◎How can I bear to refuse you◎
Li Yiqing woke up slowly at the call of Qi Qiuxue.
"I fell asleep?" She sat up in a daze, looked at the person standing in front of her in the backlight, and murmured, "...Axue, how long have I been asleep?"
"I don't know." Qi Qiuxue shook her head and opened her mouth to answer her question, "I just woke up too."
"Is it time for dinner?" The aroma of food filled her nose. Li Yiqing looked forward and saw several figures busy in the kitchen. Through the water vapor on the glass window, she vaguely recognized their identities.
It’s Liu Ge, Su Wen, Wu Shanyue, and... Mom.
"Yeah." Qi Qiuxue raised her hand and rubbed her aching temple, saying slowly, "Dinner's almost ready. Mom said we're having steak tonight."
"Come on." She pulled Li Yiqing up naturally. "If you keep dawdling, Mom will get mad."
"Okay." Li Yiqing nodded and followed her steps. They walked into the kitchen together and brought all the prepared food to the dining table.
"I seem to have had a very long dream." Li Yiqing said softly as he placed tableware for six people.
Qi Qiuxue's movements slowed down: "...Me too."
"What did Axue dream about?" Li Yiqing met her gaze. Perhaps because she had slept for too long, her memory was a little confused at this moment.
"I can't remember clearly." Qi Qiuxue paused for a few seconds, then said, "Anyway, it's just a bunch of jumbled images. There's no logic to it, and it's hard to connect them."
"Maybe I've been under too much pressure recently," she said.
"Probably." Li Yiqing sighed. The woman happened to come out at that moment, carrying the last dish of soup. Li Yiqing ended the conversation and looked in the direction of the woman. "Thank you for your hard work, Mom."
"It's not hard." The woman raised her hand and gently stroked her head, a gentle smile still on her face. "For my babies, whatever I do is worth it."
"Let's eat." She opened her mouth and motioned for others to sit down.
So Qi Qiuxue and the others pulled out their chairs and sat in their own seats. Before enjoying the sumptuous meal, they prayed together as usual, thanking God for giving them delicious food and water.
While eating, everyone quietly enjoyed the food on their plates without making a sound.
It was already evening, and the late autumn night was cold and desolate. Looking out through the window, it was pitch black everywhere and extremely quiet, but everyone seemed to have been used to it and didn't care.
“…”
The time now is xxxx. Due to some unknown reason, all humans around the world have died mysteriously, and they are the few and only remaining humans.
——A happy family of six with no blood relationship.
The fate between them can be traced back to many years ago, when Qi Qiuxue and others were still children. "Mom" adopted them at different times and in different ways, taught them knowledge and skills, gave them spiritual and material support, and grew up with them.
In the eyes of Qi Qiuxue and the others, their mother was gentle but also serious. While she loved them deeply, she also had strict requirements for everyone, telling them what to say, what to do, what to ask about, and what not to delve into...
Over the years, they have perfectly implemented the instructions given by their mother and tried their best to abide by the rules set by their mother until now.
"I am really happy to have my mother's love." After dinner, Wu Shanyue put her hands on her chest and expressed her feelings sincerely.
"So am I." Liu Ge beside him smiled, his eyes and tone were particularly sincere, "Thank you for everything you have done for us, Mom."
"I will always trust my mother, respect her, and obey all her arrangements." Su Wen said piously.
"Yes." Li Yiqing was also very sincere. "Mom is everything to us."
"Ah Xue." The woman smiled softly, her eyes wandering across everyone's faces with satisfaction, and then stopped at Qi Qiuxue. "Are you feeling unwell tonight? Why do you seem a little quiet?"
"I'm fine." Qi Qiuxue continued, "Maybe it's because I slept a little too long this afternoon, so I'm a little out of shape."
"Thank you for your concern, Mom," she said. "I will always love you."
"Me too." The woman smiled with even greater satisfaction after hearing this. "I will always love and protect my babies."
"It's getting late, time to go to bed." The night outside the window seemed to have deepened. The woman yawned and slowly stood up. "Everyone, just put your plates in the sink. I'll wash them later."
"Okay." Everyone nodded in agreement. No one suggested staying to help, as Mom wouldn't agree. "Let's go back to the room now."
"Goodnight, Mom," they said.
"Good night." The woman smiled softly again, "My darlings."

This facility is huge and has many rooms, which can accommodate many people.
Qi Qiuxue and others' rooms were on the same floor, adjacent to each other. Watching everyone return to their bedrooms, Qi Qiuxue pushed open the door in front of her and walked into the room.
Then she went into the bathroom and stood under the shower to rinse her body briefly.
Even though all human beings in the world have been destroyed and the life they were accustomed to has undergone earth-shaking changes, fortunately, both electricity and water power can still operate as usual, and there has never been a shortage of food and daily necessities they need in their daily lives.
Because no matter what the situation is, mom has a way to solve it.
The warm water flowed through every corner of their bodies, and their thoughts spread far away. They had not left the facility for a long time since the extinction of mankind.
——This is the mother's order, and as her daughters, they naturally have to obey all her instructions.
Similarly, they never touched electronic devices or went online again. Their daily entertainment was just reading, chatting, exercising, practicing fighting, and maintaining weapons.
In short, they can't do anything that their mother has expressly forbidden, otherwise their mother will be angry.
Of course, for Yu Qi Qiuxue, she actually has some other ways to entertain herself. Her mother has never agreed to this, but she has never refused it either.
There was a knock on the door.
Qi Qiuxue had already laid down on the bed. She didn't ask who the visitor was, but just said softly, "Come in."
Then in the next second, someone pushed the door open in the dark, and she slowly approached the bed with light steps and leaned close to her.
The woman had a pleasant fragrance, and a few strands of her long curly hair hung down, the ends of her hair brushing lightly across her face, arousing a bit of itchiness.
Qi Qiuxue raised her eyes and saw the red cross on the woman's earlobe emitting a faint glow under the moonlight.
"Will you stay in my room tonight?" Qi Qiuxue brushed aside the loose hair on her temples and raised her lips to meet the woman's beautiful eyes, "Sister."
"Isn't it possible?" Li Yiqing also smiled, lowered his eyes and kissed her lips, exchanging a lingering kiss with her.
"Of course." Qi Qiuxue hooked her neck, brought the newcomer to her bed, and let her sleep next to her pillow.
"How could I bear to refuse you?"
