Chapter 09 Chapter 9
Although Zhang Keqing was rescued, this incident caused many psychics in the base to have opinions about Qiao Yanrou, and even hostility towards her.
Many people with special abilities believe that Qiao Yanrou should not mind the contact between Chen Luohan and Zhang Keqing, after all, they are teammates who have been through thick and thin together.
In short, Zhang Keqing's injury was entirely blamed on the weak Qiao Yanrou.
That night, at dinner time at the base, the atmosphere at the table was heavy.
Except for Chen Luohan, Ji Yuanchen and Bai Xiaoyan, other psychics began to isolate Qiao Yanrou, and many even rolled their eyes at her, thinking that she was a drag and almost caused Zhang Keqing to lose her life.
After dinner, Qiao Yanrou went to the kitchen to help. Sister Lan sighed at her and walked out of the kitchen.
Hearing Sister Lan's sigh, she did not stop washing the dishes. There was no disappointment or sadness on her pretty face. Qiao Yanrou knew very well that in this cruel doomsday, weakness was the original sin. She did not want to defend herself, and there was nothing to say. It would always be easy to find a pretext to accuse someone of a crime.
Bai Xiaoyan stood on Qiao Yanrou's side from beginning to end. After hearing many psychics gossiping about Qiao Yanrou, she became so angry that she started arguing with them in the lobby on the first floor.
"What does Yanrou have to do with it? Zhang Keqing was injured by a high-level zombie. How can this be blamed on Yanrou?"
A female psychic confronted her: "How can it not be her business? If Qiao Yanrou wasn't jealous, would Brother Chen transfer Keqing to another team? If Brother Chen hadn't considered Qiao Yanrou's feelings, something like this wouldn't have happened today."
Bai Xiaoyan was stunned. "Why don't you blame Pangu for creating the world? Brother Chen and Yanrou are already boyfriend and girlfriend. Isn't it Zhang Keqing's fault for clinging to Brother Chen like that?"
"So what if we're boyfriend or girlfriend? It's the end of the world, who cares if you're boyfriend or girlfriend or not?"
"If you don't have the ability, you shouldn't care so much."
Shen Luohan, who had been silent the whole time, interrupted their quarrel with a cold voice: "That's enough. If you have any objections and don't want to stay in the base, you can leave at any time."
As soon as Shen Luohan's words came out, no one dared to say a word.
He then warned: "This matter has nothing to do with Yanrou. Don't let me hear similar remarks again."
After saying that, he stood up with a calm and handsome face, strode into the kitchen, took Qiao Yanrou, who was busy alone in there, took her hand, and took her upstairs in full view of everyone.
Seeing this, the psychics standing on Zhang Keqing's side were almost furious. Why did Brother Chen seem to be drugged by Qiao Yanrou?
Bai Xiaoyan crossed her arms proudly: "Did you hear that? If I hear you say that about Yanrou again, I will complain to Brother Chen."
The psychic who had just spoken for Zhang Keqing was so angry at her arrogant look that he dared not say anything else.
On the second floor, Shen Luohan held Qiao Yanrou in his arms and comforted her softly: "Ignore them."
Qiao Yanrou shook her head gently: "I'm fine."
"Don't feel any psychological burden. Zhang Keqing's injury was an accident."
She hummed "hmm" and leaned in his arms, not knowing what she was thinking about.
The two of them snuggled in silence for a long time before there was a knock on the door.
In a few seconds, Shen Luohan opened the door and Qiao Yanrou was sitting on the sofa. She recognized that the person standing outside was the man who came back today holding Zhang Keqing.
Qiu Te saw Qiao Yanrou inside and hesitated to speak, wanting Shen Luohan to go to the side and talk.
Shen Luohan turned around and said to Qiao Yanrou: "I have something to talk to him about. I will be back soon."
Qiao Yanrou nodded at him, and then the door was closed, but for some reason, she could still hear the conversation between Shen Luohan and Qiu Te...
In a corner of the aisle, Qiu Te advised him to go see Zhang Keqing.
"Keqing has always been thinking about you. Even when she didn't know whether she was alive or dead, she was still talking about you. Brother Chen, don't be so cruel to her."
Qiao Yanrou heard Shen Luohan was silent for a while, and then he said: "What do you want me to do?"
"At least... at least while Keqing is recovering, go visit her more often and talk to her." Qiu Te was almost begging Shen Luohan.
"I'll go see it when I have time." Shen Luohan still didn't give in.
“Brother Chen, go see her now. Keqing has been crying out to see you. Don’t make her so sad anymore.”
Almost half a minute later, Qiao Yanrou heard Shen Luohan say, "Let's go."
Immediately afterwards, there was a knock on the door of the suite. Before Qiao Yanrou could open the door, Chen Luohan opened it from the outside using his supernatural powers.
"I'll be back soon." He said to Qiao Yanrou.
Qiao Yanrou didn't ask where he was going: "Okay."
The door was closed, and she was the only one left in the entire corridor and room on the second floor, sitting on the sofa.
In a room on the third floor, many people with special abilities gathered around the bed. Until Qiu Te and Shen Luohan behind him walked in, the others tactfully left.
Zhang Keqing was still in a coma due to excessive blood loss.
"Keqing, Brother Chen is here to see you." Qiu Te whispered in her ear.
Zhang Keqing slowly opened her eyes and saw that it was really Chen Luohan. She looked at him with tears in her eyes and called him weakly, "Brother Chen."
"Have a good rest." Shen Luohan seemed to have nothing more to say to her.
Zhang Keqing looked at him and cried without saying a word. Qiu Te felt distressed again.
He pleaded for Zhang Keqing: "Boss Shen..."
Seeing this, Shen Luohan slowed down his tone and said, "Just tell Qiu Te what you want to eat." After saying that, he was about to leave.
Zhang Keqing was anxious. Regardless of the internal injuries in her body, she rushed forward and grabbed the corner of Shen Luohan's clothes tightly, while looking at him with tears in her eyes.
Shen Luohan glanced at the corner of his clothes that she was holding, met her eyes, and finally sat down. While talking to her, he used a fruit knife to peel an apple for her.
Qiu Te also took the opportunity to leave, leaving only the two of them in the room.
Zhang Keqing smiled happily, her eyes full of Shen Luohan in front of her.
Outside the door, Qiao Yanrou looked at the man and woman inside, and chose not to disturb them, so she left from the third floor.
As soon as I went down to the second floor, under the dim light, I saw a tall figure leaning at the door of the suite.
Qiao Yanrou was a little dazed and absent-minded. When she was about to reach the door of the suite, she found someone standing outside.
She stopped and saw who the person was through the dim light. She subconsciously took a step back, fearing that the other party would blame her for what happened today and would secretly get rid of her.
Ji Yuanchen noticed the small step she took back.
"I'm sorry, I shouldn't have let you hear the conversation between Luo Han and Qiu Te. I thought..." He didn't say anything else.
Qiao Yanrou knew why she could hear the voices of Chen Luohan and Qiu Te. It turned out that Ji Yuanchen used his supernatural powers.
"I don't blame you."
"Well, don't take what those people downstairs said to heart. They were unreasonable. This matter is not your fault in any way."
She looked lost, and Ji Yuanchen suppressed the urge to hold her in his arms to comfort her.
Qiao Yanrou nodded: "I know, it's getting late, you should go to bed early too."
Ji Yuanchen made way for the door.
"Good night," he said.
The door was closed and Qiao Yanrou sat on the sofa in a daze. After a long time, she took a shower, lay on the bed, and fell asleep in a daze.
She was sleeping so soundly that she didn't even know when Shen Luohan came back.
The next day, he went out early. When Qiao Yanrou went downstairs to help, she heard Bai Xiaoyan complain a few words.
"Early in the morning, Brother Chen had to go upstairs to see her..." Just as he was about to say that Brother Chen really went to see Zhang Keqing, he saw Qiao Yanrou walking over.
Bai Xiaoyan shut up immediately. This matter was different from the previous one. Brother Chen really went to see Zhang Keqing, and she didn't want to see Yanrou sad.
In fact, Qiao Yanrou had already heard it, and guessed that before Shen Luohan went out, he went upstairs to see Zhang Keqing.
