From the moment they left that city, they embarked on a new journey.
Having experienced so much and gained a preliminary understanding of the apocalypse, my mindset is completely different from what it was at the beginning.
They are more resilient, calmer, and more reserved.
They were initially bewildered, unsure how to face the sudden apocalypse.
After experiencing some hardships and growth, they learned a lot.
Since we can't choose, let's accept it.
No matter what, I will face it positively. I will live a life worthy of being alive.
They were still some distance from the next city, but they weren't in a hurry at all, so they drove slowly and leisurely.
If you come across any supplies that you can keep, go and collect them; otherwise, move on.
Just a few days have passed.
It's already October, but nobody really remembers the exact date.
"Sigh, if we hadn't started talking about it today, I wouldn't even know how many days have passed," Shao Jie said, sounding somewhat dejected.
Li Xiao had also forgotten what day it was. She found it somewhat amusing; back then, everyone had a cell phone, and if you wanted to know the date, you could just look at your phone.
Who remembers dates these days? Cell phones are unusable, and nobody carries one around with them.
There's no calendar or anything, so of course we don't know the dates.
"Fine, if you don't know, you don't know." Yu Yanbin glanced at Shao Jie and continued, "What good does it do to know? We still have to move on."
Shao Jie's eyes dimmed. "Who says it isn't? Love, whether you know it or not, it's all the same. Just live it like this, muddled and confused."
Meng Yang sat next to Shao Jie, using his supernatural abilities to pry open the cars lying haphazardly on the road, making a loud banging sound and kicking up a cloud of dust.
"It's good to take a break," I said. "Before, I could at least look at the sky to estimate the weather, but now the weather changes every day, so there's no way to check it."
Xiao Peng nodded, "Yes, before we could at least tell which season it was, but now there's only one season, so we don't have to think about it anymore."
Then, the group leaned back in their chairs, each with a different expression.
Li Xiao was a little dejected, lacking any enthusiasm for anything. She stared blankly at her fingers as she fidgeted.
Forget it, there's no point in thinking about it so much. Let's do something worthwhile.
She first went into the space to check it out, and then used her supernatural abilities to survey the surroundings.
It seems like her superpowers have upgraded again; Li Xiao hasn't noticed it lately.
The visible area had increased a bit. She didn't have much of a concept of the exact numbers, but she knew that she had reached the circumference.
She's lazy too. As long as the observation range is expanded, what does it matter if it's expanded by one meter or two meters? As long as it works.
Even after finishing everything, Li Xiao still couldn't muster any energy. She still felt very depressed and sullen.
Cheng Shaolin always sat next to Li Xiao, and this day was no exception.
He saw Li Xiao close her eyes and lean back in her chair, so he guessed she might be tidying up something and didn't disturb her. He just quietly watched over her.
What's wrong with me today? I closed my eyes for two hours, and when I opened them again, I wasn't happy at all; instead, I was frowning.
It wasn't like this before. Every time I finished cleaning up, I would at least look relaxed or have a smile on my face.
What happened today?
Something seems different.
Cheng Shaolin didn't know what was wrong with Li Xiao, so he lowered his head, looked into Li Xiao's eyes, and asked her softly, "Xiao Xiao, what's wrong?"
Li Xiao raised her eyelids in annoyance and glanced at Cheng Shaolin, only to see a slightly nervous and handsome face.
She shook her head, not knowing what was wrong with her or how to explain it.
"What's wrong? Can't you tell me?"
Li Xiao lowered her eyelashes, a little irritated. "No, I don't know what's wrong, it's nothing."
Cheng Shaolin stared at Li Xiao for a while, and after confirming that she was just in a bad mood, he didn't ask any more questions.
Then, his mood soured. His face darkened, he closed his eyes, crossed his arms, and ignored everything.
The other people sitting around them looked at the two of them and kept their mouths shut, not saying a word.
The entire car fell silent.
Li Xiao didn't know what was wrong with her, and she didn't want to tell anyone, because she was afraid that her inexplicable bad mood would affect others.
She kept herself in check and tried to calm herself down.
Take a deep breath, take a deep breath—
It doesn't seem to be working.
Li Xiao became even more irritable. What was wrong with her? She couldn't even calm herself down.
Li Xiao was puzzled, wondering what was causing this inexplicable irritability. She couldn't shake off the feeling, no matter what she was thinking or what others had said. She hadn't done anything wrong, so why couldn't she calm down?
She scratched her head in frustration, needing to think of a solution.
Cheng Shaolin frowned as he watched Li Xiao's actions.
Li Xiao is acting very strangely today; she seems restless and anxious, and I don't know why.
He was actually a little anxious, but since Li Xiao didn't say anything, he had no way of knowing.
He sighed, reached out and put his hand on Li Xiao's shoulder, and Li Xiao turned to look at Cheng Shaolin.
Cheng Shaolin ignored her and directly put his arm around Li Xiao's shoulder and pulled her into his arms.
Li Xiao nestled in Cheng Shaolin's arms, staring blankly at Cheng Shaolin's smooth jawline.
Cheng Shaolin found it amusing to see Li Xiao's eyes widen in surprise as she stared at him with wide eyes.
"What's wrong? Are you dumbfounded?"
A deep, resonant voice, as elegant as a violin, rang out above my head.
Li Xiao was startled awake by the familiar and pleasant voice, and her face instantly felt hot.
She knew in her heart that she had definitely become famous.
Thinking about this, I felt a fire burning inside me.
Oh no, my face is definitely going to turn even redder.
The heat on my face intensified.
Feeling embarrassed, Li Xiao tried to get out of Cheng Shaolin's arms.
Cheng Shaolin used force in his arms and hands, and Li Xiao couldn't break free.
Li Xiao heard a low laugh. She looked up and met Cheng Shaolin's handsome smiling face.
His lips curled up in a smile, forming a beautiful arc, indicating that he was in a good mood.
A glint of starlight flashed in his beautiful eyes, and his dark, bright pupils were fixed on her.
Li Xiao felt like she was being sucked in, with a vortex constantly spinning inside, draining away her remaining sanity.
Li Xiao's cheeks flushed, her mind fixed on Cheng Shaolin's face.
Cheng Shaolin openly let Li Xiao see him, completely unconcerned about Li Xiao's blank stare.
In the past, this would have annoyed him and made him angry.
Just by changing the person, the result was different.
The corners of her mouth turned up, the curve widening. As if snapping out of her daze, Li Xiao quickly turned her eyes away and looked elsewhere.
"Not watching anymore?" A teasing voice came from above.
Li Xiao was annoyed, wondering what was wrong with her.
I hadn't figured out why I was inexplicably upset before, but then I found myself staring at a man in a daze.
She doesn't even feel it anymore; she no longer has the mind to think about the uncomfortable feeling she had before.
It also indirectly helped her relax and forget her troubles.
