Shi Zijin was slightly startled and couldn't help but look at her with his "Eye of Investigation", but he didn't see any signs of awakening.
So he nodded and said, "I will be careful."
Su Tao ran upstairs quickly, but stopped, turned around and ran back, shouting at him:
"I still prefer living heroes. Please protect yourself."
A sleepless night
Su Tao was woken up by a call from Teacher Sheng Yulan.
"Boss Su, did Lin Fangzhi take the day off today? Why isn't he here for class at almost eleven o'clock?"
Su Tao woke up instantly, got up and called Lin Fangzhi's name in the living room.
Jiang Yuyou appeared and said coldly:
"He hasn't been in the house since yesterday afternoon."
Su Tao was shocked and quickly called Qi Yunlan, asking her to check Lin Fangzhi's whereabouts.
It was later discovered that he had never left the house.
Su Tao frowned, hung up the phone and shouted into the air:
"Fang Zhi? I know you are in the space and can hear me. Come out soon, don't make me anxious."
No movement.
Su Tao looked around upstairs and downstairs again and found that his little quilt was missing. She immediately guessed that this sensitive child might have been stimulated by something.
Because in the beginning he hugged his tattered quilt every day because he felt insecure, but later he gradually stopped relying on the sense of security that the quilt gave him.
Sometimes he would even drop it on the ground without taking it seriously.
"Fang Zhi, can you please come out first? We can talk about what's going on. You've been making me so worried that I can't even think about going to work. So, if you come out, I'll allow you to skip classes for the next three days. I'll take you wherever I go, okay?"
After coaxing him for about ten minutes, Lin Fangzhi came out holding his quilt.
Su Tao breathed a sigh of relief and ran over to touch his face and back:
"What's wrong? Did someone upset you? Or did I do something wrong?"
When Lin Fangzhi saw the concern in her eyes and her gentle words, he suddenly felt relieved and not so uncomfortable anymore.
He suddenly felt that Su Tao was like a rib in his body, supporting his entire life. She was indispensable and extremely important.
He tried hard to organize his words and asked what he wanted to know most:
"Am I important?"
"Of course."
In Su Tao's eyes, Fang Zhi is her family, so of course he is important.
Lin Fangzhi knew that he was almost alive, so he asked again, "What about Jiang?"
"Jiang? Jiang Yu?"
Jiang Yu, who was named, immediately disappeared into the shadows, reducing his presence to a minimum.
"Yeah." The deer eyes looked at Su Tao expectantly.
Su Tao understood instantly and held her forehead:
"Fang Zhi, Brother Jiang Yu is our good partner and very important. He has just arrived in an unfamiliar environment, just like you when you first arrived. He needs someone to take care of him and help him get familiar with everything quickly. You are a kind and good child, you will understand, right?"
Lin Fangzhi was conflicted.
He felt that Taozi was right, but he still felt awkward and uneasy.
Su Tao touched his head:
"Brother Jiang Yu is only staying here temporarily. He will move next door to us in a few days, so during this time you should help him understand and integrate into this place as quickly as possible, okay?"
When Lin Fangzhi heard that they were not going to live together, the last bit of his gloom disappeared and he nodded vigorously:
"Okay, I won't have class today. I'll follow you."
Su Tao breathed a sigh of relief and let him do as he pleased.
But he still took Lin Fangzhi to find Sheng Yulan and asked him to apologize to the teacher and ask for leave for the next two days.
Lin Fangzhi also felt that he was wrong and apologized obediently.
Sheng Yulan quickly waved her hands: "No, no, I'm just worried if he's okay."
Su Tao said: "There still have to be rules. He was wrong for not asking for leave and causing the teachers and parents to worry."
Lin Fangzhi lowered his head and made circles on his toes.
At this moment, Sheng Yuqing suddenly ran over, rushed directly in front of Su Tao, and asked stubbornly:
"Why didn't Boss Su choose me? I'm not afraid of death or hardship."
The person involved, Jiang Yu, disappeared again immediately.
Su Tao sighed, pushed her to sit on the chair, and asked:
"Do you think your family is doing well now?"
Sheng Yuqing was stunned for a moment and nodded.
I live a pretty good life. Although I only have a one-bedroom house, it is sheltered from the wind and rain, safe, and well-fed. Most importantly, there are no bad people around.
Su Tao asked again: "Who do you think gave you such a good life?"
Sheng Yuqing was stunned by the question: "It's you."
Su Tao retorted: "You are wrong. It is Dongyang, the pioneers and city defense troops on the front line. Have you ever thought about what will happen to Taoyang if Dongyang is conquered?"
"Taoyang's tenants will lose their jobs en masse and be separated from their friends and family in Dongyang. Taoyang will also be cut off from its funding chain and unable to maintain normal operations. Its fall is inevitable."
It's quite scary when you think about it.
Taoyang tenants are unemployed and unable to pay rent or make any purchases in Taoyang.
Without income, she can't build and pay her employees.
By then, even if the zombies cannot attack, Taoyang will be drained away bit by bit.
Sheng Yuqing was stunned. She had never thought about this question before.
Su Tao softened her tone:
"Yu Qing, not only Dongyang needs you, Taoyang needs you too. With you, we have an extra layer of protection from being attacked."
It is as prosperous as a sudden enlightenment.
In fact, she stayed in Taoyang not for the purpose of enjoying herself, but always regarded Taoyang as the salvation of her family. She thought that by protecting Su Tao, she could protect the happiness that her family had worked so hard to obtain.
It turned out that she thought too simply.
"I understand. Thank you, Boss Su."
As soon as he finished speaking, he ran away in a hurry.
Seeing her sister so impetuous, Sheng Yulan apologized to Su Tao:
"She's had this personality since she was young, unstable and stubborn."
Su Tao smiled: "She will be a very outstanding person in the future."
Anyone who chooses to defend his country is excellent.
Shi Zijin was unable to leave that day.
The old leader thought about it all night and felt that the pioneer army must be expanded to prepare for emergencies, so he asked Shi Zijin and others to stay for two more days to select talents.
Xing Hongwen leaned on a cane and coughed several times.
Xing Shuyu, Shi Zijin and others were a little worried. The old leader's health was really getting worse.
Xing Hongwen waved his hand. "It's nothing. I just didn't sleep well last night after receiving the news. Chang Jing really did a lot of harm this time. Ahem. You guys go pick the people. Most of them are from Dongyang, a small number are recently taken in survivors, and there are some good people with special abilities as well."
Cen Tianjiao looked through the list together, and when he saw a photo of a beautiful woman, he showed it to Shi Zijin with a playful smile:
"Boss, look at the beauty, or the psychic, eh? Or the old station."
The name column clearly reads: Lian Sha
