I'm Hoarding for the Apocalypse Chapter 276 Speak Out for Her

276 Speak Out for Her

After dinner and a short rest, Du Yue and He Xing alighted from the car. After walking for an entire morning, they had to find a place to relieve their physiological needs. Otherwise, who knew how long it would take before they stopped again after they left in the afternoon? They were not on a self-driving tour; they were escaping. Everyone was on edge. Even the children they had seen before were sitting quietly by the roadside, no longer playing. As Du Yue looked at the nervous children, she could not help but recall how they had played around that night. It had only been a few days…

An hour pa.s.sed quickly. Everyone gathered and continued on their journey. The best thing about following Wan Dapeng and the others was that they did not have to find their own way. However, Du Yue still took out the map and looked at it carefully. After making sure that they were going in the right direction, she followed them with peace of mind.

They encountered many obstacles along the way. Du Yue could not use her inters.p.a.ce under the watchful eyes of the crowd. She could only follow He Xing and Wan Dapeng and move the obstacles away. At this moment, it fully demonstrated that unity was strength. Although their speed was a little slow, most of the obstacles could be cleaned up, and they continued to move forward.

After the sun set, they found a relatively open place to park the car and get ready to rest. Du Yue thought of the many people in Wan Dapeng’s base. They were all squeezed into pickup trucks or buses. It was not a problem to squeeze in when they were on the way there, but how were they going to sleep at night with so many people?

Du Yue was still thinking when she saw Wan Dapeng calling a few people. They started to set up tents by the side of the road. Their tents were huge, but they could not fit everyone. After arranging for the old, the weak, the sick, the children, and the women to stay in the tents, the remaining young and strong people squeezed into the cars and made do with it for the night.

Du Yue was used to the feigned civility between people in her previous life, but she did not like to interact with people in this life. This was the first time she had seen such a group of people who helped each other and were united and friendly. Even though Du Yue felt that she was cold and emotionless, her heart was still ruthlessly touched when she saw this scene. She softened inexplicably.

Du Yue kept looking outside quietly, and He Xing knew what she was thinking just by looking at her expression. “When we get to Jingluo, let’s help them more if we have the chance.”

Hearing He Xing’s words suddenly, Du Yue looked at him. She saw He Xing blinking his eyes. “My heart is too soft, and I can’t bear to see honest people suffer. So when we arrive in Jingluo, let’s help them if they need it, okay?”

Du Yue was both amused and helpless. She was also a little touched. He Xing’s words were clearly spoken from her perspective. He was worried that she would be too embarra.s.sed to say it, so he expressed it on her behalf and in such a frivolous way too. Du Yue pretended to think for a moment. After a long while, she said, “Alright then. I’ll go along with you.”

He Xing’s face lit up when he heard that. “Du Yue! You’re a really good person!”

Du Yue also smiled happily, not only because she was amused by He Xing’s tricks, but more because she saw that he could see through her heart and was willing to act with her. She was embarra.s.sed to express her feelings, so he helped express them. Whether it was her stubborn mouth or soft heart, or her fake indifference, he understood it all. In the cruel and merciless apocalypse, with his company, everything unknown became something worth looking forward to.

There was an old saying that said, ‘What you’re afraid of will come.’ On the afternoon of the third day after their departure, they were stuck on the road. It was not obstacles that blocked them but the main force of the second base. Du Yue got out of the car and stood beside it to look ahead. With her gla.s.ses on, she could clearly see that the area within 30 meters of her was filled with cars. There were probably many cars in the thick fog that she could not see clearly.

With the long line of vehicles blocking the way, they could not avoid it no matter how hard they tried. Just as Du Yue was about to return to the car, she saw a lot of people suddenly rush out of the thick fog on both sides of the road. These people moved very quickly and surrounded Du Yue’s and Wan Dapeng’s vehicles.

“Hand over all your supplies!” The leader shouted at them, and the others behind him followed suit.

“Hurry up! Hand over the food! Otherwise, don’t blame us for being impolite!”

“I’m telling you, if you don’t want to die, you’d better be sensible.”
