Chapter 198 Old couple.

When Li Yanli walked over from the end of the beach, Shu Maomao and Shu Lan turned around and looked up at him, calm and peaceful, as if they were seeing an old acquaintance they had known for many years.

While on the road, Li Yanli guessed when they first knew the truth.

When he delivered the headphones, Shu Maomao touched him for the first time. From that moment on, the mother and son knew who he was and started to act with him, but he still held on to the hope that his disguise was perfect.

The past is still vivid in my mind, like one step at a time, and those questionable details now have more reasonable explanations when I look back on them.

His first reaction to having his memory peeped into by someone using supernatural powers was not anger. It was more like he was dragging a heavy mountain alone and felt that he could hold on. But she came in with the second plunderer without saying anything and calmly said, "It's okay, we can carry it together. It's not that heavy."

Li Yanli stopped a meter in front of them, looking at them tenderly with a gentle gaze. She smiled and said, "You're amazing, two top actors. I'm just showing off my skills in front of an amateur."

Shu Lan raised her head and suddenly said, "So you're this tall."

After looking at Anselin for a long time, she always felt that Li Yanli was about 1.7 meters tall. Now he seemed to be raising his chin high?

Shu Maomao said, "I'm still growing, Mom."

Shu Lan nodded: "Yes, you will definitely be taller than him in the future."

Li Yanli was at a loss for words: "You waited for me for so long, and this is the first thing you said when you saw me?"

Shu Lan stood up, brushed the sand off her legs, and rolled her eyes at him. "What else? I'll hug you and cry: 'Wow, wow, wow, my poor baby's father, why did you die so young? You turned into a zombie, and how are we going to survive?! Is that what you wanted to hear? I'll satisfy you."

Li Yanli had a low sense of humor and was almost laughed to death by her.

When Shu Maomao was thirteen years old, his mother began to date his biological father.

In fact, when he showed Shu Lan his last memory, he had a premonition that things would end like this. No matter how many times it happened, as long as they didn't die, Shu Lan and Li Yanli would always be together.

Shu Maomao has seen a lot and has become more open-minded.

No matter whether it was a man or a woman, Li Yanli, An Selin, or the person who loved to bully him.

For example, when playing a duel game on the TV with a controller, Li Yanli was like a beginner. After three consecutive rounds, Shu Lan, who was randomly pressing the buttons, easily reduced his health bar, and called her a gaming genius.

When Shu Lan felt it was not fun anymore and went to the kitchen to cut fruit, when it was Shu Maomao's turn to play, Li Yanli suddenly got the hang of it. His fingers were so fast that there were afterimages, and his operation was smooth and sharp.

The character chosen by Shu Maomao was either beaten in the sky or lying on the ground, with his health bar dropping rapidly and no chance to fight back.

Shu Maomao glanced over and said, "You just said you don't know how to play."

Li Yanli said calmly, "I know how to play the game, but that character just now can't."

Shu Maomao's black eyes turned back, and the words he said were cold: "Fighting this is meaningless, I want to beat you."

Li Yanli raised her voice and shouted towards the kitchen, "Shu Lan, Maomao said he doesn't want to play games anymore, he wants to play—"

The sound behind was blocked by the air wall and stopped abruptly.

Shu Maomao glared at him: "Don't complain!"

Li Yanli shrugged: "Your mother doesn't allow us to fight."

Shu Maomao turned around with a sour face and pressed the handle hard: "Hmph, I want to choose a new character. Wait until I learn how to play. I can't kill you."

Shu Lan came out with the fruit, put the bowl down, and pulled out a long slip of paper. Standing behind them, she said seriously, "The base's operations have been handed over to my deputy commander, Secretary Huo, and a group of trusted generals. Commander Qin Xiaoshuang and Lord Plunderer Maomao will be taking a long vacation to take a posthumous portrait of Blue Star."

The words "posthumous portrait" made Li Yanli laugh out loud.

Shu Lan patted his shoulder and said, "Be serious. Are the zombies in your area going south? If not, come with us."

"I'll just ask Jiang Jun and the others to keep an eye on it."

"Okay, then let's go to the nearest resort island first. It used to be quite famous. I looked in the travel brochure and there's a hotel there. The most expensive rooms offer a view of the underwater world. However, there are no fish in the sea anymore, so it probably wouldn't be that nice to see."

Shu Maomao said, "Catch the fish in the space and put them in."

"Hahaha baby, there's no need to be so wasteful."

What she called taking a posthumous photo of Lan Xing was actually just traveling and checking in everywhere.

They went to islands, primeval forests and underground caves, deserts, snow-capped mountains...

While checking in, I also recycled a lot of garbage in the city and put it into the space for future use. After all, I don’t know how many years I will live underground.

Shu Lan and Li Yanli have memories from so many timelines, and their love life is no different from that of an old married couple.

But Shu Maomao and Li Yanli seemed to be natural enemies. While she was going to the toilet, the two plunderers could have a few rounds of fighting.

Shu Lan looked at the dilapidated house on the roadside, which was completely different from the one just now. She stared suspiciously at the two people who were too guilty to look her in the eye: "Fighting again?"

“No.”

"Then this building..."

Li Yanli was also a person who talked a lot. "It's been in disrepair for a long time. The wind blew it into this state. Isn't it Maomao?"

Shu Maomao said "hmm" reluctantly.

"Heh, if you can, don't let me catch you. I'll see if I'll pay any attention to you next time I see you fighting. Let's go! To the next attraction."

As Shu Lan turned around, Li Yanli took off the black T-shirt with a big hole burned on the back, took out a new one from the space and quickly put it on.

They are all the same style that I picked up at the factory, and you can't tell if you change one.

He whispered, "See, I told you your mom would be angry. If you want to play, play badminton."

Shu Maomao gritted his teeth and said, "Why don't you tell me what you are better than me!"

"Okay, let's compete. Believe it or not, I will win."

"I don't believe it."

Three months passed by unnoticed, turning into a pile of photos with different backgrounds.

Whether it was Li Yanli's memory before her restart or the memory after Shu Maomao's death, the meteorites fell at the turn of winter and spring that year.

In the past year, everyone has moved underground one after another, adapting to underground life for an unknown period in advance. She and Shu Maomao are the only two living people left on the ground.

Now they also had to go underground and said goodbye standing not far from the entrance to the underground base.

Li Yanli did not plan to go underground. He wanted to fulfill his previous promise and leave the underground to humans, while the zombies remained on the ground.

Shu Lan looked at him reluctantly and pointed at the earphones: "After I go downstairs, can I still use this to contact you?"

"Jiang Jun said it's possible, provided the distance between us is no more than 50 kilometers."

Shu Lan was a little disappointed: "If you go back to the north, we won't even be able to talk..."

She suddenly choked up and turned to Shu Maomao and said, "Baby, take out the photo album. Mommy has something to say to him. Can you wait for me inside first?"

Shu Maomao took out a thick photo album from the space and gave it to her, then turned and walked towards the entrance of the underground base.

There was a twenty-meter-long underground passage from the ground to the entrance. He walked on the steps of the passage, stopped and looked back. He saw Shu Lan handing the photo album to Li Yanli, then took a step forward, while Li Yanli took a step back, keeping a safe distance again.

Would she follow him north?

This thought suddenly popped up in Shu Maomao's heart, and it became heavier and heavier.

In the endings of so many timelines, Shu Lan chose to die beside Li Yanli, and in many literary stories about love that he had read, many people who were deeply in love would choose to commit suicide together in the end.

Shu Maomao frowned, pursed his lips, turned his head back, walked down a few steps with his back to them, and sat down to wait.

If Shu Lan wanted to commit suicide with Li Yanli, Shu Maomao would forcibly take her to the underground and lock her up.

No, he doesn't agree.

She said she would grow up with him.

"Why are you hiding?" Shu Lan glared at Li Yanli.

Li Yanli touched his neck awkwardly, lowered his head and said, "It's a reflex. I can feel my internal organs rotting, and I'm afraid the smell will bother you."

Shu Lan took another step forward, hugged his waist, and put her face above his heart.

It was quiet inside, his heart had stopped beating.

Li Yanli clenched his fists to hide his nails that might scratch her and cause infection, and held her in his arms.

This was their first and last hug after their showdown.
