345 Waiting for Them to Come Back in the Sandstorm
“I know! Sister Yu, you be careful too!” As soon as Du Yue finished speaking, she saw the car in front of her start and drive straight to the small building.
He Xing headed towards the house where they lived. Taking advantage of this time, Du Yue flattened the seat, climbed into the trunk, and put everything inside into the space.
The car stopped steadily in front of the mobile house. Du Yue and He Xing ran out of the car and ran into the house.
There was a lock hanging on the door of the living room. Du Yue opened it as quickly as possible. They returned to their house, closed the door, and turned on the lights. Everything happened in one go. Du Yue looked down and smiled. As the living room was not a completely enclosed space, some sand had already seeped in from the cracks on the floor and gathered into a small mound. Seeing this scene, Du Yue could only secretly rejoice that the bedroom was sealed well. Otherwise, they would probably have to wear masks to sleep at night.
Du Yue looked at He Xing and saw that he was all yellow. His face, clothes, and hair were all covered in yellow sand. He looked a little disheveled but also a little sexy. Just by looking at He Xing, Du Yue knew what she looked like now. Du Yue took out the bathtub from her space and took out a change of clothes and toiletries. She placed them all in front of He Xing. “Hurry up and take a shower. I’ll go to the bedroom to wash up too.”
“Okay, go quickly.”
Du Yue did not need He Xing’s urging. More than an hour later, Du Yue and He Xingcai sat together on the carpet and chatted with Yu Xinya on the walkie-talkie. Yu Xinya said that when the wind blew, she was watering the crops with everyone. When the sand hit her face, she thought it was raining and was extremely excited. However, she soon realized that it was a sandstorm. She quickly called everyone back to the small building and ordered them to close the doors and windows.
Yu Xinya was worried that Du Yue and He Xing did not bring their walkie-talkie and the base would not hear the doorbell, so she drove to the gate and waited there. When Yu Xinya mentioned this matter, her tone was light, but Du Yue was extremely touched. After spending a long time together, Yu Xinya and the others’ sincere and pure hearts gradually melted Du Yue’s frozen heart.
Thinking of the situation at the small building, Du Yue asked, “Sister Yu, how do you plan to eat later?”
The small building had two connected rooms outside which were the kitchen and canteen. Usually, they would go downstairs to eat together. In this situation, if they ran out in the sandstorm, they would definitely be covered in dust. “Don’t worry. Every room in the small building has a raincoat. When the meal is ready, we can wear a raincoat and go out to get the food.” Yu Xinya’s tone was a little excited. “Fortunately, I brought everything with me before we set off from our base before this. Otherwise, we would’ve been left with no choice.”
Du Yue frowned slightly. Although wearing a raincoat to get food could temporarily solve the problem, if the sandstorm lasted for a long time, this was not a solution either. “Sister Yu, when the wind subsides, you’d better go and look for Wu Yan. Buy some movable boards from him and block the corridor on the second floor. You can also set up an empty space on the first floor. If the children can’t stand it anymore, they can come out and exercise.”
Anyway, there was a thick fog and sandstorm outside, so there was no sunlight at all. There was no need to worry about whether the space built by the movable boards would block the sunlight. Yu Xinya’s surprised voice came from the walkie-talkie. “Yes! Why didn’t I think of that!? Little Sister, you’re really smart!
“When the wind goes down, we’ll go out and take a look!”
Du Yue pursed her lips helplessly. Yu Xinya and Wan Dapeng had been together for a long time, and their way of speaking was becoming more and more similar. Why did Yu Xinya’s words not sound like a compliment to her? After ending the call, Du Yue put the walkie-talkie aside and lay down on a huge teddy bear. It had been a long day, and she really did not have any strength left.
He Xing approached her. “You must be exhausted. I learned some massage techniques from the videos. Why don’t I give it a try? I was very serious when I was learning. My skills shouldn’t be too bad.”
Du Yue had long known that He Xing had a strong learning ability. Since he said that his skills were not bad, then they must be very good because he never lied!
Du Yue turned over lazily and showed her back to He Xing. “Thank you for your hard work, Mr. He.”
Although she was lying on her stomach, Du Yue could hear He Xing rubbing his palms behind her back. Without waiting for Du Yue to speak, He Xing had already placed his warm palms on her waist. He Xing’s strength was neither light nor heavy, and when he massaged her body, she felt numb. The muscles that were being massaged by him were indeed much more relaxed than before.
