His voice was blocked, and Jiang Chen's eyes widened.
Her slightly shaky lips pressed against his.
After a long time, their lips parted.
Xia Shiyu also made up her mind. She gritted her teeth and whispered.
"No matter what you tell me, even if you are an alien, I … I will stand by your side."
Looking at Xia Shiyu's serious expression and feeling her warm breath close to him, Jiang Chen paused for a moment before he burst out laughing.
"What, what are you laughing at!"
Xia Shiyu's cheeks instantly turned red. She gritted her teeth, raised her hand, and punched Jiang Chen's chest twice, then pinched his waist. Of course, Jiang Chen wouldn't be hurt by this level of attack. He pretended that he couldn't take it anymore and collapsed on the sofa.
"No, nothing! Haha … okay, okay, I won't laugh. " Squeezing Xia Shiyu's fists, Jiang Chen, who was almost out of breath from laughing, took a while to stabilize his breathing. He looked at Xia Shiyu, who was riding on top of him, and said with a serious expression, "Don't worry, I'm definitely not an alien."
"Pfft —"
Looking at Jiang Chen pretending to be serious, this time it was Xia Shiyu who laughed out loud.
Jiang Chen looked up at Xia Shiyu's giggling face and also laughed. He let go of her hand and whispered.
"Wait for me to come back."
"Is it dangerous?"
"It's not very dangerous."
"Can I not go …"
Jiang Chen didn't speak. He just silently stared at the black eyes.
Xia Shiyu looked to the side with a blushing face. Her arms were crossed under her chest, and her index finger twirled around the hair on her temples. She was slightly embarrassed when she said.
"Then … when you're outside, remember to be safe — ah!"
Jiang Chen suddenly sat up, and Xia Shiyu, who was sitting on his lower abdomen, screamed and fell back on the other side of the sofa. The positions of the two instantly changed. Looking at the face in front of her, Xia Shiyu panicked and wanted to dodge, but she was restricted by his strong arms.
With a smirk, Jiang Chen leaned close to her ear and gently blew into it.
"You've been riding me for so long, it's time for me to stay on top for a while."
Looking at that panicked face and recalling her usual dignified and meticulous appearance, this kind of contrast was simply irresistible.
"Wait, wait, what are you doing?! No, you can't, this is a place to eat … Sha Sha is still in the kitchen … boohoo –! Hmm … hmm … "
…
The apocalypse, Hanzhong.
The wind was like a saw, and the snow was like a blade. The white torrent poured down from the sky, tearing apart every inch of life that was exposed on the surface. The survivors set up sturdy thermal tents by the Han River and curled up in their blankets. The patrol team drove the snow shoveling vehicles out of the camp. They carried their rifles and checked every corner where mutants could be hiding.
The Han River was right next to it, and the surface of the river was completely frozen.
In order to get water from the Han River, the survivors had no choice but to use a drill to drill a one-meter thick hole in the ice.
The living conditions in the northwest were terrible, and the resources were scarce to an unimaginable degree. Even if the Northern Alliance Area prepared a considerable amount of supplies for the migration, this migration looked like a death march. Every day, people froze to death, were bitten to death by mutants, and died of illness because of the lack of medicine …
Everything was because of the radiation dust that could not dissipate.
At this moment, in the barracks belonging to the commander-in-chief of the Northern Alliance Area, located in the center of the survivor settlement, the electric heater exuded fascinating heat. The power supply in the settlement was limited, but this was only for ordinary survivors.
Commander Wei Bian sat in front of the holographic map and used a marker to write and draw on the crumpled paper map. Deputy Commander Luo Xugang sat across from him and occasionally glanced at his paper map, but most of the time, he was napping.
Wei Bian stopped the pen in his hand, frowned slightly, and abruptly broke the silence in the command room.
"Time is running out."
Luo Xugang leaned back in the chair, opened his half-closed eyes, and yawned.
"You have repeated this sentence many times."
Before he finished speaking, a gust of cold wind wrapped in snowflakes blew in, and suddenly, like a basin of cold water poured from head to toe on the drowsy Luo Xugang. After shivering several times in a row, Old Luo suddenly lost his sleepiness and glared at the door angrily. The sergeant covered in snow was so frightened that he began to tremble.
Although his movements were fast enough, the snow still blew into the command post.
Wei Bian was still expressionless as he looked at the officer and said.
"What's the matter?"
The non-commissioned officer reported quickly.
"NAC is deploying a line of defense in the Wu City area. They deployed Type-50 electromagnetic pulse cannons and laser array defense systems along the Yangtze River, and the stationed force is between 2,000 and 5,000. The outpost we established in Wu City has been uprooted by them … "
After listening to the sergeant's report, Wei Bian fell into deep thought. The deputy commander sitting next to him also frowned, stared at the map on the holographic command table, and silently thought about countermeasures.
"You can go now." As if he had made some kind of decision, Wei Bian suddenly said, "Hold a combat meeting here in an hour and gather the officers above the battalion level for me."
"Yes, sir!" The officer saluted and quickly left the command room.
Snowflakes once again covered the command post, but this time Luo Xugang did not care about the irritating ice shards, but looked at the commander of the Northern Alliance Area.
"Combat meeting?"
Wei Bian nodded, and his finger tapped on the holographic screen.
"We must take Wu City before the end of winter."
"But the snow is so heavy, how do we get there?" Luo Xugang frowned.
Wei Bian's laser pen pointed at the location of the Han River on the map.
"We'll go from the ice."
…
When he opened his eyes, the bright colors faded from his field of vision. The yellow and gray tone was the color that belonged to the wasteland. However, this color was limited to the inside of the mansion. Outside the window, it was white. This year's winter came much earlier than in previous years, and it was much colder.
As soon as he pushed open the wooden door of the bedroom, a beautiful figure jumped into his arms.
"Dead man, you're finally back." Sun Jiao bit Jiang Chen's earlobe in revenge and said bitterly, "Do you know how much I missed you?"
He looked at the beauty in his arms apologetically. He was about to say something, but she raised her index finger and gently placed it between his lips.
"I know what you want to say, but I don't want to hear you say sorry."
Facing the sly Sun Jiao, Jiang Chen, who was seen through, smiled embarrassedly and met her loving gaze.
"… When Lin Lin's research is successful, are you willing to accompany me to live there?"
"Didn't we already make an appointment?" Sun Jiao whispered softly.
"That's true." Feeling the warmth in his arms, Jiang Chen stroked Sun Jiao's hair.
After cuddling with Sun Jiao for a while, the "satiated" kitten finally let go of Jiang Chen and held his hand as they walked downstairs. When the two came to the living room, they happened to meet Lin Lin, who just came out of the lab.
Lin Lin's eyes lit up when she saw Jiang Chen. She immediately stepped forward and grabbed his empty hand.
"I was going to look for you. Come with me."
After that, without giving Jiang Chen a chance to react, Lin Lin took him to the lab.
