Chapter 211 Sisyphus is a fool



It was still that familiar apartment, in the Ark base.

The electric piano she bought, the empty dining table, the snacks in the corner, and the baseball cap that Ji Mengyao gave her.

The sun shines in and today is a calm and sunny day.

There are no more zombie tides around, and no more oppressive high-level mutated zombies.

Ning Yu's mind was wandering, and she suddenly realized something:

Shen Yiyue, who returned to this moment for the first time, probably felt the same as her.

But now "Sister Ning Yu?"

Seeing Ning Yu standing there in a daze, Shen Qianqian couldn't help but call her again.

Ning Yu looked at Shen Qianqian's cute appearance of covering her belly, and reached out to touch Shen Qianqian's head.

"Be good, dinner will be served soon. I'll go call your sister first."

“Yeah!”

Shen Qianqian cheered.

"Can I have a small cake first?"

Her eyes wandered as she looked at the small cakes she had bought among the snacks.

It has egg yolk filling inside and soft and fluffy brown cake outside. It is sealed in a plastic bag and looks particularly tempting in the morning sun.

"Of course."

Ning Yu knew that Shen Yiyue was quite strict with her sister and usually did not allow her to eat snacks before meals, but today was a special case.

Seeing Shen Qianqian immediately running over to open the cake, Ning Yu smiled, turned and walked towards Shen Yiyue's room.

Her door was still closed, and Ning Yu knew that she had already gotten up.

His hand had already been placed on the door handle, and suddenly he seemed to think of something.

She deliberately paused in front of the door for a while before turning the doorknob.

The quilt in the room was still messy, but Shen Yiyue was already sitting at the desk, writing something quickly with a pen.

"What are you writing?"

Ning Yu stood at the door, leaning lightly against it, and asked Shen Yiyue.

Her heart was actually beating violently at this moment.

In that gray and foggy space, I witnessed every effort Shen Yiyue made, saw her cry, saw her despair, and how much I wanted to hug her immediately.

But when he actually met Shen Yiyue, he suppressed this impulse.

She was afraid that she would scare Shen Yiyue by doing this.

"I'm writing in my diary. Xiaoyu, you are not allowed to peek. This is a girl's secret!"

Shen Yiyue was concentrating on writing, and making jokes with Ning Yu in a relaxed tone.

But it was this tone, this act of pretending that nothing was wrong, that was about to break Ning Yu down.

She couldn't help but walk forward.

Hearing the footsteps, Shen Yiyue wrote faster and faster. Before Ning Yu came to her, she put the cap on the pen and closed the diary.

Pretend to have finished writing:

"Ah, is it time to eat? I've already finished writing!"

"Xiaoyu, you're so close to me, you don't really want to steal."

Shen Yiyue turned around. She knew Ning Yu had walked to her side. As she spoke, she put the diary on the desk.

I was afraid that Ning Yu would notice something about this diary.

But as soon as she saw Ning Yu's expression, Shen Yiyue stopped talking.

Ning Yu clearly had no expression on her face, but her eyes were red, and two lines of tears silently flowed from her eyes down to her cheeks.

Shen Yiyue had never seen Ning Yu cry. She knew that someone as tough and strong as Ning Yu might only think that crying was a sign of weakness.

But the Ning Yu she saw now was actually shedding tears.

Although I couldn't see that she was sad, I was immediately infected by Ning Yu's emotions.

"Xiaoyu you"

Shen Yiyue felt panicked and couldn't think of any reason that would make Ning Yu cry.

Ning Yu looked at Shen Yiyue who was sitting on the chair. There were barely noticeable dark circles under her eyes. She must have been writing that "diary" almost all night.

Really, I just came back and I didn’t even take a moment to rest.

"You're such a fool."

Ning Yu stretched out his hand, hugged her without giving her a chance to refuse, and held her tightly in his arms.

"Huh?"

Until this moment, Shen Yiyue still wanted to play dumb.

"I say, Sisyphus is a fool."

"It's obvious that every time you push the stone to the top of the mountain, it rolls down."

“Still have to push it back again and again.”

"Aren't you tired? Aren't you sad? Aren't you lonely?"

Ning Yu wiped away her tears to prevent them from dripping onto Shen Yiyue's body, but she saw Shen Yiyue's pretty face raised up.

The relaxed expression on her face had completely disappeared, becoming extremely complicated.

Ning Yu freed one hand and picked up a book from the desk. The bookmark was still placed in front of it, so she didn't have time to start reading.

The word "Plague" was written on the cover.

“This should have been Snow Country.”

When Shen Yiyue heard this, she finally realized what had happened, but she was still a little bit unbelieving.

"Do you remember everything?"

She didn't know how Ning Yu had the memory of the previous recall. At this moment, her body began to tremble and her eyes were shaking.

"Yes, all of it. I know everything you've done for me."

Ning Yu lowered her head and looked at her with tearful eyes.

“I, I.”

Shen Yiyue's lips trembled, and she wanted to say something, but all the suppressed emotions blocked her throat and turned into sobs.

All the grievances, all the unwillingness, all the loneliness, and the willpower consumed every time I start over.

She was still holding on, feeling that she was about to collapse in the next second.

Now after hearing Ning Yu's words, it seemed like I finally had a place to let go.

In this instant, everything melted away.

She lay in Ning Yu's arms, crying loudly like a child, her voice very obvious even through Ning Yu's clothes.

"I know why you didn't confess everything to 'me'."

Ning Yu ran her palm along her smooth black hair, gently stroking the back of her head.

"Because. Because"

Shen Yiyue choked up and took the initiative to speak.

"If I told you, Xiaoyu would choose to sacrifice herself every time"

"I don't know what to do."

The hot tears had soaked Ning Yu's new clothes that she had changed into in the morning.

"Okay, okay, I get it, it's my fault, it's my fault"

Ning Yu coaxed Shen Yiyue who was shouting with grievance. How could Ning Yu, who saw all the memory fragments, not know?

Those selves in different parallel lines, without any memories, just made the decisions they would definitely make.

Ning Yu leaned close to Shen Yiyue's ear and spoke softly, "You are no longer alone now."

"I'm right here with you."

"Tell me all your grievances, tell me all your sorrows."

"I won't make that kind of willful decision again."

"Let me roll the stone with you, Sisyphus."

Shen Yiyue blinked her eyes, and suddenly slapped Ning Yu in annoyance, with tears on her face.
