Apocalyptic Reincarnation: Start with a 30-million Bonus

Third Outer City.

Construction site.

Zhong Chuchu squatted to tie the rebar, looking at the nearly completed wall, and said to Shen Xiaoxiao beside her, ”Once we finish the work on this wall, we’ll be building a residential building next. We can keep working here for a while.”

Shen Xiaoxiao nodded and said, ”Sister Chuchu, after this is built, we need to take on another task, right?”

Zhong Chuchu pointed at the rebar Shen Xiaoxiao had tied and said, ”You didn’t tie this firmly enough, do it again.”

Shen Xiaoxiao said helplessly, ”Sister Chuchu, I don’t want to tie rebar anymore. I have to squat, and once I squat, I’m there for most of the day. I prefer carrying cement; it’s a bit easier.”

Zhong Chuchu paused, looking at Shen Xiaoxiao’s sturdy physique, suddenly realizing it was indeed a bit of a waste to have Shen Xiaoxiao tying rebar here instead of carrying cement.

Thinking of each package weighing 50 pounds, Zhong Chuchu felt a chill down her spine; it was, indeed, a back-breaking task.

Zhong Chuchu stood up, stretched, and said to Shen Xiaoxiao, ”We just arrived here, let’s focus on stability first. Didn’t another team from the north arrive the day before yesterday? I’ve heard they too were driven away by the Motorcycle Gang.

Recently, I’ve been observing the Big Camphor Tree Base, and they’re very powerful!

We’d better not wander around; staying here is the safest option.”

Zhong Chuchu covered her eyes from the sun, eyes thoughtful, and said softly, ”I always felt that escaping south was just the beginning; more people are bound to come later.

Moreover, with the Motorcycle Gang being so ambitious, we might run into them during assignments. So, it’s not too safe outside now; let’s stay stable for the time being.”

These thoughts were carefully considered by Zhong Chuchu, and in her view, having food to eat and being safe was enough for now.

This was the first time she shared these thoughts with someone else.

For a long time, she hadn’t heard any response from Shen Xiaoxiao.

Turning her head, Shen Xiaoxiao was nowhere to be seen.

”........”

Had she just been talking to the air?

Even someone with her good temper felt like cursing at this moment.

Where did she run off to?

Zhong Chuchu wore a displeased expression; she couldn’t see her in the rebar area anywhere.

Suddenly, she recalled their conversation earlier.

Carrying cement?

This sturdy girl couldn’t have really gone to carry cement, could she!?

She walked a few steps forward, looking toward the mixer station.

Sure enough, she saw a sturdy woman in a black tank top, carrying six bags of cement toward the mixer station.

It was Xiaoxiao.

As she got closer, she could hear the other men talking.

”Wow, that’s strong! We can only carry two bags at a time, and she’s doing six! Incredible!”

”That physique wasn’t built for nothing, she’s fierce as hell!”

”She might manage a couple of times, but we’re in for long-term carrying, it’s about endurance. Just watch, she won’t manage many trips.”

......

Two people even went up to warn her.

”Young lady, you’re carrying too much. Take fewer at one time, or you’ll hurt your back.”

”Yeah, three hundred pounds is too much over time; it’s easy to injure your lower back muscles. If you throw out your back, it’ll be trouble.”

Thud!

Shen Xiaoxiao put the cement bags down, smiling like the sun, with a sunflower-like grin.

”It’s fine, I can handle it, this weight feels pretty light to me.”

A sweet, soft voice, everyone was stunned upon hearing it.

White Wenyang, who had been advising her, even spat out a mouthful of water.

Those massive fists, those big arm muscles, the bulging veins glistening with a layer of sweat, looking tremendously intimidating.

But what on earth was up with that sweet voice?

The contrast, the contrast was just too much.

Seeing the men’s jaws drop, Shen Xiaoxiao thought they were concerned about her. She confidently walked up to the cement truck, and lifted a whole ten bags of cement from below.

This was lifting, not just carrying.

After lifting ten bags of cement, she said to them, ”See, six bags of cement isn’t heavy.”

Her clear and gentle voice evoked a strong sense of protectiveness among the sweat-drenched men.

But upon seeing the owner of that voice with such a physique, they gave up the idea.

With that physique and strength,

a single punch could likely knock someone out.

The crowd awkwardly stayed silent.

They looked at Shen Xiaoxiao with admiration.

Here, it’s like this: if you have the ability, I respect you as a guy....

Uh, lady!

Zhong Chuchu, usually composed and calm, couldn’t help but twitch a bit at this scene.

But seeing how Shen Xiaoxiao really preferred carrying cement, she decided not to stop her and turned to leave.

Just at that moment, Li Yu, near the Third Outer City wall, happened to see Shen Xiaoxiao lifting 500 pounds of cement and was a bit surprised.

He asked Second Uncle beside him, ”I thought Zhu Xiao was already impressive, but there’s someone even stronger; whose team member is this?”

Second Uncle coughed a couple of times and said, ”She fled from the north recently, a member from Zhong Chuchu’s team at the Stone Oil Camp, Shen Xiaoxiao. Xiao Yu, haven’t you met her before?”

”So that’s her! Wearing a black tank top, I almost didn’t recognize her. Speaking of which, Zhou Weiguo had a feeling at first sight, wonder how He Chao’s handling it over there.”
