DOOMSDAY ECSTASY CAVE (57)
57. ASSISTANT
Despite her defensiveness, Zhao Xianxian learned to be smart this time. She did not lose her temper with Lei Yi, instead, she made up with him as quickly as possible.
Making love doesn't do much, but it was enough to show the attitude of both parties. And with the efforts of both Lei Yi and Zhao Xianxian, they rolled together again. This time, because Professor Li was there, Lei Yi and Zhao Xianxian went out to drill the woods during their break.
"Where is Captain Lei?" Li Ran walked up to Chu Youning and asked in a seemingly casual manner.
"I just saw him go out with the deputy captain." Chu Youning said with a smile.
"Did they go on patrol? Is there any danger in this place?" Li Ran tried to be as natural as possible.
Chu Youning shook her head obediently, "I don't know." Chu Youning deliberately told Li Ran that Zhao Xianxian and Lei Yi had left together. She wanted to lead her to find them. Only when they fight, could she inspire more conflicts.
Li Ran looked around and was quiet for a while. Lei Yi and Zhao Xianxian were a public couple and suddenly they both walked away from the crowd, she knew what they were doing without having to think about. Li Ran was dissatisfied, but did not say anything. After all, she still had more important things to do.
Li Ran turned her head and looked at Chu Youning, "Can you tell me about the ZhanLei Base?"
Chu Youning did not expect that Li Ran would not fall for the trap at all, it seemed that she was not very easy to deal with either. Chu Youning pretended to think hard, "I don't know, I have lived in the base for less than a month. I was at home every day, and have never been out."
"One month? Then it hasn't been long since you joined Lei Yi's team." Li Ran said in surprise.
"Yes!" Chu Youning nodded, and answered all the questions. "I don't have any skills, I can only cook some food. Fortunately, the captain is kind and willing to take me in!"
Chu Youning answered whatever Li Ran asked, her purpose was to make Li Ran think that she was in good control.
"Captain Lei is really quite nice." Li Ran smiled in agreement. It was pretty useless to keep an ugly cook in the team who knows nothing except for cooking.
It was pretty much the same result as what she had inquired beforehand. Lei Yi's team was very upright, which was rare in the last days. The style of a team mostly reflects the style of the captain, so it seems that Lei Yi was still quite worthy of being entrusted to for life.
It was not difficult for Li Ran to marry Lei Yi, after all, her father's research results are there. But... it was quite difficult to know how to increase her weight in Lei Yi's heart. She knows that the effects of caring and not caring was completely different. So she must make Lei Yi care for her and value her.
Li Ran's biggest enemy is Zhao Xianxian, but Zhao Xianxian is an indispensable figure in Lei Yi's team. They go on missions together every day, so their relationship is naturally not ordinary. If she was kept in the base, she will eventually end up becoming a tool person. This was not the result Li Ran wanted, so she had to find a way to follow Lei Yi in his missions.
However, for a superb team like Lei Yi's, bringing a useless waste was the limit, and they wouldn't bring along another logistician just for the sake of mission efficiency. It was because of this that Li Ran targeted on Chu Youning. At least she has the water ability compared to the useless Chu Youning, she was obviously more suitable than Chu Youning. But the premise is...she has to learn to cook!
In fact, she knows how to cook, but compared to Chu Youning's cooking, the meal she cooks can only fill the stomach, it cannot be considered a delicacy. Yesterday, her father deliberately called her aside and instructed her to learn Chu Youning's cooking skills. The fact that Lei Yi's team can bring a non-combatant on a mission shows that they have great appetites and requirement. If she cooks the same way as she did before, it would be difficult to squeeze Chu Youning out.
"What is Ningning going to cook tomorrow morning, let me give you a hand!" Li Ran suddenly said.
"I'll be making fried noodles tomorrow morning, I will call you earlier if you want to learn from me!" Li Ran thought she was hiding it well, but she didn't know that Chu Youning had already seen through her thoroughly. In fact, it was not too difficult. Li Ran's acting skills can't escape the eyes of careful people.
Li Ran didn't even know whether to say Chu Youning was innocent or stupid. Zhao Xianxian had already reminded her, but she still told her everything she knew. Facing such an innocent Chu Youning, Li Ran felt a little sorry, so after some thought, she said quietly, "Why don't I teach you how to be an assistant to my dad!" When she comes out to join the team, Chu Youning can help at the base' research institute, each can take what they need.
Chu Youning was stunned, she did not expect Li Ran to say that, and then her eyes lit up, "Is that really possible? I...I am not good at science..." She said, pretending to be tangled.
"It doesn't matter, just be a life assistant for my dad, and someone else will do the rest!" Seeing that Chu Youning was moved, Li Ran smiled brightly at once.
Chu Youning didn't expect Li Ran to be quite conscientious, or at least not so thoroughly selfish. For an ordinary cook, Li Ran had really given her a better and safer job, but what Chu Youning wanted was not a stable life... her aim was to make herself stronger by relying on Lei Yi!
A life assistant to a professor...what prospects can it bring to her? She was afraid she'll have to be toyed with by that old man who already has half his foot in the coffin! In fact, Chu Youning is a very ambitious person. She is not reconciled to live a life of subservience, and she also hated to see others look down on people that serves with their body. She wants to live a good life, and also wants to be strong so that she can trample on all those who think they are better than everyone else! She wants those who have played with her to live for her, die for her, or... to live and die for her! Therefore, Li Ran's proposal was nothing but a joke to her!
