Chapter 82 Yes, it’s hot water!
"She prescribed this combination of medicine for me so that I could get better grades and spend more time on studying."
Zong Qiong leaned against the back of his chair, feeling extremely tired.
"But now without these medicines, I feel like my body has reached its limit, so can you go to the hospital pharmacy and get some medicine for me?"
Jiang Changyi answered decisively: "Impossible."
Jiang Changyi didn't understand. "Why would any parent give their child medicine just to force them to improve their academic performance?"
Even though the family was so poor that they could barely afford to eat, Wu Wanqiu did not desperately ask Jiang Changyi to get good grades, pinning her hopes of changing the family's situation on his grades.
Not to mention using drugs to reduce children's sleep just to improve their learning efficiency.
Unexpectedly, after hearing Jiang Changyi's question, Zong Qiong actually asked him back: "Is this strange?"
"It's more than just strange. It's completely inhumane!" Jiang Changyi was a little angry. "How can they not even care about your health and feelings?"
Zong Qiong explained slowly, "This medicine doesn't have a significant impact on my health. It just affects my height a bit. But I'm already 1.8 meters tall, and I don't need that much height to attract the opposite sex."
Perhaps his parents' influence on him has penetrated deep into his bones, and he doesn't think there is anything wrong with this behavior at all.
“Besides, they eat it themselves.”
Well, Jiang Changyi was completely speechless now.
There is an old saying that is really true: if the upper beam is crooked, the lower beams will be crooked too. Even though his parents are like this, Zong Qiong is still not crazy, which actually shows that he is very strong.
"Hmph, pathetic mortal." Obatias snorted beside him, but no emotion could be heard in his voice.
But he probably felt pity. After all, he didn't have any emotions now. He had asked for Jiang Changyi's emotional ability when they signed the contract, which was enough to show that he hoped to have emotions.
But once you have the seven emotions and six desires, aren't you just like an ordinary person?
So even though Obatias was yelling, he probably still felt pity for this ordinary person in his heart.
Jiang Changyi originally wanted Obatias to teach Zongqiong Rune Technology, but after seeing Zongqiong's current condition and learning about his past, Jiang Changyi decided not to do so.
"Don't bother. For the next three days, you must follow me and obey all my orders."
Zong Qiong: “?”
Are you rebelling?
However, this base is not a one-man show of Zong Qiong. Although he is the representative of the base in public, Jiang Changyi is actually the person in charge of the base in secret.
Of course, this base would have a harder time without any of the core figures.
Seeing Zong Qiong's reluctant expression, Jiang Changyi took out Obatias as a token: "Since you are unwilling, then I have no choice but to let Obatias go back. Sigh... I had to go to great lengths to persuade him to come."
Zong Qiong curled his lips and said helplessly, "Alright, whatever you want. I've really hit a bottleneck anyway, and I won't be able to come up with any results for a while."
"Okay, now you don't have to do anything about the base yourself."
Jiang Changyi knew that there were many famous survivors coming to the base recently, including many management talents and human resources from various industries, which greatly helped the operation and construction of the base.
"In that case, come back with me to the guesthouse and take a nap. Look at the dark circles under your eyes. If someone didn't know you, they would think you were imprisoned and tortured."
Zong Qiong: “…”
He wanted to refuse, but he really was too sleepy.
"Okay, whatever you want, I'll listen to you."
"But this is all for Obatias."
Zong Qiong's emphasis was meaningless. Jiang Changyi smiled and pulled him up: "Come on, take a nice hot bath. Even if it's the end of the world, we should still enjoy life!"
After leaving the office, Wei Lang was still sitting at the door diligently acting as a secretary. When he saw Zong Qiong being dragged out by Jiang Changyi, his eyes were full of curiosity.
"Brother Jiang, President Zong, what are you doing?"
"Oh, it's okay. I gave your president three days off. I'll take him out to enjoy life!"
“Eh…eh?”
Before Wei Lang could ask anything else in surprise, Zong Qiong was dragged away by Jiang Changyi with a helpless look on his face.
Before leaving, Zong Qiong left a reminder: "You don't need to come to me for incidents below level A. Handle them yourself."
Wei Lang's cute deer eyes widened even more——
“Eh? Eh?!!”
"Me?!"
Zong Qiong added from a distance: "It's not your mother, it's you!"
In short, Zong Qiong was dragged back to his room by Jiang Changyi - Zong Qiong's own room.
After opening the door, Jiang Changyi saw that the room was as clean as if no one had lived there. He couldn't help but sigh, "Look at you. Does this house really make any difference whether you're here or not?"
I reached out and touched the bed sheet, and it was covered in dust!
The contempt and shock in Jiang Changyi's eyes reached Zong Qiong.
Zong Qiong: "I don't often come back to live here, isn't this normal?"
"Well, you are really out of control. Can't you just give yourself a break?"
Jiang Changyi was helpless. This guy had been raised astray by his terrible parents. He wouldn't understand anything you said to him. He just thought he was normal.
Jiang Changyi took out a new set of bedding from the contract space, and a new inflatable bathtub and placed it in the bathroom. After filling it with water, he used the holy fire to boil it into warm water.
After doing all this, Jiang Changyi felt like an old mother who was worried sick.
But there is no way around it. Who would have thought that the wise leader of the base would be a fool who doesn't know how to take care of his body?
Even if we don't consider the fact that he worked so hard for the base, just because he looked like a perfect match for sapiosexuals, Jiang Changyi couldn't bear to let him die suddenly like this.
Obatias watched Jiang Changyi use the holy fire to boil the hot spring, and his contempt reached its peak: "You are using the holy fire of our martial arts masters to soak in the hot springs?"
"So what?" Jiang Changyi said calmly, "Technology serves life! Don't you understand?"
"Only technology that serves the people can be considered a good student of the people!"
"Our country is a people-oriented country."
Obatias was too lazy to listen to Jiang Changyi's chatter and just stood in the corner motionless, acting as an armor stand.
Zong Qiong asked in confusion, "Why do you have to use hot water? Can't I just wash it casually?"
"What do you know?" Jiang Changyi perked up again. "Is taking a bath just about cleaning the body? That's so meaningless. Taking a hot bath is about enjoying life and the process of bathing. That's the real meaning of using hot water!"
