"You're the crazy one! Have you ever seen such a beautiful crazy person?"
Ke Meiyu brought her delicate and beautiful face close to his.
“I’ve seen her,” Ying Yan paused, turning her head to look at the tombstone she had just walked over. “She was one of them.”
Ke Meiyu turned her head to look, and it turned out to be his mother?
For some reason, as she watched the lonely little figure walking further and further away, she suddenly felt a pang of heartache and sadness.
If she had known she could be reborn and escape the big boss's control, she should have been more obedient and kinder to him. Perhaps she was the only painkiller for the deeply morbid big boss.
Even with her eyes open, Ke Meiyu's eyes were still wet.
She turned her head to look at Qin Yuanjiu, who was peeling an orange and handing it to her, and said with unusual seriousness, "Don't worry, I will definitely rescue you!"
The main villain's original sin lies in his unwillingness to carry out the mission and his reluctance to sacrifice his own life for the researchers' lives.
Ke Meiyu, who was already selfish, cherished her life even more after experiencing the apocalypse.
When a person dies, everything is gone. What's the point of being so great?
So what if she's an idealist? Life is only a few decades long. It's foolish not to enjoy life for yourself!
Everyone is criticizing the main villain for being greedy and afraid of death, but why don't the people who criticize him speak up?
If you lack the ability, then use a series of attacks!
If all else fails, let's just die together. It's easy to talk when you're not in the situation, and it's all moral blackmail. So, it's others who are going to die, while you get a share of the protected interests?
Besides, if those researchers were so important, how did they get captured?
Where are the people who protect them?
Why should all the blame be placed on the main villain?
For the sake of him being her mobile cash register, she will do her best to protect him!
If she had intervened beforehand and prevented the researcher from being captured, could the villain's fate have been reversed?
"Sleepyheaded? Went to the galaxy to be a warrior?" Qin Yuanjiu glanced at her and disdainfully shoved the orange into her hand.
Ke Meiyu angrily took a bite; sure enough, the villain was just as unlovable as the boss.
After getting off the car, Ke Meiyu breathed in the fresh air and immediately felt all the hairs on her body relax.
The provincial capital wasn't much better; people on bicycles darted around like ants, and cars and trucks were common. Residential buildings, office buildings, and various shops lined the streets.
It looked like several towns were indiscriminately pieced together, still a gray and gloomy sight, except for the bright red scarves around the young women's necks and the organization's propaganda posters, there was nothing bright at all.
After leaving the station, they squeezed onto a bus and swayed their way to the city center.
"What should we buy?" Ke Meiyu asked listlessly. "Is there anything that's not available in town? And it'll be such a long bus ride back and forth..."
Just thinking about having to sit for three hours to get back made her want to bang her head against a wall!
"I'll buy you some clothes, and we'll go to the theater to see a performance. It's getting late, so we won't go back today. We'll go to the hotel to rest, and tomorrow we'll visit the zoo and the museum. We'll take the bus back in the afternoon."
Ke Meiyu exclaimed in surprise, then immediately adopted a more serious demeanor. "Comrade Qin, although we've registered our marriage, we're not really in love. We're just living together to save my mother from constantly nagging me to find someone..."
Qin Yuanjiu scoffed, "Comrade Ke, you're overthinking it. I bought the clothes because there weren't many styles available in town. The tickets for the theater, zoo, and museum were a gift from Director Sun."
“Not only do you not want to travel back and forth in the same day, but I also want to rest.”
Ke Meiyu glared at him. "Are you some kind of hot commodity? Why do people always want to give you tickets?"
"There was nothing I could do. As soon as Director Sun heard I was coming to the provincial capital, he insisted on giving it to me. It was a benefit for the company's employees, as a thank you for our report." Qin Yuanjiu shrugged helplessly, looking like he didn't want it at all, but someone insisted on giving it to him.
"The guesthouse is government-owned, and we have a permit from the local authorities, so we don't have to pay anything."
"If you don't like it, we won't go."
"Go, why wouldn't you go?" Ke Meiyu quickly snatched the stack of tickets and slips of paper from his hand. Why wouldn't you take something that's free?
Then she realized she was being too hasty, so she coughed softly and continued to glare at him: "I didn't expect you to be this kind of person."
"I'll let it go this time, but you can't take advantage of others next time. Otherwise, you'll get used to it and start embezzling and accepting bribes when you're at work."
Qin Yuanjiu dragged her into the supply and marketing cooperative in a bad mood.
It has to be said that the supply and marketing cooperative in the provincial capital is very comprehensive. It has a large area and is three stories high. Today is the Double Ninth Festival. Although it is not the weekend, there are many people crowded at each counter.
Ke Meiyu looked at the items on the shelves and couldn't resist the urge to buy them. She finally felt like she was going shopping.
She excitedly poked the man next to her, "Comrade Qin, did you bring enough money?"
“As long as you don’t move the supply and marketing cooperative back home, it should be enough,” Qin Yuanjiu nodded.
She gasped softly, then pulled him into the crowd.
Ke Meiyu first went to the clothing section on the second floor, bought a few hair clips and headbands, picked out a few outfits for herself, and gave her family a lot of fabric to make their own clothes.
She wanted to pay for the fabric herself and with the fare, but Qin Yuanjiu draped a few pieces of fabric over it, saying, "Make me a few outfits while you're at it."
Then he took the receipt and went to pay.
After buying a bunch of snacks on the first floor, Ke Meiyu contentedly munched on a bag of honey-flavored snacks, while Qin Yuanjiu, still looking radiant and intimidating, followed behind her carrying large and small bags.
They first went to a guesthouse not far away, a two-story red building with a floor decorated with pebbles and a three-centimeter-high burgundy painted wainscoting. The corridor was low and dimly lit.
The receptionist, upon seeing the attractive couple, immediately perked up and asked with a smile, "Would you two like to book a room?"
Qin Yuanjiu hummed in agreement and took out his marriage certificate, letter of introduction, and a note from the police station.
Ke Meiyu smiled sweetly and handed over two pretty oranges: "Sister, where is the state-run restaurant? Do you have any recommendations for delicious dishes?"
The receptionist had never seen the guesthouse so bright before. After feasting her eyes, she was in a good mood and revealed two small dimples at the corners of her mouth: "Just go out the door and walk to the end of the street, past two intersections."
“Our head chef at this state-run restaurant is quite remarkable,” she said in a low voice. “I heard he’s a descendant of one of the top ten chefs from Xia Hua a hundred years ago. He can cook anything, whether it’s meat or vegetables. When leaders come, they like to drive here to entertain them.”
"Take this slip, you two. You can order whatever you want," the receptionist said with a smile, writing the character "Yin" on the slip. "My sister works there!"
Ke Meiyu nodded repeatedly, her mouth watering. "Sister hasn't eaten yet, has she? We'll bring you some later!"
