Now that Xia Xiaonuan had expressed her opinion, Zhang Lin no longer doubted the city lord.
He didn't trust the city lord, but he trusted Xia Xiaonuan.
Moreover, Xia Xiaonuan is not the kind of naive and easily fooled person.
Since Xia Xiaonuan trusts the city lord, it means that the city lord has no bad intentions.
"As people of Hope City, it is our duty to protect the city lord. We are willing to accompany the city lord on this journey!" Zhang Lin immediately expressed his loyalty with a smile.
It was as if the person who had just looked suspicious wasn't him at all.
That is to say, her nose is made of metal, otherwise the city lord would really be furious.
Even if you give him benefits, he will still suspect you.
That's infuriating!
Ironically, what he said afterwards made him sound like a loyal subordinate.
How shameless!
Suppressing his anger, the city lord said calmly, "Go back and prepare. We'll set off tomorrow."
"So soon?" Zhang Lin was somewhat taken aback.
"It's better to do it sooner rather than later!" the city lord said.
"Oh well……"
Zhang Lin didn't say anything more.
Let him go out then. Anyway, he hasn't experienced the outside world after the new era yet. Just treat it as a trip.
"Go back and prepare." The city lord waved her hand; she really didn't want to see Zhang Lin's face.
"Let's go."
Xia Xiaonuan came over and took his hand, and the two left the city lord's mansion together.
Strolling through the streets of Hope City.
Busy people were everywhere.
They walked in and out of Hope City, just like office workers before the apocalypse. Office workers earned wages to support themselves, while they began to search for various extraordinary creatures, hunt them down, and obtain extraordinary materials. These extraordinary materials could make them stronger and could also be exchanged for various resources.
At this point, some people had already awakened their extraordinary templates, but the majority of them had not.
Or perhaps it's due to scarce resources.
Alternatively, they may feel that the level of the extraordinary template they can awaken now is too low, or not suitable for them, so they postpone awakening and continue to search for other extraordinary materials to make extraordinary template awakening potions.
In short, everyone has been very busy since the new era began.
Apart from Zhang Lin.
Xia Xiaonuan was the same. In the past, she was also busy completing various tasks assigned by the city lord, earning merits, and receiving awakening gems as rewards from the city lord for her meritorious service.
Now, she can hold Zhang Lin's hand and stroll leisurely down the street.
"Stay here tonight!"
The two chatted as they walked, and when they reached the front door of her house, she suddenly invited Zhang Lin to stay.
Zhang Lin readily agreed to this.
That night.
Zhang Xiaonian spent the whole night doing his summer homework.
The next day.
Zhang Lin dressed neatly, then patted Xia Xiaonuan, who was lying lazily beside him, and said, "Get up, we're about to leave."
Xia Xiaonuan lay on the bed with her eyes closed, completely naked. The sunlight streaming in from the window shone on her fair, jade-like skin, reflecting a soft white light.
She was tall and slender, with firm muscles all over her body, especially her lower abdomen, where there were faint lines of abdominal muscles.
Her long, slender legs were incredibly strong. At the most crucial moment, she would wrap her arms around Zhang Lin's waist with tremendous force, as if she wanted to break his waist in two.
At this moment, her alluring legs lay limply on the bed, as if she didn't want to move at all.
Hearing Zhang Lin's voice, she murmured lazily, "You, how high are your stats? You've been up all night and you're still full of energy? Sigh... I still prefer the old you, ten minutes was just right."
Snap!
A crisp sound.
Zhang Lin withdrew his hand, as if it still carried warmth and that amazingly bouncy texture.
His face darkened. "If you don't speak, no one will think you're mute. Get up now!"
This is exposing their shortcomings!
He used to neglect exercise, while Xia Xiaonuan exercised regularly for cycling. In bed, he was indeed no match for Xia Xiaonuan.
But he is no longer the same person he used to be.
Xia Xiaonuan was quite competitive; if she couldn't win in bed, she had to win verbally. Seeing Zhang Lin's shame and anger, she sat up triumphantly, rummaged through the clothes that had been thrown around, and put them on one by one.
A moment later, she was fully equipped in a cool black leather jacket and pants. She stood up coolly, swept her short hair back, and then took out a huge black helmet and put it on her head.
Dressed entirely in black, her slender yet powerful body was tightly wrapped up. At her joints and vital areas, she had also sewn on golden-crowned eagle skin to add an extra layer of protection. To ensure safety, the specially treated golden-crowned eagle skin was dyed black.
Zhang Lin liked her this way. More than once, he thought about cutting a hole in Xia Xiaonuan's leather pants, and then...
However, they have never succeeded.
Before the apocalypse, her leather outfit wasn't cheap. Zhang Lin didn't earn much money, and being poor, he didn't dare cut it.
After the apocalypse, she refused.
Xia Xiaonuan said that if Zhang Lin could drive all the women in his house away, she would reward him.
Zhang Lin naturally disagreed and could only put the matter aside for now, looking for an opportunity later.
"Let's go."
Xia Xiaonuan took a few steps, but suddenly felt her legs were a little weak. She snorted and then, ignoring her discomfort, she didn't show any weakness until she reached the bottom of the stairs and got on her motorcycle.
Before going downstairs, Zhang Lin checked on Zhang Xiaonian's condition.
She was sitting on the living room sofa, holding a basket of snacks and strutting around. In front of her was a laptop playing a TV show she had downloaded beforehand.
