Chapter 37: Marriage Proposal
The two stared at each other like this, and when Wang Xi continued to finish, Tingting threw herself into Wang Xi's arms.
"I'm not wronged, not wronged at all, as long as you accompany me, I'm the happiest"
"With you, I want to be with you for the rest of my life, I can't get rid of you if you want to"
Tingting hugged Wang Xi's arm tightly, hiding in Wang Xi's arms with tears in her eyes and nodding.
"Alright, it's not early, let's hurry up"
"Do you mean to go to the county seat?"
"yes"
"But ......"
"Don't do it, let's get there first."
Tingting wiped the tears on her face and followed Wang Xi to the motorcycle .......
It was true that they didn't go far, and they bypassed a hill along the highway, and a county town that looked good appeared in front, but there were many walking corpses wandering on the highway that was paved straight on the edge of the county, and the two had to stop at the ramp of the mountain and observe the situation below against the mountain wall.
"I don't think the walking corpses are densely populated, we should be able to rush over."
"Now is not the time to think about the past that will not be rushed"
Tingting looked at Wang Xi with a confused expression, and Wang Xi squinted at the row of buildings built on the side of the highway below.
"Do you see that building?"
"Do you mean that building called the Holywood Hotel?"
Wang Xi smiled and nodded with Tingting.
"Don't tell me ......."
"How? We're going to spend the night there, you see there's a supermarket next door."
"Are you crazy, you didn't see so many walking corpses on the road, and even if you run outside the hotel, you can guarantee that there are no walking corpses inside"
"What are you afraid of, don't we have guns?"
Wang Xi mentioned the ninety-five rifle hanging on his body in front of Tingting's eyes.
"Did you know that the sound of gunfire might attract more walking corpses? Don't make a fuss, I know you're doing it for my good, but it's not worth the risk."
"It's not a risk at all, you see, that row of buildings is right next to the highway, it's almost there after going over those policemen's guardrails, I took a closer look, and the only walking corpses I can see are on the highway, and there are almost no walking corpses in front of that row of houses."
Wang Xi's observation is still in place, perhaps because it is easy to walk on the highway from the county seat, although there are some blocking strips set up by the police at a glance, but if you have the heart to go to the highway, you can still easily cross those blocking facilities with a casual flip, perhaps because of this, in addition to the highway and the vast village farmland opposite, the county town rarely sees the traces of walking corpses, at least the current observation results are like this.
"Saying that, I still think don't take this risk, as long as I'm with you, I'm willing to sleep in the mountains."
"Good wife, you just listen to my arrangement on such an important day, and let's talk about what dangers we really have to encounter in the past, we can just go back, there's nothing to worry about"
Seeing Wang Xi's posture that he had to go, and Tingting also wanted to have a good wedding night, so there was no other way than to support Wang Xi.
After getting Tingting's approval, the two pushed the motorcycle and approached the county a little, after completely leaving the mountainous area, the two left the motorcycle on the highway, by Wang Xi carrying a backpack, turned out of the highway together, came to the county side of the open space under development, after a quick pass, the two of them relied on the roadside not high or low various blocking facilities while observing and approaching the location of the hotel.
"It's all at the hotel, what else are you going to do?"
"It's rare that the door of the supermarket has been broken by others, so let's see what to do if you don't go in"
"You also saw that the door is broken, there must be a walking corpse inside, we have all of them, so don't bother yourself"
"It's different"
"What's different?"
Tingting didn't know what Wang Xi meant when she said different, and Wang Xi didn't answer, but first took Tingting to the large glass door of the hotel, and Tingting sentry, Wang Xi observed the hotel lobby with her hand under the light.
"Look, it's still locked, it must be very safe inside, I'll go to Zhao to see if there's anything that can pick open this lock, you wait for me here"
The glass door of the hotel is just a handful of ordinary, lock bicycle with a rubber sleeve outside the lock to tie the door handle, Wang Xi left the hotel gate and went straight to the construction site just passed, came to a simple shed made of wooden planks, the wooden door of the shed is only buckled with a door buckle, not even the lock, this situation is in line with Wang Xi's mind, into the shed for a while, Wang Xi took a small destruction pliers and a short chisel iron and ran back carefully.
Using the destruction pliers, Wang Xi easily got the bicycle lock, the two entered the hotel lobby or did some reconnaissance first, after confirming the safety of the hall, Wang Xi took the chisel and prepared to go to the supermarket next door alone, Tingting also knew that he couldn't pull it, and he had to follow, but Wang Xi still asked Tingting to stay here and wait for him, saying that if he encountered any danger in the supermarket, Tingting could make a response when he escaped back here.
After Wang Xi went out, Tingting put her backpack behind her, and she stood by the pillar next to the glass door, fidgeting and looking at the direction of the supermarket outside the glass door.......
After waiting for a while, Tingting was ready to leave the hall and go to the supermarket next door to see how Wang Xi was doing, and at this time, Wang Xi appeared in Tingting's sight carrying a large plastic basin.
Back in the hall, Wang Xi put the big basin on the ground, shook two sour hands and went to the hotel front desk, Tingting squatted down with great interest to see what was in the basin.
"The supermarket is almost all looted, and all you can find is these things"
Wang Xi was lowering his head and flipping through a book that didn't know what was written, and he didn't raise his head to explain to Tingting why there was no food in the basin, Tingting also wanted to ask, but now that she knows the reason, she just sighed a little deflated, although the two of them are still worried about eating and drinking, but the mouth of eating steamed buns and compressed biscuits is tasteless.
After turning over the things in the basin, it is some candles and red wine, as well as toiletries, for this item, Tingting will not think much about whether Wang Xi is doing something crooked, they are all people who have seen each other's nakedness, and now the two still have a "husband and wife" relationship, so some things are still taken for granted, Tingting is also a lot relieved, she stood up, first looked outside the glass door, and then looked at Wang Xi, he had already walked out of the back of the front desk, and there was an extra key in his hand.
"This room is probably the most luxurious one here."
Wang Xi flashed the key in his hand to Tingting.
"How do you know this must be the most luxurious?"
"Because this room is the only room on their books that is the most expensive."
It turned out that Wang Xi was flipping through the account book just now, and he did this just to find the most luxurious room here, Tingting was moved by Wang Xi's little carefulness again......
Wang Xi carried the basin behind her backpack, Tingting walked in front with two lit candles as lighting, and the two walked down the somewhat dark staircase to the eighth floor, which is also the highest floor of this hotel, the hotel is very quiet, maybe because the door is locked, it is empty, and the two of them didn't hear any movement along the way, but they still didn't dare to take it lightly.
Standing in front of the door of the room number displayed on the key plate, Wang Xi put down the big basin again, took the key from Tingting's hand, and held the pistol in his hand at the same time, and then slowly opened the door, and then he first looked inside from the crack in the door that opened a little, because of the curtains, nothing could be seen in the dark, Wang Xi pushed the door open, knocked on the door panel with a pistol, and then took two steps back with Tingting, raised the muzzle of the gun and aimed it at the dark room, and after half a minute, no sound was heard. didn't see anything rushing out of it, Wang Xi took the candle from Tingting's hand, and entered the room with a gun in one hand and a candle in the other, Tingting also held a pistol, vigilantly watching the corridors on both sides of this floor.
After Wang Xi carefully checked, the room was very safe, all kinds of furnishings and the big bed were very neat, not messy at all, Wang Xi left the two candles brought in on the two tables opposite the room, and then came out of the room, lifted the big basin and entered the room with Tingting, and closed the door with his feet.
In order to make the room brighter, there are many candles anyway, and the first thing they do when they enter the room is to light the candles and place .......
Looking at the light of the candles all over the room, it has gathered to illuminate the whole room very brightly, which is an extremely romantic scene for Tingting She has seen many times on TV, and she enviously thinks about whether she will be able to experience it once, but she didn't expect to enjoy it before, but she really experienced it in this apocalypse, and it was on her wedding night.
Wang Xi also put his arm around Tingting's shoulders and enjoyed the romantic scene for a good time, and then he began to bend down and turn over the contents of the basin.
"I don't know if there's water or not, but you're still thinking about taking a bath."
"If you try it with or without water, you can't help but prepare in advance."
"Even if there is water, you don't know if it's contaminated tap water."
"Little fool, in the future, you have to learn to observe more like your smart husband, you haven't seen such a big water storage tower on the roof of this hotel, the water in it is pumped up by the pumping machine to preserve, and now the power has been out for more than two months, that is to say, if there is water inside, at least it will be pumped up at the beginning of the disaster."
"Oh, that's right."
"How? Isn't it a little bit of a worship of my husband?"
"Yes, yes, you're the smartest, but the only bad thing is that you can only take a cold shower if you have water."
Tingting pouted and looked a little lost.
"Haha, don't be discouraged yet, my husband will tell you one more thing, if there is really water in the water tower, then we can take a hot shower today, believe it or not?"
"Ah, really! How can you be so sure? ”
"They all said that you should learn to observe more, there is still so much solar energy on the edge of the water tower, plus the sun is shining high in the past two days, how can you be sure?"
"Ahaha~! Husband, you're so good, let's go to the bathroom and have a look."
Tingting happily pulled Wang Xi to the bathroom, first looked at Wang Xi with a nervous face, and then slowly stretched out a hand to open the water valve.
"Poof... ......"
At the same time as opening the water valve, the shower head above the two of them fell directly with cold water, but Tingting did not avoid it because it was cold water, but took Wang Xi's hand and jumped happily with water.
