"Don't tell me that. What my Qiao Qiao said is what I mean."
Pei Shi'an was too lazy to listen to his nonsense and said indifferently, "She's right. The original intention of building Noah's Ark was not only to provide refuge for our families, but also to save humanity. Have you forgotten?"
The family elders in the conference room discussed the matter and all nodded in agreement.
"Could it be that we are the only ones who are human? Those outside are not human?"
Pei Shi'an's eyes were cold, and his slender fingers tapped the table lightly. "My grandfather also said that if you only listen to the advice of one person, it means that he wants to dominate and become king. He is quite ambitious and willing to listen to opinions from all sides. Only then can he be a good head of the family."
What he said was suggestive. The smile on Qin Ye's face gradually disappeared, and he stared at Pei Shi'an with a gloomy face.
Seeing other family elders nodding their heads, the balance in his heart began to tilt towards the Pei family, and he was extremely angry.
He slammed the table and said coldly, "But your grandfather is gone."
Pei Shi'an folded his hands and said dismissively, "So what? My grandfather is gone, but I'm still here. How much credit did Patriarch Qin have for the creation of Noah's Ark? How dare you speak to me like this? If my grandfather were here, you wouldn't dare to say a word. Aren't you just trying to take advantage of my youth?"
"Then you're probably mistaken. No one in the Pei family is easy to mess with."
The cold voice, filled with endless chill, made people afraid from the bottom of their hearts.
This kind of momentum is indeed what a member of the Pei family should have. Qin Ye suddenly felt a little deflated, pursed his lips and kept silent.
"Yes, the Pei family is the initiator of Noah's Ark. And don't forget, many special areas can only be opened by people from the Pei family."
Uncle Xu also stood up to support his young master.
"Very good, very good. The Pei family has made the greatest contribution. If we really want to recommend someone who has a say, it must be the young master of the Pei family."
"I agree too. I'll vote for the Pei family."
"Vote for the Pei family."
There is an endless stream of people following the trend, and the Pei family's influence is irreplaceable.
Qin Ye's face was completely gray. He suppressed the cruelty in his eyes, forced a smile and said, "Of course. The strength of the Pei family has always been obvious to all. Okay, then as you said, we will open it to the outside world. If something goes wrong and causes casualties on the Ark, you will be held responsible. You know, low-level people love to fight for power and cause trouble."
His words also made others start to worry.
It is indeed difficult to control when there are too many people.
"It's just to avoid natural disasters. It's not like we'll be stuck on the Ark forever. Even if we have to live here for decades, there are ways to manage it. But that's all for the future. Now that the communication equipment is broken, we need to rescue those people as soon as possible and let them know that there's a place of refuge here."
Qiao Shu knew that time waits for no one and the global freeze was already entering the countdown.
"Okay, if you need help, I can dispatch some to you."
"If you need equipment and vehicles, I have them here."
"It's just that the Ark is quite far from the city, so you need to hurry."
The other family leaders and elders were all willing to contribute, and Qiao Shu accepted them one by one.
After leaving the meeting room, Qiao Shu gathered her people and expressed her ideas.
"Do you want to go rescue someone? Okay, I'll go with you."
Huangfu Chengxiao was the first to speak in agreement.
Mo Jue also raised his hand, "I'll go with you."
"I want to go too!"
Jiang Yiyao was no longer afraid of the cold and just wanted to follow Qiao Shu.
"No, Brother Zhou. You, Xiaoze, Luoyang, and Yaoyao, stay here and help Uncle Xu and the others guard the Ark. Although the Qin family has temporarily backed off, they still have considerable ambitions. They're afraid they'll close the Ark's gates while we're gone, and then we'll be trapped outside."
Qiao Shu was not at all confident about a despicable man like Qin Ye, so she had to be on guard against him.
"Okay, leave it to us."
Xu Tingzhou and Lin Yanze patted their chests.
"People from the Pei family are also coming here and will be able to help you. Otherwise, the Qin family is so powerful and you will be in danger."
Although the grandfather of the Pei family is no longer with us, the Pei family members and forces are still there in various places. They are all rushing over to lend them a helping hand.
"OK!"
He Nianzhen raised her hands aggrievedly and said, "I, I'd better stay in the Ark. I can't help much."
Qiao Shu shrugged. "I never planned to take you out with me. Don't worry, just stay in the Ark."
He Nianzhen breathed a sigh of relief, then stared at Huangfu Chengxiao and said, "Chengxiao, are you going too? It's so dangerous out there? Why don't you stay in the Ark with me? We don't know anyone outside, so why bother traveling all over the place for so many strangers?"
Huangfu Chengxiao glanced at her coldly and said, "If your mother was freezing to death outside, wouldn't you go and save her?"
He Nianzhen was stunned and stammered, "Ah? She, isn't she here?"
"Don't be so selfish."
Huangfu Chengxiao replied coldly, and He Nianzhen blushed and stopped talking.
[No wonder He Nianzhen used to play weak women, or in silly and sweet idol dramas. Even in movies, she always played gentle and weak characters. I used to think her acting was good, but when I think about it carefully, it's all this kind of character setting.]
She's so desperate that she had to participate in a variety show, especially a survival show. Now I really don't have a very good impression of her. She's so cold and selfish. She must have a strong background to have made it to the top.
[Yeah, natural disasters and man-made disasters, only the rich can enter the Ark? That's too selfish. Qiao Shu is truly a righteous person, and her character is truly good. Only she still cares about the people in the frozen world and wants to save them.]
[I'm crying! My sister Qiao is really nice and lovable.]
The barrage of comments went crazy.
The temperature outside had reached minus forty degrees Celsius. Qiao Shu changed into warm clothes, grabbed some things, and headed out with her men and a special vehicle.
Before the temperature dropped to a lower level, helicopters that could fly were dispatched to search for people.
Qiao Shu and the others arrived at the nearest city, B, and could hardly see anyone in the dilapidated buildings.
"There's too much snow ahead, and our progress will be slow."
Although they were driving a special car, there was a lot of snow accumulated before.
Qiao Shu looked at the green map on their device and asked, "Where is the place with the greatest integrity here?"
"It should be the library in the center, which has not been destroyed yet."
"Okay, let's go there."
When they arrived near the library, the car was still moving slowly, so Qiao Shu, Pei Shi'an and the others simply got out of the car and walked through the snow to the library entrance.
