Apocalypse: My Sweetie Is Tough but Cute-Chapter 164 - 163: An Apocalyptic Life from Scratch (37)
Chapter 164 -163: An Apocalyptic Life from Scratch (37)
Once, twice, thrice… it’s already been over a dozen times!
In the past two days, Su Shu had already tried to minimize the number of times she went out after dark, but it was still inevitable that every time she stepped out, she got “sized up” in various ways.
If these probing looks had come from ordinary people, she would probably have blown her top by now.
But when these inquisitive and curious gazes came from the soldiers standing guard at the settlement.
Su Shu could only feel a ring of question marks above her head!
???
She looked down at herself, two arms and two legs, no different from them, right?
Why were they always making excuses to “walk back and forth” near her, sneaking glances in the process?
Even Li Xiaoxia, who lived next door, was aware of the odd situation.
That day, as soon as Su Shu returned to her tent with her dinner, Sister Xiaoxia quietly asked her, “Sister Su, I heard the soldiers have been patrolling our area quite diligently recently?”
“Seems like it,” she sighed in response.
Seeing her slightly furrowed brows, Li Xiaoxia realized that her husband Luo Gang’s guess might actually be right.
“Luo Gang told me they keep sneaking glances at you?”
Su Shu placed the lunchbox down, sat on the edge of the bed, and began preparing milk for Xiao’ai. Her hand paused while scooping the milk powder, and she was stunned for two seconds.
Was it that obvious?! So it really was directed at her and not her being narcissistic?
“I don’t know what’s going on. Every time I go in or out, they sneak peeks at me. You know, one or two glances, and I could just shamelessly assume they liked looking at me, but Sister Xiaoxia, I now feel like a monkey in a zoo, leaving where I live every day, then being ‘observed’ by others, it’s depressing.”

Li Xiaoxia frowned and said in a low voice, “These soldiers are too much, behaving like this.”
“Yeah,” Su Shu agreed.
She had once thought of them as highly disciplined soldiers, and had even argued with someone a few days ago because she couldn’t bear to hear others speak ill of Tang Zelin’s troops.
But in just a few days, his soldiers had slapped her face figuratively!
Before, she couldn’t even see what the soldiers looked like in the temporary barracks under the wall opposite their tents.
Now, she could recognize every single person from that camouflage tent opposite them!
“Sister Su, why don’t you just stay inside for the next few days? Let my husband, Luo Gang, fetch the stuff for you.”
“No need, I can handle it, it’s okay.” She poured hot water, mixed it with the spoon, and after dissolving the powder, placed it on the small table for Xiao’ai to come down and drink the milk.
The small table was quite simple, hastily assembled by Luo Gang, but Su Shu felt it was already very good, not hindering its use at all.
After taking care of Xiao’ai, she raised her head, her gaze resolute as she said, “It’s not that I have any issues, let them look if they want to. Really, am I afraid of them now?!”
“Sigh…” Li Xiaoxia let out a sigh.
Su Shu was just stubborn; it wasn’t her problem, so why should she hide in her tent like a turtle every day just because someone looked at her a few times? She wasn’t going to lose a piece of flesh.
Although she said that, the feeling of being sized up all the time was still very uncomfortable.
Even a Clay Figure has a bit of a temper, and finally, while she was on her way to the food distribution place to fetch hot water, when once again a young Soldier sneakily glanced at her, she suddenly stopped, turned around, and without dodging, headed straight for the Soldier.
“Do you need something from me?” she asked bluntly.
The other party, taken aback by her sudden approach and questioning, stood there at a loss, unable to advance or retreat.
