Bi Qiao'an lay weakly in the ice and snow, watching the heavy snow bury her alive. Thinking back to her three years of solitary survival in the apocalypse, her consciousness gradually blurred. ...
After hearing this, Bi Qiaoan cupped Shen Yanming's face in her hands. "I know, I won't stop you. I just hope that no matter what, you can take good care of yourself. Remember, the babies and I need you!"
Shen Yanming smiled and placed his rough, cold hands on her soft little hands. "I will, darling, thank you!"
It was dark inside the tent, and Bi Qiaoan couldn't see the tenderness in Shen Yanming's eyes, but she could hear gratitude in his voice. Her fingertips gently caressed his cheek, and then she noticed something unusual.
"Is this... an injury?" Bi Qiaoan panicked and bent down to get the flashlight.
Shen Yanming grabbed her wrist and said, "It's nothing. I just slipped and fell during the aftershock and got a cut from the rubble. It's alright, it'll be fine in a few days."
"I have to see how you handle things outside. What if you get disfigured?" Bi Qiaoan was a little anxious. She wasn't really worried about being disfigured, but she was afraid of getting an infection.
"It's really nothing. I secretly cleaned it with spiritual spring water. It's already scabbed over, and the scab might even fall off tomorrow." Shen Yanming chuckled.
"real?"
"Of course, how could I bear to lie to my wife!"
In reality, Shen Yanming simply wiped the wound with diluted spiritual spring water to ensure it wouldn't become inflamed or infected, but it wouldn't heal that quickly either.
He said this simply so that Qiao An wouldn't worry. He's been helping with the rescue efforts lately, leaving early and returning late every day, so he'll probably miss the times when Qiao An is awake. By the time the rescue is over, the scar will be almost healed.
"You said it's snowing outside, what's going on?" Only then did Bi Qiaoan remember why she had fallen asleep.
"Well, around 10 o'clock, it turned into sleet outside, and by the time I came back, it had turned into heavy snow. Who knows, when I wake up tomorrow, the outside will be completely white."
"It's almost the end of April, and it's still snowing?"
"It's not unusual for some places to still have snow at the end of May. But suddenly going from 'summer' to 'winter' might cause quite a few people to catch a cold or fever. Wear a down jacket when you go out tomorrow. Don't worry about what others think; your own comfort is the most important thing."
Bi Qiaoan nodded, then grabbed Shen Yanming's arm and said somewhat uneasily, "Honey, I think I did something wrong today."
"What's wrong?"
"I gave the restaurant the medicine kits you prepared."
"Isn't this good enough?"
"Isn't your packet only enough to make one bowl of medicine? If you're using a large pot, wouldn't the amount of medicine have to be doubled?"
Shen Yanming laughed heartily after hearing this, "It's my fault, it's my fault, I didn't explain it to you clearly. When the medicine packet was prepared, it was designed for boiling large batches of medicine. It's alright, you just stumbled upon the perfect solution."
"So that's how it is!" Bi Qiaoan breathed a huge sigh of relief. "As long as nothing bad happens, that's fine!"
Just then, Bi Qiaoan suddenly heard some strange noises, cooing, cooing~
"You haven't eaten?" Bi Qiaoan found it somewhat unbelievable.
"Well, it wasn't convenient for me to sneak a bite while I was out, and the restaurant was already closed when I came back."
"Since you're already in our own tent, why don't you take some food from your storage space?"
"I'm afraid that eating will wake you up," Shen Yanming said somewhat awkwardly.
"Are you stupid? Why don't you go into the space to fill your stomach before coming out?"
"I was just afraid of scaring you."
At this moment, Bi Qiaoan felt extremely heartbroken. Who else has such a golden touch that they would starve themselves to this extent? Only her husband would be so foolish as to endure hunger just because he was worried about her.
“I’m awake now. Why don’t you go in and take a hot bath, then have a proper meal? Or, why don’t you just sleep in there until you wake up?” Bi Qiaoan suggested.
Shen Yanming wanted to refuse, but considering the chill emanating from his body, he nodded and said, "I'll go in to eat and take a bath, but I'll still come out to sleep with my wife in my arms after a while, otherwise I won't be able to sleep peacefully."
"Oh, and let's bring the goose in too, otherwise the tent will be too crowded later."
Bi Qiaoan chuckled, "Okay!" Then she took Shen Yanming and the goose into the mobile villa.
It was at this moment that Bi Qiaoan finally saw the injury on Shen Yanming's face, and tears immediately streamed down her face.
However, knowing that her husband didn't want her to know, she wiped away her tears with her fingers, then lay down in bed, pretending she knew nothing.
Shen Yanming had forgotten about this. After entering the space, he first went to the bathroom and filled a tub with hot water to warm his chilly body. Then he changed into clean underwear, sat in the dining room, and took out a bowl of millet porridge and some meat buns from the storage area.
After the meal, I ate two pieces of fruit and then felt like I was alive again.
He hadn't eaten for seventeen or eighteen hours that day, and had felt extremely hungry at least three times. But he didn't feel sorry for himself, because there were many people like him who were still starving.
Every second counts; it's not just empty talk.
Where do you fight for every point, and where do you snatch every second? Isn't it all about the guards squeezing themselves out of their own bodies?
Shen Yanming was repeatedly shocked and moved, which is why he stayed on the front line and refused to return to rest until it snowed.
After cleaning up the dishes and brushing his teeth, Shen Yanming fed the goose some spiritual spring water, strawberries, and cherries before calling Bi Qiaoan to release it.
Then, he held his wife in his arms and fell into a deep sleep in the warm and comfortable quilt.
The couple, Shen Bi and his wife, fell asleep peacefully, but someone else had just woken up from a coma.
Li Sikai stared blankly at the dark expanse before him, still somewhat dazed. He tried to get up, but found that his limbs felt as if they had been run over by a car, causing him to gasp in pain.
It was only then that he remembered that he had experienced an aftershock and been buried.
He endured the pain and raised his right hand, trying to turn on the smart bracelet on his wrist, but found that his left wrist was stuck in a stone, and his fingers could not reach the switch at all.
Li Sikai couldn't help but feel a little desperate. Was this God's punishment for the dark thoughts in his heart?
He lay slumped on the ground, feeling the cold wind from all around and the rain dripping from the cracks in the bricks. His head was spinning, and he felt like he was about to faint again.
But he didn't know if he would have a chance to wake up again if he fainted again, so he held on, hoping that God would have mercy and that his brothers would find him soon.
Suddenly, Li Sikai remembered Yuan Ruoxi, and he called out weakly, "Yuan Ruoxi, are you still alive? If you are alive, say something!"
After a few seconds, there was no response.
