The man's eyes were somewhat dim and unclear behind his glasses.
He seemed to be looking at her for a long time.
There is some nostalgia, but also some... indifference towards this place.
He said, "Let's go downstairs and have dinner."
"Here I come."
Pei Xiqing brought out the dirty water.
Walk down the stairs to eat.
Not long after he sat down, Qiu Chao came knocking on the door again.
Pei Xiqing opened the door and let him in. As he walked in, he asked, "Are you high from absorbing the crystal core again?"
"That's not the way to say it. I was just enjoying myself." He swaggered in and sat down in a chair with familiarity. He glanced around the living room and dining room. "Wow, it feels like there are a lot more things in this room. Who picked that pink painting? You have good taste."
"I'll pick it. Isn't it nice?"
"It's a bit abstract, but overall it's good." He wondered, "Why does it look like... a pig to me?"
"Yes, it's a pig. A pink pig."
"You want someone to draw it?"
"Uh-huh."
Qiu Chao: "That's a good idea."
During the meal, Qiu Chao praised the new additions to the house and agreed very much with Pei Xiqing's vision.
He said, "In the past, I never could have imagined that Judge Franklin's home would one day end up like this. I'm going to take a few photos and bring them back for him to admire."
Duan Xiaolin commented lightly on his actions: "I don't mind, but you have to be mentally prepared."
"What kind of mental preparation?"
"Be prepared to be locked out in the future."
Qiu Chao coughed and said, "Don't be so serious, Brother Duan."
After dinner, Qiu Chao hadn't planned to leave yet. It was obvious that he had something to say to Duan Xiaolin, so Pei Xiqing took Xiao Yidan for a walk, leaving the two of them some space.
But before leaving, Xiao Yi was still dawdling. She stood at the door and couldn't help but hear a few of their conversations.
Interspersed among them are words related to "parasite", "marshal", "crystal core" and so on.
Although everything seems calm at the moment, the parasitic problem has never been fundamentally resolved.
The last parasite disaster at headquarters was a deliberate act, and it was resolved in the blink of an eye. Moreover, with the defense mechanisms and capabilities here, even if the parasite becomes more rampant, it will definitely not be as bold as last time to climb onto the street.
The situation is not necessarily the same for the other bases.
The situation is certainly complex and difficult.
It's a hell out there.
She closed the door and stood outside for a moment, but was dragged out by Xiao Yi before she came to her senses.
She took Xiao Yi for a few laps outside. After about half an hour, Xiao Yi was still wandering around energetically. She was really tired and almost couldn't hold Xiao Yi's rope. Fortunately, someone nearby helped her.
Ling Lang held the military cap, not knowing when his father would come. He pulled the rope with one hand, exerted a little force, and grabbed the little boy who was about to rush forward.
"Are you done?" she asked.
Ling Lang nodded: "Almost."
"It must be very hard lately."
"Not bad." He said nonchalantly, "This level is nothing to me."
"That's good."
After a while, he asked, "How are you?"
"Recovery is going well."
Ling Lang glanced at her and saw from a distance that she had a rosy complexion and kept rubbing her legs. She must be tired from shopping, and there must be nothing wrong with her body.
He said, “I see.”
"You should take care of yourself too. You should rest when you need to and not overwork yourself. You should also eat your three meals a day properly. You guys just like to combine them into one."
Ling Lang tilted his head: "Can you stop caring about me?"
Pei Xiqing: "...You said it, so I won't say it anymore."
Ling Lang looked away again, "That won't work either."
Pei Xiqing said with a smile: "Then what do you want to do?"
"As you wish."
He was still as arrogant and contemptuous as before.
Pei Xiqing was helpless.
The little one lowered his head and sniffed around in front.
He took a few steps and suddenly murmured in a low voice: "If even you don't care about me, then no one will tell me these things anymore."
"Hmm? What did you say?"
"Nothing."
Pei Xiqing really didn't hear it.
Ling Lang was too lazy to explain further, as it seemed pretentious.
He scolded Xiao Yi, rubbed Xiao Yi's neck, held it down, and threatened Xiao Yi: "If you dare to mess around again, you're finished, do you hear me?"
Xiao Yu whimpered a few times and lay on the ground without saying a word.
Ling Lang said, "There are instructions in the army. If you can't stop it sometimes, just tell it the action instructions in the team and it will obey."
"You're more experienced."
"I've seen a lot of stupid dogs like this." He snorted and returned the rope to Pei Xiqing.
As he turned to leave, he paused slightly, turned his back to her and said, "Pei Xiqing... I'm going to lead the army to fight in a few days, and I don't know exactly when you will be back. You... if you can stay at the headquarters, don't leave here."
Even if the entire end of the world is occupied by zombies and parasites, he will protect the last piece of pure land here at the headquarters.
Pei Xiqing opened her lips slightly: "Why is it you?"
"Who else could it be besides me?" He said disdainfully, "I am the only major general. Do I really have to rely on that useless Gu He?"
"That's not what I meant. I didn't expect you to lead the army out in person."
"Normal." He said, "I'm the only one who can do this for you, brother."
Seeing him about to leave, Pei Xiqing quickly caught up with him: "Wait a minute, Ling Lang..."
He stopped and asked, "What?"
