Chen Wan and Jiang Yanxin decided to head over to the small restaurant with Qin Ke to cheer up Yang Yang.
Around six o’clock, Chen Wan started cooking porridge, adding a lot of oats to the eight-treasure porridge, and soon the aroma filled the air.
Yang Yang enjoyed the fragrant porridge while listening to stories, with her mom occasionally squeezing her little hand playfully, feeling utterly content.
Once the porridge was ready, Chen Wan served it to everyone at the table.
Yang Yang eagerly blew on her porridge and ate it in big, satisfying bites.
After dinner, Jiang Yanxin took Yang Yang for a walk around the RV, while Chen Wan changed Qin Ke’s wrist and ankle bandages and made sure she took her medicine on time.
Around eight o’clock, Chen Wan and Jiang Yanxin were playing with Yang Yang on the bed when a mechanical voice from the system suddenly sounded in Chen Wan’s mind: “Congratulations, host. The RV has successfully upgraded to level 2. The exterior, glass, and tires have entered level 2 mode. The fuel and water tank capacity has been upgraded to 2800L, and the trunk storage space has been upgraded to 20 cubic meters. Additionally, an independent room has been added to the RV (totaling 15 square meters). The installation of the mechanical arm and the enhancement of the host’s attributes require the host’s instructions. All other functions are available for normal use.”
As the system’s mechanical voice echoed, a door made of the same material as the RV’s body appeared silently on the wall in the two-meter gap between the upper and lower bunks and the bathroom, as if it had materialized out of thin air.
Jiang Yanxin, busy playing with Yang Yang, didn’t even notice it.
Chen Wan felt a surge of excitement and quickly said, “Yanxin, the RV has been upgraded. Qin Ke, our RV upgrade is successful.”
Qin Ke, who was flipping through an ABO novel in the dining area, hurried over when she heard Chen Wan.
A door had appeared on the wall between the large bed and the bathroom, and even someone as experienced as Qin Ke was stunned by the sight.
These occurrences defied logic, but given the existence of zombies, other things seemed easier to explain.
The shock was only momentary.
Chen Wan turned the doorknob, revealing a room about 15 square meters in size, complete with a bathroom.
In the center of the room was a large bed, and against the wall was a wardrobe reaching the ceiling, making it no different from a bedroom at home.
The only difference was that the room had no windows, but it did have a ventilation fan.
Chen Wan was very pleased with the room and smiled at Jiang Yanxin and Yang Yang, saying, “Yanxin, now you can stay in this room with the baby.”
Jiang Yanxin glanced at Chen Wan and asked, “What? Are you planning to live separately from me?”
Chen Wan glanced at Qin Ke, feeling a bit embarrassed, “I didn’t say I wanted to live separately. I just thought you and the baby would be more comfortable with more space. If I join, it might be a bit cramped.”
Jiang Yanxin looked at Chen Wan, unconvinced, “How much space do the baby and I take up? Are you just trying to avoid us?”
She gave Chen Wan a look as if she were a scoundrel abandoning her family, and Yang Yang mimicked her mom, staring at Chen Wan with big eyes as if she were a heartless person.
Qin Ke, watching the scene unfold, couldn’t help but laugh.
After spending a few days with them, Qin Ke felt that Chen Wan and Jiang Yanxin’s relationship was more like a couple in the early stages of romance rather than a married couple of several years.
Chen Wan, in particular, was completely under Jiang Yanxin and Yang Yang’s control, a stark contrast to her zombie-slaying persona.
Qin Ke envied their family’s warmth, a rare glimpse of humanity in the apocalypse.
She smiled and tried to mediate, “Exactly, you should stay with Yanxin and the baby. That way, I can have the whole outside area to myself and lie wherever I want.”
Seeing the three of them united, Chen Wan had no choice but to nod, “Alright, I’ll sleep inside too.”
“Okay, let’s pack up a bit. Yang Yang, why don’t you play with Auntie for a while?”
Jiang Yanxin coaxed Yang Yang in her arms.
Yang Yang nodded her little head, “Okay, Auntie hug.”
With that, Yang Yang stretched out her little arms, waiting for Qin Ke to hold her.
Qin Ke quickly took Yang Yang from Jiang Yanxin’s arms and went to play on the small restaurant’s sofa.
In the apocalypse, with nothing much to do, Qin Ke found joy in playing with the little one.
Chen Wan and Jiang Yanxin entered the room, first laying out the sheets and small blankets from the big bed outside.
Bedding was a scarce resource for them, and Chen Wan thought they should find a place to get off the highway in the morning to stock up on these items and look for food.
Chen Wan also piled all the clothes they had scavenged from the clothing store onto the bed and began organizing them into the wardrobe with Jiang Yanxin.
Although the trunk’s compressed space was large, Chen Wan planned to store as much as possible in the RV to free up space for more supplies.
The two spent nearly half an hour organizing all the clothes into the wardrobe.
Seeing that everything was almost done, Chen Wan stood up, ready to go out and bring Yang Yang back, but she was stopped by Jiang Yanxin.
“Wait.”
Chen Wan turned to look at Jiang Yanxin, “What’s wrong? Is there more to organize?”
Jiang Yanxin got up and walked over to Chen Wan.
Chen Wan instinctively took a step back, which made Jiang Yanxin laugh.
Her eyes sparkled as she looked at Chen Wan, “Don’t dodge.”
Hearing Jiang Yanxin’s words, Chen Wan didn’t dare to move back any further and stood there looking at Jiang Yanxin.
Jiang Yanxin chuckled at Chen Wan’s flustered expression, took another step forward, and wrapped her arms around Chen Wan’s waist, burying herself in Chen Wan’s embrace.
Chen Wan’s ears turned slightly red as she tried to relax her somewhat stiff shoulders.
Her arms, hanging at her sides, hesitated for a moment before lifting to gently wrap around Jiang Yanxin’s waist and back.
Jiang Yanxin felt Chen Wan’s response, a slight smile tugging at her lips.
She knew that the training she had given Chen Wan over the past few days hadn’t been in vain.
Previously, Chen Wan would just stand there stiffly, but now she was actually hugging back.
After leaning against Chen Wan for a while, Jiang Yanxin lifted her face slightly and smiled at her.
“From now on, don’t dodge. You’re an alpha, it’s not right to always let the Omega take the initiative. Besides, I’m your wife. Isn’t it normal to hug your own wife?”
“I didn’t dodge. I’ll be more proactive next time,” Chen Wan mumbled softly in her own defense, silently cheering herself on to be more proactive next time.
Seeing Chen Wan’s good-natured willingness to correct her mistakes, Jiang Yanxin felt a tickle in her heart.
She playfully brushed the back of her fingers against Chen Wan’s cheek, teasing her.
“Alright, let’s see how you perform later.”
Jiang Yanxin’s fingertips mischievously moved from Chen Wan’s cheek to her ear, then back to her neck.
Jiang Yanxin had no intention of letting Chen Wan off easily, at least not allowing her to leave the room so easily.
Chen Wan held the soft and fragrant Jiang Yanxin in her arms.
Jiang Yanxin leaned against her shoulder, her warm breath tickling Chen Wan’s neck, making her feel itchy.
Jiang Yanxin’s fingertips occasionally brushed against her cheek and ear, causing sweat to form on her forehead.
Jiang Yanxin naturally noticed this and deliberately looked at Chen Wan with a smile in her eyes.
“Why are you sweating? It’s not hot in the room.”
Chen Wan’s eyes darkened slightly, clearly holding something back.
She pursed her lips and stared at Jiang Yanxin for a while before gritting her teeth and muttering softly, “The room isn’t hot, you are.”
Although Chen Wan spoke in a low voice, she and Jiang Yanxin were so close that Jiang Yanxin caught her words almost immediately.
There was a hint of grievance in her voice, not at all like an alpha.
Jiang Yanxin buried herself in Chen Wan’s arms, laughing for a while before slightly raising her head to look at Chen Wan.
Her eyes still held a blush from laughing so hard, like petals that made it hard to look away.
Chen Wan’s dark eyes seemed to be lost in thought, staring intently at the blush at the corner of Jiang Yanxin’s eyes.
Almost instinctively, she reached out to gently stroke that flush.
Jiang Yanxin was momentarily stunned.
She hadn’t expected Chen Wan to do that.
After all, despite her previous teasing, Chen Wan had always stood still, not daring to move.
She hadn’t expected her to finally make a move this time.
Jiang Yanxin didn’t stop Chen Wan.
She wanted to see how far Chen Wan intended to go, just watching her intently.
It was only after Chen Wan touched her that she realized what she was doing.
She quickly moved her fingers away from Jiang Yanxin’s eye corner, her ears turning red with guilt.
She didn’t dare to look at Jiang Yanxin’s face, only daring to stare at the ground beside her.
Jiang Yanxin found her reaction even more amusing.
Was she really that scary?
Scaring the usually decisive Chen Wan like this, as if she wasn’t allowed to touch her.
Seeing Jiang Yanxin laughing so happily in her arms, Chen Wan felt a bit aggrieved.
She looked at Jiang Yanxin with puppy eyes, tightening her arms around Jiang Yanxin’s waist, and asked, “Wife, are you laughing at me?”
Jiang Yanxin was so amused by Chen Wan that she could barely stand, leaning her full weight against Chen Wan.
After catching her breath, she finally spoke, “No, I just think you’re cute. It’s not like I won’t let you touch me, so why are you so scared?”
“Chen Wan,” Jiang Yanxin called out again after a moment’s thought.
Chen Wan lowered her eyes slightly to look at the person in her arms, obediently responding, “I’m here.”
Jiang Yanxin’s eyes held an emotion that Chen Wan couldn’t understand.
The next moment, Chen Wan felt Jiang Yanxin’s fingers pinching her ear again, playing with it.
Jiang Yanxin nestled in Chen Wan’s arms, playing with her ear, while looking at the alpha in front of her who let her do as she pleased.
She chuckled and said, “Do you think we should switch roles? You’re so obedient, you should be the Omega.”
As she spoke, Jiang Yanxin’s fingers released Chen Wan’s ear and instead used the back of her fingers to gently stroke the outline of Chen Wan’s ear, making it itch.
Chen Wan’s heart itched too, but she didn’t know what to do with Jiang Yanxin.
She could only grab Jiang Yanxin’s hand that was causing trouble by her ear and defend herself, “I’m very A, okay?”
