Ma Xiaoxuan doesn't know what love is, but in the story told by the "second master", she gradually fell in love with the image of Nantes.

After seeing the real person, I felt much more handsome and sunny than I imagined, and I had a slight impression at first sight.

Nantes didn't think much of this little girl who was just beginning to develop, and was a little distant and cold at first sight.

In Ma Xiaoxuan's cognitive world, none of the men in the arsenal have such a temperament as him, so he gradually fell in love with this handsome guy.

When I close my eyes, my mind is his shadow, and I sleep at night, and I dream that he takes me to the end of the world all night.

It was as if she had found a fun new toy, and every day when she met, she called "good brother" and pestered him upstairs with her arms to talk about things outside.

The "second master" finally got rid of this sticky burden, and he had the mind of adult beauty, and wanted to leave several times to create opportunities for the two of them, but was always stopped by Nantes with excuses.

Ma Xiaoxuan didn't think there was anything wrong, because the "second master" could always add some details that Nantes couldn't tell, and it also verified that Nantes's story was a real thing.

She has never regarded the "second master" as a competitor, after all, the "second master" is more than ten years older than her, and it is no problem to call her aunt. Even faintly, she had the absurd feeling that there was a mother and son sitting opposite.

After breakfast, she came to the secret operations staff room, and pestered Nantes to tell the story, this story of "Uncle Xiao fought the Northeast Gun King, and finally won the heart of the beauty", Nantes has told it three times, and even after Xiao Yang was injured, the beautiful widow's distressed and surprised expression was performed, and the little girl was stunned and couldn't hear enough.

Nantes didn't want to talk about it anymore, so she urinated and fled.

Coincidentally, just before this, the old horse in the adjacent courtyard was sitting under the porch pavilion, pulling the leaves and deciding whether to confess to the "second master".

After struggling for so long, he finally came up with a result: "Confession!" ”

Walking out of the hot spring courtyard by stepping on the leaves, the old horse tightened his belt and tidied up his appearance, and suddenly felt that the stubble was inappropriate, so he hurriedly ran back and shaved his beard.

When Lao Ma reappeared in the underground command room, he was just in time for Nantes to be tired of Ma Xiaoxuan, so he used a trick to pee away.

The two met on the steps, and Nantes couldn't see the opposite face clearly by the light, but probably recognized it as the old horse by his physical characteristics, so he ran two steps and grabbed his arm as if he were seeing a savior.

"Teacher, help me...... Yes! Who are you? Why are you wearing the clothes of the old horse and what did you do to him? ”

As he spoke, he hurriedly jumped two steps away to find his weapon.

The old horse's face instantly darkened a shade, and when he raised his hand, his brain collapsed: "What are you yelling about!" I'm an old horse! ”

"Huh? Old horses? You're not right......" Nantes looked up and down with her head covered, as if she just sensed something was wrong.

The "second master" and Ma Xiaoxuan came out when they heard the news, and shouted in surprise: "Where is your beard!" ”

Nantes realized that since the end of the world, the old horse's face had never been so smooth.

As if he didn't believe it, he reached out and touched it, and the old horse knocked his hand off, his face flushed, and he pretended to be angry and said: "Stinky boy, no big or small, flash aside!" ”

Nantes didn't understand it stupidly, but Ma Xiaoxuan, who often watched romance, saw a little clue, and pulled Nantes's sleeve to ask him to leave.

Nantes wondered and didn't want to go: "Oh, hey, don't drag"

was choked by Ma Xiaoxuan's words: "Aren't you unable to hold back?" ”

"I can't hold my back...... I'm peeing and walking by myself, what's the matter with you? ”

"I'll go too"

"There is a difference between men and women, are you good to let go......"

The two of them pulled and pulled away like a fight, leaving two middle-aged people standing awkwardly.

"Something?"

"Ah, no, it's okay, just come and have a look."

"Oh, come in and see."

"Oh yes."

The old horse bowed his head and walked in, and the secret operations staff room was empty.

Originally, Ma Zhan also planned to send someone to be on duty to monitor the enemy's situation, but Ma Xiaoxuan joked that the people watching the arsenal were an eyesore, and the "second master" took the initiative to take over the task of surveillance, and this place became a clean place for several of them.

Now that the two young men had run away, the old horse felt that his chance had come.

The "second master" sat in front of the big screen, pressing his fingers on a spherical controller, constantly switching between the screen screens.

The screen was mostly a quiet empty shot, with only a few showing signs of mutant movement.

The savage creatures were also eating breakfast, picking out the old and sick from the ranks and beating them down to eat. These cruel pictures were presented in front of the two, and they were a little unappetizing, and the "second master" didn't want to see them, so he quickly cut them off.

The old horse sat behind her and did not speak, and once again fell into a strong ideological struggle.

The "second master" took a notebook to write down the time and the word "eat" on the note, which broke the dullness in the room: "For so many years, I saw you shave your beard for the first time." ”

The old horse unconsciously touched his chin and answered, "Isn't it ten years younger?" ”

"Ten years old is more than that, I think you are twenty years old, I used to look like you were almost sixty."

"What's the matter, I'm only 43 years old this year."

She joked: "Poof, I've really looked away, I always thought you were running 6." ”

The old horse was serious, stood up and patted his chest: "Have you ever seen a sixty-year-old person still have this physique?" Can you still carry a hundred and ten pounds of Gatling Vulcan Cannon around? ”

"Hey, don't get me wrong, I just said it casually and teased you to play ......" The "second master" quickly turned around and seriously persuaded him to sit down.

The two looked at each other, Lao Ma suddenly remembered the purpose of his coming, turned his head and opened half a glass of water on the table, and he didn't know whose it was, so he picked it up and drank it with his neck, then cleared his throat and spoke in the surprised gaze of the "second master".

"Well, I like you, would you like me?"

"Huh?" Although he had been vaguely mentally prepared before, the "second master" couldn't help but open his mouth wide when he heard his words.

"Would you like me? Like it, or don't like it, where is it willing to like? Her brain was running at high speed, and she instantly figured out that Lao Ma might have wanted to say at first: "I like you, are you willing to marry me?" ”

When the words came to his mouth, he may have discounted it again and changed his words to "Would you like me?" ”

The man opposite waited for the big eyes, his hands clenched the glass tightly, the veins in his arms were bursting, his eyes were full of anticipation, waiting for her to answer: "Okay or willing." ”

He didn't want to hear more than three words.

The atmosphere was a little awkward, and the "second master" was silent for a moment, and stammered, "Can you return the cup to me first?" ”

The old horse's shoulders slumped, and with an embarrassed smile of disappointment and apology on his face, he handed the cup over with both hands.

He knew he was out of play, he had calculated all the results before he came, and as a math teacher, he easily came up with a chance that he only had a 27% chance of winning.

If it was the original sane old horse, he would definitely not take the risk.

But who told him that he had been blinded by love and carried away by hope.

Everyone knows that usually at this time, the woman does not agree immediately, and ninety percent may be going to issue a good person card.

"Old horse, you're a good man."

"......" When the old horse heard this, he had no reason to sit here at all, and turned around and walked up the steps.

Looking at his lonely figure, the heart of the "second master" couldn't bear it: "It's that I don't deserve your liking, I will hurt you." ”

"Don't comfort me, it's my wishful thinking, I'm sorry to disturb me." The old horse stepped up the steps step by step, and each step was extraordinarily heavy.

Looking at his back that seemed to be old in an instant, the "second master" could no longer hold back his tender side, and said softly: "Don't be presumptuous, in fact, I like you too." ”

“？？？” The old horse suddenly stopped, tilted his head, and his eyes were bigger than a cow.

He turned around and saw the blonde woman standing there, with tears in her eyes for some reason.

The old horse seemed to confirm something, and seemed to feel sorry for her, so he took two steps over and hugged the shoulders of the "second master".

The "second master" slowly raised his hands and paused before hugging his broad shoulders.

Tears flowed from her eyes, and she was also engaged in a deep ideological struggle.

Over the years, she and Lao Ma have led the development of the pest team together, often making consistent choices, and have long cherished each other. The more time we get along, the more we get to know each other, she knows a lot of stories about Lao Ma, but Lao Ma doesn't know her past.

In the first year of the apocalypse, Shi Qing's father and brother were besieged by a large number of mutants in order to cover the comprehensive retreat of the Ji family, and her family was ruined.

Claiming to be ashamed of being with each other on the outside, but in fact he wants revenge on the inside.

At that time, the major forces within the Ji clan were redividing their spheres of influence, and her voluntary withdrawal meant that there was one less competing family, and the elders with interested interests couldn't help but praise: "This girl is sensible, knowledgeable, and backbone." ”

Because of this sentence, she was quite taken care of in the dreadnought, loved the house and Wu, and even the pest team was sheltered, which is the real reason why Nantes was not dismissed after repeated disobedience.

But taking care of it, the punishment from the Ji clan's palm speaker is still not implemented.

According to the internal rules of the wang clan, the family that dares to take the initiative to sever relations should be punished for rebellion. In addition to economic sanctions and resource constraints, the biggest punishment is to ask them to cut off the incense and guard the secret for the Ji family.

This was originally a trivial matter for Shi Qing, who had transformed into the "second master", she joined the dreadnought group, and she could practice killing the enemy without worrying about food and clothing, providing nourishment for the seed of revenge in her heart.

Now, the emotional entanglement with Lao Ma has made her firm heart encounter unprecedented challenges.

At the age of 34, she longs for a warm home, a broad shoulder to lean on, and a child to rely on. But all of this is a hindrance to her revenge.

For her, accepting the old horse means giving up everything she carries.

Thinking about the tragic death of her parents and brothers, and the young faces of the family, screaming from the mutant bites, she could no longer control her tears.

She gently patted the old horse's back and said a sentence that made the old horse like five thunders: "Old horse, let's just assume that none of this happened today, okay?" ”
