When Peng Haoyu saw her, he didnât care at all, and turned around with a smile, âYeah, sister Qianxun.â He reached out and put his arm around Gan Xiaodanâs shoulder, âI havenât had time to tell you. Xiaodan and I, hehe, we are together.â
Chu Qianxun said coldly, âI remember the first time I saw you, there was a woman by your side.â
âHey, how can it be counted? I was just playing. Since I met Xiaodan and saw such a pure and gentle girl, I have come to know the truth.â He hugged Gan Xiaodanâs shoulder hard, âIsnât it, Xiaodan?â
Gan Xiaodan avoided Chu Qianxunâs sight. She didnât think she had done anything wrong, but when she faced Chu Qianxun, she panicked.
Chu Qianxun glanced at her and passed them without saying a word.
Back in the house, there was no light, Chu Qianxun sat on the sofa and took off her muddy boots.
Gan Xiaodan followed in and closed the door slowly.
âQianxun!â She stopped, standing in the hallway, âAre you angry?â
Chu Qianxun sat in the darkness without looking back.
âYou shouldnât just tell outsiders about us. Peng Haoyu is not a good person.â
Gan Xiaodan said in a low voice, âHaoyu is very good.â
Chu Qianxun was very disgusted in her heart. She tried her best to show her limited patience, âXiaodan, since you want to stay here, you canât count on others. When I leave, you will have no good end with such a man.â
Gan Xiaodanâs eyes turned red at once, âBut Iâm not like you! I donât know anything. How do I live in such a messy world like thisâ¦?â
Chu Qianxun knew that it didnât make sense.
She stood up and walked toward the bedroom, âTomorrow we will leave. We will leave the food in the house for you, so you can live by yourself.â
âQianxun!â Gan Xiaodan stopped her, âYes, I didnât dare to leave the base. But did you want to take this opportunity to leave me, the burden?â
She became mad, âYou were not like this in the past. You were the gentlest one in the dormitory. The relationship between the two of us has always been very good. Why did you become so cold when the apocalypse came?â
Chu Qianxun paused in her footsteps, and soon disappeared into the doorway of the bedroom.
Only Gan Xiaodanâs sorrowful cry was left in the dark living room.
Chu Qianxun seemed to see her past self in Gan Xiaodan.
That incompetent and weak woman who couldnât stand up on her own.
She was fortunate that she was separated from her past self, even though it was a bloody painful process.
She hyoped that Gan Xiaodan would understand what she said one day.
Chu Qianxun slept until it was bright before getting up.
The Egersis had a pair of sharp forelimbs, which were good materials for processing weapons.
Chu Qianxun put them on the market and sold them in exchange for some necessary living supplies.
She, Gao Yan and Jiang Chengzhu went back to the rescue stationâs ward, planning to pick up Ye Peitian, and say goodbye to Feng Junlei and his daughter.
Feng Junlei came out to see them off and Fu Yingyu pushed Ye Peitian out of the ward in a wheelchair.
âWhere is Qianqian?â Chu Qianxun asked Feng Junlei.
âIn the treatment room, Dean Ma said that he would perform a comprehensive examination on her personally today.â Feng Junlei scratched his head embarrassedly, âI didnât tell her you are leaving, Iâm afraid she wonât be able to accept it for a while.â
He also thanked Fu Yingyu, who also went out to see them off, âI also want to thank Miss Fu and Dean Ma for their care. Thanks to your special care for Qianqian, otherwise, in the current environment, how could Qianqian get such good treatment?â
Fu Yingyu said with a smile, âWhat are you talking about? Qianqian and Peitian are the whole baseâs heroes. We are just doing our best.â
Chu Qianxun pulled Feng Junlei aside and quietly stuffed a first-order crystal core.
Feng Junlei was moved in his heart and refused to accept it, âSister Qianxun, keep this for yourself. You took care of us along the way. I really donât know how to say it. If it wasnât for Qianqian, I really wanted to continue following you.â
âTake it, Brother Feng, take care.â
Chu Qianxun didnât have too much emotion.
In the apocalypse days, the meeting and separation of friends was normal, and everyone had their own choice. She was very pleased to be able to meet her former friends again and take a journey.
Chu Qianxun turned around, trying to take Ye Peitianâs wheelchair from Fu Yingyu.
âIâm not leaving with you,â Ye Peitian said suddenly.
âWhat?â Chu Qianxun didnât react.
***
Until Chu Qianxun got into the car and left the base, she hadnât figured out why Ye Peitian suddenly changed his mind.
Jiang Chengzhu looked through the rearview mirror at Fu Yingyu, who was standing outside the door of the rescue station and kept waving goodbye to them, and Ye Peitian who was silent in the wheelchair.
âIs the reason why Brother Ye didnât go with us is that he is hâking up with the nurse?â
Gao Yan, who was driving, patted his head, âWhat are you saying when you are so young?â
Chu Qianxun sat in the back of the truck box, looking at the man sitting in the wheelchair silently. His figure became more blurred in the yellow sand raised by the truck.
She felt that she really didnât know Ye Peitian well. They obviously had a very harmonious conversation the previous night.
Chu Qianxun didnât know what caused him to completely change his attitude overnight.
She saw Fu Yingyu bend down in the distance, as if saying something in Ye Peitianâs ear, the two of them went back to the white and bright building.
That was also good. It was much safer and more stable in the base than in the wild. He broke his legs. It was also a good thing to choose to take a good rest in such an environment. Chu Qianxun thought.
