Building a skyscraper to survive, all the female colleagues in the company begged me to carry them.

The women looked at each other.

Peng Jie blushed and slowly raised her hand.

Su Qing's eyes lit up, and she leaned closer to whisper, "Peng Jie, if you feel it's too much, how about we switch?"

Peng Jie hesitated for a moment, then Jiang Jing'an's voice drifted over: "Little sister Su Qing, you can't break the rules of the game, okay?"

"If Peng Jie is unwilling, she can refuse; we will not force anyone."

Su Qing gritted her teeth in anger.

Peng Jie took a deep breath, walked up to Huang Tang, hesitated for a moment, and then sat down.

Pretending to know nothing, she blushed, straightened her back, and remained motionless.

Huang Tang pretended nothing had happened and calmly drank his juice.

Seeing Peng Jie's extremely uncomfortable expression, some of the women chuckled, some blushed, and some seemed lost in thought.

……

In the following game segment, Jiang Jing'an "shared the spoils equally".

She ordered Huang Tang to do various things with girls of different numbers.

Back to back, they hugged, whispered secrets in each other's ears, intertwined their fingers and gazed into each other's eyes for thirty seconds, forehead to forehead...

Huang Tang had to admire him.

Jiang Jing'an is truly my sweet little cotton-padded jacket!

There was only one person who wasn't mentioned at all, from beginning to end.

Su Qing!

From the first round to the last, Su Qing's number was never called.

She sat to the side, watching the other sisters interact with Huang Tang one by one. The expression on her face changed from expectation to disappointment, from disappointment to depression, and from depression to anger.

The game is over.

Su Qing finally snapped.

"Jiang Jing'an! Why didn't you call me?!"

Jiang Jing'an looked completely innocent: "I just randomly picked the numbers. Wasn't Su Qing among them?"

"Random?" Su Qing gritted her teeth. "Twenty-four numbers, and you deliberately missed mine? Do you think I'm stupid?"

"Maybe it was just bad luck," Jiang Jing'an said, shrugging. "Besides, given the relationship between Su Qing and Huang Tang, do they really need to use games to strengthen their bond?"

Su Qing was speechless.

"Of course not!" she said, sticking her neck out.

"That's it." Jiang Jing'an smiled. "Wouldn't it be better to leave such a good opportunity to someone else?"

Su Qing was so angry she couldn't speak.

Huang Tang watched the two bickering and shook his head with a smile.

He stood up and brushed the sand off his clothes.

"Alright, stop fooling around." He glanced at the distant sea. "It's getting late, and who knows what dangers lurk on the island at night. We should head back."

Although the women were still enjoying themselves, they dared not gamble with their safety.

They packed their things and entered the Anywhere Door in twos and threes.

……

Back in the house, the women went to their respective rooms to wash up.

The corridor gradually quieted down, leaving only Huang Tang and Jiang Jing'an.

"Brother Huang Tang, is there something you want to ask me?" Jiang Jing'an looked at him with a smile.

Huang Tang gets straight to the point:

"It's not surprising you know our number, considering you can synchronize your vision with insects. But how come you always manage to draw the King of Kings?"

Jiang Jing'an blinked and took a small insect out of her pocket.

The size of a grain of rice, black in color, crawled around on her fingertips.

"It's very simple."

A smile played on her lips. "I put this bug in the box and synchronized my vision with it, so I can clearly see which picture is the king. When it's time to draw, I can just take it directly."

It turned out to be like this...

Huang Tang shook his head with a sigh: "You've truly maximized the development of your talent."

"Didn't Brother Huang Tang like the game we just played?" Jiang Jing'an tilted her head, her eyes gleaming with mischief.

"like!"

Huang Tang laughed, "We should play more games like this in the future. Not only can it alleviate everyone's anxiety about the apocalypse, but it can also strengthen relationships—a win-win situation!"

Jiang Jing'an patted her chest and said, "Leave it to me."

Huang Tang stood up, ruffled her hair, and went back to his room.

……

After closing the door, Huang Tang leaned against the headboard, opened the system panel, and checked the requirements for the next house upgrade.

[Next stage: 18-story building → 25-story building]

【所需材料：二十五层楼房图纸×1、一级电力能源核心×1，钢材×10000、混凝土×15000、砖块×12000、玻璃×3000、木材×3000】

Huang Tang frowned.

This time, in addition to the blueprints, there's something else extra.

A primary power energy core!

What is this? He had never seen it before.

Judging from the name, this device might be able to supply electricity to the house.

By then, we won't have to be completely in the dark at night anymore.

"Primary power energy core..."

Huang Tang muttered to himself, opened the system and searched, but found no explanation.

It seems the only options are to open it from a treasure chest or buy it from the bell-keeper.

He glanced at his survival coins balance: 3651!

He immediately felt much more confident!

However, the situation regarding materials is not so optimistic.

Today we were promoted two levels in a row, and the stockpiled materials were almost used up, with only a little over two thousand units left.

Some of these are fabrics and cotton that cannot be used for home upgrades.

The only thing that reassured him was that the floodwaters had only reached the fifth floor, and there was still a long way to go before reaching the eighteenth floor.

There is plenty of time, no need to rush.

Huang Tang was about to turn off the control panel and rest when someone knocked on the door.

"Knock knock knock".

"Who?"

"I."

Su Qing's voice came from outside the door, soft and gentle, with a hint of nervousness.

Huang Tang opened the door.

Su Qing stood at the door, wearing a very simple white dress. The hem of the dress reached just to her knees, and the waist was tightly fitted, outlining her slender curves.

Her hair was loose over her shoulders, and she wore light makeup.

"Is something the matter?" Huang Tang asked.

Su Qing didn't answer directly, but took half a step forward and looked up at him.

"Brother Huang Tang, do you remember what happened this morning when the house was being upgraded?"

Huang Tang certainly remembered.

At that moment, Su Qing was sitting on his lap. The building shook violently, and their bodies were jolted along with it.

During those few seconds of tremor, he seemed to...

"I've been wanting to ask you this," Huang Tang said somewhat embarrassedly, "did you hurt yourself this morning?"

Su Qing's face turned even redder.

She lowered her head. "Could you take a look for me... I'm not feeling well."

Huang Tang swallowed hard.

"Front or back?"

You'll see when you see it.

Huang Tang stepped aside, and Su Qing lowered her head and quickly walked into the room.

Huang Tang closed the door and locked it.
