Zhou Pin returned a little while later.
"Has someone been here just now?"
"Two petty thieves, all talk and no action, they might come back tomorrow."
"Why isn't it being resolved?"
"Leave it to Shuke and Beta."
"Shuke is acting strangely."
"The two thieves want to eat dog meat hot pot."
Zhou Pin: ...
"Has the job been resolved?"
"Yes, the Ministry of Science and Technology."
When do you start work?
"Tomorrow. If you need my help tomorrow, we can change it to the day after tomorrow."
"No need, I can manage."
"I'll tidy up the yard this afternoon, because I won't have as much free time once I go to work."
"Okay, you go to work and I'll stay home and grow vegetables."
After lunch, Zhou Pin voluntarily washed the dishes, while Xu Lin petted the dog.
Shuke and Beta came out of the room where the temperature was comfortable, but the high temperature outside caused them to shed a lot of fur. Xu Lin felt that the room was full of their fur, so she combed them every day. The dogs' backs were almost bald.
After Zhou Pin finished washing the dishes, he took his tools to the yard, and Shuke and Beta quickly followed. If they didn't run, they would be stripped bare.
Xu Lin's plan for the yard is to build a garage, tool shed, and storage room on the right side, and leave the open space on the left side for the dogs to play in, where a swing can also be installed, and to grow vegetables behind the house.
The garage, tool shed, and storage room can only be built when Zhou Pin takes a vacation. There's no rush to use the place where the dogs play, so Zhou Pin is digging up the land Xu Lin wants to plant in the backyard. The two dogs are busy digging a hole in front of him and then stomping on the soil behind him.
Zhou Pin wouldn't let Xu Lin turn the soil, so bored, she could only drink milk tea and enjoy the scenery on the second-floor terrace, looking serene and content. If it weren't for the apocalypse, it would be perfect.
Then Xu Lin saw a pool party being held at the villa across the street. Perhaps because the water temperature was too high, no one wanted to be crowded, and bikini-clad beauties were lounging on beach chairs enjoying the sun.
"Ugh~ This evil capitalism!"
Zhou Pin left before 6 a.m. the next morning, riding his beloved little motorcycle.
Because of the hot weather, the working hours for the base's "civil servants" are from 6 a.m. to 10 a.m. and from 3 p.m. to 6 p.m. They can eat and rest at the unit or go home in between.
Most people choose to stay at the office during lunch break, partly because meals are provided, and partly because the office has air conditioning, which is quite comfortable.
For someone like Zhou Pin who has a family, he definitely needs to go home at noon. Who could refuse to spend some time with his girlfriend?
When Xu Lin got up, Zhou Pin had already left, leaving behind porridge and salted duck eggs on the table, along with a note.
"Linlin, I'm going to work. Don't forget to eat breakfast. I'll be back to cook lunch."
Those few simple words warmed Xu Lin's heart.
"Oh no, my period has started!" Xu Lin immediately jumped up and ran to the bathroom.
As Xu Lin dealt with the situation, she thought: The apocalypse is so unfriendly to women. What will happen when all the sanitary napkins I've stockpiled are used up? So many women will have to expose their privacy to others.
It's hot, and women on their periods are not to be trifled with, so the two petty thieves were dealt with by Shuke and Beta by Xu Lin as soon as they showed up yesterday.
The surveillance footage showed that the despicable Shuke had torn the pants of the two men, who ran back clutching their buttocks, their attempt thwarted.
After eating the lovingly prepared breakfast, Xu Lin felt better and, fully bundled up, went to work in the backyard.
Perhaps due to security concerns, the villas were all built with walls when they were handed over. Many wealthy people replaced the walls with fences for aesthetic reasons, but Xu Lin disliked iron fences, as they offered no sense of security or privacy. Therefore, the walls suited her perfectly.
