Chapter 156 Ask Me How Much I Love You
"I've lost weight."
The moment he hugged Qiao Lan, Ye Qi immediately noticed her weight loss.
She had lost a little weight compared to more than ten days ago when the two of them confirmed their relationship.
It is still round and strong when held in my arms, but it is definitely not as strong as before.
"The food at the base is not good, I'm sorry that it has affected you." Ye Qi felt distressed.
Seeing her lose weight is as heartbreaking as seeing her injured.
At this moment, he put aside his worries about the future of the base and the speed of awakening.
Qiao Lan was secretly delighted.
"Are you really thinner?" she looked up and asked seriously.
"yes."
"That's great! I'm on a diet and losing weight! Isn't that amazing? Look how quickly I'm seeing results!"
Qiao Lan almost jumped up for cheers.
She has been recuperating at the base's medical center recently, staying in a single room. After all, the expanded medical center has a lot more rooms, so she doesn't have to share a room with others, and no one can see what she does in the room, such as eating alone or having snacks.
But she basically didn't give herself any big meals. The three meals a day plus one nutritious meal for patients were all of the base standard. She only took some extra nutritional supplements, vitamins, protein powders, etc. to assist in recovery, and she forced herself to suppress her desire for delicious food.
Why?
Because she is a girl.
Loving beauty is natural, and I pay more attention to my image after falling in love.
Being able to maintain a plump figure in the apocalypse is certainly a source of pride and glory, and it indicates a good quality of life, but she is still willing to trade glory for beauty.
With her fair and elastic skin, after losing weight, even if she really doesn't look good, it can cover up all the ugliness, right? Besides, her facial features are still good. Without the fat, she will at least be an average beauty, right?
Ye Qiqi is tall, handsome, talented and cool. How could she stand next to him because she is short and fat? People would think she is his assistant, not his girlfriend.
She still has a little vanity.
So I took advantage of the opportunity when I was injured and the energy I took in was used to repair the wound instead of storing fat, and started my weight loss plan.
I easily became thin by starving myself in my previous life. In this life, it shouldn’t be difficult to eat less and have a more standard figure, right?
"Quick, measure my waist again to see if I've lost weight too. Remember how you feel now. I'll be even thinner next time we meet."
She happily pushed Ye Qi's arm down, allowing him to feel her waistline.
She measured her waist yesterday and it was 112cm. She will try to reduce it to 100cm as soon as possible!
Ye Qi frowned.
"Why are you losing weight? You look great like this, not fat at all. Being able to eat is a blessing, so eat as much as you can. Nowadays, no one can get enough to eat, but you're filling your space with delicious food while trying to lose weight. You're really a person who doesn't know the hunger of a hungry person. Do you deserve your space?"
Like an old mother nagging her daughter.
"You are the one who truly doesn't know the hunger of a hungry man." Qiao Lan complained, "You skinny people are naturally beautiful, but we fat people have to rely on confidence and temperament to pretend to be beautiful. Do you understand how I feel?"
"Then I'll eat myself fat and keep you company." Ye Qi said decisively.
When Qiao Lan heard this, she quickly took off the large backpack that she had prepared long ago and stuffed it into his hand.
The bag was full of various vacuum-packed and canned foods to give him extra nutrition. Since he always wanted to share the joys and sorrows with the other members of the base and refused to have his own meals, she was still thinking about how to coax him to eat. Now she had an excuse.
"You said so yourself, so don't refuse these foods. Take them back and eat them as soon as possible. The more you eat, the more weight you will gain. If you run out of them, I will bring you more." She reminded.
Ye Qi hesitated for a moment and accepted it.
In order to be a fat man with his girlfriend, he gave up his principle of not doing anything special as the head of the base...
——I am not a qualified person in charge.
He silently condemned himself.
He decided to deduct a portion of his points for every item he ate from the bag. Although no one would be watching him, he couldn't let himself down. Eating something not provided by the base was a serious offense, so naturally, more points would be deducted, and he would also receive a serious demerit, which he would face punishment for later.
But I have made up my mind to gain weight with my girlfriend and become a couple. I won’t change my mind.
"I will definitely eat, so you must not go on a diet. You must ensure adequate nutrition intake and good health." After measuring Qiao Lan's waist with his arms, he let go of her and took a step back, staring at her seriously.
Next time they meet, he'll check his waistline.
"Uh... okay." Qiao Lan said reluctantly, "Don't you want me to be more beautiful?"
"In my eyes, you are already beautiful enough."
“…”
It was a lie, but Qiao Lan was quite happy to hear it.
"Listen, no dieting, your health is important." Ye Qi emphasized again.
Qiao Lan raised his hands in surrender: "Alright, alright, I got it~~"
Ye Qi was stunned by the coquettish tone. He was silent for a moment, unable to digest it for a moment.
Qiao Lan rolled her eyes.
Look, a fat person looks greasy like this, but if a petite beauty looks like this, wouldn’t it be more appropriate?
"Okay, don't see me off. I'm leaving now. You can go back and get busy. Get some rest and remember to have a snack." She said goodbye to Ye Qi in a bad mood.
"etc."
Ye Qi suddenly pulled out a small box from his pocket and handed it to Qiao Lan. "Here. I've never given you a gift before. This is the first time. There will be many more in the future."
Qiao Lan was delighted.
She snorted in a mock tsundere way, "Thank you then."
I took the box and opened it on the spot. There was another box inside. I opened it again and there was another one inside.
Eight floors were demolished.
Ye Qi secretly observed Qiao Lan's expression. This feeling of tearing it apart bit by bit but never being able to do it was really frustrating, and his anticipation was rising. This was Old Song's idea.
He said that among the thirty-six strategies of love, the second one is to give gifts, give gifts continuously, give lots of gifts, and continue to express your feelings.
He even patted his chest and guaranteed that girls would definitely like to receive love gifts.
Moreover, if you spend a little time on the design of the gift, you can get twice the result with half the effort, and girls will be more excited.
Is there? Ye Qi's heart was beating fast after the actual battle, but Qiao Lan's expression did not seem to be getting more and more excited.
Do you seem to be getting more and more irritable?
He suddenly remembered that Lan Lan seemed to have manic tendencies.
——This method is not suitable for Lanlan. Remember.
This failed experience was recorded in the little love notebook in my heart.
Qiao Lan finally opened the last layer of the gift box and got the first love gift wrapped in layers.
A gold bar.
The small paper label shows that it is 999 pure gold, guaranteed to be genuine, and it is a famous brand.
"It means love is stronger than gold." Ye Xiaoqi explained seriously.
Qiao Lan now wishes she were a person with great strength, so she can pinch the gold bar into a hammer and hit Ye Qi on the head a few times to wake him up. Is this how you give a gift? Is there anything romantic about this?
If you don’t experience it yourself, you will never know how wild straight men’s gifts can be.
She looked up at him.
He asked a little nervously, "Do you like it? I found it a while ago while searching for supplies outside. It's in the ruins of a gold shop counter..."
Gold and silver are useless now. They are not valuable things and can only be used as toys or decorations. I wonder if she likes them.
"I like it very much." Qiao Lan tried hard to open the corners of her mouth and smile for him.
She still collected the gold bars and put them into the space.
I couldn't bear to discourage Xiao Qiqi's seriousness and enthusiasm.
Well, I hope you can give me something more decent next time.
After returning, Qiao Lan first visited Boss Wen, who got out of bed and left the next day after being injured.
I couldn't help but complain to the boss about the gold bar incident.
Wen Jiaojiao laughed so hard that her body shook with laughter. She instructed the assistant beside her: "Yingzi, you have a good voice, sing a song."
Miss Sakurako sang with deep emotion in her clear and soft voice.
"You ask ~ how deep ~ I love you ~... My feelings are true, my love is true, the gold bar represents my heart -"
Amid the beautiful singing, raindrops finally fell from the gloomy sky.
The first winter rains arrived.
The raindrops carrying toxins poured down densely on every corner of the city.
The city's water supply had long been paralyzed. When the survivors could not find bottled water, they once fetched water from the rivers outside the city. Later, they soon discovered that the water was neither drinkable nor usable. It would cause fatal diarrhea, skin ulcers, etc.
The water shortage situation is becoming more and more serious.
It finally rained at this time.
In every corner of the city, many survivors jumped out from their hiding places with joy, welcoming the gift from God.
He tilted his head back and caught the water with his mouth, or with broken cups or cans, to relieve his thirst.
After a night of rain, the weather cleared up in the morning.
The cold morning light revealed the figures of many people who had died of poisoning lying on the ground, and they could never stand up again.
“Why don’t they listen to advice?”
The team that went out from the Bloody Dawn base to search for supplies and gain experience found people killed by the poisonous rain all over the city.
However, the base had already released the news to the outside world, warning survivors near and far to be wary of poisonous rain and snow and never to come into contact with them rashly.
When it rained, all the members of the base carefully hid in the rooms, and the teams on duty also took shelter in various temporary booths. Everyone knew to be obedient and careful, so no one was hurt.
The casualties in the city are truly heartbreaking.
