Chapter 118 The World-weary Man’s Dark Moonlight Girlfriend 21
Ji Nanqing turned and walked away. Shen Xinran could only follow behind him, saying as he walked, "Don't be so stingy. At worst, I'll return the supplies to you when we get to the next city. Now we're in the middle of nowhere. You can't just watch me and the dog starve to death!"
Ji Nanqing's eyes flashed, he stopped and said expressionlessly: "I'm not the kind of man who is willing to raise a child for someone else!"
Shen Xinran was stunned for a moment, and it took her a long time to react. She gritted her teeth in anger. So he was waiting for her here!
Shen Xinran took a deep breath, held Gou Batian in his arms and walked in front of Ji Nanqing, saying in a rhythmic manner: "Look carefully, you bastard, this is your godfather from now on!"
Ji Nanqing raised an eyebrow, "Did you do it?"
Shen Xinran quickly changed his words: "Kiss!"
After Shen Xinran finished speaking, he ordered Gou Batian: "Dog, call daddy!"
And Gou Batian actually barked twice at Ji Nanqing, with a hint of flattery and fawning in his eyes.
After eating and drinking enough, Gou Ba Tiancai discovered that his previous weakness was due to not having enough to eat!
Thinking back to when he actually wanted to escape a week ago, he wanted to slap himself twice. He had a good life to live, but he had to go wandering!
Gou Batian was worried that Ji Nanqing wouldn't give him food, so he jumped directly from Shen Xinran's arms, wagging his tail and spinning in circles.
Ji Nanqing's mouth twitched, he looked at Shen Xinran and asked, "Did you teach me?"
Chen Xinran also felt it was an eyesore and quickly waved his hands, "Ever since it discovered that every time it did this action, Yang Hong would give it food, it fell in love with this action."
Ji Nanqing couldn't understand how a mutant dog could be so shameless. But he still handed the car keys to Shen Xinran and frowned, "Don't feed it all at once."
Shen Xinran took the car keys and immediately burst into laughter. "You bastard, mom is taking you to eat something delicious!"
Ji Nanqing watched helplessly as the man and the dog jumped and ran to the trunk. It was surprisingly beautiful.
As Shen Xinran handed the food to Gou Batian, he didn't forget to teach him, "Now our family owes Aunt Yang Hong and Uncle Qiu Yan three boxes of instant noodles, two boxes of ham sausage, and sixty boxes of self-heating rice. You are already a qualified puppy. You must learn to find supplies on your own and try to pay back what you owe as soon as possible."
It was unclear whether Dog Batian had listened or not, he just ate his sausage while wagging his tail. This made Shen Xinran sigh. Raising a child is not easy, raising a dog is not easy either!
…
Nearly a month after the apocalypse, the city's power system has collapsed, and more and more people are leaving their homes to survive. But wherever they go, they are met with widespread grief.
Ji Nanqing drove forward and saw a middle-aged man kneeling on the ground, holding a child. His skin was tanned by the sun, like a bronze hue polished by time. His clothes were simple and his shoes were badly worn.
Seeing a car passing by, the man kowtowed and cried, "Please give me some food, my child has not eaten for three days."
Shen Xinran glanced at the child in the man's arms. The child was about five years old and lay motionless in the man's arms with his back to them, so his face could not be seen clearly.
Turning to look at Ji Nanqing, he found that Ji Nanqing had no intention of stopping, and even began to speed up, rushing towards the man. Shen Xinran's brows furrowed more and more.
The man saw the car getting closer and closer and jumped to the side, cursing, "Are you blind? Can't you see there's a living person here?"
The child in the man's arms fell out. His eyes were closed and his face was pale. He was obviously dead.
Shen Xinran was stunned. Was this man trying to take advantage of the dead child and seek sympathy?
A woman ran over from the bushes nearby, hugged the child tightly in her arms, her eyes full of tears.
Seeing this, the man, regardless of the gazes of those around him, directly fought with the woman for the child's body, shouting, "Let go! Don't force me to hit you!"
The woman hugged the child tightly and choked up, saying, "I beg you, Xiao Ming has been dead for three days, please let him rest in peace!"
In the rearview mirror, Shen Xinran saw the man punching and kicking the woman, while the woman kept crying while holding the child.
Ji Nanqing glanced at Shen Xinran and smiled faintly, "Do you know how that child died? His father took him to the highway to beg, and he died of heatstroke."
Qiu Yan in the back seat widened his eyes, "So cruel? But how did you know?"
Ji Nanqing said nonchalantly: "I guessed."
Qiu Yan clicked his tongue and shook his head repeatedly.
Only Shen Xinran knew that this was most likely what Ji Nanqing had seen in his previous life.
Ji Nanqing looked at Shen Xinran and said with emotion: "Do you feel it? This is the end of the world, the end of humanity, the cold and ruthless end of the world."
Chen Xinran frowned, "There are good and bad people in every world. You only see the pitiful father who sold his child, but why don't you see the mother who fought for her child?"
Ji Nanqing smiled and stopped talking, but a hint of coldness appeared in his eyes.
About an hour later, Qiu Yan got off the bus to use the restroom, and Yang Hong also got off to get some fresh air.
There were only Ji Nanqing and Shen Xinran in the car. Ji Nanqing looked at Shen Xinran again and said nonchalantly, "Guess what happened to them?"
Shen Xinran frowned, and before she could speak, she heard Ji Nanqing continue: "The man cut the child into pieces and made it into jerky to eat."
After Ji Nanqing finished speaking, he leaned back in his chair.
It's really funny that a man who looks so honest and loyal would actually eat his own flesh and blood.
Ji Nanqing spoke very slowly, which made Shen Xinran feel creepy. But after Ji Nanqing finished speaking, he looked at her and asked mysteriously: "Do you think that woman ate?"
Seeing the sadness in Ji Nanqing's eyes, Shen Xinran knew without thinking that the woman must have eaten it.
She frowned and thought for a long time, then asked, "It's easy for you to live, but what about them?"
Ji Nanqing looked ahead and said nothing.
The next morning, Ji Nanqing was driving, and Shen Xinran sat in the passenger seat with a map in hand.
At a fork in the road, she suddenly realized that Ji Nanqing was going in the wrong direction. She frowned and said, "The capital is this way. You're going the wrong way."
Ji Nanqing looked ahead and said in a steady voice, "We're on the right track. There's a survivor base over here. We've been traveling for so long, we can take a break here first."
Hearing Ji Nanqing say this, Qiu Yan in the back seat burst into laughter. "I've been sleeping outdoors and worried all this time. Finally, I can get a good night's sleep."
Shen Xinran glanced at Ji Nanqing with a hint of suspicion in his eyes. In the original plot, Ji Nanqing and Peng Yiman continued on their way and did not rest at any survivor base.
