The Apocalypse of the Book: So What If I'm Just a Cannon Fodder? I Can Still Have Fun

102: Nature-themed supermarket”Master, the things in front of you are what I want, quickly bring them into the space!”

”Oh, and when I eat these things, I might fall asleep. You don’t have to worry about me.”

book book reminded Su Mianmian, worried that if she couldn’t wake it up, she would be concerned.

Su Mianmian responded with a sound, then waved her hand, collecting the jade stones into the space.

As soon as the jade stones entered the space, book book immediately placed them in front of itself.

Su Mianmian only saw wisps of white light entering book book’s body; she knew nothing else.

She didn’t pay much attention to book book. Seeing that it was fine, she withdrew her consciousness from the space.

”Shi Xu, let’s go back. I wonder if they’ve fixed the car yet.”

”If they fix it and can’t find us, they’ll be worried, right?”

Su Mianmian pulled Shi Xu to walk back, speaking with a touch of urgency.

Shi Xu, however, didn’t react much. He felt they shouldn’t be too worried.

After all, he was with Su Mianmian, not anyone else.

When the two returned to the team, they were still fixing the car.

Seeing this, Su Mianmian breathed a sigh of relief.

”Luckily they’re still fixing the car.”

”But why has this car taken so long to fix?”

”Is it too thoroughly broken?”

Su Mianmian didn’t understand such things very well. She felt that she and Shi Xu had been out for a long time, but they were still fixing the car when they returned.

Shi Xu glanced at Su Jinxuan and the others, then shook his head and said, ”It’s not that it’s too thoroughly broken; it’s because it’s too cold, and the car is difficult to start.”

Su Mianmian nodded, thinking Shi Xu made sense.

The weather was really too cold. If it weren’t for needing to find supplies, she wouldn’t want to come out at all.

Shi Xu waited with Su Mianmian for a while. He couldn’t stand it anymore, so he told Su Mianmian not to wander off and went over to help.

Su Mianmian nodded, signaling him not to worry, she wouldn’t wander off.

Not long after Shi Xu went over, the car was fixed.

Su Mianmian watched, completely stunned.

She saw Shi Xu return and said with a shocked expression, ”Shi Xu, how do you have this kind of ability too?

You’re a bit too versatile!”

He was already nearly omnipotent.

Su Mianmian looked at Shi Xu with an admiring expression, filled with uncontrollable envy.

When could she also become a bit more versatile?

”Practice makes perfect. I often encountered danger before. If I didn’t know how to fix cars, I would have probably died on the road countless times.”

”Behind all this versatility isn’t necessarily a good thing; it’s better if you don’t have it.”

Shi Xu looked at her admiring expression, reached out and ruffled her hair, then smiled.

Su Mianmian felt a little heartache when she heard him say that.

She reached out and took his hand, saying solemnly, ”Shi Xu, from now on, I’ll help you. I will absolutely never let you fall into dangerous situations again.”

Su Mianmian’s eyes were too bright, and the smile on Shi Xu’s lips couldn’t help but recede.

He felt that no beautiful thing could compare to Su Mianmian.

Meeting her was the luckiest thing in his life.

”Mianmian, I think all my past misfortunes were just a prelude to meeting you.”

”I’m very grateful for those misfortunes now. If it weren’t for them, I might not have met you.”

”Without you, what’s the meaning of life?”

”It would just be getting by.”

Shi Xu looked at Su Mianmian with a serious expression.

What he said were his true feelings. Indeed, if he hadn’t met Su Mianmian, for him, life would have just been getting by.

Su Mianmian looked at Shi Xu’s happy and grateful expression, and she didn’t know what to say.

She didn’t want him to think that way. What she hoped most was that Shi Xu, no matter when, would have his own beliefs.

Su Mianmian didn’t want to become his belief, because she was afraid she would leave this place.

Transmigration was already an unusual thing, and she was afraid she would return to her original world.

Thinking of this, Su Mianmian’s eyes couldn’t help but darken a little.

Shi Xu didn’t notice. He suddenly felt a chill.

”Mianmian, we need to leave here quickly.”

”I sense danger.”

After Shi Xu finished speaking, he pulled Su Mianmian and quickly returned to the car.

The others, hearing what he said, immediately got into their own cars.

Soon, the cars drove off one after another.

Not long after they left, a large swarm of ants arrived at the place they had just been.

These ants were as big as small cats, and their eyes were unusually large, with both eyes together being as big as a ping-pong ball.

The ant at the very front looked in the direction Shi Xu and the others had left, and its two front antennae couldn’t help but twitch a few times.

After watching for a long while, it finally, unwillingly, released a signal, ordering the ant colony to another location.

Shi Xu told the convoy to drive at full speed, to keep moving forward, and not to stop.

After driving for several hours, he finally told them to stop.

”Captain Shi, what happened just now? Why did you give such an order?”

”Did we encounter zombies?”

Zhang Jianping, the team leader under Ren Tingfeng’s command, got out of his car and walked directly to Shi Xu’s car. Seeing Shi Xu get out, he immediately stepped forward and asked.

Shi Xu told him his premonition. Hearing this, he nodded, said nothing, and turned to leave.

Su Mianmian looked at Zhang Jianping like this and couldn’t help but smile helplessly.

”Are Ren Tingfeng’s subordinates all the same personality as him?”

”It feels like all his subordinates I meet have this kind of personality.”

Su Mianmian looked in the direction Zhang Jianping had left, saying with an amused expression.

Shi Xu’s subordinates weren’t like that; she felt they were all quite amusing, unlike Ren Tingfeng’s subordinates, who were all calm and steady like him.

Shi Xu looked at Su Mianmian’s smiling expression. He knew she must be thinking about his subordinates right now.

”Mianmian, I don’t suppress the personalities of the people around me. They can develop however they want.”

”As long as they do their jobs well, that’s enough.”

”I don’t care about anything else.”

Shi Xu explained.

Su Mianmian nodded understandingly. The people around Shi Xu indeed had a feeling of wild growth. They had been with Shi Xu for so long and hadn’t been influenced by his personality, which was incredibly impressive.

”Will you be influenced by me?”

”If one day you become as unreliable as me, then you won’t be you anymore.”

Su Mianmian looked at Shi Xu with an amused expression, teasing him.

Shi Xu gave her an expression that said he wouldn’t be like that.

After eating and resting for a while, the group continued their journey.

Soon, the car arrived near a supermarket.

The theme of this supermarket was ”Nature,” and it was surrounded by forests and mountains.

Its area was quite large. Ren Tingfeng said there were also warehouses nearby, but he didn’t know their exact location, so they would have to find them themselves.

The road inside hadn’t been repaired yet, so their cars couldn’t drive in.

Shi Xu had someone park the car in a hidden corner, and the group walked lightly towards the supermarket.

Along the way, Su Mianmian looked curiously left and right. It was her first time seeing a supermarket with such a theme. If the apocalypse hadn’t happened, she believed this supermarket would definitely be very popular.

At least she would be willing to patronize it.

She loved coming to these new places and experiencing different atmospheres.

”Shi Xu, what do you think the owner of this supermarket was thinking to come up with such a theme?”

”I think it’s so interesting!”

Su Mianmian looked around at the nearby environment, then couldn’t help but turn to Shi Xu to discuss it.

Shi Xu saw her very interested in the place and couldn’t help but feel a little regretful.

”If there were no apocalypse, and this supermarket opened, I would definitely bring you here to have some fun.”

”What a pity.”

”But when we build a base later, we can build a supermarket of this type inside.”

Shi Xu thought for a moment and said.

Upon hearing this, Su Mianmian quickly waved her hand and said, ”No, no, there are so many mutated plants in the apocalypse. I don’t want the base to be attacked by mutated plants.”

She looked at Shi Xu with a terrified expression, her refusal very obvious.

Shi Xu heard this and couldn’t help but smile.

”That’s true, it’s not like before. It seems the base will be bare.”

”You shouldn’t mind, right?”

Shi Xu couldn’t help but tease her.

Su Mianmian rolled her eyes at Shi Xu. She felt that Shi Xu was deliberately doing it, and she didn’t know when he had become so mischievous.

”Shi Xu, I think you need a good talking to.”

”Does my minding matter?”

”Staying alive is the most important thing.”

Su Mianmian said helplessly.
