He Sheng was bumped on the forehead by this sudden pull, and fell into Li Yanting’s arms with a small cry of pain.
Lando outside the car was dragged into the back seat by Da Kun, and the noise did not enter He Sheng’s ears at all, because Li Yanting’s hot temperature was already burning her face red.
Although they were engaged, they had never been so close. Except for the last time Li Yanting wanted to see the mark, they had never hugged each other like this.
The car started, and He Sheng was bumped into Li Yanting’s chest by inertia. Listening to his steady and powerful heartbeat, He Sheng felt an unprecedented sense of peace.
Lando made a fuss for a long time, but no one paid attention to her. In the end, she angrily found a blanket to cover herself and went to sleep.
The car drove out of the warehouse wall, and at a glance, there were only a dozen or so scattered zombies on the street, moving slowly, and the degree of rot was relatively heavy. They should be ordinary zombies that fell behind in the last zombie tide.
Such zombies posed no threat to ability users. The two cars drove along the road, directly killing them within the range of their abilities, and ignoring those that were farther away.
Some survivors on the side of the road were taking advantage of the gap to sweep the shops in the town in search of food. The sound of smashing had long become a common noise in the apocalypse, and no one cared.
The people guarding outside all cleaned up the wandering zombies. Hearing the sound of the vehicles passing by, they all gathered on both sides of the road.
Da Kun and Li Yanting were immediately on guard. The two sides did not communicate, but they were both assessing each other’s strength.
The two cars passed by, and the other party did not do anything. Da Kun breathed a sigh of relief, stepped on the gas pedal and drove off the asphalt road, taking a shortcut all the way to the wilderness, getting rid of the uncomfortable coveting behind him.
He Sheng leaned against Li Yanting’s chest, listening to them chatting about the situation, while thinking about how to get the supplies left by her father when she arrived in the town.
Just as she was getting some clues, He Sheng suddenly heard a “gurgling” sound. The noise of the off-road vehicle was loud, and no one heard the sound except her, who was nestled in Li Yanting’s arms.
He Sheng was stunned for a moment, raised her head and looked at the man’s stubbled chin, blinked her eyes, and took out a sweet potato from her inner pocket.
This sweet potato was what she had saved in the morning.
She would save some from each meal, and then mix it with what she had saved from the previous meal to ensure that her stored food was fresh enough and would not spoil.
He Sheng pulled Li Yanting’s hand and stuffed her stored food into his palm.
The apocalypse was not easy, and someone as tall and strong as him could not eat enough with only one sweet potato or potato per meal.
Li Yanting looked at the person in his arms in surprise, met her expectant and flattering eyes, and an unknown thing moved in his heart.
He couldn’t describe the feeling, as if something that had been tightly closed by him had been carefully poked in the dead silence.
There is no trick, don’t waste it.
Seeing that he didn’t move for a long time, He Sheng thought he was wary of her, so she held Li Yanting’s hand and took a bite of the sweet potato, proving to him that she had not poisoned it.
Li Yanting lowered his head, his chin rubbed against the furry top of the head of the person in his arms, and a clear and fragrant aroma lingered in his nose, warm and comfortable.
It’s strange to say that in this apocalypse, most of the survivors are covered in blood and rotten flesh, and the stench is normal, how can there be someone like her who is fragrant and soft.
Li Yanting hesitated for a while, broke off half of the sweet potato, and stuffed it into his mouth to eat.
Da Kun in the driver’s seat looked back in surprise, and was glared back by Li Yanting and stopped talking.
The team’s supplies were scarce, and the food distributed to them was already pitifully small. If Lando, who was sleeping in the back seat, found out that she had taken out a sweet potato for nothing, it would definitely cause a commotion again.
He Sheng nestled in Li Yanting’s arms, feeling drowsy. She had been tense these past two days and was really tired. Now leaning in Li Yanting’s arms, she felt a full sense of security, and fell asleep in a short while.
Li Yanting’s body was a little stiff, but the person in his arms was well-behaved and soft, hugging him without any defense, burying her face in his neck, and the long breathing was hot, and the non-noisy snoring fell on his ears, each one against his heart.
Li Yanting lowered his head and looked at the person in his arms, her eyes were tightly closed, her small face was flushed with sleep, and this well-behaved and defenseless side had never appeared in front of him.
It had only been less than a month since he left the shelter city, how could she have become so different.
Li Yanting’s hard heart seemed to be unable to harden anymore. If she could always rely on and trust him like she does now, then…
Brother, you wouldn’t be soft-hearted towards this woman, would you.
Da Kun glanced at the passenger seat from the rearview mirror, and saw that Li Yanting’s rough and scarred chin had fallen on He Sheng’s sleeping red face. The hands that were still restrained and distant at the beginning were no longer gentlemen, but hugged the person completely in his arms.
She is lying to you, she can’t survive without lying to you in this situation, don’t get caught up in it again.
Da Kun couldn’t help but want to rush over and separate the two of them when he thought of the stupid things Li Yanting had done for this woman before. Put her down quickly when you get to a place with people, and let her get out.
Li Yanting didn’t listen to a word of Da Kun’s indignant remarks. He took off his coat, spread it out and covered the person in his arms, so that she could sleep warmer and more comfortably.
Brother! Are you listening to me! Da Kun gritted his teeth as if he couldn’t make steel, and when he saw Li Yanting’s careful movements towards the woman, he was so angry that he almost didn’t fly the car.
Don’t talk. Li Yanting patted the restless person in his arms, waited for her to drill her body a little more into his arms, calmed down and continued to sleep, then looked at Da Kun, and lowered his voice and said, I have a sense of propriety.
You… you have a sense of propriety!
Da Kun bit his tongue and didn’t dare to say the second half of the sentence.
He Sheng didn’t sleep soundly, even though she was wrapped in a warm embrace, she always felt uneasy.
So she kept stuffing herself deeper, constantly making herself stick closer to this embrace, as if only in this way could she grab the person in front of her, not let him fall again, and then leave forever.
Li Yanting…
He Sheng murmured softly, the choked voice with hot tears, desperately and helplessly smashed into someone’s heart.
Li Yanting froze, only he could hear the kitten-like voice, and the feeling of suffocation wrapped him tightly, as if only one place was still beating all over his body.
She was calling him, she was chanting his name in her dream, but she was crying, why was she crying, was she trying to escape from him even in her dream?
Don’t die, please don’t die…
He Sheng trembled in Li Yanting’s arms, holding his hand tighter, as if to completely embed herself in Li Yanting’s arms, so that she could find a little pitiful sense of security.
He Sheng cried and sobbed, almost unable to breathe. Li Yanting knew that he should wake her up and let her escape the nightmare, but He Sheng’s unconscious dream talk was like a heavy hammer, hitting his chest, making him unable to move for a long time.
Li Yanting… I know I was wrong, don’t go…
He Sheng nestled in Li Yanting’s neck and cried so hard that she hiccuped, and didn’t wake up even when she cried the saddest.
Li Yanting finally couldn’t help it, wrapped his arms around He Sheng’s back and hugged her tighter, stroking the long hair on the back of her head, silently comforting her until he dispelled the nightmare for her.
