Chapter 46 - 46: Lin Sijia
The group was quiet, but the private chat became lively.
Ye Xingchen washed his hands and took off his apron. He fished out a bowl of tomato beef noodles with more ingredients than noodles and placed it on the dining table. He poured himself a cup of coke before picking up his phone to check the private messages that popped up.
Unlike in the group, there were not many people scolding him in the private chat. Instead, they were all begging him.
Most of the messages were sent by women, and there were even some with families and children.
“Xingchen, please save me and my baby. Just give us five packets of instant noodles. I don’t want much.”
“Brother Xingchen, 1, I’m a freshman this year. I know everything and I’m very obedient. Can you let me stay in your house?”
“Little Ye, 1 really had no choice but to come and beg you. Compared to those little girls, I know more and 1 know how to take care of people. No matter what, you need a woman to serve you by your side.”
They were all smart people. They had long realized that money seemed to have lost its ability to buy at this time. They all wanted to use themselves as bargaining chips.
However, Ye Xingchen just kept looking at the private messages one after another. He just treated them as a show to go with his meal.
There were also a small number of male tenants who came to call Ye Xingchen their brother. There were even some older ones who came to scold Ye Xingchen.
After looking at it for a long time, he even felt a little bored.
Ye Xingchen finished the bowl of noodles and wiped his mouth. He ran to the top floor and sat by the window to watch the snow.
Half a month had passed, but the heavy snow still showed no signs of stopping.
Ye Xingchen still had some impression of his previous life. After a month of snow, it probably drowned everything below the third floor. Fortunately, his villa was three and a half stories high at that time, and he could still enter and exit through the top floor. Otherwise, the entire house might have been buried alive by the snow.
Judging by the time, if it was the same as in the previous life, then this snow would probably last for another half a month.
Half a month later, more than half of the creatures in the world would be dead. By then, only half of the residents in this community would be left.
Ye Xingchen thought about it. When that time came, maybe he could go out and take a look.
After all, although he had plenty of supplies, his life was long. If he was locked up in this house every day, he was afraid that he would start to have psychological problems.
If he wanted to get some fresh air, he had to make sure that he was safe after he went out. This was probably not something that could be achieved in a short period of time. Ye Xingchen sighed. He really wanted to kill all the owners in the community. Then he would definitely be safe.
He looked at the gray sky for a while and picked up his phone again. He decided to go through the news that he hadn’t finished reading just now. He had no choice. There weren’t so many entertainment measures now. He would get tired of watching too many movies, novels, and variety shows. It was more interesting to watch these clowns change their tricks every day.
As he scrolled down, Ye Xingchen suddenly saw an unexpected person, Lin Sijia.
“Mr. Ye, it’s like this. Recently, my home’s food and medicine have almost been exhausted. 1 hope you can provide me with some help. As a repayment, I will provide you with medical assistance within my ability.”
“Lin Sijia?”
Ye Xingchen’s eyes flickered, and the woman’s appearance immediately appeared in front of him.
She didn’t have a high sense of presence and always wore a pair of thick glasses. She didn’t usually dress up, but Ye Xingchen’s deepest impression of her was her figure.
He remembered that one day, when he came back, he happened to pass by the garbage sorting station at the entrance of the community. He also happened to bump into Lin Sijia, who was wearing pajamas and coming out to throw garbage.
It was also at that time that Ye Xingchen realized that Lin Sijia was actually very good-looking. Even her figure was very impressive. It was just that she usually did not dress up, as if she was deliberately hiding her presence.
However, at that time, Ye Xingchen only wanted to chase after Chen Rou’er. Now that he thought about it, Lin Sijia was actually more attractive than Chen Rou’er.
“As expected of a doctor. She knows what everyone lacks the most at a time like this. She also knows what she’s good at and knows how to exchange.”
Ye Xingchen admired Lin Sijia’s attitude. She wasn’t like other women who only knew how to act pitifully. Moreover, she had entered the No.i School for an internship, which meant that even her professors and instructors recognized her skills.
Although Ye Xingchen had prepared an endless supply of medicine, he did not deny that many illnesses could not be solved by simply taking a few pills.
Even if he didn’t go out, he couldn’t guarantee that he wouldn’t get hurt at home. What if he accidentally cut his hand while cutting vegetables?
Indeed, if he had a doctor with superb medical skills by his side, it would undoubtedly greatly increase his survival rate.
More importantly, Ye Xingchen remembered that in his previous life, Lin Sijia had died earlier than him.
If he remembered correctly, she seemed to have been killed and eaten by a famished family when she was treating a patient.
Although it was unfortunate, Lin Sijia was still willing to make a house call at that time. That meant that she was different from those heartless people.
He was very tempted, but Ye Xingchen did not agree immediately.
There was no reason other than that he was truly afraid of death.
Lin Sijia was good, but Ye Xingchen didn’t have much interaction with her, so he didn’t know what kind of person she was. But if he let her in based on his own guess, she might become a threat at any time.
Besides, with his current wealth, why would he worry about not being able to find a good doctor and a good woman?
He took the phone. “I’m very healthy now. I don’t need a doctor for the time being. But you’re right. 1 do have a lot of medicine and food at home.”
“If you want to make this deal with me, then you have to give me something that is useful to me now.”
There was a long silence on the other side. Ye Xingchen was not in a hurry. He drank his Coke and waited with his legs crossed.
“Can we just treat it as an advance payment? I-I really have no other choice.”
Lin Sijia really had no other choice. The way she earned food was to make house calls, but house calls also required medicine.
She had used up the last of her anti-inflammatory medicine for Zhang Peng and the others. Now, she only had two or three bottles of frozen-solid alcohol, a roll of gauze, and a small amount of cotton left.
Without medicine, she did not even have a way to earn food.
Zhang Yi didn’t add her as a friend online, so she had no choice but to bite the bullet and try Ye Xingchen’s side.
Ye Xingchen thought for a moment and said, “I can give you food and medicine, but you have to do something for me..”
