I'm Hoarding for the Apocalypse Chapter 140 Watching a TV Show With Her Boyfriend

140 Watching a TV Show With Her Boyfriend

Du Yue took out all of He Xing’s things and placed them back in their original positions. Previously, they had used a small wooden table for their meals and sat on two square solid wood stools. The stools were very simple and did not even have a backrest. When Du Yue could not take things out of the inters.p.a.ce in a proper manner, she could, of course, bear with it. However, now that she could use her s.p.a.ce without any restraint, Du Yue would naturally want to change the furniture to more comfortable ones.

After all, the two of them would be eating together for many days to come. It was important to sit comfortably. When Du Yue asked for He Xing’s opinion, He Xing, just like before, said that he would follow her arrangements. Du Yue tilted her head and asked him, “What if you don’t like the things I choose?”

He Xing shook his head with a straight face. “No, you have good taste. You’ll never make a mistake in the things you choose. Besides, it’s the happiest thing for me to be able to eat with you every day, so I’ll like them no matter what kind of table and chairs you choose.”

This was the first time Du Yue had heard He Xing say something like that. She did not feel embarra.s.sed, nor did she blush. Instead, she stared into He Xing’s eyes with interest. For some reason, Du Yue suddenly remembered a line she had read in a novel—”How many more surprises do you have that I don’t know about?” She blurted out the words as she thought about it. Before He Xing could react, Du Yue laughed.

Seeing that Du Yue was laughing so hard that she was almost in tears, He Xing was puzzled. He had no idea why she was laughing. Du Yue laughed for a long time before she finally managed to stop herself. “Are you wondering what I’m laughing about?”

He Xing met Du Yue’s clear eyes and nodded. “Yes.”

“Later, when we eat, I’ll show you a very, very popular TV show on Earth. Then you’ll know what I was laughing about!”

Ever since that night, Du Yue would watch the show with He Xing at dinner time. She still remembered that when the show was first aired, many netizens who had read the original novel online felt that the actors chosen for the male and female leads were too old and did not fit the original novel at all. As a result, there were a lot of complaints online. However, when everyone finished watching the TV show from the beginning to the end, almost no one left a bad review. Public opinion on the internet had also changed greatly. Everyone said that veteran actors were indeed veterans and that the male lead looked like a living and mighty emperor when he sat there.

This TV show had been popular for so many years, and its popularity had not diminished even before the apocalypse. No matter how many times she watched it, she would not get tired of it at all. In the past, Du Yue had always watched it alone. She would always read the comments from the netizens. Almost every one of them was very interesting.

Even though there was no internet and she could no longer read the live comments, she had He Xing by her side who was watching TV with her. When she saw the cla.s.sic line appear, Du Yue tilted her head at He Xing. “Now you know why I was laughing earlier, right?”

He Xing nodded seriously. “I understand.” He Xing rubbed his chin with his fingers as he spoke. His brows were slightly furrowed as if he was deep in thought.

She was about to ask him what was wrong when He Xing spoke first, “I’ve given it some serious thought just now. I do have a lot of surprises that you don’t know about, but it’s okay. We still have a long way to go, and we can slowly get to know each other.”

Du Yue was just joking with He Xing, but when she saw how serious He Xing was in confessing to her, she put away her smile.

“Alright then. I’ll be waiting to see the surprises you’ll bring me.” The two of them did not plan to stay at home all day. After watching the show, they decided to go out again.

This time, the two of them each carried a mountaineering bag and nothing else. The backpacks looked to be bulging on the surface, but there were not many things inside, so they were not heavy to carry. It felt so easy to go out without having to pack a lot, but Du Yue was still not used to it. She took out the Tang sword and hung it on her backpack. It felt a little heavier on her back now, and she was relieved. “This weight is just right.”

He Xing’s lips curved into a smile as he looked at her.

When Du Yue said that she was ready, the two of them went downstairs. As soon as they reached the first floor, they saw the door on the left suddenly open. Wu Di walked out of the house. The smile on Du Yue’s face disappeared instantly when she saw him. It was replaced by vigilance and impatience. She had not left the house for a long time, so she did not bother with Wu Di. She did not expect that Wu Di was still secretly watching her every move!

She had just reached the first floor. How could it be such a coincidence that he pushed the door open and came out at this time?
