Gong father and Lin Mao were rarely seen keeping the younger generation company while watching TV, let alone watching cartoons. Although it was to meet Gong Lixin's wishes in the beginning, once they saw Gong Lixin's excitement, they couldn't help but be infected. They felt that the show was fun and the pain in their hearts slowly eased.
The cartoon had a profound plot and was very suitable for adults to watch. Lin Wenbo and Song Haoran had already forgotten their distracting thoughts and immersed themselves in the ancient world and the sword battles.
Gong Lixin, who was holding his big-mouthed monkey plushie, squinted his eyes in happiness and nestled into Song Haoran's warm and broad arms. With various characters in the story, he experienced a Jianghu that he had never seen before and he was satisfied with such a novel experience.
Song Haoran sometimes talked to the boy in his arms, sometimes stretching his hand out to rub the boy's smooth, black hair. He felt that if he was with this youth, only then would he experience the greatest happiness for the rest of his life.

Lin Wenbo sneaked a peek at the two intimate people, then looked at Gong Xiangyi's face which was black with a gloomy atmosphere around her. His eyes grew dark. Right now, he was somewhat jealous of Song Haoran. He also wanted to be accompanied by someone when he was depressed. There was no need to do anything special, just hug each other and comfort each other. But the person he needed the most didn't need him. Recently, whenever he saw her, she was always urging him to buy supplies or rushing to leave without saying a word.
Lin Wenbo knew the apocalypse was imminent. There were many things to prepare but she shouldn't have been so busy to the point she couldn't stop and take the time to say a few words to her lover. He felt it necessary to have a good talk with Gong Xiangyi. Otherwise, there was a common saying for the two of them – the husband and wife were birds who lived in the forest, but the moment disaster struck, they all flew away and separated. [1]
In Lin Wenbo's heart, Gong Xiangyi seemed like a person without feelings. On her end, Gong Xiangyi forcefully repressed the emotions in her heart and waited until the anime finally finished playing. She quickly picked up the remote control and switched to the international news station.
The graceful and ethereal ending song came to an abrupt end and was replaced by the noisy background of the news channel. Gong father and the others frowned but they didn't say anything. After all, they had been waiting for the news about R country.
Gong Xiangyi stared at the TV screen sternly, completely unaware of how badly the others viewed her actions. She wanted her family to live peacefully during the apocalypse. Her heart was in the right place but she was missing out on the opportunity to spend the last few happy days with her family. The meaning of life was not to become the strongest but to cherish what you have. This truth, she wouldn't figure it out until it was too late.
On the TV screen, the Prime Minister of R country finally appeared and issued a statement under the bright flashes of numerous cameras and microphones. He claimed that the nuclear power plant protection measures in R country were strict and there would be no nuclear leakage accidents caused by the tsunami, and told the neighboring countries not to worry.
Gong Xiangyi sneered, with her voice full of sarcasm, she said, "R country people really are liars. Currently, the nuclear power plant already had an accident. R country secretly stopped the news from being leaked and issued a security statement to the media in order to avoid condemnation from the international community. After all, nuclear pollution is serious. It will not only affect their country and their neighbors but many countries on the other side of the ocean will be affected as well. They can't bear the consequences. Just watch, 17 employees of the nuclear power plant were killed and this news couldn't be concealed anymore."
