Pei Xiqing lives in the headquarters. It is not located in the bungalow area, nor does it match the neon lights of the high-rise buildings in front. It is unique, like a dark castle that has nothing to do with either area, and is full of mystery.
But this is just the perception from the outside.
During the time Pei Xiqing lived there, the originally depressing, dark, and somewhat bleak house had become filled with many of her and Xiao Yi's things.
Originally she didn't have much, but didn't someone say "I'm here now"?
She came to the headquarters a few days ago and was always feeling uncomfortable because of the parasites and her condition. She didn't have the energy to look around the headquarters carefully. These days, without those troubles and the parasites no longer crawling ashore, she went to Linglang to pick up Xiao Yu and took it to visit several commercial buildings at the headquarters.
The headquarters is worthy of being the headquarters.
Skyscrapers, the ultimate prosperity and splendor.
There are more than ten shopping malls of all sizes. She went to one of them and her legs were almost broken from walking. If she used exercise step counting to calculate, she would probably have walked over 60,000 steps during her trip to the mall.
Moreover, compared with the shopping malls I had visited in other bases before, the shopping mall at the headquarters did not show any trace of the apocalypse at all, and it was still as prosperous as before the apocalypse.
The neon lights of the shops on both sides flashed so brightly that people felt like they were in a gorgeous mirage.
Later, she successfully bought a lot of things under the extreme sales promotion of those robotic shopping guides. Anyway, her two hands plus the bag in her mouth were already overweight.
But she didn't know how many there were.
After wandering around for a while, I finally got back and found Duan Xiaolin already sitting on the sofa, flipping through some documents.
Around him were all kinds of shopping bags that she had asked Shadow to bring back in advance.
It filled up more than half of the living room.
There was almost no place for people to step when they came in.
Pei Xiqing didn't know how he got in.
Holding Xiao Yi's hand, she stumbled over and fiddled with the shopping bags piled on the sofa. "That's not right... I didn't plan to buy these things, so why are all of them here when I get back?"
She had only looked at most of the things in here hesitantly and had no intention of buying them. How come they were delivered to her home in the blink of an eye?
She turned to look at the man who was signing. "Brother Duan, you can still see through all these things when you're sitting there. Won't it block your view?"
Duan Xiaolin closed the document and said, "I'm waiting for you to come back. I'll take a look at a few copies."
"When did you come back?"
"A little earlier than you."
She kept telling the man how huge the mall was. "My legs are almost worn out from walking all day, and when I looked back I realized I'd only walked three feet."
Duan Xiaolin listened, his thin lips slightly raised. "There are transportation options in the mall. If you just rely on walking, it might take two or three days to finish shopping in the mall."
"It's so scary..." This is just one of the more than ten shopping malls.
How is this different from visiting a tourist attraction?
The man helped her move the things on the sofa and asked, "What did you buy?"
"So many things, some of which I didn't plan to buy, were delivered to me. Did you do this behind my back?" Pei Xiqing was so tired that she sat down next to him, took off her shoes and fell on the sofa, her legs consciously resting on the man's knees.
He put down the item in his hand and began to massage her calves. "It's rare to see you so eager to shop."
"That was before I thought it was unnecessary." At that time, even staying alive was a difficult thing. She had to carefully hide the fact that she was a zombie all the time. She had no time to dress up. She just had to be as low-key as possible every day.
She fell on the sofa, playing with a small toy she had just bought at the mall, and threw it to the little girl next to her.
It chewed on it like a bone and then went to play with it in its own mouth.
The strength on her legs was very comfortable, just right, and she felt that a lot of fatigue from the day was relieved.
But this intensity gradually became a little unruly.
At least for her, the focus of the massage was moving upwards from her calves. She was about to fall asleep quietly when she was suddenly startled by the hand that gently touched the inside of her thigh.
Pei Xiqing coughed and kicked him quickly.
He smiled and held my ankle.
