I sell Coke in the doomsday

"That's it?"

"That's it? This is the plan you came up with? This is so stupid!"

Ajie was a little surprised, as if he had expected that I would agree with this plan.

"No, do you think this plan is bad?"

Hearing this, I rolled my eyes at Ajie. I really didn't know why Ajie had such an idea. Why did he think that he could win people's hearts by watching TV?

Just when I was at a loss for words, Ajie looked at my crazy expression, and after a moment's pause, a hint of understanding flashed in his eyes.

Ajie's expression straightened, he put his hand on my shoulder and said in a deep voice.

"I forgot one thing."

I stopped for a moment, looked at Ajie's serious expression, and asked him.

"Forgot something?"

Ajie raised his eyebrows, his expression became complicated, and after hesitating for a moment, he still spoke softly.

"Because, no matter what you think or do, you are no longer one of us."

A chill suddenly rose up and moved all over my body, making my hands and feet numb.

"TV, Coke, and old DVDs may be something within your reach."

“But for those of us who have watched it, we haven’t seen the lights come on since 10 years ago.”

"Televisions, refrigerators, and people walking around the streets are all very distant things now."

"So, for us, if one day, a light comes on here and a TV makes sound, we can see the past sealed on the screen."

"I think... a lot of people will remember a lot of things."

I listened to Ajie's words quietly, but my body was shaking slightly and I felt a little dazed.

After a long silence, I raised my face and showed a helpless smile.

"Is that so? Then I'll take care of everything."

"TV, DVD player, DVDs, I will definitely bring them all to you."

Hearing this, Ajie scratched his head and smiled embarrassedly.

"What I just said doesn't seem very friendly to you."

I shrugged slightly, spread my hands, and spoke softly.

"It's no big deal. It's not the first time I've made this mistake."

"Besides, what others say is much more unpleasant than what you say."

Ajie smiled when he heard this and then said to me.

"There's nothing wrong with that. At least I won't be suspicious of someone like you."

Chapter 131 Contradiction (I)

"Stop talking so much. Where's my pickup truck?"

"Why do you keep thinking about your old pickup truck?"

I raised my fist, punched Ajie on the shoulder, and laughed.

"You know shit, my pickup truck is the best car I have."

Ajie sneered, but then walked in front and began to lead us.

I followed closely behind her. Tongtong tugged at the corner of my clothes, still looking timid. When I looked back, she smiled sweetly at me.

I looked at Tongtong's smiling face and didn't say anything. I just smiled back and turned my head away again, my eyes becoming dim.

Is it because I am the one involved that is confused? Did I really miss something?

Ajie parked my pickup truck between several big trees. The body of the truck was covered with dead leaves and looked very shabby.

I walked up to the pickup truck, wiped the dust off the window, and saw the keys on the seat through the dirty glass. Seeing this, I finally breathed a sigh of relief.

I pulled the door open with force, took out the jeep key and threw it to Ajie behind me.

"Take the key and follow me to the ancient city base to pick someone up."

Ajie took the car keys, looked at me strangely and asked puzzledly.

"To pick someone up? To pick up who?"

I let Tongtong sit in the passenger seat first, then turned to look at Ajie and said.

"When I came back this time, I brought two construction engineers with me. The original plan was to build one in each base."

"Come with me to the ancient city stronghold and see who is willing to come to this stronghold."

When Ajie heard this, a hint of joy flashed across his brows. He opened the car door and sat in the back seat, muttering softly.

"I wish you could pick up such a talent every time you go out."

I smiled and said nothing, instead I started my broken pickup truck and drove out of the stronghold.

There was an old smell in the pickup truck, and the cheap steering wheel was not very comfortable to hold in the hand.

But all this makes me feel inexplicably at ease.

Compared to that jeep that doesn't belong to me, this old and broken pickup truck is more suitable for me.

The jeep quickly drove outside the stronghold. I stopped the car, asked Ajie to get out, drove the jeep parked at the door, and then headed towards the ancient city stronghold.

On the plain, two cars, one new and one old, were driving at high speed, stirring up the yellow sand.

I held the steering wheel and glanced at Tongtong in the passenger seat from time to time. After seeing other people, I didn't talk much to Tongtong, and I didn't know if Tongtong felt neglected.

Tongtong no longer seemed to be interested in the scenery outside the window. She just sat in her seat and looked at me. A different kind of light flashed in her red pupils.

Neither happy nor sad, just a kind of understanding that I can't understand.

It was as if Tongtong understood something that I didn’t know.

"Tongtong."

I held the steering wheel and called Tongtong's name softly, and Tongtong pursed her lips and responded softly.

"Ah."

I hesitated for a moment, and after thinking about it, I couldn't help but ask Tongtong.

"Tongtong, what do you think of that stronghold just now?"

Upon hearing this, Tongtong stretched out her two little hands, gestured very hard, and expressed her meaning concisely.

"It's big."

I smiled helplessly. This evaluation is not wrong, but it is not too brief. However, this is also in line with Tongtong's style.

"What do you think of the people there?"

After asking this question, I turned to look at Tongtong, but Tongtong looked confused and seemed not to know how to answer this question.

After a moment of silence, I had to change my angle and asked Tongtong again.

"Then...Tongtong, do you like them?"

This time, Tongtong did not hesitate, shook her head gently and said.

"dislike."

I frowned slightly and asked in a low voice.

"So you hate them?"

Tongtong blinked her eyes and moved her lips slightly, but she fell into strange silence.

I was a little stunned and looked at Tongtong, but saw that Tongtong's little hands were slightly clenched, pinching the cushion on the seat, and looking straight at me.

No answer. No matter how long I waited, Tongtong never answered the question.

Just silence is already an answer.

My breathing paused for a few seconds, and then I asked Tongtong with some uneasiness.

"Tongtong, do you...hate me too?"

Hearing this, Tongtong smiled sweetly, put her little hand on my palm, and replied softly.

"like."

I breathed a sigh of relief, but when I came to my senses, I wanted to laugh at myself again.

How can I make Tongtong like someone she meets for the first time?

Besides... even if Tongtong hates humans other than me, my only choice is to prevent Tongtong from meeting these people.

Apart from this, I have no other choice.

Feeling the warmth of Tongtong's little hand, I stopped thinking about it and concentrated on driving the pickup truck towards the ancient city stronghold.

After an hour's journey, Ajie and I finally parked the pickup truck in front of the gate of the ancient city.

When Tongtong and I got out of the car, Ajie had already gotten out of the car before us. He kicked the gate of the stronghold and shouted loudly.

"Wake up! You lazy bastards!"

I couldn't help laughing at Ajie's childish behavior, but Tongtong didn't show any emotion.

As Ajie shouted, the gate of the stronghold slowly opened. To my relief, there were not so many people this time, only a few.

The trio of Wang Zixuan, Gao Lian, and Li Yi, as well as Sun Zheng and Song Mingtao's family who I brought here yesterday.

After seeing those people clearly, I couldn't help but frown slightly. Sun Zheng and Song Mingtao's eyes were bloodshot, and it seemed that they didn't have a good time yesterday.

Gao Lian and a few others were the first to come forward, but soon their eyes fell on Tongtong behind me. Li Yi, who had been silent all the time, seemed to light up his eyes at this moment.

Gao Lian touched his head and didn't say hello to Ajie. After glancing at Tongtong behind me, he asked softly with some curiosity.

"Who is this?"

I looked back at Tongtong behind me. Tongtong didn’t like this scene very much, especially Li Yi’s eyes. For the first time, obvious disgust appeared in her eyes.

I pinched Tongtong's little hand to comfort her, then answered with a smile, looking normal.

"Her name is Tongtong, and she is my wife."

As I finished speaking, I clearly felt Tongtong pinching my palm and Rouran's body pressed against my back.

This silly girl, it turns out that he understands what his wife means?

Hearing this, everyone had different expressions. Gao Lian raised his eyebrows repeatedly, winked at me, and gave me a thumbs up. However, Wang Zixuan, the little girl, kept her eyes on Ajie and didn't pay any attention to us at all.

There is definitely something wrong with these two people.

However, Li Yi, who was standing at the end, moved slightly at this moment and disappeared from my sight, so I couldn't see his expression clearly.

I withdrew my gaze and looked at Sun Zheng and Song Mingtao who seemed a little tired, and greeted them.

"Why aren't you two talking? How was your night?"

Hearing this, Sun Zheng and Song Mingtao also came forward. Song Mingtao was more reserved and just smiled without saying anything, while Sun Zheng was more straightforward. After a wry smile, he came close to me and whispered.

"I say, this stronghold doesn't seem to welcome us very much."

My eyes darkened, I patted Sun Zheng's shoulder and replied in a low voice.

"Don't worry, I'll take care of everything."

After saying that, I looked at Gao Lian and Li Yi as usual and said with a smile on my face.

"By the way, I came here today because I have something to tell you."

Gao Lian was about to speak when he heard this, but the moment his lips moved slightly, Li Yi took a step forward and spoke to me.

"Why are you so polite? You are the great benefactor of our ancient city stronghold."

"That being said, if we can do it, we'll do our best."

You’re welcome… I don’t think you’re welcome…

As soon as Li Yi said this, I could clearly feel that I was not from the ancient city stronghold, but just a person who had a favor to the ancient city.
