The other party reacted quickly and grabbed her wrist accurately: "Ning Ying, it's me."

Qin Zhao didn't expect that Ning Ying was actually in his room. Seeing that she was sleeping soundly, he didn't dare to make any move. He just looked at her quietly. He didn't expect that he almost got an injection.

Ning Ying turned on the light and breathed a sigh of relief after confirming it was him: "I thought there was a thief in the house."

Seeing that her forehead was covered with sweat, Qin Zhao wiped his hands, picked up a bottle of mineral water, unscrewed it and handed it to her.

"There are soldiers guarding here, so there won't be any thieves."

Ning Ying drank some water to calm herself down, then took a look at Qin Zhao. She saw that he was covered in mud, with mud spots on his face. He looked like a clay sculpture, yet had an indescribable wildness to him.

"What's the situation on the dam?"

Qin Zhao's dark eyes suddenly sparkled: "Ning Ying, today I specially sent surveyors from the army to walk along the embankment and the mountain. As expected, all the water levels are rising, and the grass nests on the mountain are full of snakes."

“This is nature’s warning.”

"I have reported this matter to the army. If nothing unexpected happens, the army will send another batch of soldiers to resettle the victims."

Mobilizing the people to relocate, expanding several resettlement sites, and allowing factories in the disaster-hit areas to transfer personnel and equipment must all be completed before the end of the month. The upcoming flood prevention and disaster relief tasks are heavy and arduous.

Ning Ying sincerely felt the difficulty of the soldiers: "Captain Qin, thank you for your hard work."

He felt a little warm in his heart when she said this.

"By the way, bring me some samples. I'll go to the flood control purchasing team tomorrow."

Ning Ying immediately pulled out two thumb-high small bottles from the suitcase.

There was a 'Ning Ji Snake Venom Cream' logo on the outside. After unscrewing the lid, there was a green cream inside, which also gave off a strong medicinal smell.

"Ningji? Did you make it yourself?"

"The formula was passed down from our ancestors in the Ning family. Although it is processed by a factory, all the processes are in compliance with regulations and the trademark has also been registered."

In fact, she only started thinking about these things when she saw the newspaper about flood prevention in Shaanxi City. Gu Jin was responsible for searching for trademarks and finding processing factories, and she was responsible for preparing the prescriptions and then packing and sending them over.

It's a pity that she didn't have enough money and no qualifications, so she naturally couldn't set up a pharmaceutical factory. Time waits for no one, so she could only do processing on behalf of others and have a portion of the profits taken away from her.

But one has to take things one bite at a time and do things slowly. One day she will own her own pharmaceutical factory.

"You also know that military supplies and medicines are strictly checked. I think I can give you definite information in two or three days. Take a rest first. I'm leaving now."

Qin Zhao turned around and walked away with his raincoat.

There were still lightning and thunder outside. Ning Ying drank a bottle of water and felt the urge to urinate, so she picked up the flashlight on the table and went to the toilet.

The conditions at the resettlement site are simple. The bathroom and toilet are shared, and you have to walk about a hundred meters to get to them.

When Ning Ying walked out of the room, she saw a figure lying in the hall with only a layer of cardboard underneath him.

He seemed to be worried about affecting everyone's entry and exit, so he deliberately chose a location close to the wall. He also hung his raincoat on the door to avoid dirtying the ground.

When he turned over, Ning Ying saw his face clearly and her breath suddenly stopped: "Qin Zhao?"

Qin Zhao stood up immediately after hearing her voice. Seeing the flashlight in her hand, he knew that she was going to the public toilet. He put on his shoes and said, "It's still raining outside. I'll take you there."

He took the raincoat off the door and put it directly on Ning Ying. In order to prevent rain from seeping in, he even tightened the drawstring on the hat.

"You don't want to wear it?"

"I'm already wet, so it doesn't matter whether I wear anything or not. Besides, no soldier has a weak body, so how can he withstand this little wind and rain?"

He took Ning Ying's flashlight and led the way for her.

Ning Ying looked at him, who was soaked all over, with indescribable emotions surging in her heart.

When they reached the public restroom, he returned the flashlight to her: "Be careful where you step, and let me know if anything happens."

This is the foot of the mountain, and you never know what small animals might get in.

Ning Ying took the flashlight and nodded.

After she finished using the toilet, she walked out of the public toilet and didn't see Qin Zhao, so she thought he had left.

Who would have thought that just after taking a few steps out, I saw him placing stones in puddles in the heavy rain.

"Come here on the stones, so your shoes won't get wet."

In fact, the best way is to carry her over, but Qin Zhao knows that Ning Ying will definitely resist.

Looking at the figure wading through the puddles in front of her and bending over to throw stones for her to step on, Ning Ying's heart felt moist.

Whether in her past life or her future life, she had never had a proper relationship, nor had she been cherished by any man.

It seemed as if something had cracked in her heart and was faintly breaking out of the ground.

After returning to the resettlement site, Qin Zhao helped her put away her raincoat: "Go to bed, it's getting late."

Ning Ying looked at him, his whole body was wet, and his feet were filled with mud soup, and she immediately felt pity for him.

"How about...you stay at my place for one night."

She guessed that there were no more rooms at the resettlement site, so he slept in the hall.

Even if one is in good health, one will catch a cold if sleeping in such a place. Besides, the other person saved her and helped her find Gu Jin, so she must repay this favor.

Qin Zhao frowned and said, "This is not very convenient."

"I am a girl and I don't care, so why are you a grown man hesitating? Are you going to leave or not?"

Qin Zhao calmly pressed the corners of his lips and said, "Okay, I'll ask the staff for two more quilts."

Although the room is small, there are quilts as needed.

Qin Zhao went to negotiate with the person on duty, and Ning Ying stood by and waited.

The staff member was already familiar with Qin Zhao and winked at him: "I was wondering why you refused to squeeze in with me in the duty room. It turns out you did it to make your sister-in-law feel bad."

Qin Zhao took the quilt and made a mouth-locking gesture towards him.

After they returned to the room, he took the washbasin and soap and walked out. Ning Ying stopped him and asked, "Where are you going so late?"

"Go take a shower. I can't sleep when I'm dirty and smelly."

In fact, he often fell asleep rolling in mud on the dam, but he always had to pay attention to his image in front of the people he cared about, so as not to lose points.

After he left, Ning Ying realized that the bathhouse was already closed at this time.

The bathhouse was just at the east end of the resettlement site, and Ning Ying immediately chased after him.

When she followed him, she saw Qin Zhao taking off his shirt, filling a bucket of water from the faucet outside the bathhouse, and pouring it directly over his head.

The water rushed across his angular face, poured down his broad shoulders, and flowed through his tight skin, revealing his broad shoulders, narrow waist, and strong long legs.

Ning Ying's ears suddenly turned red, and she turned around to leave. Unexpectedly, her foot slipped and she fell to the ground with a thud.

At this moment, the person who was enjoying a cold shower also turned his head and looked over, his heroic eyebrows raised immediately.
