As for the women, they swallowed hard when they saw the chocolate. But they knew that the chocolate was the payment for the bathtub, so no one said a word.
Jiao Lizhi noticed their behavior and smiled. This group of women was smarter than the rest.
After they went behind the metal partition, she raised her hand and created several balls of water. She wanted to test her limit, so she was generous with the water. She even heated up the water so they could soak in warm water.
When the women saw how she created one water ball after another and filled up the big bathtub, they were shocked. They thought she was vicious and had a bad personality. Unexpectedly, she was so generous.
It seemed that the words she had spoken before carried another meaning. When they thought about it, her words did make sense, even if they sounded harsh.
Even when she saw that woman glaring at her with hatred, she didn't kill her. Instead, she gave her a reason to live and get stronger.
When they reached this conclusion, one of the women suddenly said, "Sister, thank you so much."
Jiao Lizhi thought she was thanking her for the water, so she replied casually, "No problem. Do you have any soap or shampoo? You should wash away that dirt, black blood, and rotten flesh with soap."
Hearing this, they shook their heads. They had only thought of taking food, water, and medicine. So, no one had soap with them, let alone shampoo.
Seeing this, Jiao Lizhi said, "I have some with me. Wait here."
After she left, the women went to check the water and realized that the temperature was hot enough for them to soak.
Not long after, Jiao Lizhi returned with several basins, shampoo, soap bars, and towels.
She handed them to the women and said, "The basins are borrowed from the soldiers, so you must return them later. As for the towels, you can take them or return them to me."
"Thank you, sister."
Jiao Lizhi nodded and said, "Go wash up. I will guard outside."
After Jiao Lizhi came out, she noticed several men lurking around the area and sneered. In the apocalypse, human nature was exposed one after another.
There were still soldiers around, and these people already had crooked thoughts. She could imagine how they would behave without the soldiers.
With her standing guard outside, the women were finally able to take a shower without worries. No one soaked in the bathtub, thinking it would be a waste to use so much water just to soak.
Less than an hour later, they came out feeling fresh. They had also changed out of their dirty clothes and no longer looked like beggars.
After they came out, Xiao Qi came over and asked, "Sister-in-law, can we also take a shower?"
