The setting sun casts a golden glow across the land.
As soon as Li Xin'er entered the base gate, she saw a group of soldiers fully equipped and ready to go, forming several teams, presumably preparing to go out.
In addition, from the parking lot direction, a long line of large trucks were queuing up to pass through the gate for inspection.
Li Xin'er glanced around and thought to herself that at this hour, it was almost dark and they were rushing out, so it must be something urgent.
She didn't stop and walked straight in. As she passed a large red truck, a familiar voice came from inside.
"goddess!"
Li Xin'er turned her head and saw Qian Leduo sticking his head out of the car window from the driver's seat, waving happily at Li Xin'er.
"Qian Leduo, are you going out?"
As Li Xin'er spoke, she glanced towards the passenger seat and saw a young man in military uniform whom she had never seen before.
When Qian Leduo saw that Li Xin'er could call him by his name accurately, his smile widened even more, and he nodded happily.
"Yes, there is a mission."
As he spoke, he looked around to make sure no one was paying attention, then stuck his head out even further, his upper body almost sticking out of the window. It seemed as if he would have rolled out if he hadn't been secured by a seatbelt.
Qian Leduo lowered his voice and said:
"Goddess, I heard there's going to be a huge blizzard. If you can store up some supplies, please prepare as much as possible."
Li Xin'er responded calmly, "Okay, thank you for reminding me."
Seeing her indifferent expression, Qian Leduo assumed she didn't believe him and wanted to explain further.
Just then, the car in front started moving. Qian Leduo didn't have time to say anything more, quickly sat down, started the car, and called out to Li Xin'er:
"Goddess! I'll go take care of things now. Brother Ye is still at the base. If you need anything, just go find him."
Li Xin'er nodded slightly, "Okay, have a safe journey."
As he spoke, he lifted his foot and continued walking inside, also making room for the car to avoid being hit.
Because Qian Leduo had called her quite loudly, people around heard it and all turned their curious gazes toward Li Xin'er.
I was secretly thinking to myself that the guy was making a big fuss about calling her "goddess," and it seemed kind of silly.
The moment Li Xin'er turned her head, everyone saw her face clearly, and their eyes nearly popped out of their sockets in amazement.
It has to be said, her looks absolutely deserve the title of goddess.
Her appearance, clothing, and demeanor seemed completely out of place with their dusty appearance.
Li Xin'er left calmly and composedly amidst the astonished and curious gazes of the crowd.
No sooner had she left than people began to whisper among themselves.
"Who was that woman just now? She's so beautiful!"
"It seems to be the one who lives behind the office building."
She stayed at the base for several days and often walked around the base. Many people saw her and recognized her as someone who lived behind the office building.
"So people live in the back? Isn't that a parking lot?"
Not everyone can enter the office building area, so many people who haven't been there have no idea what it is.
“They have RVs, several of them, and living in them is much more comfortable than in this tent warehouse.”
"Tsk tsk, the RV is quite comfortable. She must be someone important to be able to live in one."
"I don't know, but I heard someone say that she seems to be a celebrity."
These words surprised many people.
"star?!"
The person who spoke first shrugged.
"I've only heard about it; I don't follow celebrities and don't know anything about these things."
"No wonder she's so beautiful, it's not surprising since she's a celebrity."
"That must be some officer's wife or family member? It can't be a mistress, can it..."
The group of people exchanged glances, then smiled knowingly at the same time.
You guys have a lot of free time!
A deep, stern male voice startled the group.
When he turned around, he saw a man dressed as a temporary worker in a transport team uniform.
The initial fear and trepidation vanished instantly, replaced by anger. Someone aggressively reached out and shoved Qin Siye's shoulder.
"Are you sick? Who were you just yelling at?"
He thought that reaching out would push the person off balance, but to his surprise, Qin Siye stood still and didn't move.
He remained in the same position, his gaze fixed unfriendly on the person who had spoken.
"I'm yelling at you!"
As he spoke, he glanced up at the others behind that man.
"And you! Watch your mouths, and stop using your filthy thoughts to speculate about others."
Then someone retorted sarcastically:
"What? What gold nugget? You can't even mention it?"
The others joined in the jeering.
"That's someone's goddess, you definitely can't say anything about her, haha..."
"Haha, I don't know who she is, but she's definitely not this poor kid's mistress."
The person who initially reached out to push Qin Siye felt confident because he had more people on his side, and arrogantly extended his index finger, trying to poke Qin Siye's shoulder while speaking.
Before his fingers could even touch his shoulder, Qin Siye grabbed them with one hand and twisted them back.
The man immediately screamed in pain, his body retreating in the direction the finger had bent.
"Ah! Ah! You... Ah!"
When the others saw Qin Siye make a move, they immediately rushed forward. Qin Siye raised his phoenix eyes slightly and was about to kick him.
"Qin Siye".
Just then, Li Xin'er's voice successfully made him stop what he was doing.
The others also stopped and looked in the direction of the sound, only to see Li Xin'er, who had walked away, standing in front of them at some point.
The moment Qin Siye saw Li Xin'er, he immediately flung the fingers that were gripping the person aside as if they were something dirty.
The man also fell to the side, staggering, but fortunately he reacted quickly enough to regain his footing and didn't fall to the ground.
After loosening his grip, Qin Siye looked like a child who had done something wrong, his eyes filled with panic.
He put his hands behind his back and quietly wiped them on the back of his shirt.
"Um...I..."
Qin Siye stammered, awkwardly wanting to explain, but unsure how to begin.
Li Xin'er looked at the other people. They were not wearing military uniforms, but their own civilian clothes, and their physiques did not look like those of soldiers.
Since they can stay in the base and look down on temporary workers like Qin Siye, they must be people from the various official offices.
Although she had just left, she had clearly heard their conversation.
She hadn't originally intended to pay any attention to them, because she didn't care about them at all; what these people said or did had no effect on her whatsoever.
Besides, she can't possibly care about what people say in private... Paying attention to these trivial matters is just asking for trouble.
But who would have thought that Qin Siye, that idiot, would suddenly rush out, and just as a fight was about to break out, she couldn't help but turn back to stop it.
Li Xin'er's gaze carried an invisible sense of oppression, as if all their ugliness had nowhere to hide in her eyes.
Feeling guilty under her gaze, the group turned away to avoid her eyes.
