Lin Yue has been having a recurring dream recently. One scene depicts the global apocalypse arriving on June 15th. The other scene shows her tied up and bound, suspended in a warehouse with over te...
Weren't these two supposed to be building a base in W City? What are they doing here?
Cang Yu, who was chopping vegetables in the kitchen, heard the sound, silently took out another piece of meat, and continued chopping, a smile involuntarily curving his lips.
"Why are you here? Didn't Cang Yu tell you to stay in W City to oversee the base construction? What will happen to those people if you come?" Lin Yue frowned.
It wasn't that she didn't welcome them, but the situation between her and Cang Yu was already complicated enough. According to Cang Yu, Cang Jue and Cang Jun were willing to risk their lives for him at any time. If they knew that he was going to go to a deadly situation with her, they would either stop him or follow him. It was really troublesome!
"Don't worry, sister-in-law. There are people watching over things at the base. We can do a good job even without us. But you and your brother are here, so you'll definitely need some help. That's why we came."
After Cang Jun finished speaking, Cang Jue nodded in agreement; that was exactly what they thought.
"Sister-in-law, aren't you welcoming us?" Cang Jun asked, noticing Lin Yue's furrowed brows and pouting lips.
"No, come in first!" Lin Yue stepped aside to let them into the courtyard.
Well, since they're already here, she can't possibly send them back, can she? Since they're Cang Yu's people, let him worry about it.
Once inside the courtyard, Cang Jun pulled Cang Jue into the house. Hearing a sound coming from the kitchen, he immediately ran in, grabbed an unwashed cabbage, and threw it to Cang Jue.
Cang Jue caught it with lightning speed.
Fortunately, he was prepared, otherwise the dish would have been ruined.
Looking at Cang Jun, who was about to act silly, he shook his head. He really was like a little kid.
"Brother, I've missed you so much!" Cang Jue said, reaching out to hug him.
Without saying a word, Cang Yu turned his back to Cang Jun and stretched out the kitchen knife to block Cang Jun from rushing over.
Lin Yue stood outside the kitchen, watching their interaction, then silently returned to the yard to continue adding water to the glass jar.
Actually, having two close friends who have been through thick and thin together is not bad. Let's leave those troublesome things for later!
...
Cang Jun and Cang Jue slept on a makeshift bed on the living room floor that night. The next morning, they went to the government service hall to apply for residency rights. Along the way, they acquired quite a few items and moved into the courtyard next to theirs.
Later, he joined the patrol team through Cang Yu's connections, but the three of them were not in the same group.
Half a month later, the snow wolf successfully gave birth to five wolf cubs, three males and two females. Just a few days after their birth, Jiang Ci, representing the base's army, came to discuss with her the possibility of transferring all of these wolf cubs to the army.
After the apocalypse, the number of military dogs in the army decreased significantly. They wanted to replenish their ranks, but there were no suitable ones available, or rather, they simply couldn't find any.
Her family has five wolves, and they look very intelligent. If they can be trained from a young age, they will definitely be elite military dogs.
Lin Yue neither agreed nor disagreed, but simply held her little wolf cub and said, "Commander Jiang, they've just been born, there's no rush. How about we wait until they're driven out and become independent?"
Although wolves like to live in packs, they also have a strong sense of territory. Once the wolf cubs reach a certain age, they will be driven away by their mothers to become independent. So, let's wait until she's had her fill of petting them before we talk about this.
“Miss Lin, here’s the deal: if you’re willing to trade with us for these five wolf cubs, you can name your price.” Jiang Ci offered his terms.
This was an order from their army group commander, who demanded that they acquire these five wolf cubs. They were desperately short of military dogs, and Lin Yue's five wolf cubs were perfect in every way.
"Hehe!" Lin Yue chuckled and glanced at Jiang Ci. "Commander Jiang, if I had a cell phone in G City that could record audio and video..."
Jiang Ci understood what Lin Yue was about to say without her having to. He had told her to name her conditions, but she never did.
"Miss Lin, I guarantee I can do it this time." This time, it was the commander who set the conditions, which Lin Yue mentioned, so it definitely carried more weight than his words.
"Commander Jiang, let's be frank. My condition remains the same: if you can manage, come and coax the wolf cubs after they're weaned. If you can coax them away, take them with you. If you can't, then I'm sorry." She wouldn't force the wolf cubs; she could afford to raise them anyway.
"Okay, I'll go back and talk to the commander." Jiang Ci replied quite readily this time, and then left Lin Yue's house.
In fact, Lin Yue's conditions were already pretty much what she wanted. Putting everything else aside, just take the medicine she had on hand. As long as the quantity was sufficient, she could easily exchange it for this opportunity.
However, those above are still observing, trying to extract more information.
Lin Yue didn't take it seriously; without seeing the results, it didn't matter.
She held the two wolf cubs in her arms, stroking them left and right, feeling like she couldn't get enough of stroking them; their fur was so soft and so lovely to touch.
Cang Yu, standing to the side, suddenly felt a little jealous of the two little ones. Being small was an advantage; they could curl up directly in Lin Yue's arms. He really wanted to pick them up and throw them away.
"Hey, what's wrong? Do you want a hug too? Here, take it."
Seeing Cang Yu staring intently at the two little ones on her lap, Lin Yue assumed he also wanted to hold them, so she picked one up and handed it to him.
Cang Yu looked at the little wolf cub facing him and really wanted to punch it like a child. He didn't mind that the little guy was unclean, but the cub in front of him was full of displeasure.
Cang Yu got carried away and the more unwilling he was, the more he wanted to pick it up. So he took the little wolf cub from Lin Yue's hand and walked to the other side.
Seeing that he was far away from Lin Yue, the little wolf cub became even more unhappy. He struggled to get off Cang Yu's lap, and with all his might, he took a few steps and soon he was back beside her. Then he jumped up and landed directly on her thigh, nuzzling her palm with his head, which almost melted her heart.
Lin Yue glared at Cang Yu, thinking that this guy was too unreliable. He had only been holding the little guy for a short time, and he had already made the little guy feel so wronged.
After comforting the little ones, she picked them up and took them to their nest; it was time for them to nurse.
Jiang Ci reported Lin Yue's request to his superiors again, and this time they readily agreed to her conditions.
Over the past month, Lin Yue's performance at the base has been remarkable, and with the wolves she commands, there may be even more they don't know about.
After she leaves, maybe all these things will be left behind? Promise her, and maybe you can snag a bargain later, betting that she'll leave everything to the base.
Although some people in the military region suggested forcibly seizing the property, it did not receive support from others, and that person also disagreed, so the proposal was dropped.
Therefore, they are currently in the stage of trying to please Lin Yue.
Lin Yue was unaware of the government's decision. His third crop of vegetables was ready to be harvested, and several families had placed orders to buy them, offering antiques and jewelry in exchange—a mutually beneficial arrangement.
Soon it was time to cook, and Lin Yue quickly pulled out all the vegetables. A little while later, Cang Yu brought out a basket from home, and the two of them quickly filled the basket. Then they divided the vegetables into five portions using bags, which were then delivered to Cang Jue, who hadn't yet gone to his night shift, and Can Yu, who had already finished his shift, to exchange.
There was a piece in the corner that Lin Yue had specially reserved to give to that person.
