The two of them sat in front of the coffee table reading books, while Lu Lin curled up in bed watching TV series. Before the end of the world, Yang Qing downloaded a lot of TV series, which he could watch as long as the tablet was charged.
Lu Lin looked at the two people in front of her from time to time. The girl was pretty and the boy was handsome. They were really pleasing to the eyes, even better looking than those in idol dramas.
Yang Qing was taking notes while reading. To be honest, these professional knowledge were learned in his previous life, and he had forgotten a lot of them. Maybe he could use them in the future if he picked them up now.
Leng Yi turned his head to look at Yang Qing. She had short hair that reached her collarbone, and her black hair curved into a beautiful arc behind her ears.
She lowered her head and read a book. The orange light made her facial features look quiet and soft. She had a pair of big and long almond-shaped eyes, long and curled eyelashes, and a small and straight nose. She was really beautiful.
Yang Qing felt someone was looking at her, so she turned to look at him, "What are you looking at?"
Leng Yi's face turned red as he was caught peeking.
"Nothing!" Leng Yi hurriedly picked up the book to cover up.
"Is this book not good? Should I change it for you?"
"Uh, no need..." Leng Yi touched his forehead, feeling a little embarrassed.
"I'd better go back to my room first!" Leng Yi stood up and accidentally hit his leg against the coffee table. He gasped in pain and felt even more embarrassed. He ran away in a hurry.
Lu Lin chuckled. She never saw Leng Yi being so impulsive.
Seeing Leng Yi leave, Yang Qing locked the door and sat on the bed. "I'm going to go into the space to wash up."
"Oh!" Lu Lin nodded.
When Yang Qing came out, he brought out a bunch of washed grapes and two apples. "It's inconvenient for us to eat anything while he's here."
Lu Lin smiled, took the grapes and started eating, "Qingqing, have you ever thought about whether you should tell him about the space if you really start a relationship with him?"
Yang Qing took a bite of the apple and thought for a moment, "We'll see how things turn out when the time comes. We'll see how far our relationship has progressed and whether he's trustworthy."
"However, from what we have seen in our daily interactions, he is indeed a reliable person with good character. As for other aspects, they remain to be tested."
Lu Lin nodded. Yang Qing was really rational and would not blindly trust the other person just because they were in love.
This is a good thing. There is no need to worry about her being blinded by love and doing something stupid.
For the next three days, everyone practiced boxing in the house. On the fourth day, they saw someone walking on the ice outside, so Gao Yang and the others came and knocked on the door.
"Yang Qing, should we go out and find some firewood? We've almost used up all the charcoal these past few days, and we've also used up a lot of firewood."
"Sure!" Yang Qing nodded. The snow had stopped, but the weather was getting colder.
I looked at the thermometer hanging by the window and it was minus thirty degrees!
It's really cold.
"We still have to leave someone at home." Yang Qing said, looking at Li Shengnan, "How about you stay?"
Yang Qing was thinking about the fact that some people wanted to come up and smash, loot and rob a few days ago. Because they were there, they didn't dare to do anything wrong. If they saw that people had left, they might come to cause trouble.
Li Shengnan has a certain fighting ability, so I am relatively relieved.
"No problem!" Li Shengnan agreed immediately.
As usual, Yang Qing left a rifle for her, because only with weapons could she protect the house.
"Where do we find firewood? Is it still the same furniture factory as before?" Wang Min asked.
Yang Qing thought for a moment and said, "It's so cold now, everyone is short of firewood. The firewood over there might have been snatched up by someone. But there are several furniture factories in that area. Let's go take a look."
"How are we going to drag the firewood back then?" Lu Lin asked.
"How about we take a speedboat or a rubber boat out and use it as a sled? That would save a lot of effort." Leng Yi said.
"Okay!" Yang Qing nodded, but he didn't know if the assault boat would freeze and break in the temperature of minus thirty degrees Celsius. The rubber boat was made of plastic and might be stronger.
"Just bring a rubber boat? See if it works."
Leng Yi nodded and went to the eighth floor to drag the rubber boat down. Yang Qing carried a bag with weapons and some food.
Give them the power banks of the heating vests, charge them all, and they won’t feel cold when wearing the vests.
Then I put on a down jacket, cotton pants, hat, scarf, and gloves, fully armed and wrapped myself tightly.
The others also made their own preparations. After so many times, everyone had gained experience and knew that one should always prepare some self-defense items when going out.
"Take Aqi and Xiaoxue with you!" Leng Yi said.
Aqi is a Husky, originally a Siberian Husky, while Xiaoxue is an Alaskan Malamute, one of the oldest polar sled dogs. This kind of ice and snow is their favorite environment.
When I brought the two little ones downstairs, they were indeed full of energy and ran wildly on the ice.
When the others saw the two fat and strong dogs, their eyes widened. How much meat did they need?
"Aqi, Xiaoxue, come back!" Yang Qing shouted. If they ran too far, they wouldn't be able to catch up with them, and it would be bad if they were spotted.
The two little ones ran back and circled around Yang Qing.
Leng Yi, “…”
This dog was raised in vain.
Aqi jumped onto the rubber boat, then jumped out and bit Yang Qing's trouser leg and dragged him in.
"Does it want you to sit inside? Is it pulling you?" Lu Lin said.
"It's true!" Gao Yang on the side was very surprised. Aqi is so smart.
"Do you really think of yourself as a sled puller?" Yang Qing smiled and touched Archie's head.
Aqi barked at her, and Xiaoxue bit Leng Yi's trouser leg to make him sit.
Leng Yi: What a good boy!
"Okay, let's take a ride!" Yang Qing smiled, took out the rope that was originally prepared for tying firewood from the bag, put it on Aqi and Xiaoxue, got on the rubber boat, and Leng Yi also got on.
As soon as the two dogs were put on the ropes, their blood seemed to awaken and they rushed forward at lightning speed. Yang Qing leaned back due to inertia without paying attention, and Leng Yi quickly supported her waist.
After circling on the ice, the two dogs turned back again. They were going so fast that Yang Qing was almost thrown out. Leng Yi had to hold her arm tightly.
However, because he was wearing too many clothes, Yang Qing didn't feel anything.
"Stop!" Yang Qing shouted.
The two little ones stopped and surrounded the two people, sticking out their tongues continuously, with steam coming out of their bodies.
The people watching were filled with envy and hatred.
However, seeing that there were so many of them and the men were all tall and strong, they did not dare to act rashly.
"By the way, didn't you say that day that you wanted to learn ice skating and brought some stuff with you?" Leng Yi looked at Yang Qing with a gentle expression.
"Yes, I almost forgot if you hadn't mentioned it." Yang Qing smiled and took out two pairs of ice skates from her bag. "But I really don't know how to do it at all, so please don't laugh at me."
"No!" Leng Yi pursed his lips.
Yang Qing threw the bag on the rubber boat and took out the ice skates for both of them to change into.
After putting on her shoes, Yang Qing couldn't stand at all. Her legs seemed not to be her own. They kept slipping and she almost did the splits. Leng Yi quickly hugged her.
"Slow down!" Leng Yi held her hands and they stood face to face. "Lean forward slightly and open your legs a little. Just like that, slowly back away. Don't rush."
Yang Qing grabbed his hands and stepped back a little. It seemed to be okay, so he slowly let go of them.
As soon as he let go, his feet slipped and he fell down. Yang Qing instinctively wanted to grab something, so he stretched out his hands and ended up pulling Leng Yi's pants down.
Lu Lin and the others nearby burst into laughter when they saw this, and Jiang Hao laughed so hard that tears came out.
Leng Yi was horrified. He grabbed his pants and quickly pulled them up. His ears turned red.
Yang Qing had already fallen at Leng Yi's feet. Seeing this, her face turned red and she buried her head in the ice. She was so scared!
