While slashing zombies, Li Su thought back to when the male lead made his first appearance. It seemed to be near the university town, right? On the male lead, Jiang Fang’s birthday, he and his girlfriend came out to spend the night together. The zombie virus broke out and the end of the world came. The two fell into a coma one after another.
She estimated that, by this time, Jiang Fang should have woken up!
Suddenly, Li Su saw in an alley not far away, ‘long black hair’ was using fire-type abilities to deal with zombies with difficulty. Her ability likely awakened not that long ago since she was not very skilled. She couldn’t stand it when she saw it. ‘Long black hair’ almost got bitten by zombies several times.
Li Su pondered for a while, then hurried over. It was always a good thing to make more friends who had abilities!
With the help of Li Su, ‘long black hair‘ finally got out of trouble. The two avoided a convenience store. The items in the convenience store had already been taken, and some children’s milk was left out. Li Su put the milk into her space.
“Is older sister a space abilities user? I thought my elder sister was a power-type abilities user!” Long black hair said excitedly. “Older sister is so good!”
Li Su smiled and didn’t speak. She picked up a bottle of mineral water left on the shelf, opened the bottle cap, and handed it behind her. “Okay, Yaoyao, it’s safe now. Are you thirsty? Would you like a drink? Are you hungry? Should mother give you some bread?”
Wang Yao opened her eyes, took the mineral water, and took a few sips. “Mum, I’m not hungry!”
Although Wang Yao said that she was not hungry, Li Su still took the bread from the space. When she saw the envious expression of ‘long black hair’, Li Su took out another one and handed it to the other party.
“Thank you, older sister. Is she your daughter? So cute! My name is Jiang Xiaoya and I am a fire-type ability user. I just awakened my ability, so I’m not very proficient!” Although ‘long black hair’ was very hungry, she did not eat the bread, but merely packed it away.
Jiang Xiaoya… This name sounded familiar. Li Su stared at the other party and thought.
Jiang Xiaoya said, a little embarrassedly, “My boyfriend still has a fever. I want to bring him bread. Older sister, do you have water in your space?” She also had a fever and woke up as an abilities user. But Jiang Fang was still in a coma, and she was a little worried. In such a situation, Jiang Fang may be an abilities user, or he may be infected with the zombie virus.
But until the last moment, Jiang Xiaoya didn’t want to give up on Jiang Fang.
“Yes, I still have antipyretics. Let’s go together!” Li Su already remembered who Jiang Xiaoya was. Wasn’t she Jiang Fang’s first girlfriend? It was said that she was the one who died because of the male lead and so had always lived in the male lead’s memory! It really took no effort at all to find her.
Jiang Xiaoya was excited at first, then hesitated. “Older sister, my boyfriend’s situation is a bit special. I was in a coma with him. I woke up first and awakened my powers, but my boyfriend didn’t wake up. I’m afraid …”
“Don’t be afraid! I have this.” Li Su raised the Tang knife.
Jiang Xiaoya smiled bitterly. That was fine. If Jiang Fang really turned into a zombie, it was better to end him from the beginning rather than for him to kill others or for him to die by the hands of others in the future! She couldn’t do it. With this older sister here, maybe…
She just hoped Jiang Fang was fine. Even if he didn’t awaken with an ability, it doesn’t matter. As long as he was fine…
“Alright then, older sister, I’ll take you there.” Jiang Xiaoya said. “I don’t know what your name is?”
“My name is Li Su. This is my daughter. Her name is Wang Yao. I couldn’t get along with her father, so I ran away with my daughter, and then this happened suddenly. Fortunately, I’ve read a few doomsday books before and I have some ideas, so I made some preparations. Otherwise, we mother and daughter…” Li Su laughed at herself.
Jiang Xiaoya was really a very kind person. After hearing this, she stopped asking questions. Everyone had their own past. Instead, she changed the subject and introduced herself. “Older sister already knows my name. My boyfriend’s name is Jiang Fang. We are both students of X University and we have been together for two years. It was his birthday a few days ago. We went out to play, and the result…”
Speaking of this, Jiang Xiaoya sighed.
Li Su also sighed. “It should be fine!”
“Hopefully!” Jiang Xiaoya said.
The two walked across several streets and encountered several clothing stores on the way. Li Su couldn’t help but stuff a few thick jackets and down jackets into the space.
Jiang Xiaoya was a little envious. Li Su smiled and said, “You can also pick a few pieces for your boyfriend. The end of the world is here and the weather is unpredictable. It’s always better to prepare more.”
Jiang Xiaoya’s eyes lit up. She could infer the meaning of Li Su’s words. “Thank you, older sister!” Her older sister took care of her like this, so she had to take good care of her in the future, as well as Little Wang Yao.
Jiang Xiaoya quickly went to pick out some jackets and down jackets for herself and Jiang Fang. Li Su took them and put them into the space.
“How big is older sister’s space? How many things can it hold? What does it look like? Is it like a pocket space?” Jiang Xiaoya was also a little naive, and she didn’t feel that it was something that shouldn’t be discussed at the first meeting.
Li Su smiled. “It’s not very big, maybe eighty square meters!”
Jiang Xiaoya was also used to it. She had a good understanding of money. Her parents were divorced, and they each had a family. The only way to express love for their daughter was to give money. As soon as she was admitted to university, her parents bought her a 140 sqm suite, so she did not feel that 80 square meters was very big.
“Can older sister’s space be expanded if your ability level increases?” Jiang Xiaoya discussed enthusiastically.
Li Su was embarrassed. Her space was indeed very large compared to other power users. In the early days of the end of the world, the space of space ability users was generally only four or five square meters. However, as the ability level increased, the space would also expand. The largest could be more than 200 square meters. But she was not a true abilities user.
A few zombies swayed by the side of the road. Li Su immediately drew her knife and greeted them.
Seeing this, Jiang Xiaoya also quickly activated her abilities and chased after them.
They didn’t expect that the zombies would emerge in an endless stream. After one wave was repelled, another wave came. After a long time, the two women felt powerless.
“Xiaoya!” A man’s voice called out. Then, a lightning ball exploded beside Jiang Xiaoya, repelling the zombies beside her.
Jiang Xiaoya was overjoyed, “A-Fang!”
Li Su was also very surprised. The male lead was here!
With the addition of Jiang Fang, the zombies were quickly driven away, and the three of them retreated. At this time, a lot of hands suddenly stretched out from the upstairs windows on both sides of the street. “Let’s leave together. I’ll give you money. I have a lot of money!”
Jiang Fang, who survived the catastrophe, hugged Jiang Xiaoya, full of joy. He didn’t pay any attention to the surrounding situation. Li Su also carefully asked Wang Yao to stay behind her and ignored them.
“Hurry up and get in the car. Let’s get out of here first.” After Jiang Fang woke up, he found that Jiang Xiaoya was not there. He then saw Jiang Xiaoya’s message on the phone screen, saying that she went out to find food and would be back soon. She also mentioned that she had awakened with a fire ability and that she could protect herself, so Jiang Fang shouldn’t worry.
But how could Jiang Fang not be worried! There was food in his space, and Xiaoya left without him. Xiaoya had a simple temperament, and the apocalypse was so dangerous. What if there was an accident?! At this time, Jiang Fang regretted that he did not tell Xiaoya about his space.
So, he came out in a hurry.
Fortunately, he found Xiaoya quickly.
Jiang Xiaoya was also very happy to see Jiang Fang. She took out the bread in her pocket and then looked at Li Su again. “Older sister!”
Li Su understood, took out a bottle of water from the space and handed it to Jiang Xiaoya. She took out two more rice balls. “Don’t eat the bread. Xiaoya should take this.”
Jiang Fang looked at Jiang Xiaoya, who had fed rice balls and water to him, and looked at her with a smile on his face. His heart softened into a ball. “I’m not hungry. You eat first!”
Jiang Xiaoya shook her head and insisted on feeding Jiang Fang. “You eat first. You are a man and you get hungry quickly! There is still more in older sister’s space! Let me tell you, I am not familiar with the use of my abilities. If it wasn’t for older sister just now, I would have been eaten by zombies. Older sister is amazing. She is a space ability user. Older sister is so strong, and she can chop off a zombie’s head with a knife!”
Jiang Xiaoya’s words were scattered, but Jiang Fang kept listening with a smile at the corner of his mouth. He obviously liked listening to her.
Li Su untied her daughter from behind, took out milk and small cakes from the space, and gave them to her. Hearing this, she couldn’t help but look up at the two people in front of them. Their relationship was so good, but Jiang Fang still had so many women in the end.
She didn’t know if Jiang Fang would find so many women in this life. If so, how would Jiang Xiaoya feel? Would Jiang Fang have the heart to live up to such a good girl?
Jiang Fang raised his head and looked at Li Su from the rearview mirror. The eyes of the two happened to meet. Jiang Fang nodded at her. “Thank you for saving my Xiaoya.”
“It wasn’t much.” The car was a little bumpy. Li Su held her daughter on her lap. Wang Yao still held up the cake and milk. Li Su took a bite of each, and Wang Yao continued eating. Li Su smiled and touched Wang Yao’s hair.
Jiang Fang and Jiang Xiaoya also saw this scene. Jiang Xiaoya couldn’t help but turn around in the front passenger seat and pinch Wang Yao’s face. “Good child!”
“What are your next plans? Do you have a place to go? For example, do you have someone you’re looking for?” Jiang Fang asked tentatively.
Li Su shook her head. “I don’t know either. I’ll just take one step at a time!”
Jiang Fang was going to ask again, but Jiang Xiaoya signalled at him not to. “Older sister, since you have nowhere to go, why don’t you come with us?! We are all ability users, A-Fang seems to be a thunder element, and I am a fire element. Older sister, you are a space ability user. Having a few of us together… A-Fang, what do you think?”
Jiang Fang smiled and looked at Jiang Xiaoya. “If you want to, then it’s fine!” In fact, the things in his space were enough to build a new kingdom. He didn’t need other space abilities at all. It was just that she saved Xiaoya, and had a child. It was fine to go together!
“Older sister, are you okay?” Jiang Xiaoya turned around and asked.
Li Su smiled. She was asking for nothing. “Of course I am willing. It’s good that you don’t dislike us and consider us a burden.”
“How could that be? Older sister, you are a space ability user! How wonderful!” Jiang Xiaoya smiled happily.
