Chapter 158: "Donuts" Without Sweetness
The heat of many days has been swept away.
The forty-degree heat disappeared without a trace, and even dropped to the normal temperature before the end of the world, but no one could laugh.
After the tornado, it was like a rainstorm leaking from the sky, not like rain, but like the mythical Gonggong angrily touched the Zhou Mountain, allowing the water of the Tianhe River to pour into the world.
There is no rain in sight.
I couldn't see the traces of the rain falling.
The endless wind and rain were like a tsunami, and there was only continuous rain and fog at a glance, and the scene two meters away was completely invisible.
Someone went to inquire about the news and learned that the outside of the base was based on the grassland ground, and it had been flooded in just two hours.
The base was completely closed.
Prevent stagnant water from backing up into the basement floor.
Chi Yue stretched out his hand and touched the glass window, instantly leaving a wet handprint on it, as if it could not be dissipated for a long time.
The figures of her and Wen Qizhou were reflected in the window, blurred, like a layer of mist.
They had guessed correctly that there would be three or four days of calm since the meteorite stopped falling, and yesterday's tornado was not the end, but the beginning of another disaster.
The torrential rain did not stop as quickly as a tornado, but always fell at a terrifying speed.
When it lasted for more than half a month, the entire grassland was submerged in an endless ocean.
The cattle and sheep were rushed back to the base early, while the other creatures outside were completely destroyed, and after the grassland was flooded, the carcasses of the animals floated down the water.
The corpse had been soaked in the water for a long time, and bacteria and viruses roamed the water. Once contaminated with this water, it is very likely to cause plague.
One problem after another followed.
The base has gone from being indifferent at the beginning to being on full alert now, and the hanging baskets that carry people up and down have never been activated.
They also became duckweed in the rain.
No one knows when they will be able to take a "doughnut" without a little sweetness.

"Xiaowen, are you at home?" The eldest lady who lives next door to them 1076 is knocking on the security door.
Wen Qizhou walked to the door.
Before I could ask, I heard a female voice full of sourness: "Oops! Mom, they're definitely not home! Who's that...... Didn't she drag Brother Wen to the cafeteria all day long? How could you come back and cook? ”
There are two canteens in the business district.
Canteen No. 2 has many dishes, and the price is much more expensive than Canteen No. 1, she went to the commercial street to eat before, and when she passed by Canteen No. 2, she saw Wen Qizhou and his wife through the glass window a few times, and she was envious and jealous, and she was sour.
"Sick ......"
Chi Yue, who is called "that who", happened to be standing by the stove and handling potatoes, and did not miss her words.
She put down the potato wedges, and when Wen Qizhou opened the door and was about to scold them, she took the first step and said, "Does it have anything to do with you where we eat?" It's your turn to say something? ”
The mother and daughter outside the door came from Jingshi.
Mother Liu Yan has a loud voice, loves to take advantage of small advantages, often picks up at the door of other people's houses, smells the aroma of rice from other people's stir-frying, asks for things with a shy face, and loves to quarrel with neighbors.
Daughter Yang Xinxin boasts of her excellent appearance, and she is equally jealous of all women who are more beautiful than her, and has no moral bottom line, and the high-quality men in the base are eager to hook up again.
It's outrageous.
"You ......"
Yang Xinxin, who was just about to refute, smelled a rich aroma, like grabbing Chi Yue's tail, and put on a preachy face: "Are you stewing chicken again?" Although Brother Wen's salary is high, you can't practice his points like this! It's a shame that you're still Brother Wen's wife, and you won't even save. ”
"Do I stew chicken or duck, and I have something to do with you? Spent your points? Where did you get your face to lecture me? ”
Chi Yue scoffed.
His eyes glanced at Yang Xinxin contemptuously.
The ridicule and contempt in her eyes seemed to turn into ice needles, all piercing into Yang Xinxin's thick flesh.
"My Xin Xin is for your good!" Liu Yan's white eyes couldn't wait to roll to the sky: "Xiaowen just didn't meet a better one, so I fell in love with a woman who did this." You have to be careful, be careful if you throw it away as a rag one day! ”
Chi Yue: "Do you wish I was 'thrown' and make room for your daughter?" It's a pity...... My husband doesn't look down on a pheasant that is as good as he can and scratches his head. ”
"Who are you scolding pheasant?!"
"Who asks and scolds whom."
The mother and daughter looked at her smiling and moaning, and they were so angry that their faces were red and their necks were hot, and the breath stuck in their throats was not smooth.
Yang Xinxin, who couldn't hold his breath, raised his hand.
Just as he was about to teach Chi Yue a lesson, a "pop" sound suddenly came, and the skin of his arm became hot and painful.
And the initiator Wen Qizhou was looking at them coldly with gloomy eyes: "In front of me, insulting my wife? Do you really think the rules of the base can bind me? ”
He looked at the eyes of a dead man, taught Yang Xinxin and Liu Yan's hearts to tighten, and then realized that they smelled danger.
Yang Xinxin was speechless for a long time.
Liu Yan was cheeky and said: "Oh, it's all a misunderstanding...... Misunderstand! She sneered, pulled Yang Xinxin, who was still at the door, and turned her head to the next room.
"It's so fast." Chi Yue looked at the backs of the two deserted escapes, and closed the security door in front of him with a "bang".
She walked to the stove, and Wen Qizhou kept up with her, and the yin owl under her eyes was gently covered when she hugged her.
"Wife." He rested his chin on her shoulder, recalling the words "broken rag", and a fire welled up in his heart.
But the tone was still gentle: "Between us, only you throw my share." "No matter before or now, he is the person who can't do without each other the most, and if he has to leave her private space, he can't wait to stick to her twenty-four hours a day.
Ji Yue burst out laughing.
She turned her head to look at the eyes full of seriousness, raised her chin slightly, and kissed the thin lips: "I didn't take their words to heart, and I was reluctant to throw you away." ”
"How reluctant is it?"
"Reluctantly, reluctantly."
"Then kiss again."
When a piece of softness covered her thin lips again, Wen Qizhou tightened the strength of his arms around her waist and chased after her to deepen the kiss.
Ambiguity.
Chi Yue, who was almost suffocated by the kiss, leaned sideways and pushed his chest, and a pair of apricot eyes were still full of spring when he retreated, and it looked even more seductive when they fell into his eyes.
"Wife ......"
A hoarse voice mixed with a different meaning, like sandboard placed in the ear, gently grinded.
Chi Yue interrupted the thought that had just come to him: "No. She pursed her lips: "Yun Yan, they're coming over soon." ”
Chi Yunyan and Xie Changxiao are on vacation today.
When they wake up, they come over to eat.
Wen Qizhou, who almost forgot about this stubble, regretted the "um" sound, let go of Chi Yue's waist, and prepared to burn the ribs.
*
"You guys just had a fight with the guy next door?" The unkempt two walked into their home with a pair of slippers.
It was Xie Changxiao who spoke out.
He woke up earlier than Chi Yunyan, and vaguely heard the movement coming from the door of their house, but he was not very sure.
Chi Yue: "Not really. ”
At most, it is two sentences of "communication", and then the person who deliberately finds fault will be scared and flee.
She took out a large bowl of chicken soup and handed it to Chi Yunyan, who was standing behind them, and he brought it to the coffee table in front of the sofa.
"Yang Xinxin is eyeing you again?" Xie Changxiao sat on the carpet with Erlang's legs crossed, and his eyes fell on Wen Qizhou.
"Again?"
"She just harassed Yan Shuo the day before yesterday."
“……”
"And Brother Xiao and Yao Chengwei." Chi Yunyan added next to him: "She is now famous, and people with a little condition in our building basically know her." ”
Disgust flashed in Wen Qizhou's eyes.
He brought the fried wheat vegetables and potato roasted pork ribs to the coffee table, and lightly opened his thin lips: "Sooner or later, she will have to play off." ”
"I think so." Chi Yunyan complained, followed the fragrance that soaked into the tip of his nose, lowered his eyes and glanced at the three dishes on the coffee table, and said greedily: "It's so good to eat today?" ”
The chicken soup is still stewed with codonopsis.
It's extremely nourishing.
"And a pot of crayfish." Chi Yue held a pot of steaming spicy crayfish and placed it in front of them.
Ji Yunyan was shocked.
He couldn't take his eyes off the crayfish lying in the red oil soup with the shrimp head removed: "Where did you get the crayfish?" ”
"Where else could it be?" Xie Changxiao is used to finding excuses for them: "I caught them in the river." ”
"Is there a river nearby?"
"Yes."
Chi Yunyan, who received an affirmative answer, didn't bother to delve into it, and as soon as he took the dishes and chopsticks they handed over, he picked up the lobster.
Wen Qizhou followed and stretched out his chopsticks.
He picked up five or six crayfish, cooled them a little, peeled them one by one along the shell of the shrimp's belly, and then put the shrimp with a bowl on Chi Yue's left hand side.
"You eat too." Chi Yue picked up a piece of shrimp meat and fed it to his mouth, and then handed him the shrimp he had peeled and handed him a bowl.
Their behavior of peeling shrimp for each other and exchanging bowls was so used to Xie Changxiao and Chi Yunyan that they couldn't get used to it anymore.
With just one look, they pinch the lobster and peel it slowly, satisfying their taste buds one after another.
"Sister." When Ji Yunyan was serving rice, he suddenly thought of something: "I saw Chi Anying in Building 3 yesterday. ”
It's been a long time since I've heard Ji Anying's name.
Chi Yue was in a trance for a moment.
casually asked, "How is she doing?" ”
"Looks okay." Chi Yunyan paused for two seconds, and remembered the little boy who called her "Mom": "She still has a child." ”
"How old is the child?"
"Estimated two or three years old."
"Didn't you say hello?"
"No, she pretended not to see me." He is even less likely to stick to the other party's cold ass: "It's good not to disturb each other." ”
He was heartbroken by Chi Anying.
The other party's abandonment and indifference have made him unable to treat her with sincerity like before the end of the world.
Chi Yue didn't ask again.
She sandwiched two ribs for Chi Yunyan, and changed the topic without a trace, so that the atmosphere of instant silence came alive.
While chatting, they frequently poked out their chopsticks between their fingers and slowly swept away the three dishes and one soup. (End of chapter)
