After finally "escaping" from the town, Ye Zhou still felt a little dizzy when he returned to the supermarket.
He doesn't like occasions where he's in the spotlight. If the people watching him don't say anything, he can still remain calm. But if they start to make a fuss, Ye Zhou will be helpless.
So before that he always had to perform some "miracles" to calm the locals down first.
"Sarah sent it over?" Chen Shu asked Ye Zhou, "Where are we going now?"
Ye Zhou: "Let's go pick up Zou Ming first, and then go back to Daliang Dynasty. Wu Yan and his family of three have to go back. We can't let the child never grow up."
It is not easy to take care of a baby. Sometimes Ye Zhou feels tired just watching him. The child is too young and needs adults to take care of his eating, drinking, defecating and urinating. Even the most well-behaved baby will always cry at night. Although the dormitory has good sound insulation, it will not disturb others but will always disturb Wu Yan and his wife.
He is not as ruthless as Ye Baopi, who insists that his employees continue to work for him.
"Let me check the time." Ye Zhou sat in the office and set the time on the computer. "Set it to ten years after we leave 276?"
Chen Shu: "About the same time, probably around that time."
Ye Zhou felt it was a bit magical: "We just left and we have to go back again."
Chen Shu joked: "Because of Zou Ming——"
She spoke in a strange and drawn-out voice, but Ye Zhou was not angry at all. He looked at Chen Shu and said calmly, "If it were you, I would go too."
Chen Shu said "Hey", obviously not believing it.
Ye Zhou lowered his head slightly, his ears were already red.
Strangely enough, when he faced Zou Ming, who was not yet an adult, he had no other thoughts at all - he did not regard the other party as an equal at all.
He looked down at the boy from above and felt only pity and amiability for him, but absolutely no love.
This may be "partiality". They are obviously the same person, but if he is attracted to Xiao Zou Ming, he is really not a human being and he would despise himself.
"Let's go." Ye Zhou coughed lightly and pressed the button.
The second dimension jump in a short period of time was also a novel experience for the employees.
Cao'er and Zhou Yuanhe sat in the rest area, watching the scenery outside the window change rapidly. Zhou Yuanhe sat on the sofa with his chin hanging down, looking boneless. He sighed, "Oh, I have to be busy again."
Cao Er asked curiously, "How do you know that we have to be busy? Can you predict the future?!"
Although he has experienced so many dimensions, Cao'er still remains superstitious.
Zhou Yuanhe: "You can guess it. Zou Ming didn't feel guilty at all when he exploited me."
He sighed again.
Cao'er: "You are saving people! This is a good deed."
Zhou Yuanhe knew that he couldn't communicate with Cao'er, so he shook his head and sighed.
After he let out this sigh, the supermarket landed smoothly and the scenery outside the window also froze.
But this time, no one was curious about the scenery here. It was really no different from before they left - there was still yellow sand everywhere, and the air seemed to be twisted and burning.
Ye Zhou first arranged the dormitory before preparing the car to go to base 276.
"Zou Ming should be the boss at this time, right?" Chen Shu stood at the door. It took him more than five years to adapt to the environment here. Now that he came here again, he no longer felt how strong the temperature and sunlight were.
Ye Zhou got the car out: "Do you want me to drive or do you want me to drive?"
Chen Shu: "I'll drive, I haven't driven for a long time."
While the two were talking, Zhou Yuanhe had already opened the door and got into the car. When Ye Zhou got in, he said to him, "If you really don't want to treat patients, just rest in the supermarket."
Zhou Yuanhe looked so depressed that Ye Zhou was worried that the patients would think they had a terminal illness when they saw him.
Zhou Yuanhe shook his head: "Boss, you don't know... Hey! You should take care of him in the future!"
Ye Zhou smiled and said nothing - now even Zhou Yuanhe started to tease him!
Is he being very obvious?!
In addition to the employees of Daliang Dynasty, Zhou Yuanhe and others are certain that when he and Zou Ming meet this time, their relationship will definitely change.
Ye Zhou was a little nervous, a little excited, and a little shy.
When Zou Ming was by his side before, he never felt anything was wrong, but as time went by, he felt that it was natural for Zou Ming to be by his side, so much so that when he thought about it now, Ye Zhou felt that he had fallen into Zou Ming's trap.
He is obviously the frog in the warm water.
But Ye Zhou was not angry. He knew that Zou Ming had spent a lot of effort on him, even though Zou Ming never said it.
They have known each other for so long, but Zou Ming has never revealed the truth that they have known each other for a long time. If it were Ye Zhou, he would have suffocated to death long ago.
"We're almost there." After driving for nearly an hour, Ye Zhou and his friends finally saw the base.
"Has the base become bigger?" Zhou Yuanhe asked with narrowed eyes.
Ye Zhou held the telescope and leaned out of the window. After looking for a while, he said, "It has expanded."
"The tallest building seems to be abandoned as well." Ye Zhou, "The glass on the top floor is gone."
Chen Shu was not surprised at all: "That top floor is totally uninhabitable. The air conditioner is turned to the lowest temperature, which is only slightly better than not turning it on. Only Zhao Qing likes to stay there. I doubt he can feel the cold or heat."
The RV stopped at the gate of the base.
There were people guarding the door, and they looked quite relaxed. There was a table where the crowd gathered, and they seemed to be playing cards.
It’s just that the cards have been used for so long that it’s almost hard to tell what they originally were.
"Who are you? Where are you from?" the gatekeeper called out to them.
The gatekeepers were all very young, looking less than twenty years old. They were all children ten years ago. They either had never seen Ye Zhou and his friends, or had seen them but had long forgotten them.
They looked at the group of three people, and the one with fair skin was obviously the leader.
"Which base are you from?" The gatekeeper pointed his gun at Ye Zhou and said in a tough tone, "If you don't tell me clearly, none of you can go in."
"If you force your way in, you'll be killed!"
Ye Zhou also looked serious: "I'm here to discuss business with your boss. My name is Ye Zhou, you can go ask him."
Several gatekeepers looked at each other, and the one who was pointing his gun at Ye Zhou suddenly put it away. Before Ye Zhou could react, he suddenly slapped himself hard with such force that his face was red and swollen when he took his hand away.
"I, I, I was wrong!" The gatekeeper holding the gun slapped himself and was about to kneel down to Ye Zhou.
Fortunately, Ye Zhou was quick-witted and grabbed his arm as he lunged forward.
Ye Zhou also guessed the reason for the other party's actions. He comforted him, "You are also doing this for the safety of the base. I won't tell Zou Ming anything that shouldn't be said."
The gatekeeper finally breathed a sigh of relief, but was afraid that Ye Zhou was trying to coax him, so he decided to kneel down firmly first.
Ye Zhou could only look at Chen Shu.
Chen Shu walked over, grabbed the gatekeeper by the collar, and lifted him up, saying rudely, "Where is Zou Ming? Lead the way."
The gatekeeper glanced at his companions, and they all nodded at him, thinking that this "good" job belonged to him.
The gatekeeper could only pull himself together and walked inside with Ye Zhou and the other two in tears.
"The slums have really changed." Ye Zhou sighed with relief as he looked at the former slums.
The slums have been demolished, and the tin houses that made people feel like they were in a steamer have been turned into fields. Special glass houses are used to adjust the sunlight, and the improved land is full of crops. Because there are no four seasons here, as long as the fertility can keep up, sowing and harvesting can be done continuously throughout the year.
Not only potatoes and sweet potatoes were planted, Ye Zhou also saw corn fields and wheat fields.
Some people are watering and some are harvesting.
This is all that 276, a medium-sized base, can do now. These fields and crops can ensure that the residents here can at least survive and not starve to the point of selling themselves or their children.
Walking in, the former inner city has been expanded and the residents have moved into concrete houses. Ye Zhou can see ropes and wooden stakes for drying clothes on the roadside. The residents, wearing old clothes without patches or holes, are busy making a living.
Some people were setting up stalls, some were doing food processing. Although they were all simple handicrafts and grinding corn into powder, at least they were real jobs.
"Zou Ming actually has the ability to manage a base." Chen Shu said, "Tsk, I thought he was also a fighting and killing type."
Ye Zhou: "How is that possible? You don't know him well enough."
Zou Ming is very smart. He knows that if he wants to secure his position as the boss of the base, he must be different from Zhao Qing. If he follows the same path as Zhao Qing, regardless of whether he can do better than Zhao Qing, one thing is certain: the residents of the base will question him, and even want to rebel against him because of his leadership.
So Zou Ming could only rely on his fists and violence to defeat all forces.
Only after he has shown his iron-blooded approach will people be willing to listen to him and obey him.
Chen Shu thought about it and felt that she really didn't understand Zou Ming. She and Zou Ming had known each other for many years, but they were not close friends.
So she said, "I don't think he needs me to understand him."
"For him, it should be enough for there to be one person in this world who understands him."
Ye Zhou coughed lightly and pretended not to hear.
The gatekeeper walking in front wished he could plug his ears.
"We're here." The gatekeeper stood at the door of the house, wishing he could crawl into the crack in the ground and disappear on the spot in front of everyone.
Ye Zhou looked at the security door in front of him that already showed signs of time, and shifted his gaze away without leaving a trace.
After so many years, Zou Ming still lives here.
If it weren't for the marks on the door, Ye Zhou would even have the illusion that he was still in Zou Ming's youth.
Ye Zhou raised his hand, and just as he was about to knock on the door——
The door opened.
Maybe for Zou Ming, they had only been separated for a short time, but for Ye Zhou, they had actually been separated for more than five years.
Looking at that familiar face, many images suddenly flooded into Ye Zhou's mind, but he just smiled: "Long time no see."
The person on the other end did not reply.
The tall young man opened his arms and hugged the person he loved most in his life.
He bent down slightly, not as if he was hugging someone, but as if he wanted to embed the person into his body and make him a part of him.
