Chapter 156 Choice



Before going to bed, Shen Yanming and Bi Qiaoan went into the space to wash up. When Bi Qiaoan stood in front of the vanity mirror, she realized that the hickeys on her neck and collarbone were so obvious.

Bi Qiaoan's cheeks instantly turned bright red. No wonder Shen Yanming had stopped her from looking in the mirror this morning, no wonder their entrance into the office caused a burst of laughter, and no wonder Yu Shui and Shen Yanming's conversation was so ambiguous!

Bi Qiaoan angrily punched the man behind her, but Shen Yanming was very pleased and directly hugged Bi Qiaoan and kissed her passionately.

Bi Qiaoan was so angry that she wanted to wipe it off with the energy rain, but Shen Yanming stopped her, saying that it was a mark of love.

Uh, what a show-off man...

The next day, when Shen Yanming and Bi Qiaoan went to work, they discovered that the Qinghe Alliance had launched a poll on Weibo.

"During the global rainy season, only the Qinghua Kingdom Research Institute discovered the secret of energy rain. Therefore, only a small amount of energy rainwater was collected by the citizens of Qinghua Kingdom worldwide."

However, those infected with Unknown One are spread all over the world, with the number of patients estimated to be as high as 30 million.

Since the Qinghe Alliance announced the news of the unknown first healer, the Qinghe Alliance has received calls for help from more than 70 countries around the world. However, the Qinghe Alliance does not have enough energy rainwater to make the special medicine.

Therefore, the Qinghe Alliance is now launching this poll, inviting all citizens to fully express their opinions and suggestions. Your choice will serve as the basis for our next actions.

Shen Yanming clicked on the voting link and found that Qinghe Alliance had already provided general options.

"Would you be willing to use your stored energy rainwater to treat the unknown first infected person abroad?"

A. Willing (unpaid)

B. Willing (for payment)

C. Unwilling

D. Other (Please fill in your thoughts)

After filling in his own identity information, Shen Yanming checked option B, and then helped Bi Qiaoan check option B as well. After that, he turned off his phone and started his day's work.

In late April, when it was already quite hot, Shen Yanming and Bi Qiaoan decided to go for a walk in the park after work.

Throughout the journey, Bi Qiaoan kept frowning. Shen Yanming raised his hand and gently smoothed out the wrinkles between Bi Qiaoan's brows. "What's wrong?"

"The air doesn't smell good," Bi Qiaoan pouted. "It seems a little smelly, but I don't know if there's something wrong with my sense of smell..."

Shen Yanming also subconsciously sniffed the air. "It really is. The air quality is much worse than last year. It seems that the hot weather has caused the excrement in the dry toilets to ferment, producing quite a lot of ammonia!"

Bi Qiaoan said unhappily, "It's bearable now, but if it goes on for a while, it'll be so smelly we won't be able to go out. What will we do then? Wear masks?"

“We don’t smell it at home or in the office. We drive to and from get off work, so as long as we don’t go out for walks, there shouldn’t be a big problem.”

Shen Yanming put his arm around Bi Qiaoan's shoulder and went back to drive. "Let's use up this month's quota while we're out today. I'll come alone next month, so you don't need to come out."

"No, I'll stay with you. I can endure it." Bi Qiaoan held Shen Yanming's hand, her voice sweet and soft, almost like she was pleading.

Shen Yanming smiled and did not refute, but he did not believe that Bi Qiaoan would go shopping with him next month. After all, he had spoiled the girl over the past year or two.

Not far away, Bi Qiaoan saw a dry toilet. "Even though it's closed, it still smells so bad. Hasn't Qinghe Alliance sent anyone to deal with it?"

"It's probably reserved specifically for composting. After all, the raw materials are readily available, and since everyone is still farming, the demand for fertilizer will only increase. As for chemical fertilizers, we should save as much as possible!"

Bi Qiaoan's eyes widened. "Then, do we fertilize the fields too?"

Seeing Bi Qiaoan's resistant expression, Shen Yanming laughed, "We don't need it. Don't be fooled by the number of dry toilets now; when fertilizer is really needed, there might not even be enough to go around. Let's be kind and give this opportunity to someone else."

Hearing this, Bi Qiaoan finally felt relieved.

The two drove quickly to Times Square, strolled around, bought all the daily necessities, rice, flour, and cooking oil they were entitled to, and also bought some unlimited coffee and tea.

The two didn't emerge from Times Square until the moon was high in the west.

Bi Qiaoan slumped in the passenger seat, touching the aromatherapy ball at her waist, and said to Shen Yanming, "Honey, there are so many mosquitoes and flies now. When are we going to give the aromatherapy recipe to Zhang Chenjun?"

"Let's wait a bit longer, I haven't figured out how to give it to her yet."

Shen Yanming wasn't embarrassed at all about not having a solution, since they didn't usually interact.

Moreover, that person is usually accompanied by someone. Although he had never seen him, Qiu Man would never let Zhang Chenjun act alone.

In the evening, Shen Yanming and Bi Qiaoan were both tired, so they took out steamed buns filled with shiitake mushrooms and bok choy, as well as a soup made with white fungus and lotus seeds from their spatial storage. After eating, they lay on the sofa and watched TV.

A female reporter from Qinghe TV was on the scene again, reporting on today's voting event.

In just a few hours, more than seven million netizens participated in the poll, with 91% saying they would not lend a helping hand and 7% saying they would be willing to provide energy rain for a fee.

The remaining 2% means that foreign research institutes can work harder; who knows, they might be able to find a substitute for energy rain.

Besides, the patients infected with the unknown strain 1 are not in mortal danger. Although they are suffering, their lives are not in danger. If it really comes to it, let them just endure it...

Shen Yanming couldn't help but laugh as he looked at the various opinions from netizens. "The best comedians have always come from the common people!"

What Bi Qiaoan was thinking about was what to exchange the energy rainwater for. If it was to be used by infected people abroad, it should at least be exchanged for something valuable!

Trade it for gems, gold, or coal? You can't exactly trade it for food...

Actually, exchanging grains would be the most suitable option, but the key problem is that they don't have that abroad!

Well, this isn't something Bi Qiaoan should worry about.

After a series of strange thoughts swirled in my mind, the news broadcast ended.

Shen Yanming took a bunch of medicines from the coffee table drawer and put them in Bi Qiaoan's palm. Bi Qiaoan pursed her lips and swallowed them in a few bites.

This time, I still didn't get the chocolate, but I got another hot and sweet kiss.

"Although I can't take my medicine with you, I can taste the bitterness with you. Darling, am I good to you?"

Bi Qiaoan grabbed Shen Yanming's cheek and said, "Only an old rogue like you could make taking advantage sound so respectable!"

Shen Yanming smiled slyly, not caring at all. Bi Qiaoan found it a bit irritating and slipped into the space.

A dozen minutes later, Bi Qiaoan came out carrying two flowerpots, one of freesia and one of lily of the valley.

Bi Qiaoan brought the freesia to Shen Yanming's nose and said proudly, "Smells good, doesn't it? It smells like peach!"
