"Thank you, old man, it's time for dinner!"
Immediately afterwards, a middle-aged man with a Chinese character face, thick eyebrows and big eyes walked in, accompanied by a young woman who looked roughly like him, with a graceful figure and outstanding appearance.
Lu Xinyi was keenly aware that when the two people walked in, Mr. Xie and Bi Jing's expressions became solemn for a moment.
Soon, the two regained their composure.
"It turns out it's Lao Xu." Mr. Xie looked at Xu Hongliang and said with a smile, "Lao Xu, what do you want from me?"
Xu Hongliang first looked at the dishes on the table and felt slightly dissatisfied when he saw that there were actually four dishes.
Turning his eyes, he noticed Lu Xinyi sitting in the guest seat, with a bit of inquiry in his eyes, and said: "Mr. Xie, do you have a guest? I have never seen this little girl before, is she a survivor who just came today? "
Mr. Xie pointed to Lu Xinyi and introduced: "This is Captain Lu from the Oasis Base."
"Are you Captain Lu?" Xu Hongliang looked at Lu Xinyi in surprise and looked at her unabashedly, "I didn't expect that the person in charge of the Oasis Base would be so young."
As one of the managers of Shuguang Base, he had also heard about Captain Lu from Bi Jing.
Although Bi Jing said she was very young, Xu Hongliang never expected that Captain Lu was so young!
He looks to be in his early twenties, a bit too young!
After knowing Lu Xinyi's identity, Xu Hongliang immediately understood, "Captain Lu is here today, probably for the hospital operation, right?"
This is a base mission, he doesn't know it.
"It just so happens that I came to see Mr. Xie and Xiao Bi because of the hospital operation."
Xu Hongliang turned around and waved to Xu Meizhen behind him.
When Xu Meizhen walked up, he said, "Xiao Bi, please take Meizhen with you for this hospital operation."
Without waiting for Bi Jing to refuse, he continued: "Meizhen is also a superpower, and she is a rare spiritual superpower. With her following you, you can have more strength, right?"
Lu Xinyi, who was silent on the side, couldn't help but look up at Xu Meizhen when he heard this.
I didn't expect that she was actually a spiritual superpower, which was indeed rare.
Unexpectedly, when she raised her head, she met Xu Meizhen's appraising eyes.
When their eyes met, Xu Meizhen didn't feel any embarrassment at all. A hint of disdain flashed across her kohl-lined eyes.
Lu Xinyi: "..."
Is this person sick?
Bi Jing instinctively wanted to refuse and said: "Uncle Xu, the hospital is no better than the grain depot, and this joint hospital operation only has two bases: us and the Oasis base. The risk factor is very high. It is too dangerous for Meizhen to go with us. Let her stay at the base."
"You can protect Meizhen when there is danger!" Xu Hongliang said matter-of-factly, "Besides, Meizhen is also a member of the base. It is the unshirkable responsibility and mission of every base member to complete the base's tasks and contribute to the base." Xiao Bi, what do you think?"
"Can--"
"Bi Jing." Xu Meizhen interrupted, "Do you think I'm weak?"
"That's not what I meant, I-"
"We are also a woman. She can follow you on a mission, why can't I?" Xu Meizhen said, pointing at Lu Xinyi.
Lu Xinyi was speechless.
What does it matter to her?
She is not a member of Dawn Base.
"How can these be compared?" Bi Jing was also speechless, with a hint of impatience in his tone of voice, "Captain Lu is the base commander of Oasis Base. This operation is a joint operation between Shuguang Base and Oasis Base. Captain Lu Of course I want to go."
"Bi Jing, you just look down on me!" Xu Meizhen said displeased.
"Meizhen, why are you talking?" Xu Hongliang deliberately scolded with a straight face, "Why would Xiao Bi look down on you?"
"It's not that you look down on me, so why don't you allow me to go? Or are you afraid that if I go with you, I will take away your credit?"
"Meizhen! Don't talk nonsense!" Xu Hongliang suddenly raised his voice and cursed loudly as his name suggests, "Hurry up and apologize to Xiao Bi!"
"I don't want to apologize!" Xu Meizhen looked like a young lady and said angrily, "Every time there is an important task in the base, Bi Jing leads people to complete it. Now everyone in the base thinks that he is the core of the base. Where are the characters?”
"If I go this time, he won't be able to take all the credit. Of course he doesn't want me to go with him!"
"Nonsense!" Bi Jing slammed the table angrily, stood up, and retorted with a stern face, "Xu Meizhen, stop talking nonsense! As a soldier, I should charge into battle, and I have never had the idea of taking credit for myself. Don't slander others!"
"Whether I'm talking nonsense or slandering you, you know it in your heart!" Xu Meizhen raised her head arrogantly and met his dissatisfied gaze. "If you want to prove that you are not arrogant, then take me with you!"
"I--"
"Captain Bi." Lu Xinyi suddenly spoke up, saying before Bi Jing could, "Since this Miss Xu Meizhen is so insistent, let her go. If someone wants to share the credit, please help her."
Xu Meizhen suddenly became unhappy when she heard this.
She stepped in front of Lu Xinyi, crossed her arms over her chest, and looked down at Lu Xinyi.
"This is our Dawn Base matter, why do you, an outsider, have anything to say?"
Lu Xinyi raised his head and looked back at her, with a coldness in his clear eyes. Even when he was sitting, his aura was much higher than that of Xu Meizhen who was standing.
"Just because of this hospital operation, our Oasis Base will also participate. Who should be allowed to go and who should not be allowed to go? Our Oasis Base should also have a say, right?"
Although it was a question, there was a majesty in the words that could not be refuted, leaving Xu Meizhen speechless for a moment.
Lu Xinyi still looked at her indifferently and continued: "If you insist on going, then go. But I remind you in advance that no one will tolerate your young lady's temper. You'd better restrain your temper when the time comes, otherwise …”
"Otherwise, what?" Xu Meizhen snorted coldly, but there was obviously a hint of guilt in her words.
"Otherwise, I will throw you to feed the zombies."
"you dare!"
Xu Meizhen was furious, put her hands on her hips, widened her eyes, and glared at Lu Xinyi fiercely.
"You can try it if you dare."
"you--"
"Meizhen." Xu Hongliang stepped forward to hold Xu Meizhen, glanced at Lu Xinyi warily, and said with a smile, "Captain Lu is really good at joking. Since our two bases are in a cooperative relationship, how could you possibly attack Meizhen?" What? Meizhen is timid, Captain Lu, don’t scare Meizhen like this!"
At the end, there was a hint of threat hidden in his words.
Lu Xinyi met his sharp gaze without fear and said coldly: "Since you are timid, don't go. Just stay at the base and be her daughter."
Xu Hongliang was speechless for a moment.
"I want to go! You can go, why can't I go? We are both women, I will not be weaker than you!" Xu Meizhen said without thinking.
