This made Yu Wei and Ye Ming's hearts tense. They didn't know what kind of answer they would hear, and their hearts were filled with tension and anticipation.
However, Xiao Yi seemed unfazed. He peeled peanuts, his demeanor composed. His demeanor exuded a nonchalant and carefree attitude, as if he could accept the outcome calmly. He didn't even care.
At this moment, every subtle movement and every silence of Mr. Yu was filled with profound meaning. His expression and every gesture conveyed a message. Although Yu Wei and Ye Ming didn't fully understand it yet, they could sense a strong sense of tension.
Finally, Mr. Yu set down his teacup and sighed deeply. A resolute glint flickered in his eyes, as if he had already made a decision. He said, "The tea is overcooked; it's a little bitter." These simple yet heartfelt words instantly dispelled the tension.
At that moment, Yu Wei and Ye Ming felt as if a thousand crows flew overhead. The world before them suddenly became chaotic, like tea leaves swirling in a teapot. In such a tense moment, the topic of tea seemed particularly inappropriate. The two exchanged a glance, a hint of helplessness in their eyes.
However, Xiao Yi smiled lightly, seemingly unconcerned about this sudden incident. He poured all the brewed tea into the fairness cup beside him, then handed Yu Wei a small butter biscuit and said in a relaxed tone, "Yes, it was indeed cooked for a long time."
His tone seemed to have a magical power, instantly dissolving the tense atmosphere. Yu Wei took the biscuit, and the helplessness in her heart also dissipated a lot.
However, Ye Ming's patience wasn't so strong. He couldn't wait to ask, "Grandpa, what are you thinking? You have superpowers now, but your body isn't as strong as a young person's. It's good enough to be able to enjoy your old age in peace and quiet."
Old Master Yu put down his teacup, looked around at the three of them, and finally fixed his gaze on Ye Ming's face. His tone was serious and deep: "Yes, how could I not know? But the question now is, can you enter the underground shelter? Or can we get out of this room? At least for now, we can only wait in this room until the temperature rises a little."
Several pointed questions were thrown at Ye Ming, and he was instantly speechless. He didn't know how to answer, and his face was full of embarrassment that he couldn't hide. He had originally expected his grandfather to offer some solutions or suggestions, but he didn't expect to be asked questions that he couldn't answer.
However, Mr. Yu didn't blame him. He sighed deeply and said earnestly, "I know you're anxious now, but this is reality. We must bravely face reality in order to find a solution to the problem."
Ye Ming was lost in thought. He seemed to be constantly pursuing something, but he had never asked himself if he could achieve it, how to do it, or what method he should use to achieve it. His heart was like a fog, unable to see the road ahead clearly.
However, he did not give up his search for answers. He began to reflect on his own behavior, his abilities, and his potential. He realized that only through self-questioning and reflection could he find solutions to his problems.
So he began to ask himself: "Can I do it? What are my strengths and weaknesses? How should I do it? What methods can I use to better achieve my goals?" These questions were like a key that opened the door to his thinking.
Perhaps through deep reflection and self-questioning, Ye Ming was able to gradually find his direction and goals. He understood his abilities and potential, and knew how to realize his ideas.
Old Master Yu watched Ye Ming finally find the key point, his eyes flashing with appreciation. Then he turned his gaze to Yu Wei and Xiao Yi again, his tone serious and mysterious: "How are you preparing for the idea of leaving the base? Have you found a suitable way out?"
Xiao Yi nodded frankly, without hiding any information, his voice firm and decisive: "We do have some ideas, but they are only preliminary concepts at present, and there may be some difficulties in their implementation."
Old Master Yu put down his teacup, his eyes firm and sharp, as if he could see through Xiao Yi's thoughts. He spoke slowly and forcefully, looking directly at the two of them: "Have you ever thought about why this base was chosen to be built here in the first place, and why the underground shelter was built so quickly? Haven't you ever had any doubts about these issues?"
Yu Wei's voice was filled with surprise, like a stone dropped into a calm lake, stirring up ripples. He asked incredulously, "Are you saying this wasn't chosen because of the apocalypse, but because someone prepared for it?"
Old Man Yu nodded, confirming Yu Wei's guess. His deep eyes revealed a sense of vicissitudes and wisdom. He continued, "Yes, this place wasn't chosen because of the apocalypse. In fact, the construction of this base and the underground shelter were all prepared in advance."
His voice was low and powerful, as if he was telling an ancient story. Yu Wei couldn't help but feel a chill, as if she was in a world full of unknown and mystery.
"This kind of large-scale project certainly can't be completed overnight," Old Man Yu said slowly, "Are you planning to go out and build a small base yourself?"
His tone revealed a mixture of doubt and expectation, as if he was waiting for their answer. Yu Wei took a deep breath and said firmly, "We do have this idea."
His words echoed in the air, as if announcing a major decision. Old Man Yu smiled slightly and nodded, expressing his approval and support for this idea.
