78. Chapter 78: Sharp tongue but soft heart



Leng Yi put Xiaoxue down and patted Aqi's head. Aqi got off Yang Qing, curled up on the carpet, and held Xiaoxue in his arms.

Leng Yi gently picked up Yang Qing. She was startled for a moment, and Leng Yi quickly comforted her, "Don't be afraid, I'm just carrying you to bed."

Lu Lin quickly lifted the quilt and let Yang Qing come in to help her cover herself with the quilt.

"Then I'll go over first and let Xiaoxue sleep here. Can you help take care of her?"

Lu Lin nodded and lowered her voice, "Don't worry!"

Leng Yi walked to the door and turned around, "Can I sleep in your room? It will be more convenient for me to take care of Xiaoxue..."

Lu Lin smiled, is it to make it easier to take care of Yang Qing?

"I have no problem with it, but... I'd better ask Qingqing tomorrow." It would be bad if Yang Qing disagreed and I acted on my own.

He took out two keys from the bedside table and gave them to Leng Yi, "This is the key to our front door, take it first."

"Thank you!" Leng Yi nodded, went back to his room, lit some charcoal in the barbecue grill and placed it next to the bed so that he wouldn't feel so cold when sleeping.

It was already 10:30 in the morning when Yang Qing woke up. He hurriedly turned off the heater. Wouldn't it have burned out overnight?

I looked outside and saw a vast expanse of white. How could it resemble a southern coastal city at all?

I took the thermometer off the window and hung it outside. When I turned on the heating in the room, the temperature was no longer accurate.

Suddenly I heard a noise coming from the kitchen. Could it be a thief? No way, there are several security doors blocking the way.

He picked up a stick and walked over, and saw Leng Yi busy in the kitchen.

"Why are you here?" Yang Qing was surprised.

Leng Yi smiled, "This is the key Lu Lin gave me. I came to pick up Xiaoxue and make breakfast for you."

"It's just a mess!" Yang Qing frowned. It was so inconvenient for Leng Yi to be here. He couldn't use his own space casually.

Although I give him opportunities, it is not yet to the point where I can share space with him.

Leng Yi pursed his lips and said, "If you think it's inappropriate, I will take Xiaoxue back immediately."

Yang Qing felt a little embarrassed when he said that. "No, let's have breakfast together. You keep the key, but you can't just come in casually. What if we don't have any clothes on..."

Leng Yi blushed, "I know..."

Lu Lin came out and poked her head in. "It's too cold outside. Should we eat in the room?"

Leng Yi looked at Yang Qing for her opinion.

"Come into the room and move the coffee table in." Yang Qing nodded.

Leng Yi quickly moved the coffee table into the room and placed it next to the carpet so that they could sit on the carpet and eat.

Yang Qing turned on the heater again and poured some dog food for Aqi and Xiaoxue.

Lu Lin sat next to Yang Qing, looking at the steaming noodles on the coffee table, and was surprised, "Hand-rolled noodles?"

Leng Yi nodded, "I'm from the north, so I'm pretty good at making noodles."

"That's amazing! Our Qingqing will be blessed in the future." Lu Lin nudged Yang Qing with her elbow. Yang Qing glanced at her and said, "You talk too much."

"Then you can make dumplings too, right? We still have some flour at home. Let's make dumplings together later?" Lu Lin said again.

"No problem." Leng Yi nodded. "I just happened to have so much beef. Let's make beef dumplings. By the way, the temperature is so low now that the beef doesn't need to be put in the freezer. We can just leave it outside."

Yang Qing thought about it and decided that there was no need to waste that electricity. The refrigerator and freezer could be turned off, and the generator could be used exclusively for heating.

Everyone started eating noodles. Leng Yi looked at Yang Qing, "How is it?"

"Not bad!" Yang Qing nodded.

Leng Yi's mouth curled up.

"By the way, Leng Yi said he wanted to live in my room. I thought it was empty anyway, so I let him stay..." Lu Lin looked at Yang Qing.

Leng Yi knew what Yang Qing was thinking and quickly said, "No, it's not convenient. You two girls..."

Lu Lin looked at Leng Yi and then at Yang Qing. What did they say just now?

Forget it, they have already made the decision, so I can't interrupt.

After eating the noodles, Lu Lin boiled some hot water to wash the dishes, and then immediately hid in the room because it was too cold outside.

Yang Qing glanced at the thermometer and saw that it was already twenty-one degrees below zero. The temperature was dropping too fast.

Leng Yi went back and came back immediately, handing Yang Qing a walkie-talkie, "Take this, it's easy to keep in touch when we're not together."

When Yang Qing saw the walkie-talkie, he remembered that he still had space, and even a satellite phone, but he didn't know if it could be used in the current situation.

Leng Yi turned on the walkie-talkie, adjusted the frequency, and connected to the signal. "Keep in touch at any time."

Yang Qing did not refuse, she knew Leng Yi cared about her.

"This is a military walkie-talkie, effective within a range of fifteen to thirty kilometers. If you encounter problems that cannot be solved in the future, you can call me." Leng Yi said.

Yang Qing nodded. Is it so advanced? His walkie-talkie is just ordinary, with a range of only three to five kilometers. Leng Yi’s is professional.

"Don't go there alone. It's a waste of charcoal. We have the electric heater on in the room anyway." Yang Qing said.

Lu Lin laughed secretly in the room. This guy has a sharp tongue but a soft heart.

Leng Yi raised the corner of his mouth and followed Yang Qing into the room. Lu Lin was looking outside the window. "Qingqing, I've never seen such heavy snow before. Can we go out and play?"

"No, there's water outside and the ice shouldn't have frozen yet. If you step on it, you'll fall into the water. Let's wait a few days before going out!" Yang Qing said.

"Oh!" Lu Lin was a little disappointed. "You said it's like this here, what about the Northeast? It must be minus 60 or 70 degrees Celsius?"

Yang Qing shook his head, "Who knows?"

"Can you ice skate?" Leng Yi turned his head to look at Yang Qing.

Yang Qing shook her head. Although she had experienced her past life, she and Lu Lin were in the rescue station at that time. They didn't dare to go out without cold-proof clothes. They stayed in the room all day and couldn't open the window. It was dirty and smelly inside.

Even in such an environment, they didn't dare leave because they would freeze to death if they went out.

They hid there for three whole months, and when the temperature rose unbearable, they ran out of the rescue station.

So let alone skating, I didn’t even touch the snow.

"Wait until the ice thickens, I'll teach you!" Leng Yi said.

"Okay!" Yang Qing nodded. "It just so happens that I found some ski equipment while searching the building, so I can use it."

He just realized that he had let the cat out of the bag after he said it, but Leng Yi didn't ask any further questions and just looked outside silently.

"By the way, we said yesterday that we would distribute the food today. Look..." Lu Lin looked at Yang Qing.

"No rush, they still have food anyway." Yang Qing shook his head, "Go up and see how they are doing."

The three of them went upstairs together. The draft in the corridor made them feel cool.

Gao Yang came to open the door and the three of them hurried into the house.

"How are you guys? Are you all right?" Yang Qing asked.

"Well, it's much better after burning charcoal last night. But the power bank is out of power..." Gao Yang took out the power bank from his heated down vest.

Yang Qing nodded. The heating vest was always on, and the power bank could only be used for a few hours.

"It's okay, give them all to me, I'll take them down to charge." Yang Qing said.
