In the end, Ren Yulan decided to move out of room 719 and chose to live with He Ruorui next to the dormitory where a few boys had settled. They all thought it would feel safer.
"I've collected food from the entire dormitory building with Gu Yao before. Most of the food is stored in room 720 next door. You just need to get it yourself," Li Yanqian said. She wasn't interested in managing the supplies of the entire floor and didn't plan to stay there for long.
"Thanks," Zhou Kairui, already hungry and lightheaded, quickly expressed his gratitude and rushed off to find something to eat.
[Ah, the food is so precious, yet Li Yanqian handed it over so easily.]
[There's no other choice. She can only fit ten items in her backpack.]
[These people are so lucky. They don't even have to scavenge for food themselves.]
[Ren Yulan is stuffing chocolates into her pockets, I saw it!!]
[...]
Inside room 719, Guo Rongrong also felt uneasy. The students had likely been hungry for a long time and ate a lot of food in one meal. She didn't want to deprive others of food, but she feared their supplies wouldn't last for more than a few days.
"When I drove the small blue truck to rescue people, I found a car parked behind the canteen with the key still inside," Li Yanqian said while making the bed.
Guo Rongrong's eyes lit up, but then dimmed again. Even if there was a car, where would they go?
"Teacher Guo, if you're willing to join me, please trust me and don't worry about where we're going," Li Yanqian said, planning to head to Taoli, although she didn't intend to make a public announcement.
"I believe in you." Among these people, Guo Romgrong only knew Li Yanqian and Gu Yao well. She didn't know what the others thought of her.
In their eyes, pregnant women were burdens, regardless of any emergency.
But Li Yanqian never seemed to perceive any difference between herself and regular people, which touched Guo Rongrong deeply.
In the evening, Chen Ming and Zheng Yu came to the door of room 719 and knocked.
"Sorry, we didn't mean to interrupt. We just wanted to express our gratitude," Chen Ming said.
"You already thanked us earlier today. Don't be so polite. We're all Nancheng University alumni," Li Yanqian said. Seeing several people constantly peering at the two beds, she simply stepped aside. Fu Ying and Gu Yao were still asleep, but their condition had visibly improved.
"Do people with fevers really not turn into zombies?" Zhou Kairui couldn't help but ask.
"I don't know, but I want to save them." Li Yanqian replied.
"We also hope your friends recover. But if you ever encounter any danger, you can come and ask us for help. After all, you and Teacher Guo saved our lives." Chen Ming said. That was their intention as well.
"Okay, then I'll thank you in advance." Li Yanqian smiled faintly.
Zhang Chengguang was a little stunned when he saw Li Yanqian's refreshing and sweet smile. In his memory, Ren Yulan had always said that Li Yanqian was a gold digger and a woman who chased after money. Now he realized that his ex-girlfriend must have been jealous of the girl in front of him...
That night, Li Yanqian suddenly opened her eyes while sleeping.
She sat up and looked around strangely, then walked to the dormitory window. What had happened to the sense of crisis she had felt just now?
Why did she feel like danger was lurking nearby? Could it be that she had a nightmare and forgot about it?
