After dinner, Fu Zheng asked Chen Yu to go out alone. As for what he said, no one knew.
Anyway, Chen Yu's face looked as usual when he came back, and he couldn't tell whether he was happy or unhappy.
After Feng Ming and others went back, only Jiang Ya and Fu Zheng were left in the room. Fu Zheng told her about the conversation with Chen Yu.
Fu Zheng asked him straight to the point: "What kind of feelings do you have for He Jia? Are you just grateful to her because she is your savior, or are you thinking about the relationship between men and women?"
After Fu Zheng asked, Chen Yu was really confused by his question.
There is definitely a feeling of gratitude. Although a lot of supplies were sent there, compared with the life-saving grace, these external things are really not enough.
But he couldn't say that it was a relationship between a man and a woman. After all, the two of them had a lot of plans and this time alone in the morning was only the first time they met.
Fu Zheng saw that Chen Yu couldn't figure it out himself, so he asked him to think about it carefully.
Before leaving, tell him to pay attention to Zhou Ci. If you find anything unusual, you must tell them as soon as possible.
After Chen Yu left, he thought about it alone for a long time. He had never been in love. Among the brothers, except Wang Mengcheng, who had been cheated by a woman before, only Fu Zheng had a partner, so he didn't know what it was like to like someone.
If he couldn't figure it out, he simply gave it up and thought about getting in touch with He Jia again. After he really understood what he was thinking, it wouldn't be too late to pursue her again.
Besides, the boss asked him to pay attention to Zhou Ci, so there must be something wrong with Zhou Ci.
Moreover, He Jia was with Zhou Ci, so he felt that his feelings for He Jia would not cause any further disturbance.
Now Chen Yu naturally doesn't know that the most difficult thing for a person to control is his own heart.
***
After the heavy snow fell intermittently for more than half a month, it finally showed signs of stopping.
It has been snowing for most of the month, and all work in the base has stopped.
As soon as the snow stopped today, Lao Lu called on those with metal and earth abilities to go to the wall and see if there was anything that needed reinforcement.
This is also the first time that He Jia, as an earth-based superpower, has participated in activities at the base.
As a member of the base leaders, Chen Yu naturally went along.
When He Jia saw Chen Yu, he greeted him warmly for the first time.
"Brother Chen Yu, what a coincidence that you are here too."
Chen Yu nodded expressionlessly, but his heart was already filled with joy because He Jia called him "Big Brother Chen Yu."
He was a few steps behind the main group, deliberately keeping the same pace as He Jia.
Pretending to chat casually, he said: "Isn't it cold today? Do you want to go shopping again when you have time?"
It was indeed warmer today than the last time they visited the base, but it was still a bit unbearable for a thinly dressed girl.
He Jia looked at Chen Yu's brand new down jacket and had a rough idea of his character. He was the alpha male.
So she planned to play the first ball: "Brother Chen Yu, you see, I don't wear much, and I'm not as able to withstand the cold as you are."
Only then did Chen Yu notice what He Jia was wearing, a beige cotton-padded jacket that was not new, a pair of brown cotton trousers, and a pair of sneakers.
He patted his forehead and suddenly realized: "Oh, I was negligent. In this way, I will come to you in the afternoon and bring you some clothes."
The clothes that were collected last time and those that have not been distributed are piled in Feng Ming's space. It is not difficult for Chen Yu to get a few pieces.
He Jia was really cold, so she didn't pretend to be polite to him.
Huan Huan thanked him happily and said, "Thank you so much, Brother Chen Yu. Come this afternoon and I will make you something good to eat."
Chen Yu didn't ask what good things it was. After all, they would definitely not be short of anything He Jia could give.
After inspecting the wall for a week, there were indeed a few cracked areas. Lao Lu called for those with earth powers to come forward first.
As a new member who lives and eats for free, He Jia naturally stepped forward to help.
When Lao Lu saw this, he was even more pleased: "Sister He Jia is really a woman, like our sister-in-law, she is a representative of women in the new era!"
Being praised by Lao Lu in front of so many people, He Jia smiled sheepishly and said, "No, the leader is too polite. Besides, how can I compare with my sister-in-law?"
Although she had arrived at the base not long ago, she had already heard a lot about Jiang Ya's great achievements.
Comparing her with Jiang Ya is indeed too flattering. He Jia has that self-awareness.
However, He Jia like this is undoubtedly the most eye-catching existence in Chen Yu's eyes.
Strong in ability but not arrogant, he is the ideal partner in his mind.
When Chen Yu went to deliver clothes in the afternoon, He Jia had already prepared snacks and was waiting for him.
She handed a small bowl of round white dumplings to Chen Yu's hand and explained with a shy smile: "This is a snack from our hometown. It was supposed to add brown sugar, but I didn't have it here, so I left it out." White sugar. But I have tasted it and it tastes good. Brother Chen Yu, don’t dislike it. I can only make these simple things for you to show my gratitude to you. Thank you for taking such good care of me.”
Chen Yu silently took the bowl and said he didn't dislike it, but no one saw his red eyes.
In Chen Yu's memory, there is this same Yuanzi.
He didn't remember his mother's face, but the memory of her mother cooking dumplings for him when he was sick was deeply etched in his mind.
After leaving the organization, he tried to find his family, but the news he received was that his mother died in an accident while searching for him within two years because he was lost.
Because of the death of the mother and the disappearance of the son, the father also fell ill and passed away a few years later.
At this point, Chen Yu no longer has any blood relatives.
This is the first girl to cook dumplings for him in so many years.
He Jia didn't know why Chen Yu held the bowl and left without saying a word, but when he came to return the bowl at night, he gave her two packs of brown sugar and a black bag with unknown contents.
Chen Yu shamelessly asked Jiang Ya for the brown sugar. When Jiang Ya learned that he was giving it to He Jia, she thought He Jia was on her period, so she thoughtfully packed a black bag with several packs of sanitary napkins.
It’s not that she’s kind. Sanitary napkins are already scarce. It would be nice if the female survivors in the base could get one pack every month.
He Jia must have arrived late. She might not be able to go out if she doesn't have sanitary napkins when her period comes.
Furthermore, she and Fu Zheng are very happy now. If possible, she naturally hopes that Fu Zheng's brothers can also be happy.
After Chen Yu left, He Jia opened the black bag. When she saw the contents, she couldn't help covering her mouth and crying.
She decided that she could no longer take advantage of Chen Yu because of his feelings. He was innocent.
She was already unfortunate enough, and she shouldn't pass on her misfortune to innocent people.
Just when He Jia stood up and wanted to catch up, she was grabbed by Zhou Ci who was secretly observing her.
Facing Zhou Ci's gloomy eyes, He Jia couldn't help but shudder.
It's not a good idea to say something secretly!
