obedient
After Sheng Xingzhou rested for a while, Sang Jiyue was wiping her mouth when he went to the front to remove the obstacle.
Sang Jiyue was still wiping his mouth when the off-road vehicle started moving forward steadily again.
When they stopped to rest in the evening, Sang Jiyue would occasionally rub the corners of her mouth with the back of her hand.
She seemed extremely irritable the whole day, staring at Sheng Xingzhou from time to time and muttering something about him being sneaky and shameless.
Sheng Xingzhou was observing the terrain outside. They had returned to Yancheng at this time, but the city had fallen. Among the collapsed buildings, there were only wandering zombies and strange beasts.
On a snowy day, both zombies and strange beasts hid themselves.
This place is still in the suburbs of Yancheng. To be on the safe side, he still needs to sleep in the car tonight. Fortunately, it is not cold in the car because the air conditioner is on. Even if there is no air conditioner, he has his body temperature or supernatural powers to keep Sang Jiyue warm, so he doesn't have to worry about her being cold.
It had been snowing all day, and the risk of their journey was very high. Fortunately, they were still a long distance away from the village where they had started, and the wind and snow would only get stronger at night. As long as Jiang Wangxi didn't catch up tonight, it would be difficult for them to catch up later.
At least before the ice and snow melt in spring, Jiang Wangxi will have no chance of finding them again.
Sheng Xingzhou thought about it and turned his gaze to Sang Jiyue. She was curled up in the back seat with a blanket and taking a nap, occasionally rubbing the corner of her mouth with the back of her hand.
He parked the car between the collapsed buildings, then moved from the driver's seat to the back seat. He pinched her soft cheek, and Sang Jiyue slapped her hand hard, turning it red.
Sheng Xingzhou didn't care at all, and said with a grin, "Still savoring it, Sister Yue."
Just as Sang Jiyue was about to scold him, he unscrewed the water cup next to her, brought it close to her lips, and asked her to drink some water before scolding him.
The water was already handed to her mouth, but Sang Jiyue took a big sip out of habit. It tasted sweet, probably honey water. When she wanted to take another sip, Sheng Xingzhou took the cup away.
"Drink some water, dinner will be served soon."
Sang Jiyue snorted coldly.
They were currently inside a collapsed building. The broken walls and ruins just shielded them from the wind and snow above and around them, but the temperature was still very low overall.
Sheng Xingzhou squatted in a sheltered corner and took out the ingredients and cooking utensils.
It was cold today, so he thought of making a pot of fish soup.
Sang Jiyue was bored in the car, so she changed into thick winter clothes, then jumped out of the car and stood next to Sheng Xingzhou, holding a cup of water and taking a sip from time to time in front of him.
Rebellious and cute.
Sheng Xingzhou moved a small stool to the side and asked Sang Jiyue, "Ayue, are you cold?"
Sang Jiyue sat down and said lazily, "The person is not cold, but the heart is cold."
The voice is soft, the content is sharp.
"Then I'll cover you." Sheng Xingzhou squatted in front of her and looked at her with a smile.
Sang Jiyue: "Get lost."
Sheng Xingzhou obediently went back to cooking.
Sang Jiyue looked at the snow-covered world outside and suddenly said, "When my brother comes looking for you, you're done. I won't care about you this time."
"Are you willing to do that?" Sheng Xingzhou asked back.
Sang Jiyue covered her eyes and said, "It doesn't matter if you don't look."
Sheng Xingzhou stretched out his hand and gently pinched her slender finger bones: "Really not looking? Look at me, Sister Yue."
Sang Jiyue shook off Sheng Xingzhou's hand and seemed to not want to pay any attention to him at all.
Dinner was ready quickly. After eating a few pieces of fish, Sang Jiyue pushed the bowl away, looking full, and began to stare blankly at the snowy scene outside.
She seemed to be thinking about something seriously. Sheng Xingzhou wanted to ask, but he felt that Sang Jiyue would definitely say that she was wondering when her brother would come to find her.
After thinking about it, I decided not to ask. It’s not like he really doesn’t care.
After a while, Sheng Xingzhou brought the almost cooled fish soup to Sang Jiyue, put it to her lips, and coaxed her to drink it.
Sang Jiyue drank two sips reluctantly, and then refused to open his mouth again.
Sheng Xingzhou had no choice but to finish the remaining fish and rice. When he was about to extinguish the torch and go to the car to rest with Sang Jiyue, Sang Jiyue spoke.
"I don't want to sleep in the car. It's too stuffy." Sang Jiyue pointed to the empty space next to him and gave an order: "Put up a tent. I want to sleep in the tent."
"There's air conditioning in the car, so you won't be cold."
Sang Jiyue said, "Aren't you in the tent?"
Naturally, Sheng Xingzhou also enjoyed it very much and went to set up the tent happily.
It gets dark early in the winter nights. It was already dark when they entered the tent. They were the only two people in the area, and it was so quiet that you could hear a pin drop.
Sheng Xingzhou was injured and had lost a lot of blood. He had also been driving for a whole day. In total, he had not had a rest for two days and one night. He fell asleep almost as soon as he lay down.
But Sang Jiyue slept very well last night, and also slept for a long time when she was bored during the day. Now she was full of energy, grabbing Sheng Xingzhou's clothes and talking to him from time to time.
Either she said that the hydroponic roses she was growing on the windowsill were frozen to death and she wanted to grow new ones, or she said that if he was asked to build a hundred snowmen for her tomorrow, she would kick him away.
A lot of words that have no real meaning.
Sheng Xingzhou responded actively at first, but later he was so sleepy that he fell asleep while talking.
Sang Jiyue curled her lips and gently kicked him: "Why did you fall asleep? Aren't you afraid that I will run away?"
He was half asleep, and when he heard her voice, he hugged her tightly.
She struggled slightly, then reluctantly closed her eyes and tried to fall asleep.
Maybe it was because he hugged her too tightly, or maybe it was for some other reason, but Sang Jiyue was woken up by the heat early the next morning.
Sang Jiyue pushed Sheng Xingzhou away irritably, snatched away all the quilts, and after dozing for a while, she yawned and got up: "Cook for me, Sheng Xingzhou."
Sheng Xingzhou didn't wake up. He seemed to be sleeping very soundly. It seemed that the temperature in the tent was too high, and his whole face was red.
Sang Jiyue sat next to him and touched his forehead with the back of her hand, which was burning hot. Then she looked at the gunshot wound on his shoulder blade and saw that it was already inflamed.
Inflammation caused fever; in short, he was sick.
Sang Jiyue's expression turned sour again: "I said you are useless and you really are useless. Do you want me to take care of you again?"
Of course, the sleeping person would not give her any response.
Sang Jiyue took out the antipyretic medicine and stuffed it into his mouth, then pried his jaw open and forced him to swallow it.
The medicine was so bitter that his whole face wrinkled up.
"You're actually afraid of taking medicine." Sang Jiyue was even more disdainful: "You're afraid of suffering and pain, you're not as strong as me at all."
As Sang Jiyue spoke, she re-bandaged his wound. After chewing half a piece of bread, she dragged Sheng Xingzhou onto the SUV and took control of the steering wheel again.
Where to go?
Otherwise, go back.
You have to go back anyway.
…
Sheng Xingzhou was in good health, and with timely treatment, his fever subsided and he woke up in the afternoon.
At that time, Sang Jiyue was eating instant noodles, the chili oil dyed her lips red and shiny. Seeing Sheng Xingzhou finally woke up, she casually handed him the instant noodles in her hand: "Are you hungry? Here you go."
Sheng Xingzhou: “…”
He got up, took the unfinished instant noodles from her hand, and then glanced at the car trash can, which was full of packaging bags of various snacks.
Sheng Xingzhou had a headache for a moment: "Ayue, when did you like eating these junk foods so much?"
"Don't you eat too?"
"It's not like I'll fall down with a gust of wind."
Sang Jiyue raised her chin proudly: "I ate it, leave me alone."
Her health had not been very good over the past year, and Sheng Xingzhou had been trying various ways to make delicious food for her, and was reluctant to let her touch those snacks.
Sang Jiyue had no interest in snacks originally, but Sheng Xingzhou's cautious look actually stimulated her appetite, and she often sneaked in some snacks in the past.
Later, when Jiang Wangxi came, Sang Jiyue became obedient and treated the illness with a nonchalant look.
As for being caught by Sheng Xingzhou, it doesn’t matter. He doesn’t dare to interfere with her and will only make more delicious food for her.
Sheng Xingzhou really couldn't control her. If he could really stand up, Sang Jiyue would not be able to show two faces in front of him and Jiang Wangxi.
He finished the half bucket of instant noodles left by Sang Jiyue, then cleaned up the garbage in the car and burned it all before returning to the car.
Sang Jiyue sat in the driver's seat and had no intention of starting the engine because the snow was too heavy and the vision was severely obstructed. They had been hiding here for an hour, and she planned to wait until the snow was a little lighter before continuing on her journey.
Although Sheng Xingzhou's fever had subsided, his body had not fully recovered. However, he moved from the back seat to the passenger seat and began to doze off.
Sang Jiyue kicked her legs out of boredom and suddenly asked Sheng Xingzhou, "Why do you like me?"
Sheng Xingzhou's sleepiness disappeared in an instant.
He looked at Sang Jiyue in surprise, unable to hide his excitement: "Are you finally going to have a relationship with me?"
Sang Jiyue tilted her head: "Is this what it means to talk about love?"
"Yes, you never asked me this before." Sheng Xingzhou nodded affirmatively.
Sang Jiyue simply wanted to chat with Sheng Xingzhou, but she was suddenly curious about why Sheng Xingzhou kept pestering her. She said, "You were obviously scared of me before, and you even called me a crazy woman. You said you didn't like crazy women."
Sheng Xingzhou: "...Did I say that?"
"Yes, I remember them all."
Sheng Xingzhou said with a smug look on his face, "I didn't say that. I don't remember."
"Why don't you remember?"
Of course it’s because he smells so good.
Sheng Xingzhou reached out and hooked her little finger: "Because I like you."
"But I still think you were more pleasing back then." Sang Jiyue glanced at Sheng Xingzhou critically, her fingertips feeling the warmth. She didn't mind his dishonest hands again, and just focused on talking to him: "You were so cute back then. There wasn't a trace of fondness for me in your eyes, only admiration and respect."
She thought she had gained a younger brother, but it turned out to be a fool who coveted her.
Although Sheng Xingzhou is a little bit stronger than everyone else.
Sang Jiyue thought of something and immediately asked him, "So what do you like about me?"
If Sheng Xingzhou said that he liked her because she was beautiful, then he would be no different from anyone else, and she would turn against him on the spot.
If Sheng Xingzhou said that he liked her kindness, then he was really blind and she would turn against him on the spot.
If Sheng Xingzhou said that he liked her because she was cute, he would be insulting her and she would turn against him on the spot.
No matter what he says...I must turn against him!
Sheng Xingzhou seemed to think about it seriously, and then replied: "You only need a reason if you don't like it. If you like it, what reason do you need?"
Sang Jiyue frowned.
Why doesn't this person play by the rules?
Sheng Xingzhou continued, "I just like you. Even if you keep mentioning that annoying Jiang Wangxi to me, even if you try to drive me away every day, I still like you very much."
Sang Jiyue didn't know how to answer. This seemed to be Sheng Xingzhou's formal confession?
She didn't want to respond, so she picked up on his first words and said, "Why don't you need a reason? I have one."
"Then what is the reason why you like me?" Sheng Xingzhou's eyes lit up and he asked her immediately.
Sang Jiyue said without hesitation: "You are very obedient."
Sheng Xingzhou was stunned for a moment.
Sang Jiyue looked distressed again: "There are reasons why I don't like you. You're not listening."
Always going against her is so annoying.
"Are you still thinking about Jiang Wangxi? You want me to send you back obediently? That's impossible." Sheng Xingzhou acted nonchalant, but when he heard what Sang Jiyue said, his smile was inevitably a little forced: "Ayue, we still have a long time in the future. You can always find other reasons to like me."
Sang Jiyue said slowly: "Where does a long time come from? Are you sure?"
Sheng Xingzhou realized something and looked out the car window belatedly. It was all white outside and it was difficult to tell where they were at the moment.
However, what Sang Jiyue meant was very clear - while he was feverish and unconscious, she was on her way back to the village.
Sheng Xingzhou wasn't sure where she had gone, but if she turned back, she would be at risk of being caught up at any time.
Seeing Sheng Xingzhou's pale face, Sang Jiyue chuckled, then said very seriously: "I'm lost. I don't know where this is. If we can't find the way, we might die tonight."
So there are no long days.
This seems to be what Sang Jiyue meant.
Sheng Xingzhou's emotions were in turmoil. He couldn't help but lean over and hug Sang Jiyue, his voice a little muffled: "Ayue, don't give up on me."
"Stop talking nonsense and find the way quickly."
Sheng Xingzhou took a long time to straighten up, picked up the map beside him and went outside to find the way. When he came back, the snow outside had subsided. He shook off the snow on his body and sat back in the driver's seat.
He had already determined their location on the map, but they were still getting farther and farther away from Jiang Wangxi.
Sheng Xingzhou couldn't help but glance at Sang Jiyue who had moved to the passenger seat and started dozing off.
He didn't ask if she was truly lost or if she had briefly chosen him again.
Because he always felt that if he asked, she would say without hesitation that it was because of the former, and if she knew the way, she would drive back without hesitation.
After all, she had been emphasizing this matter to him over and over again over the past two days.
Sheng Xingzhou had no intention of bringing humiliation upon himself, so he fell silent.
Sang Jiyue noticed that the atmosphere in the car had become unusually quiet. She couldn't help but pry open her eyelids and glance at Sheng Xingzhou, wondering why he suddenly became in a bad mood again.
She had clearly just asked him to find the way and didn't say anything unpleasant.
The annoying Sheng Xingzhou became weird.
