Shen Nanxing grinned and spoke confidently.

However, Lin Xiyao saw a hint of cunning in his eyes.

What does this boy want to do by taking her home?

However, there was no better choice now, it was getting dark, and she really needed a place to rest.

Soon, the black car drove into a luxurious villa.

At the luxurious entrance, stood two rows of maids in uniform.

When they saw Shen Nanxing getting out of the car, the servants immediately bent down and said respectfully: "Welcome home, young master."

I've only seen scenes like this on TV.

Lin Xiyao was really shocked.

"Go and clean up a guest room."

Shen Nanxing gave the order with a serious face, and his aura suddenly became majestic, completely different from the little brat just now.

"Yes."

Walking into the villa, Lin Xiyao's attention was instantly attracted.

Magnificent.

Crystal chandeliers sparkle like stars in the night sky, soft carpets, leather sofas, jade statues, elegant murals, and unique decorations...

Such a luxurious living room seems like a prosperous pre-apocalyptic world, and is incompatible with the wasteland where Lin Xiyao lives.

"Are you hungry? Let's eat first."

Shen Nanxing asked with a smile and took Lin Xiyao to the restaurant.

Soon, the table was filled with exquisite and sumptuous food.

Braised chicken, pickled fish, sweet and sour spareribs, stewed pig's trotters, cold cucumber salad, stir-fried bean sprouts...

Looking at so many dishes, Lin Xiyao's eyes were full of shock.

She has been living in the wasteland all this time, with tree roots, leaves, wild fruits and nutrient solution.

I have never seen even a rotten vegetable leaf, and everything edible is poisonous.

In such an environment, Lin Xiyao thought, even the rich people in the safe zone wouldn’t have an easy life, right?

But don't want to...

One is heaven and the other is hell.

"Sister, please eat more."

At the dining table, Shen Nanxing kept putting food into Lin Xiyao's bowl.

Lin Xiyao found the food tasteless and felt upset.

So, it’s not that there are no resources in the wasteland era, but that the rich have monopolized the resources.

The poor people work hard, facing the earth and digging for food in the soil and snatching food from the mouths of wild beasts, just to survive.

The rich people in the safe zone live in luxury and enjoy the best resources in the world.

Why do they?

"Nanxing, is the car we are riding in a petrol truck?"

"No."

"That's a tram."

"Because of limited electricity resources, the car can't go far, but my uncle is researching solar energy."

"Soon, we'll be able to drive through the forest."

A hint of pride unconsciously appeared on Shen Nanxing's face, and he didn't notice Lin Xiyao's depressed mood at all.

"What about this meat?"

"Eat with confidence."

"These are all fresh ingredients. There is a breeding base in the safe zone."

“Chickens, ducks, and even fish are now being raised on a large scale.”

"..."

Hearing this, Lin Xiyao fell silent.

Large-scale breeding shows that there is no shortage of poultry here, but the poor still cannot afford it.

Poultry - only for the rich and powerful.

Horse riding.

These days are really frustrating.

She fought hard to kill the strange beast, but she was reluctant to even eat a piece of its meat.

The rich people here, on the other hand, eat with their mouths drooling.

Lin Xiyao felt mixed emotions after the meal. After the meal, Shen Nanxing took her to the guest room.

There are floor-to-ceiling windows, a sofa, a TV, a refrigerator, a soft big bed, and a plate of dragon fruit on the coffee table.

The bathroom is fully equipped with a bathtub, shower and toiletries.

Even this bathroom is bigger than her house.

I feel a little envious and jealous.

If it was before the end of the world, it would be fine, but now it is a wasteland, and she has traveled through time and space and become a person at the bottom of society.

This gap was a little hard for her to accept.

"Sister, you take a rest first. Call me if you need anything. I live next door."

Shen Nanxing said this very considerately and then closed the door.

Lin Xiyao calmed down and took a comfortable bath.

This is already the case.

Enjoy it when you should.

There is no use in thinking too much.

After all, this is the rule of this world.

After taking a shower, Lin Xiyao drank another bottle of antidote and began to regulate her internal energy.

Her soul power had not recovered much, but fortunately, the poison in her body had been almost eliminated.

A night's rest would get her back to peak form.

"Knock knock knock."

An hour later, there was a knock on the door.

Shen Nanxing invited her to the library. Lin Xiyao thought about it and followed him.

She also wanted to see how many books were collected in the villa.

Library.

An ancient plaque.

Pushing open the door, I saw a room that was about the same size as the living room.

Bright lights.

There are rows of bookshelves in the room, and the shelves are full of books.

Lin Xiyao turned around, feeling both amused and annoyed.

There seem to be a lot of books here, but the so-called library is actually a recycling station for used books.

There are all kinds of books.

Comics, novels, review materials, papers, doodled Chinese textbooks, and even the four great classics are not complete.

In short.

Except for the books that Shen’s grandmother brought with her, the rest were picked up from the garbage dump.

Who would have thought that sixty years later, a tattered book could become an antique?

"How about it, sister, there are a lot of books here, right?"

Lin Xiyao sat on the sofa and nodded politely.

Indeed... a lot.

"small star."

"Who is this……"

Just then, an old woman with white hair walked in with a cane.

When she saw Lin Xiyao, a hint of shock flashed in her eyes.

"Grandma, this is my friend, her name is Lin Xiyao."

Shen Nanxing immediately went up to her and supported the old lady.

Lin Xiyao stood up awkwardly and looked at the old man curiously.

Silver hair, wrinkles, sagging skin, hunched body, but full of energy.

Like all elderly people, time has left its own unique mark on them.

But when she looked closely at the old man's features, Lin Xiyao felt inexplicably familiar.

Seen before?

no.

"Oh, that's a nice name."

"Little girl, sit down."

The old lady said this with a kind face.

"Great grandmother, she is the one who saved me in the forest."

Then, Shen Nanxing moved closer to the old man and said specifically.

The library is the place the old woman cherishes most, and she never lets outsiders enter.

He specifically informed the old man in advance because he hoped that the old man would not kick her out because Lin Xiyao saved his life.

The old lady laughed.

"Little girl, how about the books here?"

The old lady asked as if she was showing off.

Lin Xiyao: "..."

Come again.

"Quite a lot."

She really didn't want to reply again and again, against her will.

There are indeed many books here, but compared with the library, they are just a drop in the ocean.

"Actually, there aren't many books here."

"Sixty years ago, any university library would have been more spectacular than this one."

The old lady spoke slowly.

Lin Xiyao was startled: "Old lady, how old are you this year?"

"Eighty."

In other words, the old lady in front of him was a survivor of the apocalypse, and she also knew what the world was like sixty years ago.

Lin Xiyao instantly felt that the old man in front of her became much friendlier.

Half fellow villager.

They all come from the same world, but the old man has experienced more than her.

"Sixty years ago, I studied at the xx Police Academy."

"You look a lot like a classmate of mine."

When Lin Xiyao heard the old man's whispers, she was petrified on the spot.

"Your name……"

"Shen Jia."
