After calming everyone down, Chen Yu arrived at Lin Hong's house.

Closing the door instantly shuts out the wind and snow.

"Old Lin, is there no heating in here?" Chen Yu frowned as he felt the room was still chilly.

The geothermal power plant produces some excess steam, so Chen Yu simply uses this steam as heating to supply the residential area for researchers' families.

These scientists are his most precious resource; they are all old and frail, and cannot withstand temperatures of tens of degrees below zero.

"Sigh~! We don't know what the situation is yet. Resources are limited, and I'm all alone, so I turned off most of the heating and only turned it on in my bedroom," Lin Hong sighed.

"In our family, everyone is crammed into one room, and the heating in the other areas is turned off," several young people chimed in.

"Hmm." Chen Yu nodded slightly. Indeed, the heating generated by the geothermal power plant is limited. If all the rooms in every villa and apartment were heated, it might not be very effective.

This is the difference between these highly qualified scientists and ordinary people; they know how to rationally allocate and utilize limited resources during this special period, and they all tacitly abide by it.

Ordinary people, without prior consultation, how could they possibly have this awareness? Most people would probably have a "why not use it if it's free" mentality, fearing that others would take advantage of them.

"Xiao Chen, is Lele...is she alright?" Lin Hong steered the conversation to the point, asking the question that was on his mind most.
