Chapter 156 Communication
"The base currently has no base commander." Uncle Sheng shook his head. To be more precise, there has never been one.
It has been more than a year since the end of the world, almost two years, and there is still no base director. This means that several major forces are jointly controlling the base.
Ye Jin knew clearly that none of these upper-class people were willing to give in, and they were just checking and balancing each other.
Now the Ye family has completely fallen from grace.
"Miss, we're here." Ye Sheng parked the car, and Ana Shen's car also stopped behind him.
As soon as Ye Jin and the others got out of the car, Yu Zichen inside sensed it and ran out.
"Sister!" Yu Zichen wanted to pounce on her, but stopped in front of Ye Jin. He was already so old, it would not be appropriate for him to hug his sister.
Ye Jin touched the top of his head and asked, "Why do you look like you've grown taller?"
"Brother Xiaochen." Zhang Yue was very happy to see Yu Zichen.
"Xiaoyue," Yu Zichen asked, "did you encounter any danger along the way?"
He glanced at the little cat in her arms and said, "Little cat has advanced again?"
He hasn't stopped practicing his superpowers during this period, so the mutant beasts are advancing very quickly.
When Yu Zichen looked up, he saw Xia Li getting out of the car.
He immediately went over and hugged Xia Li, his voice choking with sobs as he spoke through the voice changer: "Brother Xia Li! You're here?"
Xia Li felt warm in his heart when Yu Zichen hugged him. He could feel Yu Zichen's concern for him.
He patted Yu Zichen on the back and said, "Alright, you're all grown up now, don't be like this."
Later, Ye Zheng and Hu Shuyu came out.
"Uncle, aunt." Ye Jin was a little surprised to see Hu Shuyu, and then felt distressed.
Her aunt has always been a very gentle and delicate woman. This time, she suddenly seemed to have aged ten years. She must have worked very hard to support the Ye family.
"Xiao Jin." Hu Shuyu immediately went over and hugged Ye Jin: "It's good that you're back. We're all reunited."
When Ye Jin was a child in the Ye family's old house, she was the one who took care of him. She had liked this child since he was young. Xiao Jin also went to the West City base to save Xiao Xu, which made her feel even more uncomfortable.
As an elder, she not only did not have a good impression of the Ye family, but also asked Xiao Jin, a child, to take risks.
…
Ye Xu waited until everyone was settled before returning home in the evening.
When he came back, Ye Jin, Ye Zheng and Hu Shuyu could all tell that he was in a bad mood.
Seeing that everyone had returned, Ye Xu also let go of his anger. Not wanting to affect the reunion, he happily finished the reunion dinner.
After everyone else left, only the Ye family was left.
Hu Shuyu then asked, "Xiao Xu, is things not going well?"
Ye Xu rubbed his brows and tried to speak softly, "Mom, don't worry about this anymore. You've been working hard enough these days."
"It's all my incompetence." Ye Zheng blamed himself. He had no special abilities, and now everything depended on his son alone. He felt bad seeing Ye Xu busying around when he was not at home these days.
"Dad, what are you talking about? It's good enough that you can manage these family businesses well now."
Although Ye Zheng has shared some of the burden, he is ultimately an ordinary person without any special abilities. He can manage the company like he did before the apocalypse, but he can't really help with other things.
"Uncle, don't be anxious. Look at your wrinkles. Am I back now?" Ye Jin felt that the biggest problem of the Ye family now was their lack of strength.
"Xiao Jin, you and Xiao Chen are both children, just let your elder brother take care of these things." Ye Zheng just said that he felt sorry for Ye Xu, and now that he came to Ye Jin, he didn't want to tire Ye Jin out at all.
"Xiao Jin, although our Ye family is in decline, we can still support you." His sister only left behind these two children, and he would rather die of exhaustion than let Xiao Jin and Xiao Chen suffer.
Yu Zichen sighed secretly. After he returned to the capital base, his uncle asked him to go to the store to inspect it almost every day.
Teach him how to manage the Ye family's property, and then tell him that if something happens to Ye Xu one day, he must take good care of his sister.
He really didn't think it was necessary. His sister could beat ten of him! It would be better to let him go out and kill zombies to improve his physical fitness.
Seeing Xiaochen's expression, Ye Jin probably realized that his uncle had never given him any dangerous work.
Elders are like this. No matter how outstanding the child is, they are always worried about him/her. They think the child is still a child and want to protect him/her under their wings and let him/her survive in what they think is a safe environment.
"Uncle, do you think our Ye family can really hold out for long in its current situation?"
Ye Jin said bluntly: "If we were a small family, it would be fine, but we fell from above. The Yan family used the eldest brother's blood to feed the zombies. How could they let us go?"
It’s better to be clear-headed. Even if the Ye family doesn’t dare to take action because of the Yan family’s power in the capital base, the Yan family won’t think so.
The Yan family is only afraid that the Ye family will rise and become their enemy, and they will only want to take advantage of their current lack of strength to kill them.
"What? Use your blood to feed zombies?" Hu Shuyu stood up, ran to Ye Xu, and tears suddenly fell.
"Xiao Xu, is this true?"
Ye Xu's face looked grim. Ye Jin didn't expect that her aunt didn't know about this yet.
Seeing Ye Xu remained silent, Hu Shuyu turned to ask Ye Zheng, "Did they really use Xiao Xu's blood to feed the zombies? Why didn't you tell me?"
"Mom, it's all over. I didn't tell you because I was afraid you would be sad." Ye Xu comforted her, "It's all right now."
"You didn't tell me because you were afraid I'd feel bad. But am I not feeling bad now?" Hu Shuyu burst into tears. "Don't think I don't know. No wonder they want to hunt you down. They're so cruel!"
"Chasing?" Ye Jin glanced at Yu Zichen.
Yu Zichen immediately said, "I don't know either."
He had been with Ye Zheng every day during this period and had no idea that his elder brother had to endure so much alone.
Ye Jin's face darkened as he said, "Brother, what's going on? We can't just keep quiet for your own good. It's not enough for you to handle this alone. We need everyone to work together to find a way for the Ye family to stand up again!"
