In a frigid apocalypse, she fed her boyfriend until he became a zombie king.

Wenren Lei widened her eyes slightly: "What is this?"

Fu Yan put him on the ground: "Night market."

Wenren Lei passed Fu Yan and saw a short street ahead with several stalls lit by warm lights, their pots steaming with hot noodles.

The stall owners were friends and elders from the compound.

Cheng Nianli nudged his shoulder from behind: "Let's go, young master. We've been setting up our stall all night and haven't had a chance to have any fun yet."

The three girls, holding the hand of the taciturn Han Mingyue, rushed straight to Grandma Chi's takoyaki stall.

Wenren Yu walked slowly past Wenren Lei, saying, "I was just a little hungry."

Gu Zhengming walked by with his hands in his pockets, saying, "Just basking in the glory of Master Wenren~"

Fu Yan walked over and took Wenren Lei's hand: "Young Master Wenren, would you like to pay the bill?"

Wenren Lei snapped out of her daze and sniffed: "Buy it."

He gripped Fu Yan's hand tightly and walked towards the short "commercial street": "I'll pay for everything."

The temporary night market used ingredients brought from the courtyard, and the food and drinks were much more abundant than those at the residents' stalls.

"Come on in!" Wen Chi poked his head out from behind the stall, soliciting customers. "Try Mr. Wen's special flavored crab legs!"

Wenren Lei glanced at him and said, "Give me a pound."

Wen Chi unceremoniously pulled out a card reader: "Ten points."

Wenren Lei shouted, "You're a swindler!"

Wen Chi deliberately fanned the fragrance in front of Wenrenlei: "Once you miss this opportunity, you won't find another one."

Wenren Lei swallowed hard and handed over the ID card: "Take it, take it."

A bowl of peeled crab legs was handed to Fu Yan, who presented it to him like a precious treasure: "Try it."

Fu Yan picked one up and took a bite: "Delicious, the ones my sweetheart buys always taste good."

Wen Chi poked his head in and said, "Hello? I made this. Why are you praising it?"

Wenren Lei glared at Fu Yan and said, "Exaggeration."

Wen Chi glanced over: "Hi? Is anyone paying attention to me?"

Wenren Lei took Fu Yan's arm and slowly walked forward: "But before, when we went to the food street, you always paid and I was responsible for eating."

Fu Yan laughed and said, "Then I'll treat you to a really good meal tonight."

Wenren Lei held her ID card between her fingers and waved it generously: "Swipe it as you like."

Wen Chi:

The stalls in the 10G courtyard offer good quality products at high prices.

After strolling around for a while, Wenren Lei finally got her wish and squeezed out all her points.

Kari's last five points were wiped out by Yi Yang's "True Love Descends, Invincible Fiery Roses".

The two sat on the base's city wall next to the night market, looking at this unique little night market.

After everyone had played and made a fuss, a large table was set up on the spot, and more than a dozen people from the courtyard gathered around it for a lively meal.

Fu Yan held the large bouquet of roses in his hands, lowered his head and gently sniffed them: "They smell good."

Wenren Lei rested her head on Fu Yan's shoulder: "This is the first time I've ever given you flowers."

Fu Yan plucked a flower and tucked it into Wenren Lei's hair: "It's very beautiful, I will cherish it."

He leaned closer, wanting to kiss Wenren Lei's lips.

Wenren Lei extended a finger and pressed it against his lips: "Wait a minute, there's one more thing I want to give you."

Fu Yan straightened up and took a slight step back: "Didn't you buy everything from this night market for me?"

Wenren Lei gently shook her head: "This kind of thing isn't available at the night market."

He took a deep breath, took out a plain ring from his pocket, and said with a blush, "Although I didn't buy this, I spent a long time picking it out in my spatial storage."

Wenren Lei handed the ring to Fu Yan: "This style, along with the one you gave me, is a pair..."

"Well……"

Before he could finish speaking, Fu Yan had already leaned down and kissed him.

Fu Yan's palm enveloped Wenren Lei's hand.

The two rings were pressed and collided in their tightly clenched hands.

Fu Yan stepped back slightly, looking at the panting Wenren Lei, and said in a low, hoarse voice, "Help me put it on."

Wenren Lei's Adam's apple bobbed heavily as she pinched the ring between her fingers, trembling slightly as she slipped it onto Fu Yan's finger.

"You're all dressed up..." Wenren Lei said softly.

Fu Yan grabbed his hand before he could pull it back, their fingers intertwined tightly.

He supported Wenren Lei by the waist and led her to the shadows behind the city wall, away from the sight of the crowd.

Wenren Lei sat on the ground with his back against the city wall, while Fu Yan knelt in front of him, shielding him from the falling snow.

"Fu Yan," Wenren Lei looked up and said softly, "You're backlit, so I can't see your face clearly."

"Tears, don't look at me."

Fu Yan leaned down and kissed him again.

Wenren Lei closed her eyes, her eyelashes trembling slightly.

A cold tear fell on his face. Wenren Lei slightly opened his eyes and looked at the handsome face so close to his.

Fu Yan...cried?

He recalled the time when Fu Yangang turned into a zombie. At that time, he could only utter some simple syllables and couldn't understand why he would cry when he was happy.

just now……

Wenren Lei closed his eyes again, and a tear slid down from the corner of his eye.

He gently bit Fu Yan.

Do you understand now? People shed tears when they are extremely happy.

On the other side, at an outdoor dining table.

Gu Zhengming sat next to Wenren Yu and diligently served him food.

Wenren Yu gave him a look that said, "I know how to use chopsticks."

Gu Zhengming picked up another chicken wing and put it on his plate: "Don't be shy."

He was very confident that this method was learned from Fu Yan and it must be correct.

Wenren Yu raised an eyebrow, picked up a chicken wing, took a bite, and said, "It's not good."

Gu Zhengming said, "I didn't do this."

Wenren Yu casually changed her tune: "The taste was not bad."

Gu Zhengming took out a cigarette and put it in his mouth: "You're just looking for trouble."

Wenren Yu took a sip of water, a smile playing on her lips: "You can't even handle this?"

Gu Zhengming stood up to light a cigarette: "Can you stand it? You don't know, it makes me feel better. Base Commander, want to have a smoke with me?"

Wenren Yu put down her water glass, stood up, and followed Gu Zhengming away from the group of people having dinner.

The two strolled slowly under the dim streetlights.

The glow from Gu Zhengming's cigarette flickered.

Wenren Yu glanced at him sideways and said, "Give it up."

Wenren Yu crossed her arms and laughed: "Aren't you going to ask why?"

Gu Zhengming tilted his head and slowly exhaled smoke: "It smells bad and it's bad for your health. It's a good thing for me that you're willing to make demands of me."

Wenren Yu didn't say anything more, slowly walked forward, looked up at the snowflakes falling from the sky, and gently exhaled a breath of white air.

"Wenren Yu," Gu Zhengming called him softly.

Wenren Yu stopped and turned around: "What...?"

He stopped speaking.

Holding a bouquet of vibrant roses, Gu Zhengming said awkwardly, "I picked these out at Yi Yang's stall. They smell nice."

Wenren Yu was slightly taken aback, then chuckled softly and reached out to take the flower: "Oh, it smells nice."

He walked away slowly, holding the flowers.

Gu Zhengming stood there stunned for a moment, then quickly caught up: "No, it's not because it smells good. I gave it to you because I like you."

The snowflakes around him were stirred up by Gu Zhengming.

Wenren Yu lowered her head and smelled the flower petals: "Oh, smells nice."

Gu Zhengming was speechless for a moment: "Don't... Sigh, I'm just bad with words."

Wenren Yu repeated slowly, "Smells good."
