Xu Nian watched the two arguing behind her, a smile on her face. "Yuanbao, do you think these two might be reincarnations of someone?"
"Host, why did you suddenly think that way?" Yuanbao scratched his head. Sure enough, these two people not only looked alike, but they also had the same kind of dog. Whenever they saw it spending too much time with the host, they would come over and take it away, treating it like a thief.
"Two flowers bloom, each telling its own story. They have the same personality, the same hobbies, and even the same dark hearts. If they weren't standing together, people would believe they were the same person." Xu Nian stroked her chin, thinking about how she could end up in a place like the Quick Transmigration Bureau.
Yan Ze and Li Chen might actually be reincarnations of the same person, but it's unclear why they were born as twins.
"Don't overthink it, host. Who cares if he's alone or not? The most important thing is to live in the present." Yuanbao patted Xu Nian's hand.
“You’re right, the present moment is the most important.” Xu Nian readily accepted. Once she returned to the system space, she wouldn’t remember them anymore, so why think about it so much!
"Speaking of which, why haven't I seen the female lead of this world? There are two male leads, so there should be two female leads!" Xu Nian's usual way of thinking was that if there is a male lead, there should be a female lead.
"Host, this is a story with two male protagonists. Their existence is to end the apocalypse. Women will only hinder their speed in killing zombies." How was Xu Nian supposed to respond to Yuanbao's words?
So, the male lead just becomes abnormal when he meets her!
"Niannian, why are you walking so fast? You didn't even wait for us!" Li Chen pretended to be a wronged woman.
"Li Chen, can't you speak properly?" Yan Ze couldn't stand Li Chen making such an expression with a face that looked just like his.
"Niannian, my brother yelled at me, you have to stand up for me!" Li Chen's complaint silenced both of them.
"Li Chen, we haven't even finished killing the zombies yet! Why did you abandon the base and come after us?" Xu Nian changed the subject.
"After my brother killed the zombie king that day, everyone took the opportunity to kill a lot of zombies. The ones that escaped were just scattered zombies. Even without my command, the base could slowly clear out those that slipped through the net," Li Chen explained to Xu Nian. He didn't want Xu Nian to misunderstand that he was irresponsible.
"Niannian, you don't want to kick me out, do you?" Li Chen was on the verge of tears.
"Drama queen," Yan Ze added from the side.
"Brother, can you please stop ruining the atmosphere?" Li Chen said helplessly. With such a big third wheel next to him, he couldn't properly develop his relationship with Nian Nian.
Unfortunately, this little light bulb is oblivious and keeps interrupting.
"No way, it's too much for my eyes." Yan Ze said, indicating that if he couldn't do it, Li Chen shouldn't either.
"You're just jealous." Li Chen still didn't understand what Yan Ze was thinking. He couldn't bring himself to do it, but he wouldn't allow Yan Ze to play the victim and gain Xu Nian's sympathy.
"If you know I'm jealous, then you should tone it down." Yan Ze had already said so much, so Li Chen could only snort coldly and ignore him.
"Niannian, where are we going?" Li Chen had been following them all the way, so he knew that the two had been to many places. Although they had stopped to rest, they had no intention of settling down.
"Let's go somewhere where no one can find us." Xu Nian sighed. So many people saw her feeding Yan Ze the Nine-Turn Rejuvenation Pill that day.
She says it's a family heirloom, but not many people will believe her. She's fine now because she has a high reputation in the base, but what about in the future?
She didn't want to gamble with people's hearts, nor did she want Yan Ze and Li Chen to be in danger because of this pill one day.
"Niannian, let's go to Shennongjia. No one there will be able to find us." Li Chen thought of the complex terrain and peculiar magnetic field of Shennongjia. Without saying more, no one would be able to find them before they died of old age.
"Let's go there then." Xu Nian thought it was a good idea.
Life will be a bit tough from now on, but I can accept it.
...
When they arrived in Shennongjia, the three of them and a pig wandered around for several days before finally choosing a suitable place to stay.
Building houses, cultivating vegetable gardens, planting crops—everything has to start anew here.
Fortunately, the Yuanbao space still had some daily necessities for Xu Nian, so all the necessary items were readily available.
With its beautiful mountains and clear waters, idyllic scenery, a few small houses, and wisps of smoke rising from their chimneys, the warmth of everyday life is most comforting.
"Niannian, I caught a wild rabbit. Should we have it spicy or savory tonight?" Yan Ze asked as he brought the rabbit in from outside.
"It's spicy and goes well with rice," Xu Nian said as she wove the basket.
"Okay, I'll go cook." Yan Ze carried the rabbit into the kitchen.
"Niannian, the potatoes in the field have ripened. I dug some up and brought them back. We'll roast them tonight." Li Chen happily carried back a basket of potatoes.
"Okay, give the potatoes to Yan Ze, he roasts them well." Xu Nian finished weaving the basket, looked it over, and thought it was still ugly.
Indeed, whether something looks beautiful or not depends on talent.
When Li Chen finished delivering the potatoes, he saw Xu Nian staring at Lan Zi with a bitter expression, and couldn't help but chuckle, "Nian Nian's craftsmanship is truly unique."
"Li Chen, how dare you laugh at me?" Xu Nian glared at him. She admitted that she hadn't done well, but he couldn't laugh at her.
"I was wrong, Niannian, how about you punish me by making me your pillow today?" Li Chen said shamelessly.
"Don't you know whether this is a punishment or a reward?" Xu Nian felt as if abacus beads had landed on her face.
"Niannian, don't be so blunt, understand?" Li Chen sighed, what to do with a wife who doesn't understand romance?
"I'm off today, get out." Xu Nian snorted and left with the basket she had just finished weaving.
"Niannian, don't be angry. I was just joking. I misspoke. How about you hit me or scold me to vent your anger?" Li Chen's suggestion was good. If it were a normal person, they would really do that, but the problem is that he is not a normal person.
