While others are struggling to survive and slaying zombies in the apocalypse, I'm hoarding supp

Luo Ning's birthday is coming soon.

That day, she slept until she naturally woke up, and no one disturbed her.

After waking up, Luo Ning stood in the dressing room for a long time before finally choosing a slightly more formal pink and white dress to change into.

She carefully applied makeup and put on a set of sparkling pink diamond jewelry.

She remembered that this set of jewelry was a gift from Xiao Jie. She had visited all kinds of jewelry stores in Ningcheng, and she didn't know where he found it.

Her permed curls hung down her back; her hair was in excellent condition, and the fishtail curls still shone with shine.

I picked out a pair of light-colored high heels and put them on.

Luo Ning looked at himself in the mirror and nodded in satisfaction.

It's nice, very good-looking.

There was a knock at the door, and Luo Ning knew it was Xiao Jie.

Because 123 never knocks when they come in; they just break down the door. 45 follows their example.

Although they weren't as arrogant as it was, she hadn't seen them knock on the door either.

He walked over and opened the door, and Xiao Jie froze the moment he opened it.

She's so beautiful!

Although she likes to dress up nicely at home, she rarely wears makeup.

She has fair skin, a flawless face, large, round eyes, and lips that are always light pink.

She looks great even without makeup.

She dressed up carefully today, and Xiao Jie's breath caught in his throat the moment he saw her.

I was afraid that any big movement would disturb this beautiful dream.

"What are you staring at? Is it pretty?"

Luo Ning twirled in front of him, quite pleased with her outfit.

She was initially hesitant about whether to dress like this, but then she remembered that this was her first birthday since her parents passed away.

It was Xiao Jie and the Digital Group who surprised everyone by inviting some decent friends.

She also wanted to be more formal, wearing her favorite clothes and dressing up in a way she liked, to receive other people's blessings.

Xiao Jie spoke blankly, his eyes never leaving her.

"You're beautiful, the most beautiful girl I've ever seen."

Luo Ning gave a soft snort, like a proud princess.

"You have good taste."

A few people, number 1, 2, and 3, saw that they hadn't come out for a long time, so they ran over anxiously.

Upon seeing Luo Ning, 123 exclaimed dramatically, "Wow~, host, you look so beautiful today!" and then tried to climb onto Luo Ning's shoulder.

Xiao Jie grabbed it, "Don't ruin her hairstyle." 123 liked to tug at her hair when it sat on her shoulders.

124 and 125 also tried to pounce on Luo Ning, but Xiao Jie stopped them both.

She looks so beautiful today, how could they ruin it?

Luo Ning also tried to coax them, saying, "I won't hold you today." After all, she had spent a long time getting them dressed.

The little girl was unusually well-behaved today, not asking to be carried, but just jumping around behind her.

Xiao Jie put down 123, pulled Luo Ning to sit down in the living room, and said, "Wait for me a moment." Then he ran towards the room.

Soon, he came out with a velvet box in his hand, and took out a crown from it.

The crown was light pink overall, inlaid with pink and white stones, sparkling and translucent, and Luo Ning fell in love with it at first sight.

Xiao Jie carefully put it on her head, and in an instant she transformed from a rich young lady into a proud princess.

Luo Ning shook her head happily, "Is this a birthday present?" She liked it very much.

Xiao Jie smiled blankly, then looked at her seriously.

"No, how can a crown be your birthday present?" Besides, now is not the time to give a gift.

Luo Ning tilted her head in confusion. How did Xiao Jie get this crown? He always gave her the first beautiful things he received.

Xiao Jie gently stroked her hair. He had originally planned to give it to her tomorrow, but now the timing was also good.

Luo Ning, dressed up beautifully, stood in the room with nothing to do, though she usually had nothing to do anyway.

But today feels different, though there's not much to do outside.

Fu Xing and the others haven't arrived yet; Xiao Jie is busy, and she doesn't know who she'll be playing with.

She sat on the swing chair on the balcony playing on her phone, which Xiao Jie had set up for her later, and casually asked when Fu Xing and the others would arrive.

As soon as the message was sent, the bracelet started making a jingling sound.

Upon opening the app, Liang Xiao's voice came through: "We're here, boss, we've already set off from the base."

Bai Yu followed closely behind, "Boss, I was the first to reply to you, but Cheng Rang held me back." Cheng Rang's voice could be faintly heard protesting his innocence in the voice message.

Then there's Shen Yi, Fu Xing, and Cheng Rang; they were all clearly together.

But everyone replied to her messages.

Luo Ning smiled; this felt pretty good.

After her parents died before the apocalypse, she became very depressed and had no energy to make friends.

Needless to say, in her previous life and after the apocalypse, all she thought about every day was how to survive, and she had no interest in making friends.

As for the team members, they only got together when they were on missions. Qin Feng, who was slightly more familiar with her, ended up stabbing her in the back.

In this life, she had already given up all hope for interpersonal relationships, since she was strong and had plenty of resources anyway.

She could live a good life on her own. She never expected to meet Fu Xing and his friends who had traveled with her for a while. She was even more surprised that they were not frightened by her indifference.

Xiao Jie watched her retreating figure and swayed slightly in the sofa chair.

He could hear Fu Xing and the others' voices, and he knew from their backs that she was happy.

Then he achieved his goal in preparing this birthday party.

Although he didn't particularly like those people, making her happy was the most important thing.

The image of her sitting alone in the living room, looking so lonely, lingered in his mind.

He wanted her to be happy and joyful, and he wanted to make her world lively.

There was a knock on the door, and Luo Ning assumed it was Fu Xing and the others.

Still wondering how quickly they had arrived, Xiao Jie had already gone to open the door.

Upon opening the door, one could see Xiao Helin in the stairwell.

Luo Ning walked over and looked at Xiao Helin before realizing that she seemed to have forgotten about him.

She'd been living such a comfortable life these past few days that she'd become so complacent that she'd forgotten she'd invited Xiao Helin.

Xiao Helin was slightly out of breath, his face flushed.

He was dressed very formally today, of course, in a standard three-piece suit.

However, the choice of bow ties, brooches, and cufflinks was more refined and luxurious than usual.

Of course, Luo Ning couldn't see it at all; she didn't understand.

Today, I didn't comb my hair into a slicked-back style; instead, I let it down in a side part, and the roots were a little damp, which made me look younger.

She carries a faint woody scent, not strong, but not one that can be ignored.

Xiao Helin thought of many ways to meet again, but he never thought of this one.

She was inside the iron gate, and he was outside the iron gate.

Moreover, the outside temperature was too high, so he climbed up ten floors.

He felt like he was covered in sweat, but he was already here.

He can't go back.
