Seeing Liu Anran's frustrated expression, Chu Yunxiao's mood instantly improved, and he kindly said, "Liu Anran, I've already smashed up your house and destroyed the scene, so you don't have to worry about anyone discovering anything."
Liu Anran rolled her eyes and retorted, "Should I thank you?"
"No need to thank me, you're the mother of my child, it's only right," Chu Yunxiao said matter-of-factly.
Liu Anran chuckled dryly twice, then ignored Chu Yunxiao and turned to look out the window, her face darkening.
The city, once ablaze with lights, is now shrouded in darkness, with only a faint moonlight casting shadows on the earth, creating a bizarre and surreal scene.
There wasn't a single living person in the streets, no laughter, no car horns, no loud, passionate music; the entire city was eerily quiet.
Zombies roamed the streets, foraging for food. Cars passing by startled them, causing them to stop and look in their direction, emitting "hoho" roars. Zombies blocking the middle of the street were knocked down and run over by Chu Yunxiao without changing his expression, still making "hoho" sounds.
Liu Anran sighed helplessly. How did she end up in this zombie-infested world after waking up, transmigrated into the body of a female supporting character who was destined to die young? Was God letting her continue her life as a female supporting character, or was it to save Yunlong?
If the female supporting character hadn't died, could she have returned to real life and continued her life?
Thinking of this, Liu Anran sighed, "Chu Tianxiao, why didn't you come to find me and the child sooner?"
If Chu Yunxiao had come to find the original owner and Yunlong earlier, the original owner wouldn't have died. Even if Chu Yunxiao hadn't married her, he would have ensured she had enough to eat and wear.
"Why don't you come to me?" Chu Yunxiao asked in return.
“You are so outstanding, like the bright moon in the sky, while I am like dust in the air. I am not good enough for you.” Liu Anran revealed the original owner’s bitterness.
Chu Yunxiao never imagined that he was so unattainable in Liu Anran's eyes, and sighed, "Liu Anran, just how insecure are you?"
Liu Anran said bitterly, "Yunlong is my only family in this world. I'm afraid you'll take Yunlong away from me."
“You are Yunlong’s mother. Even if I take Yunlong away, I will ensure that you can see him often and that you will never have to worry about food or clothing.”
Chu Yunxiao was not a heartless person. Even if he would not be with Liu Anran, he would not force Liu Anran to stay away from Yunlong.
"Chu Yunxiao, I used to want to make a name for myself, but now I'm just raising Yunlong. However, I'm not capable enough right now, so Yunlong and I will have to rely on you from now on," Liu Anran said.
Upon hearing Liu Anran's words, a faint hint of anger appeared on Chu Yunxiao's face.
"Liu Anran, is it that once you have the ability and a powerful backer, you'll take Yunlong and leave, and then discard me when you no longer need me? You say I'm heartless, but you're actually more heartless than me."
Liu Anran immediately said tactfully, "How could that be? Am I that kind of person? Your biggest support in the world is you. I'm just worried that you'll meet your destined woman and find me an eyesore, so you'll kick me and Yunlong out. As long as you don't kick me out, I'll stay by your side for the rest of my life."
When the male lead met the female lead, it was like a thunderbolt striking the earth, like two magnets attracting each other. She dared not even think about the male lead, but as long as Chu Yunxiao treated her and Yunlong well, she could follow Chu Yunxiao like a subordinate and friend. After all, it's good to have a powerful backer.
Upon hearing Liu Anran's words, Chu Yunxiao's anger vanished, and he said irritably, "You're overthinking it!"
Liu Anran took out a peach from her spatial storage, wiped it clean, and offered it to Chu Yunxiao's lips in a flattering manner, "Want some peach?"
Chu Yunxiao glanced at the peach in Liu Anran's hand. It was very fresh and looked like it had just been picked. He was shocked. He knew that Liu Anran had a spatial ability and was curious about where she picked the peach. But he was still surprised to see Liu Anran conjure peaches out of thin air.
Without revealing his feelings, Chu Yunxiao took a bite of the peach from Liu Anran's hand, chewed it, his eyes lit up, and after a few chews, he swallowed it. He then took another bite, chewed it thoroughly, and swallowed it before asking, "Weren't you very wary of me? Why are you bringing it up with me now?"
Liu Anran said bluntly, "You're so smart, you'd have figured it out sooner or later even if I didn't tell you. Besides, I'm an orphan, and besides Yunlong, you're the second person I can trust in this world. Moreover, my space is something I was born with. When I die, my space will be reincarnated with me, and no one can take it away."
"How big is your space? Can you grow plants there?" Chu Yunxiao asked curiously.
Liu Anran said, half-jokingly, "The space is about the size of a football field, with an apple tree, a peach tree, and a red fruit tree, but people can't go in, so it's impossible to grow anything there."
At this point, Liu Anran feigned regret and said, "If I could enter my space, I could take Yunlong inside and wait until the apocalypse is over before coming out again."
Chu Yunxiao couldn't help but chuckle and said, "You should be content! If you're any greedier, you'll be struck by lightning."
"If anyone's going to be attacked, it'll be you. Why should you get all the advantages because you have a good family background, good looks, and strong abilities?" Liu Anran retorted.
Chu Yunxiao smiled and said softly, "I'm not as outstanding as you say."
Liu Anran knew that Chu Yunxiao was being modest, so she didn't continue the topic with him. Instead, she looked at Chu Yunxiao's profile, his straight nose, and his beautiful lips, as if they had been sculpted by a master craftsman. She sighed, "Yunlong looks so much like you. I'll be so happy if he grows up to be as outstanding as you."
“Yunlong is already very brave and sensible. He will definitely grow up to be outstanding,” Chu Yunxiao said.
Thinking of Yunlong's fate, Liu Anran's good mood vanished instantly. She ignored Chu Yunxiao and instead munched on the peach in her hand.
Chu Yunxiao hesitated whether to remind Liu Anran. He had already taken two bites of the peach. After he finished his hesitation, he turned to look at Liu Anran and saw that she had almost finished eating the peach. So he decided not to say anything.
Chu Yunxiao searched all over the city for Liu Anran. Knowing where the seed shop was, he found it easily, parked the car, and said to Liu Anran, "There's a seed shop here."
Liu Anran quickly finished eating the peach, put the pit into her spatial storage, and the two got out of the car and walked to a shop. The shop was open, and Liu Anran took out a flashlight and shone it into the shop. The inside was a mess, with seeds scattered all over the floor.
A "whoosh" sound rang out, and Liu Anran hurriedly looked in the direction of the sound. She saw zombies walking towards them. Chu Yunxiao raised his hand and several ping-pong ball-sized lightning balls smashed into the heads of the approaching zombies. The zombies fell to the ground and died instantly.
Liu Anran stared in disbelief. "Wow! No wonder he's the male lead, he's amazing."
Seeing Liu Anran's stunned expression, Chu Yunxiao couldn't help but pull her hand and walk towards the seed shop. This woman was so infatuated that she didn't even look where she was going; it was really worrying.
Liu Anran gave Chu Yunxiao a thumbs up and praised, "Awesome!"
"Put away your infatuation and get down to business," Chu Yunxiao said.
Liu Anran looked at Chu Yunxiao, completely bewildered. She wasn't infatuated at all; she admired him!
Chu Yunxiao couldn't help but ruffle Liu Anran's hair. "So silly!"
"I'm not stupid, you're just too smart," Liu Anran said defiantly.
Chu Yunxiao smiled and urged, "Yes, I was too smart. Now hurry up and see what kind of seeds you need, and put them away quickly. The zombies will hear the sound and soon gather around us."
