Hey, first of all, thanks for reading my lousy Machine Translation. To be honest, I’d really like it if you guys corrected the mistakes I made. But please speak nicely and politely. My heart is not strong enough to read your too-harsh comments. Have a nice day. 🙂
Thank you for reading this post, don't forget to subscribe!Chapter 9. (2/2)
These men were handsome, with physiques comparable to those of male models, thanks to regular training. Even in their new attire, each possessed a unique charm, making them quite pleasing to the eye.
Bai Qing Qing chuckled inwardly. She hadn’t expected that these powerful figures who wielded influence in the apocalypse would be left to carry timber in a small mountain village.
Shen Mingxuan saw Bai Qing Qing standing beside Fu Chen, a strange glint in his eyes, but surprisingly, he didn’t respond with his usual sharp tongue.
Tiger introduced the two to his friends, then led them to a wooden hut, saying, “In our village, unmarried men and women must live separately. The north side is where the men live. Girl, you have to come with me to the south side.”
Bai Qing Qing thought to herself, “No wonder I didn’t see Bai Tian Tian. The men have to move timber and do other work; I wonder if the women have to do anything too.” She looked at Fu Chen with a panicked expression, “Brother, I don’t want to be separated from you.”
“Little girl,” Tiger said, “Don’t make things difficult for me. The village rules cannot be broken.”
Fu Chen’s dark eyes were deep. He said, “Listen to me, go.”
Bai Qing Qing lowered her eyelashes and pursed her lips, saying, “Okay.”
She followed Tiger down the mountain towards the south, taking in the village around her. Because the sun was about to set, the beautiful daytime scenery seemed somewhat eerie.
Tiger led her to the southern village and told her to go up the mountain to sleep at the house where corn and chili peppers were hanging.
“Host, a side quest has been issued. Do you want to do it?”
Bai Qing Qing asked as she walked, “What are the benefits of doing a side quest?”
“The points earned from completing the quest can be exchanged for mutated plant seeds,” the system said.
Bai Qing Qing paused, asking, “You mean plant seeds that can be planted in space?”
“Yes, host.”
“Side quest activated. Quest 1: Help Awang meet Amei. Quest 2: Make them a couple.”
“…” System, are you kidding me?
Who is Awang? Who is Amei? She’s actually doing matchmaking amidst the apocalypse. It’s beyond ridiculous.
Fine, she’ll endure it for the quest points.
Following Hu Zi’s description, Bai Qing Qing found a wooden house, pushed open the fence, and stepped into the courtyard. She saw an old woman carrying a bucket of water, slowly climbing the steps. She quickly ran over, “Grandma, let me help you.”
The old woman smiled upon hearing her voice, “Thank you. You must be the new girl here.”
“Yes, my name is Bai Qing Qing.” Bai Qing Qing carried the water up the steps, quickly entered the house, and placed the bucket next to the water vat.
The old woman hobbled into the house and asked gently, “Qing Qing, have you had dinner yet?”
Bai Qing Qing and Fu Chen had eaten some dry rations on the way and hadn’t eaten anything that evening. They were indeed a little hungry, and she shook her head shyly, “No.”
The old woman took out some corn from the pot and said, “Here’s a piece of corn. You eat it first, I’ll go cook some rice.”
Bai Qing Qing took a bite of the corn. The sweet, tender yellow corn was delicious. She couldn’t help but take two more bites and went over to say, “Grandma, let me help you.”
“No need, I’m still able to move. How can I let a guest do anything?” The old woman refused her offer.
Bai Qing Qing, still eating her corn, looked around the wooden house. The room was simple, and the furniture was old, but it was very clean.
At dinner, she asked the old woman, “Grandma, do you know who Awang is?”
The old woman put down her bowl and said, “Which Awang are you looking for?”
Bai Qing Qing had a bad feeling: “Does every man in the village have the name Awang?”
The old woman chuckled and said, “Little girl, which young man are you dating? Didn’t he tell you his real name?”
“…” That’s right.
“What about Amei?” Bai Qing Qing asked again, feeling utterly hopeless. “Are all the girls in the village called Amei?”
“No, not at all.” The old woman put some cured meat on her plate. “You’re too thin, eat more.”
Bai Qing Qing, focused on completing her mission, asked, “How many Awangs are there in the village?”
“Let me think.” The old woman struggled for a while before finally naming three households.
Bai Qing Qing guessed that the old woman’s memory wasn’t very good, so she didn’t ask any more questions. The next day, she got up early, skipping breakfast to go out and look for someone.
Zhou Village could be developed into a tourist attraction; the scenery is beautiful, the air is fresh, and the golden sunlight filtering through the mist makes the village exceptionally beautiful.
The faint sound of roosters crowing drifted through the village, and white smoke rose from the rooftops of a few houses, finally bringing a touch of human warmth to the place.
Bai Qing Qing didn’t know how long Fu Chen would stay in Zhou Village. To complete her mission as quickly as possible, she needed to find the people quickly.
She first went to the house closest to the old woman. After walking for a few minutes, she finally reached the outside of the house and peered through the fence.
