In her previous life, she was a full-time wife to a CEO, but was tragically robbed of his love by an internet influencer. After the apocalypse descended, she was left to wander the streets.
F...
At 3 p.m., Ye Ning and Xiao Jingchen finally arrived at their destination.
Near Red Hill Park, close to the coast.
Compared to the towering buildings in the city center.
This is truly magnificent, a vast expanse of white snow, utterly deserted.
Next, they will set off from here, cross the coastline, and reach the vicinity of the warehouse in the west of the city.
After a short rest in the park's duty room, it finally got dark.
Xiao Jingchen carefully wrapped Ye Ning in a blanket for warmth. "Ye Ning, it's very cold at the beach. If you can't stand it, you must tell me."
Ye Ning nodded obediently. "Jing Chen, don't worry, I'm fine!"
Ye Ning clung tightly to Xiao Jingchen's back as the snowmobile sped along amidst the roar of the engine.
Under the moonlight, Baise stretches for thousands of miles, like an ocean of ice and snow, with two snowmobiles riding the waves one after the other.
The wind howled incessantly in my ears, and the cold in the air seemed to freeze my very soul.
After a long two-hour journey, Xiao Jingchen and his group finally approached their destination.
"Ye Ning, are you cold!" Xiao Jingchen shook off the snowflakes on his body and picked up Ye Ning, who was sitting behind him, and carried her out of the car.
Ye Ning still hasn't recovered from the raging, violent cold wind; she feels like her soul is about to freeze.
But she didn't show it at all. She calmly shook her head and said, "Jingchen, I'm fine!"
She pretended to be strong and pushed away Xiao Jingchen's hand that was helping her up, "Jingchen, I can walk by myself."
But as soon as she took a step forward, her legs buckled and she almost fell to the ground.
"Jingchen, I'm fine!" Ye Ning said quickly.
"You still say you're fine!" Xiao Jingchen said firmly, picking Ye Ning up in his arms. "Don't move, be good! Hold onto my neck!"
"Ye Ning, I don't need you to pretend to be strong! You can be weak in front of me, you can be imperfect, this is the real you."
Ye Ning obediently wrapped her arms around his neck. Xiao Jingchen used his hand to pull Ye Ning up a little to make her more comfortable, and then strode forward.
"There's a convention center up ahead. Let's stay here tonight!" Long Fei, who was walking ahead, said.
"Okay!" Xiao Jingchen nodded.
Long Fei walked in front, while Xiao Jingchen carried Ye Ning behind him.
After smashing the thinner sections of glass with shovels, Xiao Jingchen and Ye Ning were the first to crawl inside, followed by Da Huang, while Brother Long Fei went back alone and drove over on his snowmobile.
This place is quite remote, so it's actually quite clean inside.
Because this place is close to the sea, the temperature is almost 5 to 10 degrees lower than inland.
The group found a sheltered spot from the wind and snow, then used shelves to create a temporary shelter.
The fire was quickly lit.
Sitting beside the burning fire, Ye Ning finally recovered.
Her face was red from the cold, and her hands were blue from the cold. Now, when she warmed them by the fire, her hands and face felt itchy and tingly.
Xiao Jingchen tenderly stroked Ye Ning's hair, which was covered in snow.
"Ye Ning, if something like this happens again, let a few of us come over!" He really didn't want Ye Ning to suffer such injustice.
"I'm fine, Jingchen. I just want to stay by your side!" In the firelight, Ye Ning's eyes seemed to be burning with small flames as well.
"I know, but I don't want you to suffer!" Xiao Jingchen lowered his head and poked at the fire in front of him.
In the firelight, the two leaned against each other quietly, just like in the many dark nights of their past lives, every moment was forever.
After finishing his dinner around the fire, the man boiled water, washed his hands and face with it, and then applied anti-chapped ointment.
After changing into dry clothes, I finally lay down in my sleeping bag and went to sleep.
In the middle of the night, Ye Ning, who was half asleep, seemed to hear a noise. She opened her eyes and saw that it was Brother Long Fei adding firewood.
No wonder Brother Longfei's eyes were red last time I saw him; it turns out he'd been secretly keeping watch all night and hadn't slept well at all.
"Brother Longfei, you should go and rest! I'll stay and watch for a while!" Ye Ning said, sitting up.
Brother Longfei silently shook his head, "You're too young for this kind of thing! Let me do it!"
“Brother Longfei, but you won’t be able to endure this.”
"It's okay, I'm used to it."
With Brother Longfei's insistence, Ye Ning quickly fell asleep again.
The next day, Ye Ning woke up almost before sunrise. The three of them were exhausted after a day and two nights of trekking.
Long Fei, who had been keeping watch for most of the night, also fell asleep wrapped in a sleeping bag against the wall.
After the three of them finished a simple breakfast, Xiao Jingchen began to tell the other two about their next plan.
They are currently located about one kilometer away from the warehouse at their destination.
The area near the warehouse was relatively open and lacked any cover, making it easy for people outside the warehouse to spot.
So after discussing it, the three of them decided that Ye Ning and Long Fei would stay here for the time being.
Tonight, Uncle Yun and the others will come over to meet up with Xiao Jingchen and the others.
Then they found a way to lie in wait near the warehouse, and at three o'clock in the morning, the operation officially began.
Long Fei's main task is to protect Ye Ning.
After Xiao Jingchen and his team took over the warehouse as planned, Long Fei drove the snowmobile to take Ye Ning there.
As Ye Ning listened to their plan, she felt her heart pounding with fear.
The thought of Jing Chen operating under the watchful eyes of heavily armed guards made her feel uneasy.
"Jingchen, I'm scared, I'm afraid you'll be in danger!" Ye Ning said worriedly, her eyes reddening.
"It's alright, Ye Ning! Don't worry!" Xiao Jingchen put his arm around her shoulders to comfort her.
Ye Ning knew that Xiao Jingchen possessed an absolute domain, but the absolute domain could only be used for ten minutes. What if… she dared not think any further.
"Ye Ning, do you believe me?" Xiao Jingchen looked firmly into Ye Ning's eyes, his gaze as deep as the stars.
"I believe it!" Ye Ning murmured.
"Since you trust me, then don't be afraid!" Xiao Jingchen lifted Ye Ning's chin and then kissed her deeply.
After a while, Ye Ning and Xiao Jingchen separated, their faces flushed.
"Don't worry! I'll be fine. We went through so much in our past lives, didn't we get through it all?" Xiao Jingchen affectionately put his arm around Ye Ning's waist.
"Besides, I now have the Absolute Domain, and with Uncle Yun and the other two helping me, a mere twenty-odd people shouldn't be able to do anything to us. Even if the operation doesn't go smoothly, we can still escape unscathed! You just need to wait here obediently for me!"
"Okay! I'll wait for you here obediently!" Ye Ning tiptoed and gently kissed his forehead.
