Collapse: Raising a Wife Since Childhood

"Wendy, don't you know?"

Shen Yunie turned around and saw a beautiful woman who looked to be in her twenties. The brown logistics uniform fit her body perfectly. She looked very pretty when she smiled, but now she had a cold face. He couldn't interrupt because the other party was obviously targeting Wendy.

Wendy was already used to this. She slowly stood up from the bedside with some apology in her eyes, "I just found out."

"Now that you know, Honkai users should stop coming. I need to check on the patient, so please leave for now." The woman ignored the apologies and focused her gaze on Shen Yunie. After carefully examining the good-looking boy, her tone softened a lot. "If you want to visit, please do it next time and don't stay too long."

Shen Yunie nodded. Wendy stood up behind him. She took the boy's wrist and led him out the door. Before leaving, she glanced at the woman again, "Then we'll go first. If Shen Ning's condition gets better, please tell me."

The door closed, and at the moment it closed, the two of them seemed to hear a complaining voice, "The biggest improvement is if you leave."

Shen Yunie saw a look of loneliness flash across Wendy's face, and her long eyelashes drooped down, like a pearl oyster shell opening and closing. He did not comfort her, and the girl quickly recovered and let go of his wrist.

Wendy smiled helplessly and explained, "The pet shop run by Nai was destroyed by Honkai Beasts. She had nowhere to vent her anger, so she finally put the blame on me."

Whether it was because of her or not was not important. In the current situation, even if a deadpool walked out of the town, it would be Wendy's responsibility. The girl did not explain this, she had gotten used to it a long time ago.

"The reason you became like this is because you put the blame on yourself." Shen Yunie refuted her calmly, "Shen Ning wanted you to live a better life, but you are still degrading yourself by being like this now."

"I..." Wendy looked at Shen Yunie in astonishment, her lips opening and closing, and finally she lowered her head again, "Okay, I'll listen to you. If it's not about me, I will refute it next time."

"Also, you have unknowingly developed the same character as Shen Ning. When two cowardly people become friends, the relationship is not solid. When faced with a crisis, both of them think of running away.

You are a Valkyrie, not Shen Ning without Honkai energy. If you can't protect her, then she probably chose the wrong person. The boy in Shen Ning's story will protect everyone around him. "

Perhaps it started from not being able to increase her Honkai energy, or perhaps it started from being talked about by others. Wendy put the blame on herself and cowardly apologized to others. When the blame was too much, she became numb. The girl secretly clenched her fists, "Okay, I will change all these, let me protect her!"

Shen Yunie looked at her with a scrutinizing gaze and nodded, "Other than that, I haven't seen anything abnormal for the time being. If there is anything, I will make you correct it. It's not too late now."

"It's not too late now." Wendy murmured repeatedly. She seemed to really believe that even if Shen Ning was seriously ill and his life was beginning to count down, as long as Shen Yunie said it was not too late, it really would not be too late.

The rolling LED lights on the first floor of the hospital showed that the town's cafeteria was open and everyone could go there to eat, so as to avoid the difficult life of only being allocated a small amount of food. Shen Yunie originally came to feed blood to Shen Ning, but now he was being watched and couldn't do anything.

He was about to leave and tell the others the information he had just received about Wendy, but Wendy, who was right beside him, didn't seem to want them to say goodbye.

The girl tugged at his shirt and pointed at the scrolling subtitles, "Let's go eat something, maybe you can figure out something."

After hesitating for a moment, Shen Yunie agreed. Last night, they were still distributing food, and he only ate a few bites and left them for Leah. Although the soul body can tolerate hunger, he would rather not eat himself than let Leah go hungry again.

After deciding to go to the cafeteria, Wendy did not move. She stopped where she was, looking a little embarrassed. "Can you please push me there next? If I use Honkai energy, everyone will probably hate me."

Wendy's legs are crippled because of her desire for gems. Her ankles are equipped with the same wind pressure device as Bronya, which can make people levitate in the air. Wendy is very long and the levitation distance is very small, giving people the illusion that she is standing.

"Although you are right, there is no need to feel guilty if you have not done it, but this wave of fluctuations has just stopped and everyone is still tense. It will be fine after a while."

Shen Yunie nodded and agreed. Seeing the joy on the girl's face, she pushed the wheelchair over. She bent down to turn off the device on her ankle and sat down on it. Wendy turned around and smiled at him a little embarrassedly, "It shouldn't be a problem. If you find it troublesome, I will continue to use the device."

Shen Yunie did not answer, and pushed the wheelchair to take her out of the hospital. Just as the girl said, after not using the wind pressure device, the surrounding gazes did decrease, but it was just from everyone's gaze to most people's gaze. Wendy was the absolute focus, and most of the gazes were questioning.

No Honkai energy? Is it because she created such a big disturbance before, and now she is accumulating the next one?

Even the gazes that fell on Shen Yunie were questioning. The two crossed the street, and when he passed by several people whose chest badges were broken open and had infinite symbols, he could still feel a bit of disdain. Laughing at Wendy was also laughing at him, a knight of Saint Freya.

The major branches of the Mandate of Heaven will support each other in the event of a major disaster, but this does not prevent some branches from looking down on each other. The original North American branch defected to Anti-Entropy, and the newly established North American branch looked down on Saint Freya of the Far East branch.

They felt that such an approach would lead to more casualties on the battlefield. In their eyes, Saint Freya, which protected the beautiful dreams of young girls, was a place where students could only dream. With completely different teaching methods, the North American branch sent no fewer talents to the headquarters every year than the Far East branch, which made them very proud.

The head of the Far East branch is Theresa Apokalis. Although she does not get along with Bishop Destiny on the surface, who knows whether the bishop will secretly protect his granddaughter.

"I'm sorry." Wendy said in a low voice.

"It doesn't matter. I don't care at all." Shen Yunie responded lightly. The gaze behind him had not dissipated. He turned back to look at the girls who were staring at her. As if they were intimidated by his gaze, they quickly shifted their gazes away.

"You are worthy of being the only knight in the world. When Shen Ning wakes up, I will definitely let her learn from you."

It was because of learning from Shen Yunie that Shen Ning came here. If she had been a nurse in Valkyrie, she could have lived a long time. But Shen Yunie felt that she would not regret it.

"Ah."

47. Shen Yunie’s perverse logic

Both Wendy and Shen Yunie underestimated the prejudice of the Valkyries against her. This offensive and defensive war that lasted for two weeks made all the Valkyries know Wendy, and they all understood who was the source of the fluctuations.

The Valkyries were puzzled as to why they had to continue this meaningless battle. It was obvious that everything could be solved by solving the source of the collapse. However, they never received the order to solve the source. The more battles they fought and the more people were injured, the more resentment they felt.

The town's open cafeteria is in a two-story pagoda-shaped building, which seems to be a gathering place for people who once lived here. Shen Yunie pushed Wendy in, and those resentful and doubtful gazes seemed to fall on her like dense raindrops.

Wendy looked down helplessly and put up her hair. Her pupils reflected the broken marble floor, which was shattered together. Although she had been taught a lesson by Shen Yunie, she still could not help but react to the gazes around her. These Valkyries suffered pain that they should not have suffered because of her.

Shen Yunie still turned a blind eye to those gazes. Perhaps he was unable to put himself in other people's shoes, or perhaps he had already developed a character that was not afraid of stares.

He caught a glimpse of the girl's slightly embarrassed look. He could have comforted her, but he did not. He asked calmly, "What do you want to eat? The logistics staff from all the branches are here. It feels like an exchange meeting of the world's major chefs."

"Yes, compared to Valkyries, there is no age limit for logistics personnel." Wendy's shattered pupils were restored to their original state after the topic was diverted. She looked at the people around her with admiration, "Everyone who enters the Honkai world has special skills."

The girl still wanted to maintain a good figure, so she wanted to eat very little. Shen Yunie selected the food that could fill her stomach, and asked Liya to select the food she liked to take back. Here, the staff who knew how to cook food kept making food and putting it out. Some food that was not tasty after being stored for a long time could be made on the spot.

He put his hands on the handles of the wheelchair and prepared to push Wendy over, but the girl suddenly stopped looking at him with admiration. She stopped the wheel and said weakly, "Can I not go over? Their looks are a little scary. I'm not mentally prepared yet."

Shen Yunie paused and took back his hands, "Okay."

Looking at the boy's departing back, Wendy frowned slightly. Shen Yunie, who said he wanted to help her, now looked so cold.

She quickly lowered her eyes again, unable to bear the gazes around her. It was as if she was being dragged into a quagmire. The more she struggled, the more uncomfortable she felt. She could only close her eyes and hypnotize herself, imagining that she was lying on a comfortable bed, not a quagmire that made her feel uncomfortable.

"I think it's best to comfort her." Leah held her chin and looked at Wendy, who was the focus of attention. The faces and eyes of all kinds of people around her were suspicious and disdainful, and most of them were resentful. They had already blamed Wendy for the collapse.

In this way, Wendy, with her shoulders hunched and her long, curly eyelashes trembling, looked very pitiful.

"Not for now." Shen Yunie caught a glimpse from the corner of her eye that just behind the two of them were sitting, a few girls from the North American branch had unfriendly looks. Their looks were the worst among so many pairs of eyes. Others had at most resentment, but a few girls from the North American branch had hatred, as if they had seen an enemy.

He noticed it when he first came in. Instead of taking Wendy away, he deliberately stopped in front, trying to deliberately hasten the conflict.

Whether Shen Ning can really survive is a question, so Shen Yunie has to make another preparation, which is to find someone for Wendy to rely on emotionally. Probably influenced by Kiana, he also used himself.

Liya naturally understood his thoughts and did not question him. Instead, she asked earnestly: "Yune, are you really ready to accept another girl? Like before..."

"I don't know." Shen Yunie interrupted her before she could finish. He suddenly smiled faintly, "Don't Sister Leah and Sister Ying care?"

"Yeah, we don't care, especially in that situation. So if you want to save people, it's okay to find one or two or dozens of them." Leia frowned when she was interrupted and said to him unhappily.

Leah didn't ask any more questions. Since she had said it, she really didn't know. No one could predict the future. Yu Nie's approach at this time was the most correct.

Shen Yunie came to the counter to get his food. He raised his head and looked at the woman standing behind him. She then withdrew her gaze that wanted to see through him. She sighed visibly, as if to say, how could a good knight get close to a monster?

Regardless of appearance or identity, Shen Yunie received consistent praise from so many Valkyries, until they saw Shen Yunie and Wendy walking very close, and all the praise was withdrawn. They wondered if Wendy, a Herrscher, had some ability to bewitch people.

"Thank you." After receiving the freshly prepared food, Shen Yunie thanked the woman politely.

"You're welcome..." the woman responded subconsciously. When she came to her senses, she ended her voice with a long syllable. Looking at the boy's back as he left, she couldn't help but sigh.

The two of them came here simply to eat. Shen Yunie took the food to Wendy, who had difficulty walking. Even so, she did not withdraw her gaze from the people around her. They felt that this peaceful situation was not right. The Herrscher was the most cunning creature.

Wendy felt apologetic. She poked her fork into her salad without any appetite. She looked up at the boy and whispered, "I'm sorry. It wouldn't be comfortable to eat while being watched like this, would it?"

Shen Yunie ate the bread by himself, his eyes cast on several girls from the North American branch, he said calmly, "I used to be a role similar to a tramp, walking out of the Gobi Desert, my clothes were all covered with yellow sand and I didn't have time to change. The first thing I wanted to do was drink water and eat.

It was just like now, with all the stares and everything.”

"Ah?" Wendy opened her eyes wide, "You, a homeless man?"

The news about the knight came out two years ago. Shen Yunie is two years younger than Wendy, and if you add the past, Shen Yunie started wandering at a very young age, which is even more pitiful than her. At least Wendy was taken in and raised by Emilia since she was a child.

"Just ignore it." Shen Yunie said.

His voice reached the ears of the people at the nearest table. Several Valkyries from the North American branch seemed to still be unable to tolerate it. The black-haired girl who was surrounded by them snorted coldly and kicked the corner of the table heavily.

The sound attracted all eyes. The black-haired girl stood up suddenly, her expression filled with resentment and coldness. "Ignore? You're kidding us with our lives. Are you going to ignore us now? Are the students of Saint Freya only able to dream and help monsters?"

Wendy's breathing stagnated, and she lowered her head with a look of dejection. She saw Shen Yunie, who was sitting opposite her, slowly stand up, and her heartbeat suddenly stopped.

"Who is the monster, yourself?" Shen Yunie's eyes clearly reflected the girl's angry face and trembling body, "Do you think you are still a normal person? With your slowed aging appearance, shorter lifespan and the Honkai virus in your body, you can't fit in with normal people at all.

Because you are also a Honkai Beast, and your destructive power is even stronger than those wandering Honkai Beasts outside. Do you have the right to call others monsters?"

"You insulted me?" The black-haired girl pointed at her face, her knuckles clenched until they turned white. Her pretty face was the same as those Honkai beasts' faces? She was even described as "head".

But what Shen Yunie said was also true. All the Valkyries present could not integrate into normal people. The Honkai energy in their bodies was the Honkai virus, and the bleeding would also cause ordinary people to be infected with the Honkai virus. Moreover, everyone had a desire to fight in their bones, making it impossible for them to live a normal life.

"At least I won't harm people at will."

"You will." Shen Yunie's expression was cold, and he looked at the girl with some disdain. "Anyone present will. As long as they are defined as monsters, there will always be risks. And the more extreme the emotions, the greater the danger. You are now in a completely fit situation of a monster going berserk. Killing you can eliminate this risk.

In my opinion, you are at much greater risk than she is."

Wendy, who had her head down and her eyelashes sparkling like tears, contrasted with the black-haired girl who couldn't control the anger in her tone and looked angry as if she was about to go crazy.

No one can say that Shen Yunie is wrong.

"You think she is a monster, so there is a risk to let her die. I think there is a risk to you, so I can let you die. We all kill each other, and there will be no risk until the last person is dead."

"You..." The black-haired girl's fair face gradually turned red, and she opened her mouth for a long time but couldn't say anything.

Not only her, but the dozens of Valkyries present heard it clearly. In their minds, what Shen Yunie said was perverse, and they could never be mixed up with Wendy, the Herrscher. However, they were all speechless and did not have the face to look at Wendy again.

The girl's companion tugged at her clothes, stared into Shen Yunie's eyes, and said in a loud voice: "Jana, forget it. The monster will show its fangs sooner or later, and then he will have nothing to say."

The people around agreed with this statement. They could control themselves from destroying things, but Wendy couldn't do that. Hearing this advice, the girl named Jana's face also improved a lot. She no longer wanted to eat and left quickly with a few companions.

The corner of Shen Yunie's mouth raised an imperceptible arc, and no one around looked at him anymore. Before the monster showed its fangs, this group of people probably wouldn't look at him with that kind of gaze that seemed to be pulling out cramps and bones.

He sat down with satisfaction. Wendy in front of him looked a little dazed, and her mind had not yet recovered from the pile of words. He began to eat by himself. Suddenly, there was a strawberry with cream on the empty plate, and there was a gap on the girl's small piece of cake.

Wendy blinked her cyan eyes slowly and said, "You've been talking so much, your throat must be a little dry, right? Rehydrate yourself."

"Rehydrate, there's water here." Shen Yunie looked at the water cup beside her. Can a strawberry quench thirst better than water? "I don't really like sweet things."

"That's right, but this is the best thank you gift I can give you for now." Wendy smiled and said in a low voice. There was something sparkling in her eyes, bright and beautiful. "Thank you for speaking for me. Even Shen Ning couldn't do it, but it still makes sense."

"That was something I distorted." Shen Yunie saw that after he finished speaking, Wendy's smile became stiff and she was stunned.

"Even if it's a twisted logic, you still spoke up for me. Thank you."

"Everyone present, including you, is not a monster. There is a clear difference between us and monsters. The difference is that we can think, have emotions, and do what we like." Shen Yunie explained to her while eating, "This is originally a good saying, but the girl named Jiana insisted on saying monster, so I can only agree with her."

Everyone knows a little about the truth of life. The more you experience, the more you understand. In front of the S-class Valkyrie, Jana, a girl of seventeen or eighteen, was too low-class, so she was speechless.

This is also the first good thing that Shen Yunie felt after meeting Rita.

There were so many twists and turns that Wendy couldn't keep up with the changes in her facial expressions. She suddenly felt like a child, and the other party's actions could make her happy or sad. The girl rubbed her face and decided not to change her expression. "Shen Yunie is right."

"What you said just now was very good. Who did you learn it from?"

A cold voice came, and Fu Hua, who was wearing a gray slim-fit sportswear, walked towards the two of them. Her low ponytail swayed slightly as she walked forward. She looked at Wendy, who turned her head away for some reason.

Fu Hua was in the crowd just now, but she didn't come up immediately. She just watched the boy silently as he said words that would easily anger everyone, and was also classified as a monster by him.

Shen Yunie drank the water from the cup, did not eat the strawberry, and stood up with the packed food. The two of them tacitly agreed to leave here, and Wendy could not hear the topic they talked about next.

"Are you leaving?" Wendy asked hurriedly when she saw the two were about to leave, her tone full of reluctance, "Shen Yunie, will you come tomorrow? Maybe Shen Ning will wake up tomorrow."

"I'll come again tomorrow." Shen Yunie nodded thoughtfully. He thought of something, "I'll take you back when you're full."

"It's okay, I can go back by myself. Now everyone is scared by your words, no one will care about me."

"wait for me."

Shen Yunie left the cafeteria with Fu Hua after saying this. Behind them was Wendy, who was looking at them eagerly. The girl wanted to touch the ankle, but her outstretched hand suddenly stopped in mid-air. She retracted her hand and lowered her eyes to look at the strawberry.

Since he said he would wait, she would just wait obediently. She would also keep this strawberry, as he would come back to eat it sooner or later.

48. Don’t fall in love with anyone easily

The pool was rippling with waves, reflecting the detailed silhouettes of the surrounding scenery. Two people were walking one after the other on the cobblestone road beside it.

"What you said before was all very good. You may be the first one among all of us who can gain Wendy's trust." Fu Hua's voice was very calm, and her ice-green eyes reflected the turbulent pond, showing an indescribable sense of calmness.

"Rita taught me this." Shen Yunie smiled and said, "It's very useful whether it's for comforting people or for making people speechless."

Fu Hua turned her head to look at him, her eyes seemed to doubt their relationship, but she quickly looked away and gave people a feeling of indifference.

"She told me that when I ate the food infected by Honkai, otherwise I wouldn't have eaten it so easily." Shen Yunie began to explain with a smile, "Most A-level Honkai users have experienced similar situations. Has senior sister also experienced it?"

Fu Hua was slightly startled, then nodded very slowly and said, "Yes, I have."

She didn't remember it clearly, but she vaguely remembered that she had endured even more tragic things in order to become stronger, and almost no one survived.

Breaking away from these insignificant memories, the girl continued in a cold tone: "For helping Wendy, this is more of an experiment. So far, we have not seen a Herrscher standing on the side of humans. If we succeed, we will have many possibilities, but if we fail, we will probably be ruthlessly destroyed if we encounter a Herrscher. Can we succeed?"

Shen Yunie had never thought that there was such a heavy cause and effect behind this. Now that he knew, he could only shake his head, "I don't know. I'm not the one who can calm Wendy down. I can only help her calm down."

"Then just try your best. You are the one with the highest possibility. Didn't Kiana say that people who are hopeless in friendship will have higher expectations for love?"

It was unknown whether the girl really didn't understand or was saying it on purpose. Shen Yunie frowned and looked at her seriously, "But senior sister, it's not a good thing to let someone fall in love with you casually. It's equivalent to cheating. I don't like Wendy very much, and there are people watching me."
