8: Informing about the end times

"Mianmian, I think it's a very good thing that you're able to see people clearly now."

"You don't need to apologize to me."

"I feel that in this matter, I also did something wrong."

"I didn't ask you in time for the real reason why you wanted to divorce me. I even thought you were just suddenly feeling a bit down, and that you would get better over time."

"Now I understand that I still don't understand women well enough."

"Mianmian, from now on, let's just speak openly and honestly about anything, okay?"

Shi Xu rarely spoke at such length. If his assistant had heard him, he might even suspect that Shi Xu had been replaced.

Su Mianmian had read the novel, and she knew that Shi Xu was someone who didn't like to talk or explain things.

When she heard Shi Xu utter these words of explanation, she almost couldn't help but look at him with surprise.

Luckily, she held back, otherwise, she would definitely have aroused Shi Xu's suspicion.

"Shi Xu, let's agree to let this matter pass!"

"I have something more important to tell you now."

Su Mianmian felt that the apocalypse was the most pressing matter. Her explanation of the previous events to Shi Xu was also to make him believe that she had truly changed for the better now.

When Shi Xu heard Su Mianmian say there was something more important, he couldn't help but feel a little puzzled.

In his mind, only her talk of divorce was important. Could there be anything more important than that?

Shi Xu became a little curious.

Su Mianmian naturally noticed Shi Xu's curiosity. She lowered her head and pondered for a moment before speaking to Shi Xu.

"I had a dream, and in the dream, the entire world was covered in blood."

"We humans were also divided into several types of people: some became man-eating monsters, some became superpowered individuals with various abilities, and some were still ordinary people, just like now."

"This dream was so real, so real that I couldn't believe it was fake."

"You might not believe my dream, but I need to tell you something."

"This morning, because of this dream, I was a little distracted. When I was cutting something with a small knife, I accidentally cut my finger. I happened to be wearing the bracelet your mother gave me on my wrist, and I don't know what happened, but the moment the blood from my finger flowed onto the bracelet, a strong light appeared before my eyes, and then I was sucked into a space."

"The appearance of this space makes me believe that this world is truly about to change."

Su Mianmian didn't know if what she said would make Shi Xu believe her. Although she was a liberal arts student, her ability to organize her thoughts was really not very good!

In her original world, she was solely focused on studying acting. Her academic scores compared to others were definitely not great; she could only say that she had worked hard to score enough to get into the school she wanted to attend.

If Su Mianmian had known that she would transmigrate to the apocalypse after only a few years of schooling, she would definitely have studied other things, such as self-defense.

When Shi Xu heard Su Mianmian talk about her dream, he actually didn't believe it.

He thought she must have been overthinking things.

But when she mentioned the space, he became a little interested.

"What kind of space are you talking about?"

"Can you tell me about it?"

Shi Xu asked with an interested expression.

Su Mianmian knew that Shi Xu was only interested in the space. He would definitely have to believe in the existence of the space first before he would believe that the apocalypse was truly coming.

Su Mianmian didn't want to take Shi Xu into the space yet. Although the bracelet belonged to their family, she felt that if she didn't have anything to protect herself with when she first arrived in this world, that definitely wouldn't do.

So, she could only use this bracelet.

Su Mianmian told Shi Xu about the space for two reasons: one was to make him believe that what she said was true, and the second was that this space was, after all, their family heirloom. It wouldn't be good if she didn't say anything at all.

She was a kind-hearted person, but not entirely so.

"You can plant and raise animals in the space."

"There's also a warehouse inside where we can store things we collect from outside."

"The most important thing is that whatever goes in, comes out exactly the same."

"Shi Xu, do you think with a space appearing, can the apocalypse still be far off?"

After Su Mianmian briefly told Shi Xu about the space, she couldn't help but want to gauge his reaction.

Shi Xu didn't know how much pressure she was under to tell him this. She was worried he might send her to be dissected.

Although Su Mianmian felt her worry was superfluous, she didn't really know him, did she?

The Shi Xu written in the novel was, after all, a bit different from the one she saw now, so Su Mianmian's worry was quite normal.

She also didn't know if her big gamble would pay off in the end.

Now it depended on Shi Xu's reaction.

Su Mianmian's face was etched with "nervousness."

Seeing this, Shi Xu thought she was panicking about the unknown world. He pondered for a moment, walked over to Su Mianmian, and patted her shoulder, comforting her: "Mianmian, it's okay. No matter whether what you said happens or not, I will protect you."

When Su Mianmian heard Shi Xu say that, she no longer cared about him patting her shoulder.

She looked at him with surprise and said, "You really won't abandon me?"

Shi Xu didn't expect her to say that. He looked at her with an amused expression and said, "You're my wife, why would I abandon you?"

Upon hearing this, Su Mianmian immediately felt a little embarrassed.

She felt that the question she had just asked was truly superfluous. Shi Xu hadn't even abandoned the Original Body's Owner, who had divorced him, so how could he abandon her, who hadn't divorced him yet?

Thinking of this, Su Mianmian immediately felt that she was truly overthinking things.

"Shi Xu, I was just a little scared!"

"Now that we have a space, shouldn't we hurry and stock up on supplies?"

"Oh, and we should also stock up on weapons. Those mutated people are terrifying. Not only do they look terrifying, but their body structures are also different."

"Their hearts are in their chests. We have to pierce their hearts for them to truly die."

"Except for their hearts and necks, the rest of their bodies are rock-hard. Ordinary weapons can't pierce their bodies at all."

"Be especially careful not to get injured by them, otherwise, you might turn into a monster just like them."

Su Mianmian said whatever came to mind. Only after she finished speaking did she realize that Shi Xu was looking at her with a probing expression.

She realized she seemed to have said too much and instantly closed her mouth.

Seeing Su Mianmian like this, Shi Xu couldn't help but smile.

However, the doubt in his mind had not disappeared.
