Life in the collapsed world from scratch

Staring blankly at the young man in front of her who was gently rubbing her head, after a long time, she pursed her lips and nodded lightly: "Mmm...".

Chapter 520 IX The True Hope in My Heart

"Cheng Xi, what is that?"

"Ferris wheel, an amusement facility that people can sit on and go sightseeing."

"Where's that? What's that cart?"

"The stalls selling snacks will sell some cheap local specialties... Would you like some?"

"There, it looks like there are a lot of people, what are they doing?"

"There is a shopping mall over there, a place that sells all kinds of goods. Because there are so many shops, there are naturally more people going to buy them."

"Oh……"

Along the way, the girl's lively voice and cute appearance attracted the attention of many passers-by, but she didn't care...or she didn't have the energy to care, but stood next to Cheng Xi, looking at Cheng Xi with sparkling eyes. Looking at the scene of the surrounding city, his eyes are full of freshness and curiosity, showing a completely different vitality and spirit from just now.

Because of Cheng Xi's existence, she no longer worried that her blood-sucking impulse would hurt other people, and she could naturally go to the bustling crowds that could only be seen from a distance before.

For her, this is the first time she has had such close contact with a human city. Everything is so novel and strange, but so beautiful.

She held Cheng Xi's hand tightly, and looked closely at all the surrounding scenes, as if unwilling to miss the slightest detail, and wanted to firmly engrave this moment in her heart.

But in the end, she still set her sights on the young man beside her.

"...〃〃..."

"What's wrong?" Seeing that she suddenly fell silent, Cheng Xi asked suspiciously, "Are you tired?"

The girl shook her head lightly, and after hesitating for a moment, she finally said, "Let's... get out of here."

Since it was her request, Cheng Xi naturally did not refuse, gently took her hand, invoked the power of space, and brought the two of them back to the rooftop of the hotel where they were staying.

After getting away from the hustle and bustle of the city center, the hustle and bustle around suddenly disappeared and became much quieter.The evening breeze blows gently, making people feel that their hearts can't help but calm down.

The girl gazed at the brightly lit city night scene in the distance, with an incomprehensible light shining in her eyes.

Cheng Xi didn't bother her, but quietly looked at the girl under the moonlight.The bright moonlight fell on her body, reflecting her snow-like long hair, as if covered with a layer of hazy tulle, making it appear illusory and unreal.

——Under the moonlight and the night, you are the third kind of beauty.

Looking at the beautiful and lovely girl in front of her like a princess under the moon, such a sentence inexplicably appeared in Cheng Xi's mind.

"...Thank you, Cheng Xi."

As if satisfied, the girl withdrew her gaze, looked at Cheng Xi, pursed her lips and said aloud.

"Isn't it too early to say thank you?" Cheng Xi interrupted her.

"This city is so big, there are still many places I haven't visited... Amusement park, Humu restaurant, game center, and the shopping mall with many people, don't you want to go and see it?"

The girl's face was obviously moved, but she finally shook her head and said, "No... that's enough."

If she is too greedy, she is afraid that she will not be able to bear to leave in the end...

So

"Just like this, seeing the current state of the world, those are not described in books, but real cities, lights, crowds... This is enough, I am already very satisfied."

Such words were on the lips, but from the girl's soft murmur, she couldn't hear the meaning of satisfaction at all.

and……

".々 Such a request can't be called a 'wish'."

Cheng Xi's words stunned the girl slightly.

Not...wish?

"The so-called wish should be more beautiful, it brings together the most sincere and pure hope, and reflects the most true expectation in your heart"

Because of this, people will feel the joy and satisfaction from the heart after it is realized.

"So, I don't agree with such a simple wish that can be realized." Cheng Xi looked into the girl's eyes and continued seriously: "Since I promised you that you will realize your wish, I will definitely try my best To do it, this kind of perfunctory (Li Zhao's) expectation cannot pass the test on my side."

"..."

What, self-serving negation of other people's wishes.

The girl's depressed mood was washed away, she raised her head and looked at the boy in front of her dissatisfiedly, thinking so in her heart.

But... Chi...

The girl pursed her lips, showing a complicated expression.

Is the hope deep in your heart...

After being silent for a long time, she shook her head slightly and took a deep breath.

"...If that's the case." As if she had made a decision, the girl under the moonlight stretched out her hand to Cheng Xi:

"Can you, please, accompany me...accompany Teresa, and dance together?".

Chapter 530 A True Existence

Cheng Xi is not very good at dancing.

Although he had been to many high-end occasions and participated in many necessary dance parties when he was anti-entropy, at that time he basically only haunted the dining table, trying to reduce his sense of existence, and being a practical A real cook, even politely declines some invitations to dance together.

Therefore, although it cannot be said that he can't dance at all, it is true that he is not very proficient.

But it doesn't matter, the girl is also not very good at dancing.

"I am a puppet made by my grandfather..."

Under the moonlight, the girl stepped on green and slightly clumsy steps, and whispered her past to Cheng Xi.

"Except for a 570-room room full of books like a cage, my grandfather didn't give me anything... I can only follow my grandfather's wish and drink my sister's blood every half a month, because this is the purpose of my existence."

"Other than that, my life has no meaning."

The girl's voice was very soft and somewhat low,

"But even so, I have a wish..."

I want to take a look at the outside world, to see the world depicted in that book.

"My sister helped me escape, but I escaped from her again."

The girl raised her head, unknowingly revealing more and more emotions in her words

"Her tenderness makes me depend on, but also makes me feel uneasy. The kind of tenderness that is taken for granted and does not ask for anything in return makes me wonder if I am really needed?"

Peace of mind and uneasiness, uneasiness and heart-warming... as if my feelings do not belong to me, illusory and unreal

"It's like, like me..." she said softly, closing her eyes gently

She was created as a puppet, and she is illusory to this world. If so, then the emotions born in her heart must also be unreal...

"Don't close your eyes."

Just when she was thinking so in her heart, a boy's voice suddenly came from her ear, which made her slightly startled, and subconsciously opened her eyes to look at him in surprise

Looking at the girl's crystal clear red eyes, Cheng Xi said in a soft voice, "The pupil is the only part of the body that sees light. If you close your eyes, your soul will be plunged into darkness."

"So...don't close your eyes."

Cheng Xi gently put his hand on the girl's face, looked into her eyes and continued (bdff):

"If you can see the light, it means that your soul really exists. If you can be touched, it means that your body really exists. If you are worried about not being affirmed by anyone, then I will affirm your existence."

The girl stared blankly at the boy in front of her, the light in her eyes flickered slightly, revealing her restless heart at the moment

Affirm... my existence?

"Under the moon..."

The boy's words came to her ear again, pulling her mind back, revealing a puzzled expression

Cheng Xi gently stroked the girl's face, and explained softly: "This is the last name I gave to you who only have a first name."

Surname... surname?

"A person's name is composed of a first name and a surname. The complete name contains the expectations and wishes of the person who named you, and it is the proof of a person's complete existence... Therefore, being given a complete name entrusts me and your sister The expected you are no longer an illusory existence."

"You are you, the moonlight and I can prove that you who are dancing with me under the moonlight at this moment are more real than anyone else."

"Name...?"

The girl murmured softly, feeling like she was dreaming in a trance

Is it possible for me to actually exist?

She felt a little sore in her heart, the corners of her eyes gradually became moist, and her vision began to gradually blur

Only at this moment did she realize that all along, she had actually expected someone to say such things to her, to affirm her existence like this...

"so……"

Cheng Xi stretched out his hand to her, smiled and continued, "Can you, who exists at this moment, please accompany me to finish this dance?"

The girl took a deep breath and gently placed her hand on his palm

"Um……".

Chapter 530 Armed dolls also need overtime pay

Canghai City under the sun showed a different prosperity from that at night.

The colorful neon lights disappeared, replaced by the blue sky, the morning sunlight passed through the gaps between the tall buildings, sprinkled in every corner of the city, and reflected on the passing pedestrians and vehicles.

Prosperous, busy, full of vigor and vitality... This is the portrayal of the city during the day.

Cheng Xi stood on the balcony, looking at the familiar yet unfamiliar city in front of him, silently wondering what to think.

After a long time, he breathed a sigh of relief, turned his gaze back, and returned to the room. After carefully pulling the curtains tightly, his eyes fell on the petite figure who was sleeping soundly on the bed in the room.

How should I put it, maybe it was because of the emotional ups and downs last night, and because I was too tired from playing, or because vampires have such a routine. In short, the girl who was still energetic at night became sleepy in the morning , Drowsily fell asleep in his arms.

But thinking about it, it's actually quite normal. When I was an ordinary human being, I stayed up all night every night, and the next morning was almost like this, right?
