Chapter 17: Chapter 17: Qin Feng's Promise
Unaware of Han Weilin's presence, Su Jiyai and Qin Feng soon reached the dormitory.
Su Jiyai was a bit regretful in her heart.
If only...the distance between her training ground and dormitory was huge, she could have had the chance to spend more time with Qin Feng.
However, just like how everyone has to wake up from their beautiful dream, Su Jiyai too had to face the bitter reality.
"Jiyai." Qin Feng called out softly.
Su Jiyai's heart skipped a beat as she shifted her gaze to Qin Feng.
Does he know her name?
Oh! Right! He knows everyone's names in the newbie's batch.
"If you have any request, that I can fulfill, please say so." His tone was serious.
Su Jiyai softly asked,
"Any?"
"Any." Qin Feng nodded.
'Even becoming my boyfriend?' Su Jiyai thought.
However, she knew that she couldn't be greedy.
"Someday, if I don't return to the army during one of the wars against zombies and my best friend conducts a burial for me, please attend it." Su Jiyai said.
She was sure, Han Weilin would conduct a burial for her.
Even if she was dead, she wished to see his crush for one last time.
Maybe not in this life but in the next life, they can be together if he sees her off.
Qin Feng was surprised and gloomy.
He felt as if it was getting a little difficult to breathe.
How could such a young girl, talk about her death so calmly?
And why did she ask for such a thing when she had the chance to ask anything else?
Swallowing the lump forming in his throat, Qin Feng suggested,
"Why don't you change your request? I can use my connection to get you out of the army. You can return to your family and will never have to die."
He didn't want to see her die...
He can't...
Just the mere thought was enough to make him a bit uncomfortable.
Su Jiyai chuckled,
"No."
What family? She doesn't have any family.
The Su family will never accept her, and survival in an apocalypse without shelter is very difficult.
Not to mention, as her best friend said if they fight enough zombies, they would be lucky enough to awaken a superpower of their own.
If she remains in the army, fights with zombies, and dies without awakening a superpower, at least she would have contributed to the army.
However, once she is outside the army, no contribution would be made by her and she would at most roam in the Willow Land without any purpose.
Qin Feng stopped persuading when he saw a determined expression on Su Jiyai's face.
"Okay."
Su Jiyai smiled. Her smile was so beautiful that Qin Feng was a bit dazed.
"Thank you."
Qin Feng came out of his daze and said,
"Fine, you go back to the dormitory."
However, when he shifted his gaze to the dormitory, Qin Feng was stunned.
Was the dormitory for ordinary people so bad?
As far as Qin Feng remembers, the dormitory of ordinary people was supposed to be a normal building, so why was it looking like some haunted house?
Qin Feng made a mental note to talk with the administrator and talk about the renovation of the dorm.
"I will but before that, I wanted to ask how are you feeling captain?" Su Jiyai's voice broke Qin Feng's thought process.
Su Jiyai knew that it was too late to ask that question but she was so excited the first time that she forgot about that question.
"I am fine." Qin Feng said with a slight smile.
Su Jiyai nodded and turned to enter the dormitory, before leaving she didn't forget to wave a bye to Qin Feng who nodded at her.
What Su Jiyai and Qin Feng didn't know was...a figure from the window of the dormitory was watching them.
Once in the dormitory, Su Jiyai found that her other roommates had yet to return and went to her bed. Today was her luckiest day!
Captain Qin talked with her! He even promised to attend her burial! What more she could ask?
Suddenly a tap on her shoulder, made Su Jiyai's face turn pale and she turned to look at the person who tapped on her shoulder.
"Hu! Weilin you scared me!" Su Jiyai patted her shoulder.
Han Weilin didn't answer and only looked at Su Jiyai with a complex look.
"What happened?" Su Jiyai asked in confusion.
"Jiyai why did you say that I will conduct your burial? I will not conduct a burial if you don't return to the dormitory in one piece." Han Weilin said in a calm voice.
The moment she heard that line, only god knows how hurt Han Weilin was.
She can't see Su Jiyai dying!
Not when she had finally found a good friend!
Su Jiyai felt a bit emotional and hugged Han Weilin,
"Weilin, I am taking precautions for my future. I don't feel I will die for sure." Su Jiyai consoled.
Han Weilin hugged Su Jiyai back her grip tightened around Su Jiyai's waist.
For the next two minutes, no one spoke.
Finally, Han Weilin asked,
"How was your little date with Captain Qin?"
Su Jiyai rolled her eyes,
"What little date? He was just there to drop me."
However, Su Jiyai's blushing cheeks betrayed her.
"You little liar! Looks like I will have to force a confession out of you!" Han Weilin said and lifted her hand.
Su Jiyai instantly backed away and shook her head,
"No! Weilin you can't! No!"
"It's tickle time!" Han Weilin said with an evil time.
Su Jiyai started to run while Han Weilin tried to catch her.
It was a rare leisure time for both of them.
In the end, Han Weilin caught up to Su Jiyai and tickled her to the point, that Su Jiyai couldn't take any more and begged for mercy.
The two friends chatted for a while before going back to the bed.
......
Next day.
Su Jiyai got ready and just as she was about to leave the dormitory, her stomach started to ache.
Confused Su Jiyai placed a hand on her stomach and a familiar ache made Su Jiyai's face change.
God! Her aunt flow is here!
Su Jiyai gritted her teeth and looked for sanitary pads or tampons. However, even after looking around for a long while she found none.
Just then Han Weilin who had got ready too, saw Su Jiyai.
"What happened?"
"Periods." Su Jiyai said with a sad face.
It wasn't like she never had periods. Just the previous month she got her first period and thanks to the counterwoman she was able to get sanitary pads.
However, the counter woman had warned Su Jiyai to buy her own sanitary pads the next time.
Su Jiyai didn't have money.
Sanitary pads during the apocalypse were so expensive!
A single packet of sanitary pads or tampons costs 2000 federal coins!
Han Weilin smiled with a helpless face,
"Why are so worried, am I not here?"
Then Han Weilin walked towards her luggage and took two packets. She passed it to Su Jiyai,
"Here."
Su Jiya took the packet and said with a determined expression,
"Weilin, I will repay you later!"
This wasn't the first time, that Han Weilin helped her.
One time when Han Weilin saw Su Jiyai eating only bread, she bought 10 packets of pickles for Su Jiyai so that Su Jiyai wouldn't have to eat the dry bread.
She also bought two new sets of clothes for Su Jiyai.
Han Weilin's family was well-off, but it wasn't to the point that she could give away such a precious thing without any consequences.
She would for sure have to answer her parents, yet Han Weilin didn't back down.
To have such a best friend, Su Jiyai was filled with delight.
It wasn't like she would never repay her though...once she started to earn a monthly wage, she would slowly repay Han Weilin.
"Wow! What a liver-touching friendship. Weilin, when Yuan asked for sanitary pads, you only gave her 7 pieces, while you are giving her entire two packets!
How selfish you are! And you, Jiyai, you are just using Weilin! Both of you are a perfect match b*tch and b*tch!" Wang Bao said in a sour tone.
"Bao stop causing trouble." Li Yuan said in a soft voice. Her eyes turned red and she would occasionally look at Su Jiyai and the sanitary pads.
Han Weilin narrowed her eyes,
"Three things. First, it is my thing, I will decide who to give the sanitary pads to, you are no one to question me, you should be grateful that I helped.
Second, when Yuan first came to the dormitory and didn't have enough money, I lent her a packet too. She still hasn't paid me the money yet, but I never fussed over it.
You too received the sanitary pads from me, but never repaid me.
And third, my bestie is not using me!"
