"We're here. This is mine and Sally's home," David pointed to the two doors in the hallway and said to everyone. The building they lived in had four units, with Sally and David's house being opposite to each other, while the other two households were at the other end of the corridor.

David walked up to his own door, took out the key, and opened it. In an instant as he opened the door, he swiftly retrieved a large amount of supplies from the storage space and piled them up in the room. All of this was done silently, without anyone noticing.

David didn't want to reveal his abilities in front of Angus for the time being, so he summoned the supplies beforehand, avoiding the need to explain their source later. Moreover, David had other intentions for summoning these supplies.

After opening the door, David said to Arnold and the others, "This is my home. You four can stay here temporarily, and I'll stay at Sally's place." Arnold and Sophie quickly expressed their gratitude, but Angus furrowed his brow. He said to David, "There are two sets of rooms for the six of us, and you two are occupying one set while the four of us are squeezed into the other. That doesn't seem quite fair."

David's expression turned slightly cold. He knew that Angus was deliberately causing trouble. Angus probably thought that David was inferior to him and was starting to push his boundaries. He just didn't expect Angus to lose his patience so quickly.

David took two steps forward, coldly staring at Angus with a calm tone that carried a hint of chill. "There's nothing inappropriate about it. This is mine and Sally's house, and I'll live however I want. If you don't like it, you can find your own place."

Somehow, Angus found himself hesitating to meet David's gaze directly. He couldn't quite explain why, but David's eyes were not the fierce and menacing type. His gaze was calm like water, yet it gave off an intimidating sense of danger, sending shivers down one's spine.

For a moment, Angus doubted if he had misjudged David. David's tall and slender figure didn't resemble someone strong and formidable. When Angus first saw David, he was confident that he could take on three Davids single-handedly. But at this moment, for some reason, he was reluctant to meet David's eyes directly.

Seeing the tension between the two, Arnold quickly intervened to defuse the situation. "Angus, you're in the wrong here. This is David's house, and he's letting us stay. We should be grateful."

Arnold apologized to David with a smile. "David, sorry about Angus. He didn't mean it that way. He's just a hotheaded young guy. Don't take it to heart."

Arnold turned to Angus and said, "How about this, Angus? Sophie and I will take the secondary bedroom, and you can share the master bedroom with Zoe. How does that sound?"

Angus snorted coldly. "It's just a run-down house. What's so special about it?" Angus lifted a hammer and walked to the other end of the corridor, knocking on a door. "Hey! Is anyone there? Speak up! I'm coming in." After waiting a few seconds with no response, Angus directly swung the hammer at the door lock.

Angus continued hammering on the door, eventually breaking it open. Arnold and the others exchanged glances. Angus walked in casually, and after about ten seconds, he stood at the door and shouted to Zoe, "Zoe, come over here. There's no one inside, so we'll stay here." Then, Angus showed a disdainful expression towards David. "See that? It's not difficult to find a place to live in this building. You can keep your own house."

Zoe made an apologetic expression towards Arnold and Sophie, then she hurriedly went over to Angus. Angus pulled Zoe over and slammed the door shut.

Arnold awkwardly smiled at David and said, "That's just how he is. He's a bit hot-tempered, but he's not a bad person. Don't mind him, David. I'll talk to him later."

David simply said, "It's fine." He didn't even consider Angus worth paying attention to. However, he felt a bit regretful. Originally, he summoned those supplies in the room to tempt Angus. He didn't expect Angus to be so impulsive and choose a room for himself, which went beyond David's plan.

Angus was just too eager. He wanted to become the most influential person in the team as soon as possible. That's why he felt dissatisfied when David suggested that the four of them stay together.

In David's mind, he made an assessment of Angus: Although Angus had some strength, his thinking was average, and he acted too impulsively. He couldn't hide his thoughts at all. Such a person could lead a small group, but wouldn't achieve much in the long run.

"You all can go inside and take a look. If you need anything, just call me," David removed a spare key from the one in his hand and handed it to Arnold.

Arnold gratefully took the key and said, "Thank you. We really appreciate it." After Arnold pulled Sophie into David's house, they were instantly stunned by what they saw. David's room was filled with various supplies, such as canned food, bottled water, instant noodles, and sausages.

The room was packed with all sorts of supplies, almost filling up the entire space. "Oh my god," Arnold and Sophie were amazed. They never expected David to stockpile such a huge amount of supplies in his home.

David explained, "I saw some doomsday rumors circulating online a while ago, so I casually stocked up on some things. I didn't expect it to come in handy."

Arnold chuckled and shook his head. Stocked up casually? He wished he could be as casual as David. "David, you really have foresight."

Both Arnold and Sophie felt secretly grateful. It was fortunate that they chose to follow David. With all these supplies, they wouldn't have to worry about food for a long time.

David said, "You must be hungry. Take whatever you want to eat. Sally and I will go back to our room for now."

Arnold hurriedly said, "Okay, you two rest. If you need any help, just let me know."

David closed the door and said to Sally in the hallway, "Let's go." Sally didn't dare to look directly at David, and her cheeks were slightly flushed. She didn't understand what it meant for David to stay in the same room as her. Could it be... the meaning she had in mind?

Sally took out her keys from her pocket, and perhaps due to nervousness, she failed to insert them into the keyhole several times. She sneakily turned her head to glance at David. David was still looking out into the distance through the window in the corridor, maintaining his expressionless demeanor

Sally took a few deep breaths to calm herself down. After opening the door, she secretly glanced at David again. "At least this guy is quite handsome. It's not like it's impossible to be with him for the first time..." Sally's mind was filled with various thoughts, and her heart was racing uncontrollably. Two blushes remained on her cheeks for a long time, unable to fade away.
