Chapter 186: The Plan to Go to the Bright Base
The sudden food crisis at Taoyuan Base was so easily resolved by the aroma of pomelo.
It wasn't until night had completely fallen and the sky was filled with countless stars that Qin Zhuo returned to the villa under the moonlight.
The villa was brightly lit, and warm light streamed through the windows onto the courtyard path.
When Youxiang saw Qin Zhuo enter, she snorted coldly, turned her head away arrogantly, and started chatting warmly with Qiao Yue beside her, as if she hadn't seen Qin Zhuo at all.
Qin Zhuo stood at the entrance and was slightly taken aback. Looking at Youxiang's appearance, he was a little confused. His brows furrowed slightly and his eyes were full of doubt.
What's wrong with Little Yuzu?
Why did you suddenly get angry?
Who upset her today?
He subconsciously took a few steps forward, just about to speak, "Little Yuzu, you..."
Before she could finish speaking, Yu Xiang interrupted her angrily.
She crossed her arms and puffed out her cheeks, "I don't want to talk to Zhuozhuo right now."
Zhuozhuo left without saying goodbye, and stayed out all day without sending a single message.
She was really angry.
Seeing that Youxiang was truly angry, Qin Zhuo carefully recalled the events of the day and roughly understood why she was upset.
He opened his mouth, just about to say something to coax her, when his stomach started rumbling loudly, a sound that seemed particularly abrupt in the living room.
Qin Zhuo was in a hurry to come back; he hadn't had dinner yet.
Although Youxiang was still holding her breath and wanted to deliberately ignore Qin Zhuo, her feigned indifference crumbled the moment she heard the rumbling in his stomach.
She immediately instructed Bronson, the butler standing to the side, "Butler, bring out the dinner that was left for him."
Honestly, it's so late and she still doesn't know how to eat dinner. Luckily, she specifically asked the housekeeper to leave some for her.
Bronson bowed slightly and said respectfully, "Yes, Miss."
After saying that, he turned and walked towards the kitchen.
As Qin Zhuo watched Youxiang instruct Bronson, the corners of his mouth unconsciously turned up slightly, his eyes filled with tenderness.
He asked softly, "Little Yuzu, can you have dinner with me?"
Yuxiang turned her head away and said stubbornly, "I won't go with you."
Qin Zhuo didn't take her refusal to heart. Instead, he reached out, grabbed Youxiang's wrist, and pulled her up, saying, "Let's go to the restaurant together."
Yu Xiang pretended to struggle a few times, muttering, "Let me go, I won't stay with you."
But the strength of its struggle was pitifully weak, and in no time it followed Qin Zhuo's force and walked towards the living room together.
"It's quite amusing to see this young couple having a tiff."
Qiao Yue watched Qin Zhuo and Youxiang leave, a teasing smile on her lips. She took a sip of cola and said slowly.
Inside the restaurant.
Youxiang sat opposite Qin Zhuo, holding a round black pearl in her hand.
The pearl had a deep, dark color, as if it had been retrieved from a deep-sea dream, with a faint iridescent sheen on its surface.
This pearl was given to her by Qin Zhuo just now.
When he handed the pearl to her, her eyes lit up instantly, and her previously angry face immediately broke into a smile.
She stopped being temperamental and gently stroked the pearl with her fingers, clearly enjoying it.
Yu Xiang put away the black pearls, then rested her chin on her hands, staring intently at Qin Zhuo, who was focused on eating.
“Zhuozhuo,” she suddenly said, “next time you go somewhere, you have to tell me first. You can’t go to see Li Hai like you did this time and leave without saying a word.”
Qin Zhuo stopped what he was doing when he heard Youxiang's words, looked up at her, and said, "Okay, I'll report to you from now on."
Upon hearing Qin Zhuo's reply, Youxiang's eyebrows curved into a smile, revealing a pair of adorable tiger teeth.
After finishing his meal, Qin Zhuo slowly wiped his mouth with a tissue, then said with a serious expression, "The password to Zhao Yu's phone has been cracked. Although the chat history inside was deleted, I have had it recovered using professional methods."
As he spoke, he gently pushed the phone towards Yuzuru.
Yu Xiang looked down at her phone and said softly, "So, Zhuo Zhuo spends the whole day busy with this."
Qin Zhuo nodded and explained, "Li Hai knows a hacker named Guo You, who is quite skilled. I asked him to take me to Guo You for help, and that's how we solved the problem of the lock screen password and chat history."
After reading the records on her phone, Yuxiang put it down, looked up, and said thoughtfully, "I didn't expect there to be such a talent in the base. From now on, everyone entering the base, including corpses, should fill out a form about their strengths."
Qin Zhuo nodded slightly in agreement, saying, "This way, we can better arrange suitable positions for them in the future. By the way, what are your thoughts after reading the chat history?"
Yu Xiang's smile suddenly turned cold: "Ye Yu Fan is really delusional! He doesn't even know his own limitations, yet he dares to dream of occupying my base!"
"I plan to organize a group of people to go to the Bright Base in three days. I want to show him that I, Little Yuzu, am not someone to be trifled with!"
She suddenly clenched her fists, a sharp glint in her eyes.
Qin Zhuo did not directly reject her plan, but pondered for a moment and asked softly, "Wouldn't three days be too rushed? There are quite a few internal affairs at the base recently."
Yuxiang tilted her head slightly after hearing Qin Zhuo's words, thought for a moment, and said, "Then let's set it for a week later. We can take advantage of these few days to get things settled at the base."
Qin Zhuo nodded, "Yes, I'll go too."
Yu Xiang's eyes lit up with a bright light, "Of course you have to come with us. We left in such a sorry state before, so we must go back in style and show them what we've got."
Qin Zhuo looked at Youxiang with doting eyes.
Little Yuzu, feel free to do whatever you want; he will always be there for you.
In the days that followed, Yu Xiang was exceptionally busy.
Every morning, she is always the first to go up the mountain to carefully inspect the progress of the reconstruction after the fire.
Whenever something is needed, whether it's building materials or plant seeds, Yuka will always be there to help, in order to restore the place to its pre-fire state as quickly as possible.
At the same time, Yuxiang also set her sights on the existing ranch within the base.
Looking at the small ranch, she thought to herself, "This ranch is too small to raise many livestock. As the number of humans in the base increases, there won't be enough meat to eat."
So she ordered the ranch to be expanded and relocated.
The new breeding area was chosen at the foot of the mountain to facilitate the centralized treatment of animal manure, which can be converted into organic fertilizer for fertile farmland.
Because of Zhao Yu's arson incident, she also added a fire protection system to the entire base.
