"Huh?" Lin Tantan looked at herself. She was dressed neatly. Living with a group of men, although she trusted their character, she was still very careful in her daily life. This was actually a kind of courtesy.
Meeting her puzzled look, Ye Xiao said straightly: "It's not good to wear pajamas."
"But I usually..." She has been in contact with patients, and they are a group of patients with poor hygiene conditions. She has to change clothes when she comes back every day. Sometimes she changes into home clothes, but usually she changes into pajamas directly. It's comfortable. And she doesn't need to change again when she goes to bed. She only has one hand, so it's not very convenient to change clothes. The less she changes, the better.
But she realized halfway through her words: "I see, Zhou Li is a guest, so it is indeed impolite for me to wear pajamas."
"It's not because of this..." Ye Xiao paused, gave up, "Yes, that's what I mean."
Lin Tan Tan walked into the room obediently. While looking for clothes, he suddenly said, "Why should I change clothes? I won't go down. He didn't bring the patient here, right? Since it's just a question, it's the same to tell you." Lin Tan Tan discussed with Ye Xiao, "Then you can tell me, or you can ask him to go to the clinic to queue up tomorrow."
Anyway, she was impatient and changed her clothes. She thought that she was now a popular "miracle doctor". If others wanted to see her, they could only go to the clinic to register and queue up. She was back to work at the clinic, but there were only two hours in the morning, so it was difficult to get a number for her. It was difficult for anyone to cut in line. How could Zhou Li allow her to take the initiative to get in
Besides, it was still night time, and she could have simply ignored him if he had no manners in seeking medical treatment.
Having made up his mind, Lin Tan waved his hand and said, "Yes, I won't go down. I'm very tired and I want to go to sleep."
Ye Xiao was leaving the room to help her close the door, and he thought it was appropriate to hear her say that: "Okay, then, have a good rest."
Lin Tantan hurriedly called him: "Can you help me check what's wrong with this phone?"
The game interface on the phone was stuck, a strange map, a winding road, and the last red carrot on the road was bitten several times by several monsters. It looked very miserable.
Ye Xiao glanced at her, meaning, isn't it time to go to sleep
Lin Tan Tan chuckled.
Ye Xiao simply turned the phone off and on again, and it was working fine again: "Let Xiaotian fix it for you tomorrow, don't play too late."
"Yeah." Lin Tan Tan took the phone, "Bye." After the door closed, she threw herself on the bed. Ye Xiao thought of her furry body, which should be very soft when she fell into the bed. Her bed was also very soft. He felt it when he sat on it last time.
Lin Tantan's room was not visible from the first floor, so people only saw them go up the stairs and then disappear. It took a while for Ye Xiao to come down, but Lin Tantan was nowhere to be seen behind him. No one else thought anything was wrong, but Zhou Li looked a little strange.
"Where's Miss Lin?"
Ye Xiao said: "She is tired after a day and needs to rest now. Please tell me anything, Mr. Zhou."
Zhou Li hurriedly said, "I'm sorry for being rude to visit you." But in his heart he thought that Ye Xiao's control over Lin Tantan was even stronger than he imagined.
Zhou Li then talked about his brother's situation, and then apologized for almost robbing the supply truck last time, saying that these were all orders given by Li Qun and he had to obey them.
Ye Xiao didn't care about it. He just said that different positions were understandable, and his tone remained indifferent. Seeing this, Zhou Li quickly left.
Ye Xiao did not stand up to see him off, and his attitude was much colder than at the beginning. Zhou Li knew that he was very dissatisfied with Lin Tantan because he suddenly called out to him. He looked back at the villa in the night, smiled bitterly, and thought that he and Ye Xiao really did not get along. He had completely given up the idea of joining Ye Xiao, but if he could win Lin Tantan over, he would have this living signboard in his hand, and it would be much easier to start his own business.
But it is really not easy for Zhou Li to contact Lin Tan in private. She now only goes between the clinic, the shantytown and the villa. At most, she goes to the construction site in the east. There are people around her and she is never alone.
He wanted to get in touch with that brother when he was seeing the doctor, but because the latter's condition was not serious, he didn't even get a chance to see Lin.
Xu Tianjin’s helplessness was repeated here in Zhou Li’s case.
But it seemed as if God was helping him, for on that day a major mistake occurred in the shantytown where Lin Tantan lived.
Lin Tantan was working when he suddenly heard a commotion in the distance and the place became abuzz.
Lin Tantan stood up and asked what happened. The bodyguards hurried to see, and then a fight broke out, accompanied by people's sharp and terrified shouts of "He's turned into a zombie", "Zombies!" Lin Tantan secretly cried out that something was wrong and hurried over.
Since sick people have a higher chance of awakening than ordinary people, they naturally have a certain chance of becoming zombies. More than one such incident has occurred in the base, but they were all dealt with quickly and did not cause serious consequences. This is the first time it has happened under Lin Tantan's nose.
Before she arrived, a purple bolt of lightning struck down from the sky and hit the source of the trouble with a loud bang. Lin Tantan squeezed in to take a look and saw a pale and rotting corpse lying on the ground. Its head was charred and cracked, and it was deader than dead. It was obvious that it had been in corpse form not long ago and should be the source of the incident.
There were a few people lying there with their hands covering their necks, still in shock and unable to come to their senses. When they came to, their first reaction was to run into the crowd and escape. Lin Tan quickly sent out several straps to tie them up and asked the bodyguards to catch them: "Be careful not to get bitten."
She reminded that it was obvious that these people were bitten and infected, and there was basically no hope for them to survive.
Several people cried, struggled and begged. The people around them couldn't bear it, but no one was willing to let them go. The infected people had to be destroyed, otherwise everyone would die.
While the man was being tied up, a group of people came in from outside the crowd. They had red armbands on their arms and were obviously the people who patrolled and managed the shantytown. What surprised Lin Tan was that he saw Zhou Li among them.
"Tsk, another one turned into a zombie. I said this bunch of trash should be thrown out of the base." The man who should be the team leader sneered and asked his men to take the tied-up man away. He turned to Lin Tan and said, "Great doctor, don't waste your time here. Even if you cured 110,000 people, as long as one of these patients turns into a zombie, the whole group will be wiped out. This time you discovered it early, but what about next time?"
This man was chewing something in his mouth while he was talking, and he looked like a scoundrel.
Lin Tan Tan said calmly: "So we have to drive all the patients out of the base?"
The other party choked.
Lin Tan Tan continued, "If you have the ability, go and convince the leadership of the base, otherwise just work honestly. The flu has been brought under control, and the patients are gradually getting better. They will all recover soon. As for the risk of turning into zombies, isn't that why you exist?"
In the past, the supervision of shantytowns was not so strict. It was only after the zombies appeared that these patrol and management people suddenly increased. These people are not soldiers, but people sent by each force after a meeting attended by all forces. They work on a rotation basis and must ensure that they arrive immediately if an accident occurs in the shantytown they are responsible for that day.
It sounds like a leisurely job, but it would be extremely dangerous if someone turned into a zombie. Moreover, it is voluntary work and the base will not pay you any extra salary.
Moreover, they always hang around in shanty towns where patients gather and the environment is poor. Not only is it uncomfortable, but there is also the risk of infection, so these people naturally complain.
The other party sneered: "Okay, we are just doing the hard labor. "All of you stand still and check if anyone is bitten or scratched." While making arrangements, he muttered dissatisfiedly, "Some people, in order to satisfy their saintly heart, drag everyone down with them." He
The people around him pulled him: "Say less, do you think you're going to die?" Everyone knows that this Dr. Lin Tantan is someone who cannot be offended. Not to mention her own abilities, there is a great god behind her. Before, someone called himself "Laozi" in front of her, and he and his men were knocked down on the spot. I heard that guy still has a dull pain in his shoulder.
The team leader snorted coldly, stopped talking, and began to check everyone roughly.
Lin Tantan didn't take this person seriously. There were many people in the base who advocated exiling or even killing influenza patients. Her actions greatly offended these people, and this team leader was obviously one of them.
Just as she was leaving, Zhou Li suddenly came over from behind the team and said, "Ms. Lin."
Lin Tantan didn't ignore him this time. She asked, "You were the one who set off the lightning just now, right?"
"It was me. The situation was urgent. Fortunately, no innocent people were hurt." Zhou Li said with a smile, a bit elegant.
Lin Tan Tan thought to himself, Zhou Li was really capable, as he was able to accurately hit the head of a zombie in the fighting crowd from such a distance without causing any accidental injuries.
She made a few polite remarks, saying that it was a good thing he acted quickly, otherwise more people would have been bitten, and then politely asked him why he was here.
Although Zhou Li worked for Li Qun, with his level, he should not be doing such a hopeless, dirty and tiring job as patrolling the shantytowns.
Zhou Li said, "I have a relationship with one of them, so I came to see her. I didn't expect Miss Lin to be here."
Lin Tan Tan looked at him and actually suspected that this man came here on purpose. As if to confirm her suspicion, Zhou Li then said, "Ms. Lin, can you continue the conversation?"
"No, I'm busy, and we don't have anything to talk about, right?"
"Ms. Lin, you just listen to Ye Xiao. He controls you and doesn't let you see me. Are you really avoiding me?" Zhou Li stepped forward and spoke in a low voice.
Lin Tan Tan raised her eyebrows slightly: "When did he control me?" It was obvious that she didn't want to bother with this guy. Who likes to see a guy who is always thinking about getting you to change jobs
It's really annoying, okay? He doesn't even look at what he has, and he has the nerve to set his sights on her. He feels good about himself even though he doesn't give her a hard time. He just tried to build friendships before, but now he's actually started to slander Ye Xiao.
"Ms. Lin may not have noticed it, but the bystanders saw it clearly." Zhou Li smiled and made a "please" gesture.
Even if Zhou Li turned around and wanted to leave, Lin Tantan would not let him go easily. She wanted to see what he could say, so she asked the bodyguards not to follow her and walked aside with Zhou Li: "Tell me, how come I can't see clearly in this?"
Zhou Li knew that he had succeeded in the first step. He smiled slightly, and with a little regret, he spoke up for Lin Tan and sighed, "Miss Lin, don't you think Ye Xiao's control over you is too much?"
"You have no personal connections at all. The people around you are arranged by him. With your abilities, you should have a better future, but you work so hard every day. Do you know what people say? Those patients who received medical treatment did not remember your kindness, but only said how kind and righteous Ye Xiaobaicheng was."
Whenever he said something, Lin Tantan would retort in her heart, no personal relationship? What personal relationship do you need? This is the apocalypse base. Do you think it is a carefree school, a good place to make friends? People around you? Those were not arranged by Ye Xiao. Bai Cheng found them for her, but she paid for them herself. She obviously hired them herself.
As for others not remembering her kindness, that was nonsense. She obviously received many thanks every day. And it was right for everyone to thank Ye Xiao. If it wasn't for him convincing Lu Jianping to make the medical department strongly support the free clinic, the flu would have spread by now just relying on her personal efforts.
So if you really count it, Ye Xiao's contribution is greater than hers.
She neither agreed nor disagreed, and there was no aggrieved look on her face. She asked, "What else?"
Under Lin Tantan's gaze that said "I wonder what else you can say", Zhou Li had the illusion that he was a villain who spoke ill of others behind their backs, but he didn't want to miss this opportunity, so he could only continue speaking as he had prepared.
"And yesterday, you had already gone downstairs, but Ye Xiao forcibly took you back upstairs in front of so many people. Excuse me, he really didn't respect you at all. Would he do this to his other companions? If you were a man, would he do this to you?"
That's because I don't want to waste my precious gaming time on you, idiot!
Lin Tan said, "Oh?" and said, "So my biggest problem is not being a man?"
"This is not your problem." Zhou Li said seriously, "I am a man, I know how men think. They may respect or regard men of equal ability as rivals, but they all treat them as equals. But they generally look down on women, and once they find a woman with extraordinary ability, they will become curious and their first thought is to take her for themselves, to make her their own property, rather than a partner fighting side by side. This is their bad nature."
Zhou Li sighed, "He hides you very well. He even asks you to avoid me when I come to his house occasionally. He treats you as his property and is afraid of being coveted. His possessiveness is obvious and his mind is very narrow. Is such a person really worthy of you following him? Miss Lin, you have a lot of abilities and you really don't deserve to be wronged like this."
Although Zhou Li's words were a bit subjective, they actually cleverly grasped the psychology of the current female group.
Now the times have changed, everything is respected by strength, gender cannot determine anything, the stronger the woman is, the more she dislikes becoming a vassal of men, but there are so many men who think they have some ability and power, and still have a mentality of conquering the outstanding women around them, and even can't stand women who are stronger than themselves. How ridiculous is that? As far as Zhou Li knows, many people have fallen out because of this contradiction.
He felt that this was also Lin Tantan's Achilles' heel.
He had indeed guessed it right. The era in which Lin Tantan lived continued the tradition of respecting strength in the apocalypse. Apart from the fact that she had suffered a lot because of her too many superpowers, she had never suffered any loss because of her gender. The achievements she had made were beyond the reach of most men, and she was also accustomed to seeing all the bigwigs being polite and respectful to her.
She does not deny that women today may generally be inferior to men and need more help, but if anyone looks down on her because she is a woman, she will let the other person know how to write something they will regret.
Just like now.
Lin Tantan looked up at Zhou Li and said sincerely: "Zhou Li, you will definitely get full marks in reading comprehension." If she could clap, she would really like to applaud him to show her approval.
After praising him, she said, "Since you yourself said that men have bad qualities, are you immune to them since you are not a man?"
Zhou Li said: "Of course I am different."
"No, you have. You also look down on women." Lin Tantan smiled at him, and suddenly punched Zhou Li in the abdomen with a golden light. Zhou Li was caught off guard and bent his body. He took two steps back and looked up in disbelief: "You—"
Lin Tan Tan said coldly: "You are looking down on me." At the same time, he punched him on the head again.
The author has something to say: Tan Tan: You keep nagging and nagging, and I hate you the most. Today I will let you know that I don’t call you Sister Lin for nothing!
