Dawn After Darkness of Doom

Chapter 23 Late Night Conversation

In the middle of the night, the rain stopped a lot, and the soft sound of the rain made it easier to fall into a deep sleep. Qi Min was covered with a quilt and lay on the sofa, lying on his side, closing his eyes lightly as if he was in a deep sleep.

In the darkness, someone was standing on the edge of the sofa, staring down at his cute sleeping face. The person looked at him for a long time, and then slowly raised a hand towards him...

"Who do you think will die sooner between the two of us?"

The sudden sound in the living room made that person a little stiff, and his outstretched hand stopped in mid-air, not daring to move. The person who was supposed to be asleep had already opened his eyes, and his bright black eyes were staring at her.

"What are you talking about? I just want to pull the quilt for you." After a long pause, the standing person spoke. The gentle voice was that of Xia Linli who was injured by them during the day.

Qi Min lifted the quilt and sat up, with his hands on his crossed legs, the faint light coming in from the window hit his side face, making his round baby face a bit cold, "There is no one else now, You can speak without this face."

"Heh..." The woman let out a chuckle, and sat down directly on the coffee table behind her, crossed her legs, propped her elbows on her knees and supported her chin, "You are as unreasonable as before, and you are so cute .”

"Don't talk nonsense, you'd better leave as soon as possible and keep a distance from my friends." Qi Min ignored her teasing, in the dark environment, his eyes were extraordinarily bright, and when he looked at her, he was a little seductive.

Xia Linli brushed the long hair that fell in front of her back to her shoulders, her fingers were long and beautiful, "Don't be so fierce, I don't plan to do anything to them, it's just that I'm bored by myself, I just want to find some partners."

"Don't you have 'partners'?" Qi Min said those two words a little emphatically, reminding her of what she told them during the day, "Wouldn't it be better to be with them."

"You don't think I'm lying to you, do you?" Xia Linli seemed to be hurt, she raised her hand to her chest, "Heaven and earth conscience, I was really with a group of people before, but..."

She stopped here, raised her hand in front of her, and shook it slowly, looking soft and harmless, "Those stupid men wanted to drug me, so I killed them all."

Qi Min's expression sank, he reached out and grabbed her hand that was raised in mid-air, and tightened his strength, her bones even made a slight sound, "If you dare to shoot my friend, I will crush your head."

"As I said, I won't do anything to them. Those two people are very interesting. I killed people only because they provoked me." Xia Linli's wrist was tightly clenched by him, but she didn't even frown, " You know, I hate stinky men who are interested in sex the most."

"It's best to remember what you said." Qi Min waved her arm away, pulled the quilt and lay down on the sofa again, "If you insist on following, then hide yourself tightly."

After hearing what he said, Xia Linli looked down at her legs wrapped under the trousers, and showed an inexplicable smile, "Yes, otherwise I will scare them. I really envy you, so perfect."

"There's nothing to envy." Qi Min put his hands under his head, staring at the ceiling in a daze, "They're all equally ugly."

She was stunned for a moment, then covered her lips with her hands and chuckled a few times, not knowing why she was happy, "As he once said, those people are really stupid, they ruined their most perfect works with their own hands , it is a pity."

"Have you met him?" Hearing that she mentioned that person, Qi Min turned his head to look at her, unable to see clearly in the darkness.

"We met once at the beginning, but we separated after that, and we never saw him again. I don't know where he is now." Xia Linli raised her eyebrows at him with her hand on her chin, "What? You have something to do with him? That pervert seems to be very interested in you all the time, you don't have any ulterior relationship, do you?"

"I'm just asking casually. He always feels dangerous to me." Qi Min lowered his eyes to recall something, then raised his eyes to her again, "What is the relationship between the ulterior motives?"

His immature face, coupled with this serious question, made Xia Linli couldn't help laughing again, "I even forgot that you were a tiger when you were fighting, but you are still a little milk cat in normal times. I can’t say such profound things to you.”

"Crack", the living room brightened up, Fangran walked out from the corridor of the room, his drowsy sleeping face woke up when he saw the two of them, and walked over in surprise.

"Why don't you go to bed so late? The lights are not on."

He was woken up by the urge to urinate, and the master bedroom with toilet was given to the only woman, so he went out to use the bathroom, and when he got up from the bed, he heard voices in the living room, and turned on the light when he got out of the room .

Xia Linli stood up when she saw him coming, and the smile on her face became gentle again, "I came out to get water when I was thirsty, and I chatted with Qi Min when I saw that he was awake, did it wake you up?"

"No, no, it's hard to wake me up when I'm asleep. I came out to go to the toilet." Fangran waved his hand, indicating that it had nothing to do with them. He was quite surprised that these two people would get together. The atmosphere between them is very strange, is it his illusion?

"That's good. I just happened to be going to bed too. Good night." Xia Linli nodded to him, then turned her head to look at Qi Min, who had sat up when Fangran came over, twitched the corners of her lips slightly, and left the living room to go back to the room.

Watching her go away, Fangran turned back and stroked Qi Min's hair, "Are you sleeping comfortably here? Otherwise, you should go back to the room with me to sleep, the bed is so big that we won't be crowded."

When he allocated the room, he planned to let the other party sleep with him, but he said he wanted to sleep on the sofa. Fangran, who thought he was disgusted, proposed to let him sleep in the room and sleep on the sofa by himself, but he was flatly rejected. He couldn't argue again and again. I couldn't beat it again and again, so I had to compromise in the end.

"It's okay, I like to sleep on the sofa, and I feel safe in a small space." Qi Min doesn't care about these things, he has never been picky about his living environment, and living in some places is already very good.

After persuading him again to no avail, Fangran sighed helplessly. With such a well-behaved and obedient appearance, why is he not a younger brother but an older brother?His heart really hurts, and he really wants to raise him.

The person in front of him stood there and started to be dazed. Qi Min thought he was sleepy because he didn't get enough sleep, so he kindly reminded him, "Go to the toilet and go to sleep, it's getting late."

Fangran came back to his senses, and instantly remembered why he got up. The feeling that his bladder was going to explode came over him, so he turned around and hurriedly went to the bathroom.

After he came out after going to the toilet, he told Qi Min to go in and find him if he couldn't sleep well, then he turned off the light and went back to the room.

The living room returned to darkness again. Qi Min lay back on the sofa, listening to the "patter" of rain outside the window, and closed his eyes gently. Are they all washed?

After a night of rain, there was some cool dampness in the air. After a good night's sleep, the few people recovered well. They simply ate something and went out to look for supplies.

As a doctor, what Fangran wants to collect is not only food, but also various medicines. The medicine box he managed to complete before fell in that villa. The house is not complete, and there is no medicine for Qi Min last time. vulnerary.

When several people were waiting for the elevator, the man who lived opposite them opened the door, looked at them and said hesitantly, "Are you going out to find something?"

"That's right, Brother Lin, you want to go out too?" Fangran's enthusiasm played a role again at this time, "It's dangerous for you to go alone, why don't you come with us."

"No, no, those living dead are too scary, I can't kill them, that..." The man waved his hands quickly, then held them together and rubbed them together, "Can you help us bring some back? Don't worry, I It’s not for nothing, I’ll buy it for money.”

As soon as he said this, everyone's expressions became subtle. What's the difference between taking money for nothing and wanting to trade with money at this time?Everyone knows that the living dead are scary, so why should others have to face it for him because he is afraid.

"This..." Fangran hesitantly turned his attention to other people. Although he was willing to help others and would help others if he could, he would not casually distribute the hard-earned food to others.

Seeing that they were all silent, it was obvious that they didn't want to, and the man continued: "I didn't want to trouble you, but there is really not much food at home. Even if we adults don't eat it, the children have to eat it. There is really no way." I just beg you, it just so happens that you are going out, so it will be easy."

Easy thing?It's easy to say, the more food they take, the more risk they have to bear. He feels sorry for the children and they can understand, but it's not right to wait for nothing. They really treat others as fools!

"Brother Lin, the food we can bring back is limited, barely enough for us to eat. If your family is really short of food, you can come with us. It would be better to bring it back yourself." It's not good to refuse him directly , Shen Tuo spoke very euphemistically.

"I'm different from you young people. I don't react so quickly. Those living dead can eat people. It's not worth losing your life. If you help the big brother, just take care of the children and just give us a little bit. "The man refused to go out after biting him to death. He clasped his hands together and bowed, with a begging look on his face.

"You may die if you go out, and we are the same. We risk our lives to bring back food, and we will not distribute it to others." Qi Min's neck was wrapped in a scarf, half of his face was hidden inside, and he looked soft. He looks very innocent, but his words are not so polite.

"Hey, what are you talking about, kid? I said I'll give you the money. How can you call him Baina?" The man looked him up and down, and frowned when he saw that he was young but had a sharp tone.

With a sound of "ding", the elevator arrived at their floor, Qi Min looked away from him, and stepped into the elevator, "Since you think that waste paper is so useful, use it to buy food from the living dead Let's see if they are willing to sell it to you."

Shen Tuo raised his hand and touched his nose to cover up the corners of his mouth that he couldn't help but twitch. This kid is usually reticent, but he is quite venomous at critical moments. It really suits his appetite. He looks apologetic and doesn't look good on his face. The man waved his hand, "The child is not sensible, I will tell him later, don't worry about Brother Lin, then we will leave first."

Seeing that they were all on the elevator, Fangran smiled awkwardly and hurriedly followed. He was the worst at rejecting others, so he didn't want to stay and face him.

The elevator door closed slowly, and Shen Tuo burst out laughing. He hung his hands on Qi Min's shoulders and rubbed his hair, "Xiao Min is fine, his face is so wonderful."

"Little wild cat." Xia Linli leaned against the elevator wall, with a smile in her beautiful eyes, her voice was so low that no one noticed.

Fangran laughed a few times, then restrained himself slightly, with a sad expression on his face, "I used to think Brother Lin was a pretty good person, how could he say such selfish things?"

Shen Tuo also stopped laughing, and raised his hand to pat him on the shoulder. When facing survival, everyone is selfish. This is instinct. They can't blame him for doing something wrong, but they don't have to accommodate this kind of selfishness.

After they left, the man returned home with a sullen face. His wife hugged her daughter and sat on the sofa. Seeing him come back, she quickly greeted him, "How is it? Did they agree?"

"Don't mention it." The man walked around her angrily and sat down on the sofa, picked up pure water and drank it, "These people are not very old, so they are not easy to fool, and they are unwilling to help with such a little help. I also feel a little guilty for taking their things, a waste of feelings!"

"Those two young people looked very enthusiastic before, but I didn't expect to be so indifferent!" The woman also lowered her face, full of unhappiness, "I saw it through the cat's eye last night. Their food was carried up in boxes. Well, what's the matter with us?!"

The man paused while drinking water, turned his eyes and thought about something, so he put down the water bottle and pinched their daughter's face, "Good baby, Dad will bring you something delicious later."
