"Xu Xing, you're pressing on my hair."
A crisp sound came from under the covers in the early morning.
Xu Xing, who was still fast asleep, immediately stood up, then suddenly realized that he was not wearing anything, so he quickly found a pair of shorts to put on.
Although the two had already consummated their marriage, it was still somewhat shameful to be naked in broad daylight.
Xu Xing's body was much darker than before, or you could call him bronze. Now, I believe no one would call him a pretty boy anymore.
Because of his continuous advancement, Xu Xing's originally thin body now has well-proportioned muscles, making him much stronger than before the apocalypse.
Of course, there's a huge gap compared to those fitness gurus, but his well-defined eight-pack abs and sculpted chest muscles are enough for Xu Xing to proudly display.
With a proper diet, Xu Xing's height showed signs of a second growth spurt. Although he only grew one or two centimeters taller than before, he looked a whole size bigger overall.
Even Su Xixi, who had been injured once, looked healthier than before the apocalypse.
After a night of getting to know her, Xu Xing was amazed by her physical abilities. He never expected that such a gentle woman would be so crazy at night.
It's also possible that, because the two absorbed crystal cores along the way, Su Xixi has already reached the peak of level one again.
This stark contrast captivated Xu Xing, who remained almost completely enthralled throughout the night.
Xu Xing rubbed his lower back, thinking about the future and whether it would be necessary to get some tiger bones to toughen up and strengthen his physique.
Considering that he was already a level three ability user, he was actually finding it difficult to cope with Su Xixi, who was only a level one ability user.
As the saying goes, there are no fields that can't be plowed properly, only oxen that have died from exhaustion. Looking at Su Xixi's rosy cheeks, you can tell who the winner of this battle is between the two.
Finally, he neatly put on his coat, walked to the bedside, and gently ruffled Su Xixi's long hair: "Get dressed and come out early, we still have a mission today."
After saying that, under Su Xixi's shy gaze, Xu Xing turned around, opened the door, and left. The moment he opened the door...
Bai Ling had been waiting at the door of the room the whole time. When she saw Xu Xing come out, she meowed angrily twice and then pounced on Xu Xing's chest.
Its two claws, clenched into fists, repeatedly slapped at Xu Xing.
In Xu Xing's mind, Bai Ling's voice, complaining, appeared again.
"You big bad guy, you big bad guy, you're the one who made me who I am today."
Xu Xing's first reaction was: "Damn, when did Bai Ling wake up? If she's been at the door the whole time, wouldn't she have heard everything that Su Qianqian and I did?"
However, Xu Xing could only pretend to be ignorant about this matter. As long as he didn't ask, he believed that Bai Ling wouldn't take the initiative to tell him, which would be equivalent to not hearing it. Anyway, he had a thick skin.
Xu Xing then closed the door, picked Bai Ling up, and rubbed her cheeks with his hands: "It was my fault this time. What do you want? I'll make it up to you."
After saying that, Xu Xing took out a can of herring from his hand: "How about this?"
Bai Ling was initially curious and brought her pink nose close to smell it.
"Ugh! It stinks! You're the one who ate it! I want the crystal core, give me the crystal core! If you don't give it to me, I won't do anything for you anymore."
Bai Ling's words were righteous and eloquent, but in Xu Xing's mind, that childish voice didn't have much power.
Xu Xing smiled and took out a handful of crystal cores, put them in a small cloth bag, and put it around Bai Ling's neck: "Is that alright now? I saved you, and you still want to eat and drink my food."
This improved Bai Ling's mood. Ignoring Xu Xing's words, she jumped off him, took elegant steps, and hopped into the hall, heading towards the place where Gouzi used to live.
It's important to know that Su Xixi's family is one of the most prestigious in Jinghai; even their doghouse is extremely luxurious.
The dog is now too big, so it usually sleeps alone in the backyard, which also serves as a good warning.
After seeing Bai Ling off, Xu Xing noticed Jiang Shiyu sitting on the living room sofa. Just like yesterday, her face was still expressionless, and she just sat there blankly.
Seeing Xu Xing approach, he stood up to greet him: "I..."
"Now that you're awake, just call me Boss from now on."
Don't worry about anything these next few days. When the rest of the people arrive, have them arrange an empty place for you. Just tell them what supplies you need.
As he spoke, Xu Xing took out some more crystal cores and handed them to her, explaining how to use them.
Although Jiang Shiyu is not very useful right now, we still have to nurture her first, since Xu Xing doesn't lack those crystal cores anyway.
After a while, Su Xixi, who was dressed neatly, also came downstairs.
Xu Xing gave Jiang Shiyu a brief introduction, and from the tone of his words, she could sense that this woman and Xu Xing had a very close relationship.
Realizing this, Jiang Shiyu also took the initiative to distance herself from Xu Xing.
Xu Xing didn't say much after realizing it, but Su Xixi had a smile on her lips.
Xu Xing glanced at the time and realized that the others should arrive soon.
Sure enough, the roar of sports cars soon came from the entrance of the courtyard.
As soon as they entered the hall, Xu Xing reprimanded them without hesitation: "Why are you driving sports cars? We're going out to fight a war, not to show off. These sports cars can't even kill a zombie. What's the point of driving them?"
Xu Xing then changed the subject: "Come and eat first. Before you leave, replace all the cars with bigger SUVs or off-road vehicles. Oh, and leave my old armored pickup truck to Ye Kai."
