Seeing Zhou Lingyu's actions, Xiao Peng became even more irritated and shouted, "What are you doing! If you want to fight, don't blame me for being impolite!"
Zhou Lingyu was furious and shouted, "How dare you be so impolite, you country bumpkin! Look at your filthy behavior, do you think you're someone important? How dare you bully me!" As she cursed, she punched Xiao Peng.
Xiao Peng was furious and didn't hold back. He grabbed Zhou Lingyu's arm and squeezed it hard.
With a deafening scream, everyone around instinctively covered their ears, but the scream could still be heard.
Li Xiao was still silently mourning for Zhou Lingyu in her heart, "Tsk tsk tsk," thinking, "Why did she have to be so foolish as to seek death?"
He looked at the ugly face, which was covered in tears, sweat, snot, and a mixture of saliva, with disdain.
Zhou Lingyu never expected Xiao Peng to lay a hand on her. In all this time, no one in this team had ever laid a hand on a woman.
She had forgotten that the men in the group were all superhumans, and they were not people she could afford to mess with.
She sat on the ground, clutching her wrists, and burst into tears, completely losing her composure.
Seeing the situation, everyone was at a loss for words. He had made a foolish mistake, and no one could stop him.
Xiao Peng ignored her and went back to stirring his own pot. What's more important than his own pot? He was worried the mung bean soup would burn, or it wouldn't taste good.
After all that commotion, not even a pot of soup could fix things. It's funny to think about.
Seeing that the noise was giving her a headache, Li Xiao turned around and went back upstairs. She didn't want to come down for the time being and let Yu Yanbin handle it.
I'll just pretend I didn't see Yu Yanbin's murderous glare, the kind that could conjure ice spikes. You can't reason with an idiot; I wonder how he'll handle this.
However, Li Xiao stopped caring and closed the door. She figured she should calm down and clear her head; the crying was driving her crazy.
After an unknown amount of time, Li Xiao, who had been busy in the space for half a day, withdrew her consciousness from the space.
Tian Tian hasn't come up yet, and we can't hear any other sounds. Okay, you can go down now.
Li Xiao went downstairs, and everything was peaceful; nothing strange happened.
When Tian Tian saw Li Xiao come down, she quickly invited Li Xiao to sit next to her, "Xiao Xiao, come here. Are you hungry? I left some porridge for you to cool down, it's all cold, eat up."
Li Xiao was delighted; hot porridge was really too hot to drink on a hot day. She always preferred to wait until it cooled down before eating it, as it was indeed more comfortable that way.
"Tian Tian, you're such a cutie, thank you so much~ Mwah~" Li Xiao was generous with her praise for Tian Tian, showering her with compliments until Tian Tian was overjoyed and could barely contain her smile.
"Hehe, I know I'm cute." As she said this, she cupped her face in her hands, pretending to be embarrassed, which made everyone present laugh.
Tian Tian is such a joy to behold; look at this moment, everyone is beaming with happiness.
Zhou Lingyu, who was sulking alone upstairs, didn't see it that way.
Hearing the loud laughter and chatter downstairs, she felt a surge of anger welling up inside her.
Downstairs, everything was harmonious; no one seemed to have been affected by what had just happened. They were all enjoying their porridge, feeling incredibly comfortable.
When it's hot, you can't eat dry rice. Isn't porridge the best option?
I don't understand what I'd like to eat if not porridge at this time of year.
Li Xiao slurped down the now-cold porridge with some pickled vegetables, finishing two bowls in no time. It was so comforting.
Patting her full belly, Li Xiao lay comfortably in the chair, feeling exceptionally relaxed. It's always good to eat well; a full stomach makes you feel better.
"Let's go out and ask around tomorrow to see if there are any places nearby suitable for staying. We'll leave early the day after tomorrow."
"Shao Jie, you'll have to work hard tomorrow and run around to see if there's any news we don't know."
Shao Jie nodded and readily agreed.
It was much cooler in the evening, and everyone chatted and laughed in the living room until 9 o'clock before going back to their rooms to rest.
The living room was left to Shao Jie and Xiao Peng, who didn't mind sleeping there at all. The living room was even more spacious, so there was nothing wrong with it.
The other two rooms were reserved for Yu Yanbin, Cheng Shaolin, Meng Yang, and Zheng Yongnian.
Li Xiao had just rested, but couldn't fall asleep right away. One good thing about the apocalypse was that there was no electricity or internet; cell phones, computers, and TVs were all gone, so everyone had to go to bed early.
Early to bed and early to rise has become a daily habit, and no one thinks about having to carry their phone with them at all times.
The apocalypse has made people give up their addiction to their phones and the internet, something no one expected.
Li Xiao closed her eyes and pretended to be asleep. Tian Tian thought she was resting, so she didn't talk to her and went to sleep by herself.
Watching Tian Tian gradually fall asleep, Li Xiao entered the space once again, where there were always things to do every day.
Tidy up the vegetable garden, plant grains, sort out supplies, and stack them neatly.
Making room for supplies that come in later is something Li Xiao does every day.
Seeing the tall pile of grain every day fills her with a great sense of accomplishment.
Looking at the fields planted with vibrant vegetables and rice, Li Xiao was full of energy.
I'll need my own space from now on, and I'll be responsible for my own daily food rations then.
Eating and drinking for so many people every day, that's no small amount. I'd better work hard on the land. ╮(╯▽╰)╭
I was busy until very late before I came out of my online space and saw Tian Tian fast asleep, snoring softly. Li Xiao also fell asleep peacefully.
The next morning, Li Xiao didn't get up early because she had been busy on her social media platform too late the night before and overslept.
When she woke up, Tian Tian was no longer in bed. She quickly got dressed and went downstairs.
Everyone was there except for Shao Jie. When they saw Li Xiao come down, they all greeted her.
"I overslept," Li Xiao said, feeling embarrassed.
Cheng Shaolin pulled her down to sit. "It's okay, you don't need to get up so early. It's fine to sleep a little longer."
"Xiaoxiao, that's right, it's okay to sleep a little longer. I didn't wake you because you were sleeping so soundly."
"Yeah, I didn't fall asleep until very late last night."
"What's wrong, Xiaoxiao? Are you having trouble sleeping?" Tian Tian asked hurriedly.
"No, I took a nap yesterday evening, but I couldn't sleep last night," Li Xiao said, making an excuse without changing her expression.
"oh oh".
Xiao Peng brought Li Xiao the porridge he had cooked and handed her chopsticks.
Li Xiao quickly thanked her, feeling quite embarrassed.
Xiao Peng quickly waved his hand, "Eat up, I saved this for you."
Seeing everyone watching her eat all by herself, she couldn't help but speed up her pace.
Everyone is waiting for Shao Jie to come back and make the final decision.
Li Xiao didn't ask where the others went; it was none of her business.
Shao Jie returned around 9 a.m. As soon as he entered the door, Xiao Peng quickly gave him a towel to wipe his sweat and then gave him water.
Shao Jie only told everyone the news he had found out after he had rested.
...
Finally, we decided to go to a small county town east of Qizhou, which is not far from the road to the north.
That county town used to be quite prosperous, but it's a bit far from where it is now.
Everyone was quick and prepared to set off later to get to their destination as soon as possible and rest there for the night.
