Chapter 37 The Red Rope of Destiny

noon.

"Boom--"

This time, Chen Li was woken up by a loud noise from heaven and earth.

He opened his eyes.

What caught his eye was Su Ziying's eyes looking down at him.

When he woke up this time, Chen Li found that there were only ten days left before the end of his survival mission.

Seeing Chen Li wake up, Su Ziying looked happy, her eyebrows curved, and she said softly: "You're awake."

"Ah."

Only then did Chen Li realize that he was lying on her lap.

The location of the two of them was on the rooftop of the villa.

He struggled to sit up and saw a scene that shocked him.

Because the villa was on a higher ground, he could clearly see the city below.

At this moment, the whole world was shaking.

Countless buildings collapsed, ice and snow were swallowed up by the cracked earth, and further away, the ground surface collapsed, forming bottomless holes.

Chen Li silently watched the drastic changes below.

This planet is close to being exhausted.

Their villa, with the blessing of Su Ziying's superpower, was holding on strong and was temporarily protected from the disaster.

However, the villa is on a mountain. When the entire mountain is affected, Su Ziying will not be able to save the villa.

She no longer has many supernatural powers, which are not enough to support her in maintaining the entire mountain.

Su Ziying said: "I was worried that the villa would collapse, so I brought you up there."

"correct."

Then, she picked up the meal prepared in advance and handed it to Chen Li.

"These are the dumplings I just made this morning, stuffed with beef."

Chen Li was indeed hungry. After taking it, he ate a few and praised: "It's delicious!"

Seeing Chen Li wake up and happily eating the food she cooked, the fatigue and sadness caused by Chen Li's sleep were temporarily suppressed, and happiness once again filled Su Ziying's body and mind.

Doomsday scenes continued to appear around them, but they did not affect the two of them at all.

They seemed not to be surprised, and were immersed in the warmth of being alone.

After about five minutes, the ground vibration stopped and Chen Li finished eating the dumplings.

"When did the earthquake... start?"

The two sat on the bench, leaning against each other.

"An hour before you wake up."

Su Ziying felt Chen Li's temperature carefully, raised her slender white neck, and looked at the red moon in the sky that had occupied most of the sky.

This time, Chen Li woke up for a long time.

The two chatted happily, not paying attention to the doomsday scene in front of them.

It wasn't until it was getting dark that sleepiness suddenly came over me again.

"You're going to sleep again, aren't you?"

Su Ziying noticed something, her smile gradually disappeared, sadness and reluctance filled her eyes.

She knew that from now on, every word she said to Chen Li might be the last word in her life.

Therefore, she cherished this possible last moment.

"Um……"

Chen Li saw Su Ziying's sadness, but there was nothing he could do.

"Please...please don't sleep anymore, okay..."

Su Ziying pressed her forehead against Chen Li's chest and held Chen Li's sleeves tightly with both hands, as if this could pull him back from sleep and keep him awake.

"Please...talk to me again..."

Chen Li couldn't control his sleepiness. After saying "Sorry", he fell asleep again.

"don't want……"

Before he completely lost consciousness, he vaguely heard Su Ziying crying.

……

When I woke up again, it was already ten days later.

Chen Li opened his eyes and found himself being held by Su Ziying.

Seeing him wake up, Su Ziying was stunned for a moment, then the tip of her nose felt sore, and tears instantly burst into her eyes.

He patted Su Ziying on the shoulder, smiled and said, "Put me down."

After standing firm, Chen Li looked around and was stunned.

Their current location is...

In front of the villa?

The reason for hesitation was that what was in front of him now was just a pile of ruins.

"Chen Li..."

"It's really great that you can wake up again...I'm so happy..."

Feeling a mixture of sadness and joy in her heart, Su Ziying hugged Chen Li directly and cried: "But our home...is gone..."

All along, apart from Chen Li, what she valued most was this villa filled with memories of the two of them.

Although it was only a small house, it was extremely important to Su Ziying.

Because of this, she did not hesitate to use her powers to protect this villa.     “I have been very careful...”

As if she had found her backbone, Su Ziying bit her lower lip tightly, tears soaking Chen Li's shoulders:

"But it was still shattered... just now..."

"Sorry……"

Chen Li touched her head and comforted her: "It's okay..."

"We're still here, and that's enough."

After a long time, Su Ziying stopped crying and still hugged Chen Li tightly.

Although she was very sad that the villa was gone.

But Chen Li's awakening was enough to overcome all the sadness.

It was already afternoon and the sun was still bright.

Suddenly, a long-lost system prompt appeared.

At the same time, Su Ziying looked up at his face and asked worriedly: "How long will it take you to wake up this time..."

Chen Li was stunned for a moment, and when he saw the scene in front of him clearly, he smiled.

He pushed Su Ziying's hair behind her ears and whispered, "This time, I won't sleep again."

The system prompt just now is a reminder that the survival mission has been completed!

[Congratulations to the host for successfully surviving for three hundred days. The survival mission has been completed. 】

[Task reward: 200 points have been distributed, please check the host carefully. 】

Points can be exchanged for items in the system mall.

The items inside come from all over the world.

There are only things that Chen Li can't think of, and there is nothing that is not in it.

[Note: The survival mission has been completed, and the host can leave the dream world at any time. 】

【Do you want to leave now? 】

"no."

Chen Li refused directly.

The reward for his hidden mission will only be received in ten days, so naturally he cannot leave at this juncture.

What's more, Su Ziying is here...

Turning his attention back to reality, Chen Li looked at the ruins. He seemed to notice something out of the corner of his eye and walked forward.

It reflects light and is a pair of scissors.

The scissors that Su Ziying used to cut his hair.

It was covered with dust and dirt, but Chen Li didn't mind it being dirty and wiped it clean with his clothes.

He looked back at Su Ziying and said with a smile, "Come and cut my hair."

"I haven't had a haircut in a long time, and my hair has grown."

I thought Chen Li went to the ruins to miss something, but unexpectedly he picked up scissors and asked her to cut his hair.

Thinking of what Chen Li said "I won't sleep again", she instantly turned from sadness to joy.

She didn't know what confidence Chen Li had in saying this.

But she believed in Chen Li unconditionally.

Since he said he would not sleep again, he would not sleep again.

Thinking of this, Su Ziying suddenly burst into laughter, nodded, wiped the tears from the corners of her eyes, and said with a smile: "Okay!"

Just like that, Chen Li sat on a slightly higher place in the ruins, while Su Ziying stood behind him and helped him cut his hair.

Strands of hair fell to the ground and disappeared into the ruins, which represented the complete end of their lives here.

Soon after, the originally slightly longer hair became fresh again.

Chen Li stood up, turned to Su Ziying, and said, "I have a gift for you."

Gift?

Before Su Ziying could ask any questions, he continued: "Close your eyes first."

"Ah."

Although she was confused, Su Ziying still closed her eyes obediently.

One minute later.

"Okay."

Chen Li's voice came.

When she opened her eyes, she saw that her right wrist had been tied with a delicate red rope.

There is also a small crystal clear glass bottle hanging on the red rope, and what is inside is a bunch of Chen Li's hair.

Su Ziying looked at the red rope blankly: "What is this?"

"This is--"

Chen Li laughed softly.

"The red rope of fate."

[Red rope: selling price 10 points]
