Without those monsters coveting her space, Jiang Ning felt much more relaxed.
Life at sea was quite oppressive, so a hot spring bath helped her completely unwind.
In the evening, they celebrated with delicious food and drinks.
Salt and pepper shrimp, pig stomach chicken, toothpick beef, and baked lobster.
The three of them raised their glasses, and Jiang Ning smiled brightly, “Cheers! Here’s to a world without monsters!”
Coke can’t drink alcohol, so they poured some Fanta.
It took more than an hour to finish eating in the evening. Doudou cleaned the table, and Coke helped in the kitchen.
Jiang Ning picked the freshest sunflower seeds, washed them, and sat in the living room to watch a movie.
Huo Yishen peeled the seeds and stuffed it into her mouth.
Jiang Ning laughed while eating, “Thank you, Mr. Huo.”
Even after being married for so long, she still enjoyed these romantic gestures, and even Huo Yishen also appreciated it.
This was the most relaxed moment in their space; there was no need to hide anything from Doudou, and they could freely express themselves as a family while sitting on the couch.
There are many rooms in the villa, and Coke and Doudou live in a spacious room.
With the monster defeated, she felt at ease and decided to enjoy their time in the space.
That night, as Huo Yishen closed the doors and windows, he pulled out some contraceptives from the drawer…
Jiang Ning didn’t expect that such a thing could be celebrated.
But they feel extremely comfortable after doing it.
Exhausted, they tightly embraced and found solace in each other.
It was this cruel apocalypse that allowed Jiang Ning and Huo Yishen to meet and know each other, and their bodies and minds were extremely compatible.
Sometimes she can’t help but wonder if there were no natural disasters and apocalypse, would they have a chance to meet each other?
Just thinking about it makes her feel extremely regretful.
Jiang Ning reflected that Huo Yishen was the man who unconditionally accepted her in this world.
She couldn’t help but asked, “If you hadn’t met me, what kind of woman would you fall in love with?”
Huo Yishen was unwilling to talk, “What ifs are meaningless.”
Jiang Ning teased him until he spoke.
Huo Yishen couldn’t explain it clearly. Fate is a very strange thing.
If there was no feeling, no matter how beautiful someone was, it wouldn’t matter.
But when feelings did come, they could appear in an instant.
“Have you been interested in me from the beginning?”
“No, I just thought you were quite strange.”
Living next door meant they needed to understand each other, but the more he understood, the more he wanted to know.
At some point, she had settled into his heart.
Huo Yishen is not a person who knows how to deal with things. He is worried that his dull temper will make Jiang Ning feel bored, but fortunately, she was quite lively.
It just felt very good, a natural complement to one another.
Jiang Ning kissed him. “Huo Yishen, you are really good too.”
It was a dreamless night, and it was already late when they woke up.
After a luxurious day yesterday, they couldn’t be reckless today; no one knew what would happen in the future, so they had to save their time.
Jiang Ning calculated that the King Squid should left already.
But for safety reasons, Jiang Ning did not use a submarine or a yacht but chose an escape pod.
The three of them and the dog entered the escape pod and soon exited the space.
The escape pod surfaced in the ocean, and just as Jiang Ning was about to assess the situation outside, several forces suddenly attacked, dragging the escape pod down toward the seabed.
They were shocked and turned to look at the glass door of the pod, where giant red tentacles appeared.
Oh, after the King Squid destroyed the nest of those monsters, it didn’t leave but instead made this its nest.
Sure enough, the escape pod was targeted by them as soon as it came out.
The squid has ten legs, each leg was more than one meter thick, and only three or five legs are needed to easily entangle the escape pod.
The huge tentacles dragged the escape pod, and it kept sinking and strangling them as it sank…
But Jiang Ning was not in a hurry to escape after being caught.
The more you resist and try to escape from these hot-tempered monsters, the more violent and murderous they will become.
The escape pod is not like other non-escaping tools. It is a solid fortress made of aerospace materials. It is not easy to damage it. The body of the giant squid is also quite unique. It is like a good ping-pong ball or egg held in the palm of your hand, which makes it even more difficult for them destroy the escape pod.
As Jiang Ning expected, the giant squids tightened its tentacles but couldn’t crush the escape pod.
As long as the tentacles loosened, the escape pod will float to the surface.
Loosen, grab, strangle, loosen…
The giant squids were getting irritable and playful, they released one tentacle while wrapping another, continuing to squeeze but unable to manage it…
It went berserk again, countless tentacles reaching out to seize the escape pod.
Unfortunately, compared to their massive bodies, the escape pod was far too small, and its round shape made it difficult to find leverage in the water. With dozens of tentacles vying for control, it felt like the tentacles were about to fight among themselves.
After making sure that the escape pod was extremely safe, Jiang Ning started to play around.
The escape pod went hiding in the space.
Then the escape pod appeared again.
The giant squids almost popped their eyes out when the escape pod was entangled in the tentacles.
The giant squids instantly became interested and wanted to play with the ball as well.
So, they all came.
No matter which group, as long as there are enough of them, they will be divided into different levels.
Over time, conflicts and disputes can easily arise, and when interests clash, it’s easy for fights to break out.
And here they were, fighting over a toy.
In no time, the calm sea was once again in chaos.
The escape pod was tossed back and forth, briefly surfacing as if being played with like a volleyball, then dragged down to the seabed, and sometimes disappearing into thin air, much like a mischievous little sprite, tempting the giant squids.
They fought, they grabbed, like a bustling market.
This area of the sea wasn’t very deep, and among the rising and falling waves, many wrecked ships could be seen on the seabed.
From the looks of it, they seemed to be remnants of the monster’s nest.
The giant squids were in chaos, which attracted the attention of the king of squids. Seeing these useless group fighting for a ball, it was furious and stretched out its huge tentacles, slapping the escape pod away with one slap.
It was very strong and slapped the escape pod dozens of meters away.
The escape pod flew up, spinning in the air, and then fell into the sea with a bang, drifting with the waves.
The King Squid slapped it away, and the others didn’t dare to chase it.
The three of them and the dog were dizzy from the escape pod’s spinning, but at least they had finally escaped the giant squid’s nest.
They drifted farther and farther until they disappeared.
After drifting for more than three hours, it was confirmed that there was no problem in the surrounding sea area. Jiang Ning flashed into the space with the escape pod, changed to the submarine, and came out again.
The submarine entered the sea and slowly sank to a suitable height.
After escaping from the squid nest, the three people and the dog sat in front of the observation window to drink morning tea.
Jiang Ning was drinking soy milk and eating steamed dumplings, but when she looked up, a huge thing rushed over.
Uh, it was Lan Lan.
Today, Lan Lan was very lively, and its impact against the submarine was much gentler, probably because it had avenged its child.
It circled around the submarine, left, and came back…
Doudou tilted her head and thought, “Is Lan Lan saying goodbye to us?”
Jiang Ning thought about it. “It should be.”
The ocean currents in this sea area are complicated, and it is actually not suitable for large whales to survive. The reason why Lan Lan lingered and did not leave is to find an opportunity to avenge its child.
Now that revenge has been taken, it is time for Lan Lan to return to the deep sea where it is suitable for survival.
2688 surfaced, and the three people and the dog walked out of the submarine and said goodbye.

Please bear with me if I didn’t update right away 😅. I was either buried in work 💼… or buried in rereading the book 📖. (P.S. Most of the time I’m rereading it 🤭—so you know just how good the story is! 🌟)
