When the apocalypse comes, salted fish will only make bubbles

Li Ying's second layer of barrier was much simpler. It mainly consisted of continuously setting up fog barriers inside the tiankeng, with one layer set up at every certain height until the entire tiankeng was filled with thick fog.

Looking at the tiankeng shrouded in fog, Li Ying clapped his hands in relief: "That's about it, I hope it can last a little longer!"

Pei Chonglin looked around and was more confident than Li Ying: "It should be fine. After tonight, maybe we can see some changes tomorrow."

Li Ying nodded in agreement: "Well, to be on the safe side, we need to set up a fence around the sinkhole to prevent anyone from accidentally entering."

His fog barrier cannot materialize yet. Although it can hide the huge tiankeng visually, there is no guarantee that someone might accidentally break in and suffer eternal regret.

If the expected effect can be achieved, the number of zombies besieging the desert will decrease, and they will always have to cross the desert as planned.

The uninhabited area is still a must-go route. When there are too many people, there will always be people who cannot be taken care of. If something happens, it is inevitable that he will be linked to it.

Therefore, Li Ying felt that since he was going to do it, he had to do it carefully.

Pei Chonglin immediately put his hand on the back of his head and comforted him, "Don't worry, I'll arrange someone to do it."

After thinking about it, Li Ying finally broke free and rolled up his sleeves to continue working: "Then I will use a barrier to shield the tiankeng, and you can have people set up a fence outside the barrier, which will be an extra layer of protection."

Seeing this, Pei Chonglin smiled dotingly: "My wife is still thoughtful."

When Li Ying heard this, she waited for him unceremoniously: "You come again!"

Why does he have to be the wife? Can’t he be the husband?

Pei Chonglin simply held him in his arms, rolled up his sleeves for him, and coaxed him with kind words:

"Xiaoying, we have to get out of here eventually. I said I would take you back to the capital to meet my family, and I would also marry you. You have to get used to this name."

Li Ying: “…” The more you talk, the further away you are from each other!

He poked the person behind him with his elbow unceremoniously: "You, you think too far ahead."

There is no time for dating, but he wants to jump straight into marriage. This person is too imaginative.

The point is that he is so busy, where does he find the time to think about things that have nothing to do with the present?

Oh, forget it, Li Ying quickly withdrew his doubts. The other person has psychic powers, which is equivalent to ten brains of his. Of course he thinks more and more far-sightedly.

Pei Chonglin knocked his chin directly into Li Ying's shoulder socket, and then spoke like a spoiled child: "For a lifelong event, of course I have to consider the long-term, Xiaoying, there is no room for you to regret."

Hearing this, Li Ying's heart suddenly skipped a beat, and he couldn't help but call out, "Pei Chonglin."

"Ah."

Pursing her lips, Li Ying finally mustered up the courage to say, "I have no relatives and am alone, but you have parents and a large family. Aren't you afraid that they will disapprove of what we are doing?"

Pei Chonglin is the only son in the family. He has a large family behind him and he is the only heir to the Pei family in the imperial capital.

No matter how chaotic the world is, no matter whether this apocalypse can end or not, Pei Chonglin's identity will not change, and his responsibilities will not change.

Li Ying thought that his parents would probably want him to find a girl of equal status to marry and have children, and then have the family business inherit his inheritance!

At least that's what Tang Shisen thought at the beginning, so he made a promise to Feng Shiyu.

Of course, Pei Chonglin is different from Tang Shisen, but Li Ying doesn’t dare to think about what his family thinks.

Thinking of this, he hesitated for a moment, but couldn't help but muttered softly: "After all, I am a man, I can't..."

He really couldn't open his mouth to say the word "give birth".

But he didn't say anything. Pei Chonglin had already guessed his thoughts. He gently turned the man to face him, and then said to Li Ying in a serious face:

"Xiaoying, I don't want to have children, nor do I need to continue the family line. I just want you to stay with me until I grow old."

After a pause, he continued, "And you can rest assured that my parents are very open-minded. They just hope that I can find someone I truly love to spend the rest of my life with, and they have never asked me to satisfy their wishes."

Seeing that Li Ying still looked worried, Pei Chonglin didn't mind talking more about his parents to comfort him:

"The two of them, one in the military and the other in business, were very busy. If they hadn't gotten pregnant and given birth to me, they would have planned to be DINKs for the rest of their lives.

If they really want to have a large family and pass on the family line, they can just have a few more children. There's no need to pin all their hopes on me."

"But……"

Before Li Ying could continue, Pei Chonglin interrupted him and said, "No buts. Xiaoying, I believe my parents will like you very much when they see you, and they are not boring and mean old antiques. I believe that when you see them, you will put aside all your doubts."

"really?"

"It's true."

Having said so much, Pei Chonglin simply continued to speak from the heart:

"Xiaoying, don't feel any pressure. If my mother knew that I brought her a savior daughter-in-law, she would be very happy. In other words, I should be the one who is worried. Tell me, what have I done to deserve to marry you? I will be very grateful if you don't despise me."

After hearing what he said, Li Ying curled her lips immediately: "Look at what you said, as if I am so arrogant."

Pei Chonglin immediately shook his head and denied it: "No, I just want to say that you are too good, so good that I feel I am not worthy of you, Xiaoying, if you really feel reluctant..."

Unexpectedly, he was interrupted by Li Ying halfway through his words: "Hey! You are getting more and more outrageous! I tell you, if you keep thinking about yourself like this, I will ignore you."

After thinking about it, he felt it was necessary to state his own attitude:

"Pei Chonglin, I'm not stupid. I have my own judgment and I know what kind of relationship I need. I know whether you are worthy of my love. Even if I am a little reluctant, we can't develop to this point."

To put it bluntly, they are in love with each other and are heading for each other, and it has nothing to do with their status, or ability.

If we have to talk about whether he is worthy or not at this moment, then he was really nothing at the beginning, yet they still came to this point.

After hearing what Li Ying said, Pei Chonglin suddenly breathed a sigh of relief, and his heart softened.

He just held her tightly in his arms, and then gave Li Ying a pious kiss on her smooth forehead: "Okay, I won't say anything. I will definitely love you well in the future."

Li Ying raised his head and looked at the person in front of him with a pair of star-like eyes. Although the light was not very bright, he could clearly see himself in the other person's eyes.

When the love reached its peak, Li Ying tiptoed and gave him a gentle kiss: "Pei Chonglin, it's great to meet you!"

"I'm glad to have met you, too."

In between breaths, Pei Chonglin responded affectionately, and then deepened the kiss.

Under the high and empty night sky, they hugged and kissed each other, responding to each other's love with practical actions.

The end of the world may last for a long time, but they are fearless, because they have each other, hope to sustain them, and a common beautiful vision...
