34: If we're going to leave, we'll leave together!

Su Mianmian was shocked to see so many cars.

For Shi Xu to assemble so many cars in such a short time, he was truly amazing!

Su Mianmian looked at Shi Xu, who was inspecting the cars, and felt like she had truly found a great support.

Shi Xu felt an intense gaze, and when he turned his head, he saw Su Mianmian staring at him intently.

"The cars I've inspected are ready to be collected," Shi Xu told her.

Su Mianmian nodded. One person inspected, and the other collected. They finished collecting them in no time.

Just as they were about to leave, a bomb streaked past the glass, heading towards them.

In that critical moment, Shi Xu quickly pushed Su Mianmian to the ground.

They were very close, and Su Mianmian could clearly feel his breath by her ear.

"Don't be afraid."

"I'll protect you."

Seeing Su Mianmian breathing cautiously, Shi Xu leaned into her ear and softly comforted her.

Su Mianmian nodded, not speaking.

The most important thing now was to escape.

Su Mianmian didn't know who these people were, to have set their sights on them.

A hint of killing intent flashed in her eyes. These people wanted to catch them like turtles in a jar, but they didn't even consider who they were.

Shi Xu held a gun in his hand. Seeing this, Su Mianmian took her own gun out of her space.

Silent stillness.

Su Mianmian had expected them to attack again, but apart from that one bomb, there was nothing else.

However, the danger was not over.

Su Mianmian knew they were definitely waiting for an opportunity.

It was her first time encountering such a situation, and her palms couldn't help but sweat.

Shi Xu didn't want to wait any longer. He didn't know when his people would arrive, and if they encountered an ambush, waiting here would be meaningless.

He thought for a moment and decided to break through.

"Mianmian, I'll clear a path in a moment, and you run out."

"Don't overthink it, just run."

"There are people waiting outside."

Shi Xu received a signal; his people were outside.

He quickly told Su Mianmian.

Upon hearing this, how could Su Mianmian leave Shi Xu alone in such a dangerous place?

"Shi Xu, if we're going, we go together!"

"Let's break out together."

Su Mianmian looked at Shi Xu with determination.

Shi Xu was touched by her words, but he didn't agree.

"If you're with me, I'll be distracted. You go out first. I'll only be at ease once you're safe."

"Be obedient."

Shi Xu said, leaving no room for argument.

Despite her reluctance, Su Mianmian agreed.

At this moment, she couldn't let Shi Xu be distracted.

Seeing her agree, Shi Xu immediately fired a shot to the left.

He fired as he moved forward, and Su Mianmian followed him, wary of people from other directions.

Upon hearing the gunshots and determining Shi Xu's location, those people immediately started firing in their direction.

Gunshots rang out, and Su Mianmian suppressed her fear, trying hard to stay alert.

Suddenly, a bullet shot towards Shi Xu. Seeing Shi Xu focused on the enemies in front, Su Mianmian pushed him.

The bullet whizzed past Su Mianmian's arm.

Fortunately, the wound wasn't big, and Su Mianmian didn't feel much.

Shi Xu turned his head and saw Su Mianmian's injured arm, his eyes practically spitting fire.

The bullets he fired were like gunpowder, and thudding sounds of bodies falling to the ground echoed.

Su Mianmian looked at Shi Xu's aggressive state and couldn't help but say, "Shi Xu, safety is most important."

Hearing her words, he regained a little sanity, and the bullets he fired became a bit more skillful.

Soon, Shi Xu had cleared a path.

As Su Mianmian left, she looked at Shi Xu's serious face, suppressed her worry, and ran forward.

She ran for about a kilometer before she met Shi Xu's people.

"You guys hurry and support Shi Xu."

"There are too many enemies there!"

Su Mianmian, ignoring her own breathlessness, urged them as soon as she saw them.

Upon hearing this, Shi Xu's people left three to protect her, and the rest all went to support Shi Xu.

Su Mianmian watched their retreating figures with tension, wondering how Shi Xu was doing at this moment.

After Su Mianmian left, Shi Xu had no more reservations.

Remembering the grenades Su Mianmian had just given him, he aimed at the area with the strongest firepower and threw one over.

With a loud 'bang', layers of fire erupted.

Su Mianmian heard the explosion and became extremely anxious.

She didn't know if that bomb was thrown by Shi Xu.

She could only pray that Shi Xu would be safe.

Shi Xu didn't expect the bomb to be so powerful. Even though he had retreated a lot, he was still hit a little by the blast.

He twitched his lips, a little annoyed.

Just as Shi Xu was about to continue forward, his people arrived.

"Boss, we're late," the newcomer said respectfully to Shi Xu.

Shi Xu shook his head and asked about Su Mianmian's safety.

Hearing that Su Mianmian was safe, he nodded in relief.

With reinforcements, the enemies were quickly annihilated.

Shi Xu looked at the last survivor with a mocking expression.

"Business is about integrity, not breaking promises."

"How can those who stab others in the back like you last long?"

After speaking, Shi Xu shot the man.

Killed with one shot, the man fell into a pool of blood, eyes wide open.

Shi Xu sneered, then walked away.

The remaining people dealt with the bodies.

Su Mianmian breathed a sigh of relief when she saw Shi Xu return safely.

She ran forward and saw his tattered clothes.

"What happened to you?"

"Were you hit by a bomb?"

Su Mianmian looked at Shi Xu, wanting to touch him but not daring to, her heart filled with anxiety.

"It's nothing, just some superficial wounds."

"How's your arm?"

Shi Xu asked worriedly.

The situation had been too urgent earlier, and he hadn't been able to ask.

Su Mianmian shook her head, indicating she was fine.

Country D could no longer be stayed in, so the two left for Country E overnight.

Country E had many weapons, and also a lot of meat and various seafood.

Su Mianmian felt that the people here were also very kind.

They knew that the people doing business with them were from Country Z, and they didn't adulterate anything, even giving them many gifts.

When Su Mianmian left, she felt a little reluctant.

"Mianmian, are you reluctant to leave here?"

"Should we stay two more days?"

Shi Xu saw Su Mianmian's reluctance and said seriously.

Su Mianmian quickly shook her head. The outbreak of the apocalypse was getting closer and closer.

They still had several countries they hadn't visited and couldn't waste any more time.

Shi Xu understood her concerns. In the subsequent countries, the two collected things very quickly.

Basically, two or three countries a week.

Su Mianmian was already numb to flying now.

The last stop was Country R.

Su Mianmian plundered it thoroughly.

She almost bought out all the stock.

By the time the two returned home, it was already late August.

"I didn't expect us to be gone for so long."

"I'm a little homesick."

Su Mianmian lay on the plane returning home, her face full of longing.

Shi Xu smiled, not exposing that she missed the domestic delicacies.

Foreign food was indeed not very tasty; he himself was a bit unwilling to eat it.

"Eat more when we go back."

"You can also stock up more."

"Doesn't the space preserve the original flavor of food?"

Shi Xu reminded her.

Su Mianmian immediately sat up straight upon hearing this. She looked at Shi Xu with regret and said angrily, "Shi Xu, why didn't I think of this?"

Shi Xu: "???"

He hadn't even realized why she was angry at herself.

"Tomorrow I'll buy out all the good food stores."

"I wonder if Mom and Dad have stocked up on delicacies."

"I definitely need to stock up on those ingredients."

The thought of not being able to eat delicious food after the apocalypse made Su Mianmian's heart ache.

Shi Xu didn't quite understand this feeling, so he nodded along with what she said.
