Chapter 558 Raising the Flag

Luo Han thought for a moment and said, "Here's what we'll do. You keep him calm for now. This afternoon I'm going to show the lord around the capital. Once he's in a better mood, I'll try to bring this up with him. Tell him to be patient."

"Yes, there is more."

"besides?"

"Um," Zhu Chen said awkwardly, "Is this considered a good thing?"

Luo Han looked at him in disbelief, and Zhu Chen continued, "Miss Su seems to have taken a liking to Bian Chen. Some of Bian Chen's fans have taken photos of him and Miss Su holding hands."

"..."

Luo Han knew Su Yimo's personality because he went to the provincial capital base every day.

He rubbed his temples again: "We won't interfere with this, but you should remind Bian Chen that Miss Su might not take responsibility for him."

As Bai Liuyun's good friend, Bian Chen is also extremely talented. He is now a level six ability user and is a key talent being cultivated in the capital base.

As far as he knew, Bian Chen had only dated one girlfriend during his university years. He had little romantic history and was quite young, so he was no match for Su Yimo.

Luo Han was genuinely afraid that Bian Chen would be abandoned and leave with Su Yimo, or that he would suffer a heartbreak and his personality would change drastically.

He suddenly felt like a mother hen, with everyone making him worry.

"Okay, boss, I'll talk to Bian Chen tonight."

"Well, please put it more tactfully. After all, Miss Su is an adult, and we should still give her face."

"I know my limits."

Luo Han looked at him wearily: "Is there anything else?"

"That's all, that's all."

"Then let's go. Don't come looking for me unless it's absolutely necessary."

Zhu Chen nodded: "Then I'm leaving."

Luo Han waved his hand, and Zhu Chen took two steps forward, then turned back: "Captain Luo, did you eat meat for lunch? And a lot of it?"

"……A little bit."

"Bullshit! I can smell it." Zhu Chen looked at him enviously: "My nose is very sensitive. You smell like meat all over right now."

Luo Han: "..."

Seeing the veins throbbing on his captain's forehead, Zhu Chen immediately turned tail and ran as fast as he could.

After the person ran away, Luo Han sniffed himself: "Where's the smell of meat? You have such a dog's nose."

That's what she said, but Luo Han still went back to her residence, quickly took a shower, and changed her clothes.

"Hmm, there shouldn't be any meat smell now." Smelling the soapy scent on his body, Luo Han nodded slightly.

After waking up from her afternoon nap, Ling Ran went sightseeing in the capital with Luo Han.

Uncle Chen and Liu Xiuping were both obsessed and didn't want to leave the kitchen for a moment.

Normally, they would be ordinary people, old and easily fatigued, but now that they've become superhumans, their energy and stamina are incomparable to what they used to be.

Ling Ran didn't force them; they worked hard to learn cooking, and she was the one who benefited. In fact, Ling Ran was very gratified; she knew she hadn't misjudged them.

Xiao Chen and Xiao Liu are both good kids.

She never complains about her circumstances, she just knows how to work hard quietly, which is excellent, and she is very happy with this asset.

Today, the first place Luo Han took Ling Ran to was the Forbidden City in Beijing.

The things inside are still the same as before the apocalypse. As they walked, Luo Han explained a lot of history to Ling Ran.

This allowed Ling Ran to learn more about this country.

Ling Ran heard that at the end of the dynasty, when foreign invaders entered the country, they burned, killed, and looted. To this day, many of the country's treasures are still scattered overseas, and some are even on display in foreign museums.

Then another period began, and Ling Ran listened for a while before asking, "Island nation? I remember sushi is from their country."

Ling Ran had watched quite a few movies before.

It's either extreme H or extreme pure love.

Some movies and novels are indeed quite good.

"Yes, sir."

Although Luo Han found Ling Ran's question somewhat strange, he dared not think that it was a question about an adult's lack of education.

In this apocalyptic world, the strong reign supreme.

Ling Ran retrieved the original owner's memories of this part and found that the original owner hated this country very much. The impression labels left about this country were things like Japanese devils, dwarfs, and a miserable life.

"It's the apocalypse, I wonder how their country is doing?"

"That's not very clear."

Luo Han's words were obviously false.

Six months after the apocalypse, the countries re-established contact, but it was of little use.

Every international conference is like a massive begging scene.

This country claims to be facing immense difficulties, while China, as a major power, needs assistance. Meanwhile, another country says that humanity is a community with a shared future and there should be no distinction between nations. It's all just a series of moral blackmail tactics.

They parted on bad terms.

Every country is struggling to take care of itself, so how can it possibly have the capacity to help others?

He did know a little about island nations.

The latest news seems to be from a year ago, when there was a severe earthquake, floods, and tsunamis. They called China for help, but were firmly rejected.

After visiting the Forbidden City, we went to Xuanwu Gate, which wasn't too far away.

As the sun set, Ling Ran stood atop the city wall and saw a group of people in military uniforms carrying guns walk out in unison from a corner and then ascend the flag-raising platform.

Luo Han explained, "Let the adults see the flag-raising ceremony."

Soon, the music started playing.

Many passersby stopped to watch, and residents nearby opened their windows.

It's been so long since I've heard this music.

Every Chinese person who hears this will feel moved and proud. Some people may not even know what they are moved by, but they are just very touched.

The five-star red flag fluttered in the wind, and Luo Han, standing next to him, immediately put his legs together and raised his hand in salute.

The music ended.

The red flag stopped right at the top.

After tying the red flag's rope, Luo Han suddenly shouted, "Attention! Left turn! Eyes forward! Attention! At ease!"

Below the city wall, all the soldiers faced Ling Ran, their movements so synchronized that they appeared as one person.

Luo Han also saluted Ling Ran!

The soldiers instantly raised their hands and saluted Ling Ran in unison.

Those who had stopped to watch, seeing this scene from afar, all stepped back a little and saluted.

Although they didn't know what had happened there, someone who could command such salutes from so many soldiers must be a very respectable person!

Someone took out a camera and captured the scene on the city wall, below the city wall, and among the passersby.

Leave through Xuanwu Gate.

Ling Ran didn't know if she had seen the original owner's memories, or if she had suddenly made a decision because of what happened today.

"Are you going out again tomorrow, sir? I'll make the plans."

"Can."

"Two attractions in one day? That way it won't be too tiring, we can come back for lunch, and the adults can take a nap at noon."

"Okay, you can arrange it."

After thinking for a moment, Luo Han brought up Bai Liuyun's matter. After all, dragging it out like this was not a solution. Sooner or later, Bai Liuyun would act willfully and come to the adults.

"My lord, Bai Liuyun says he would like to spar with you."
