After the apocalypse.
They always use clean water for cooking and drinking, and there is also a large supply of bottled water stored next door.
This is the current situation.
Lin Mo could only pour the water into a bucket and take a cold shower to make do. He still rested in Lin Meijing's room that night.
At the beginning.
Lin Meijing remained relatively calm, seemingly wanting to maintain her previous victory, appearing completely at ease.
but.
This time, Lin Mo was clearly not so easy to deal with, and she quickly lost her composure.
The battle lasted for two and a half hours.
final.
After Lin Meijing pleaded repeatedly, Lin Mo reluctantly let her go, and was still somewhat unsatisfied.
afterwards.
Lin Mo leisurely lit a cigarette, looked at Lin Meijing beside him who looked puzzled, and said with a hint of smugness:
"I told you last time that something came up at the last minute, now you believe me, right? Let's see if you dare to be arrogant again."
After regaining my senses.
Lin Meijing bit her lip and stared at Lin Mo with a resentful look. She couldn't understand why the other person had changed so much in just a few days.
Not just in terms of physical strength...
With no power or internet available and nothing else to do, Lin Mo and Lin Meijing started chatting.
Lin Meijing had already found out about his past, but Lin Meijing's past remained a mystery to him.
Lin Mo was also quite curious about this.
This time, Lin Meijing didn't try to hide anything; she sighed and then recounted her experience.
It's actually not that complicated.
It wasn't the scenario of the man cheating, as some might have guessed; it was simply because the man was impotent.
In response to this.
Lin Meijing is actually very considerate of the other person's feelings and has never brought up this matter, carefully protecting the other person's self-esteem.
And he has never done anything outrageous.
But that's precisely why.
Instead, the man felt insulted, his temper became increasingly irritable, and they started arguing every few days.
but.
They didn't actually take any action.
Under these circumstances, Lin Muxue gradually changed from a cheerful and optimistic little girl into a taciturn person.
later.
Lin Meijing couldn't stand this kind of life any longer, so she divorced the man.
After it's over.
The man didn't fight for custody, nor did he ask for any property; he simply took some money and left the country.
later.
He devoted all his energy to his career, even making a name for himself abroad, and seemed to know that it was his fault.
The living expenses for the mother and daughter have never stopped.
Lin Mo was slightly surprised after hearing this. It turned out that this was the reason, but it also seemed normal.
He has a mature and attractive wife at home, and he is probably often envied by his friends.
But in reality...
He could only watch helplessly, unable to do anything.
The envious words from his friends felt like sharp knives piercing his heart; no normal man could bear that.
Do you know his current situation?
Lin Meijing knew exactly what Lin Mo meant, and couldn't help but roll her eyes at him.
"I deleted all contact information after the divorce."
“It’s only right that he provides living expenses. This whole thing was his fault, and that little bit of money can’t make up for the harm he caused Xiaoxue.”
"As for what happens after the apocalypse."
"Neither Xiaoxue nor I contacted him proactively, but after checking where he worked, I guess something must have happened a long time ago."
Having said all that...
Lin Meijing looked up at Lin Mo: "Are you satisfied now?"
Upon hearing this, Lin Mo immediately began to cough, and Lin Meijing didn't say anything more.
Unexpected.
This little rascal is so possessive, but she doesn't dislike that feeling.
.........
"Oh, right."
Lin Meijing lay lazily on the bed in her pajamas, as if she had suddenly remembered something.
"You should talk to Xiaoxue when you have time. She's been wanting to thank you for a while."
That seems to be true.
During this period, he hadn't paid much attention to Lin Muxue; he was either out running errands or spending time with Lin Meijing.
Last time.
Lin Muxue seemed to have wanted to find him, but he arrived at the wrong time, making the situation a little awkward.
"It doesn't seem appropriate for me to go there now; she should already be asleep so late."
From what I can tell...
Could it be that this little rascal wants to keep tormenting her? She's still a bit out of sorts.
no.
Lin Meijing's legs went weak when she recalled what had just happened, and she immediately said, "There's nothing inappropriate about it."
"Xiaoxue should be reading in her room at this time. You should go over and have a good talk with her."
As he spoke.
Lin Mo was pushed out by Lin Meijing.
no way.
Lin Mo walked to the door of the room next door, reached out and gently knocked, and asked softly:
"Xiaoxue, are you asleep?"
The words had barely left his mouth.
Light footsteps echoed from the room, and soon Lin Muxue opened the door, a hint of joy on her face.
but.
She stood at the door, looking at Lin Mo without saying a word.
Lin Mo took the opportunity to glance inside. The room was clean, tidy, and had a girlish feel, along with a faint fragrance.
The desk lamp was still on, and there were two thick stacks of books on it, as if someone had just been reading.
There's a power outage and no internet right now.
Reading is a great way to pass the time.
Lin Mo didn't know what to talk about for a moment, so he could only ask quietly, "Xiao Xue, are you settling in alright?"
Lin Muxue blushed and nodded gently.
"I remember you really like reading comics and novels. I'll have someone go out and find some more tomorrow and send them over to you."
That's a good suggestion.
Her desk was covered with old books, most of which she had already read. She had been rereading them two or three times these past few days.
only.
Lin Muxue wasn't particularly happy. She reached out and tugged at Lin Mo's sleeve, speaking weakly:
"Could you wait here for me for a moment?"
Although he didn't know what the other person wanted, Lin Mo still looked at her and nodded.
then.
Lin Muxue gently closed the door, and rustling sounds came from inside the room, as if someone was looking for something.
Could it be...?
What gift is she looking for to express her gratitude?
Lin Mo felt that this was very likely.
Lin Muxue has strong hands-on skills and has always enjoyed making handicrafts.
.........
Lin Muxue didn't keep Lin Mo waiting outside for long; soon the noise inside the room disappeared.
She opened the door again.
Lin Muxue stood timidly at the door with her hands behind her back, looking like she was about to give a gift.
Not only that.
She even changed into a beautiful JK uniform, her slender and long legs encased in black stockings, her head bowed and her face flushed.
"Is it...good-looking?"
Seeing this, Lin Mo had no other thoughts in mind and sincerely gave his evaluation: "Very good-looking."
In his view.
Although Lin Muxue is an introverted girl who likes to stay at home, that doesn't mean she doesn't love beauty.
Lin Meijing is very cheerful in this regard.
but.
Lin Muxue used to secretly wear all the pretty clothes she bought in her room by herself, but now she has the courage to wear them and look at herself in them.
This is a great start.
The next step should be to give a gift, so Lin Mo simply asked directly:
"Xiaoxue, do you have a gift for me?"
Lin Muxue blushed upon hearing this, and, suppressing her shyness, nodded gently.
"Come in first."
Why do we need to go into the room?
Why not just give yourself the gift hidden behind your back?
Despite having some doubts in my heart.
Lin Mo still went into Lin Muxue's room, just as she put her hand down, revealing that there was nothing in it at all.
Forehead……
Did I guess wrong?
In fact, Lin Muxue hadn't prepared a gift at all, so why did she nod just now?
I was just about to ask.
Lin Muxue's heart started pounding uncontrollably. Finally, she mustered up her courage, raised her head, and moved closer to Lin Mo.
Now.
Lin Mo finally knew what the other person meant by the gift.
