As soon as Chen Yu returned to the bunker, he heard Lin Lele complaining angrily to Qiao Meng and Yang Yue: "These ungrateful wretches! They eat our food, use our things, and now they're even riding on our heads!"

"Especially that Feng Xinran, Xiao Qiao, you know Feng Xinran, right?"

"That's the young police officer! That woman is no good! If it weren't for Chen Yu and my strong support, how could she, a mere local police officer, have risen to such a high position in the base? Now look what's happened, she's colluded with outsiders and become some lousy secretary, even trying to supervise and check Chen Yu. It's infuriating!"

"And did you know that during the meeting this afternoon, they actually made me sit on a small stool? I'm the top secretary of the base, and they didn't even give me a seat on the stage. Isn't this bullying? Tell me, is there no justice in this world?"

Lin Lele got angrier and angrier as she spoke, her face turning bright red!

"Ahem~" Chen Yu coughed lightly and walked into the living room.

"Mr. Chen Yu, what exactly happened?" Qiao Meng asked anxiously.

Yang Yue looked at Chen Yu with the same worried expression.

"It's nothing. It's just some overconfident people trying to steal the limelight. They're just a bunch of clowns who can't cause any trouble," Chen Yu said calmly.

Then, Chen Yu looked at Lin Lele with a serious expression: "I've already told you, Feng Xinran isn't that kind of person! Don't say anything that's detrimental to unity again!"

"She's already riding all over you, and you're still defending her!" Lin Lele retorted indignantly. "She'll be the Party Secretary of our 'Tianyu Base' from now on, she'll definitely be one step ahead of you!"

"Secretary? It's just a nominal position. Do you think she has any real power as secretary?" Chen Yu sneered. "Xu Long and his gang used the so-called 'secretary' position to take over the resource management department from Feng Xinran. They just wanted to control the base's supplies and sideline me."

"Unfortunately, they miscalculated! They didn't know my true trump card!"

"Really? Isn't the Party Secretary the most powerful person anywhere? If they really want to sideline you, why don't they just become the Party Secretary themselves? Then the Resource Management Department would have to listen to them too. Why make things so complicated?" Lin Lele asked suspiciously.

“This is ‘Tianyu Base’. There were no such messy things here from the beginning. Do you think the so-called ‘Tianyu Base Branch’ that was just established can have any real power? Who listens to their nonsense?” Chen Yu sneered.

“But the organization is a large group. They manage everything from the top to the bottom,” Lin Lele questioned.

"So what? My 'Tianyu Base' can't tolerate them. What 'Tianyu Base' needs are people who get things done, not people who do nothing but brag and freeload all day!" Chen Yu's voice was filled with unwavering determination.

"Uh... sir, isn't it a bit much of a stretch to say that?" Lin Lele shrank her neck and whispered.

Qiao Meng chimed in, "Yes, Mr. Chen Yu, there are actually many good people in the organization. I once interviewed..."

Chen Yu waved his hand and smiled wryly: "Xiao Qiao, you're still too young. You haven't been exposed to those dark things."

"Chen Yu, you're not going to go against them in this kind of thing, are you?" Yang Yue asked, frowning.

"Haha~" Chen Yu laughed upon hearing this. "I'm not stupid. Why should I go against them? I'm a member of the organization myself. However, I understand even better what's most important in this apocalypse."

"Externally, we will naturally still use the organization's name, but internally, I absolutely will not allow such a group to exist."

“I built the Tianyu Base myself, and it uses all my resources. I don’t want to end up raising a bunch of ungrateful wretches who don’t even know who to thank!”

"You understand what I mean, right?" Chen Yu stared intently at Lin Lele and the other two.

Lin Lele looked completely bewildered.

Qiao Meng seemed to be deep in thought.

Yang Yue suddenly realized: "I understand, you mean that there can only be one 'god' in the 'Tianyu Base', and that is you!"

"You can understand it that way if you want," Chen Yu nodded slightly.

"The reason I'm telling you this today is because you are the people I trust most. 'Tianyu Base' is my base, and it will also be your base! Are you willing to join me in protecting this land, ensuring its prosperity and safety, and making it a haven in the apocalypse?" Chen Yu's voice was gentle yet powerful as his gaze swept across the three faces.

"I'm willing, sir! I will follow you to the death! If you tell me to go east, I will never go west!" Lin Lele immediately stood up straight, her face full of excitement.

"I...I'll do whatever you say." Although Qiao Meng's voice trembled slightly, her eyes were exceptionally firm.

Yang Yue shrugged and said, "Do I even have a choice?"

"Very good." Chen Yu nodded in satisfaction.

He finally understood today that power must be in his own hands. It's better to let someone he trusts manage the base than to let others do it.

Lin Lele has been with him for so long, and her loyalty is beyond question. Although she's not always the brightest, what does it matter? Who can't be a leader? A mature department has plenty of capable people under it. Let alone Lin Lele, even if you put a dog at the top, it wouldn't make much of a difference.

As for Qiao Meng, although she has a somewhat gentle personality, he had long since noticed her feelings for him, and she would never betray him, so she is trustworthy.

As for Yang Yue, although Chen Yu had only known her for a short time and she had a somewhat unruly personality, the two had a special relationship due to special circumstances, so she could be considered one of his own.
