273 I’ll Teach You
Now that he was wearing this pair of silver-rimmed gla.s.ses, the lenses covered the original fierceness in his eyes, and he looked a lot gentler than before. If He Xing had not mentioned his age, he could have pa.s.sed for a celebrity in his early 20s.
Seeing the undisguised look of admiration in Du Yue’s eyes, He Xing leaned forward and opened his eyes wide. He said softly, “As long as you think it looks good.”
“Yes, yes, it’s nice!”
“Since it’s so good, don’t you want to express your appreciation?”
The two of them were very close to each other. After hearing He Xing’s words, Du Yue moved forward a little more, and their clothes were instantly pressed together.
Du Yue smiled evilly and bit hard on He Xing’s lip. Before He Xing could react, Du Yue moved back. “Is that enough?”
He Xing reached out his slender fingers and rubbed his lip that Du Yue had bitten. With a faint smile, he said, “This is far from enough. Let me teach you…”
Hearing He Xing’s words, Du Yue immediately turned around, trying to avoid him. However, there was only so much s.p.a.ce in the car, so where could she run to?
…
After another day, Du Yue and He Xing began to pack their things and get ready to set off. Now that they had their gla.s.ses, their movements were much more agile. They did not need to hold a flashlight anymore. As long as they put on their gla.s.ses, they could clearly see the road. They drove directly to the roads that could be driven over. Du Yue would remove any obstacles that she could. Du Yue and He Xing would get out of the car if the car could not pa.s.s through the road, store the car in the inters.p.a.ce, and go around it.
With their gla.s.ses, they could travel much faster. It only took them 40 minutes to arrive at the outer city from the inner city. The tsunami from before did not cause much damage to the inner city, but the outer city had already been turned into ruins. The houses in the outer city were not very strong to begin with, and almost all of them had collapsed from the tsunami. The street lights in the previous shops had all disappeared. All they could see were broken street lamps and broken bricks on the ground.
Even though Du Yue had already guessed the situation in the outer city, she still had mixed feelings when she saw it with her own eyes. Even though there was a big problem with the system of the second base, at least it was built with effort. This menacing tsunami had directly destroyed this place.
Du Yue and He Xing continued to walk out and did not see a single person along the way. There was not even an animal that could breathe, let alone a human. After walking out of the base gate, the road outside was not as badly damaged. Du Yue took out the car from her inters.p.a.ce, and they started driving again.
They did not know which path the main group had taken, so they could not avoid it deliberately. They did not think too much and just took the route they had discussed. They had only been in the base for a few days, but their moods were completely different from when they came.
When they pa.s.sed by Yu Xinya and Wan Dapeng’s base, Du Yue and He Xing hesitated for a moment, but they still decided to go over and take a look. The small base that used to be bustling with life was now in ruins. The gate was open, and people had left long ago. Although they had only stayed here for one night, Du Yue still remembered very clearly that she had fallen asleep while listening to the children’s laughter that night.
This small base, which was like the last piece of pure land in the apocalypse, was eventually destroyed by an unreasonable natural disaster. Du Yue and He Xing took a long look at the base before they returned to their car. “Don’t think too much. They might have moved away with the second base,” He Xing advised. “The second base has moved away, so the smaller bases will certainly leave as well. As long as they heard the noise, they’ll probably leave with the second base.”
He Xing’s words made sense, so Du Yue could only nod in agreement. Of course, the most important thing was that she also hoped from the bottom of her heart that everyone here had moved away with the people in the second base instead of… Du Yue did not want to think about that possibility, and He Xing had already started the car and continued driving.
Just like when they came, they decided to take the expressway this time. The condition of the expressway was definitely better than that of the city highway. Even if there was a collapse, they had Du Yue’s inters.p.a.ce, so it would not be difficult to get to their destination. However, what they did not expect was that after an hour on the expressway, just as they were about to turn into the fork in the road leading to Jingluo, they saw a fleet of cars in the distance.
