brain-dead? Have you figured out the situation? Why should I help you? Why should I provide for your food and shelter?"
"Wang Hao, what do you an by this? We’re colleagues, aren’t we?"
"Exactly, we’re old classmates! Now it’s the apocalypse, we should be supporting each other."
"Wang Hao! Back at the company, I was nice to you, I even bought you bubble tea, rember?"
...
The three of them instantly beca unhappy, chattering away.
Even the people behind them also began to criticize Wang Hao.
"Wang Hao, that’s wrong of you, we’re all friends here, you should help if you can! Even if they’re strangers, don’t you help people in need?"
"Yeah! I heard you were a pretty decent person, how can you be so cold-blooded! Really chilling."
"We’re not freeloading, once the post-disaster reconstruction and banking systems are back, we’ll pay you back."
...
Wang Hao’s scalp tingled as he listened.
Good grief, this kind of mindless moral blackmail, he had only seen in videos.
He never expected he’d encounter it himself.
Indeed! Reality is often more absurd than fiction.
"Quit your damn yapping."
Wang Hao was a bit fired up, his gaze sharpened as he looked at the bottom-rung colleague:
"Collegiality? How do I rember it was you all who voted to push out back then?"
Having said that, he turned to the female colleague:
"I rember you bought bubble tea to repay for the al I bought you, right? If you do the math, you still owe ."
"Those are trivial matters, are you so petty? Still nitpicking over here."
The bottom-rung colleague accused angrily.
"Exactly, it’s a matter of ten bucks, and you’re a guy still counting it here? Do you have any guts at all? Are you still a man? Truly unlucky."
The female colleague also expressed her exasperation.
The people at the back also looked at Wang Hao with disdain.
"I rember I already reminded you all to stockpile supplies, you just didn’t listen and treated like a lunatic.
I’ve done my best for you, on what grounds do you co whining to ?"
Having said this, Wang Hao turned to Zhang Ming, coldly saying:
"Zhang Ming, you tead up with Zhou Chenggong and Zhang Xiaoxiao to trap once, and I haven’t even accounted for that.
And you’re here talking about schoolmate friendship?
I clearly rember reminding you all to prepare supplies at that gathering too, didn’t I?
Haven’t I done enough?"
Zhang Ming and the others fell silent.
Wang Hao was right.
He indeed had reminded them to stockpile supplies.
Especially his two colleagues; he even specified what to stockpile.
If they’d followed Wang Hao’s advice back then and stocked up, they wouldn’t be having such a hard ti now.
The female colleague squeezed her fists, looking up at Wang Hao, her eyes filled with hatred.
How had she gotten through this period?
It was by sleeping her way through with her body!
She didn’t even know how many people she’d been with.
As long as soone offered her food, she’d sleep with them.
If she had stocked up on supplies, she wouldn’t have ended up like this!
"Why didn’t you clarify things? Why didn’t you explain it to us? If you really wanted to help us, why not just give us so supplies?"
She roared at Wang Hao.
There was no gratitude towards Wang Hao, quite the opposite; she resented him deeply.
She blad all her misfortune on Wang Hao.
"Exactly, you expect us to believe just because you blabbed a sentence? Are you crazy? If you really wanted to help, you should have persuaded us properly or given us sothing."
The bottom-rung colleague also expressed his great dissatisfaction.
"Ha ha!"
Wang Hao chuckled coldly, it must be said, the nature of humans can be frightening indeed.
Reality is often more absurd than novels.
So people just love being unreasonable, using moral blackmail, throwing tantrums, making false accusations, and causing a stir to gain so benefit.
All in all, it’s the crying baby that gets the milk.
"Alright, I’m just that kind of cold and ruthless person, okay?
The earlier reminder was already a full stop for our past relationship.
I won’t be providing any help to you."
Wang Hao did not get angry.
Position determines perspective.
Now he had no heart to bother with these people.
Would humans argue and quarrel with little ants?
"Wang Hao, you haven’t handed over your food and dicines yet, have you?"
Suddenly, Zhang Ming lowered his voice, speaking so only the few of them could hear.
His words caught Wang Hao off guard.
"Hmph!"
Seeing Wang Hao’s reaction, Zhang Ming was certain Wang Hao hadn’t gone nuts and hadn’t handed everything over.
Now he was completely at ease!
"You might not be able to hide the food, but that batch of dicine, you can hide.
Both you and I know how precious those things are now, and if I expose it, you know the consequences."
Zhang Ming lowered his voice to threaten.
Wang Hao blinked, finally understanding.
No wonder these people were so confident, so audacious!
Turns out this was what they were counting on!
Indeed!
These guys were thinking correctly.
If the villa area got taken over by the military, his previous food storage would surely be exposed.
When he was hoarding supplies earlier, many people in the villa district could see.
This was unavoidable.
But the dicines were different.
They could see Wang Hao bringing supplies in, but couldn’t check item by item, right?
Besides, no one would even think in that direction.
How could an ordinary person stockpile a large amount of various dicines before the apocalypse?
Even if he had that intention, he wouldn’t have the ability, would he?
So as long as Wang Hao wasn’t foolish, he’d surely keep the dicines a secret.
With these dicines, he could practically be a wealthy man in this end-of-the-world.
"Wang Hao, let us in, properly take care of us, and we’ll keep your secret.
Otherwise, it’s going to be mutual destruction."
Zhang Ming continued to threaten.
Control!
He planned to control Wang Hao, and once inside, using this leverage, he would have Wang Hao firmly under his thumb.
Then whatever he wanted, Wang Hao would have to give.
Finally, he planned to slowly squeeze Wang Hao dry, turning everything Wang Hao had into his own.
Coupled with these people around him, they could surely thrive in this settlent.
The two colleagues, a man and a woman, gleaming with a mocking look in their eyes.
It was as if they were certain they had Wang Hao at their rcy.
