Lu Shirong put the white pill box into Lu Tianxi's pocket to ensure that she could easily get it.
He stared at the other person's sickly fair face and warned in a gentle voice: "Don't endure it if you feel sick in the future. Remember to take medicine."
Being coaxed like a child made Lu Tianxi a little embarrassed, but she also enjoyed such tender care.
She touched the bulging pill box in her pocket, put a smile on her lips, and nodded obediently: "I know."
Lu Shirong smiled softly and spoke very slowly: "Just knowing is not enough, you have to do it next time."
"Well -" Lu Tianxi nodded obediently.
After she felt that the pain in her heart had completely disappeared, she told Lu Shirong what had happened before, with a rare expression of confusion on her face.
Lu Shirong sat in the driver's seat, his slender fingers resting on the steering wheel. The black color made the hand look beautiful and abstinent.
He stared at the irritation inadvertently revealed on Lu Tianxi's eyebrows and asked softly: "Do you want to save the villagers of Qingxi Village?"
"I have no idea."
Lu Tianxi actually wanted to save but didn't want to.
She never thought that she was a kind person. Except for her family, the life and death of others had nothing to do with her, and it would not cause too much ripples in her heart.
Lu Shirong asked thoughtfully: "If the apocalypse does not come and you happen to meet someone in need, will you lend a helping hand?"
Lu Tianxi's answer was uncertain: "Yes."
After experiencing the tragic survival difficulties of the last days, she almost forgot how to have normal contact with people in peacetime.
Lu Shirong gently tapped his fingers on the steering wheel, his classic and narrow eyes were slightly lowered, and his emotions were hidden.
His voice was very soft, and his tone was serious: "If you can, rescue if you want. If you encounter a situation that is beyond your control, you must know how to stop losses in time and follow your heart."
With the words "Follow one's heart", the tangled things in Lu Tianxi's heart were shattered, and he suddenly felt relieved.
"I'm so tired during the day, and I don't want to move now. I'd better wait for those people to come to the door on their own."
Some people's life and death don't need her to bear them.
It is a sentiment to save people, but it is a duty not to save people.
If Shouhou hadn't lied before, those unscrupulous people would definitely come to his door.
Dealing with these beasts seeking their own death will also help free the innocent villagers.
She was really too tired, and the big stone that was weighing on her heart was removed, and her eyelids started to fight up and down. After taking the pill, her body formed a self-protection state and quickly went into sleep.
Lu Shirong smiled softly and stroked her hair: "Okay, I'll accompany you."
Lu Tianxi tilted her head sleepily and looked at him with squinted sleepy eyes: "Brother-in-law came over so late at night, are you worried about me?"
"By the way, the Zhenglou Building was besieged by alien beasts. I made a deal with their person in charge, and I rushed over after the deal was concluded..."
Before he finished speaking, Lu Tianxi had already fallen asleep leaning on his seat.
Her breathing was light and even, and she was obviously in a deep sleep.
Lu Shirong closed his mouth and folded the seat down so that she could sleep more comfortably.
He put his hand on the neck pillow of Lu Tianxi's seat, pinched a strand of soft hair with his fingertips and rubbed it gently.
Lu Tianxi had not washed up after a busy day. His hair was messy and his face was a little dirty. The cold breath on his body was mixed with mud and a faint smell of evaporated sweat.
This girl had never suffered like this before. Ever since she had the dream that predicted the end of the world, her temperament seemed to have changed.
Through reports from the bodyguards who followed Lu Tianxi, Lu Shirong knew her shocking and ruthless behavior, and also knew that she was trying her best to suppress her conscience.
She was clearly forcing herself to harden her heart and abandon all her conscience and good intentions.
Just like just now, he was obviously worried about the villagers of Qingxi Village and had to find a suitable reason to take action.
Lu Shirong murmured softly: "Xiao Xi, don't let your heart be restrained by shackles, do whatever you want, I will be there for you in everything."
An inaudible word, with a serious and firm tone.
In the void on Lu Tianxi's right, the doomsday infrastructure system panel suddenly flashed.
[Side mission: Ask the host to rescue the 238 victims in Qingxi Village within 24 hours. 】
Lu Shirong let go of the strand of hair from his fingertips and looked sideways slightly. A line of words on the screen interface came into his eyes clearly.
While Lu Tianxi was sleeping, he stretched his hand towards the void on the right side and pressed his warm fingertips against the flickering screen.
The side mission was closed, and the white finger touched the prompt box of the button in the upper left corner. Soon, which missions the holder had accepted and what reward cards he had received were all displayed.
Lu Shirong scanned it briefly, remembered it in his mind, and clicked on the system instructions.
By the time he understood everything about the system, half an hour had passed.
Most of the tasks released by the system are random. Except for the novice period and primary tasks, the rest are main tasks and side tasks.
No transactions can be made in the doomsday infrastructure system, and you can only obtain card drawing opportunities by completing tasks.
Lu Tianxi currently has only two cards left - SSR ability card and SR defense card.
Lu Shirong opened the side mission released by the system half an hour ago.
Between [rejection] and [acceptance], the index finger falls on the latter.
He actually successfully accepted the mission!
Lu Shirong's eyes flashed slightly, and his elegant and handsome face looked surprised and shocked, with obvious confusion.
According to the doomsday infrastructure system he just learned about, except for the holder who can control it at will, outsiders cannot use it at all.
Looking at the countdown on the side mission, Lu Shirong raised his thin lips and smiled with great interest.
He raised his eyes and looked through the car window not far outside the car. Yun Hao, Chu Tang, and Zhu Que were standing together and whispering something.
Lu Shirong opened the car door very gently, using his body to block the cold wind pouring into the car, and closed the door quickly and lightly.
He glanced at the people sleeping in the car, turned around and walked towards Yun Hao and the others.
Seeing the man walking straight towards them, Chu Tang and Zhu Que tensed up.
Yun Hao nodded slightly and shouted respectfully: "Sir——"
He knew that Lu Tianxi not only relied on this fourth master, but also trusted him very much, so he treated him with respect.
Lu Shirong nodded his chin at Yun Hao and looked at Chu Tang and Zhu Que with clear eyes.
When the two of them were as nervous as facing a formidable enemy, Fourth Master Lu spoke in a gentle voice: "Xiao Xi has fallen asleep."
His attitude was neither warm nor indifferent, but very distant. The sense of distance that he inadvertently released was like smoke, without the slightest bit of popularity, and he completely lacked the aura of life that he had when he was in front of Lu Tianxi.
Zhu Que realized that Lu Shirong looked more dangerous than when he first met him. The fear conveyed by his subconscious made him unable to help but move his feet back slightly.
After realizing this embarrassing behavior, his face twisted slightly, his steps quickly returned to his original position, and he stood firmly.
Lu Shirong saw Zhu Que's small movements in his eyes, and a smile briefly disappeared in his eyes.
