Every day, Lin Wenwen and Long Qingying would do some other exercises in their room after jogging. Lin Wenwen asked Long Qingying to supervise her every single day.
Yuan Tianxing wouldn't let them help in the construction site anyway. They might be able to do some construction work, but Yuan Tianxing could not let them distract the male workers.
In the post-apocalyptic era, the male-female ratio was a thousand to one. So one could imagine how those guys who hadn't touched any woman for years would feel if they could see two young girls every single day. They would surely not be able to stay calm.
Therefore, Lin Wenwen and Long Qingying normally stayed in their room or helped in the kitchen. When there was no work to do, they would stay in their room to reduce the chances of making troubles.
Usually, they would go out to jog around the hotel when the workers had left to work. They jogged in the morning, exercised in the afternoon, and practiced combat skills after that.
Even Long Qingying was surprised that Lin Wenwen had made it for so many days. She thought that the latter would give up in just a few days; but to her surprise, that didn't happen.
At present, Lin Wenwen was already different from before. She was no longer giving out that gentle and mild vibe, but had become a little manly. No wonder Miss. Lu could tell her difference that day.
"I don't know, " she said, "But look at those trucks! I think they were collecting supplies nearby. I don't think he'd make a trip here specially."
Lin Wenwen nodded in agreement as the two of them went upstairs and walked into the hall.
Long Qingying looked at her and asked, "Aren't you gonna take a day off? Your wounds haven't healed yet, have they?"
Lin Wenwen shook her head without hesitation and said, "I'm fine! I've already adapted to these injuries. They're nothing. I'm afraid that once I rest, what I've been working hard for would be ruined. So, I'll continue with it."
Her injuries were only flesh wounds. Those hurt quite much, but would heal in just a few days. Before, those wounds might have made her scream; she might have allowed herself to rest without doing anything. But now, she thought differently. Earlier on, she did not know how hard the soldiers worked in the army, so she had no idea how Lin Qiao and Lin Feng got through the toughest period when they first joined the army.
But, she recently learned about that as she asked Wei Jingchen and some others about how they were trained in the army. After that, she suddenly realized that her big sister had worked really hard. If her big brother and sister didn't work that hard to strengthen themselves in the army, her entire family might not have been able to survive the apocalypse, and being with families like now would be difficult.
Among the survivors of the apocalypse, many were soldiers.
This time, the fall of her old base, the death of Lin Qiao, and the long escape gave her a deep understanding of the jungle law in the post-apocalypse era. She didn't blame Lin Qiao for protecting her too well during the past five years, but did blame herself for being too short-sighted.
So now, she trained herself as hard as she could and learned how to fight. She knew that as long as she was able to protect herself, her families could worry less about her and be more relieved.
"Alright then, I'll try to make your bruises heal quicker tonight, " said Long Qingying.
Lin Wenwen laughed, then turned and hugged her as she said, "Thank you! Qingying, you're the best!"
Long Qingying pushed her away and complained, "You're soaked in sweat. Don't hug me... I feel hot."
Lin Wenwen chuckled and let her go. After that, the two of them walked into their room, picked up the glasses on the table, and each took a few sips, then headed to room which was at the end of the hallway before entering it.
That was an empty room, with no furniture pieces except two chairs in the corners. They put their glasses on the chairs; Lin Wenwen also put her towel on the back of a chair.
After that, Lin Wenwen started to practice on her horse stance.
That was right, horse stance! It made her feel awkward at first, but as Long Qingying joined her, she felt slightly better.
At times, it really took at least two people to make something seem less awkward.
...
Downstairs, Wu Chengyue and the others took seats and chatted for a while, then Yuan Tianxing brought them to the construction site. After that, Wu Chengyue asked casually, "Why didn't I see Miss. Lu? Is she mysterious in here too?"
Yuan Tianxing smiled, "Ah, she's been busy at training zombies to farm lately."
Wu Chengyue smiled as well and said, "That I know. So, is she normally in that sweet potato field? Isn't she in charge of the construction site?"
Yuan Tianxing responded, "We have clear division of work. She's not responsible for the construction. Chief Wu, since you know that she's been training zombies, I assume you know about that too."
While speaking, he looked at Wu Chengyue with a meaningful look.
Wu Chengyue nodded and said, "I know, but not clearly enough."
Yuan Tianxing smiled at him and said, "In fact, you're not just here to see our new base site, but you're also here for her, right?"
Wu Chengyue gave him the same smile and responded, "Ah, you figured it out! So, I'll just be honest with you. I'm here for her."
Yuan Tianxing laughed, "Then why didn't you go straight to the mountain area instead of wasting your time with me?"
Wu Chengyue laughed as well, "Don't say that. I'll be shy."
Yuan Tianxing spent a few seconds gazing at him, then responded, "What you said made me speechless..."
Alright, he had lost. Wu Chengyue was more thick-skinned than him!
The people who followed behind them were even more confused. Both Wu Chengyue and Yuan Tianxing seemed a little silly right now...
Wu Yueling, who hadn't seen Lin Qiao, started to lose patience and patted her father on the shoulder. Wu Chengyue stopped walking, then turned to her and asked, "What's wrong?"
But, the little one only gazed at him in the eyes.
Wu Chengyue immediately understood her meaning, so he nodded and smiled, "Alright, we'll go and find her now."
The little one quickly nodded at him in response.
Yuan Tianxing said to Wu Chengyue, "You've been planning this since you asked us to watch Ling Ling last time, haven't you?"
Wu Chengyue shook his head and said, "No, you have misunderstood! That was just a coincidence! Ling Ling does like Miss. Lu very much, but I wasn't so interested in her before."
"Are you interested in her now?" Yuan Tianxing asked.
He looked at Wu Chengyue who was clearly planning to steal Lin Qiao from him and his friends. He wanted very much to send this man away, but knew that he could not do it.
This time, Wu Chengyue only smiled. He didn't deny or say anything else.
Behind him, Lu Tianyi whispered to Lin Feng, "Our Chief is going to steal Miss. Lu away from you. Aren't you going to try to stop him?"
Lin Feng had guessed it out based on the conversation between Yuan Tianxing and Wu Chengyue."How?" he asked.
