Bi Qiao'an lay weakly in the ice and snow, watching the heavy snow bury her alive. Thinking back to her three years of solitary survival in the apocalypse, her consciousness gradually blurred. ...
Bi Qiaoan was unaware of Shen Yanming's thoughts, only noticing his dark and gloomy expression.
Knowing that this meant he didn't agree, she went up and hung her arms around his neck, saying coquettishly, "Darling, let me go, otherwise, if someone bullies me in the future, I won't be able to fight back."
Shen Yanming knew that what she said was right, but he just couldn't make up his mind.
"Just think about it, what if one day a bad guy grabs me and tries to threaten you? If you give me a look, I wouldn't know how to cooperate with you to get out of trouble."
Shen Yanming didn't know where her strange idea came from, but he still said, "I can protect you!"
Bi Qiaoan pouted: "Even the best of us make mistakes, and even tigers sometimes doze off. Even if you're determined to protect me, you still have to consider unforeseen circumstances."
Besides, we have a son and a daughter. Can you protect the three of us by yourself? If I were strong enough, at least we could each protect one of them, so we wouldn't be completely helpless.
Shen Yanming knew she was right, so he could only agree. But he still couldn't help but remind her, "Then be careful in everything, and don't push yourself too hard."
Bi Qiaoan found it amusing. It felt like Shen Yanming had returned the words she had just told him that afternoon, verbatim.
To be honest, if Qi Xili hadn't told her to attend evening training despite her still being breastfeeding, Bi Qiaoan really wouldn't have made the decision to train with Li Gangtie.
Seeing that there was no way to turn back, Shen Yanming went to prepare clothes for Bi Qiaoan.
Ordinary skirts, short-sleeved shirts, and shorts were all out of the question; she could only wear loose-fitting sportswear and sweatpants. While covering her limbs, Shen Yanming also prepared knee pads for her, just in case his wife fell and hurt herself.
Bi Qiaoan didn't refuse. Since it was all for her own good, she was naturally happy to suffer less.
After getting dressed, Shen Yanming took out the leftover dinner and asked Bi Qiaoan, "Would you like to eat some more?"
Bi Qiaoan shook her head: "I have no appetite."
"Alright then, have some more fruit, I'm afraid you'll get hungry later." Shen Yanming took out a bunch of spiritual grapes for her to eat.
Bi Qiaoan looked at the dozens of fruits, each the size of a ping-pong ball, and felt a headache coming on. She didn't know if her husband genuinely didn't know how big her appetite was, or if he was just pretending.
In fact, Shen Yanming hadn't thought that much about it. For him, he would eat as much as he could, and put the uneaten food back; there was no waste.
Bi Qiaoan glanced at the bunch of grapes several times, grabbed a branch and plucked seven or eight whole grapes from it. She then had Shen Yanming put the rest back in the storage area.
Shen Yanming nodded and did as instructed.
Then I filled a thermos with the spiritual spring water for my wife, just in case she got thirsty or sleepy. Even if she had muscle aches or injuries, drinking some spiritual spring water could relieve them.
She's practically like a mother hen.
Bi Qiaoan enjoyed his care, gave him a hug to express her gratitude, and then the two left the space together.
The guards were quite lively in the first half of the night. Unlike the time when Bi Qiaoan went to the hospital to find Shen Yanming, there was almost no one on the road.
The guards weren't surprised to see Shen Yanming. After all, they'd seen him quite often recently.
He was more interested in the pretty girl next to him, because at that time, there were very few girls as pure as Bi Qiaoan.
The term "clean" here simply means that there are no pustules on the face.
Since many people know that Bi Qiaoan is currently in postpartum confinement, there is no need for her to wear a mask to cover up; that would just look strange.
Bi Qiaoan openly showed herself to everyone. When she encountered curious or questioning glances, she smiled and nodded in response.
Upon seeing this, Shen Yanming could only grip Bi Qiaoan's hand tightly, asserting his sovereignty in this manner.
Bi Qiaoan could only helplessly indulge him, and the others smiled kindly when they saw this.
The two arrived at the lecture hall in no time. As soon as they entered, they saw that Qi Xili had already arranged the seats.
As he promised, the first row of seats directly facing the door was reserved for the couple, and even the seats around them were empty.
The guards who came to the class didn't know what Qi Xili was up to, but when they saw Bi Qiaoan's clean face, they understood.
They weren't jealous; after all, every fellow countryman who hadn't contracted impetigo was now a rare and protected species. They were willing to be tolerant.
After thanking everyone, Shen Yanming and Bi Qiaoan sat down.
As time went on, the couple realized that there weren't many people attending the class. It was probably only about a third of the number before the sunlight mutation. No wonder Qi Xili dared to allocate two rows of empty seats for them. Apparently, the classroom was never even full.
Regardless of the circumstances, the couple had to accept his help in preventing others from sitting in the first two rows.
Otherwise, they wouldn't care who you are; they'd sit however they want.
Qi Xili walked to the podium, first called out the names, and then explained with a smile: "Those who came to participate in the evening training today are all guards who have used inhibitors. Everyone doesn't need to be too reserved, and there is no risk of catching impetigo from each other."
As for the lady in the front row, I believe you all know that she just finished her postpartum confinement period and it was not easy for her to find time to attend the evening training.
Because of her special experience, she avoided impetigo, so please be considerate and try to avoid that area so that breastfeeding mothers don't get infected too, okay?
The trainees present all smiled and nodded, loudly replying, "Okay!"
The couple weren't unreasonable; they stood up and bowed to the back of the room. This made everyone even more satisfied with them, and even those who were feeling a bit acidic felt much better.
Qi Xili was very pleased to see this. Then he began today's lesson.
"After a two-month break, I don't know if you've forgotten what you were supposed to learn in the evening training sessions. Let's do a spot check, and that'll be a good review."
No sooner had Qi Xili finished speaking than a chorus of wails was heard.
He remained unmoved and instead laughed, "You're still not happy about being given a heads-up? Have you forgotten that the evening training content will be assessed?"
Forehead……
Everyone was dumbfounded.
If Qi Xili hadn't mentioned it, they really wouldn't have thought of it.
"Alright, I'll ask questions, you answer, and of course, I'll also randomly select people to answer. Treat this as a chance to review and reinforce your knowledge. You know, those who didn't manage to get their hands on the inhibitors don't get this benefit!"
After Qi Xili finished speaking, everyone present adjusted their mindset and listened attentively to his questions. Many were even quite glad that they had been able to attend the lecture tonight.
Qi Xili spent forty-five minutes reviewing the knowledge he had previously taught, and asked questions to seven or eight people in between.
The number of people who answered correctly and those who didn't was about half and half. He didn't say anything, and after explaining, he started today's topic.
