"Excuse me, is Company Commander Xu here?"
As soon as this sound came out, the villa was suddenly noisy, and everyone's eyes were focused on Xu Renjie.
Xu Renjie was also surprised by this.
There is no doubt that he is not familiar with the male voice coming from the microphone, and in reality the only people who know him and would call him "military" are people from the army.
Could it be that someone from the army contacted him?
But how does the other person know that he is still alive? How could he be contacted by such a coincidence? The most important thing is how did the other party know the frequency band?
With all kinds of questions, Xu Renjie took the phone and gently pressed the call button: "I am Xu Renjie, may I ask who you are..."
"Oh, Captain Xu! Hello! Hello! I am Liu Fugui, Liu Yunpeng's father!"
I see! The survivors who were still confused at first understood everything immediately. Xu Renjie looked at Liu Yunpeng at the side of the table. The latter buried his head in a somewhat evasive manner and dug into the food in the bowl, as if Looks like a thief with a guilty conscience.
Perhaps sensing something, Liu Fugui, who had not received a reply for a long time, said again: "Company Commander Xu?"
"Here, what do you want to see me for?" When things had developed to this point, the fool also knew that Liu Yunpeng had communicated with his father privately, but this was not the time to pursue the matter, Xu Renjie asked in a low voice.
Listening to the other party's somewhat wary tone, the mature Liu Fugui immediately understood the meaning and immediately said with a smile: "Haha, Captain Xu, it's actually nothing. The main thing is that the dog has been taken care of by you these days, so I specially gave him a call tonight. Call to say thank you.”
Old Jianghu! Upon hearing what Liu Fugui said, Tang Xiaoquan immediately made a conclusion.
After all, everyone knew the underlying meaning of Liu Fugui's phone call, but he did not mention it directly. Instead, he used the name of thank you to eliminate Xu Renjie's concerns and use this to bring the relationship closer between the two parties. people.
Xu Renjie naturally knew what kind of medicine Liu Fugui sold in his gourd, but he did not specify it. He just followed the trend and said politely: "Mr. Liu, you don't have to be so polite. It's natural for me to borrow your villa to live in and take care of the dog. What's more, Besides, it is also our duty as soldiers to protect the people."
"Well said! Well said! What a soldier should do! The reason why China is so strong is because of you respectable and lovely people's soldiers!"
Wang Qiang felt goosebumps all over his skin. He had never seen anyone say such "exaggerated words" so "justly".
Of course, Wang Qiang did not deny the meaning of Liu Yunpeng's words, but in this scene, especially when it came from the latter's mouth, it was really... weird.
Xu Renjie's expression was as usual, and he did not show any arrogance due to the other party's praise. On the contrary, he replied very calmly: "It's nothing, it's just a soldier's duty."
The understated words fell in Liu Yunpeng's ears, but they made the corners of his lips curl up slightly.
He felt that the preliminary preparations were almost complete, so he said tactfully: "Well, yes, this is the responsibility of your soldiers! It is also the hope of our people! So what~ Originally I was a little worried and embarrassed to speak, but now I hear that Captain Xu, you are so As soon as you say that, I'll be convinced! Let's open the skylight and speak frankly. The first reason for contacting you this time is to thank you for taking care of Quan Zi; secondly, I have a merciless invitation. "
Sure enough, after hearing the four words "unkind invitation", almost all the survivors here thought of what Liu Yunpeng was going to say next.
However, his request, which he could have stated openly, immediately changed its tone after Liu Yunpeng's so-called "gratitude".
At least, the survivors felt very uncomfortable after hearing this.
"MD, you are truly a businessman, and you will never do business without treachery!"
Just as Wang Qiang was secretly cursing Zheng Huan, Xu Renjie asked calmly: "What's the matter?"
"That's right. Captain Xu must have also learned from Quan Zi that when the apocalypse first broke out, I contacted Yunpeng and told him to stay at home and not to run around. In the meantime, I also tried to send people to rescue, but Unfortunately, all failed due to various reasons, and finally due to the interruption of telecommunications, I completely lost contact with Yunpeng."
"Counting the days, I haven't seen Yunpeng for almost 4 months. I don't know if Company Commander Xu has family affairs and children, but as a man, I believe you should be able to understand my feelings for the past 4 months. I don't even think about tea every day. Can't sleep well..."
Afterwards, Xu Renjie basically blocked it automatically. He really didn't like people who deliberately played the emotional card for some purpose.
Even though Liu Yunpeng really missed his son, Xu Renjie didn't agree with his method of treating others as fools.
After a heartfelt confession, Liu Fugui finally got to the point and said: "So I hope that if possible, I would like to ask Company Commander Xu to escort the dog to my station. I know this request is a bit abrupt, but please consider me as a father." For the sake of your son, you must do this favor for me! Of course, I will not let Captain Xu do this in vain. As a reward, I will provide you with necessary living supplies. I think Yunpeng also told Captain Xu about my side. situation. I am not talented. I happened to be in the factory when the apocalypse broke out, and the emergency measures were quite appropriate at the time, so I was lucky enough to save the factory. Now the factory has relatively sufficient supplies and complete facilities. If Captain Xu is willing, I very much welcome you. Come and live with me.”
Undoubtedly, the conditions for Liu Fugui's expulsion were extremely tempting, but Xu Renjie did not want to be controlled by others, especially because of the integrity of the soldier's bones, which made him unable to accept the "exchange of things for people" conditions proposed by the other party.
To him, it was completely insulting.
However, as the saying goes, this moment is the same, leaving it in the past, Xu Renjie may be able to retaliate in one breath.
But now, looking at the brothers around him, he had to think more about the future of these people.
So after weighing the matter, Xu Renjie replied calmly: "I, Xu Renjie, appreciate Mr. Liu's kindness, but I'm sorry that I can't respond to you for the time being. After all, Liu Yunpeng is not the only one here, I also have other people who need me." Protection. So I'm afraid I won't be able to escort Liu Yunpeng until the villa is safe enough. But please don't worry, I will ensure Xiao Liu's safety on this day. As for when to send him to your place, I All I can say now is that when the time comes, I will contact you.”
An impeccable reply. Faced with such a comprehensive rejection, the experienced Liu Fugui could not think of a word to respond. In the end, he could only say a few words of gratitude, and then emphasized that Xu Renjie should not forget to escort this matter. The call was terminated. (To be continued.)
