The grandson of Qin Old Man wore a tattered shirt and thin pants, with hair sticking out in all directions, looking like a little mess!
When Qin Old Man's grandson saw a stranger, he immediately shrank back and hurriedly escaped into the small tin house behind him.
Li Nan asked in confusion, "What is this...?"
Qin Old Man waved towards the tin house, saying, "Langzi, don't be afraid. This big brother is a good person!"
Qin Old Man's grandson peeked out with wide eyes, staring intently at Li Nan, seemingly very frightened.
At that moment, Qin Old Man sighed, "This child is also a poor soul. When I was wandering outside, I found him next to a garbage heap, abandoned and about to starve to death. I saved him with half a hard bun. After that, he came with me to the camp, but Brother Long said he was too small to do anything and only consumed food, wanting to throw him out. It was only because I insisted that Brother Long let him stay, saying we could share my rations to keep both of us alive. But this child is timid and can't stand strangers!"
After listening to Qin Old Man's words, Li Nan said, "So you took him in as your grandson?"
Qin Old Man nodded. "Yes, I felt sorry for this child and kept him by my side as my grandson. He doesn't even know his own name, so I gave him one. According to my generation's calculations, his name should have the character 'Lang' in it, so I called him Qin Lang!"
Li Nan smiled wryly and said, "In this apocalypse, there are too many joys and sorrows. You indeed have a compassionate heart!"
Qin Old Man waved his hand dismissively. "If I hadn't seen him, it would have been fine. But since I did see him, how could I not save this child?"
Li Nan nodded, seemingly in agreement with Qin Old Man's actions. "Then it seems your life is quite tight. I'll have Lin Hai send you more food and some clothes for the child!"
Qin Old Man called out to the shy Qin Lang, "Why are you so timid?"
Li Nan waved his hand and said, "It's nothing serious. He must have gone through too many scares during the apocalypse, which led to his current state. Children need to be guided slowly!"
Qin Old Man said, immediately picking up a small broken basket and shoveling a scoop from the nearby coal pile, then pouring it into the extinguished earthen stove.
Li Nan asked Qin Old Man, "How old is this child?"
Qin Old Man shook his head, "When I encountered him, he had a small pendant hanging around his neck, carved with a lively monkey. I suppose this child must be born in the Year of the Monkey; he should be ten years old this year!"
Li Nan murmured, "Ten years old, ten years old... that's about the same age as Li Da Peng!"
Qin Old Man didn't understand and asked, "Brother Li Nan likes this child?"
Li Nan nodded, "Who doesn't like children? They will have to bear the future of this world!" Changing the subject, Li Nan continued, "I have a son named Li Dapeng, who is about the same age as Qin Lang. The two of them could keep each other company. Tomorrow I'll ask Li Da Peng to invite Qin Lang over to play!"
Qin Old Man laughed, "That's something I desire! This little kid has been keeping me company all day long; it's quite dull and I've been tired of it for a long time!"
At that moment, Qin Lang, who was hiding in the tin shed, spoke up, "I won't be a bother if I accompany Grandpa!"
Hearing that the child finally spoke, Li Nan smiled and said, "He's still a grateful little fellow; a talent that can be nurtured!"
After meeting Qin Old Man's little grandson, Li Nan was quite cheerful. After chatting with Qin Old Man for a few more moments about family matters, he took his leave. He had great trust in Qin Old Man's skills; all that was left was to patiently wait.
Returning from Qin Old Man's workshop to Small Buildings, Li Nan noticed it was getting late and intended to go back and sleep. However, when he stepped into the building, he saw Mo Xiaohui sitting upright on the sofa.
Li Nan smiled and said, "It seems this little girl is quite concerned about me; she's actually waiting here for her husband to return!"
Just as Li Nan was secretly pleased, he noticed that Mo Xiaohui, sitting on the sofa, had her eyes tightly closed and seemed to have fallen asleep!
Li Nan let out a bitter sigh, thinking to himself, "Still not sincere enough!"
Seeing Mo Xiaohui leaning on the sofa, her brows relaxed and her sleep quite sweet, Li Nan felt content. "A beautiful woman, family; this is already very good!"
Li Nan stretched out his hands and gently placed them on Mo Xiaohui's body. Then he exerted strength and directly lifted her up. It was chilly in the living room, and how could Li Nan bear to let Mo Xiaohui sleep alone on the sofa?
Just as Li Nan was about to carry Mo Xiaohui upstairs, she stirred slightly, seemingly sensing the force on her body, and immediately woke up.
Mo Xiaohui opened her eyes and saw Li Nan's face, then scolded him, "What are you doing?"
Li Nan ignored her question and replied, "You’re asking me? What have you been doing?"
Mo Xiaohui felt light in his arms, as if he were holding a piece of exquisite jade—smooth and delicate.
Feeling a bit tense being held by Li Nan, she said, "I was sitting on the sofa waiting for you! You come back without calling me and start thinking about all sorts of nonsense!"
Li Nan grinned and said, "How am I thinking nonsense? Women just love to speculate wildly. I saw you sleeping on the sofa and was worried you'd catch a cold, so I wanted to carry you back to your room!"
Mo Xiaohui smiled at him. "Do you think I don't know your intentions?"
As they spoke, Li Nan had already stepped upstairs while Mo Xiaohui glanced sideways at him, realizing that he had no intention of taking her back to his room.
Seeing Mo Xiaohui's face flush with a hint of red, Li Nan chuckled and asked, "What's wrong? Are you shy?"
Mo Xiaohui shook her head, wrapping her arms around Li Nan's neck, and then softly murmured, "You've been busy outside all day; do you still have the energy?"
Li Nan chuckled, "You underestimate your man's fighting spirit. I am an undefeated warrior!"
Mo Xiaohui giggled, noticing that Li Nan had kicked the door open with a loud bang. She said, "Keep it down; others might not be asleep yet!"
Li Nan shrugged it off, "You're my wife; there's nothing to be shy about. If they want to listen, let them!"
Mo Xiaohui playfully punched Li Nan's chest, "Shameless, absolutely shameless!"
Her voice was very soft, but her words were sweet, and her eyes sparkled with laughter, truly igniting Li Nan's desire.
Li Nan embraced Mo Xiaohui and charged into his room. Before he could unleash his beastly instincts, Mo Xiaohui straightened up and wrapped her arms around his upper body, then playfully stuck out her tongue in a teasing manner.
Li Nan could hardly resist such temptation and immediately pushed Mo Xiaohui onto the bed. Like a wild beast, he passionately explored her body amidst whispers of affection and beads of sweat.
After their passionate encounter, Li Nan held the exhausted Mo Xiaohui in his arms and softly said, "You are the best gift that heaven has given me!"
Mo Xiaohui's cheeks were flushed with sweat; it seemed that their earlier activities had truly drained her energy. However, seeing Li Nan still full of vigor made her pout and say, "If you don't take care of me, this gift will be ruined before long!"
Li Nan smirked, leaning closer to Mo Xiaohui's ear and whispered, "Only a dead cow plows the field; you should cherish your husband's body more in the future!"
Mo Xiaohui pouted in mock anger, "You just take advantage of me and then act all innocent!"
Li Nan looked over Mo Xiaohui from head to toe with a teasing gaze and exclaimed, "Where's the advantage? It's you who seems to have hidden something of mine within your body!"
Mo Xiaohui's face was already flushed, and after Li Nan pointed it out, she lowered her head to look at the smooth surface beneath her, feeling very shy.
"You insisted on leaving that thing inside me... you bad guy. What if I get pregnant? What are we going to do then?"
Li Nan held Mo Xiaohui's small fists that were pounding on him, his expression turning serious. "If you get pregnant, we'll have the baby. I love children!"
Mo Xiaohui's expression shifted. "Under these circumstances, adult life is already nerve-wracking enough. Do we really want to pass this anxiety on to the next generation?"
"Things will get better. Trust me, whether it's you or our child, I will do my utmost to ensure that you both can live safely in this apocalypse. Believe me, I can do it!"
Mo Xiaohui wrapped her arms around Li Nan's neck. "I believe in you, but having a child is something that depends on fate!"
Li Nan held Mo Xiaohui tightly, refusing to let go. "I've lost family before, so I don't want to lose you. In the future, I will take you and our child to a paradise where we can live happily without zombies or mutated monsters, where the world is as it should be!"
Mo Xiaohui nodded. "I believe you can do it, and through our joint efforts, we will build our own ideal Platonic society!"
Li Nan happily embraced Mo Xiaohui, feeling very satisfied, when suddenly the lights in the room dimmed.
"Is it already ten o'clock?" Li Nan seemed to ask, while Mo Xiaohui tiredly replied, "It's time to sleep!"
Mo Xiaohui was exhausted, but Li Nan was full of energy and couldn't sleep at all. He playfully teased Mo Xiaohui a few times but received no response. Li Nan then said with disappointment, "Are you asleep?"
"I'm asleep!"
Li Nan burst out laughing. "You can still talk if you're asleep!"
"Dream talk!"
"Alright!" Li Nan muttered, then continued, "From now on, you need to pay more attention to the household matters, especially regarding Li Da Peng. I treat him like my own son and don't want him to go down the wrong path. Also, about that Qin Old Man from tonight, he has a little grandson who seems to be about the same age as Li Da Peng. They could be playmates..."
Mo Xiaohui turned around, "Are you done? Can someone get some sleep here?"
Li Nan spread his hands, "No more talking, time to sleep!"
Just as Li Nan was covering himself with the blanket, Mo Xiaohui suddenly burst into laughter beside him, "So it turns out that even you, the Mighty Bull, have times when you're too tired to stay awake!"
Li Nan replied in surprise, "What do you want to do?"
"A tired big yellow cow isn't interesting. Let me handle it..."
"Ah..."
