Bi Qiaoan's day was much smoother than Shen Yanming's, but she still encountered several oddballs.
After she and An'an finished eating, they left the space and headed towards the beach.
An'an stared at the ruins of the city, his mouth agape in astonishment. He asked his mother, "Where are we?"
Bi Qiaoan shook her head, turned on her smart bracelet, stared at her location for a long time, and finally gave up: "I don't know either."
An'an nodded and held her mother's hand tightly.
Bi Qiaoan explained to him, "Let's go to the beach first and see what's going on. It might be a little scary there. If An'an is scared, just close your eyes."
An'an shook her head and said firmly, "Mom, I'm not afraid. I want to protect you!"
Bi Qiaoan patted his head with relief and said nothing more.
Using the light of the rising sun, the two walked quickly. The beach, just like the night before, was densely packed with people. Some were already awake, sitting on the shore, seemingly lost in thought.
Seeing the mother and son approach, he looked on in astonishment: "How did you get here from over there? Wasn't that side flooded?"
Bi Qiaoan said, half-jokingly, "I woke up early and saw this place. Well, I was a little scared, so I hid inside for the night. I didn't dare to come out until dawn."
The man glanced around at the victims, whose fates were unknown, and nodded. He thought to himself that if he woke up in the middle of the night, he would probably wet himself in fear, so he didn't suspect anything.
"So what should we do now?"
Bi Qiaoan looked around and said, "Check if anyone is still alive. If they are, wake them up; if they are dead, burn them. Then go and look for food in the ruins. This is a city; even if we were evacuated before, we couldn't have taken everything. We should be able to find something to eat."
The man nodded, and for some reason, he felt that Bi Qiaoan had a lot of leadership qualities.
He propped himself up on his arms, only to find that his whole body ached.
He gritted his teeth and asked, "How did you leave last night? Aren't you in pain?"
Bi Qiaoan laughed and said, "It hurts, almost like a broken bone, but it'll be fine after a good night's sleep. Your pain now is probably from soaking in seawater for too long."
"Oh, then I'll rub my arms and legs and go call someone. By the way, I'm calling Che Cunzhou, what about you? Is the child's father still there?"
Bi Qiaoan nodded: "We're still here. We're not far apart. We'll be able to meet once the tide recedes. You can call me Qiaoan."
"Oh, that's good." Che Cunzhou said while rubbing his arms, "My family is all gone. When I first woke up, I thought I was the only one alive here. At that moment, I really wanted to die again."
Bi Qiaoan was taken aback: "It's better to live a wretched life than to die. You barely escaped death, how could you have such a dangerous idea?"
Che Cunzhou smiled bitterly: "Everyone else is dead, what's the point of me living? Look at the world we painstakingly built, destroyed in an instant. Humanity is going to revert to primitiveness. How can I, who has enjoyed modern technological civilization, accept this?"
Bi Qiaoan shook her head, not arguing with him. She took a small twig and poked at the unsure of the victim's fate: "Hey, wake up, are you still alive?"
"Hey, why aren't you trying to persuade me anymore?" Che Cunzhou asked anxiously.
Bi Qiaoan rolled her eyes: "You've already come back to life, why are you saying all that? So pretentious! If you're so capable, go jump into the sea and die."
Che Cunzhou flinched, and said somewhat aggrievedly, "No, you're still alive, why should I die!"
Bi Qiaoan: "...What does this have to do with me?"
Che Cunzhou nodded: "As long as someone is alive, I don't want to die." Then he looked Bi Qiaoan up and down and found that she was quite pretty. Although she was holding a child, her figure was better than that of women who had never been married.
Che Cunzhou blushed and tugged at his clothes, saying with a mixture of shyness and coquettishness, "How about we become a couple?"
Bi Qiaoan felt like she was hallucinating, her face full of question marks.
“I said, since your husband’s not around, how about we live together?”
Bi Qiaoan kicked him: "My man is living a good life, don't try anything funny. This is just a warning, otherwise, I'll make you wish you were never born."
Che Cunzhou didn't take it seriously; he just felt the woman was even more charming. Most girls would be crying and sobbing in the face of such a disaster, but she remained remarkably calm.
Oh my, I like it more and more the more I look at it!
Bi Qiaoan felt a chill run down her spine from his blatant gaze and moved away, continuing to poke the people lying on the ground. She could wake eight out of ten, but those who did were very weak and lay motionless on the ground.
Che Cunzhou felt he could move again, so he got up and staggered over to Bi Qiaoan, trying to curry favor: "Beautiful lady, let me do it, you sit down and rest for a while."
Bi Qiaoan: "...Get lost, or I'll get rough with you!"
Che Cunzhou: "It's alright, it's alright, we're all family, no need to be so polite with me. From now on, your son is my son, and I will definitely treat him like my own child."
As An'an watched this big idiot talking more and more outrageously, she couldn't help but punch him in a private part of his body.
Che Cunzhou cried out "Ouch!" and bent over like a shrimp, cursing under his breath: "Kid, don't you have any manners? Don't you know you can't touch a man's private parts? If you hurt me, your mother's happiness for the rest of her life will be ruined!"
An'an didn't understand, but she knew it wasn't a nice thing to say, so she kicked Che Cunzhou repeatedly with her little feet.
Chuangzhou, in pain and enraged, raised his right hand to slap An'an twice. Bi Qiao'an reacted quickly, pulling An'an behind her and then using all the moves she had learned in the guard team on Chuangzhou, causing him excruciating pain, yet she couldn't find any wounds.
After throwing Che Cunzhou to the ground for the Nth time, Bi Qiaoan pulled out a dagger from her waist and pressed it against his carotid artery, saying in a sinister tone, "I've seen blood before. If you don't know what's good for you, don't blame me for being ruthless."
Che Cunzhou was truly terrified this time. Trembling, he said, "No, I wouldn't dare, please spare my life, heroine." Who would have thought that such a delicate and gentle woman could be so violent? He was utterly blind!
Bi Qiaoan noticed a yellowish liquid seeping from someone's crotch, curled her lip in disgust, and put away her knife: "Stay away from me in the future." People who lack self-awareness are really annoying.
"Yes, yes, I won't dare to do it again." Che Cunzhou begged for forgiveness, but in his heart he cursed Bi Qiaoan no less than eighteen times.
Bi Qiaoan ignored the lunatic and continued poking people on the shore. Che Cunzhou watched her retreating figure and thought bitterly, "If I ever get the chance, I'll definitely tie her up and ravage her to avenge today's humiliation."
Bi Qiaoan was unaware that she was being held against. She felt a chill run down her spine and shivered violently. Turning to look at Che Cunzhou, she saw him giving her a fawning smile.
Bi Qiaoan curled her lip in disdain and walked away. At the same time, she understood why Shen Yanming was so worried.
In this chaotic world, it's really hard for girls to protect themselves if they don't have some skills.
