Mark, deeply agreeing, said, "Hena, don't say you're shocked. We were stunned too. At first, we thought the Commander was trying to bite her to death. But we gradually felt relieved when we saw that the Commander was really with Captain Xia. At that time, he was still in his Black Panther form, and everyone was worried that he wouldn't be able to recover. Captain Xia was still with him. What else could this be but true love? Whether it's love at first sight or something else, men's eyes don't lie."
Haina recalled the occasional glimpse she'd seen Lu Yan gazing intently at Xia Yixin—a tender, almost nauseatingly affectionate look.
The last bit of worry in her heart disappeared.
Perhaps the reason she cares so much is because she is unwilling to accept that after five years of giving and hinting, he remained unmoved, while he fell in love with another woman at first sight.
Fortunately, Haina's mood changed quickly, and she officially started calling Fred (Lu Yan) Lu Yan.
The next day, she approached Xia Yixin alone and asked to see the ship and repair it, as well as to take enough virus vaccines overseas.
However, if she wants to take so many virus vaccines with her, it will naturally involve Lu Yan, the commander of the Ark, having to go to sea with the fleet, which could take anywhere from three months to several years.
After all, Lu Yan is still the male protagonist of the savior world of Country A, and his main storyline still needs to be completed.
This realization made Xia Yixin, who had just returned to the honeymoon phase, a little depressed. Fortunately, the ship couldn't be repaired in a day or two, especially since it was currently in the Ice Age, and it would take at least another six months.
In the blink of an eye, December passed, and the residents of Dawn Base celebrated New Year's Day with their families.
Another month passed, and as deep winter approached, a joyous event occurred.
After waking up, Chen Qian made rapid progress after learning that his parents had recovered and that Hong Feng had accepted him. When Xia Yixin received the marriage application that Hong Feng handed over with a blushing face, she didn't react for a long time.
"Hongfeng, aren't you moving a little too fast? Have you thought this through?" She was worried that Hongfeng's decision was impulsive.
To everyone's surprise, Hongfeng blushed and shook her head firmly, "I've thought it through, Captain Xia."
Xia Yixin didn't want to break up the couple, so she directly approved their marriage application and even notified Chen Zhe in advance, which naturally surprised and delighted him.
Later that night, Lu Yan sneaked in through the window again, bringing explosive news: the reason Hong Feng was so decisive in getting married was because—she was pregnant.
"Chen Qian is really fast, but why do I feel an itch to punch him?" Xia Yixin ground her teeth, feeling frustrated that Hong Feng had been completely fooled by Chen Qian.
Lu Yan chuckled, his large hand enveloping her small one. "I'll beat him up with you. But..." He leaned closer, continuing, "Shouldn't we step up our efforts, hmm?"
"What's going on in your heads, men?" Xia Yixin pushed away his head as he leaned in, only to be pulled into his arms instead.
Lu Yan kissed her and asked seriously, "Madam, shouldn't we officially register our marriage and hold a wedding? We can't keep letting me work without a license, can we?"
She was amused by him and hugged him back, saying, "Okay."
Late January.
Hongfeng and Chen Qian held a lively wedding banquet and received a legally binding marriage certificate from the Morning Light Base. Before that, Xia Yixin and Lu Yan had, of course, taken turns testing Chen Qian under the guise of "testing" him, with the main point being to make him understand the meaning of "Your family has connections, so be careful."
Although Chen Qian was beaten black and blue, he still got completely drunk that night, clinging to Hong Feng like a sticky candy.
Xia Yixin also received a system notification: "Male supporting character Chen Zhe's happiness level is 80%, exceeding the task target." Her total score is now over 16,000 points.
On their wedding day, Xia Yixin and Lu Yan also joined in the fun and held their own wedding.
Originally, Xia's parents wanted to have a more grand celebration, but Xia Yixin refused, saying that "the base is still in the early stages of construction and there is no need for extravagance." However, that night, they somehow found firecrackers and set off a full ten sets of firecrackers, symbolizing that their marriage would be perfect.
After learning of their marriage, Chen Zhe sent his blessings, and Xia Yixin felt that he would let go of his obsession as time went by.
After the marriage, Lu Yan openly took Xia Yixin back to their marital home, a two-story villa next to the campus, not far from where Xia's parents originally lived.
Married life is far from being all about being inseparable.
During the daytime, Xia Yixin is usually busy with the internal affairs management of the Dawn Base and the packing and research of the virus vaccine. Lu Yan, in addition to managing the training of the superpowered squad, also takes on the part of looking after the ship's repair work. But no matter how busy they are, the two always meet on time before dark. They either cook at the villa, or go to Xia's parents' house for a meal, or occasionally go to the canteen when they are lazy.
They lived a peaceful and comfortable life.
However, Xia Yixin still remembered the machine chip. After sending it to computer professionals, they quickly began research. This complete machine chip was much more valuable for research than the previous one, but unfortunately, it would take some time to fully decipher it.
Three months later, the persistent blizzard finally subsided, and the entire continent ushered in a brief spring. The first batch of goods from Dawn Base was also successfully delivered to the seven major bases in batches.
Xia Yixin originally wanted to take this opportunity to go south to find the "parallel dimension gate" that those people were talking about, but plans change quickly.
No sooner had the virus vaccine been delivered than people from more than a hundred other bases across the continent arrived at the Dawn Base within half a month, bringing supplies. Some bases didn't even have any supplies and could only make empty promises, but every base representative was filled with excitement.
The emergence of a virus vaccine is tantamount to having a way to end this apocalypse!
All the bases, big and small, were afraid of falling behind, so they rushed to Dawn and signed an alliance agreement with them. At its peak, more than twenty bases arrived at the same time in a single day.
Therefore, in order to ensure the stability of the Dawn Base, Xia Yixin had to temporarily slow down her travel plans. However, due to the arrival of people at various bases, Xia Yixin also learned about the situation in the south.
Before the apocalypse, the population in the south was relatively concentrated, so the situation was more severe than in the north after the outbreak of the zombie virus. As a result, there were almost no large bases. After hearing the news of the "virus vaccine," 90% of the bases sent representatives. Xia Yixin had contacted them and did not find anything wrong. After looking around, she was surprised to find no representative of the F base, the "Southern Mary Sue male protagonist plane" that the dimensional detector had initially detected.
