Chapter 334 - 270: Lockdown!!_3
The whole body is soft, only the mouth is hard!
Huang Tianxuan rolled her eyes in her heart, still wanting to comfort a bit, but when she heard Wu Wenyue’s next words, she couldn’t stay calm.
"So, Sister Xuan, don’t get me wrong, we won’t break up. If we did, where would Manning and I find another dog man with whom we have telepathy? Or break up to let you have an advantage?"
"Telepathy..." Huang Tianxuan was slightly stunned.
"Could he have it with you too?"
Huang Tianxuan pursed her lips, her eyes wandering, "It must be a coincidence that he guessed right."
Wu Wenyue’s smile slightly faded, and she cursed under her breath, sniffed and used a tissue on the table to wipe her tears: "Could it be related to that dream?"
Huang Tianxuan pondered for a while, lightly shook her head: "There is such magic in the dream, but without magical power to support it, he couldn’t possibly use it."
Wu Wenyue dried her tears, crumpled up the tissue and threw it away, suddenly laughed: "He gave you that medicine too, right? Maybe this ability was taught to him by the immortal who gave him the elixir?"
Huang Tianxuan smiled and nodded slightly: "He has a lot of secrets, very magical. Sometimes I really think he’s like a web novel protagonist with a golden finger, everything is great, but unfortunately, he doesn’t act human."
"For this kind of inhuman beast, Sister Xuan, you should stay far away."
Wu Wenyue earnestly: "Don’t ruin yourself out of curiosity. You’re beautiful, wealthy, and highly educated. You could find any kind of man, like some domineering president, second-generation rich, male celebrity, eighteen-year-old fresh meat... All better than this beast, you get what I mean, right?"
Huang Tianxuan agreed with a hum, then unexpectedly started advising Wu Wenyue: "Yueyue, you see it very clearly, so why accompany Manning in messing around with him? Li Peifeng is just a wolf. No matter how good you treat him, you can’t satisfy him. The relationship among you three is doomed to have no result."
"Think about it. How will your parents react when they find out about your relationship? They will surely try every way to stop you, parents’ worries and concerns, friends’ strange looks..."
As she spoke, Huang Tianxuan sighed empathetically: "You can imagine these consequences. I think Yueyue, you should end it with Peifeng soon, it’s necessary damage control. While you’re still young, don’t take this wrong path to the end."
Wu Wenyue’s eyes were still slightly red, but her mood had calmed down. Surprisingly, she picked up a bowl and chopsticks to start eating, listening until the end, and mumbled while eating: "You don’t need to worry about this, Sister Xuan. Like you said, we are still young, in the last stretch of youth. We have some time to waste. So, when we’re tired of playing with him, that’s when we’ll dump him."
"But you, Sister Xuan, hurry up and find a proper man, keep your distance from Li Peifeng, and don’t waste time on him!"
The two girls schemed against each other, advised each other, and after a few sentences, they both knowingly gave up and quietly ate.
You understand, I understand, we all get it, no need to keep talking...
But in the blink of an eye, four or five minutes passed, Wu Wenyue felt a bit uneasy: "Why isn’t he back yet? Sending someone to the community entrance isn’t enough, did he chase to their home?"
"He shouldn’t have, Old Zhao wouldn’t let him in the car."
Huang Tianxuan was puzzled too, suddenly heard what seemed like a broadcast from outside the window, and her face changed dramatically!
...
Five minutes ago, in the elevator.
Zhao Qingge saw Li Peifeng about to step in, she immediately pressed the door close button, but the elevator door closed slowly, and Li Peifeng still got in.
"No need to see me off!" Zhao Qingge stepped back two steps, stood in the corner, her gaze vigilant: "Keep your distance!"
Li Peifeng used the [Telepathy] skill, sensing the mood of the guide, was also at a loss, not knowing what to say.
The elevator fell silent, only the continuous and steady hum of the machine remained.
Li Peifeng understood in his heart, this time, Zhao Qingge might really be determined to cut ties with him!
"If you bother me again, I’ll get a new advisor, and resign early."
Zhao Qingge’s tone was calm: "Actually, you said something right, life is short, so short we can’t turn back. At my age, I really don’t have time to play that horror game with you, I want to live my own life."
Li Peifeng sighed: "I support you, don’t worry... If you really don’t want to see me, I’ll disappear from your sight."
In just a few words, the elevator quickly descended to the ground floor.
"Don’t see me off!"
Zhao Qingge left one last sentence, and hurried out.
"It’s dark, I’ll walk you to the community gate."
Li Peifeng also followed along, thinking about what he should say or do during this stretch to salvage the situation.
But after following for about two hundred meters, almost reaching the community gate, he still hadn’t come up with anything.
Zhao Qingge’s attitude was clear, striding forward. Li Peifeng felt that if he tried to hold her hand and forcibly stop her, he would probably get slapped. Saying any sweet words wouldn’t make the other party change her mind because this is a principled issue.
Still remembering in the dream, Zhao Qingge was so angry at Li Peifeng’s "multiple wives" that she wanted to destroy the world. Although she reluctantly agreed in the end, back in reality, even if Li Peifeng’s eloquence made the sky rain flowers, she wouldn’t accept Li’s wishful thinking.
No way, but not completely without hope!
"If I could promise unwavering loyalty, I might reconcile with the guide."
Li Peifeng thought helplessly, because that clearly wasn’t possible, making a promise destined to be broken was meaningless. If he said it, Zhao Qingge would probably drag him back upstairs to say it again in front of Wu Wenyue and Huang Tianxuan.
So now he could only wait, wait for Zhao Qingge’s heart to soften, and move when the opportunity presented itself!
...
"What’s going on?"
"Why is the community gate blocked?"
"A car crash?"
"Why aren’t you moving, car in front?!"
"It’s not me, the barrier won’t go up!"
Rounding a corner, they came in front of the community gate, four or five cars were blocked here, unable to get out. There was also a crowd at the pedestrian exit, gathered at the guardroom’s door, discussing.
"The barrier’s broken, and the pedestrian electronic gate too? The buttons don’t work!"
"Is it a power outage?"
The noise was loud, Zhao Qingge slowed her steps until she stopped. Li Peifeng, who had been following behind, finally stood side by side with her, glanced around at the situation, and looked puzzled: "What happened?"
"Sigh~~ oh~~ sigh~~ oh~~"
Zhao Qingge didn’t speak, looking at the road across from the community gate. There was her new energy BMW, and in the back parking space, two more ambulances had just stopped, their sirens still blaring, and flashing alarm lights dazzling in the night.
"Bang~"
The two ambulance doors were quickly pulled open, eight or nine people in full protective gear ’big whites’ stepped out in succession, some empty-handed, some carrying large white boxes, crossed the road, and quickly walked towards the Jade District gate.
And in the guardroom, several uniformed police officers wearing masks, along with those familiar security guards, came out of the room, shouting loudly.
"Everyone wear a mask, keep your distance, stand one meter apart, don’t block the way!"
"Cars wanting to leave, turn back, go home!"
The chaotic crowd, though still murmuring, had significantly quieter voices, and their distances from each other subconsciously became much wider.
"Residents, please quiet down!!"
One of the police officers, with shoulder ranks of two stripes and two flowers, wearing white gloves and holding a loudspeaker, spoke in very standard Mandarin: "This afternoon, a person in Jade District was found to have tested positive for nucleic acid, so now, Jade District is under a lockdown, only entry allowed, no exit. Please return home and wait for the new round of nucleic acid testing."
"If visiting or with relatives, non-Jade District individuals, please stay at friends’ houses temporarily for quarantine..."
"I cannot confirm the unseal time, but during the lockdown, please be assured about your living supplies; vegetables and rice will be delivered tomorrow, definitely sufficient, ensuring normal life for everyone..."
Zhao Qingge quietly stood in place, seemingly listening to the police officer’s announcement along with everyone, but her gaze was very complicated.
A moment later, she glanced at Li Peifeng beside her, her eyes filled with anger: "Why are you covering your mouth? Laughing? What’s so funny?!!"
Li Peifeng covered his mouth, speaking in a muffled, strange tone: "I’m not! I’m not laughing, I just forgot my mask when rushing out!"
