Transmigration: Experiencing Life's End - Dying Peacefully in One's Sleep

Chapter 851 Extreme Apocalypse 15

When she got up for lunch, she received extra concerned looks from everyone.

"What's wrong? Why is everyone looking at me like that?"

Li Xinyan asked cautiously, "It's nothing, Sister Tong. How did you sleep last night?"

Hearing this, Ruan Chutong nodded: "It's fine, I just slept for a long time and couldn't get up in the morning."

She didn't mention that she stayed up all night.

Hearing her say that, everyone's eyes became even more concerned and worried, thinking that she didn't want to make everyone worry, so she didn't tell the truth.

Even Li Yanjing's eyes showed a worry that was clearly different from her usual expressionless demeanor.

Last night, seeing how quickly she did it, I didn't think much of it, but I guess she must have been a little unaccustomed to it.

Seeing this, Ruan Chutong was not oblivious and immediately realized that they felt they were still traumatized by what happened yesterday.

"You don't think I couldn't sleep last night because I was scared, do you?"

"Isn't that right?" Li Xinyan asked, biting her chopsticks as she looked at her.

Tong Jie looks like she stayed up all night; she must be very scared.

Xu Zhenzhu also imagined many things about her daughter having insomnia because of fear, and regretted not insisting on staying with her last night.

"Tongtong, I'll sleep with you tonight."

Li Dayuan quickly chimed in, "Yes, let your mother accompany you, and let Yan Yan come too. The more people there are, the less afraid you'll be."

Looking at Li Yanjing and Li Xinyan, they both gave each other approving looks.

Ruan Chutong smiled and explained again, "Really, there's no need. I'm really fine and not scared at all."

She had to explain herself quite a bit before she could dispel everyone's concerns.

It's truly remarkable how harmonious and well-behaved blended families are, given everyone's concern.

The main reason is that there are no troublemakers or petty people in the family.

Bang-bang-bang

"Mom, Uncle Li, Xinyan, Brother Li, wake up, come out quickly!"

In the middle of the night, while everyone was still fast asleep, Ruan Chutong knocked on everyone's doors and called for help.

Upon hearing the sound, the group opened their eyes, sat up, and began to dress.

Li Yanjing was the fastest; he rushed out of the room with only half of his down jacket on.

Stepping out of the living room, I saw Ruan Chutong tidying up her things.

With a wave of her hand, everything in the living room, including the furniture, vanished.

He walked over and asked, "What's wrong? Why so suddenly?"

"An earthquake is coming, Brother Li. Go and wake up the Gao family. I'll pack up my things at home first and then go over there to pack up. We have to leave immediately."

Although Li Yanjing was puzzled as to how she knew, now was not the time to ask, so he nodded and ran next door.

The Li family father and daughter, along with Xu Zhenzhu, also rushed out in a hurry.

They had all heard what Ruan Chutong had just said.

"Tongtong, do you think we're about to have an earthquake?"

Ruan Chutong nodded: "Yes, get dressed and pack some things to take with you. Be quick."

Upon hearing this, the group realized what was going on and immediately went to get the packaging materials, knowing that they were used to conceal the space.

Ruan Chutong followed them into their room and packed everything into the space, including the insulation material for the windows and walls.

After the four people walked out of the house, Li Yanjing and the Gao family also stood at the elevator entrance.

They also thought about bringing things, and everyone carried a bag.

Upon seeing Ruan Chutong, Gao Mingcheng quickly said, "Sister Chutong, we'll have to trouble you with our things."

Ruan Chutong nodded, and without saying a word, went straight into the Gao family's house to collect her belongings. Then she ran downstairs with everyone else.

Their running around was quite loud, which naturally woke up the people resting in the hallway.

"What are you doing in the middle of the night? Are you being chased by a ghost?"

"Are they carrying luggage? Are they leaving? Does that mean the 30th floor is ours now?"

"Where are you going? Why are you in such a hurry?" someone asked, sensing something was amiss.

Seeing so many people, Gao Mingcheng still reminded them, "An earthquake is coming. If you don't run now, it will be too late."

"What? An earthquake? How is that possible?"

Li Xinyan retorted, "Believe it or not, if you don't run, you're just waiting to die."

Most people didn't believe it, and they were afraid they would freeze to death if they went outside.

They were already starving every day, and if they went outside, they would either freeze or starve to death.

Some people were more cautious. Seeing that the people on the 30th floor didn't seem to be joking, they started packing their things and ran after them.

When the Li and Gao families reached the exit on the 20th floor, the entire building began to shake, and the ground started to tremble.

Ruan Chutong pulled Xu Zhenzhu, who almost lost her balance, back: "Mom, be careful."

Xu Zhenzhu was pale, partly due to exhaustion from rushing downstairs, and partly due to being frightened by the earthquake.

"Okay, Mom's alright, let's run quickly."

"Pearl, how about I carry you on my back?" Li Dayuan was also a little worried about her.

"No need, hurry up, I can still manage. We'll talk about it later when I really can't run anymore."

Upon hearing this, Li Dayuan could only pull her away and run.

Seeing that the two were alright, Ruan Chutong pulled Li Xinyan, who was running slower, along with the Gao family members, who were being led by Gao Mingcheng.

Li Yanjing led the way, and after they ran out of the building, they headed out of the residential area.

Because the building was shaking, everyone knew that an earthquake was really coming, and they all started running outside in a panic.

The earthquake was faster than anyone imagined. Before anyone could even leave the neighborhood, the tall buildings behind them collapsed like building blocks.

Many people who reacted slowly, or who were reluctant to leave their belongings behind and ran slowly, were trapped in the rubble before they could escape the building.

It was also dangerous for Li Yanjing to lead the way, as she had to constantly dodge flying debris from collapsing buildings.

They had just run out of the residential area to the gate when, because the ice was very slippery, everyone was suddenly jolted to the ground by the ground.

Seeing that everyone else had fallen, Ruan Chutong felt it would be too conspicuous for her to be standing alone, so she also lay down at the same time.

I also had a chance to check on everyone, and I was relieved to find that everyone was alright.

A series of loud bangs came from behind. When everyone turned around, they saw that the people who had run to the back were being crushed by the houses that had suddenly collapsed on both sides.

Everyone was stunned for a moment, and then burst into sharp screams.

"Ah—ah—ah, my son."

"Mom, Mom~"

"Help! Someone, please!"

Although since the end times, everyone has become accustomed to a life without order, and everyone has become indifferent and heartless.

But at this moment, many people were still involuntarily affected by these heart-wrenching cries.

Some people couldn't help but wipe away tears when they thought of themselves or their families.

Ignoring what was happening behind her, Ruan Chutong pulled Li Xinyan, who was overwhelmed with grief, to her side.

"Stop looking, we need to get out of here quickly and find a spacious place."

Upon hearing this, Li Yanjing also turned her gaze away from what was behind her: "Yes, it's not safe here yet."

Both families came to their senses and continued running out of the residential area.
