Chapter 166: What I Want
Although the coldness of this storm will not freeze people to death, it will definitely make people seriously ill.
It was said that the coat on Ye Li belonged to Xiao Xun. If he hadn't given the coat to Ye Li, how could he be so cold?
"Why don't you come over and cover yourself with me?" Ye Li lifted a corner of his coat.
"This is not a good idea." Xiao Xun pretended to refuse, but his eyes were staring at the corner of the clothes.
"Come here, in this situation, everyone should just make do with each other."
"Okay." Xiao Xun nodded, came closer, curled up his tall body, and stuffed himself into the coat.
The coat seemed to be not enough, so Ye Li held Xixi and squeezed towards Xiao Xun.
"Hmm..." Xixi fell asleep and moved restlessly.
Ye Li immediately patted her and coaxed her to sleep.
Xiao Xun looked down and asked, "Why are you photographing her like this?"
Ye Li said: "I saw other people coaxing their children this way. When she and Xiaomu were little, they cried so hard that the roof could be blown off. Then I learned to coax them this way. After a long time, I got used to it and couldn't change it for a while."
"It must be difficult to raise two children alone." Xiao Xun paused and then asked.
"It's okay." Ye Li adjusted her sitting position. Because she was too close to Xiao Xun, his male hormones swept over her, making her cheeks inexplicably hot.
To hide her embarrassment, Ye Li continued, "It was more difficult to take care of them when they were babies, but now that they're older and both are very sensible, it's become much easier."
Where is the child’s father?
This sentence has been lingering in Xiao Xun's throat. God knows how much he wants to ask Ye Li this question.
But when the words came to his lips, he couldn't say them.
"Let's go to sleep." Ye Li leaned against the wooden wall behind him and said, "I hope that when I wake up tomorrow, all these zombies will be gone."
Ye Li closed his eyes and prepared to sleep.
Xiao Xun looked at her beautiful face, expressionless, but deep down he was filled with regret. He had missed the perfect opportunity to ask her about her impression of him. Was he possessed just now? Why hadn't he dared to ask?
By midnight, the rain had intensified, it was a downpour.
The temperature dropped dramatically, probably only by a few degrees.
Xiao Xun remained alert, half asleep and half awake.
Suddenly, two weights fell towards him and snuggled into his arms. The older one leaned on his shoulder, and the younger one slept sideways, with her head resting on his stomach and her legs on her mother's body.
"Hehe..." Xiao Xun laughed softly, stretched out his long arms, and tenderly embraced Ye Li in his arms, letting her lean on his chest so that she could sleep more comfortably.
In her dream, Ye Li dreamed that she was attending a class in a classroom that was as cold as an ice cave. She was shivering from the cold and could only hold the hot water bottle in her arms to keep warm. She held it tighter and tighter.
When he woke up and found that the hot water bottle he was holding belonged to someone, his face turned red and he quickly left.
When she moved, Xiao Xun woke up, and Xixi, who was sleeping soundly, also woke up.
"It's dawn." Ye Li stuttered.
"Mommy." Xixi rubbed her sleepy eyes and reached out for a hug.
Ye Li immediately hugged her and kissed her little face.
Xiao Xun also got up. He walked to the edge of the tree house and saw that most of the zombies had dispersed, with only a small number still under the tree.
Ye Li put Xixi down and came over to observe the situation. She said, "If the two of us work together, we should be able to break out."
"Are you okay?"
Ye Li stretched his arms and legs, jumped a few times, and then said, "No problem, I'm just very hungry. Let's get started quickly. Maybe we can still make it in time for breakfast."
Xixi also touched her stomach and said, "I'm hungry too."
Ye Li patted his daughter's head and said, "Be good, Xixi. Wait up there."
Xiao Xun broke off two branches, sharpened them with the small knife he carried with him, and then gave one to Ye Li.
"Let's start." Ye Li was eager to move, holding a branch. She observed the zombies under the tree house, wondering which one to start with.
