"When I come back this time, I will tell you everything—"
The sound was blocked, and Jiang Chen opened his eyes slightly.
Slightly raw lips touched his lips.
After a long time, the lips parted.
Xia Shiyu also made up her mind, biting her teeth and murmured softly.
"No matter what you tell me, even if you are an alien, I... I will stand by you."
Seeing Xia Shiyu's serious look and feeling the warm breath so close at hand, Jiang Chen was stunned and suddenly burst into laughter.
"You, what are you laughing at!"
Her cheeks instantly turned red. Xia Shiyu gritted her teeth and raised her hand, punched Jiang Chen hard twice on the chest, and then stretched out her hand to pinch his waist. Of course, Jiang Chen would not be hurt by such an attack. He smiled as if he couldn't resist and fell on the sofa.
"No, it's nothing! Haha... Okay, okay, I won't laugh." Jiang Chen, who pinched Xia Shiyu's pink fists and was about to burst out laughing, took a long time to calm down his breathing and looked at the person riding on him. Xia Shiyu, who was full of shame and anger, said with a serious face, "Don't worry, I'm definitely not an alien."
"Pfft—"
Seeing Jiang Chen's pretending to be serious, Xia Shiyu laughed out loud this time.
Looking up at Xia Shiyu's smiling flower branches trembling, Jiang Chen also smiled, loosened his hold on her hand, and said softly.
"wait me back."
"Is it dangerous?"
"Not very dangerous."
"Can you not go..."
Jiang Chen didn't speak, just stared into those black eyes silently.
Xia Shiyu blushed and looked away, folded her arms under her chest, wrapped her index finger around the hair on her temples, and spoke a little embarrassedly.
"Then... outside, remember to pay attention to An-ah!"
Jiang Chen suddenly sat up. Xia Shiyu, who was sitting on his lower abdomen, exclaimed and fell backward on the other end of the sofa. Their positions changed instantly. Looking at the face so close, Xia Shiyu tried to hide away in a panic, but was restricted by the strong arms and had nowhere to hide.
With a wicked smile on his lips, Jiang Chen came close to her ear and blew lightly.
"You've been riding on me for so long, it's time for me to stay on top for a while."
Looking at that panicked face and recalling his usual dignified and meticulous appearance, this contrast is simply irresistible.
"Wait, wait a minute, you, what are you going to do?! No, you can't, this is a place to eat... Shasha is still in the kitchen... Wuwu! Uh... um... "
…
The end of the world, Hanzhong.
The wind is like an ax and saw, the snow is like a knife blade, and the white torrent pours down from the sky, tearing apart every inch of bare life on the surface. The survivors set up sturdy warm tents on the bank of the Han River and huddled in their quilts. The patrol drove the snowplow truck to shovel the snow out of the camp. With rifles in hand, they inspected every corner where alien species might be lurking.
Next to it is the Han River, whose surface has been completely frozen.
In order to get water from the Han River, the survivors had to use drills to drill holes nearly one meter thick in the ice.
The living conditions in the northwest are so harsh and the lack of supplies has reached an unimaginable level. Even though the joint district had prepared considerable supplies for the migration, the migration looked like a death march. Every day, people freeze to death, are bitten to death by alien species, and die of illness due to lack of medicine...
All because of the radioactive fallout that cannot be dispersed.
At this moment, in the barracks belonging to the commander-in-chief of the joint command area, located in the center of the survivor colony, the electric heater exuded mesmerizing heat. The power supply in the settlement is limited, but this is only for ordinary survivors.
Commander Wei Bian sat in front of the holographic map, writing and drawing on the crumpled paper map with a marker. Deputy Commander Luo Xugang sat opposite him, occasionally glancing at his paper map, but mostly dozing.
Stopping the pen in his hand, Wei Bian frowned slightly, breaking the silence in the command room abruptly.
"time is limited."
Leaning on the chair, Luo Xugang opened his half-lidded eyes, hit him and said.
"You have repeated this sentence many times."
Before he finished speaking, a gust of cold wind blew in with snowflakes, and it was like a basin of cold water poured on the sleepy Luo Xugang's body from head to toe. After shivering several times in a row, Lao Luo suddenly lost all sleep and glared at the door angrily, making the sergeant covered in snow tremble in fear.
Although he moved quickly enough, the snow still blew all over the command post.
Wei Bian still looked expressionless and looked at the sergeant and said.
"What's up?"
The noncommissioned officer spoke quickly and reported the report.
"NAC is deploying a defense line around Wu City. They have deployed Type 50 electromagnetic guns and laser array defense systems along the Yangtze River. The number of troops stationed 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, staring at the map on the holographic command table, silently thinking about countermeasures.
"You go down first." As if some kind of decision had been made, Wei Bian suddenly said, "A combat meeting will be held here in an hour to summon cadres above the battalion level for me."
"Yes!" The noncommissioned officer gave a military salute and hurriedly left the command room.
Snowflakes once again covered the command post, but this time Luo Xugang ignored the irritating ice shards and looked at the commander of the joint command area.
"Combat meeting?"
Wei Bian nodded and pointed his finger on the holographic screen.
"We must take Wu City before the end of winter."
"But the snow is so heavy, how can we get there?" Luo Xugang frowned.
Wei Bian's laser pointer pointed at the location of the Han River on the map.
"Let's get up on the ice."
…
Opening his eyes, the bright colors faded from his sight. The yellow and gray tones were the colors of the wasteland. However, this color is only limited to the villa, and outside the window is a white mist. This year's winter was much earlier and colder than in previous years.
As soon as he opened the wooden door of the bedroom, a beautiful figure jumped into his arms.
"Dead man, you are finally back." Sun Jiao bit Jiang Chen's earlobe as if to retaliate, and said resentfully, "Do you know how much I miss you?"
Looking at the beauty in his arms apologetically, Jiang Chen was about to say something, but her raised index finger tapped her lips gently.
"I know what you're going to say, but I don't want to hear you say you're sorry."
Facing Sun Jiao with a cunning look on her face, Jiang Chen smiled sheepishly and met her loving gaze.
"...When Lin Ling's research is successful, will you be willing to accompany me to live there?"
"Didn't we make an appointment a long time ago?" Sun Jiao murmured softly.
"That's right." Feeling the warmth in his arms, Jiang Chen gently stroked Sun Jiao's hair and said.
After being affectionate with Sun Jiao for a while, the "fed and drunk" kitten finally let Jiang Chen go with satisfaction and held his hand and walked downstairs. After the two came to the living room, they happened to bump into Lin Ling who had just walked out of the laboratory.
Lin Ling's eyes lit up when she saw Jiang Chen, and she immediately walked forward quickly and grabbed his free hand.
"I was planning to find you. Come with me."
After saying that, without giving Jiang Chen a chance to react, Lin Ling pulled him towards the direction of the laboratory. (.)
