Apocalypse: My Sweetie Is Tough but Cute
Chapter 549 - Chapter 549 Chapter 550 I Wonder How Hes Doing

Chapter 549: Chapter 550: I Wonder How He’s Doing? Chapter 549: Chapter 550: I Wonder How He’s Doing? The family gathered around the table, all except for Tang Zelin, who was missing. It was slightly regrettable, but that’s how it is with military personnel.

Sometimes it’s hard to balance loyalty to one’s country and filial duty.

Patriarch Tang Husheng, with his booming voice, declared, “Let’s not talk about that at the table, come on, let’s eat!”

Sitting next to Aunt Song, who had just served the two children their food, she kept adding more to Su Shu’s bowl.

“Eat up, you must be tired from the journey.”

Aunt Song didn’t know exactly where Su Shu had come from, but she had heard from her brother-in-law that it was not an easy place.

So, she naturally felt that Su Shu must be worn out.

Su Shu, unable to refuse the hospitality, toasted to the elders, and honestly ate quite a bit more.

The table was full of dishes, not as lavish as before, but with vegetables and meat; given the circumstances, it was already an extremely grand reception.

She kept this heartfelt gesture in mind.

But at the same time, she also realized that the days ahead might become increasingly challenging.

Even the military compounds in the provincial capitals were declining in living standards; it seemed the situation was more serious than she had thought.

In her previous life, although the first winter was tough, it was said that in the Capital and some first-tier provincial cities, life was still bearable.

But in this life, as winter approached, the air was filled with tension everywhere.

Although she felt somewhat gloomy, Su Shu did not show it on her face, keeping it to herself for now, planning to inquire into the ‘space’ system later.

Lu Tong and Little Fatty were originally quite uneasy, but fortunately, Zhan Yue was very lively.

Coming from the south to the north, there was a sense of unfamiliarity, compounded by the onset of the Apocalypse, even a large complex didn’t allow children to play outside as before.

Thus, Zhan Yue had been very lonely, but suddenly having two younger ‘brothers’ brightened her spirits.

She was only a few years older than Lu Tong, who was a child with strong opinions. After talking for a bit, they actually got along quite well.

With her around to make introductions, gradually, the two boys became noticeably less reserved.

Once they loosened up, watching the tempting food on the table, Lu Tong secretly swallowed his saliva, and even Little Fatty seemed to have his appetite whetted to the point of drooling.

At the table, the adults often simultaneously ate, drank, and chatted.

Tang Husheng was especially joyful today, exchanging drinks with his brother-in-law Zhan An, the aroma of the wine delightful as if they were in heaven.

“Xiaosu, did you and that young man get your certificates done?” Tang Husheng suddenly remembered to ask.

“Yes, we did, but I left the marriage certificate at home, didn’t bring it with me. I’ll show it to Dad later,” Su Shu replied with a smile.

“Good, good, it’s good that you did.”

Although slightly disappointed, he was sure that his daughter-in-law was definitely a part of the Tang Family now, and she wasn’t going anywhere.

During the meal, they also touched on the hardships Tang Zelin was facing at the Northern Border.

Su Shu didn’t say much; she could tell Tang Husheng was only casually inquiring about whether Tang Zelin was facing great difficulties there, not really asking for details.

Perhaps, it wasn’t suitable to discuss these matters in front of the children.

So she simply mentioned that more troops had been stationed there, more people meant more strength, and hopefully, everything would be fine.

Naturally, she hoped that everything was fine there, wishing for Tang Zelin to come home soon.

She wondered how he was doing at the Northern Border now?

Whether he was hungry or cold, whether he had been injured.

She hoped that he and the Little Snake King were safe together, and she quietly prayed in her heart.

“Come on, cheers! To our family reunion.”

The clink of their glasses brought a tangible sense of togetherness to Su Shu.

She truly had married Tang Zelin, becoming a wife to him, a daughter-in-law to the Tang Family.

Su Shu now had a family.
