“Xiaonian, can’t you call her another name? Don’t always call her Big Sister. Why do I feel that sounds like a mob boss?” Kong Qingming looked at Zheng Xiaonian and laughed.
“Not Big Sister? What should we call her then? Big Boss?” Zheng Xiaonian replied.
“… Big Sister is fine!” Kong Qingming looked at him, feeling speechless.
“She sneaked into their conference room at night, knowing that lots of files of their base were kept there. What was she trying to find out?” Lu Tianyi remarked while thinking.
“She was surely trying to find out the secrets of that new base. But in the end, she got caught. Do you know how ridiculously she reacted? She got caught, but claimed that she was only passing by. She also said that Upper City Base people don’t dare to do anything to her. Clearly, our Deputy Chief Yan underestimates those people,” Kong Qingming crossed his arms before his chest and said smilingly.
“Huh? Passing by? How could she even say that…!Who would sneak into other people’s conference room when passing by. She killed one of their soldiers and lied through her teeth?” Lu Tianyi said disdainfully.
“She might think that Upper City Base people would be afraid of Sea City Base, as they only have thousands of people. She thought that those people wouldn’t hurt her, but unexpectedly, Zombie… eh… the Chief of Upper City Base disjointed her arms and locked her in a room. I guess they’re waiting for our Chief to arrive now.” Kong Qingming hurriedly changed his words as he almost said ‘Zombie Sister’.
“So now, they’re waiting for the negotiation. We don’t know what those people will ask. In my opinion, our Chief can’t possibly bring Deputy Chief Yan back without giving out at least three level-six zombie nuclei,” Lu Tianyi thought through the whole thing and then said.
Yan Fangyu was a Deputy Chief of Sea City Base. With their current power, Upper City Base people would indeed be afraid of Sea City Base. However, even though they couldn’t do anything to Yan Fangyu, they wouldn’t possibly name a low price for her. At the very least, they would grasp the opportunity to find out where Sea City Base’s bottom line was, and then name a price right near that line.
Lu Tianyi believed that the price could not be lower than three level-six zombie nuclei.
“Have you finished your work yet? Let’s go and watch the show,” Kong Qingming tilted his head toward Lu Tianyi as he said, “That’ll be a great show. It would be such a shame to miss it.”
Lu Tianyi tidied his desk and then said to Zheng Xiaonian, “Xiaonian, before we come back, tell the others to start doing the works that I gave you just now. If there’s a problem, leave it and wait until I return.”
“Yes, sir,” Zheng Xiaonian was curious too, but he also understood that he could not leave for now as he had work to do. He was only a little jealous of his two bosses, who were able to go and watch the show.
“We’ll tell you what happened when we get back,” Kong Qingming noticed the look on Zheng Xiaonian’s face and then said. Hearing that, the latter left happily.
After cleaning the table, Lu Tianyi and Kong Qingming drove out of the base, toward Upper City District. They didn’t bring anyone else.
“I think your sister… I mean the current her, will definitely name a huge price to Chief Wu this time,” Kong Qingming said while driving.
“Whatever exists between the two of them is… a little complicated. If Lu Tianyu is smart enough, she won’t break Chief Wu’s bottom line,” Lu Tianyi nodded and said.
“I think our Chief should bring Zombie Sister a big gift this time, and it has to be a reasonable one. She’s his future wife after all. If he fails to handle this well, he would be facing so many difficulties when pursuing her, not to mention marrying her,” Kong Qingming burst in laughter.
Lu Tianyi and Kong Qingming said to each other that they were going to watch a show, but in fact, they only wickedly wanted to see Wu Chengyue’s frustrated face.
The current Lu Tianyu was no longer incapable and brainless like she was a couple of months ago. Wu Chengyue had suffered losses a few times already because of her.
Lu Tianyu stayed silent for a few seconds, then responded, “I think it’ll be difficult for Chief Wu to marry Lu Tianyu. Lu Tianyu’s attitude has clearly explained it. She’s obviously not interested in him.”
“That is right. For that very reason, I think Chief Wu will definitely take the opportunity to give more to Upper City Base this time. Yan Fangyu made the wrong plan. I guess her life won’t be easy even if she makes it back to Sea City Base,” Kong Qingming agreed.
…
That afternoon, Wu Chengyue’s car was driven to the zombie wall in Upper City District. At that time, he found that the zombies in that area had moved to both sides of the road and cleared the way. A young girl with long twin tails was standing on top of a utility pole nearby.
Qiu Lili leaped off the utility pole and landed before Wu Chengyue’s car, as his vehicles parked before the path instead of going straight through.
“Ahyaya, the little one…” The people in the car saw her descend, and then disappear in a blink. Next, they found her squatting outside the car window near Wu Yueling, looking at the girl with sparkling eyes.
Wu Yueling looked back at her confusedly.
Qiu Lili waved at the little one to greet her and then stepped away, turning to Wu Chengyue, “Big Zombie Sister said that you can just come in.”
“Thank you!” Looking at Qiu Lili’s purely dark eyes and glowing red pupils, Wu Chengyue nodded smilingly. After delivering Lin Qiao’s words, Qiu Lili stepped backward and then leaped on top of the building nearby.
“Let’s go!” Wu Chengyue said to the driver. The motorcade started moving forward. After all the vehicles passed through the zombie path, the zombie crowd automatically gathered back together and blocked the road again.
After watching the motorcade drive into the new base site, Qiu Lili flashed across the roof and disappeared.
Lin Qiao was sitting on top of the stair room. As Qiu Lili returned, she looked at her and said, “They’re here, right?”
“Hm, they are,” Qiu Lili landed by her side and nodded.
“How many people came with him?” Lin Qiao asked.
“Em, not many. Just four or five off-road cars, and not too many people sitting in them,” Qiu Lili answered the question.
“I see… I guess he’s ready to bring himself into my trap. I suddenly feel that five level-six zombie nuclei might be too little. Should we raise the price?” Lin Qiao laughed.
“Huh? Is that so?” Qiu Lili looked at her confusedly. She didn’t understand Lin Qiao’s meaning.
“You see, he only brought a few people, and that seems to be a little unserious…” Lin Qiao faced where the noises of vehicles could be heard from and blinked.
“So, is Yan Fangyu important to him? Does it mean he’s willing to pay a huge ransom for her?” Qiu Lili asked.
“What’s important to him is not that woman. Instead, it’s how the other people in Sea City Base, and the other bases might think of this. Therefore, he cannot let us do anything to that woman,” Lin Qiao shook her head.
