Chapter 35 Borrowing Medicine

Annan walked to the corridor of his house and opened the shooting hole of the corridor door.

Zhao Ping'an helped her improve the shooting hole. There was a door mirror inside that could be moved. When the lens was aligned with the hole, it became a cat's eye. When the lens was moved away, it became a shooting hole.

Annan looked out through the cat's eyes, but saw an unexpected figure.

It’s the wife of the man with the buzz cut, Chu Peipei.

Her brows were tightly knitted, her facial features were all twisted together, her forehead was soaked with sweat. She held the door frame with one hand and her stomach with the other, looking unsteady.

Is this an injury?

"Miss An, are you there?"

Annan didn't want to pay attention to it at first, but suddenly he thought of something.

She thought for a moment, opened the door, and held the three-edged bayonet in her hand as usual, remaining alert:

"What's wrong with you?"

When Chu Peipei saw the door open, she was delighted and said hurriedly:

"Miss An, sorry to bother you. I'm Chu Peipei, who lives in 1301, downstairs from you. Do you have any antibiotics or motherwort at home? If you do, could you lend me some?"

Annan looked at her belly.

If I remember correctly, she was a pregnant woman.

She had given Motherwort to Fugui before. It is a blood-activating and menstruation-regulating medicine and should not be taken by pregnant women.

Annan frowned. Could it be that she had a miscarriage?

She recalled carefully. In her previous life, she had little interaction with Chu Peipei and her husband. She only vaguely remembered that Short-haired man fell into the water and died while searching for supplies. Not long after, Chu Peipei was found dead at home.

She looked at Chu Peipei, who was holding her stomach and looking exhausted. She guessed that she died of weakness due to lack of medical care and medicine after the miscarriage, and no food to replenish her nutrition.

Seeing that Annan didn't say anything, Chu Peipei looked a little embarrassed and said, "I know it's a bit abrupt to ask for medicine out of the blue, but I really have no other choice but to ask you for help."

After her husband passed away, her life became even more difficult. She was exhausted from looking for food every day, overworked, and malnourished, and her fetus was already unstable.

Two days ago, several masked men broke into her home and robbed her. During the argument, they kicked her to the ground and she immediately orgasmed.

Not only did she lose her child and her husband, Chu Peipei lost the will to live and lay on the floor waiting to die.

Suddenly, Sun Peng's face appeared in my mind.

He killed her husband, leaving her helpless and her originally healthy fetus also died.

But he is still alive and well.

She is a doctor and her husband is a programmer. Their family used to live a peaceful and stable life, but now it has ended up being torn apart.

However, Sun Peng, the murderer, is still alive and well with a hypocritical face...

A strong desire to survive suddenly burst out in Chu Peipei's heart.

We must survive! We can't just let it go!

She tried desperately to induce labor of the dead fetus, but without antibiotics and blood-clearing drugs, she couldn't hold on for long.

In the entire building, or even in the entire community, there were only people with medicines at home, and she could only think of Annan and Zhao Pingan on the top floor.

It was highly likely that Zhao Ping'an didn't have anything like motherwort, so she came directly to Annan to try her luck.

Annan looked at her without any expression: "Why should I lend you the medicine?"

Chu Peipei lowered her eyes.

Yes, why should they help me?

She didn't resort to moral blackmail, nor did she pester him or plead any further. She just apologized, "I'm sorry, I was indeed rude."

There was no need to ask for help. If the other party didn't help, there was nothing she could do.

She didn't have much hope when she came here. Not to mention Annan, he was not friendly to almost everyone who came to his house.

Even if the other person is friendly, what right do you have to ask them to hand over the medicine?

When natural disasters occur, all supplies become extremely valuable, especially life-saving medicines.

If this really is the end of the world, whoever has medicine would keep it for themselves.

She said sorry angrily and wanted to leave.

Everyone has his own destiny, and perhaps my life is destined to end here.

It doesn't matter, I have tried my best.

Annan suddenly stopped her and said, "Wait."

Chu Peipei was stunned for a moment and turned around.

Annan used his pocket as a cover and took out a piece of paper from the space: "Is this the one you posted on my door?"

The note was folded in half, and the contents inside could not be seen.

Chu Peipei: "I did put a note on your door before..."

Annan stared into her eyes: "What's in it?"

"To remind you that someone is coming to your house to steal food."

Chu Peipei did not participate in the food robbery. After her husband died, she left the team in the building and went out to find food on her own.

When she came out of her house that day, she saw the door of room 1302 opposite her was wide open and the neighbors were gathered together.

Then I heard the girl on the 8th floor suggest that everyone go to the house of the girl who lived alone upstairs to steal food.

Perhaps because she was also a woman struggling to survive on her own, she immediately felt a sense of sympathy, so that night when no one else was paying attention, she wrote a note to inform the other person.

Annan had an expression that said, "As expected."

In fact, Annan had some idea that it was her, otherwise he would not have opened the door for her today.

Almost all the neighbors came to attack her that day, but the face of Chu Peipei that she saw in the mirror had not appeared that day. So she wondered if she was the note maniac.

——The note man who had reminded her in her previous life.

That note was the only kindness she received in her previous life.

With these two origins, Annan's expression eased a little:

"Thank you for reminding me at that time. What medicine do you need?"

Chu Peipei was stunned. She never expected that a well-intentioned reminder more than half a month ago would actually buy her a glimmer of hope of survival today.

"I need antibiotics, cephalosporin, azithromycin, etc. Then there is motherwort. If motherwort is not available, other drugs that can promote the discharge of residual blood will also work."

Annan asked doubtfully, "Do you know how to use medicine?"

"I'm a doctor. Although I'm not an obstetrician, I still know some basic medications."

Doctor?

Annan suddenly thought of the scribbled words on the note.

It really does look a bit like the handwritten prescriptions from doctors when I was a kid, just a bunch of messy lines.

Annan: "Wait here for a moment." Then he closed the door and looked for medicine in the space.

Three boxes of cefuroxime dispersible tablets, two boxes of motherwort granules. After thinking for a while, he took out a box of red date donkey-hide gelatin for body nourishment and a 5-liter bucket of drinking water.

We should be good people and not let her drink flood medicine.

Open the door and hand her the things.

An expression of disbelief appeared on Chu Peipei's face.

She was already surprised that the other party would lend her medicine, but she didn't expect that he would also give her supplements and drinking water.

For Annan, which has mountains of supplies, these things are just trivial matters, but in this special period when medicine is hard to come by, medicine is as valuable as gold.

Chu Peipei's eyes were a little moist: "Thank you."

She raised her head and looked at Annan seriously: "If I am lucky enough to survive, I will definitely repay you."
