With the male protagonist sitting next to him, Ruan Ning was much quieter in the following time. He didn't say anything, just kept propping up his chin and listening to them discussing which way was less crowded and which way was more supplies. In addition to the road traffic before the end of the world, we also have to consider the situation after the end of the world.

Ruan Ning was just an observer, and had never thought of offering any suggestions. The original owner was a native of S City, and had rarely left this place in his memory. Even if he occasionally went on a long trip, he usually took a train, high-speed train, or airplane. He didn't need to remember what highways were around S City, where there were gas stations, or how to get to B City in the nearby province faster.

Ruan Ning himself did spend time researching this when he was in the apartment. At that time, he wanted to find a good place to settle down in the end times.

In the city of B in Lin Province, Ruan Ning also classified it as one of the alternative destinations.

The main reason was that City B was not far from City S. Both cities were located at the edge of the province, and were only about two or three miles from the apartment to the safe zone. Ruan Ning was alone at the time, so even if she had to choose a place to go, she would have to start from a nearby place, the closer the better, otherwise she might become a zombie before she even got there.

Moreover, City B is indeed a good place after the apocalypse. A No. 3 base will be built there, and its comprehensive strength is always ranked among the top in China's major bases.

This is due to the fact that there were not many people in this city before the apocalypse, and the city's luck was good, so the rate of zombie evolution was still within the normal range. Unlike the S city in the previous life, where mutant zombies were rampant and the speed of decline was too fast, there were only a few survivors left in the entire city before the base was built.

Later, after the news that S City was occupied by advanced mutant zombies spread, no one dared to build any safe bases around S City. Every survivor wanted to stay away from S City, and even if they had to pass by, they would rather take a detour and pass by the side to avoid losing their lives accidentally.

Ruan Ning was concerned about Li, and Gu Yicheng could no longer remember the specific route they took to City B.

However, she believed that the reborn hero must know more than an outsider like her. So instead of worrying so much here, she might as well just follow the team.

Anyway, the apocalypse has broken out, and there are zombies everywhere, it's just a matter of how many there are. Following the male protagonist, with the protagonist's halo protecting them, it will definitely be safer than if they acted alone.

**

After the meeting, Gu Yicheng did not go back.

Ruan Ning thought she would be able to get rid of the male protagonist during dinner and rest. However, when she heard the male protagonist say that he planned to stay here tonight, she almost lost her balance and fell off the sofa.

"Brother, are you really going to stay here tonight?" Ruan Ning asked timidly, suddenly having a bad feeling in her heart.

When she asked him this, Gu Yicheng remained calm and said calmly, "I have something else to discuss with Captain Xue later, so it's more convenient for me to stay here tonight."

"..."Well, Ruan Ning, who had been suffering from mental torture since this afternoon, has passed away.

Seeing that Brother Gu was going to stay tonight, Lin Yang thought about letting Chaozi go back alone, and he and Brother Gu stayed together so that they could see the little beauty for a while longer.

However, Lin Yang had just begun to express his thoughts when he was refuted by Brother Gu with a casual remark.

Lin Yang could only leave reluctantly.

Ruan Ning ate dinner absentmindedly and had no appetite. He put down his chopsticks after eating less than half of his usual amount.

Gu Yicheng, who was standing by, could not help but frown when he saw that the girl had hardly eaten anything. No wonder when he held this person a few days ago, she was so light that he could lift her with one hand... How could she be so heavy if she only ate so little every day?

"Eat more. Once we leave the safe zone, there will be no food like this." He said.

"Brother, I can't eat anymore." Ruan Ning looked at the people around him with his almond-shaped eyes.

She knew this was the truth, but she really couldn't eat anymore today. Why did she still have to be forced to eat...

Gu Yicheng stared at her eyes that contained hints of grievance for a few seconds and fell silent.

Did he really go too far today? But he obviously didn't do anything, he just felt like it and couldn't help but tease her.

How could this person be so frightened? She even refused to accept the crystal core he gave her.

Gu Yicheng didn't know why, but he suddenly thought of the first time he met Ruan Ning. It seemed like it was several years ago, but that time was different from this time. He deliberately teased her that time, and then until the outbreak of the apocalypse, he could see this person hiding behind the old man in the few times he went home, looking at him timidly, with a look of fear but not daring to leave.

At that time, Gu Yicheng didn't feel anything about it.

However, does this person have to hide from him for so long this time?

Gu Yicheng suddenly felt irritated, as if the violent temper in his body was coming out again.

Ruan Ning secretly breathed a sigh of relief when she saw the male protagonist shift his gaze away and no longer pay attention to her.

But today is not over yet. Because they are "brother and sister", Xue Chen arranged the male protagonist to stay on the second floor, in the room next to Ruan Ning.

Ruan Ning's last bit of hope was also shattered. She now wanted to find a corner to be alone. This arrangement was simply too inhumane! It was understandable to arrange it on the second floor, but there were clearly four rooms on the second floor. Why did they choose the one closest to her?

However, since it was already a fact, Ruan Ning had no way to change it, so she could only slip back to her room as soon as she had time.

As long as the male protagonist can't see her, nothing will happen, right? As for whether he will find someone else... it's better to die with a friend than to die with a poor one. It would be even better if someone could help her share the pressure.

Ruan Ning was lying on the bed, eating an apple from the supermarket while playing on his mobile phone, which could only play single-player games. When he finished the tenth level of the single-player game, he finally felt less depressed.

Before the power outage in City S, Ruan Ning had already charged all the electronic devices in the apartment, including the power bank, which should be enough for her to use for a while. However, Ruan Ning was afraid that she would become addicted to playing games and would not be able to play games in the future, so she put her phone in a space and never took it out.

Now it can be used to help her relieve her mood.

"Knock, knock, knock." When Ruan Ning was about to finish this round of the game, there was a rhythmic knock on the door.

When Ruan Ning heard the knock on the door, his eyebrows jumped. He had lost the game. It was obvious who was at the door.

So does she open the door or not?

Ruan Ning stared at the door for a long time before turning off the game, putting his phone away, and reluctantly walked to the door and opened it.

If she really dared to leave the male protagonist out in the cold, she might be dissatisfied that her current life is too comfortable.

"Brother?" Ruan Ning looked at Gu Yichen who was standing at her door and pretended to be surprised.

The places where the superpowers live have an extra hour of electricity supply every night, but the rest of the time they still rely mainly on candles for lighting. However, now that supplies are insufficient, even candles have become a luxury. More people in the safe zone can only rely on the full moon hanging in the sky for lighting at night.

The one-hour supply period has not yet arrived, the power in the villa has not been cut off, and there is still a light on in the corridor.

So Ruan Ning's gaze shifted downward, and she easily saw the food box in the male protagonist's hand.

Now the fake shock turned into real surprise.

This taste is...

Gu Yicheng's eyes were deep, and it was hard to tell what he was feeling in his dark eyes, but his tone was a little softer, "I saw that you didn't eat much in the afternoon, Ningning, and I was worried that you would be hungry in the evening, so I cooked some seafood porridge."

In fact, when Ruan Ning smelled the food in the corridor, her heart was attracted by the thing in the male protagonist's hand. Because the smell was so fragrant! It reminded her of her favorite restaurant before she traveled through time.

However, after being briefly attracted by the food, Ruan Ning fell into another kind of panic.

First the crystal core, then the food... She could understand the crystal core, after all, the hero scared her later. What about this seafood porridge? And it looked like the hero made it himself.

Could it be that the male protagonist is still planning some bad ideas in his mind?

Ruan Ning thought of this possibility, swallowed his saliva, and couldn't help but stutter when he spoke, "I, I'm not hungry."

Hearing that Ruan Ning had rejected his things again, Gu Yicheng frowned and his aura was exposed, making him look a little fierce.

When Ruan Ning saw the male protagonist's expression, she suddenly felt the urge to survive. She immediately reached out to take the food box from his hand and said hastily, "But as long as it's made by my brother, I will definitely eat it all!"

Gu Yicheng stared at her twinkling eyes, narrowed them, and said in a deep voice: "Then I will watch you finish eating before leaving."

"..." Ruan Ning was indeed planning to trick the male protagonist away first, and then put the porridge into another container and put it into the space.

This way, we won't waste food and we can also explain to the male protagonist.

I didn't expect that the hero would have the time to watch her finish drinking it... If Ruan Ning didn't know that Gu Yicheng was not that boring, she would have started to wonder if there was some laxative in the porridge.

Ruan Ning clenched the handle of the lunch box tightly, tears streaming down her face. "Then I'll drink it now."

"Yeah." Gu Yicheng was satisfied.
