Chen Xinyang was stunned for a moment, then burst into laughter and said, "That is indeed a joyous occasion!"
Everyone was laughing.
Only when Chen Li smiled did a fleeting, almost imperceptible sadness flash in her eyes.
It's over.
Now Dad was even less willing to confess his feelings.
The birthday party ended happily.
Chen Xinyang bid farewell to Wang Ziqi and the others, saying with a smile, "You guys continue having fun, I'm going back to the Ministry of Military Industry to continue my work."
Chen Li couldn't help but say, "Dad, can't you stay a little longer?"
Chen Xinyang shook his head and said, "The task at hand is very heavy now, and we must solve more problems as soon as possible."
Knowing that the Ministry of Military Industry needed to solve the problem of cutting grade 4 pigskin as soon as possible, Wang Ziqi said understandingly, "Okay, Brother Chen, take care of your health and don't overwork yourself."
Chen Xinyang nodded and said again, "Happy birthday, Xiao Ding! And congratulations, Ziqi, on becoming an Evolver!"
Xiao Ding was mute, so he could only nod frantically at Chen Xinyang.
Chen Xinyang smiled and waved, then glanced at Wang Ziqi one last time before turning and leaving.
Wang Ziqi silently watched Chen Xinyang's not-so-broad back.
Until he disappeared around the corner.
Outside the villa, Chen Xinyang turned around and glanced at it, then sighed deeply.
Time flies.
Seven days passed in the blink of an eye.
It snowed last night in the Second Fuxing City.
Overnight, a thick layer of snow appeared, turning the gray main color into snow white.
The City Lord's Mansion.
The courtyard, spanning several thousand square meters, was covered in thick snow, transforming it into a pure white fairytale world.
Meanwhile, the mutated wolf, Little White, was leaping, running, and frolicking wildly in the snow.
Its ten-meter-long body, excluding its tail, would kick up a cloud of snow mist with each leap.
Its pure white fur blended almost seamlessly with the snowy landscape, with only its icy blue eyes shining brightly against the white backdrop.
Ye Qingrou, dressed in a white down jacket, tightly gripped Xiaobai's fur, laughing happily.
Beside it, Jiang An'an, wearing a red cotton-padded jacket, was also jumping and running wildly, like a leaping flame.
Every now and then, they would scoop up the snow and throw it into the air, jumping and leaping as they chased after the drifting snowflakes.
Her mouth occasionally emitted a silvery laugh.
Seeing snow for the first time filled Jiang An'an with ecstatic joy.
In the snow, Jiang Wu held the Blood Maiden in his arms, standing with Ning Chuxia and Mi Qingying, watching everything with a smile.
The outside temperature is already several degrees below zero.
However, Jiang Wu, Xue Nu, and Ning Chuxia were not dressed in many layers.
Because of its relatively high level of evolution.
Even though Jiang Wu was only wearing a thin layer of underwear, a layer of level-three snakeskin armor, and a layer of level-three crocodile skin robe on top, he didn't feel cold at all.
You could even say that he no longer feels anything about ordinary temperature changes.
Because of their unique physical condition, Blood Woman and Ning Chuxia have little sense of temperature.
Even Jiang An'an isn't actually afraid of the cold.
However, the Blood Woman was afraid she would be cold, so she forced her to wear the red cotton-padded jacket.
Mi Qingying's attire was different; she wore a fur coat made of level-three giant rat skin and a fur hat made of level-three giant rat skin.
Because of the tight schedule, her fur coat was not made very finely; instead, it looked more like a hunter's outfit.
However, the fur of the level 3 giant rat is very fine and has a pure black color, which is very shiny.
Therefore, it looks quite beautiful on Mi Qingying.
Moreover, Mi Qingying herself is extremely beautiful, and the combination of the two creates a unique aesthetic.
Jiang Wu originally planned to get a set for Ye Qingrou as well.
But Ye Qingrou refused; she was afraid of mice.
This left Jiang Wu helpless, and he could only tell her not to run around, for fear that she might get into danger.
Another strong gust of cold wind swept in.
Jiang Wu couldn't help but pull Mi Qingying into his arms and ask, "Xiao Mi, aren't you cold?"
Mi Qingying nestled comfortably in Jiang Wu's arms and whispered, "I'm not cold."
At that moment, she felt completely enveloped in immense happiness and sweetness.
Last winter was the worst.
Hiding in a dark and damp basement, lacking food and clothing, they also had to endure the stench of the basement.
The most devastating thing was that she was all alone at the time.
There wasn't even a single person to talk to; they faced danger and endless darkness every day.
But now.
She was wearing a fur coat made of level-three giant rat skin, with the softest cashmere lining, making her feel warm all over.
Every room in the city lord's mansion was filled with incense, and the smell was no longer rotten, but rather a faint scent of sandalwood and fruit.
She can freely take a hot bath, soak in the tub, and enjoy her leisurely time.
She can eat whatever she wants: candy, drinks, snacks, meat, vegetables, and even mutated fruits.
The meat and internal organs of the level 4 evolved pig are incredibly delicious.
Most importantly, having your loved ones by your side.
We're together almost 24/7, and I enjoy the pleasures and happiness of being a woman every day...
Mi Qingying couldn't help but hug Jiang Wu tightly, burying her head in his chest and whispering, "Husband, I'm so happy."
Jiang Wu put his arm around Mi Qingying's slender waist and said with a smile, "As long as you're happy."
Then, he looked at the Blood Woman and said, "Xiao Ran, are you really not coming back to Fuxing City with me?"
Blood Woman straightened up, looked at Jiang Wu with a charming smile and said, "I'm not going. I want to develop this place well. Besides, An'an's ability to find survivors is very useful. I want to take her with me to conquer a larger territory for you, my husband, and collect more survivors."
Jiang Wu nodded and said seriously, "Then don't wander off. Take a taxi from Fuxing City. It'll be quick. I'll come to see you more often then."
The Blood Woman smiled seductively and said, "I know, my husband."
Jiang Wu thought for a moment and then said, "Qingyu is doing research at Nuclear Defense Base 101. You can go and visit her when you have time. You can also discuss with her whether we can set up a research lab here. I'm still a little worried about her being there alone."
The woman nodded and smiled, saying, "Honey, don't worry, she's my sister too."
Jiang Wu smiled, released Mi Qingying, picked up the Blood Woman horizontally, and said softly, "Then I'll feed you properly first."
The Blood Woman smiled dreamily, then said softly, "Husband, let's invite Zi Ling and Chen Yin over too. They've been working very hard lately."
Jiang Wu smiled and nodded.
Two days later.
The First Brigade of the First Army of the Revival Army and the Third Army of the Revival Army, fully equipped and ready to go, began to advance towards Revival City.
Ning Chuxia, as the commander of the Third Army, followed the main force.
Jiang Wu, along with Mi Qingying, rode a giant golden bird towards Nuclear Defense Base 101.
At the city lord's mansion, watching the golden bird fly away, the Blood Maiden's eyes were filled with reluctance.
Holding the Blood Girl's hand, Jiang An'an bit her nails and whispered, "Mommy, why don't we go with Daddy?"
