The woman didn't know how long she lay on the ground crying.

She stopped crying only when her eyes became red and swollen and no more fluid could come out.

Her throat had long been so dry that she could not make any sound, so she just opened her mouth and tried hard.

She was in a very remote place, at the very corner of the alley, so much so that even after she cried for so long, no one came over.

Maybe someone heard it, but when they saw that it was her crying, they gave up the idea of ​​going forward to help.

That's right, no one wants to be associated with this person.

That day, Li Yuan came back from the supermarket in a mess, even though she hadn't told anyone anything.

It didn't say what happened when she returned to the supermarket that day, nor did it say why she quit the line to fetch water.

But I don't know where those words came from.

She said that she quit the water-fetching team because she had a conflict with the owner of the supermarket there, who kicked her out directly, and because of some special abilities, she could no longer get close to the supermarket.

The base’s water supply these days is due to the supermarket.

When people talk about supermarkets, their first reaction is gratitude.

So after hearing that Li Yuan had offended the supermarket owner, no one wanted to get close to her, for fear that she would be implicated and they would suffer as well.

And those people who went to the supermarket with Li Yuan before and planned to get it for free.

In the days that followed, he was very honest, working diligently in the water-fetching team and even working harder.

The only thing is that they are too embarrassed to go to the supermarket anymore, and they have to ask their teammates to help buy things for them.

When they learned about what happened to Li Yuan, they were afraid that the same thing would happen to them.

She began to exaggerate Li Yuan's crimes, her rude behavior that day, and how she angered the supermarket owner.

Everyone in the water-fetching team knew that Li Yuan was in the same team as them, so they believed what they said.

After hearing this, Li Yuan was so angry that he wanted to tear their mouths apart in public.

"Nonsense, they are all talking nonsense. You clearly acquiesced at the time. We acted together. Why do you put all the blame on me in the end? Why?"

No one paid attention to Li Yuan's struggling words, which were soon drowned out by the noisy accusations of the people around him.

Seeing that Li Yuan was trying to drag them into the water, those people worked even harder and told everyone about what Li Yuan had done.

To the extent that now, Li Yuan is disliked by everyone in the entire Beiyuan base, and no one likes her.

Even when she went out to fetch water to sell, she would sell it to her at a price far higher than usual.

The scorching sun scorched the earth, greedily trying to squeeze out all its moisture.

The earth was cracked by the sun and the temperature soared.

Li Yuan was completely exhausted due to the huge emotional fluctuations just now. His body went limp and he fell straight to the ground.

Water…water…

Before Li Yuan's consciousness completely disappeared, he suddenly smelled a fragrance, and then a white skirt appeared in front of him.

Is... is there anyone who came to rescue her...

Her brain had stopped working and her consciousness remained at this moment.

"Auntie, thank you for taking care of me during the days I came to the base. I will give you this air conditioner as a small token of my appreciation."

Yan Xuesong returned home, simply packed the luggage he needed to take with him, and loaded it into the compression storage device.

Afterwards, he sorted out all the things in the hotel that were of little use and put them together.

Among them was the air conditioner he had just bought.

The hotel was extremely comfortable as soon as he entered. He probably didn't need air conditioning.

But since I had already bought it, I couldn't just throw it in the warehouse to collect dust, so I just made the best use of it and gave it to the lady next door.

This lady has lived in the base for a long time, and her son used to be a member of the collection team.

He went on a mission before and never came back.

The base provided her with a large pension, enough to cover her future living needs.

Yan Xuesong is about the same age as her son, so when he first moved to the base, he received a lot of care from the old lady.

The old lady had gray hair. When she saw Yan Xuesong moving in a brand new air conditioner, she quickly waved her hand and asked him to take it back.

"Xiao Yan, this air conditioner must have cost you a lot of money. I'm old and don't need such a good thing. The weather is hot now, so you can take it home and use it yourself."

The old lady's eyes were still clear.

"It's okay, Auntie. I actually came here to tell you something. I found a new place to live and will be moving out soon."

As Yan Xuesong spoke, he looked around the room, trying to find a reasonable location to place the air conditioner.

Having lived here for such a long time, Yan Xuesong was taken care of a lot by this lady on a daily basis, and he also wanted to do something for her.

"Move away?" When the old lady heard Yan Xuesong say that he was going to move away, her tone became a little hurried and she was a little shocked.

"Yeah, that's right." Yan Xuesong nodded.

The old lady looked at Yan Xuesong's back as he was busy moving the air conditioner, and suddenly her nose felt sore and a sense of reluctance surged in her heart.

But she was only reluctant for a moment, and when Yan Xuesong turned around and asked, she immediately hid that reluctance.

"Auntie, I'll install this air conditioner for you here. The air here won't blow directly towards you, and it's in a corner so it doesn't take up much space."

Yan Xuesong chose a good place.

"Okay, Xiaoyan, if you think it's okay, then go ahead. I'll listen to you."

"okay!"

Yan Xuesong agreed and began to install the air conditioner diligently.

The steps to install the air conditioner are not difficult. In addition, there is already a suitable circuit here. After he bought the air conditioner, the boss gave him all the other things.

It's the end of the world now, and there's no such thing as free home installation when you buy an air conditioner.

Everyone’s life is hard, who has the mood to work?

The old lady looked at Yan Xuesong's back as he installed the air conditioner and felt reluctant to let him go.

But she also knew that Yan Xuesong was not an ordinary person and would definitely not be confined to this small base in the future.

From the first moment she saw him, she felt that this man was extremely capable and would definitely not just be doing odd jobs in the base forever.

She didn't ask Yan Xuesong where he would move to in the future, but before leaving, she repeatedly reminded him to take good care of himself in the future.

Don't try too hard when you're on a mission outside. If you can't win, just run away.

And... don't be like her son, who sacrificed his life for the mission.

Yan Xuesong responded over and over again, without any impatience on his face.

Before leaving, Yan Xuesong specially left some food he brought back from the supermarket for the old lady.

As for the money, he didn't keep it.

The old lady has a lot of them herself, and she doesn’t know how to collect them.

After doing all this, Yan Xuesong was alone and set out on the journey to the supermarket.

Before leaving, he looked towards the house where the old lady lived with a little apology.

Sorry, ma'am, he is not out on a mission.

Instead, he wanted to move to a more comfortable place and continue his lazy life.
