Qin Yue had not been so nervous for a long time, although since the end of the world, he was being very alert every day, especially after Wu Jiang betrayed him. So, even if he had new teammates again, he dared not trust anyone anymore. He would weigh the pros and cons, judge the situation, decide on the most rational choice, and would no longer take risks for others.
Except for Jiang Nian, she was the only softness in his heart, and also his only weakness. She was the only person who could let him lower his defensiveness and vigilance. Just like now, he was afraid that Jiang Nian would refuse, and even more afraid that Jiang Nian would say that she didn’t like him.
In fact, he thought previously that he would postpone his confession for a while, at least after being a little certain of Jiang Nian’s intentions towards him, but today, when he saw Jiang Nian wielding a knife and fighting the zombies, risking her life… he remembered that this world was inherently dangerous. Yes, people were dying every day, and no one could guarantee that they would live for another day.
So he didn’t want to wait any longer.
“Niannian, if I met before the apocalypse, when the world was still safe, I would definitely wait for you to understand my intentions, pursue you slowly, and wait for you to like me… But now, I don’t want to wait that long, because I can’t afford to wait. I’m afraid that there is not enough time, I’m afraid of accidents, and I don’t want to regret it tomorrow. I don’t want to die suddenly, while you don’t even know that I like you very much, while I didn’t confess my feelings to you yet. I like you, I want to protect you, of course, maybe you don’t need my protection, but I want to protect you, no matter how strong you are, I want to protect you. With me, you can rest and no longer need to be always powerful.” (T/N: Awwwww my heartttt)
As Jiang Nian remained silent, Qin Yue’s heart became more nervous by the second, and he hurriedly said: “Niannian, I know that what I’m saying may be too sudden. Don’t rush to reject me, you can think about it…”
“I won’t think about it.”
“…Huh?”
“Can I take all of these?”
Qin Yue lowered his eyes and saw Jiang Nian’s eyes shining, looking at him expectantly. He nodded and his heart beat faster: ” Well, these are all for you, do you like it?”
Jiang Nian smiled: “Thank you, I like it, I like it very much!”
Qin Yue was relieved. He saw that Jiang Nian didn’t seem to be repulsive nor shun him, so he was very happy. “Niannian, do you accept?” (T/N: he’s asking her if she’s accepting his confession/ agreeing on being his gf)
Jiang Nian thought for a while and then said seriously: “It’s really hard to find someone who can understand me. You know me very well, so I think we can give it a try.”
…Try it?
……It’s a yes? ? ?
Qin Yue couldn’t react for a moment, and then he was pleasantly surprised. He held Jiang Nian’s hand and raised his sharp eyebrows, and a smile dancing in his dark eyes: “Niannian, I will not make you regret choosing me. I will love you and protect you all my life.”
Jiang Nian nodded and added: “I also want you to give me shiny gifts. I like shiny things.”
Qin Yue laughed and pulled Jiang Nian, hugging her, “Okay.”
He felt that even if Jiang Nian wanted the moon in the sky, he could always find a way to pick it up and send it to her.
Jiang Nian patted Qin Yue, thinking that he was a good boyfriend material.
…
Li Ming and Captain Li were not very surprised when they learned that Jian Nan was finally with Qin Yue. After all, Qin Yue was way too obvious. The man was cold, but melted like snow whenever he was facing Jian Nan, not to mention that he liked to follow Jiang Nian whenever he had free time.
Jiang Nian was concerned about the future of mankind. She didn’t care about anything except the tasks, and she never took the matter of dating seriously. It inevitably made people anxious. They originally thought that Qin Yue had a long way to chase his wife, but didn’t expect it to be done this quickly!
In fact, the most surprised ones were the Jian family. After all, Jiang Nian’s previous performance could be described as a heart like water, and she had no intention of wanting to fall in love. Then she suddenly changed her mind and became a couple with QinYue… What great changes could have happened in the meantime?
Jiang Nian thought about it, wasn’t it indeed a big change? She originally thought that no one in this world really knew her, no one could understand her heart, when in fact Qin Yue did!
Such a smart boyfriend was hard to find, and she was not stupid, so she naturally had to hold him in the palm of her hand.
Mother Jiang was puzzled: “Does Xiao Qin know you well? Why don’t I know?”
Thinking of her large gold space, she nodded solemnly, “Of course, I think he knows me best in the whole world!”
Mother Jiang still didn’t understand, but she was still very happy. Their two families had been together for so long. Qin Yue’s parents were honest, honest, pure and down-to-earth. Qin Yue was also a reliable man and had the strength to protect people. She was relieved to give her daughter to Qin Yue, so she he simply didn’t bother to manage or niptick.
Shen Ran was very unhappy, but he had a task in hand and couldn’t interfere. How could his sister Jiang be fooled by a smelly man?
Jiang Yuan was not happy either. He was about to have a particularly powerful brother-in-law, and he was not his brother-in-law’s opponent at all. How could he protect his sisiter if she was bullied in the future? Just thinking about it, Jiang Yuan had a special sense of urgency. He couldn’t wait to crush his time in one day and use every minute and every second to make himself stronger! Although his elder sister was very powerful herself, who knows …
Of course, the happiest ones, apart from Qin Yue, were the Qin parents. After all, where else could they find such a good daughter-in-law? Even their son became pleasing to the eyes. They thought he was an elm bump* and would be an old bachelor for a lifetime, but they didn’t expect themselves to see badly. Their son did such a big feat without even speaking, its’s a thing!
The Qin Jiang family also had a reunion dinner to talk about it. At the dinner table, Qin’s mother especially instructed Qin Yue to treat Jiang Nian well and not to bully Jiang Nian Yunyun. How could Qin Yue bully Jiang Nian? He answered honestly, while Jiang Nian nodded and promised: “Uncles and aunts, don’t worry, I will treat Qin Yue well, and I will be responsible for him.”
She was very greedy, and since she was greedy for money (and he promised to give her money), they naturally have to love each other and stay together.
…Cough!
Jiang father sighed, saying that this silly girl was not reserved at all; of course Qin’s father and Qin’s mother replied that it was good. Shen Ran’s mouth was flat and he was a bit sad, why must his sister Jiang be seduced and stolen by the pig? Jiang Yuan desperately chopped rice, with the mindset “You must eat hard to be strong, and be ready to beat up your brother-in-law at any time”. Qin Yue’s ears moved, feeling itchy in his heart and a little restless.
After dinner was over, Qin Yue and Jiang Nian walked downstairs, holding hands. Qin Yue touched the calluses on Jiang Nian’s palm. It was a bit rough. It was caused by holding a weapon for a long time, but her hands were very small. His hand could circle around hers easily.
He suddenly asked: “You are responsible to me?”
“Yeah.” Wasn’t this a matter of course? “What’s the matter?”
Qin Yue raised his eyebrows and chuckled: “Niannian, how are you responsible to me?”
This was indeed a problem. Jiang Nian thought about it seriously and took a diamond ring out of her storage space, then put it on Qin Yue: “Don’t worry, although I lose my senses when I see the money, I will not break up because of gold. Since I promised you, then you are my person!”
(T/N: overbearing CEO-like FL x damsel-in-distress ML)
“………???”
Qin Yue looked at the ring in his hand, a little silly for a while, why did she put the ring on himself? In fact, he just wanted to tease her with bad intentions…
Jiang Nian was quick with her hands and had already brought out another ring in the meantime. At first glance, the two rings were of the same style. They were prepared long ago. The diamonds on the ring were very big, she put it on, a crooked smile on her face.
The corners of Qin Yue’s mouth couldn’t stop turning upwards, and pressed again: “Niannian, are you proposing to me?”
Jiang Nian glanced at him: “What are you thinking about, this is our couple ring.”
“…oh.”
“I will prepare the wedding ring later.”
“…”
……Qin Yue didn’t know whether to cry or to laugh for a while, But he was so happy that he rubbed Jiang Nian’s head, her behavior was really straightforward and so lovely.
Jiang Nian still had some regrets. Originally, she wanted the pair of rings to be made of gold, but big gold was too fragile, and was easy to break. After thinking about it, the diamonds were harder and more resistant (to beating hh).
…
Jiang Nian and Qin Yue’s affairs were very lively in Xingfu Community for a while. At that time, even watching Jiang Nian and Qin Yue walking hand in hand on the street could become a whimsical talk! Not only the happy community, but outside as well gossiped about their relationship.
“Mom, I heard that District Chief Jiang and Captain Qin came out for a walk!”
“Oh, I heard that District Chief Jiang and Captain Qin were holding hands!”
“I heard that the female pig of Chief Jiang’s house had thirteen piglets. Half of them were given to Captain Li and brought back to the team. I saw it with my own eyes. The piglets looked so beautiful!”
“District Chief Jiang and Captain Qin…eh? Thirteen were born! Then we next year will we be able to eat pork?”
“When District Chief Jiang and Captain Qin get married, maybe we can get a dip and have a bite of pork!”
“… Gulp (ˉ﹃ˉ)”
The attention shifted. The people who originally were watching the lively scene of the District Chief Jiang and Captain Qin spreading dog food, at this time, were hoping that they will get married soon. No, let the pigs grow up and fatten before they get married. Just thinking about it, everyone’s saliva was dripping down……
……
Since having a boyfriend, Jiang Nian had a very happy time every day. Even sitting at home without doing anything could also enrich her large treasury, as the gains doubled with two people working together. It’s true fully understanding one another was really the best thing in the world.
Jiang Nian liked Qin Yue more and more. Before, she was blinded by gold and never saw Qin Yue’s goodness. Fortunately, she regained her senses before it was too late.
(T/N: Idk why but I think Jian Nan is comparing gold with a gold mine (Qin Yue) hhh)
Since having a girlfriend, Qin Yue was also very happy, and he found that Jiang Nian’s mind was very simple and she was easy to please, just give her some beautiful little gifts and she could fly with joy, really silly. If he knew it would be so easy to make her happy, he shouldn’t have been timid and should have showered her with all the beautiful things in the world. How much time he had wasted before…
The two dated publicly for a year. The piglets had grown into big fat pigs under the expectation of everyone, and they had also been favored by everyone in the happy community. Which one goes out to complete a task and doesn’t bring back grass to feed them? And watches them while drooling? Fortunately, there were three little sows in the litter. Two of them were taken away by Captain Li. Jiang Nian still had one left. There are piglets in her belly again, and if this continued on, Jian Nan might as well transform into a pig breeder.
In the second year in the safe zone, the happiness community was particularly lively, because the Jiang family began to slaughter pigs and make bacon and sausages. Many people in the community came to help. Don’t mention bones, those who helped could even bring back a kilo or two of meat. Jiang Nian was still the master, and she decided that everyone could get together to have a reunion dinner. After all, it was not easy to live to this day, so they were all happy.
This is great, the silly girl is giving benefits again! The neighbors shook their heads twice, then immediately went home to see if there was anything to eat, to add a dish to the table if they could, if not, they could always contribute by bringing water and lighting fire; the atmosphere was harmonious and lively. Qin Yue naturally came to join in the excitement and took a nylon bag containing half-fried peanuts from his space. Depending on the situation, he took out a few cans of beer. Even if he joined the fun, he mustn’t be any less vigilant and alert.
When Captain Li learned about it, he personally sent some cabbage and carrots, saying it was to contribute to the joy. Stir-fried pork with cabbage, stewed pork ribs with radish, make do, these dishes were considered a delicacy in the apocalypse. Today, Wangcai had plenty of meat, so he didn’t need to run outside to catch small fish and eat secretly in the kitchen.
Jiang Nian felt it was a pity. After all, there were still a lot of fruits and vegetables in her space, all of which were grown by her during the past year, and eaten by her and her family. Everyone was enjoying the food… After all, she had a lot of money and had to be always on guard, so she could only eat alone.
Jiang Nian leaned on the fence of the balcony and looked at the noisy neighbors downstairs with interest.
“Why are you here alone?” Qin Yue suddenly appeared out of nowhere. He stood behind her and gently held her hand. Jiang Nian turned her head, leaned on the balcony rail, looked at him and shook her head with a smile.
Qin Yue rubbed the calluses on the girl’s palm and then smiled.
As long as he was by Jiang Nian’s side, no matter if it’s the apocalypse, he was at peace and warm.
No matter where he was, whether it was safe or dangerous, as long as he thought of Jiang Nian, his heart was always warm and soft.
He thought over and over again, hesitated for a while, then asked carefully, with a hint of probing: “Niannian, shall we get married?”
Jiang Nian simply answered: “Okay.”
Qin Yue felt that at this moment, he was a hundred times more delighted than his escape from the zombies.
…
Wu Jiang was also married a long time ago. He married a woman named Chen Li. That woman’s father was the top ten gang boss before the outbreak of the zombie virus. After the apocalypse, he gained the dual power of thunder and fire, raised a group of younger brothers and brought them to steal and plunder. The prison established a security base. Wu Jiang took his team all the way north, but unfortunately encountered zombies on the road. His people were frightened and scattered. He happened to be rescued by Boss Chen who was passing by when he was in distress.
When Chen Li saw Wu Jiang, she immediately said she wanted to marry him.
Of course Wu Jiang didn’t want to. This Chen Li was not only ugly, but also a big fat woman weighing more than two hundred catties. She was also very grumpy. She was jealous of any good-looking woman, and thought that everyone should worship her. He didn’t even want to look at her, so how could he marry her? But in the end he still married her because he couldn’t refuse.
Neither Boss Chen nor Chen Li were easy to provoke. Boss Chen took people to occupy the prison at the beginning, and recruited some criminals who were jailed then into their team. They were extremely evil even before the virus outbreak, and in the apocalypse, they awakened their abilities, so they wreaked havoc everywhere they went.
Under such circumstances, could Wu Jiang refuse? So he could only marry Chen Li. The horrible thing was that a few days after he married Chen Li, he found that Chen Li actually fell in love with another handsome man, and even went and lived with him under the same roof! It’s a pity that this situation was not a big deal in the eyes of the others. Women can take in many men, and men can have several women. With time, everyone got used to this rule.
Wu Jiang’s expression was distorted with anger, but he did not dare to say one more word. He had no courage to confront them, so what could he do except swallow his grievances?
Since the beginning of the apocalypse, three large-scale bases were established in the country, they are Longfei, Xiwang (hope), and Guangming (light). In addition, there were some small survivor bases affiliated with one of these three bases. Boss Chen had been in prison for a long time, and the materials rapidly depleted, so their team opted for invasion and looting. Anyone who surrenders would stay alive, and everyone else would be killed, regardless if they were men, women or children.
Wu Jiang was frightened by the bloody massacre of Boss Chen and he had nightmares everyday, but he also envied Boss Chen, and Boss Chen had a hundred of answers to a single call**. Within the past six months, he managed to gather thousands of ability users in his hands, whom ability should not be underestimated. He dreamed, if he ever took over the position of Boss Chen, the first thing he would do is repudiate Chen Li, that ugly woman!
The bloody slaughter of Boss Chen naturally resulted in numerous enemies, and it also attracted the attention of the central government, who sent someone to investigate in private.
Qin Yue was preparing for the wedding with Jiang Nian, when Li Ming came and said to him : “When I was on my mission, I met Boss Chen. Do you know who I saw next to Boss Chen? Wu Jiang! He is still alive.”
Qin Yue froze for a moment when he heard the name Wu Jiang. The name seemed to have been fresh in his memory a long time ago, as if it was dug from him recalling the last century, when in fact, he should have never forgot him and should’ve carved his name onto his bones.
He smiled, his handsome face even more stern: “Unexpectedly, he would follow Boss Chen, so he might not be alive for long.”
To deal with Boss Chen, this kind of cancer that endangers mankind, it was natural for the three major bases to act together. Wu Jiang helped the evil-doer, so how could he live?

So I figured I’ll post the chapter now since I gotta take my first dose of vaccine tomorrow (wish me luck). One more chapter to go until the end of the arc (a little more than one but oh well).
Edit: So a reader reminded me that chapter 91 was not translated, I’ll probably upload it separately as well as re-translate from chapter 92 to 95. So when do you want me translate them? (I’ll probably not announce them on Novelupdates to respect the previous author, except c91. I’ll see where I can put them and will then share the link with you guys.)
Please report us if you find any errors so we can fix it asap!

Jiang Nian smiled: “Thank you, I like it, I like it very much!”
Qin Yue was relieved. He saw that Jiang Nian didn’t seem to be repulsive nor shun him, so he was very happy. “Niannian, do you accept?” (T/N: he’s asking her if she’s accepting his confession/ agreeing on being his gf)
Jiang Nian thought for a while and then said seriously: “It’s really hard to find someone who can understand me. You know me very well, so I think we can give it a try.”
…Try it?

Qin Yue couldn’t react for a moment, and then he was pleasantly surprised. He held Jiang Nian’s hand and raised his sharp eyebrows, and a smile dancing in his dark eyes: “Niannian, I will not make you regret choosing me. I will love you and protect you all my life.”

…
Wu Jiang was also married a long time ago. He married a woman named Chen Li. That woman’s father was the top ten gang boss before the outbreak of the zombie virus. After the apocalypse, he gained the dual power of thunder and fire, raised a group of younger brothers and brought them to steal and plunder. The prison established a security base. Wu Jiang took his team all the way north, but unfortunately encountered zombies on the road. His people were frightened and scattered. He happened to be rescued by Boss Chen who was passing by when he was in distress.
When Chen Li saw Wu Jiang, she immediately said she wanted to marry him.
Of course Wu Jiang didn’t want to. This Chen Li was not only ugly, but also a big fat woman weighing more than two hundred catties. She was also very grumpy. She was jealous of any good-looking woman, and thought that everyone should worship her. He didn’t even want to look at her, so how could he marry her? But in the end he still married her because he couldn’t refuse.
Neither Boss Chen nor Chen Li were easy to provoke. Boss Chen took people to occupy the prison at the beginning, and recruited some criminals who were jailed then into their team. They were extremely evil even before the virus outbreak, and in the apocalypse, they awakened their abilities, so they wreaked havoc everywhere they went.
Under such circumstances, could Wu Jiang refuse? So he could only marry Chen Li. The horrible thing was that a few days after he married Chen Li, he found that Chen Li actually fell in love with another handsome man, and even went and lived with him under the same roof! It’s a pity that this situation was not a big deal in the eyes of the others. Women can take in many men, and men can have several women. With time, everyone got used to this rule.
Wu Jiang’s expression was distorted with anger, but he did not dare to say one more word. He had no courage to confront them, so what could he do except swallow his grievances?
Since the beginning of the apocalypse, three large-scale bases were established in the country, they are Longfei, Xiwang (hope), and Guangming (light). In addition, there were some small survivor bases affiliated with one of these three bases. Boss Chen had been in prison for a long time, and the materials rapidly depleted, so their team opted for invasion and looting. Anyone who surrenders would stay alive, and everyone else would be killed, regardless if they were men, women or children.
Wu Jiang was frightened by the bloody massacre of Boss Chen and he had nightmares everyday, but he also envied Boss Chen, and Boss Chen had a hundred of answers to a single call**. Within the past six months, he managed to gather thousands of ability users in his hands, whom ability should not be underestimated. He dreamed, if he ever took over the position of Boss Chen, the first thing he would do is repudiate Chen Li, that ugly woman!
The bloody slaughter of Boss Chen naturally resulted in numerous enemies, and it also attracted the attention of the central government, who sent someone to investigate in private.
Qin Yue was preparing for the wedding with Jiang Nian, when Li Ming came and said to him : “When I was on my mission, I met Boss Chen. Do you know who I saw next to Boss Chen? Wu Jiang! He is still alive.”
Qin Yue froze for a moment when he heard the name Wu Jiang. The name seemed to have been fresh in his memory a long time ago, as if it was dug from him recalling the last century, when in fact, he should have never forgot him and should’ve carved his name onto his bones.
He smiled, his handsome face even more stern: “Unexpectedly, he would follow Boss Chen, so he might not be alive for long.”
To deal with Boss Chen, this kind of cancer that endangers mankind, it was natural for the three major bases to act together. Wu Jiang helped the evil-doer, so how could he live?

So I figured I’ll post the chapter now since I gotta take my first dose of vaccine tomorrow (wish me luck). One more chapter to go until the end of the arc (a little more than one but oh well).
Edit: So a reader reminded me that chapter 91 was not translated, I’ll probably upload it separately as well as re-translate from chapter 92 to 95. So when do you want me translate them? (I’ll probably not announce them on Novelupdates to respect the previous author, except c91. I’ll see where I can put them and will then share the link with you guys.)
Qin Yue had not been so nervous for a long time, although since the end of the world, he was being very alert every day, especially after Wu Jiang betrayed him. So, even if he had new teammates again, he dared not trust anyone anymore. He would weigh the pros and cons, judge the situation, decide on the most rational choice, and would no longer take risks for others.Except for Jiang Nian, she was the only softness in his heart, and also his only weakness. She was the only person who could let him lower his defensiveness and vigilance. Just like now, he was afraid that Jiang Nian would refuse, and even more afraid that Jiang Nian would say that she didn't like him.In fact, he thought previously that he would postpone his confession for a while, at least after being a little certain of Jiang Nian's intentions towards him, but today, when he saw Jiang Nian wielding a knife and fighting the zombies, risking her life he remembered that this world was inherently dangerous. Yes, people were dying every day, and no one could guarantee that they would live for another day.So he didn't want to wait any longer.Niannian, if I met before the apocalypse, when the world was still safe, I would definitely wait for you to understand my intentions, pursue you slowly, and wait for you to like me But now, I don't want to wait that long, because I can't afford to wait. I'm afraid that there is not enough time, I'm afraid of accidents, and I don't want to regret it tomorrow. I don't want to die suddenly, while you don't even know that I like you very much, while I didn't confess my feelings to you yet. I like you, I want to protect you, of course, maybe you don't need my protection, but I want to protect you, no matter how strong you are, I want to protect you. With me, you can rest and no longer need to be always powerful. T/N: Awwwww my hearttttAs Jiang Nian remained silent, Qin Yue's heart became more nervous by the second, and he hurriedly said: Niannian, I know that what I'm saying may be too sudden. Don't rush to reject me, you can think about itI won't think about it.Huh?Can I take all of these?Qin Yue lowered his eyes and saw Jiang Nian's eyes shining, looking at him expectantly. He nodded and his heart beat faster: Well, these are all for you, do you like it?Jiang Nian smiled: Thank you, I like it, I like it very much!Qin Yue was relieved.He saw that Jiang Nian didn't seem to be repulsive nor shun him, so he was very happy. Niannian, do you accept? T/N: he's asking her if she's accepting his confession/ agreeing on being his gfJiang Nian thought for a while and then said seriously: It's really hard to find someone who can understand me. You know me very well, so I think we can give it a try.Try it?It's a yes???Qin Yue couldn't react for a moment, and then he was pleasantly surprised. He held Jiang Nian's hand and raised his sharp eyebrows, and a smile dancing in his dark eyes: Niannian, I will not make you regret choosing me. I will love you and protect you all my life.Jiang Nian nodded and added: I also want you to give me shiny gifts. I like shiny things.Qin Yue laughed and pulled Jiang Nian, hugging her, Okay.He felt that even if Jiang Nian wanted the moon in the sky, he could always find a way to pick it up and send it to her.Jiang Nian patted Qin Yue, thinking that he was a good boyfriend material.Li Ming and Captain Li were not very surprised when they learned that Jian Nan was finally with Qin Yue. After all, Qin Yue was way too obvious. The man was cold, but melted like snow whenever he was facing Jian Nan, not to mention that he liked to follow Jiang Nian whenever he had free time.Jiang Nian was concerned about the future of mankind. She didn't care about anything except the tasks, and she never took the matter of dating seriously. It inevitably made people anxious. They originally thought that Qin Yue had a long way to chase his wife, but didn't expect it to be done this quickly!In fact, the most surprised ones were the Jian family. After all, Jiang Nian's previous performance could be described as a heart like water, and she had no intention of wanting to fall in love. Then she suddenly changed her mind and became a couple with QinYue What great changes could have happened in the meantime?Jiang Nian thought about it, wasn't it indeed a big change? She originally thought that no one in this world really knew her, no one could understand her heart, when in fact Qin Yue did!Such a smart boyfriend was hard to find, and she was not stupid, so she naturally had to hold him in the palm of her hand.Mother Jiang was puzzled: Does Xiao Qin know you well? Why don't I know?Thinking of her large gold space, she nodded solemnly, Of course, I think he knows me best in the whole world!Mother Jiang still didn't understand, but she was still very happy. Their two families had been together for so long. Qin Yue's parents were honest, honest, pure and down-to-earth. Qin Yue was also a reliable man and had the strength to protect people. She was relieved to give her daughter to Qin Yue, so she he simply didn't bother to manage or niptick.Shen Ran was very unhappy, but he had a task in hand and couldn't interfere. How could his sister Jiang be fooled by a smelly man?Jiang Yuan was not happy either. He was about to have a particularly powerful brother-in-law, and he was not his brother-in-law's opponent at all. How could he protect his sisiter if she was bullied in the future?Just thinking about it, Jiang Yuan had a special sense of urgency. He couldn't wait to crush his time in one day and use every minute and every second to make himself stronger!Although his elder sister was very powerful herself, who knows Of course, the happiest ones, apart from Qin Yue, were the Qin parents. After all, where else could they find such a good daughter-in-law?Even their son became pleasing to the eyes. They thought he was an elm bump* and would be an old bachelor for a lifetime, but they didn't expect themselves to see badly. Their son did such a big feat without even speaking, its's a thing!The Qin Jiang family also had a reunion dinner to talk about it. At the dinner table, Qin's mother especially instructed Qin Yue to treat Jiang Nian well and not to bully Jiang Nian Yunyun. How could Qin Yue bully Jiang Nian?He answered honestly, while Jiang Nian nodded and promised: Uncles and aunts, don't worry, I will treat Qin Yue well, and I will be responsible for him.She was very greedy, and since she was greedy for money and he promised to give her money, they naturally have to love each other and stay together.Cough!Jiang father sighed, saying that this silly girl was not reserved at all; of course Qin's father and Qin's mother replied that it was good. Shen Ran's mouth was flat and he was a bit sad, why must his sister Jiang be seduced and stolen by the pig? Jiang Yuan desperately chopped rice, with the mindset You must eat hard to be strong, and be ready to beat up your brother-in-law at any time. Qin Yue's ears moved, feeling itchy in his heart and a little restless.After dinner was over, Qin Yue and Jiang Nian walked downstairs, holding hands. Qin Yue touched the calluses on Jiang Nian's palm. It was a bit rough. It was caused by holding a weapon for a long time, but her hands were very small. His hand could circle around hers easily.He suddenly asked: You are responsible to me?Yeah. Wasn't this a matter of course?What's the matter?Qin Yue raised his eyebrows and chuckled: Niannian, how are you responsible to me?This was indeed a problem. Jiang Nian thought about it seriously and took a diamond ring out of her storage space, then put it on Qin Yue: Don't worry, although I lose my senses when I see the money, I will not break up because of gold. Since I promised you, then you are my person!T/N: overbearing CEO-like FL x damsel-in-distress ML???Qin Yue looked at the ring in his hand, a little silly for a while, why did she put the ring on himself?In fact, he just wanted to tease her with bad intentionsJiang Nian was quick with her hands and had already brought out another ring in the meantime. At first glance, the two rings were of the same style. They were prepared long ago. The diamonds on the ring were very big, she put it on, a crooked smile on her face.The corners of Qin Yue's mouth couldn't stop turning upwards, and pressed again: Niannian, are you proposing to me?Jiang Nian glanced at him: What are you thinking about, this is our couple ring.oh.I will prepare the wedding ring later.Qin Yue didn't know whether to cry or to laugh for a while, But he was so happy that he rubbed Jiang Nian's head, her behavior was really straightforward and so lovely.Jiang Nian still had some regrets. Originally, she wanted the pair of rings to be made of gold, but big gold was too fragile, and was easy to break. After thinking about it, the diamonds were harder and more resistant to beating hh.Jiang Nian and Qin Yue's affairs were very lively in Xingfu Community for a while. At that time, even watching Jiang Nian and Qin Yue walking hand in hand on the street could become a whimsical talk!Not only the happy community, but outside as well gossiped about their relationship.Mom, I heard that District Chief Jiang and Captain Qin came out for a walk!Oh, I heard that District Chief Jiang and Captain Qin were holding hands!I heard that the female pig of Chief Jiang's house had thirteen piglets. Half of them were given to Captain Li and brought back to the team. I saw it with my own eyes. The piglets looked so beautiful!District Chief Jiang and Captain Qineh? Thirteen were born! Then we next year willwe beable to eat pork?When District Chief Jiang and Captain Qin get married, maybe we can get a dip and have a bite of pork! Gulp The attention shifted. The people who originally were watching the lively scene of the District Chief Jiang and Captain Qin spreading dog food, at this time, were hoping that they will get married soon. No, let the pigs grow up and fatten before they get married. Just thinking about it, everyone's saliva was dripping downSince having a boyfriend, Jiang Nian had a very happy time every day. Even sitting at home without doing anything could also enrich her large treasury, as the gains doubled with two people working together. It's true fully understanding one another was really the best thing in the world.Jiang Nian liked Qin Yue more and more. Before, she was blinded by gold and never saw Qin Yue's goodness. Fortunately, she regained her senses before it was too late.T/N: Idk why but I think Jian Nan is comparing gold with a gold mine Qin Yue hhhSince having a girlfriend, Qin Yue was also very happy, and he found that Jiang Nian's mind was very simple and she was easy to please, just give her some beautiful little gifts and she could fly with joy, really silly. If he knew it would be so easy to make her happy, he shouldn't have been timid and should have showered her with all the beautiful things in the world. How much time he had wasted beforeThetwo dated publicly for a year. The piglets had grown into big fat pigs under the expectation of everyone, and they had also been favored by everyone in the happy community. Which one goes out to complete a task and doesn't bring back grass to feed them?And watches them while drooling?Fortunately, there were three little sows in the litter. Two of them were taken away by Captain Li. Jiang Nian still had one left. There are piglets in her belly again, and if this continued on, Jian Nan might as well transform into a pig breeder.In the second year in the safe zone, the happiness community was particularly lively, because the Jiang family began to slaughter pigs and make bacon and sausages. Many people in the community came to help. Don't mention bones, those who helped could even bring back a kilo or two of meat. Jiang Nian was still the master, and she decided that everyone could get together to have a reunion dinner. After all, it was not easy to live to this day, so they were all happy.This is great, the silly girl is giving benefits again!The neighbors shook their heads twice, then immediately went home to see if there was anything to eat, to add a dish to the table if they could, if not, they could always contribute by bringing water and lighting fire; the atmosphere was harmonious and lively.Qin Yue naturally came to join in the excitement and took a nylon bag containing half-fried peanuts from his space. Depending on the situation, he took out a few cans of beer.Even if he joined the fun, he mustn't be any less vigilant and alert.When Captain Li learned about it, he personally sent some cabbage and carrots, saying it was to contribute to the joy.Stir-fried pork with cabbage, stewed pork ribs with radish, make do, these dishes were considered a delicacy in the apocalypse.Today, Wangcai had plenty of meat, so he didn't need to run outside to catch small fish and eat secretly in the kitchen.Jiang Nian felt it was a pity. After all, there were still a lot of fruits and vegetables in her space, all of which were grown by her during the past year, and eaten by her and her family. Everyone was enjoying the food After all, she had a lot of money and had to be always on guard, so she could only eat alone.Jiang Nian leaned on the fence of the balcony and looked at the noisy neighbors downstairs with interest.Why are you here alone? Qin Yue suddenly appeared out of nowhere. He stood behind her and gently held her hand. Jiang Nian turned her head, leaned on the balcony rail, looked at him and shook her head with a smile.Qin Yue rubbed the calluses on the girl's palm and then smiled.As long as he was by Jiang Nian's side, no matter if it's the apocalypse, he was at peace and warm.No matter where he was, whether it was safe or dangerous, as long as he thought of Jiang Nian, his heart was always warm and soft.He thought over and over again, hesitated for a while, then asked carefully, with a hint of probing: Niannian, shall we get married?Jiang Nian simply answered: Okay.Qin Yue felt that at this moment, he was a hundred times more delighted than his escape from the zombies.Wu Jiang was also married a long time ago.
