Chapter 505: I Offer Myself to You
Chapter 505: I Offer Myself to You
That’s right, today is Jiang Ning’s birthday.
Her birthday falls at the end of the year, very close to the Spring Festival.
Jiang Ning still remembers that in the first year of the natural disaster, Huo Yishen accompanied her on her birthday.
At that time, they weren’t a couple yet, and she was quite hesitant about dating. Now, looking back, she has no idea how he managed to stay around.
It was also extremely cold that year. Zhang Chao, Lu Yu, Zheng Weili, Huo Yishen, Doudou, and Coke all stayed with her for her birthday and cooked several delicious dishes.
It was the first time in her life that so many people celebrated her birthday with her.
Unexpectedly, it has been ten years since the natural disaster.
The only ones who stayed by her side were Huo Yishen, Doudou, and Coke.
From her 20th birthday, ten full years had passed, and Huo Yishen had never missed a single one.
Ten years, so many separations and deaths, yet he has always been there.
Jiang Ning was overwhelmed with joy and tears flowed down her face.
Huo Yishen was stunned, “What’s wrong?”
“If you hadn’t said anything, I would have forgotten today is my birthday,” Jiang Ning hugged his neck. “Mr. Huo, thank you for remembering.”
But she is one year older.
Jiang Ning doesn’t spend much time on dressing up. She mainly focuses on wearing something comfortable. After all, it’s the end of the world, and if she dressed flashy, she’d be the first target.
But she still spends a lot of time on skincare.
Various face masks, skincare products, and expensive creams—she didn’t hesitate to apply them generously.
That’s why, even at 30, she still looked young.
But it was still different from when she was 20.
It was only after being with her that Huo Yishen realized how much women care about their age, but he never cared. “Anning, everyone will grow old, whether it’s ten years or twenty. I’ll be with you as you grow old.”
With those words, Jiang Ning’s mood brightened.
Speaking of which, Huo Yishen has changed too. While she still admires his looks, it’s undeniable that he has gone from a youthful handsome man to someone more mature.
Not as fresh, but especially fragrant.
Their gazes, once ordinary, gradually became more intense, slowly turning into something they couldn’t pull away from.
Jiang Ning teased him, “Mr. Huo, it’s my birthday today, what gift have you prepared?”
Gift? Whether it was something he had stored up before or something he had gotten through zero-yuan shopping in recent years, it was all kept in her space.
These days, Huo Yishen’s pocket is cleaner than his face.
But after ten years of sharing a bed, both his emotional intelligence and thick skin had improved.
He turned over and let Jiang Ning sit on him, straightened his waist, and subtly hinted, “The gift is right in front of you, haven’t you noticed?”
Jiang Ning almost burst out laughing.
You rascal, you’re getting more and more slick.
But Jiang Ning didn’t mind, after all, in a world ravaged by disaster for ten years, which family doesn’t lack oil and water?
In the past ten years, their relationship has become more stable, but the passion has faded, no longer like the early years when they couldn’t get enough of each other.
The instability of wandering and the constant anxiety over safety affected their relationship.
The saying “distance makes the heart grow fonder” was really true.
Breathing the same air every day, even the fiercest passion had burned out.
It had been a long time since they really communicated with each other.
They were floating in despair on the sea, living in the cold of the Arctic, constantly on guard against the dangers outside, leaving little room for other desires.
Being teased by him, Jiang Ning suddenly thought of something.
She reached to touch his waist, “Let me check the goods. If it doesn’t work, I’ll return it.”
Well, fortunately, the male dog waist is still there, and the abdominal muscles haven’t disappeared.
It had been a long time since they had shared intimacy, and Huo Yishen’s reaction was a bit intense. “Shall we go inside?”
The container was not soundproof, and any little noise could be heard. The problem was, whether it was Doudou or the wolf-hearted, dog-minded couple, their hearing and curiosity are great.
After a few months without this, Jiang Ning wasn’t shy. “Mm.”
A long separation is better than a new marriage, so Huo Yishen’s birthday gift is very sincere.
It was such a storm that Jiang Ning almost died and couldn’t recover for a long time.
By the time they came out of the room, it was almost noon.
Doudou came back from patrol and jumped in front of her with a bright smile, “Happy birthday, sister-in-law.”
Ten years had passed, and from a little sticky rice dumpling, Doudou had grown into a graceful and elegant young woman. Time really flies.
Coke and Bai Xue came over, wagging their tails.
The three little ones were humming in their nest and slowly crawled out.
Jiang Ning was surprised to find that they had opened their eyes.
Da Bao’s pupils were like a Coke, while Er Bao and San Bao resembled Bai Xue, with cold and aloof eyes.
The mixed-blood babies had impressive looks and felt wonderfully plump in her hands.
Since the destruction of the United Base, life in the Arctic had become much more peaceful, with a few more families moving nearby.
They are on guard against each other, and no one dares to get close easily. The closest one is more than 1 kilometer away, and they live in ice houses built from snow, so they live peacefully without getting in each other’s way.
Doudou talked about what she saw during the patrol, “Brother and sister-in-law, the family in white robes is getting along with the Russians. Just now, the Russians came over on snowmobiles. It looks like they were exchanging things.”
The rich group, about fifty people in total, consumed a lot of resources. They were wealthy and felt entitled, so it was no surprise that they got close to the Russians.
If they want safety, they have to pay the price.

There are either strong winds or snow in the Arctic. It is cold, and there is nothing to do. Doudou decides to make a cake for Jiang Ning.
There are ingredients for making cakes in the space, and Jiang Ning found them all.
So, Doudou spent half a day making the cake batter, whipping the cream, and finally made a delicate fruit cake.
The baking smells very good, but the vent is on the roof, and the neighbors are far away, so there is not much smell coming out.
After living casually for so long, it was nice to have a little ceremony now and then.
Jiang Ning found a set of sexy clothes suitable for celebrities, applied light makeup, and even did her hair.
She had been exercising regularly, and her body was in good shape, with no extra fat around her waist, which looked delicate and fit to the touch.
Jiang Ning was quite pleased with how she looked.
When she came out, not only could Huo Yishen not take his eyes off her, but even the dog was attracted. “Woof!”
Doudou had never seen her put on makeup and was extremely surprised, “Sister-in-law, you’re so beautiful.”
It was as if she had become a different person. She was so stunning that she could steal one’s soul.
Huo Yishen came back to his senses, “Sit down, let’s eat.”
It was her birthday, and everyone did something for her.
Huo Yishen cooked the meal himself, pan-frying steaks, and had wine ready.
The table was covered with tablecloths, knives and forks, plates, and candles.
The red wine swirled, and the candlelight flickered.
Doudou put candles on the cake, “Sister-in-law, make a wish.”
Her wish for ten years in the disaster was the same as the one she made in the first year.
She hoped that the people she cared about would stay healthy and happy through the disaster.
Even if they couldn’t meet, she wished them well wherever they were in the world.
After making a wish and cutting the cake, Doudou’s skills were impressive, and the cake tasted wonderful.
The fruits are all picked from the black soil garden, which is both delicious and fresh.
Jiang Ning loved cream, and even though she worked out every day and wasn’t afraid of gaining weight, she couldn’t resist eating two big pieces.
Drinking red wine and eating steak, the atmosphere was particularly warm.
It almost felt like the disaster never happened, and her life was perfect and happy.
After the steak, there was a seafood feast.
King crabs, shrimp, mussels, squid, and more.
Afraid that Jiang Ning would dirty her clothes, Huo Yishen peeled them and put them in her bowl, “Eat slowly.”
Doudou was envious and had an inexplicable longing in her heart, but who knew that there would be some in her bowl the next moment.
“Thank you, brother.”
Having a lover, a sister, and a dog made Huo Yishen extremely satisfied.
After eating and drinking, Jiang Ning sat on the sofa to eat fruit to relieve the greasiness and then opened an entertainment show to pass the time.
Huo Yishen sat down next to her, “Are we going to celebrate the Spring Festival this year?”
Jiang Ning didn’t hesitate. “Yes, we will.”
