Yun Xiaoxiao was taken aback.
It seemed like there was indeed such an incident.
At that time, she was collecting supplies everywhere, and when she passed through the central region, she did roast some meat by the roadside.
Little Cutie and Big Beauty even "thoughtfully" tasted the food for her.
However, Big Beauty was now deeply in love with its tigress, staying snugly in the base, so naturally, it wasn’t with her.
At that moment, the roar of a car engine sounded not far away.
Mo Xing and the others looked up.
Upon seeing the familiar car, Mo Xing exclaimed joyfully,
"Big sister is here!"
Not long after, the car approached.
The car had been modified; instead of tires, it had something like inflatable cushions touching the ground.
Clearly, it was designed specifically for snowy terrain.
The car came to a sudden stop, and Mo Chun stepped out.
She hurried over to Mo Xing, checking him over from head to toe.
Only after confirming that Mo Xing was unharmed did she let out a sigh of relief.
But in the next second, her gentle eyes suddenly turned stern.
"Mo Xing! Who told you to run off like that! Do you have any idea how worried Mom, Dad, and I have been?"
Though her words were scolding, it was evident that her tone was harsh out of deep concern.
Mo Xing, knowing he was at fault, lowered his head.
"I’m sorry, big sister. I didn’t mean to worry you all."
"Mo Xing, I’m not just saying this, but you’re already eight years old. You need to be more responsible. Do you know how frantic Uncle and Auntie were? And you made so many people come out in this freezing weather to look for you!"
At that moment, another woman, heavily made-up, stepped out of the car.
Following her was a tall, well-dressed man who looked refined and polite.
"That’s right, Mo Xing. You can’t keep acting like a child. It’s time to grow up," the woman chimed in.
At the sight of the two, Mo Xing’s expression immediately darkened.
He seemed furious.
Hearing their words, Mo Xing couldn’t hold back any longer, glaring at them angrily, his fists clenched tightly.
"It’s all because of the two of you!"
"Because of us?"
The woman pointed at herself, baffled.
Mo Xing glared at her, "Stop pretending! Last night, I saw you and Yao Shengwei sneaking around behind the granary, doing... doing that kind of thing!
You two are shameless!"
As soon as these words were spoken, the scene fell into complete silence, as if the air itself had frozen.
Mo Chun was stunned. She looked at her cousin and her fiancé, and from the fleeting panic in their eyes, she understood everything.
She and Yao Shengwei had been betrothed by their parents since childhood.
Although arranged marriages were no longer common in this day and age,
they had coincidentally ended up at the same university.
Yao Shengwei had suddenly started pursuing her fervently.
Having never been in a relationship before, she somehow found herself agreeing to be with him.
Later, thinking that their parents wanted them together anyway, she tried to make herself fall for him.
After the apocalypse, both families ended up in the same base.
Her family of four had all awakened supernatural abilities, while Yao Shengwei’s family of three had none.
Still, she hadn’t looked down on him and treated him as she always had.
She had even agreed to move up their wedding date to accommodate his feelings.
But she never expected that he would secretly get involved with her cousin.
Heartbroken? Not exactly.
But disappointed? Definitely.
"Ah Chun, let me explain. It’s not what you think," Yao Shengwei hurriedly tried to explain.
"That’s right, last night Shengwei and I were just discussing some matters. It was so dark, Mo Xing must have mistaken what he saw," the woman added, panicking.
She was an orphan, relying on her uncle’s family for a comfortable and stable life.
If her uncle found out about this, given his temperament, he would surely kick her out!
Watching the two of them flustered and ridiculous, Mo Chun’s expression remained calm, her eyes indifferent.
It was as if they were nothing more than strangers passing by.
"Yao Shengwei, I’m letting you know that tomorrow’s wedding is canceled. We’re done.
And congratulations to you and my cousin. May you two stay together forever."
Yao Shengwei and the woman: !!!
"Wait, marriage isn’t a joke! You can’t just call it off like that!"
Yao Shengwei was now utterly frantic.
"Even if something did happen between me and your cousin, it’s just a mistake any man could make. Can’t you forgive me?
At the end of the day, you just don’t love me!
We’ve been together for so long, and you won’t even let me kiss you.
I’m a normal man with normal needs, isn’t that understandable?!"
If she canceled the wedding, his plans would be ruined!
This wedding had to happen!
Little did he know, Yun Xiaoxiao had overheard everything.
Yun Xiaoxiao couldn’t stand it anymore.
This scumbag was truly the worst of the worst.
Not only had he cheated, but he was also plotting to harm her for her wealth.
"Pretty big sister, you must not marry him. He’s after the jade pendant in your possession and your father’s position. If you marry him, your fate will be tragic."
Yun Xiaoxiao’s words were shocking, leaving everyone present stunned.
Only then did Mo Chun notice Yun Xiaoxiao and the three massive creatures behind her!
What...
She was inwardly shocked.
What were these things?
Why were they so huge?!
Earlier, she had been too worried about Mo Xing, her focus entirely on him.
Then, after her brother’s accusation against Yao Shengwei, she hadn’t noticed Yun Xiaoxiao and the creatures.
Now that she saw them, she was thoroughly frightened.
However, despite her inner turmoil, she showed little of it on her face.
Seeing her sister’s puzzled expression, Mo Xing quickly explained.
"Big sister, they came with the little girl. It was her who had them help us escape danger earlier."
Hearing this, Mo Chun immediately looked at Yun Xiaoxiao with gratitude.
Before she could express her thanks, a flicker of recognition crossed her eyes.
"Have... have I seen you somewhere before?"
She stared at Yun Xiaoxiao’s face, feeling a sense of familiarity.
But she couldn’t quite place where she had seen her.
"Big sister, don’t you remember? On our way home, we passed by this little girl. She was roasting meat by the roadside," Mo Xing reminded her.
With that, Mo Chun immediately recalled.
"So it’s you!"
She smiled gently, exuding a warm and serene aura.
She expressed her gratitude profusely.
Yun Xiaoxiao waved her hand, "No need to thank me. Your brother helped me too, so we’re even."
Mo Chun thanked her again.
Then, she remembered what Yun Xiaoxiao had said earlier.
"Little girl, what did you mean by what you said earlier?"
"Just... exactly what I said. In short, don’t marry him. If possible, it’s best to kill him. He has ill intentions toward you and even your family."
"Little girl, don’t slander me! You have no proof. How can you say such things about me!"
Yao Shengwei glared at Yun Xiaoxiao furiously.
Yun Xiaoxiao shrugged, "I say what I want. Scumbags like you deserve to be called out. You’re not innocent."
Yao Shengwei: !!!
Mo Chun knew Yun Xiaoxiao meant well. After all, she and Yao Shengwei had never met before, so there was no reason for her to deliberately harm him.
This little girl must have some extraordinary ability to see through people’s true nature.
What she said was undoubtedly true.
However, killing Yao Shengwei wasn’t a realistic option.
Their families had been close for generations.
Both sets of parents were well-acquainted and held positions of power in the base.
Killing him without cause would be hard to justify.
This matter needed to be discussed with her father and the others first.
(PS: Dear readers, I’ve revised the first three chapters.
Last night, I noticed a sudden influx of messages in the backend and was curious about the comments. Upon checking, I realized many of you were unhappy with the amnesia plotline.
So, I stayed up late revising the story outline, removing the amnesia element.
The new outline won’t affect the overall story direction, so you can continue reading with peace of mind.
Love you all~
Feel free to revisit the first three chapters!)
