The car is moving forward.

The sky grew darker and darker; there was a faint glimmer of light before, but now it was completely dark.

Not a single star could be seen in the rainy night sky.

Realizing the casualness in his tone, Gong Yi hesitated for a moment before explaining:

“I’m still quite worried that if things continue like this, the whole world will never see the sun again. Your suggestion is excellent. Build a lighthouse so that at least people trekking in the dark can find their way to Xiangcheng.”

"So how much? You decide."

What nonsense is he spouting? Hmm, it sounds very righteous!

"Hahaha, no problem, no problem, it's nothing, just a hundred million!"

Hua Mi didn't ask for a price. She only had this much cement left, and there was no cement of such high quality in the world. One hundred million was not expensive.

Gong Yi just laughed on the other end.

"I don't know what you're going to do with all that money."

"Okay, I've arrived,"

As soon as she finished speaking, two bright lights pierced the darkness and shone on Hua Mi.

A tall and imposing figure stepped out of the garrison's off-road vehicle. Gong Yi glanced at Hua Mi beside the vehicle, then turned to look at the tattooed man who was being pushed over by the garrison.

Upon seeing the garrison commander's shoulder insignia on Gong Yi's arm, the tattooed man immediately shouted:

"That woman is a murderer! She's a murderer! She's killed so many people! Kill her, Commander! I want to report her!"

Since the Xiangcheng garrison is so rule-abiding, they should arrest the real killer first!

The tattooed man twisted in the guard's hand.

Gong Yi glanced at Hua Mi.

Hua Mi rolled her eyes, fell onto the wrecked car beside her, and clutched her chest.

"Oh~ I'm so fragile~"

She remembered that Fang Xin always did this, making a gesture like Xi Shi holding her heart, which often aroused a strong protective instinct in men.

Hua Mi will give it a try today.

With a flick of his head, Gong Yi pressed down on the two guards holding the tattooed man and silently dragged him away.

As garrison personnel, everyone from top to bottom is extremely disciplined, so they didn't see Hua Mi kill anyone.

They can't just arrest and beat up a frail girl and force her to confess to murder because some random person jumps out and accuses her of being a murderer.

Adhering to rules does not equate to being overly cautious or going to extremes.

After everyone had left, even the body of the thug who had been shot in the forehead, which was in the car behind Hua Mi, was dragged away.

Gong Yi walked up to Hua Mi, who was still awkwardly acting.

"Alright."

He raised his hand and pushed Hua Mi's forehead with his palm, giving her a disgruntled snort.

"Nobody saw it, stop pretending. Tell me what happened?"

Compared to Fang Xin, her tea-making skills are far inferior.

Hua Mi stood up straight, smiling.

"What do you mean, what's going on? I have no idea what he's talking about."

She wouldn't be so foolish as to admit that she killed Qin Ziran and a few thugs.

We can't put Gong Yi in a difficult position, can we?

"A quiet girl like me, it's obvious I wouldn't fight."

Facing Gong Yi's suspicious gaze, Hua Mi's eyes were filled with sincerity.

Gong Yi, standing ramrod straight in front of her, scrutinized Hua Mi, this little liar, who refused to admit it.

In fact, she never told him a single honest word.

"When Cao Feng and the others came back this time, I discovered something."

Gong Yi stood casually with his long legs, and he also gave Hua Mi a fake smile.

"Why do they keep talking about Million Dollar Bride all the time? They've even watched up to season four. Why do you think that is?"

Mentioning this matter gave Gong Yi a headache. When did his garrison become so obsessed with soap operas?

They all have "Woman, you've caught my attention" on their lips; it's become a common saying among the garrison troops.

It's always the same old lines: "Hey woman, you've caught my attention!" or "Here's a million dollars, leave him!"

Gong Yi felt that either he was mentally unstable, or his garrison had all been brainwashed into being love-struck.

He questioned two garrison soldiers who had returned from City B, only to discover that they had been buried by two mudslides in City B.

Gong Yi couldn't tell what he felt when he first heard about it; at first, he felt very angry.

Before he left, he repeatedly told Hua Mi to protect herself and to evacuate immediately if she encountered any danger.

And what happened? She was buried by a mudslide!

However, Gong Yi's anger quickly dissipated. She was no ordinary woman; she handled the matter very well, not only escaping unscathed herself but also preventing any damage to his garrison.

If you ignore the garrison soldiers who constantly say things like "Woman, you belong to me," then those garrison soldiers buried in the mudslides are actually quite normal.

Okay, none of that matters. The important thing is that Hua Mi is back in good health.

So Gong Yi once again became Hua Mi's scapegoat. Cao Feng and the others said that he sent people to dig most of the tunnel, which allowed them to get out of the B City supply depot so quickly.

What could Gong Yi do? He could only nod in agreement.

"Oh~ that? Hahaha."

In the rainy night, Hua Mi smiled, feeling inexplicably guilty. Suddenly, she looked up at Gong Yi very seriously.

"I've noticed that you look really good when you smile; you have two dimples on your face."

Will her future children also have dimples? Are dimples hereditary?

Hua Mi found herself somewhat looking forward to it.

Because she had turned off the colorful lights on her goggles, Gong Yi could clearly see the envy and anticipation in her eyes.
