The End of the World: Don’t be afraid, I’ll protect you

Chapter 8 Go to sleep in your aunt's bedroom
Xia Wanqing is as gentle as water, and killing someone is indeed a very difficult thing for her to accept.

However, as a writer who often surfs the Internet, she is not only not dull in character, but also not conservative in her thinking.

And because of her greater experience, she has a deeper understanding of human nature.

I know very well in my heart that if I want to survive in this chaotic world, any indecision is unacceptable.

She even understood the meaning of the phrase "Kill the Virgin Mary first when the end of the world comes."

Therefore, she naturally would not blame Shen Yan, but was just worried that he would be in danger. After all, in this doomsday, he was her only relative.

This is also her only motivation to live. If it weren't for Xiaoyan, she would probably have jumped off the building and committed suicide last night.

"Aunt Qing, do you need my help?"

Shen Yan said while standing at the kitchen door.

"No, breakfast is simple. Oh, Xiaoyan, go get all the basins in the house and fill them with water."

Xia Wanqing said without even turning her head: "The tap water might be cut off at any time, and I'm afraid that the water source will be full of zombies and pollute the water."

Aunt Qing understands it so thoroughly.

Apparently she had learned a lot about survival last night.

"Ok."

Shen Yan nodded, went to the bathroom, and started filling the basins with water one by one.

Aunt Qing has so many basins, it feels like there are at least a dozen, and they are all very clean, without any dust at all.

But, why is the shape of this pot so weird?

It's oval in shape, but the edges are intentionally wide, as if it needs to be placed on something to be used.

Shen Yan suddenly saw the toilet next to him. The basin, both in shape and size, seemed to fit perfectly there.

Shen Yan: “.”

He suddenly seemed to understand something, and then he couldn't help but sniff it secretly with a red face.

Don't get me wrong, he's just curious, not a pervert!

What a pity, it’s too clean and has no smell at all.

cough.

Ignoring this basin, after filling all the basins with water, Shen Yan prepared to go out.

But at this moment, he discovered that there was a basin at the bottom of the pool, which he had not seen just now.

He didn't think too much about it. He bent down to take out the basin and prepared to get the water.

But with a flip of his wrist, a silky and smooth ball rolled into his hand.

When I took a closer look, I realized that this was not a ball, but a small piece of cloth with silk lace.

Although the small piece of cloth was rolled up into a ball, a faint trace of white could be seen.
"Oh My God!"

Feeling the moist and silky touch on his fingertips, Shen Yan's heart was moved. Could this be what Aunt Qing wore yesterday?

After hesitating for a moment, he couldn't help but pinch it carefully.

Don’t even mention the feeling of nervousness and excitement!

However, at this moment, Aunt Qing suddenly poked her head in from outside the door: "Have you got the water? The meal is ready, come quickly."

I was only halfway through my sentence.

I saw Shen Yan holding his little piece of cloth.

Xia Wanqing's face suddenly turned red.

It was not until then that she remembered that she felt too uncomfortable wearing it yesterday, so she secretly hid it when Xiaoyan was not paying attention. Now she asked Xiaoyan to use the basin to collect water.

Oh, it's so embarrassing!

If there was a crack in the ground at this moment, the older single woman, gentle aunt Xia Wanqing, would definitely crawl into it without hesitation.

"Aunt Qing, it's really not true, please don't misunderstand me!"

Shen Yan was startled.

I quickly threw the small piece of cloth into the washing machine as if it were a conditioned reflex.

Ah, it’s over. Aunt Qing won’t think he is a pervert, right?

"Aunt Qing, it's not what you think. I just wanted to get some water."

However, it would have been better if he didn't explain. The more he explained, the redder Xia Wanqing's face became.

He glared at him fiercely, said nothing more, and turned and left.

Shen Yan was extremely nervous.

But I had no choice but to bite the bullet and follow him out of the bathroom.

Aunt Qing is a great cook, but she can't cook without ingredients. Breakfast is just a bowl of plain noodles and two poached eggs.

"We don't have much food left. We have to save it. Eat quickly."

Walking to the dining table, Shen Yan secretly glanced at Aunt Qing. There was no expression on her charming face, and it was impossible to tell whether she was happy or angry.

"Well, once it's safer outside, I'll find a way to search for supplies."

Even if they were very frugal, the food they had in stock would only last them for another half a month at most.

Moreover, people cannot eat only rice and noodles. If they lack intake of other nutrients, problems will arise sooner or later.

"Ah."

Aunt Qing nodded slightly and said nothing more.

He feels a bit aloof, as if he is intentionally distancing himself from the two of them.

But after a moment, she silently picked up the poached egg in her bowl and gave it to Shen Yan.

"Aunt Qing."

"eat fast."

"Oh"

Shen Yan didn't refuse again.

Anyway, with the cheat, he would be able to find enough supplies sooner or later, and Aunt Qing wouldn't have to be so frugal anymore.

But then again, what exactly is this main quest?

The Riddler system is such a fucking scam!
Killing people is useless, so how about killing zombies?
Or does he need to collect enough supplies to complete it?

Shen Yan really wants to try it now.

After all, the sooner the system is activated, the safer he and Aunt Qing will be.

But after not sleeping for a whole night, he was really sleepy now and needed to recover some energy.

Otherwise, he was afraid that he would be in poor condition and slow to react, which would cause trouble if he encountered danger.

"Aunt Qing, I'm done eating."

"Well, you haven't slept all night, go to bed."

Xia Wanqing still had no expression on her face.

But she actually only slept for an hour or two last night.

Now that the outside environment is so dangerous, it is impossible for them all to rest, so she decided to wait until Shen Yan fell asleep and then stand guard herself.

"If there's any danger, just call me, Aunt Qing."

Shen Yan is still naked and covered with a blanket.

As he said that, he walked to the sofa and lay down with his legs curled up.

Although Aunt Qing is rich, her sofa is a bit short because her living room is small.

Shen Yan is 1.8 meters tall, and he can't even straighten his legs when he lies on it.

Xia Wanqing is a very careful woman.

She naturally noticed this, hesitated for a moment, pursed her lips and said, "Go to sleep in my aunt's bedroom."

Go, go to the bedroom and sleep?

Shen Yan was stunned.

He used to come to Aunt Qing's house often.

But he rarely even entered her bedroom, let alone slept in her bed.

My God, this happiness comes so suddenly!
Aunt Qing added: "Go ahead. You don't want to disturb me by not getting enough rest, do you?"

Shen Yan: “.”

I happily went to Aunt Qing's bedroom.

Shen Yan sniffed subconsciously. There was a unique fragrance in Aunt Qing's bedroom, which was unique to a woman's boudoir.

Although the area is not large, it is kept clean. The wardrobe, bedside table, and even the windowsill are all wiped clean.

The bed was covered with a silk summer quilt. Shen Yan crawled in naked and could even feel her body temperature which had just been left.

So happy!

From this point of view, there doesn't seem to be anything wrong with the end of the world?
I sniffed the scent left on the pillow and quilt by Aunt Qing, which was pure and elegant, like the scent of daffodils.

Shen Yan gradually closed his eyes and fell into a very sweet sleep.
