Chapter 17 Her Parents



Chapter 17 Her Parents

All the people in the city had evacuated, and if there were no alien or mutant animals visiting the villa area, the whole night would be eerily quiet.

Although we were sleeping in the bed, no one actually slept all night.

Except Chu Xihen.

With Lou Su by his side, Chu Xihen could sleep peacefully.

He was woken up by the heat in the morning, and when he opened his eyes, his forehead was covered with sweat.

"Let me go, aren't you hot?" Chu Xihen pushed Lou Suo who was still hugging him tightly.

Lou Su let him go only after he saw that he had woken up.

Of course he was hot, but he knew that Chu Xihen was too picky about where he slept, and would suffer from insomnia if he slept in the wrong posture. Wasn't he afraid of waking him up after letting go?

Chu Xichen got out of bed and took a look at the window. He wanted to open the window, but when he reached out and touched the window frame, he cried out in pain because of the burn.

"What's wrong?" Lou Su walked over and took his hand to look at it, and saw a glaring red mark on the palm of his white hand.

"I'm fine. There's something wrong with the sun outside. The window frames are all burned." Chu Xihen took out his phone and took a look. "It's only six o'clock in the morning? I thought it was noon."

Lou Su noticed that the sun rose a little early today when Chu Xihen was still asleep, but he didn't expect it to be so serious.

The two looked at each other, opened the door and left the room.

Gao Lin sat on the sofa, took off his coat and put on a white vest.

Zhou Quan almost crawled into the refrigerator.

Anyway, there is no need to pay electricity bills in the end times, so shouldn’t he enjoy it while there is still electricity?

"Are you awake? How did you manage to sleep in such a hot weather? I was too hot to bear it in the middle of the night." Zhou Quan pulled his head out of the refrigerator and asked Chu Xihen, "Brother, is this also a phenomenon of the end of the world?"

"It's only a few months now? Have you ever encountered such high temperatures before?" Chu Xihen didn't say anything. It was Gao Lin who asked with a frown.

Then he said, "All the abnormal phenomena now are because the end of the world has come. Don't ask such stupid questions in the future."

"Why are you so angry? I told you to go to the refrigerator to cool down but you refused." Zhou Quan was very tolerant of Gao Lin, and no matter what the other party said, it would not make him angry.

When Zhou Quan was showing off, there was a sudden "click" and the refrigerator ran out of power.

"Huh? What happened? Did the refrigerator burn out?" He closed the refrigerator door and turned on the switch in the living room, then said in despair: "The power finally went out. The end of the world has fixed this bug."

The power outage happened several days after the end of the world, it really seems like a BUG.

"It's too stuffy in this room. Let's get going quickly, shall we?" Zhou Quan took out some ice cubes from the refrigerator and gave a few to Gao Lin, Chu Xihen and the others.

"Okay, let's pack up and go." Lou Su did not object to the suggestion.

Zhou Quan didn't have much to pack, so he just went to the master bedroom door and knocked, "Su Yan, are you awake? We're ready to leave."

With the temperature so high, Zhou Quan didn't believe that Su Yan was still sleeping.

Sure enough, the next moment the door was opened. Su Yan was probably surprised to see Zhou Quan at the door.

A trace of panic flashed across her face, and then she opened the door just a crack and squeezed her small body out from the crack, preventing Zhou Quan from seeing what was going on in the bedroom.

But the moment Su Yan opened the door, Zhou Quan smelled a strange smell and frowned unconsciously, but he was afraid that it would be impolite to say it out loud, so he kept silent.

"Let's go, I've packed all my things." Su Yan was carrying a bag on her back and closed the door when she came out.

Zhou Quan didn't say anything. He walked to the sofa and supported Gao Lin, and the few of them prepared to leave.

Because Gao Lin was a wounded soldier, Lou Su pulled Chu Xihen aside and waited for Zhou Quan to support him and walk to the front.

Su Yan walked at the end, looking back every few steps towards the master bedroom.

Chu Xihen thought her behavior was a little strange, "Are you reluctant to leave?"

"Ah?" Su Yan was a little panicked, "No, no, let's go!"

Just as Su Yan finished her words, Zhou Quan, who had gone out, came back dragging Gao Lin with him, "I can't walk any further. The sun is too strong outside. Look at what I'm doing!"

Zhou Quan was wearing a short-sleeved shirt. He took out his left hand and found that the back of his hand was red and covered with blisters, as if it had been burned.

"Fortunately, I reached out and waved my hand first, otherwise Gao Lin and I would have walked out directly and now we would be sunburned all over." Zhou Quan was very grateful.

His hands were still burning like fire. He opened the refrigerator with ease and put his hands in.

Although there is a power outage, the temperature in the refrigerator is still low and can help cool him down.

"What should we do? Aren't we leaving?" Su Yan asked immediately.

Chu Xihen also tugged at his clothes and said, "Then wait until the afternoon and see if things get better after the sun sets."

He didn't want to walk, especially when the weather was so hot, he just wanted to lie down and not move.

It's a pity that with the current temperature, he doesn't want to lie on the bed, let alone touch the sofa. He just wants to have close contact with the floor.

Thinking of this, he sat down on the ground.

Lou Su walked around him and went to the window, looking at the scorching summer day outside with a slightly gloomy face.

Gao Lin was somewhat worried and kept an eye on his movements.

Su Yan sat back on the sofa with her bag on her back. She looked worried and didn't seem as enthusiastic as the others.

Zhou Quan's hands felt less uncomfortable, so he took it out of the refrigerator and sniffed it.

"Are my hands burnt by the sun? Do you smell any bad odor?" Zhou Quan asked.

Before anyone else could say anything, Su Yan stood up and said, "No, there's something wrong with your nose, right?"

Chu Xihen glanced at Su Yan again, then set his gaze towards the master bedroom. "Is there anything in the master bedroom? Why are you so nervous?"

He is either too lazy to talk or he just picks out the key points.

There was obviously something wrong with Su Yan, and he had noticed it, so there was no way he could pretend not to see it.

When asked by Chu Xihen, Su Yan panicked even more, "No, nothing!"

Although she said this, Su Yan stood up unconsciously and stood in front of the master bedroom door. Wasn't this a clear signal to others that something was hidden in the room?

"Come to think of it, this stench seems to come from the master bedroom. Su Yan, what is in there?" The closer Zhou Quan got to the master bedroom, the stronger the smell became.

Su Yan bit her lower lip, not knowing how to explain herself.

"Are your parents in there?" Chu Xihen asked softly.

As soon as he said this, everyone looked in his direction with disbelief on their faces.

Su Yan burst into tears at this time, "Yes, they are in there, but my mother is dead, and my father..."

She didn't say the rest of the words, and was replaced by crying.

Zhou Quan asked carefully: "Are you okay? Last night you..."

Su Yan shook her head. "I'm fine. Although my father was infected, he was tied up and couldn't get away."

"Can we go in and take a look?" Lou Su asked.
