She touched her nose, looked at the sky which had already become completely dark, and finally gave up waiting. She went into the cafeteria to eat something, and then went straight back to her room.
Although he didn't say it explicitly from beginning to end, Cui Ling also made it clear that he would not pester her. Liang Tan should have been happy at this moment, but in fact, she felt inexplicably uncomfortable at the moment. She tossed and turned in bed and did not fall asleep until 12 o'clock at night.
Unfortunately, she slept for less than two hours before she was forced to wake up due to a sore throat. After opening her eyes, she drank a glass of water in the dark, and then found that her head was also heavy.
After she kept lying about being sick, it seemed like she was really sick.
Liang Tan drank a large glass of water and forced herself to fall asleep, but even if she closed her eyes, she could not ignore the discomfort in her body.
After tossing and turning for a while, she forced herself to put on her clothes and walked to the infirmary in the night.
It was three o'clock in the morning and there was no one in the base. She walked alone, feeling the chill penetrate her bones for the first time in a long time.
It was too cold. She hadn't felt this cold for a long time since she had the physique of a humanoid killer. Liang Tan shivered and came to the infirmary with difficulty. After knocking on the door for a long time, someone finally opened it.
"What's wrong?" The doctor on duty yawned.
Liang Tan tightened his clothes and said in a hoarse voice: "I have a fever."
"Come in and take your temperature." After the doctor said that, he opened the door and let her in.
Liang Tan walked into the room dizzy and took the thermometer and started measuring.
Five minutes later, the doctor looked at the thermometer and gave her a small bottle of alcohol.
"...What do you mean?" Liang Tan was puzzled.
"Until the temperature reaches 40 degrees, you cannot use medicine according to regulations. Just wipe your palms with alcohol," the doctor explained. "Medicine is in short supply. More medicine should be reserved for minors. I hope you can understand."
Liang Tan: “…”
"Go back, and remember to wipe yourself with alcohol," the doctor said, handing her a thermometer. "Take your temperature every half an hour. If it's over 40 degrees, remember to come to me for antipyretics."
"...Thank you." Liang Tan took the thermometer speechlessly and once again felt the despair of the end of the world.
Since she couldn't take medicine, there was no point in staying here, so she could only leave with a sad face.
She was still alone on the way back, but her mood was very different. For example, when she came here, she only felt physically uncomfortable, but now she felt both physically and mentally uncomfortable.
She walked forward dejectedly, but when she was about to reach the fork in the road, she suddenly ran into Cui Ling.
"Why are you not sleeping yet?"
"What are you doing outside?"
The two voices sounded almost at the same time.
"I just checked the fence." Cui Ling replied with a frown.
Liang Tan paused, then answered his question: "I had a fever and went to the infirmary."
Cui Ling stared at her for a moment and reached out to touch her forehead.
Liang Tan was groggy at the moment and forgot about the embarrassment. He just let him touch him and said to him, "It's not even 40 degrees. The doctor didn't prescribe any medicine, but only gave me a small bottle of alcohol."
"This is the rule at the base," Cui Ling took the alcohol and thermometer from her, "Let's go."
"Where are you going?" Liang Tan was puzzled.
Cui Ling glanced at her and said, "Go to your room."
"Why are you going to my room?" Liang Tan couldn't figure it out.
"Take care of you," Cui Ling's eyes were lightly blue, and his voice was much more tired than usual, but his eyes were as calm as ever, "Or do you think you can cool down by yourself now, and take your temperature every half an hour?"
Liang Tan hesitated for a few seconds, but before he could say anything, he had already taken the things and went to the girls' dormitory. Liang Tan had no choice but to follow him.
Thirty-six.5 degrees, no recurring fever.
Shen Mushen relaxed his shoulders slightly, and just as he put away the thermometer, the young man's voice came from outside again -
"Xiao Gu, why don't you say anything? If you don't say anything, I'll take it as your agreement."
Cui Ling's eyes flashed with displeasure, like a beast whose territory had been invaded, with a dangerous aura all over his body. However, he quickly hid his aura and became calm again.
Outside the door, the young man was still standing there. After saying that, he still didn't hear Liang Tan's response, and he suddenly felt dissatisfied. Fortunately, it was training time now, and both male and female soldiers went out for training. There was no one in the corridor, so he didn't feel embarrassed.
He is good-looking and has strong special abilities. He was promoted to private as soon as he entered the base and was very popular among the girls in the base. Under normal circumstances, he would definitely not coax a woman like this. If Liang Tan's face was not particularly outstanding and his future was not particularly limitless, he would have turned around and left the first time she refused to open the door.
Just bear with it, because there are not many people in this base who are worthy of him. The young man took a deep breath, and although there was only a door in front of him, he still said cheerfully: "Xiao Liang... I will call you Chao Chao from now on. It's this time, you should be hungry, is there anything you want to eat? I will buy it for you."
After saying that, he thought of her appetite, and asked with a pain in his stomach: "How about Roujiamo? And pancakes, and I'll bring you some porridge..."
It was past three in the morning at the base, the street lights had gone out, and the dark path was illuminated entirely by moonlight.
Liang Tan's eyes were so burnt that he could hardly open them, and he accidentally bumped into Cui Ling's back.
Cui Ling stopped suddenly, and waited until she stood firm before turning around: "I'll hold you."
"...No need, I can walk by myself." Liang Tan forced himself to cheer up, but soon his eyelids drooped again.
Cui Ling simply didn't discuss it with her and just picked the person up.
Liang Tan's feet suddenly flew into the air, and he suddenly became much more sober: "Captain..."
"No matter who it is, I will take care of it." Cui Ling's words blocked all her explanations.
Liang Tan opened his mouth, but nothing came out. Instead, a chill came out from his bones. Realizing that his high fever was indeed fierce, he simply stopped resisting and leaned weakly on his neck.
Her breath was hot. Cui Ling's pace became disordered for a moment, and then he walked faster.
Ten minutes later, the two returned to the dormitory. Cui Ling put Liang Tan on the bed and turned to boil some hot water for her.
The single dormitory was small, and I didn't feel it when I lived alone, but suddenly there was a man over 1.9 meters tall, and the whole room became crowded. He stood at the table and boiled water, his back was tall and broad, and Liang Tan could faintly smell his scent while sitting on the bed.
It is a scent similar to the combination of mint and pine, with a sharp and fresh feeling unique to winter.
Liang Tan's nose twitched and he secretly took a few more breaths of the smell in the air.
When Cui Ling turned around, he met her feverish eyes.
"uncomfortable?"
"...No." Liang Tan sat up straight silently, pretending that he had done nothing.
Cui Ling glanced at her for a moment before pouring out the boiled water. After cooling it to a suitable temperature, he handed it to her: "Drink it."
"Oh." Liang Tan took it obediently, holding the hot cup and drinking all the water in one breath. Before she could get up and put the cup down, Cui Ling had already taken the cup away.
"Thank you." It seemed that this was the only word she could say.
Cui Ling ignored her thanks, put the cup away, walked up to her, and knelt on one knee.
Liang Tan leaned back in shock: "You're proposing?!"
Cui Ling's outstretched hand stopped in mid-air. After a long while, he looked at her wordlessly: "Take off your shoes."
Liang Tan: “…”
What is embarrassment? This is embarrassment. Liang Tan suspected that he had awakened another supernatural power.
You can see the solidified air and the invisible ellipsis on Cui Ling's forehead.
She coughed and suddenly became weak: "I, I am sick and confused."
"Then talk less." Cui Ling said, put one hand around her ankle, lifted her foot, and started to untie her shoelaces with the other hand.
Liang Tan looked at the whorl of hair on his head dully, and after a long time her gaze turned to his fingers. She watched his slender fingers pull the shoelaces a few times, and then he directly freed her feet from the shoes, took off her socks, and held them gently.
When Liang Tan placed his feet on Cui Ling's hands, he realized that his feet looked so small and white, like a piece of soft scallion, forming a sharp contrast with Cui Ling's somewhat rough hands.
This strong contrast made her heart feel as if a feather was brushing against it, making her feel itchy. She couldn't help but curl up her toes and step back silently.
Cui Ling noticed her thoughts and grabbed her back in time. He then unscrewed the alcohol and applied it to the soles of her feet, gently circling them with his slender fingers.
The itch instantly moved from her heart to the soles of her feet. She groaned and tried to move away, but he grabbed her again: "Don't move, you need to cool down."
Liang Tan’s cheeks felt a little hot, not knowing if it was because of the fever. At the same time, he was silently thankful that he had a fever. Even though his face was red, it could be said to be caused by the high fever.
She watched him gently massaging the soles of her feet, and suddenly remembered that in her last life she had a fever, and a guy who loved sports cars had the same problem. He carried her to the hospital and took good care of her.
...Is it because they have the same face? Sometimes I even feel that he and the male protagonist of the previous world are actually the same person, otherwise why are even their gentleness so similar?
Those memories are all in her mind, as clear as if they happened yesterday. Although she had forgotten the original feelings, she still felt a throbbing sensation for a moment. Unfortunately, this throbbing sensation did not last long. The invisible petals on her wrist felt hot, and when she came to her senses, she no longer felt anything about the previous world.
When Liang Tan looked at Cui Ling again, he was already awake.
The worlds he had walked through were frozen and shattered. The male protagonist in the past had a perfect life, and there was no possibility of him appearing again. The person in front of him had his own ideals and ambitions. Although he had the same face as the male protagonist in the past, he was not them.
After Cui Ling finished massaging her, he looked up and met her slightly lost eyes.
Inexplicably, he didn't like the look in her eyes, and after a moment of silence, he asked, "What are you thinking about?"
"...Nothing," Liang Tan said. Seeing that he was about to pour alcohol into his palm again, he quickly took the alcohol and said, "I can do it myself."
Cui Ling did not refuse, but just looked at her quietly.
Liang Tan silently rubbed alcohol on his palms, and then found that the atmosphere became even more awkward.
She cleared her throat and made small talk: "Captain, why are you only done at this hour?"
"The fence surrounds the entire base, and it would be a huge undertaking to check every part one by one," Cui Ling replied.
Liang Tan frowned: "Can't we ask other people to help?"
"Ajun has already checked it once, and I'm checking it for the second time." Seeing that she could spill alcohol on the bed, Cui Ling immediately took it back and started massaging her again.
Liang Tan did not refuse this time. He sniffed and advised earnestly: "Ajun is such a serious person. Since he has already checked it, it means there is no problem. Why do you need to check it again?"
"Most of the people living in the base are ordinary people. They have no ability to fight zombies, so they must be completely isolated from danger," Cui Ling said, glancing at her. "The more we check, the more protection we have."
Liang Tan's lips moved slightly, and he sighed for a long time: "But you will be tired."
Perhaps because she was sick and weak, her voice was a little light, and the tail tone curled and scattered in the air, like a soft brush, suddenly brushing across Cui Ling's heart.
Cui Ling's eyes moved slightly, and the hand that was massaging her suddenly stopped. After a moment of silence, he continued the action just now: "I am the captain, and it is my responsibility to be responsible for them."
"Thank you for your hard work, Captain." Liang Tan began to feel sleepy after saying this.
Cui Ling wiped the excess alcohol from her palms, helped her lie down, and slowly said, "Go to sleep."
"You should go back too. I don't feel so hot anymore." Liang Tan said in a daze after covering himself with the quilt.
"I'll leave when your fever goes down."
Liang Tan let out a slight hum from his throat. He wanted to say something, but his illness was so severe that he could only fall asleep unwillingly.
Although she said she fell asleep, she was not sleeping soundly. Every time Cui Ling took her temperature, she could feel it. She wanted to persuade Cui Ling to go back many times, but she had thought of all the words, but could not say a word.
By dawn, her body temperature finally returned to normal. Cui Ling could no longer bear the burden and fell asleep on the edge of the bed.
The sunlight silently shone into the room, shining on the two sleeping people, casting a hazy light on their outlines.
Cui Ling didn't sleep for long before he was awakened by a knock on the door.
He frowned and opened his eyes. The first thing he did was to take out the thermometer and take the temperature of Liang Tan who was still sleeping.
The knocking continued for another minute, and finally stopped.
Just as he stopped, a male voice came: "Xiao Gu, I'm Wu Qiu, introduced by Deputy Captain Ai Li."
Cui Ling raised his eyes and glanced at Liang Tan, his fingers still pinching the other end of the thermometer to prevent her from moving around in her sleep and causing the temperature to be inaccurate.
The person outside the door introduced himself, hesitated for a moment and continued, "I know you are in there. You didn't open the door for me. Are you angry with me? I didn't mean to break the appointment yesterday. It's all the captain's fault for making trouble. The fence that had just been repaired actually needed to be reworked on a large scale. I had no choice but to continue working overtime."
The young man gritted his teeth when he mentioned Cui Ling. After calming down, he said patiently, "Xiao Gu, don't be angry with me. I'll treat you to a meal, okay? Although we haven't met much, I think you're a good match for me. I believe you think the same about me. It's fate that we can meet on a blind date. If you don't mind, how about we settle down?"
After saying this, he held his breath and waited confidently for the response from the people in the room.
While one of the people in the room was sleeping, the other picked up the thermometer and held it up to the sunlight carefully.
Thirty-six.5 degrees, no recurring fever.
Cui Ling relaxed his shoulders slightly, and just as he put away the thermometer, he heard the young man's voice again from outside -
"Xiao Gu, why don't you say anything? If you don't say anything, I'll take it as your agreement."
Cui Ling's eyes flashed with displeasure, like a beast whose territory had been invaded, with a dangerous aura all over his body. However, he quickly hid his aura and became calm again.
