Fang Yunyun was completely dazed after being pulled away. Seeing Banxia calmly selecting meat, she couldn't help but step forward and ask in a low voice, "Banxia, were you... scared just now?"
She truly never expected that Banxia, a girl who had been gentle and timid since childhood, would actually hurt someone.
Banxia held up two pieces of beef for comparison: "I'm not afraid."
She thought for a moment and reminded her, "This world will never lack ambitious people. The dangers you will face in the future are likely to be much greater than you imagine. Sister Yunyun, you, Brother Yao, and Sister Xiaoxiao would better harden your hearts in the future."
That was all she had to say.
Although the extreme cold has lasted for a month, with the national machinery in place, things are generally peaceful, and ordinary people retain their basic conscience.
In the future, when the living environment becomes even worse, it will be common for people to exchange their own children to eat. If you are afraid of even killing people, it is absolutely impossible for you to survive!
Fang Yunyun listened thoughtfully and said, "You're right. This is no longer a peaceful era. If you're soft-hearted, you'll get yourself killed, and even implicate your family."
Then she looked at Banxia teasingly, "No wonder Nanxing loves you so much. If I were a man, I would also like a girl like you who is always clear-headed."
"Don't think about it anymore, Sister Fang!" Nanxing returned at some point, putting an arm around Banxia's shoulder. "My wife only loves me!"
Su Yao, who was following behind, rolled his eyes: "Stop showing off your love, I have a wife too!"
He and Fang Yunyun were never favored, but in fact, Nanxing and Banxia were not favored either.
Nanxing has been famous since childhood, and she has no shortage of beauty and money. She has many admirers, including lively and cute, gentle and kind, sexy and charming, arrogant and interesting, rich and powerful, and so on.
Banxia is just an ordinary girl. She is pretty, but not as sophisticated as a female celebrity. She is gentle and innocent, but lacks a bit of fun. She is also an orphan. Let alone being a match for someone as radiant as Nanxing, even an ordinary family would find her difficult to be compatible with.
The general public felt that Nanxing was just used to having someone around and would eventually get tired of it.
It wasn't until Nanxing relentlessly sent all the rumor-mongers to prison, until Nanxing canceled all her work to personally take care of Banxia when she fell ill, and until Nanxing resolutely chose to retire from the entertainment industry, that they realized Nanxing wasn't just used to having that person by her side, but had always deeply loved that person.
Su Yao remembered asking Nan Xing a question: if he and another girl grew up together as childhood sweethearts, would he still fall in love with his childhood sweetheart?
Nanxing said that he liked Banxia as a person, not her status as a childhood friend or her companionship.
Su Yao said: True lovers are so adorable, it's no wonder he and his whole family became CP fans!
Nanxing had no idea that Su Yao had thought so much in such a short time. He took the full shopping cart from Banxia and handed it back to her, leaving his empty cart: "Wife, you push this one. Is there anything else you want to buy?"
Banxia checked the list: "Gas cylinders, coal, and water."
"We can get the rest tomorrow, the car's too full." Nanxing casually picked up a bag of frozen shrimp and put it in the shopping cart. "Shall we go upstairs to buy clothes later?"
Now all food is rationed, and you can't even buy an extra bag of spicy strips. If they use all the money they have left to buy basic survival supplies like water and food, they won't even have enough!
Su Yao grabbed a bag of shrimp: "Yunyun and I are going too!"
He and Fang Yunyun had more money in their cards than they could spend, so they planned to spend it all while they still had it, even if it was all useless luxury goods, it was better than letting it become a pile of waste paper!
Banxia whispered to Nanxing about her encounter with Sun Huihui.
Nanxing's expression didn't change at all after hearing this. Instead, he said, "My wife is great. But next time, if you're not in a hurry, you can save it for your husband!"
Banxia's face, hidden under her winter scarf, was slightly flushed. She gave him a soft, glaring look. She rarely called Nanxing "husband" because she felt inexplicably embarrassed.
Before getting married, Nanxing was too embarrassed to call her "wife," but after getting the marriage certificate, he called her "wife" every day. Sometimes he would even tease her by calling him "husband." Now, he calls himself "your husband" because he has a perverse sense of humor and wants to see her blush.
Nanxing freed one hand to put it around her shoulder, leaned close to her ear and chuckled softly, "My wife is so good, she doesn't even know how to glare at people."
"Hey," Su Yao suddenly exclaimed, "this thing is now limited to five boxes per customer?"
Banxia and Nanxing looked up and saw a row of familiar little boxes with familiar words: ultra-thin, spiral, long-lasting... Last month, it was stipulated that each person could only purchase one box per month, with 15 pieces in one box.
She wanted to bury her head in the ground. How did they end up here?
Nanxing couldn't help but chuckle at his wife's self-deceptive actions: "Maybe it won't last long?"
With no power, water, or gas, and nothing to do after a good meal, the most primitive form of exercise naturally comes to mind...
There should be a lot of newborns at the end of this year, but it's a pity that many of them will survive.
Nanxing and Suyao generously took ten boxes for the couple and put them in the shopping cart. They also casually grabbed two boxes of contraceptive pills from the shelf next to them, which were subject to purchase limits.
Although I don't know why even medicine is sold in supermarkets, I'll buy it if it's available, and I don't care why!
Su Yao casually asked Nan Xing, "When are you two planning to have a child?"
Nanxing took Banxia's hand and answered casually, "I had my tubal ligation done."
Su Yao and Fang Yunyun were shocked. They remembered that Nan Xing really wanted to be a father, so how could this be...?
The two then recalled how thin and bony Banxia had become when she first woke up, and they vaguely understood what had happened.
Su Yao awkwardly tried to comfort him, saying, "We don't know when this disaster will end, so it's better not to have children."
He had actually considered getting a tubal ligation, but Fang Yunyun disagreed, and he couldn't get an appointment with a doctor, so he had no choice but to give up.
After paying, the group pushed their shopping carts to the parking lot to put their things away when a dark figure suddenly rushed out and blocked Nanxing and his friends' path: "Nanxing! Your wife scratched me, pay up now! Otherwise, I'll expose her true colors online. You don't want her to be cyberbullied and jump off a building again, do you?!"
Banxia and Fang Yunyun recognized the person as Sun Huihui at a glance, and Fang Yunyun looked at Banxia with some worry.
Banxia shook her head at her. She had seen cannibalism countless times, so what was a little bit of trouble online?
Nanxing hates cyberbullies and rumor-mongers more than anything. Hearing this, she coldly threatened, "In this cold weather, it's not surprising that one or two people freeze to death, is it?"
Sun Huihui was taken aback by his words and immediately became somewhat timid despite her fierce demeanor: "You! I... I left the evidence with my friend. If I don't go back today, the news of your murder will spread all over the world tomorrow!"
She took a few steps back and ran quickly out of the parking lot, cursing as she ran, "Pah, hypocrite! Scumbag! I must have been blind to like you!"
Banxia and the others: ...
Making friends out of thin air?
Furthermore, what if we didn't know that your confession was just an attempt to ride the wave of popularity?
Your tactic of sowing discord is really not very clever!
