"So, these days you have to be low-key in everything you do," Shen Yanming said.
"Then you still dare to let them do this business?"
"Why wouldn't I dare? What I'm describing is just the worst-case scenario, it might not even happen. Besides, they can just fire and run, and not many people know them, so it's relatively safe."
After they've made two or three sales, I'll remind them to stop. If they withdraw in time, they'll only earn less. If they can't let go of this quick money, I won't care what the consequences are.
But if I reject them from the start, do you think they'll resent me?
Zhang Heping was somewhat frightened. "No, really?"
"Who knows? I've spent quite a bit of time with them and I don't think they would do it, but they still have friends, colleagues, and family around them."
Moreover, besides them, there are quite a few people in this community who know that I have something in my possession. Do you think anyone might have designs on it?
Peace, things are different now than before. No matter what, one must always be wary of others!
After listening, Zhang Heping nodded. "So they're not only earning food for themselves now, but also protecting you from the storm?"
"Yes, we each get what we need."
Upon hearing this, Zhang Heping couldn't help but feel fortunate. Fortunately, hospitals are special institutions with logistical support provided by the Qinghe Alliance, so he didn't need to worry too much. Otherwise, someone like him might have been eaten to pieces.
“The doctors and nurses in our unit have been in high demand lately, and it seems that this is one of the reasons!” Zhang Heping said.
This was something that Shen Yanming and Bi Qiaoan hadn't expected. They were silent for a moment, and then said, "Marrying a doctor or nurse not only means that someone will take care of you when you are sick and hospitalized in the future, but it also means that you can have an extra acre of land and save on the food for one person."
This business is absolutely brilliant; it's a sure thing!
"Hearing you two say that, I don't feel like I'm a hot commodity at all. On the contrary, I feel like a poor little thing about to fall into the tiger's mouth." Zhang Heping seemed to feel a chill and unconsciously rubbed his arms.
"Well, with your current reputation, it's highly unlikely that anyone would set their sights on you," Shen Yanming chuckled, covering his mouth.
"Damn it, Shen Yanming, I'll fight you to the death!"
Zhang Heping lost his temper again, but this time with Bi Qiaoan present, he dared not make a move and could only glare fiercely at someone.
Time quickly passed to past nine o'clock. Shen Yanming looked at the person who was still lounging on his sofa and refused to leave, kicked his leg, and said, "Aren't you going back? The power will be cut off soon!"
"The power outage is just right. I'm afraid of the dark and don't want to go back."
Shen Yanming didn't want to indulge his bad habit, so he dragged him by the arm and walked out.
But Zhang Heping was determined to stay at Shen Yanming's house today, using both his hands and feet, and refused to leave.
Finally, Bi Qiaoan couldn't stand it anymore and said, "You can only sleep on the sofa, and you're not allowed to move around at night and disturb us." Actually, she was afraid that someone was eavesdropping.
"Okay, okay, I promise!" Zhang Heping raised his right hand as if to swear an oath.
Seeing that his wife had agreed, Shen Yanming couldn't say anything more.
He could only follow Bi Qiaoan into the bedroom, then hugged her and said coquettishly, "Wife, how could you allow an outsider to stay here? What if he doesn't leave by tomorrow?"
"Then what do you suggest? Kick him out?"
Shen Yanming sighed. It wasn't impossible to kick them out, but the other party would definitely be heartbroken.
Since that's the case, let's stay here for now and talk about it tomorrow. However, having another person around really makes things inconvenient for them.
Seeing that Shen Yanming had agreed, Bi Qiaoan took a quilt from the cabinet and handed it to him, saying, "Give this to him!"
"No way. If we cover him with this blanket, what will become of us? I'll just go across the street and bring his blanket over."
"No need to make such a big deal out of it. We're only staying here for a day or two. Anyway, we've never used this blanket. We can just wash the cover when he's done with it."
"Alright then, I'll go get it for him."
After settling Zhang Heping in, Shen Yanming and Bi Qiaoan lay in bed, both unable to fall asleep.
"Don't you think he's particularly lonely? Every time he comes home for vacation, he's all alone. He must be very lonely and isolated, right?" Bi Qiaoan whispered in Shen Yanming's ear.
"Maybe so. I'm so busy at work, and other doctors keep me company in the dormitory after work. I guess I'm just bored during the holidays."
"What about Ji Kangyong? Doesn't he feel lonely at home all by himself? We haven't seen him come up to see us."
"His personality is such that he's not bored when he's alone, but he gets annoyed when there are too many people around."
"What if Zhang Heping and Ji Kangyong lived together...?"
"Stop it quickly, Old Ji definitely can't stand that chatterbox."
"Alright, then let's indulge our two good-natured troublemakers. Time for bed!"
Bi Qiaoan angrily closed her eyes, and Shen Yanming smiled helplessly and pulled her into his arms.
The two were speaking in hushed tones, and Zhang Heping, who was in the living room, was completely unaware of it.
At this moment, looking at the empty living room, he felt a sense of loneliness, but when he thought of his friend who was just a wall away from him, he smiled and closed his eyes to sleep!
The next day, Shen Yanming and Bi Qiaoan got up as soon as it was light.
Because they had guests at home, neither of them dared to take breakfast from their spatial storage, so they could only make do with the ingredients they had at home.
Even so, it's still much more substantial than the breakfasts of an average family.
Zhang Heping swallowed hard as he looked at the salted eggs, beef jerky, soy milk, and steamed buns filled with chives and eggs.
I don't know why, but even though it looks very ordinary, Shen Yanming's cooking has an enticing aroma.
The source of the fragrance was simple: Shen Yanming had secretly added a little spiritual spring water, and he didn't dare to add too much; the amount was just enough to slightly enhance the flavor.
Zhang Heping ate rather ravenously, while Shen Yanming and Bi Qiaoan were very polite. After the three of them finished breakfast, Shen Yanming had to go into the kitchen to prepare lunch for the day.
Ugh, this is so troublesome, I feel like punching someone!
Shen Yanming packed his and Qiao An's food into a lunchbox, then said to Zhang Heping, "There's lunch left for you in the pot. Are you staying at home or going back to your place?"
Zhang Heping craned his neck to take a look and asked, "Can I come to work with you two?"
"You finally get a holiday, aren't you going to rest for a couple of days? Aren't you tired?"
"I'm tired, but I'm so bored at home all by myself. There's no electricity, no heating, and I feel so pathetic."
Shen Yanming thought about it and felt that Zhang Heping was indeed a bit pitiful, so he nodded and said, "You can come along, but it's also very boring where we are, so don't regret it."
"No regrets, no regrets. If I can't stand it here anymore, I'll just come back on my own. I'm a grown man, I won't get lost!"
