dear zombie king

【Three years later】

"Shen! Get up! Get up!"

The sky was still yellow, and at dawn, it was slightly cold, and the leaves of the sycamore tree outside the window rustled.

Shen Liang turned over and continued to sleep.

He returned to his original city, which is his hometown. He grew up here, but in his past and present lives, he has not been back here for 12 years.

After several years of natural disasters, Yuncheng, once bustling and bustling, was reduced to a capital of death, and was gradually rebuilt after the advent of the universal serum.

The green grassy park is back, the swans fluttering in the wetland are back, the noisy and crowded streets are back, the devastated land and the crowd have been healed for three years, and everything seems to be no different from before the end of the world.

Shen Liang resigned from the research institute and bought a detached villa in the outskirts of Yuncheng with the reward money from the base, near the river, near the bus station, and near the place where he used to live.

When spring comes, the meadows are covered with tiny and bright yellow flowers, and the road stretches far, far away. The sound of rushing water is accompanied by the occasional car horn or two. teardrops.

Shen Liang opened his eyes and looked at the traces of the breeze on the plain through the floor-to-ceiling windows.He thought of Puff whimpering and coquettishly saying that he wanted to go out to play last night, and he couldn't help but feel a little embarrassed.

I took Puff out for boating before, but Puff was afraid of the water, so he hugged him the whole time and did not let go, causing him to paddle the entire distance alone. Puff trembled and whimpered twice in his arms from time to time, without opening his eyes , not to mention any emotional appeal at all.

He thought that since Puff was afraid of water, he would not be afraid to go to the amusement park. He was so lively and active, and it would be good to play around in the amusement park. However, the weather was too hot that day, and Puff acted like a baby and asked him to hug him as soon as he entered the playground. Saying that he didn't want to move, Shen Liang had no choice but to carry him all the way, and also aroused strange eyes all the way.

Since then, Shen Liang no longer took the initiative to bring him to play, not because he thought it was troublesome, but because he felt that he might not have any romantic cells, and taking Puff out was also torturing Puff, which made him uncomfortable twice, and even more so. Don't talk about making him happy.

But last night Puff suddenly said that he wanted to go to the movies, which surprised him.Entertainment facilities such as movie theaters are well rebuilt, and they were restored at random in the first year after the end of the apocalypse. Because of the great demand, they have been restored smoothly.He also thought about taking Puff to see it before, but there were too many people in the closed theater, Puff's sense of smell was too keen, and his nasal cavity felt uncomfortable, so he came out after watching halfway.

Puff has always been resistant to crowded places. I don’t know why this time I took the initiative to say that I want to go. I got up very early today. If I don’t know how long I would stay in bed. @无限好文, all in Jinjiang Literature City

"Brother, you said you would take me there."

He likes to call him brother when he is acting like a baby, and it has been a habit for the past three years.At first, Shen Liang felt that calling Shen Ting all the time was a bit preposterous, and wanted him to call him something else, but he didn't know where he picked up the title of brother, and he continued to call him to this day.

Shen Liang was pushed under the quilt by him, and his hot body was pressed against his back, so he couldn't sleep no matter what.Puff has already changed his clothes. The hooded sweater Shen Liang bought for him a few days ago has a small wolf ear print on the chest, casual khaki overalls, and solid-color socks with wolf ear socks.

Shen Liang was not wearing a shirt, and he hugged him from behind. His warm palms directly touched the relaxed chest muscles.

Shen Liang: "..."

"If you still want to go out today, you'd better stop."

"Shen, are you finally willing to get up?" Puff wasn't afraid of him at all, she stood up and leaned over to kiss Shen Liang's stubbled chin.

"On the weekend, little ancestor, you can't live in peace."

Shen Liang resumed his old job and worked as his pediatrician in the Second City Hospital. However, in the last few years, the human birth rate and child survival rate were extremely low, which made his work far less busy than before the last days.

But weekends, especially weekend mornings, are precious to any commuter.

"Shen Mingming promised me..."

"What did you promise?" Shen Liang intentionally teased him.

"Promised to take me out to the movies!"

"But I'm very tired today, I don't want to go, what should I do?"

Puff was startled, rolled over from him, rolled into his arms, put his arms around his neck and said worriedly: "Really? Did you ask for too much puff last night?"

Shen Liang laughed: "You overestimate yourself."

He hugged the puff and sat up from the bed, put on the slippers, put the puff on the wooden chair next to the closet, and found himself a set of ordinary clothes, a shirt with a windbreaker, and black suit pants.

Puff watched him put on his clothes without blinking his eyes. When changing pajamas, Shen Liang couldn't help but turned his back to him to change, but Puff, who had no wink, even let out a wow and said with a smile Sentence "so healthy."

Shen Liang walked over and patted his eyebrows, then pinched his cheek: "Little pervert, right? I'll punish you to eat an extra bowl of porridge in the morning."

There are peeled corn kernels and cut pumpkin pieces in the refrigerator. Shen Liang scooped two cups of millet into the pot, added water to boil, put the pumpkin pieces and corn kernels, and after the water boiled, turn to low heat and cook for half an hour. When the porridge was ready, so were the potato cakes and sandwiches.

The kitchen here is much more spacious than the kitchen at the southern base, and the lighting is also good. Outside the bright glass windows, you can see the bus station in the distance, the benches on the meadow and the swings hanging from the branches of the big trees.

Puff turned around in the kitchen, eating a piece of ham from time to time, hugging Shen Liang from behind for a while, obviously sticking together all the time, but always showing a very nostalgic expression on his face.

After eating, Shen Liang drove to the city.There was a movie theater next to the People's Park. Shen Liang bought two tickets, and when he turned around, he saw Puff standing next to the popcorn machine.He wore a sun visor, revealing a section of his white chin and neck, and the collar of the sweater was exposed to the air like that, bruised and purple, and he didn't know what he thought he had done to him.

"Great popcorn, thanks."

Shen Liang took out a 20 yuan bill from his wallet and handed it to the salesperson. The salesperson took it with a smile, pulled out a large cylinder box from the cabinet, and handed it to the puffs who had been staring at the popcorn machine.

Puff immediately took it happily, and when he pressed the switch and waited for it to be full, Shen Liang put his hand on his shoulder, lowered his head and asked softly: "Someone handed something over, what should I say?"

Puff was kind and kind, and smiled sweetly at the salesperson: "Thank you."

"Hey...no need."

After Puff smiled at him, she turned around and stood on tiptoe and kissed Shen Liang firmly on the face. Shen Liang was used to sneak attacks by him, and he didn't have any temper. Ask people to sit in the waiting area.

Puff wanted to watch this movie by name. It was a very small literary film. No posters were even posted in the cinema, and the movie actors were also unknown.Shen Liang seldom watched this kind of movies before, and only after entering the theater did he understand Puff's intentions, because there were only the two of them in the theater.

"If there is anything else you want to see, next time we can book the show, just tell me."

Puff held his hand and followed obediently: "I just want to see this."

Shen Liang looked down at him: "Yes."

They chose a middle position with a good view.The popcorn was placed between the two of them, Shen Liang didn't eat much, and Puff ate most of the bucket by himself. It wasn't until the second half of the movie that some unsuitable scenes began to appear that Shen Liang started to take the popcorn from the bucket.

The hands of the two sometimes touch each other. Puff always likes to hook Shen Liang with his little finger. When Shen Liang looks over, he pretends nothing happened. Ticking his palms while he was at it.

But when the movie was coming to an end, Puff suddenly put his head on Shen Liang's shoulder. The popcorn bucket had already bottomed out, but Puff was still reaching for it.Shen Liang also went to take it, but he hooked his finger again. Shen Liang thought it was funny, and stretched out his hand to scratch his soft and warm palm, but his fingertip touched a hard object.

Shen Liang was startled, and immediately lowered his head to look at Puff, but Puff lowered his eyes and his long eyelashes were slightly drawn. Even in the dim theater, Shen Liang could find that his cheeks were unreasonably red.

"What is it?"

In fact, he probably guessed it.

But he didn't expect Puff to understand this.

"Didn't Shen say...to get married after the end of the world?" Puff whispered, "But it's been three years, and you haven't proposed to me, so I have no choice but to..."

Shen Liang first pulled out a tissue and wiped his hands slowly. His expression was very calm, and he couldn't see any emotion, but it was usually at this time that his mood fluctuated the most.

Puff was in a state of agitation. He didn't think he would be rejected. He was [-]% sure that he would be accepted, but the air of silence still weighed him down a bit. The cool big palm, the next moment his back neck was gently pinched and lifted, he was forced to raise his head, and a gentle and delicate kiss came to his face, slow, restrained, cherished, but full of love and desire. Unrestrained agitation.

"sorry."

Puff was kissing with his face flushed, his heart was pounding like it was about to jump out, his face turned pale when he heard this, he was startled, his throat was sore and bitter.He opened his eyes in disbelief, but saw his own reflection in Shen Liang's dark eyes.

"This kind of thing...you are asked to take the initiative again and again." Shen Liang approached him and rubbed the space between his brows, "I'm sorry, baby, I thought we were already married."

He always thought that Puff didn't pay much attention to this kind of formality. After all, the marriage proposal was just a one-sentence matter before. In addition, the same-sex marriage law has not yet been passed in this land, and the jewelry industry three years ago has not yet recovered. I just cooked a big table of his favorite dishes for Puff, knelt down in front of him, and told him to support each other in the future.That night, he also adopted a very traditional term called a bridal chamber. He was afraid that Puff would not understand, so he explained it to him. He probably drank too much wine and forgot all about it the next morning.

No wonder he asked Puff to change his words, but Puff only called him brother, not what he wanted to hear.

So did he, he didn't even make up a ring, and it's no wonder that Puff didn't buy it.

"Why are you crying? Did I bully you again?"

Puff red-eyed and lost her temper, she punched him on the shoulder with a muffled sound, but it didn't hurt at all.

If the students in his boxing class saw this, they would definitely drop their eyes.The devil coach who usually has a bad temper and punches to the flesh, can actually hit such a soft punch.

"Honey, can you put it on for me?"

Puff muffled: "Aren't we married?"

"I was wrong. I forgot to put on the ring for my baby Puff. Put it on for me first. It will be our engagement ring. After watching the movie, I will buy you a bigger and more beautiful one. Next time I will wear it for you at the wedding ceremony."

Puff couldn't stand his gentle bass, she blushed every time she was coaxed by him, and hearing that there was going to be a wedding, even her earlobes were completely red.

"Humph."

He wanted to talk back, but he couldn't bear to reject the plan, so he looked awkward.Before Shen Liang could say anything, he couldn't bear his own awkwardness, put his hands on Shen Liang's neck and moved up to bite him viciously, like biting prey, but he didn't show his fangs.

The ring fits very well. Puff secretly measured it while Shen Liang was asleep. He circled it with his fingers again and again, fearing that it would be inaccurate, so he pulled out a piece of hair and carefully wrapped it around it. He pinched it with his fingernails. Leaves marks on hair.

The ring is a plain ring with no decoration, but the shimmering dark pattern and the edge of the string of lettering close to the finger reveal the buyer's intentions.

The engraving will not look particularly neat, but it is unlikely that a novice engraving on metal for the first time will reach this level.Shen Liang thought that he would carve the names of two people and add a heart in the middle as before, that would actually be quite good, he likes anything engraved with puffs, but this time it was not as he thought.

Under his repeated coaxing, Puff finally helped him take off the ring. Shen Liang originally wanted to turn on the phone's light, but at this moment the melodious and melodious ending song sounded, the lights in the theater turned on, and Puff's pink finger The tip clamped the ring tightly, and the light fell on the silver-white metal, reflecting beautiful lines.

At the same moment, the green words on the inner side of the circle also surfaced——

"Winter of the Second Year of the End Times"

The other half is hidden in the pocket of Puff's sweater, where there is only candy and Shen Liang's ID photo on weekdays, there is an extra ring box at some point.

Puff smiled with crooked eyebrows, and the red mark at the end of the eyes made the smile more beautiful. He looked at Shen Liang, opened his lips slightly, and said the rest of the words for the ring in the box:

"Spring has come."
