On the nearby beach, grass pavilions swayed gently, green trees danced in the breeze, and gentle waves lapped at the shore. The picturesque lake and lush greenery were all within Lin Yu and Xiao Qiang's view as they embraced each other happily, smiles of contentment gracing their lips.
The television news reported on a brutal incident involving a large-scale massacre of V2 Zombie Virus carriers at a certain hospital, while simultaneously covering a shooting incident involving V2 Zombie Virus carriers at a small clinic elsewhere.
Lin Yu held Xiao Qiang tightly. "You can't go out anymore," she said, her voice filled with concern as she nestled her head against his arm.
"Okay, I promise you," he replied, their hands intertwined as they exchanged smiles. "We still need to tidy up."
"M said she would come help me later."
"What should I do then?"
"You don't have to do anything; just play a couple of rounds with Luo Wei."
"Can he play chess?"
"Of course."
M and Luo Wei arrived, filling the somewhat empty room with laughter and joy that had been absent for a while. Xiao Qiang and Luo Wei sat down to play chess while Lin Yu and M went to tidy up the bedroom.
Lin Yu placed all the Vaccine Proteins into a specially designed portable smart safe. M helped her straighten the bed, expertly smoothing out the sheets and arranging the pillows. As she plugged in an electrical outlet, M smiled gently and said, "Xiao Qiang is lucky to have such a talented wife like you."
Lin Yu smiled as she finished with the outlet and stood up. "Actually, it's not like that. I'm not as perfect as you say; I have my temper too. I lost my cool with him that day."
"Don't be so defensive; have you forgotten what I do?" M replied with a confident smile.
"Did you know that writers are good at noticing details?" Lin Yu smiled modestly. "If you saw me as a tough girl, you'd definitely be surprised."
"What does that look like? Can you tell me?" M seemed intrigued, her eyes sparkling as she relentlessly pursued Lin Yu for an answer.
Lin Yu made an exaggerated gesture, "Ah, kill~ kill!" Standing straight, he looked at the laughing M and said, "Actually, I haven't had my memories erased. Jin Chen General said in Tomorrow's Battle that my memories are a lifetime of glory and must be retained."
"That's quite the tough guy attitude," M replied with a smile. "What do those monsters look like? I'm planning to write my next book about Tomorrow's Battle."
"You have that in mind?" Lin Yu was surprised. The two sat side by side on the edge of the bed, and she casually swung her legs while continuing to chat. "Telling you is one thing; writing can make me appear a bit gentler."
"Wrong. I like tough guys, especially among us women. The status of women in ancient society varied greatly with the times. To put it simply, the status of women reflects the level of civilization and modernization of a country."
"I didn't realize you knew quite a bit about this."
"There's also something to say about the husband-wife dynamic; do you want to hear?"
"Sure, go ahead."
"The relationship between husband and wife belongs to two different classifications of gender. Even within these two classifications, when brought together under specific rules, they are oppositional in their tedious shared life. This opposition is particularly evident in the comparison of male and female status, which has historical roots. As far back as the Paleolithic era, the foundation of male superiority and female subordination stemmed from mutual recognition of contributions and gains. At that time, people primarily gathered wild plant seeds, fruits, leaves, roots, and stems for food. However, humans are primarily high-intelligence animals that need to eat meat. Thus, stronger-bodied men would go out hunting—a risky endeavor with uncertain outcomes—while women stayed home to care for children, wash clothes, and cook..."
"Are you talking about Ancient Times?"
"Yes, how did you know about Ancient Times?" M was surprised that Lin Yu interrupted her and mentioned that term.
Lin Yu opened his mouth, his smile faltering as he quickly changed the subject. "Shall we go see what those two are up to?"
Luo Wei was on the phone, embodying a dual nature. He had a unique approach to business, and his skills in navigating social interactions were well-known. His thriving career was closely tied to his adeptness in dealing with people.
M and Lin Yu cautiously approached the sofa, glancing at an unfinished chess game. They then looked at Luo Wei, who seemed very angry, shouting, "Damn it, stop with this nonsense! Am I your manager? Quit whining; I really don’t understand what you’re trying to do. You know better than I do! I’ll say it again, damn it!"
"Is he okay?" Lin Yu whispered.
"Nothing serious, just some trivial matters from the business world," M replied, dramatically picking up a chess piece and exclaiming, "Checkmate!"
"Cheating isn’t good," Xiao Qiang said as she moved her cannon directly toward the king.
"Ah ha, can I take that back?"
Luo Wei finished his call and walked over, picking up the chess piece M had just used. "Woman! Keep your eyes on the bigger picture; let me show you how it's done." He glanced at Xiao Qiang and asked, "Did I scare you just now?"
"No, but your angry face is quite amusing; I like it."
"Oh really? Then should we live together for a while?"
"That's not a bad suggestion," Xiao Qiang replied with a smile as she began to tidy up the chessboard, agreeing with Luo Wei's words.
"Good idea," Lin Yu chimed in, serving freshly brewed coffee to everyone.
M elegantly lifted his coffee cup, took a sip, smiled, and nodded. "Perfect for gathering inspiration for my next book. Tomorrow, I'll go out with Luo Wei; what are your plans?"
Lin Yu brought his coffee cup to his lips, catching the bitter aroma of the brew. He raised an eyebrow slightly and said, "No way; Xiao Qiang can't go out. I still have to work."
"That's too bad," M's disappointed expression was evident.
"There will be plenty of opportunities in the future, right?" Xiao Qiang comforted her.
"Yes, we can come here to play together often."
Lin Yu had something on her mind and forced a nod without saying much. She was thinking about what the nurse had said when she retrieved the Vaccine Protein: after that incident at the hospital, it successfully attracted the attention of the infiltrators towards this service institution. Those bastards killed patients and deleted all the data, leaving only yours. You need to be careful.
M activated the smart voice-controlled TV. The news reported on the movements of the current rioters, stating that authorities were working hard to investigate.
"That's bullshit, boring rhetoric and absurd excuses," Xiao Qiang said angrily.
"I have a feeling that this organization of rioters could be part of some mysterious group's Human Eradication Plan. The first step is to eliminate V2 Zombie Virus carriers; who knows what the hell they'll do next? It's all about invisible rules and dark manipulations."
Lin Yu disagreed with Luo Wei's statement, saying, "I don't agree with you. Let's not forget our ancestors; they valued humanity and humanitarianism. Most people today support humanitarianism, but there are just a few extremists deliberately fanning the flames and trying to stir up trouble."
Tomorrow, the day after tomorrow—who knows what will happen? Lin Yu remembered her next appointment with the nurse; she needed to retrieve ten Vaccine Proteins and then sixty more along with the sixty in the password box. Then she and Xiao Qiang could leave this place.
