Reborn amidst natural disaster, my childhood sweetheart and dad help me stock up and win effortlessl

In the morning, Jiang Li slowly got up. She sat on the bed, her face sometimes showing a silly smile and sometimes a conflicted expression.

When Ye Jingmo came out of the kitchen, he saw Jiang Li's complicated expression.

He placed breakfast on the table, walked to Jiang Li's bedside, and asked, "Aren't you getting up yet?"

Jiang Li looked at Ye Jingmo standing by the bed. His casual clothes concealed some of his muscular physique, and the backlighting made his face blurry, making him look much younger.

"Get up, get up."

Jiang Li chuckled twice, then got up and went to the bathroom.

As she brushed her teeth, she looked up at herself in the mirror. Her hair was messy, her cheeks were flushed, and her skin felt burning hot to the touch.

She turned on the tap and sprayed cold water on her face to cool herself down.

Only one thought echoed in her mind.

Ye Jingmo really confessed to her yesterday! Are they officially together now?!

Is she dreaming?

Everything felt somewhat unreal.

Jiang Li and Ye Jingmo grew up together and relied on each other; their tacit understanding was ingrained in their very bones.

Jiang Li does not reject being with Ye Jingmo.

She had even considered taking that step before.

However, when things actually progressed, she was still somewhat at a loss.

This is her first relationship, and perhaps her last.

She still lacks experience in this area.

In the novel, after the male and female protagonists confirmed their relationship, they quickly entered their honeymoon period and couldn't wait to be together all the time.

But Jiang Li thought that she and Ye Jingmo had been together all the time before they confirmed their relationship, and she didn't know how to take their relationship further.

Jiang Li rubbed her disheveled hair and let out a mournful cry.

Oh well, what's the point of thinking about it so much? Let's just act like usual.

Jiang Li wiped the water droplets off her face with a towel and stepped out of the bathroom.

Ye Jingmo sat in the chair waiting for her.

The jelly and pudding on the table have already started eating their breakfast.

Ye Jingmo ladled a bowl of vegetable and chicken porridge for Jiang Li and placed it in front of her.

He casually asked, "What are your plans for today?"

Jiang Li subconsciously stirred the porridge in the bowl with a spoon, thought for a moment, and realized that it had been a long time since they had been up the mountain, so they could go up the mountain for a trip.

The bicycle we brought back needs a back seat installed, and we also need to stock up on some wood fuel for winter.

This way, they'll have something to do, instead of just sitting at home staring at each other, which would feel a bit strange.

Jiang Li felt that couples should find something to do when they first start dating.

Before the apocalypse, couples would go on dates to places like movie theaters and parks. Now that those options are no longer available, going to the mountains counts as a date.

However, the two encountered some obstacles when they went out.

Pudding looked pitifully at Jiang Li and Ye Jingmo, making pitiful whimpering sounds.

It blocked the doorway with its body, preventing them from going out; it wanted to go out with them.

Looking at the sun in the sky and the thermometer outside the door, it was obvious that this was not a suitable place for Pudding, who was covered in fur, to go out.

Jiang Li lowered her head and stroked Pudding's head.

"Pudding, be a good girl and stay home. This temperature isn't suitable for you to go out. We'll take you out when it gets colder, okay?"

"What are we supposed to do if we get heatstroke and can't find a doctor?"

After Jiang Li's gentle persuasion, Pudding stepped back and obediently stood at the door.

Noticing Ye Jingmo's gaze, Jiang Li looked up at him, a smile playing on his lips.

"Brother Mo, why don't you help me persuade Pudding?"

What are you thinking about while standing there?

"Lili, you will definitely be a gentle mother in the future."

Ye Jingmo's words left Jiang Li speechless.

Jiang Li thought to herself, "Ye Jingmo would be better off being as taciturn as before."

How was she supposed to respond?!

Finally, Jiang Li pretended not to hear and turned to leave, with Ye Jingmo following behind her.

Pudding watched them leave the house.

Ye Jingmo and Jiang Li walked along the mountain path with practiced ease, heading up the mountain.

After the weather gets hot, the number of people going into the mountains becomes very small.

The entire mountain was so quiet, it seemed to have been taken over by Jiang Li and Ye Jingmo.

Due to the prolonged drought, most of the trees seen along the way had withered and died, with only some tenacious wild grasses surviving.

Their leaves are turning yellow, and their stems are drooping, like an old man whose life is nearing its end, looking like he won't live much longer.

Besides their main purpose for going into the mountains, Jiang Li and Ye Jingmo also wanted to take the opportunity to check out the environment and see if there were any plants or fruits they could pick.

Jiang Li was disappointed by what she saw on the way, so she decided to go to the bamboo forest to see if she could make any new discoveries.

If she still couldn't find any, she would cut down some wood and bamboo nearby and then go back down the mountain.

The bamboo in the bamboo forest was all bare.

The sparse bamboo leaves have all fallen off, and the bamboo stalks have turned a deep yellow, almost completely dried out.

Jiang Li had anticipated this situation, but she was still somewhat disappointed when she saw the scene before her.

She sighed softly; it seemed she hadn't gained anything today except wood.

Jiang Li resignedly took out an axe and, together with Ye Jingmo, selected suitable trees to begin felling.

The two men staggered their axe swings, waiting until only a small section of the tree trunk remained attached.

At this moment, Ye Jingmo would kick the tree hard, breaking it in half.

While they were busy and stressed, they suddenly heard cries and howls coming from afar.

Ye Jingmo immediately looked up and around alertly, then pulled Jiang Li behind him to protect her.

Looking into the distant bushes, you can vaguely see a figure running out, waving its hands frantically as if trying to drive something away.

Jiang Li squinted, but still couldn't see the scene in the distance clearly. It was too far away, which wasn't ideal for someone like her who had slight nearsightedness.

However, regardless of the circumstances, even they are still some distance away.

The best thing they should do is to take cover.

Jiang Li tugged at Ye Jingmo's sleeve, wanting to run with him to the bushes on the side.

That way you won't bump into the person waving their arms around.

Does anyone know if that person has a mental illness?

Or will it attract some dangerous animal?

Ye Jingmo's eyes were like those of a hawk, able to see a dark shadow chasing after the running person.

It must have been bees or some other flying insect; they swarmed and stung the man.

"Brother Mo, let's hide to the side."

Seeing that Ye Jingmo hadn't moved, Jiang Li immediately urged him on.

Ye Jingmo felt that the person being chased and bitten by the bees looked familiar, as if he had seen him somewhere before.

"Wait a moment."

Ye Jingmo wanted to confirm his identity.

The man who was running saw Ye Jingmo and Jiang Li in the distance, waved frantically, urging them to run faster, and tried to change the direction he was running in.

It seems to be to avoid causing harm to Ye Jingmo and Jiang Li.
