Chapter 1221 - One Month Left
Chapter 1221: One Month Left
“How are you feeling now? Are you feeling any discomfort?” Mrs. Dong sat on the end of the bed and looked at her.
Lin Wenwen shook her head and said, “I’m fine. I’m just a little tired.”
“Take some rest then. We’ll leave,” Mr. Dong glanced at Dong Lijia and Mrs. Dong, then said to Lin Wenwen with a smile. Mrs. Dong stood up and walked out of the room together with Dong Lijia before closing the door from outside.
Lin Wenwen sighed as she lay down and closed her eyes to rest. This time, she didn’t have a dream. She slept for a few nice hours and woke up at dinner time. Then, she energetically got off the bed to look for food.
Dong Xinxin hadn’t written down the names of the people needed to be avoided in the future. Her family decided to ask the soul who was in Dong Xinxin’s body now. She might be able to ask her about it and help her write down the name list.
“Oh… Um, we don’t know your name yet. After all, you’re not Xinxin.” Since Dong Xinxin’s family learned what had happened to her, the atmosphere between Lin Wenwen and them had been a little weird. They had been trying their best to avoid talking to each other.
They ate at the same table, but rarely talked to each other, and hardly called each other. Only Dong Lijia would call Lin Wenwen ‘Oi’ or Xinxin sometimes. But, he felt as if he was calling another girl whose name was also Xinxin instead of his little sister when he did that.
Lin Wenwen looked at Mrs. Dong who was looking at her and said with a grin, “Call me Wen. I’m only a few years older than Xinxin.”
“Oh, okay, Wen, eh… We heard that Xinxin sometimes talks to you. Can you ask her for a name list? She might tell it to you. She fell asleep before she could give us the name list.” With a humble smile, Mrs. Dong asked for Lin Wenwen’s help.
“Sure, but I think she’s resting now. I think she’ll give me the name list once she wakes up, if it’s important,” Lin Wenwen nodded.
In the next few days, Dong Lijia started dividing the supplies up and shipping them out of the city to store in different places. Meanwhile, Mr. Dong sent out his men to look for the people who had their names and features and home addresses on the list that Dong Lijia provided.
Lin Wenwen continued exercising Dong Xinxin’s body. Many clothes which were tight before had now become loose as she was losing weight.
This time, Dong Xinxin rested for a few days. When she woke up, she asked Lin Wenwen to write down a name list for her father.
“I guess these people were meant to bring bad luck to you and your family.” After learning about the name list, Lin Wenwen gave a sigh. Being able to foresee the future was great. Dong Xinxin at least knew what would happen to her and her family in the next seven years, and was able to avoid ending up like she did the last time.
‘I can only say that without the law, the world would be ruled by the primitive jungle law again. Nature doesn’t restrain the desires of living beings. Humans have the strongest desires among all. For survival, no one would care about morality anymore,’ said Dong Xinxin with a cold voice.
Another month later, when there was only one month left, Lin Wenwen managed to lose ten kilograms for Dong Xinxin. She was still short, but no longer looking like a ball. She looked much smaller in size than before. She was much healthier than before, and her muscles had grown strong.
During the past month, Dong Xinxin woke up in her own body three times, and the span of time that she could stay awake grew longer every time. However, every time she fell asleep again, she would sleep for days before waking up in Lin Wenwen’s mind.
That day, Lin Wenwen ran into Dong Lijia when she came out of the gym. Seeing the speechless look on his face, she couldn’t help but say to him, “Did you visit those people again? Why did you make yourself unhappy? Are you dumb?”
She was talking about the people who had been forcibly brought to Dong Family by Mr. Dong. Those people would, of course, not treat Dong Family people friendly, as they kidnapped them without telling them anything. They would figure it out when the Apocalypse happened. By that time, they would thank Dong Family people for kidnapping them.
Those people were the ones who helped Dong Xinxin after the apocalypse but didn’t end well.
There were only about ten of them. The number was small, so Dong Xinxin decided to gather them before the apocalypse. First, those people could be protected in that way, and second, they would become helpful.
“I just wanted to comfort them. I don’t want them to get too emotional. But, none of them listened to me. Apart from limiting their freedom, I’m actually quite nice to them, right?” Dong Lijia complained.
Lin Wenwen looked at him, prepared to turn and leave. But suddenly, a picture with Dong Lijia in it flashed across her mind. In the picture, he was shooting a herd of weird creatures with a strange gun.
She stood walking and looked at Dong Lijia’s back as she fell into deep thoughts.
Those weird creatures looked very much like the ones that she had seen before in her mind. What kind of gun was he holding? Why wasn’t he using his superpower? She had no idea when would that happen. In the picture, he looked rather practiced with the gun, unlike a young man who newly survived in the post-apocalyptic era.
Was that an image from seven years later? At least, that kind of gun didn’t emerge within the seven years that Lin Wenwen had experienced.
“What’s wrong?” While walking, Dong Lijia noticed that Lin Wenwen wasn’t moving, but was staring at the back of his head.
“Wen? Oi? Stop staring at me. Aren’t we going for the meal or not?” As Lin Wenwen didn’t react, Dong Lijia called her again.
Lin Wenwen heard him, so she turned down her mouth corners and said, “You are not calling me Wen. I’m three years older than you are. Do you know that?”
“Who cares. Stay here if you want,” Dong Lijia carelessly waved at her, then turned and left.
Lin Wenwen was irritated. She felt so annoyed and she wanted to punch somebody so much.
…
While she was waiting for the apocalypse to happen, and for Dong Xinxin to recover fully and send her back to the future, Lin Qiao in All Beings Base made Xie Dong and the other zombies go into the lake nakedly one after another, and then upgraded them. Xie Dong successfully entered level-seven, while Jingyan, Yan Xiao, Liuli, and the others broke into level-six.
During the day time, Lin Qiao needed up upgrade the high-leveled zombies and also deal with the work in the base, because Lin Feng had already gone to Sea City Base. Apart from those, she also needed to spare some energy to look after her son and suppress the dark energy inside Yuan Tianxing’s body.
Without Yuan Tianxing’s help, she was as busy as a bee.
