I'm Hoarding for the Apocalypse

Du Yue thought about it seriously and said to Xia Ju, “Don’t worry, Shen Teng probably won’t be deceived. He should be a very rational person.”

“Yes.” He Xing nodded as well. “He’s been wandering in troubled times for many years, so he must have some brains.”

Xia Ju pursed her lips. “I don’t think so. Some people who look smart usually turn into fools when they’re in love! Don’t misunderstand, I’m not mocking you two. However, based on my experience of watching dozens of TV shows, there are quite a few people like this.”

Du Yue looked at Xia Ju and wondered how many TV shows she had watched. How did she know so much about love on the blue planet? But no matter what, the three of them only chatted casually and did not really mention this matter to Shen Teng. They pretended not to know anything, but they did not expect that after less than two days, Shen Teng would come and confess to them first.

“If the three of you are not busy today, come to my house for dinner. I want to introduce you to someone.” Shen Teng’s voice came from the walkie-talkie. It was a little different from his usual bold voice and sounded much gentler. Du Yue could not help but sigh at the greatness of love. It could actually make a tough man so gentle.

The three of them indeed had nothing urgent to do, so they immediately agreed to Shen Teng’s invitation. Thinking that Shen Teng’s chickens would not be able to lay eggs for a while, Du Yue specially packed 20 eggs with her. After locking the door of the RV and the gate of the courtyard, and adjusting the current of the power grid to the maximum, Du Yue and the other two walked toward Shen Teng with ease.

Du Yue was quite happy the moment she stepped out of the door. Ever since Zou Bo and his group came to the grassland, they had never left the courtyard for the sake of peace. Although they would occasionally go to the basement for a walk, it felt completely different from walking outdoors. Even if Du Yue was a person who liked to stay at home, she would still feel bored after not going out for so long.

Outside the courtyard, as usual, there were still many people digging holes under the cover of plucking grass. They could not see them clearly through the binoculars before, but now that they walked closer, they could see them much clearer.

When Du Yue’s calm gaze swept past those people, many of them subconsciously lowered their heads, looking guilty. Du Yue did not intend to expose them now, so she only glanced at them indifferently before withdrawing her gaze. It was not until the figures of Du Yue and the other two disappeared in front of everyone’s eyes that the stone hanging in their hearts finally fell to the ground. They did not forget to speed up their movements.

When Du Yue and the other two were in the RV, they had been very careful, afraid that the three would notice that something was wrong. Now that they knew that Du Yue and the other two had left, they dared to go all out. They thought that their actions were very careful and that Du Yue and the other two were definitely kept in the dark. However, they did not know that Du Yue and the other two had seen their every move clearly.

After walking for a distance and making sure that the people digging the hole could not hear them, Xia Ju lowered her voice and said, “Now that they’ve seen us leave, will they destroy the power grid?”

Du Yue shook her head. “I don’t think so. They’ve been living here for so long, so they must have met Zou Bo’s people before. They must have heard about the power grid. Without 100% confidence, they probably wouldn’t risk their lives.” Xia Ju continued, “So they’ll just continue digging holes, right?”

Xia Ju was clearly telling the truth, and it was also what Du Yue wanted to say. However, for some reason, when these words came out of Xia Ju’s mouth, coupled with her serious expression, Du Yue inexplicably wanted to laugh.

The two of them chatted as they walked. He Xing followed them quietly. Soon, the three of them arrived at the door of Shen Teng’s courtyard. He Xing took out the walkie-talkie and told Shen Teng that they had arrived. In less than two minutes, Shen Teng jogged over and opened the door for them. Shen Teng seemed to be in a good mood. Before he could say anything, the corners of his mouth curled up into a smile. “You guys came quite quickly. Come in. I’ve been waiting for you!”

Du Yue could not help but look at him carefully. Shen Teng usually liked to smile, but today’s smile was different from usual. Du Yue did not understand what was different at first, but she quickly realized it.. Shen Teng’s smile today was filled with the sweetness of being immersed in love! Had he really fallen in love with that woman?
