Chapter 22 Chapter 22 Woman
Of course Jiang Xi knew.
She did not respond, but just grabbed Lu Suye's wrist with her hand as a token of her allegiance.
She would never leave him again, no matter what he did to her.
Seeing Jiang Ying's reaction, Lu Suye changed the back of his fingers that were stroking her cheek into his entire hand, controlling the back of her neck and pulling her closer.
He wants to kiss himself.
Jiang Qian closed her eyes, waiting for Lu Suye's kiss.
But what was beyond her expectation was that Lu Suye did not kiss her lips, but kissed her forehead.
It was a kiss full of love and compassion.
It is also a mark.
From now on, she belonged to him.
Being held in Lu Suye's arms and listening to his heartbeat, Jiang Qian felt a long-lost sense of security. He held her for a long time.
When Jiang Xi had almost recovered, she put her feet back on the ground.
The situation was so chaotic just now that she didn't know where her cat had run off to.
Now that I've calmed down, I can't help but feel anxious.
"Don't worry," Lu Suye assured Jiang Ting as he transferred the available supplies from her car. They had to abandon the car, "I'll definitely find it for you."
As soon as I opened the trunk, a pair of fireflies lit up.
Lu Suye: "..."
This is not a firefly at all.
"Be brave!!"
"Meow!!"
One person and one cat, crying with joy.
With the promise of protection from a powerful psychic, Jiang Qian no longer had to worry about her own safety, and she also got her kitten back.
Good times will come after bad times, everything is moving in the right direction, and the sunshine outside the car window is the same as always.
But at this moment, Jiang Ying felt the real warmth.
Sitting in the passenger seat, Jiang Yongzhuang took a nap on her legs.
Since she has decided to be with Lu Suye, she will follow him from now on, no matter where he goes.
Lu Suye said that he would take her back to the "community" where he settled, where there were no zombies and all living facilities were available.
There, she can live like a normal person, basically no different from before the zombie outbreak.
To Jiang Xi, it sounded like heaven.
"Yeah." She nodded.
Lu Suye had rarely seen Jiang Qian like this.
I have to say, she is much better behaved than before.
At least, in front of myself.
But then, Jiang Qian suddenly took off the knitted cardigan she was wearing in extreme anger and threw it out of the car window.
Lu Suye was stunned.
“???”
"This dress is dirty!!" Jiang Xi's face was filled with disgust and disdain.
How disgusting, she had been wearing it for so long.
She only remembered it when the thug pulled it off and sniffed it under his nose.
"Oh, I see."
Lu Suye really didn't know.
It's just a piece of clothing, just let it go if it's lost.
It’s okay to just wear a halter dress. Anyway, there are no “wolves” to guard against now.
"It's okay," Lu Suye comforted Jiang Qian, "When the time comes, I'll find someone to make you a new one that you like."
The car is still moving and it is said that it will take a day and a night.
After a moment of anger, Jiang Qian fell calm in the passenger seat, her head leaning against the back of the chair. Lu Suye thought she was asleep and did not disturb her.
But only Jiang Qian knew that what she lost today was not just a piece of clothing.
Before getting on the car, when Lu Suye was transferring supplies, she stared at a certain place below the road for a long time.
After hesitating for a long time, she still didn't go down.
Some things, once they are in the past, should be left in the past...
And, some people.
-
A red sports car was parked alone on the road outside the city of Florence.
Because of its beautiful appearance and easy-to-use driving experience, it is deeply loved by young female consumers.
But it has now been abandoned.
In the wheat fields on the side of the road, the flames that had not yet been extinguished spread wildly, devouring everything.
Above this devastated land, dense red clouds are crumbling.
There was a faint rumble of heavy thunder.
Snap, snap—
Raindrops as big as beans fell one after another, extinguishing the remaining fire and dispersing the clumping ashes.
In this pile of ashes, some metal objects that were originally upright completely lost their support and lay buried in the heavy rain.
In a corner where no one cares, I look at this rainy, restless scene with loneliness.
Black summer.
-
The car drove on the road for a day and a night, and at sunset the next day, it drove into a steep valley.
Seeing that Jiang Xi looked listless, Lu Suye told her that they would be there soon.
Jiang Ying slept most of the time during the journey.
Every time I woke up, I saw Lu Suye driving. Except for the rest time given to Jiang Xi, they never stopped for a moment.
Of course, I didn't meet anyone else.
Jiang Qian didn't know whether the humans in this world would have abilities far exceeding those of ordinary people after awakening their special powers.
But it seems that this is indeed the case. Anyway, the two psychics she has seen are both very energetic...
If only she had superpowers, she wouldn't feel as weak and powerless as she does now.
Outside the car window, the overlapping mountains and ridges, illuminated by the setting sun, appear to be a deep green with a golden hue.
Lu Suye took her to the mountains?
Until the huge neon sign in front of the road came into view.
[Rashivijashi]
Only then did Jiang Xi realize where this place was originally.
As the largest den of pleasure and money-making in America, this valley brings hundreds of millions of dollars in fiscal revenue to the local state government every year, so it is also known as the "Valley of Paradise."
But now, it has a new owner.
Entering the hinterland from the outermost part, Jiang Xi saw the protective wall of the base.
The high-voltage electric fence isolates all creatures that try to climb up. Those who force their way in will end up being electrocuted into charcoal in an instant.
Wait until it is completely dark.
Their car stopped in front of a large checkpoint, where a row of fully armed guards with live ammunition were on standby.
At the same time, this is also the entrance and exit checkpoint of Paradise Valley.
Unknown vehicles visiting.
The defenders came forward to inquire.
Since you can drive here, you must know the rules here.
"Check-up or medication?" He said very experiencedly.
When the driver's window rolled down, it was spotted by a man who looked like a captain standing nearby, who had been distracted and had just come to his senses.
He was horrified and blurted out angrily, "Eat your ass! This is the president!!"
Defender: “…” Is the first day at work so exciting?
Let it go!
The barrier rose, and when Lu Suye drove over the speed bump, the captain was smiling at the car window.
"Boss, you've worked hard."
As he was laughing, he suddenly met the pair of curious and confused eyes in the passenger seat.
man:"……!!?"
Lu Suye's car drove smoothly all the way and entered the Paradise Valley.
"I have something urgent to attend to,"
Lu Suye drove the car to a luxurious white building. This was the original city hall of Laxiweijiaxi. Seeing this building meant that they had arrived at the central city area, which was the safest place in the entire Paradise Valley.
"Will you wait for me here, or come with me?"
When getting off the car, he asked Jiang Xi.
Jiang Xi leaned against him instinctively, "With you."
When you first arrive in a strange place, you are always anxious. You will only feel safe when you have familiar people around you.
"Okay." Lu Suye didn't mind at all that she might hear any secrets.
However, when Jiang Qian followed Lu Suye into the city hall, opened the door to the conference room, and walked in, she was instantly swallowed by countless voices...
"Boss."
“Boss!!”
“President!”
“…”
Everyone was greeting Lu Suye.
Jiang Xi couldn't help but start to regret her decision.
Why are there so many people here?
Moreover, it was too obvious that those eyes, except for a brief pause on the "long-missing" president Lu Suye,
Then, unexpectedly, all of them were transferred to me at the same time.
After such a long time since her debut, Jiang Ting has been showing herself in front of the camera. She thought she no longer cared about the burning gazes.
But all this is based on the premise that the nightmare-like experience during the day did not happen to her.
She is very nervous.
Lu Suye felt the strength of Jiang Xi's cold fingers gripping his arm and the touch of her soft cheek.
In the eyes of all the veteran managers of the Paradise Guild, what they saw was a woman hiding behind the president.
She looks beautiful, but a little timid.
That’s right.
In her arms, she was holding a cute kitten.
