Apocalypse: My Sweetie Is Tough but Cute
Chapter 288 - Chapter 288 Chapter 287 Let Go of That Girl (14)

Chapter 288: Chapter 287: Let Go of That Girl (14) Chapter 288: Chapter 287: Let Go of That Girl (14) Tang Zelin had disappeared, and Su Shu, living halfway up the mountain in the First Safe Zone, had no idea why.

She only knew that Tang Zelin didn’t show up the next day, and he didn’t appear the day after that either. Only then did she begin to sense that something was amiss. While descending the mountain, she passed by the camp and inquired, learning that both the group captain and the Political Commissar had gone to the suburbs. She didn’t ask further.

Going to the suburbs must mean they had important matters to attend to. She thought about it and decided to wait until he was free to come back.

If a man’s word is remembered just like that, then it’s not surprising at all for a man to disappear the day after getting married, right?

Although she spoke in such a manner, Su Shu couldn’t help feeling a bit disappointed.

Fortunately, this slight disappointment was quickly overshadowed by the warmth of both the Luo Family and Ge Family.

Li Xiaoxia and Luo Gang were genuinely delighted after learning from the elderly of the Ge Family that Su Shu had married Captain Tang.

It was rare for everyone to encounter a celebration, and they should celebrate. But life nowadays, vastly different from before the Apocalypse, made it hard to celebrate with nothing much to celebrate with.

After discussing with his wife and asking Su Shu whether she would continue to live in the mountains or move down near the military camp, Luo Gang proposed to make a set of table and chairs as a wedding gift after getting Su Shu’s clear response that she would stay in the mountains.

Once the idea was set, Li Xiaoxia clapped her hands in approval, thinking it was a great and practical gift.

Su Shu could not refuse it.

Luo Gang smiled and said, “Well, I can’t make fine furniture since I don’t have the skills, but for something practical like what we use at home, it won’t take much effort, and it will be useful for you. Captain Tang is quite busy, and I can easily help.”

“Even the easiest things to make require a lot of effort.”

Luo Gang looked at his wife, and Li Xiaoxia pulled the reserved Su Shu to sit by her bed.

“Su Shu, you realize you are married, right?”

Su Shu nodded, “I know, but I really don’t mind these things. You see, I didn’t even care about the registration…” She wanted to say that she didn’t care about formalities, and living a life mattered more as long as it was with him, Tang Zelin.

The moment Li Xiaoxia mentioned registration, she couldn’t help lecturing Su Shu.

“You still have the nerve to say that? Such a big thing as registration, and you just followed him?”

“Yes.”

“Let’s not talk about what was needed for a wedding before the Apocalypse, like a house, a car, and triple golds; these things are useless now, and we only need grain. What did he give you when he married you?”

Su Shu’s eyes flickered, “Well…”

“Nothing, he just took you down the mountain to register, didn’t he?”

It was true, Su Shu thought to herself.

“What can I say about you?”

Su Shu smiled and said, “Sister Xiaoxia, I finally understand what ‘marriage’ really means now.”

“A woman gets dizzy and marries, right?”

“Hahaha!”

Li Xiaoxia said, “Marriage is a lifelong affair for a woman, whether it’s before or after the Apocalypse. Even if the sky falls, you can’t just casually marry off yourself; you’ll regret it later. Now that you’re registered, you and Captain Tang are a family. Don’t worry, we and the elders of the Ge Family are now your family. We don’t have much to give, but we are happy to give you a set of table and chairs. It will make life convenient for you and Captain Tang. Don’t refuse it. Sometimes, life can’t be too rigid; an opportunity for us to share your happiness and excitement is wonderful. The world is as it is; let’s live well day by day.”

After hearing this, Su Shu smiled faintly and nodded, finally understanding the kindness of the Luo Family.

Turning her head to Luo Gang, she gratefully said, “Then I’ll trouble you, Brother Luo.”

“No trouble at all, little sister,” Luo Gang said with a gentle smile.
