Chapter 157 Centrifugal Forces

Looking at the various supplies filling several large warehouses, and then at Gu Zuozuo who was happily turning around and leaving with her reward, Xie Jinyu realized for the first time how big the gap was between the two of them.

They're both superhumans; he's confident he can outsmart them, but in a fight, he might get a really bad beating.

She could easily and calmly escape from a massive army, while I could do the same, but it would take a lot of effort.

As he was lost in thought, a hand patted his shoulder, and Wang Erzhu's smug yet annoying voice rang in his ear.

"How about that? She's really strong, isn't she? I told you she doesn't need any help, and you still don't believe me?"

He shamelessly dragged her into the Bureau of Foreign Affairs, but how could a big shot who hasn't even succeeded yet need outside help? It's good enough if others don't hold her back.

Look at this ancestor's achievements in the last six months. It's been incredibly impressive for the past fifty years. If she had been born in the era when the Japanese were rampant, she would have beaten those beasts to a pulp!

Xie Jinyu glanced at the claw on her shoulder with a troubled expression, then shrugged, threw Wang Erzhu down, and turned to leave.

"Hey! You disrespectful brat!"

Muttering curses under his breath, he still obediently chased after them.

With the war temporarily suspended, each country was overwhelmed by the chaos within its own borders. It wasn't that some were stubborn and determined to continue fighting, but unfortunately, supplies of materials and food were insufficient, and weapons support was almost completely cut off. Not only were their own countries in turmoil, but feeding and watering the tens of thousands of soldiers fighting became the biggest problem. In the end, they had no choice but to temporarily cease hostilities and solve their own internal problems first.

Gu Zuozuo stayed at the border for more than half a year. By the time she returned to Beijing, it was already 1980, the year of China's economic opening up.

People who used to wear only gray, black, and blue clothes on the street are now starting to wear brightly colored clothes.

Wearing a floral shirt and bell-bottoms, sunglasses, and a radio slung over her shoulder, the Queen of Sweet Songs' sweet voice filled the surroundings, attracting countless people to stop and turn around, their eyes following her.

The girls, with their various hairstyles and brightly colored long dresses, walked hand in hand with their companions, laughing and chatting as they passed by. They carried all sorts of paper bags they had bought while shopping, their eyes sparkling with youthful energy.

The black car glided silently down the street. Gu Zuozuo leaned against the window, looking at the thriving scenery outside, a gentle smile unconsciously curving her lips.

very nice.

Looking at the bustling street, the men and women laughing and joking, the children sitting on their fathers' shoulders eating candied hawthorns with innocent smiles, and the elderly taking leisurely walks, this peaceful and serene life is truly wonderful.

As soon as the car stopped in front of the Prince's Mansion, Gu Zuozuo saw a very unexpected person: Shi Mobai.

Are you a security guard at my house?

The familiar banter between the two suggests they have a good relationship.

Shi Mo rolled his eyes at her and shook the yellow file bag in his hand.

"Do you think I have a lot of time? I've come to deliver a reward to a hero, and if I'm not welcome, then I'll leave?"

Before Gu Zuozuo could answer, the vermilion gate creaked open from the inside, and Xinchun's round body slid out with a whoosh. Its excitement could be seen from its short legs that swung around in a blur.

【Master!! Aba aba aba…】

Master, it's been so long! I missed you so much this Lunar New Year!

Gu Zuozuo chuckled; it turned out there was someone at home waiting for her to come home.

Yes, robots are people too.

"Come in, how long have you been waiting?"

Holding Xin Chun's hand, who kept circling around him and sticking to her, Gu Zuozuo turned around, waved to the driver, and led Shi Mobai into the door, but her eyes quietly returned from the corner.

Shi Mobai glanced meaningfully at the corner, a hint of mockery flashing in his eyes, then turned around and followed Gu Zuozuo into the room.
