Chapter 263 - 263 Doing This Will Incur the Wrath of Heaven263 Doing This Will Incur the Wrath of Heaven
Hearing what Ah Ping said, Du Yue shook her head. “I wouldn’t have gone no matter how many times I was offered. I’m not interested in that position.” She was not concerned about her appearance. If she were, she would have bought more beautiful clothes before the end of the world and stored them in her interspace.
Looking at Du Yue’s usual indifference, Ah Ping knew in her heart that Du Yue was not lying. She was really not interested in that position, but it was precisely because she knew that Du Yue was telling the truth that Ah Ping felt even more uncomfortable. Du Yue could have easily gotten that position, but she still did not care. However, no matter how hard she tried, she could not get what she wanted. Was this the difference between people? However, they were both humans, so why was there such a huge difference?
Just because Du Yue had a pretty face? Was it because Du Yue’s family background was better than hers that she could casually give her chocolate as a reward? At the thought of this, a trace of jealousy and hatred flashed in Ah Ping’s eyes that she did not even notice. Ah Ping lowered her head to hide the emotions in her eyes. She smiled and said, “I came to see you today because I have something to tell you.”
“What is it? Go on.”

Du Yue looked down at the chocolate that the other party handed over. She did not say anything and took it. Seeing that Du Yue did not refuse, Ah Ping finally felt a lot more relaxed. She had returned the things that Du Yue had given her. From now on, they no longer owed each other anything and were equals.
Ah Ping straightened her back and turned to leave, but she stopped the moment she turned around. “Sister, let me give you a piece of advice. Don’t stay in the base any longer. The celestial lord is going to take us away. If you have the conditions, you can also buy a place with supplies and come with us.”
Du Yue could sense Ah Ping’s complicated emotions, but she did not really care. It was only when she heard Ah Ping’s words that Du Yue’s interest was piqued. No wonder. She had been wondering why the celestial lord had suddenly stopped trying to win people’s hearts. It turned out that he was leaving the base with the people around him.
The base was near the sea, so no one knew if tsunamis would come often. It was indeed the best idea to leave this place and build a new base. However, it seemed that he only intended to take the women around him and those with power and influence. He would give up on those who were not capable.
Du Yue’s eyes flickered, and she asked Ah Ping, “How many people is the celestial lord planning to take with him?”
Hearing Du Yue call out the celestial lord’s name like that, Ah Ping subconsciously frowned, but she still gave an answer. “About 5,000 people.”
“That many people?”
It seemed that although the tsunami had caused a big blow to everyone’s hearts, not many people had died because they had retreated relatively quickly.
Just as she was thinking about it, Du Yue heard Ah Ping say again, “You must not be short of food, right? Buy a spot as soon as possible and leave this place.”
Du Yue shook her head. I’m not planning to leave.
“Why? We don’t know when the tsunami will come back again, and we might not be so lucky next time. Why do you want to take the risk and stay?”

“Leave with those poor people? And then wait to starve to death?”
When Ah Ping said this, she obviously did not think it through and blurted it out subconsciously. Du Yue sensed that something was wrong and looked at Ah Ping with a frown. “What do you mean? Why would I starve to death if I follow the main group?”
“Nothing much… I’m just talking nonsense… I still have something to do…” Ah Ping was about to turn and leave, but she walked very slowly in her heavy dress. Du Yue stopped her in a flash.
“Ah Ping, if you don’t tell me the truth today, I won’t let you go.”
Ah Ping’s brows furrowed. She was obviously in a very difficult position. She looked around and saw that there was no one else around, so she whispered, “I heard it from others. When the celestial lord leaves, he’ll take all the food in the base with him. If you don’t come with us, you won’t get any food. Are you going to starve to death?”
Upon hearing this, Du Yue’s face darkened completely. “Ah Ping, he’ll be punished by the heavens for what he’s doing. Are you going to follow him?”
