Chapter 222: Walking into the Darkness
The nights in the mountains are cooler without the stuffiness of the day.
Li Sihui was walking on the mountain road with a sickle in her hand and suddenly stopped. She was so angry that she forgot to give Zhou Zisong a raincoat and a flashlight.
She ran home with the sickle in hand. When she arrived at the entrance of the village with a raincoat and flashlight, she could not find Zhou Zisong. The jeep had already left.
He lowered his hands in disappointment. Wasn't this considered breaking her promise?
She pursed her lips and thought about it. She didn't want to be a person who goes back on her word.
Holding a raincoat and a flashlight, he walked resolutely into the darkness.
The road was quiet. From the woods on both sides of the road, the sounds of cicadas and frogs could be heard from time to time, and there were also a few crows cawing from time to time.
This dense birch forest looks beautiful during the day, but it becomes eerie and scary at night.
Girls are generally afraid, but Li Sihui doesn't feel that way.
She had experienced many more frightening scenes in the apocalypse than this, and she found that she was so brave that she could cover the sky.
An hour later, she stood at the gate of the military compound. As usual, the guards would not let her in, so she had to ask them to call the Zhou family.
“Ding ding.”
There was a horn sound behind her, and Li Sihui just moved to the side of the road without even looking at who was sitting in the car.
"Are you here to see me?"
When Zhou Zisong saw him honking the horn, Li Sihui didn't even look at him, but rolled down the window and asked her a question.
The sound was not loud, but in the quiet night, she still heard it.
She suddenly looked up at Zhou Zisong, a doubt flashing through her mind. He drove away first, and she walked to find him, so why did he walk behind her?
Moreover, how could he be so sure that he was here to find him?
"Are you sending me a raincoat and a flashlight?"
Seeing that Li Sihui just looked at him in confusion and didn't answer the question, Zhou Zisong knew what she was thinking. He raised the corner of his mouth slightly and pointed at the raincoat in her hand.
"Oh, yes, I came to bring you your raincoat."
Li Sihui blushed slightly and hurriedly handed over the raincoat and flashlight.
"Actually, I still have some, so you don't have to rush to send it back to me."
Zhou Zisong, who is usually taciturn, said a few more words today.
"Well, I told you to wait, but something delayed me."
Li Sihui's expression had returned to normal by now. She said something calmly and started to leave.
"Wait a minute, I'll take you back."
Zhou Zisong threw his raincoat on the back seat of the car, opened the passenger door and let Li Sihui get in.
"No, it's troublesome to run back and forth."
Li Sihui hesitated for a moment, and because she didn't want to cause trouble for Zhou Zisong, she rejected his proposal.
"Get in the car."
Zhou Zisong's voice was commanding and he looked at Li Sihui seriously.
It was dark and the road was bumpy. No one could see a person hiding in the woods. It was too dangerous for a beautiful girl to walk on the road alone.
"No."
Li Sihui frowned and looked at him. She didn't like being ordered around.
Just walk away without saying anything more to him.
Zhou Zisong frowned and looked at her back. The night was dark and soon she was hidden in the darkness.
"call."
He glanced at his home which was so close at hand, then looked at the rearview mirror, but the girl was no longer there.
Finally, he turned the steering wheel and drove into the night instead of entering the house.
The security guard called back and found that the beautiful girl was no longer at the door. He frowned. Was he being tricked?
He had no choice but to turn around and go back to call the Zhou family again to inform them.
After Zhou Zixu answered the phone, he glanced at the sky outside, picked up the car keys on the coffee table, and muttered, "What the hell is she doing?"
