C26 Argument
The expressions of Hu Yongqiang and the rest did not turn any better with the appearance of the outcome of the discussion. Initially, they thought that it was because they were afraid of the large number of undeads outside.
Although we have never faced such a large number of undeads, which is almost comparable to the hundreds of thousands of people parading on television, Hu Yongqiang and the rest have always been out there, facing more undeads than we are, so we were not at a loss because of this.
What really gave them a headache was that when they went out a while ago, they found that almost all the major shopping malls in the city were occupied by people.
The things we found had to be searched at the various small supermarkets, which made it much more dangerous and difficult.
As long as they recovered from the fear in front of them, they would immediately know what they would need the most. It had to be said that as long as they had the ability, occupying a shopping mall was the most sensible thing to do right now. At least they wouldn't have to worry about food and clothing.
Just as they were about to give up on fighting with others over the mall, one of the mall's leaders, the one we went in previously, Big Hair, had discussed a condition with Hu Yongqiang and the others. That is, they want us to work together with them, and wherever they move us over, we can take everything out to share.
After clarifying the start of the matter, I asked in confusion, "Why would they make such a strange request? "Aren't you afraid that we'll kick them out after we bring them back?"
Chen Ming continued: "If that happens, it won't benefit us at all if they create trouble here."
I nodded. That was indeed the truth. "Then what are you hesitating for?"
Hu Yongqiang pinched his forehead: "Just now, what Chen Ming said was also what we were most worried about. They are different from the people in the courtyard, they are not easy to manage, and their numbers are at least a dozen.
I nodded, I glanced at Chen Ming, when we first appeared, Hu Yongqiang and the rest must have had the same reaction, but we appeared as a family at that time, with the older people and children, and most of the girls, that was why they were able to accept us.
It was very quiet in the room. Hu Yongqiang took some time to puff and smoke until he finally couldn't hold it in anymore and looked at Chen Ming: "Brother Chen, what do you think about this matter?"
Chen Ming paused for a while, "For the time being, we should wait for the undeads to pass by. With them here, there will definitely be a hidden danger, but with that mall, we can reduce the risk a lot. The risk and the rewards are only worth half the risk, you decide."
Chen Ming really knows how to speak, and I started to suspect if he used to be a businessman. This was equivalent to not saying anything, and didn't answer Hu Yongqiang's question, but made people feel that it was real, and didn't try to fight for Hu Yongqiang's leadership position.
...
After coming out from Hu Yongqiang's room, it started to snow again. I didn't know why there was so much snow this year, but my hands were in my pockets and my head was lowered as I walked. I don't know if it was just my mind acting up, but I couldn't stop thinking about the scene I saw on the roof.
As I was thinking too much, Chen Ming who was walking in front suddenly stopped and I ran straight into him.
Turning around to look at me who was covering my nose, Chen Ming opened his mouth. "I forgot to tell you something."
"What is it?"
"The room next to Hu Yongqiang's was originally Zhang Ping's room. Now that it's empty, I'll move in tomorrow."
After being stunned for a moment, I nodded my head hesitantly. "Ang … "Alright …"
He stared at me for a moment, then said, "They thought you were really my wife, so you had to live with me."
"What?!" I didn't dare to shout loudly, so I immediately jumped up.
Placing his hands in his pockets, Chen Ming continued to walk in the direction of his home. "I've already agreed to it.
"But …" However … I followed behind Chen Ming for a long time but nothing came out, so I could only dejectedly follow behind him back to his house.
Seeing Chen Ming and I returned, everyone heaved a sigh of relief. Grandma pulled me over and sat on the sofa, "Are you scaring us to death? Why did you take so long to come back?"
Glancing at Chen Ming, I opened my mouth. "Nothing much, I'm just discussing a matter with them …"
"It's good that you're fine, it's good that you're not back. I'm always absent-minded when I cook." My mother leaned out of the kitchen and looked at me.
Nuo Nuo withdrew back into Chen Ming's embrace.
Looking at Nuo Nuo and Nian Bing, I suddenly thought about Zhang Ping and Bao Ming who had died, and then thought about living in their house with Chen Ming. I suddenly felt indescribably annoyed.
I have never been an atheist, I believe there are things in this world that science cannot explain. Although Zhang Ping and Bao Ming are not bad people, it is really depressing that I decided to stay in their house right after they died.
When Chen Ming was talking about this matter with his family, I saw that Qi Qi was obviously stunned for a moment, then looked at Chen Ming and me with a little disbelief.
I didn't dare to look at her, so I quickly explained the entire matter to my parents, including Chen Ming's weird "This is my wife" when she first arrived. For my daughter, Huang Hua's eldest daughter, to suddenly have to live alone with a man, my parents would definitely find it hard to accept.
Xiao Yu and Lin Wei knew what Qi was going to do to Chen Ming, so they didn't joke around like they usually did.
Chen Ming lowered his head to play with Nuo Nuo, completely ignoring the atmosphere in the house, I stiffened my face and looked at them one by one.
After who knows how long had passed, my father let out a deep sigh and slapped his thigh as he said to me, "Alright!" Go! Even when my daughter grows up, I won't be able to keep her! "
My face darkened almost instantly. "Dad …"
Realizing that what he said was not right, my father waved his hands towards Chen Ming, wanting to say something, but stopping himself. "Chen Ming, you are a good child.
Qi Qi really minded the fact that Chen Ming and I were staying together. She didn't say a word to me before we moved there with our things.
I am very distressed about this, but also a little bit strange in my heart, always feel that I am a very vulgar person, snatch a friend's boyfriend.
When I told her about Qi Qi, he only smiled bitterly and waved his hands, "Don't take that girl's personality to heart. Chen Ming doesn't have anything to do with you, so she just got angry.
I nodded with a coy smile, feeling a little weak inside.
Actually, I was just moving out. Other than going back to sleep at night, there was nothing else that mattered. During the day, I stayed by Mom's side all day, and Kiki seemed to gradually understand. After my repeated attempts to take the initiative, she finally spoke to me.
Because of the undead army, we stayed in the courtyard for almost a week without any activities. Every household had their doors locked, so Chen Ming and I would stay at home.
Hu Yongqiang had also arranged for people to switch shifts to prevent corpses from rushing over. There was no way for us to find them in time.
It's probably because Chen Ming and I were living together that he felt a sense of danger, and that the hidden love in the past has recently begun to develop towards an open love.
was especially fond of Nuo Nuo. When Chen Ming went out to the courtyard to sit, she followed him out and started to chat with him. This way, even my parents could tell what Qi Qi Qi was thinking.
Privately, she taught me to live with Chen Ming more than ever before, and not to act recklessly.
As I raised my hand and swore that I would never do anything rash, my mouth twitched.
I didn't dare to tell them that amongst the two rooms that they had cleaned up previously, one of them actually didn't have anyone living inside. Chen Ming and I slept in the same room, originally intending to let him sleep on the floor and make a bed while I slept. I slept on the bed, according to Chen Ming's suggestion, Hu Yongqiang would often come to our place to chat with Chen Ming at night.
They would often drag Chen Ming along until one or two in the morning.
This way, if the two of us were to sleep in two rooms, it would be the same as telling Hu Yongqiang that we were lying to him.
And then there was the fact that I didn't dare sleep in this house.
Normally when Chen Ming and I chat, no matter how late it is, I would sit by the side and wait with my blanket wrapped around. It's not that I am interested in their chat, but it's just that I really don't dare to go back to the dark room to sleep alone.
Chen Ming and I didn't want to sleep on the ground. The current temperature has no heat, so sleeping on the ground is no different from sleeping in the snow.
Finally, Chen Ming curled his lips and said: "I'm not interested in you." After that, the two of us slept on the same bed, and in the middle, I drew the third and eighth line on the first day. However, on the morning of the second day, my thighs were pressed on top of Chen Ming's stomach.
It's probably because Chen Ming isn't cold or hot at all, but Qi Qi is extremely discouraged and she has grown more distant from me.
I can only express my helplessness in this regard.
In the end, Hu Yongqiang decided to find that group of undeads and have a good chat with them. After they left, we continued our work.
Qi Qi, Lin Wei, and I did not work together with Xiao Yu, so when I was washing clothes, Xiao Yu still asked me, "Silently, let me ask you one question, don't mind my gossip, I really want to know."
"Why are you suddenly so formal? Just ask. "
She moved closer to him: "Is there something going on between you and Chen Ming?"
I put down the clothes in my hands and looked at her. I helplessly said, "I really don't have any. His relationship with me is purer than plain water. Really! I promise! "
Xiao Yu shook her head, "Then you really need to chat with Qi Qi properly when you're free."
I was a little discouraged and a little impatient. "What are you talking about? "No matter how much a little girl she is, she should still have a sense of propriety. If her feelings are not good enough, she just goes and blames others. There's no reason for her to ignore her."
Xiao Yu patted me, "Be quiet! Isn't she like that because you lived with Chen Ming? "
However, just as Xiao Yu finished speaking, Qi Qi's voice came from behind her, "Do I not have any sense of propriety?!"
