380: Your hairstyle, my face
Lu Yu picked up the sponge puff from the sink and gently cleaned the stray hairs from Jiang Fei’s body, his voice tender: "Fei Fei, this hairstyle looks even better than your previous long hair."
"I'll shave my head too in a bit, and get the same hairstyle as you."
Knowing that Lu Yu felt bad for her and wanted to accompany her in being bald, Jiang Fei pretended to be serious: "You can't shave it. Your hairstyle is my pride."
"You look very handsome like this."
Jiang Fei raised her hand and gently kneaded Lu Yu's face.
It was exactly like how she usually kneaded Big Huang and Xiao Hei.
Lu Yu helplessly curved his lips, then grabbed Jiang Fei's hand and pulled her into his embrace.
Even with her in his arms, he still felt a sense of panic.
"Luckily, you're alright."
"Otherwise, I really don't know how I would live."
Fei Fei was like the backbone supporting him.
Without his backbone, he would completely fall apart.
Yesterday's sudden meteor shower had clearly terrified Lu Yu.
Jiang Fei leaned against Lu Yu's chest and softly said: "Don't be afraid, I'm here."
"I'm always here."
Just like you are always by my side.

It was unsafe outside, so Jiang Fei and the others temporarily stayed in the Supermarket.
Xu Qianyao, Zhu Xiaowu, and Yan Tianjie lived in Su Liuyuan's Room 4.
Whenever the three showed signs of waking up, Su Liuyuan would be ready.
Taking advantage of their groggy and slow state right after waking, he would quickly feed them a packet of nutrient solution, then knock them out with a stick.
He didn't give them any chance to fully wake up.
Three days passed in a flash.
Jiang Fei exited the Supermarket to check the situation outside.
As soon as she stepped out, she suddenly felt an intense heat all around her.
Countless meteors, engulfed in bright flames, fell from the sky, as if to destroy everything in the world.
Jiang Fei quickly re-entered the Supermarket, her heart pounding.
It was terrifying.
Just then, Su Liuyuan came out of the pet room, holding cans of food for the three cubs.
Seeing Jiang Fei return, he asked:
"Team Leader, is the meteor shower over?"
Jiang Fei shook her head: "Let's wait a few more days."
"How are Qian Yao and the others doing?"
"Not bad. With daily nutrient solutions, their complexions have improved. I just knocked them out again."
As if remembering something, Su Liuyuan lowered his voice and said to Jiang Fei: "I think Xiao Hei has been acting strange lately."
"Xiao Hei not only shares his food and toys with Xiao Hui, but he also often sticks to it and no longer plays with Big Huang."
"I suspect Xiao Hei has a crush on Xiao Hui."
Jiang Fei couldn't help but look into the distance.
Lu Yu was playing kickball with the three cubs.
As Lu Yu kicked the ball away, Big Huang immediately got lazy and lay down on the ground.
Xiao Hei and the gray wolf ran to chase the ball.
During this, Xiao Hei deliberately bumped the gray wolf, just to make it slow down so he could grab the ball himself.
"Xiao Hei's bump was quite forceful, it doesn't look like he likes Xiao Hui."
"You're probably overthinking it."
Su Liuyuan, who also saw this scene, gave up the idea of setting up Xiao Hei and Xiao Hui.
After all, who would be so rough with their future wife?
Little did they know, Xiao Hei was thinking:
I got to snuggle with Xiao Hui!
Hehe!
And the gray wolf growled:
Stupid dog, don't run! I'm going to bite you to death today!
In the end, Xiao Hei was pinned down and severely beaten by Xiao Hui.
Fortunately, Su Liuyuan came over to feed them, rescuing Xiao Hei.

After waiting another week in the Supermarket, Jiang Fei exited again.
The sky was gloomy, and the meteor shower had ended.
The air was filled with a smell similar to rust.
The earth was riddled with holes, and many meteor fragments were scattered around.
They couldn't stay in An Province anymore.
Not to mention that all the logistics warehouses in the province were destroyed, and a meteor shower might still descend.
There were too many impact craters on the ground to drive, so Jiang Fei took out a helicopter.
Before leaving, she quickly collected a batch of meteor fragments.
Meteor fragments, in addition to being collectible and made into artworks, also have scientific research value.
For example, by studying the composition and structure of meteors, one can understand the material composition of other planets and environmental conditions beyond Earth.
Although it was the apocalypse now, the Research Institute had no energy to study these things.
But the apocalypse would end one day, and they could save them for future research.
Jiang Fei started the helicopter and flew away from An Province.
Through the downward-facing window, she saw the pockmarked ground below.
All the buildings in the city were destroyed by the meteor shower, leaving a scene of desolation.
The neighboring Jin Province was also affected by the meteor shower's shockwave.
Several towns and villages had become ruins.
Worried that a meteor shower might suddenly descend, Jiang Fei dared not stop to rest at all.
She flew for a whole day, reaching Xuan Province, Yun City, where they had been before.
This place had not been hit by the meteor shower and still maintained a high temperature.
The temperature of 56℃ felt like being thrown into a hot furnace.
But it was better than meteors falling from the sky.
Jiang Fei thought, then landed in an open space.
She put away the helicopter and entered the Supermarket to bring out Lu Yu and the others.
Including the gray wolf and the Super Awesome RV.
Lu Yu turned on the air conditioning in the car.
Xu Qianyao, Zhu Xiaowu, and Yan Tianjie lay on the sofa bed in the RV's living room.
Everyone's forehead and neck were red and swollen.
It was from Su Liuyuan hitting them for these ten days.
Without any interference, Xu Qianyao and the other two gradually woke up.
Their eyes were full of confusion.
Xu Qianyao: "How am I in your car...?"
Zhu Xiaowu: "Hiss—when did my leg get injured?"
Yan Tianjie: "Weren't we going to An Province? Why are we stopped here?"
"Huh? Where did the brace on my arm come from?"
Having been in a coma for too long, the three people's memories were jumbled.
To prevent them from remembering later, Jiang Fei still took out the Forgetfulness Spray and sprayed each of them once.
The three people's eyes instantly became vacant and dull.
System: [Host, what do you want them to forget?]
"Ten days ago, I gave them membership cards, and they entered the Supermarket."
After the last word was spoken, Xu Qianyao and the other two's pupils refocused.
Jiang Fei told them about the An Province meteor shower.
After Jiang Fei's reminder, the three finally recalled what had happened, and a wave of fear washed over them.
Xu Qianyao's face turned a shade paler: "I've never been that close to death."
"We had nowhere to run, we could only wait there to die."
Traces of fear remained in Zhu Xiaowu's eyes: "I even prepared to be burned to ashes at the time..."
"Captain Jiang, where are we now?"
"Yun City, Xuan Province." Jiang Fei said, half-truthfully:
"My RV has been specially modified and can barely withstand the impact."
"When the second meteor shower started, I drove you out."
"Your injuries were bandaged by Lu Yu and me."
"Everything in An Province was destroyed by the meteor shower. We'll rest in Yun City for a few days, then return to Huaxia Base."
To this, Xu Qianyao and the other two had no objections.
The logistics warehouse was gone, the locator was gone, what would they stay outside for if not to go home?
Zhu Xiaowu scratched his head, curious: "The impact of a meteor is enough to destroy a city, Captain Jiang, what was your car modified with?"
