Chapter Fifty-Eight: Peace?
As night fell, the afterglow of the setting sun shone on the windowsill, as if trying to struggle a little longer.
The night is really a contradictory and cool point for human beings. Darkness covers too much sin and leaves many people in trouble. But at the same time, it is also a time when many people love miserably.
For example, men and women in love, and men and women who like nightlife. It seems that in their eyes, staying up late is an unforgivable thing, but staying up all night is a very refreshing thing.
Some people's strange physiological characteristics and biological clocks make them more excited at night, and those animals that haunt the night are more active at night.
Zhang Yilan, who returned to the room, made the bed, and in the last afterglow of the sunset, her mood was also extremely excited.
That boy, it's Zhao Yang, right? Thinking of his charming smile and considerate actions in the elevator just now, Zhang Yilan was also like a young girl with a spring in her heart.
Knowing that he also lived in this community and was in the same unit, Zhang Yilan was also a little excited, and the movements in her hands stopped unconsciously.
He was still so gentle, so gentlemanly. His words and deeds are just right, even more noble than in his previous life, and he looks like a real prince......
laughed like a fool for a long time, and unconsciously messed up the bed that had been made, Zhang Yilan had to laugh at her love brain.
Shaking her head, Zhang Yilan left the image of the handsome and handsome boy behind her and began to tidy up the room seriously.
After all the furniture was placed, Zhang Yilan also boiled a pot of hot water and sat on the sofa to rest.
At this time, night really came, like a black beast, which seemed to engulf the whole world mercilessly.
Zhang Yilan didn't bother to turn on the lights, just in the dark, looked at the street lamp outside the window, and looked there, but her thoughts didn't know where to run.
After a while, she seemed to hear someone knocking on the door, walked to the door and asked cautiously, "Who?"
"I'm Paula, open the door." A familiar female voice came from outside the door, and Zhang Yilan also hesitated.
I still opened the door, what should come will always come, and I can't run away, so it's better to face it calmly.
Zhang Yilan opened the door and showed a bright smile, and Paula outside the door was also dressed in casual clothes and looked in a good mood.
"Come, come in." Zhang Yilan invited Paula into the room, and quickly closed the door and turned on the light by the way.
Paula also took off her coat casually, threw it on the sofa, sat down and said, "How do you feel about going out today?"
Zhang Yilan made a cup of hot tea and served it to Paula, and said happily: "I went out this time and left personal information, my friend came to the base, and he will come to me when he sees it."
Zhang Yilan also sat down with a teacup, paused and continued: "The atmosphere here is not bad, I like it a lot."
Paula, who may also feel a little cold, held the teacup as if to warm her hands, and took a small sip gently.
"Well, we're going to stay here for a while. There is an apocalyptic crisis in this area for three thousand miles, and there is no way to go home now. Paula seemed to like tea very much, and her smile became even more charming after taking a sip.
"yes, I've heard that we're in quarantine right now. I just don't know when this damn end of the world will end? Zhang Yilan had a bitter face, and there was a trace of sadness on her fair face.
"An end-time crisis is both a crisis and an opportunity. Many ordinary people have awakened under various crises, established meritorious deeds and even accepted knighthoods, and became nobles. Under such conditions, the ability can also obtain some natural treasures, and even increase in strength by leaps and bounds. Paula seemed to be explaining, and it was like warning.
Zhang Yilan felt more and more that these powerful aristocratic abilities seemed to be different from ordinary abilities.
Alice, Edward, and Paula all seem to have a convincing charm, and this charm seems to be a kind of aura that is difficult to explain, or even a domain, in addition to what they have.
"Baby, why do you keep looking at me? Aren't you in love with me? Paula saw that Zhang Yilan had been staring at herself, looking very intoxicated, and suddenly said with a smile.
Zhang Yilan looked at Paula, who suddenly approached, and could even see the clear eyeliner and bright red lipstick on her face.
Startled, I realized that I was wandering again. She hurriedly coughed and coughed to hide her embarrassment.
"Uh, I'm sorry, I'm distracted."
Paula reluctantly asked, "Baby, what do you want?" So into the gods? ”
"Well, when I think of something I can't understand for the time being, I get distracted." Zhang Yilan smiled embarrassedly.
Paula also said understandingly: "What can't be understood? Say it and I'll help you answer it. ”
Saying that, she lifted Erlang's legs, swaying back and forth, looking very leisurely.
Zhang Yilan didn't want to ask this question, in her opinion, it was okay to have a gentleman's friendship with Paula all the time, after all, she was still a little afraid of this woman.
"When I first stepped into society, I was full of curiosity about everything in the world. I have so many questions on my mind that I can't finish talking about the last three days and three nights. Forget it, I'll slowly understand it later. Zhang Yilan also put on a little girl's face that was ignorant of the world, unwilling to say the problem.
Paula didn't insist on it, nodded in understanding, and sat there quietly sipping tea.
Seeing that Paula didn't want to leave, Zhang Yilan was also a little hesitant in her heart. After thinking about it, he said, "Paula, it seems that the base is quite strict at night, and you are not allowed to move around."
"Yes, the policy is not to allow the base stores to open. In fact, if you think about it, you can understand that the peaceful scene we see now is false, after all, we are now in the infection zone of the T virus......" Paula looked at the street lamp outside the window and said something like this.
Zhang Yilan also looked at the street lamp outside the window thoughtfully, she also thought that she was now in a community where nobles lived, and the outside world might not be as peaceful as it is now, right?
When I closed my eyes, I seemed to be able to hear the faint pain of ordinary people, the complaining voices, and a faint ache in my heart.
Paula looked at Zhang Yilan and seemed to show pity for all beings, and felt very strange. Just said a few casual words, do you need to be so emotional?
Paula then grabbed Zhang Yilan's hand, interrupting her musings. Zhang Yilan also realized that the current situation was a little bad, and after thinking about it, she still didn't break free of Paula's hand for the time being.
Sensing that Paula was slowly approaching, she slowly hugged her, and Zhang Yilan finally couldn't bear it anymore, pushed her away, and hurriedly dodged to the side.
The two looked at each other, and at this moment, no one was pretending to be themselves.
