Lost memories
"Why don't you leave, you haunting show-off Zi?"
He Tianlin's clear, young voice was tinged with impatience. He was still resentful of Song Xuan for putting his arm around Liu Xia's waist. He was not pleased with anything about him and rolled his eyes before continuing, "You've been following us for most of the day, aren't you annoying me with your shameless behavior?"
Song Xuan leaned against the wall with an expressionless face, his fingers unconsciously picking at the buttons on his shirt, but his eyes were always on Liu Xia, and he seemed to have no intention of paying any attention to what He Tianlin was saying.
He Tianlin didn't get a response and was too lazy to chase the person away. He couldn't beat the person away by beating him or scolding him, so he had to open a can of fruit and hand it to Ding Ruotong, who was still a little dazed. He also opened a can and sat cross-legged to eat it.
They had already dealt with two groups of security guards who tried to go up to the third floor to check, and they were starving.
In addition to many high-end liquors, the third floor also stores a lot of emergency medicines, food and a small amount of weapons and ammunition. However, most of these foods are canned products and are still within the shelf life. It can be said that Yu Sisi's inventory is very luxurious and very complete. It seems that she is very confident in the safety factor of the third floor.
When He Tianlin was searching the third floor, he also found a safe, which contained several exotic beast cores above level three, as well as seven or eight exotic beast cores below level three. This time he made a fortune. In addition to some precious medicines, he also put all the exotic beast cores into his backpack.
He was initially worried that Song Xuan might come and try to grab a piece of the pie, so he was a little wary. However, Song Xuan seemed to have no interest in these things at all, so he finally felt relieved.
As soon as Liu Xia regained consciousness, she felt a cool breeze with the smell of sea water blowing in front of her, and there was a person squatting beside her.
"You're awake." Song Xuan looked nervously at Liu Xia, who was lying on the sofa, frowning slightly due to a headache. He held a bottle of clean water in his hand. "Would you like some water?"
"Sister Xia!" He Tianlin was still busy with the can in his hand. Upon hearing the noise, he quickly came over and tried to push Song Xuan away with his butt, but found that he couldn't move him. He couldn't help but complain, "What's wrong with you? Do we know you well? Why are you so close to us?"
When Liu Xia sat up, he found that he was still covered with a blanket. He didn't know who had looted it from somewhere. Looking at He Tianlin and Song Xuan who were not happy with each other, he felt helpless and habitually reached out to rub He Tianlin's furry head.
"Song Xuan helped us a lot this time, so be polite."
He Tianlin was in a good mood after being flattered. He said "oh" and stopped being sarcastic to Song Xuan beside him. He nodded with a smile.
On the contrary, Song Xuan, who was originally very happy because Liu Xia woke up, had his almond-shaped eyes gradually dimmed, and the smile on his face fell down. His expression instantly changed from the bright spring to the cold winter, and the water bottle in his hand was almost crushed by him.
His back teeth were sore from biting, and his Adam's apple rolled up and down three times before he swallowed back the words, "Look at me."
"How's Atong?"
Liu Xia didn't notice these. When she stood up just now, she saw Ding Ruotong sitting not far away with a dazed look on her face. She was picking at the can mouthful by mouthful like a human machine. The fork tip scraped the bottom of the can, making a harsh sound, but she didn't react at all. She felt a little worried.
"Why do I feel like everyone has become stupid?"
He Tianlin said, "Mr. Song said he's fine, but his nerves haven't recovered from the injection yet. He said he'll be fine tomorrow after a good rest."
Only then did Liu Xia notice the bottle of clean water that was handed to her. She took it and politely thanked him, which earned her an increasingly complicated expression from Song Xuan, who didn't know whether he was happy or unhappy.
She shook her head secretly in her heart: "This man's mind is really hard to figure out."
However, Liu Xia was not interested in understanding all this. In her mind, doing her job was more important. She had to hurry up to recycle another piece of garbage and go back to save Bai Fei.
"Thank you for saving me today on the first floor."
Looking at Song Xuan beside him, Liu Xia no longer trusted anyone other than his companions because of Zhou Wei's backstabbing, and could not let someone he didn't know stay with him.
Liu Xia continued with a sincere look in his eyes: "If you need my help in the future, I will definitely help you as long as the situation allows. Now I have something very important to do, so let's part ways here."
Song Xuan did not answer Liu Xia's words, but just looked at her solemnly, as if he had a thousand words in his heart.
Liu Xia didn't seem to mind the lack of a response. She stood up and stretched her stiff limbs, a series of soft, crisp sounds echoing through her bones. She felt her strength grow stronger, and her intuition told her that if she could tear the alloy wall again, she should be able to do it from a greater distance.
"Yes, yes, we still have things to do." He Tianlin stood up with a smile and walked towards the backpack containing the supplies. He couldn't wait to leave here and said in a light voice, "Let's separate here!"
Song Xuan had been squatting beside the sofa in order to communicate more conveniently with Liu Xia at close range. He now stood up and was a head taller than Liu Xia. The purple satin shirt on his body reflected the light, making him look very gorgeous and expensive.
He walked silently to Liu Xia's side, gently holding her arm with his left hand, which had not been replaced with a mechanical prosthesis. He placed his right hand on his aching heart and said slowly, "Don't you remember me?"
Liu Xia could have dodged, but when she saw Song Xuan's red eyes looking at her, she couldn't bear it for some reason and let him hold her arm.
The man has said this more than once.
Song Xuan grabbed Liu Xia's arm and slowly knelt on one knee with his right leg. All his movements were very slow and gentle. Liu Xia could break free with just a little effort.
He lowered his head as he knelt down, and then knelt on his knees in front of Liu Xia. He Tianlin, who was carrying the luggage at the side, couldn't help but widen his eyes, not knowing whether he should go forward and pull away this damn show-off Zi.
"I'm Song Xiaoba." Song Xuan's clean voice became a little muffled.
He knelt in front of Liu Xia and lowered his body, slowly burying his head in her calves, feeling the long-lost gentle breath, and choked with sobs, "Sister Xiaoxia, do you really not remember me?"
Song Xuan knelt in front of Liu Xia in a very humble and affectionate manner, as if they had really known each other before, and this relationship was not just a simple friendship.
A memory that seemed to be buried deep in my mind suddenly came out.
She suddenly remembered the rainy night ten years ago when the iron gate of an abandoned school in the eighth garbage area was slammed loudly. She was holding a boy who was soaked all over. They huddled together on the steps to avoid the rain. There was a wound on the boy's wrist that was whitened by the rain.
"Sister Xiaoxia, are we going to die?"
Xiao Song's hungry eyes were almost unable to open. His right hand, which was bitten by the mutant rat, began to become infected and festered, emitting a faint foul odor. If he could not get treatment, not only would he lose his hand, but his life would probably come to an end as well.
"Xiao Ba won't die, and neither will I." Little Liu Xia stared at the figure walking towards them. Although she was shivering from the cold rain, her tone was remarkably firm. "Neither of us will die."
