The next morning, Cang Yu and Cang Lang waited outside for Lin Yue to come out for physical training, but she didn't appear until ten o'clock.
She is usually very punctual, only arriving early, never late.
Cang Yu waited another ten minutes, but no one came out, so he knocked on Lin Yue's door.
He worked overtime last night to replace the door with a new one. Although the original door was bulletproof, it still relied on a key to open and close. When they weren't around, they could easily pry it open with some special methods and time.
The door is still the same type, but he replaced it with a combination lock, which is purely password controlled and doesn't require a key. This type of lock has stronger anti-theft performance.
After knocking on the door for five minutes without any response, Cang Yu simply entered the password he had set the night before, and unsurprisingly, the door opened.
After arriving last night, Lin Yue went straight to her parents' room, chose the spot at the head of the bed where the bed used to be, hugged her knees, buried her head in the small protective circle she had created, and sat there motionless all night.
The snow wolf sensed her emotions and simply slept quietly beside her.
She had a very good relationship with her parents since she was a child, and they could talk about anything. She never thought that they would leave her so soon.
She used to think that she would live her life alone, without getting married, without taking a husband into her family, without leaving them, and without letting anyone come to her house to cause them trouble. She would just stay with them for the rest of her life.
I'll stay with them until they pass away, and when she gets old, I'll find a few of my old girlfriends to go to a nursing home and dance with the old men.
But they left, at the most unlikely age, together. Mom said she would make her favorite braised pork and sweet and sour pork ribs that night. They said goodbye in the morning, but they never saw each other again.
Now, I don't even have any thoughts of home anymore.
She wasn't dependent on them, she wasn't immature, she just loved them very, very much, she just wanted to be their little darling for life, she just missed them.
When Cang Yu opened the door, he saw that the house, which used to be warm every time he came, was now cold and empty.
Upon hearing someone open the door, the snow wolf immediately came out of the room to investigate.
Seeing that the room the snow wolf came out of wasn't Lin Yue's, Cang Yu patted the wolf, instructing it to find a way to lead the snow wolf out.
Canglang assured him that he was absolutely capable of completing the mission.
It's unclear how the two wolves communicated, but although the snow wolf was reluctant, it was eventually led away.
Cang Yu entered the room, where the curtains were drawn, and no light came in, making the room appear particularly dark.
Sitting by the wall, Lin Yue now looked like a helpless child, lost and disoriented, unable to find her way home.
Cang Yu walked up to Lin Yue and squatted down, wanting to reach out and pat her shoulder, but after thinking for a moment, he put his hand down and just softly called her name: "Lin Yue!"
Hearing someone call her name, Lin Yue slowly raised her head, and suddenly smiled at Cang Yu: "Dad, you're back. Did Mom go to buy groceries? I want to eat sweet and sour pork ribs and braised pork."
"Lin Yue, they're gone. Look closely, I'm Cang Yu." Cang Yu's cold voice shattered Lin Yue's dream.
Lin Yue's smile vanished instantly, tears welled up in her eyes, and finally dripped down.
Seemingly not wanting others to see her vulnerable side, she buried her head in her arms again, and all that could be seen was her shoulders trembling.
Cang Yu had no intention of letting her shrink back. He grabbed her arms with both hands, forcing her to raise her head, and stared at her with cold, hard eyes.
“Lin Yue, if someone were to rush up to you in the current state, you would be torn to pieces without even a bone fragment. Think about it carefully, would your parents want to see you like this? I believe they would definitely want you to live a good life.”
In the apocalypse, the last thing you need is decadence, helplessness, and despair; these will only give others the opportunity to bully you.
Lin Yue's tears kept falling, and Cang Yu in front of her was blurred.
"Waaah..." The suppressed voice finally came out, "They're all gone, even the memories they left behind are gone, I have nothing left."
The bracelet transformed into a space, then into a flower. Everything in the house that carried their presence was taken away, ruined, or burned. The house was now empty.
Cang Yu didn't know how to comfort Lin Yue. He had never comforted anyone in his two lifetimes combined, so he could only let her cry louder and louder.
Maybe, crying it out will make me feel better!
Cang Yu didn't let go of Lin Yue. He was afraid that if he let go, Lin Yue would lose the strength to support herself. He just held her arms and watched her cry.
Lin Yue cried for an unknown amount of time until she was exhausted and her mind and body relaxed, and she fell asleep.
There was no bed, no sofa, not even a chair in the room. Cang Yu had no choice but to sit down next to her and let her lean on his shoulder to sleep, while he also took a nap.
Lin Yue woke up at one o'clock in the afternoon because she was hungry.
She felt someone put their arm around her shoulder, and her body tensed up instantly.
A moment later, recalling her behavior in front of Cang Yu that morning, she suddenly felt a little embarrassed and didn't know what to say to Cang Yu.
"Awake? If you're awake, get up and make something to eat. Canglang and Xuelang are hungry." Cang Yu withdrew his hand, stood up, pretended not to see Lin Yue's expression, and walked out of the room.
Women really do benefit from crying, both physically and mentally.
Lin Yue adjusted to her numb legs for a while before standing up while holding onto the wall.
Looking at the empty room, she took a deep breath and held back the tears that were about to well up again.
"Dad, Mom, don't worry, Yueyue has grown up and will live a good life. From now on, Yueyue will no longer live in the dream she has woven. Yueyue will keep you in her heart and strive to overcome the hardships of this apocalypse."
After kicking her legs a few times, the numbness in her legs finally subsided. Lin Yue walked out of the room, solemnly closed the door, and began taking things out of her spatial storage.
To preserve the house as it was when her parents were still alive, she hadn't put those things into her space. Now, except for the water heater and air conditioner, everything else has been moved, and she has to rearrange everything.
However, this time, we'll just do a simple setup and not make it too complicated.
She took out a set of table and chairs from the living room, a set of kitchen utensils from the kitchen, and put a bed in her room, which was thickly made up and covered with a warm down comforter.
After a simple setup, she took out today's lunch from her spatial storage: braised pork, sweet and sour pork ribs, sauerkraut fish, and mushroom soup. The three dishes and one soup were quite a generous portion, enough for her and Cang Yu to eat.
As for Snow Wolf and Gray Wolf, each wolf gets a basin of ten catties of pork. They don't even need to go out; they can just shout "Dinner's ready!" from inside the house, because when Cang Yu went out, he didn't close the door.
A short while later, a man and two wolves entered from outside.
Seeing that Lin Yue was better again, the snow wolf happily circled around her.
At the dinner table, Lin Yue asked while eating, "Cang Yu, do you need any more arrangements on your end?"
Although she didn't go to see him, she knew it probably wasn't much better; she remembered that his bed was also made of wood.
"Okay, just put a bed, a few blankets, two chairs, and some clothes you don't wear anymore to make a nest for Canglang," Cang Yu replied without any hesitation.
