Chapter Index

    “Sister Li, I’ve written down all three of your phone numbers. Remember to keep in touch after we get out of here…” Jiang Yuan solemnly folded the sticky note with the three numbers, put it in her coat pocket, and finally patted it, letting out a long breath, as if she had done something important.

    In fact, friendships between girls often start very suddenly, but if their personalities are compatible, they will last a long time. Relationships like the one between Chen Li and the others, where they have gone through life and death together several times, would basically have no chance to develop in peaceful times. Therefore, they naturally valued it more than ordinary friendships. It would be a pity if they went their separate ways and completely lost contact after the disaster ended. So, after making an agreement, even if they couldn’t meet in the same city due to work and life, they would keep in touch often.

    For girls, it’s already very difficult to make even one friend with whom they’ve shared life-threatening experiences in their lifetime. It’s even rarer for people like them to act as each other’s most trusted support and protect each other for a long period. Therefore, everyone agreed to exchange contact information, and after carefully storing each other’s information, they sat around a bed and chatted, mainly about how to make a living before Qingshui City fully restored order.

    “I believe that after this incident, ordinary people will be more aware of the importance of a healthy physique. Once more people start exercising, the personal training industry I’m in will become even more prosperous, so I’m not worried about my future livelihood at all. I can gradually replace the lost certificates and cards, and quickly get back on track.” Chen Li crossed her arms and spoke with confidence about her future life plans.

    “It’s pretty much the same for me. People who do street workouts and parkour don’t give up easily. People who have had near-death experiences probably realize that street workouts are actually a good form of self-defense, and can save you in a crisis. I don’t know about others, but the reason I was able to persevere until I was rescued during this long period of time was because I relied on my physical agility to avoid the attacks of those infected. Otherwise, I’d probably be lying in a body bag like those corpses being processed.” Leng Dongchi nodded, agreeing with Chen Li’s view.

    “You guys are lucky. You either have careers that won’t be eliminated or you’re very flexible. Even if the industry declines, you can protect yourselves and withdraw completely. As for my job, if the hospital is gone, I’ll be unemployed too. Although I should be able to look and try here, nurse positions in general hospitals are fixed. It’s very difficult for vacancies to appear unless there are sudden transfers in the upper and middle levels or resignations at the bottom. Moreover, our salaries weren’t high to begin with, and I don’t have enough savings like you to cope with this period of unemployment. To be honest, I don’t know what to do next after leaving here…” Liu Qingyu had been mostly silent during the time she spent with everyone. This time, she said so much at once, probably because she was really worried about her future livelihood and didn’t know what to do. That’s why she didn’t hide her worries and revealed everything on her mind.

    “If it really doesn’t work out, you can work as a streamer with me for a while. The barrier to entry is low, and with me guiding you, you don’t have to worry about understanding anything. Although it’s not a very high-end profession, it’s enough to support yourself.” Jiang Yuan sincerely suggested, seeing that Liu Qingyu was really in a difficult situation.

    “Excuse me… Is Miss Chen Li here?” Just as the group was intently discussing their future prospects, a young man in a black suit knocked on the half-open hospital door and politely asked.

    “Huh?… Who are you?” Chen Li looked up at the man by the door, her head full of question marks, not understanding why a man would be looking for her. Leng Dongchi beside her, however, had a solemn expression, shedding her casual posture from just now and straightening her back, waiting for the man to continue.

    “Hello, are you Miss Chen? Here’s a letter for you, please check it.” Without being invited, the man did not step into the ward, but reached out and handed the letter to the inside.

    A letter? What year is it, why is someone still using such an old-fashioned way of contacting people? The people in the ward exchanged glances, all seeing the doubt in each other’s eyes.

    Leng Dongchi exchanged a look with Chen Li, and Chen Li nodded. She jumped out of bed and walked towards the man to receive the letter. Since the other party said it was for Chen Li, she didn’t take it upon herself to open it, but politely and cautiously thanked the man before turning around and returning to Chen Li’s side.

    The man, seeing that the letter had been delivered to the intended recipient, bowed slightly to the group and left without saying anything else.

    Here, Chen Li felt that she had not done anything wrong, and there were no secrets she couldn’t reveal, so she directly opened the envelope in front of the three of them and started reading.

    It wasn’t until she saw the two familiar names at the end of the letter that she couldn’t help but laugh. Those two guys are really good at creating trouble and being so mysterious.

    Chen Li laughed and threw the letter to the other three, saying, “Take a look, and you’ll know why I’m laughing after you’re done.”
