Wife?! Chen Chao's gaze turned hostile. How dare this guy call someone else's wife? Although the two were dating, they still had a child!
"Jiang Junke! We've already helped you, don't call someone 'wife' just to save face! Apologize to Xiao Rong right now!"
Xie Nan, Xie Bei, and the others solemnly rolled up their sleeves, realizing that Dawn Base was truly crooked from the very beginning.
"Actually... that... he really is my husband!"
Chen Chao nodded seriously, "Yes! I know, so I apologize!"
quiet......
"Oh, wait a minute! He's really your husband?"
Chen Chao's momentum weakened, and he didn't even know where to put his clenched fist.
Didn't they just get together? Calling each other "wife" and "husband" is just a formality.
Hahahaha!
Lin's father stepped forward and introduced, "Brother Chen, everyone has been busy lately and forgot to introduce you."
He is Jiang Junke, the commander of the Dawn Base, Rong Meizi's husband, and Xiao Nian's father!
Xie Nan's mouth formed an "O" shape. "Wow! You guys are actually family! I thought Auntie had found Brother Jiang a stepfather."
Then, he awkwardly scratched his head and changed the subject, "Then why did you two separate? And how did Uncle Jiang become the base chief here?"
Jiang Junke cleared his throat and chuckled twice. "Before the apocalypse, I was busy with work and didn't make it back!"
As for Dawn Base, I actually wanted to build a safe fortress to bring my wife over, but things rarely go as planned, so it gradually expanded into a base!
Xie Nan understood. "No wonder. The reason we couldn't find you was because you went out to look for Aunt Jiang, right?"
"Not entirely. I know Rongrong is at the Southern Security Base."
Jiang Junke, looking mysterious, was then attacked by Jiang Rong.
"Ouch! Honey, why did you hit me again? That hurts!"
"So you contacted your son because you couldn't remember me, right? Fine! Jiang Junke!"
"No, honey, you misunderstood me. I did contact Xiaonian before the hailstorm started. He told me that there would be extreme weather soon. The situation was urgent, so I could only relocate the people in the base first, but it was too late."
Speaking of the survivors who died under the rubble, Jiang Junke felt downcast, because he had failed to protect them.
"It's not your fault, honey. You've done your best, and I think they'll all be grateful to you."
Jiang Junke pleaded pitifully for comfort, "Can I come with you?"
Jiang Rong coldly refused, "No, you are still the base commander here, you can't come back with us."
"I don't want to be the base commander anymore! They've already rebelled anyway, so I might as well go back with you!"
Upon hearing this, the deputy base commander, who had just arrived, immediately stepped forward and hugged Jiang Junke's leg.
He was right. Early in the morning, the base commander was furtively packing his luggage. He never used to carry a backpack when he left, but this time he actually did, which was very unusual!
"Base Commander, you can't leave! What will I do if you leave!"
"Renli! It's just in time that you've arrived. From today onwards, you are the base commander of Dawn Base!"
Zhang Renli cried loudly, "I won't do it! If you leave, you must take me with you! I won't be the deputy base commander either! I'll go with you."
The two argued as if it were a life-or-death separation, neither willing to back down.
Qi Tong came running over, panting, carrying two bundles on her back.
"Boss! Why did you run away so fast! I just finished packing my things and you disappeared. Were you trying to ditch me?!"
Five minutes later, the three people lined up in a row, each carrying their own backpack and bowing their heads, waiting for their fate.
"I think it's not impossible. Things have recovered quite a bit here. As long as we find the right people, we can go back with peace of mind."
Lin Anran received a signal from her future father-in-law and expressed her thoughts.
She didn't want to see Aunt Jiang constantly reminded of her loved one and unable to eat.
Jiang Junke nodded quickly, "Yes! Yes! Ranran is right, I think this method is very feasible!"
After much discussion, Li Xin was inexplicably pushed forward to become the new base chief.
Li Xin, who was inexplicably standing on the steps, opened his innocent eyes and accepted everyone's congratulations.
"Congratulations! Captain Li, oh! No, I mean Base Commander Li! I knew you were got the makings of something big. Please look after me if you ever need anything!"
Huang Wan, along with his gang of brothers, swaggered through the fawning crowd.
"Hey! It's Commander Li! You've really changed since we last met! I, Huang, and my brothers congratulate you! If you ever need anything, just come to me. I'll consider you a friend!"
Li Xin clenched his fist, his eyes glazed over, "Th-thank you!"
"Hahahaha! Him? A base commander?! Don't be ridiculous! He's such a coward!"
Wang Peng's mocking voice came from afar. The group of people had left, and he had nothing left to hide from.
"Do you all agree to make him the base commander? I disagree!"
"I disagree!"
"We disagree!"
The group of people following behind Wang Peng also protested. These past few days have been the most difficult for them. They finally managed to get rid of those people, and this time, they couldn't wait any longer!
Li Xin's tense mood immediately turned serious upon seeing the troublemakers.
"Wang Peng! You'd better tone it down. This is our place, not your territory to do whatever you want. Your objections are useless. I'm your boss now. You have to do what I say. Stop thinking about seizing power every day."
"You! Hahahaha! You're quite capable! What can you do to me all by yourself!"
Wang Peng laughed loudly, "With your pathetic skills, don't embarrass yourself! Brothers, what do you think? Should we hold a new election for base leader?"
"want!"
He turned around, feigning helplessness, and said, "Look, everyone agrees, so please step down as the candidate!"
"Get down! Get down! Get down!"
"Bang!"
Wang Peng's henchman suddenly collapsed to the ground without warning, while another henchman shakily squatted down and put his hand close to his nostrils.
"He's...he's dead, boss!"
The lackey was foaming at the mouth, his eyes wide open.
Wang Peng gasped in shock, "Li Xin! What have you done! He was a living, breathing person! If you dare to kill someone now, are you going to kill all of us?!"
Li Xin looked at him coldly, "Of course he did something wrong. You haven't forgotten what he hid under his bed, have you!"
"You! You can't just kill people like that, especially not with poison!"
Li Xin smiled slightly, "When did I release it? Did you see it?"
