Raising a Girlfriend Starting from a Dream Game - Chapter 9
The first day of Apocalypse survival thus came to an end.
But the next morning, Ling Xiao almost couldn’t get up.
The pain throughout his body made him feel as if he were paralyzed.
“This dreamscape is truly incredible, even pain can be simulated so realistically.”
Moving supplies all day yesterday had left Ling Xiao sore all over.
He couldn’t afford to spend the day lying in bed.
He was now surviving in an Apocalypse environment.
Although the food he moved yesterday was enough to last him half a year…
After a day in this situation, Ling Xiao felt that only by storing more food could he have a sense of security.
Now that he was in the Apocalypse, no one could predict what might happen.
Besides hoarding food, Ling Xiao also visited various pharmacies.
He took all the usable medicine back to the supermarket.
After finishing these tasks, Ling Xiao scooped a few spoonfuls of millet from the rice bag.
Today he wanted to have some millet porridge.
He put it in the automatic rice cooker, plugged it in, and all he had to do was wait.
Then he took a piece of beef from the freezer and fried it in a pan.
Sprinkling on the seasoning, when it was about time, he flipped it to the other side with tongs.
Although it didn’t look particularly appealing, it could be considered the first steak in the post-apocalyptic world.
After eating and drinking his fill, Ling Xiao found a megaphone.
He connected the megaphone to the speaker.
Soon, sound came from the speaker.
“Is anyone there?! Is anyone there?! If there’s anyone, come here!”
Single sentence on loop.
The purpose was to attract Yang Linlin’s attention.
Even though Ling Xiao didn’t know if Yang Linlin was still in this world.
He looked at the calendar and silently crossed off another day.
Including today, he had already survived two days in this post-apocalyptic world.
No one to talk to, no communication.
The silence was somewhat frustrating.
Here, not to mention a dog or a cat, even mosquitoes had vanished into thin air.
It was as if, apart from himself, there were no other living creatures in this world.
He walked out of the supermarket entrance and approached a motorcycle.
Soon, the only sound in this quiet city was the “vroom vroom” of the motorcycle.
[Second day surviving in the Apocalypse, stored a large amount of medicine today. At the very least, headaches and fevers should be treatable.]
[Strangely enough, since entering the dreamscape, my stomach hasn’t been aching subtly. Perhaps inherent illnesses aren’t brought into the dreamscape.]
[Also went to a gas station and brought back several barrels of diesel, so no need to worry about the generator running out of fuel.]
[Not sure how Yang Linlin is doing now, will search for her again tomorrow.]
This was the diary Ling Xiao wrote tonight.
Normal people of course don’t write diaries.
It’s just that he felt the 100 days were really difficult to endure.
So he wrote some things to relax himself.
Putting down the pen and closing the notebook, Ling Xiao went to the window, preparing to close it.
Watching the light rain outside, his mood worsened.
Not sure where Yang Linlin is now. If he had to endure these 100 days alone, it would really be quite boring.
Just as he was about to go to bed and rest, he suddenly heard a car alarm sounding outside.
He immediately reacted.
Cars don’t alarm for no reason.
Someone must have touched or hit it!
A person!
Ling Xiao immediately went downstairs.
Putting on a raincoat, he ran straight out.
The car with the alarm was on the opposite side of the road.
And it was smoking. Ling Xiao immediately ran over upon seeing the situation.
Indeed!
There was someone sitting in the driver’s seat of the smoking car.
A living person.
Ling Xiao looked at Yang Linlin before him and realized she had already passed out.
He immediately opened the car door and said to her, “How are you? Are you okay?”
But Yang Linlin in the driver’s seat just kept her eyes closed, head resting against the airbag, and didn’t speak.
Because it was raining, Ling Xiao had no choice but to quickly unbuckle Yang Linlin’s seatbelt.
Then he carried her out of the car.
He originally wanted to check her injuries, but the rain was getting heavier and heavier.
Ling Xiao carried her in a princess hold into the supermarket.
Yang Linlin had a good figure, with all the right curves absolutely sufficient, but her weight wasn’t too heavy either.
After placing Yang Linlin on the sofa, Ling Xiao took off his raincoat and came before her to examine her.
He lifted Yang Linlin’s arm and found some abrasions and bruises on her elbow, but no other external injuries besides that.
“Fortunately, it shouldn’t be anything serious.”
While examining her, Ling Xiao noticed Yang Linlin’s face was covered in raindrops.
Her collar was already soaked by the rainwater.
So he turned around to get some tissues, preparing to wipe her dry.
Seeing her furrowed brows and dry lips, this state indeed made people feel quite compassionate.
Ling Xiao knew she hadn’t been doing well these past couple of days.
Looking at the girl before him.
Indeed, she was quite beautiful.
Delicate features, fair and tender skin, a natural kind of elegant temperament.
During the last dreamscape, both of them were only focused on escaping.
Ling Xiao simply didn’t have time to look at his partner.
In the next 100 days, having a beauty to feast my eyes on wouldn’t be bad either.
This was Ling Xiao’s inner thought.
He placed the tissue on Yang Linlin’s neck to wipe, intending to clean all the raindrops around her collarbone.
But just then, Yang Linlin woke up.
She groggily opened her eyes.
“Slap!”
A slap landed on Ling Xiao’s face.
Ling Xiao was stunned.
Covering his stinging cheek, looking at the furious Yang Linlin before him, he didn’t get angry, knowing this was a normal reaction, and said, “You’re awake?”
Only then did Yang Linlin notice there was a person before her!
A living person!
And a man at that.
She immediately curled up her legs, crossed her arms over her chest, and said fearfully with closed eyes, “You, what do you want to do?!”
Ling Xiao immediately explained, “I saw you had a car accident outside, so I rescued you and brought you back here.”
Only then did Yang Linlin search her memory for the previous scenes.
Two days ago, she woke up to find no one at home.
Yes, not just at home – the entire residential complex, the entire street, even the entire town had no people.
She was terrified, thinking she was dreaming.
Just like last time when she dreamed she was on a battlefield.
So she immediately returned home, closed her eyes, and went back to sleep.
Slept for a whole day, forcing herself even when she couldn’t sleep anymore.
But the next morning.
When she saw the exact same scene, she panicked.
This wasn’t a dream.
All these feelings were so real.
It couldn’t be a dream!
She was clearly somewhat breaking down.
What exactly was going on??
After another day, Yang Linlin gradually accepted reality.
With confusion and unease, she found a car on the street and drove it unfamiliarity.
But after driving just a few meters, she crashed into the vehicle in front.
Just like that, she kept crashing as she moved forward. She wanted to return to school, to go back and see, to find Chen Ting.
But Yang Linlin knew that Chen Ting was most likely no longer at school.
Or perhaps even no longer in this world.
“At least in my previous dreams, there was the senior, but in the real world…Now it’s just me alone, wuwu…”
Yang Linlin shed tears, crying as she drove.
But because of the rain, the road was slippery, and she didn’t see the vehicle ahead, crashing straight into it.
This was Yang Linlin’s experience over the past two days.
At this moment, having regained her senses, she opened her eyes again and looked at the boy before her.
With that look, her pupils dilated, and her entire body froze.
