Chapter 181: Chapter One Hundred and Eighty-One: Life Saver
After the family heard this, how could they not be concerned?!
Xia Mufei was actually Xiao Jin’s lifesaver!
What’s more miraculous is that Xiao Jin had encountered her lifesaver again!
“Xiao Jin, rest assured, we will all take good care of him,” Lin Tianzhen said.
It’s no wonder Xiao Jin looked out of sorts on her way back this morning.
Upon hearing this, Lin Yunguo brought out lots of food, including marinated eggs and meats which he had chilled in a big bowl inside the well water, and he had already wrapped them up nicely. Even if given away, they wouldn’t raise too much suspicion.
“Maybe we shouldn’t be so obvious just yet? It’s better to take it slow. The priority now is to keep him away from his girlfriend,” Mrs. Su said.
Su Jin also feared that too overt actions by the family might give Xia Mufei the wrong idea. If the Earth Element User Lin Cheng happened to encounter him in trouble, it would be good enough to lend a helping hand.
“Girl, this is karma, but for you, it’s good karma, and it should yield good results,” Nie Qing said.
Although Nie Qing was not someone from a Taoist sect, he understood some of these concepts of cause and effect. These were matters of fate.“There definitely will be good results. He saved our Xiao Jin; he is a benefactor to our entire family,” Su Xiangzhe said.
Mrs. Su Lin Tianhui’s eyes were already red. Although Su Jin did not go into details about her rescue, Mrs. Su guessed it must have been an unpleasant memory; since her daughter didn’t want to speak of it, she refrained from asking further. However, this debt of gratitude must be repaid.
“His girlfriend, is it? Don’t worry, starting tomorrow, I won’t let another woman appear by his side!” Lin Cheng said excitedly.
“Maybe we shouldn’t go that far…”
Su Jin didn’t know what to say. What if her uncle interfered with a suitable romance for that person?
“Su Jin, don’t worry, from now on whenever I see him, I will treat him as a buddy,” Lin Xiuyuan said.
He admired the man named Xia Mufei, as he himself could not imagine sacrificing so much for a stranger.
“Alright, let’s not talk about him anymore. Mom, I’ll take you to the medical room tomorrow,” Su Jin said.
She was worried that if they continued, her husband would start feeling upset again, so she quickly changed the subject.
Liang Jiuqing had visited in the afternoon and mentioned that a small medical team was starting to form. Although Xu Mingzhi was still temporarily unable to come from the refuge, with recent injuries and even zombie attacks during the base construction, the formation of a medical team had become necessary.
To the family’s surprise, the person in charge of this team turned out to be Yao Yi!
But Liang Jiuqing had mentioned his capabilities. The day before yesterday, a man impaled by a steel rod in his abdomen whom everyone thought was a goner was saved by Yao Yi. Moreover, the save was performed on the side of the road without proper medical facilities, using only what was available in his medical bag to rescue a person on the brink of death.
Later, Liang Jiuhui went to meet him specifically and decided to appoint him as the head of the temporary medical team.
Nobody expected this. Had that germaphobe been cured of his germophobia?
In any case, they would first take Lin Tianhui for a visit tomorrow, and if a suitable opportunity arose, they could also start training Mrs. Su in her Special Ability early.
Lin Tianhui was of course very happy, if she could not only help others but also improve her own strength, this would really be killing two birds with one stone.
The next day, when Su Jin went to find Yao Yi, it so happened that Liang Jiuhui was also there, discussing how to distribute the medical team. Due to the construction of the base’s walls, Liang Jiuhui planned to start from both ends of the base at the same time. Since both ends were very far apart, the medical team also needed to be divided into at least two groups.
When Yao Yi learned that Mrs. Su was intending to join, he was overjoyed. He knew that healers were very important in a medical team. They only had two Healing Element Ability Users, who were busy to the point of exhaustion every day. If Mrs. Su could join, it would greatly reduce their pressure.
Liang Jiuhui, of course, was extremely welcoming, but he had not anticipated that in Su Jin’s team, there would actually be a Healing Element Ability User! And this person was Su Jin’s mother; he had always been unaware of the number of Special Ability Users in Su Jin and Lu Hao’s team. It now appeared they truly had hidden dragons and crouching tigers.
If the awakening of Special Ability Users had certain odds, then the odds for the awakening of Healing Element Ability Users were even lower. Before, in the Refuge, out of so many people, the number of Healing Element Ability Users had always been in single digits, not even reaching ten. So now, the addition of Mrs. Su, Lin Tianhui, was not just surprising for base construction but a happy surprise for them as well.
“Aunt Lin, can you start working today?” Yao Yi asked eagerly.
“Sure, I’m ready any time!”
Lin Tianhui did not expect to start working on the very day she became a doctor.
Su Jin also did not anticipate things would go so smoothly, and Yao Yi was already impatient to take Lin Tianhui to the scene.
Liang Jiuhui had to attend a mobilization meeting later, so he was preparing to leave. Before he left, he asked Su Jin, “I heard you guys are missing a printer?”
“Ah, yes.” Su Jin did not expect Liang Jiuhui to bring up this matter.
However, after hearing this, Liang Jiuhui just nodded and left the medical room.
Su Jin shrugged, not expecting that she would have to return alone. She stepped out of the medical room, took a deep breath of the not-so-clean air in the villa area, and headed towards Guo Yang’s shop.
The store was having a trial opening today. The reason it was a trial opening was that they had realized they still hadn’t made a sign for the store until Mao Zhihang raised the issue that morning. The store was about to open, yet it didn’t even have a sign, so it could only be considered a trial opening.
Their store was in a prominent location, right at the corner of the villa area. From afar, Su Jin saw Lu Hao hanging something above the storefront.
Gradually, Su Jin made out what Lu Hao had in his hands. It was a red sign, but it looked somehow familiar?
As Su Jin approached, she could clearly see the writing on the sign: Heart Talk Convenience Store.
…
Wasn’t this the sign from the convenience store that Guo Yang had collected previously in the villa area?
This was acceptable?
Guo Yang, who was instructing Lu Hao to hang the sign, saw Su Jin returning and ran down excitedly to her, “How about it, little sis? Isn’t the sign we found eye-catching?!”
“But this is the sign for a convenience store…”
Su Jin was still fixated on the idea of a trading post, which sounded very grand. But now, this convenience store sign picked up from the roadside, what was that about?
“Aw, it’s the same thing, look at this stylish bright red, how eye-catching, right?”
Guo Yang seemed quite pleased with the freely acquired sign.
