Ever since I stood up for her last time, Qiutian has been very clingy.
She's not a combatant, and she doesn't need to go down into the ruins.
Even though the entrance has now been opened, she did not go down to dig with the team members.
Instead, he stayed by Qin Che's side all day.
To perform some servant duties.
This made Qin Che very uncomfortable.
"The entrance to the ruins has already been opened, so why are you hanging around in front of me all day instead of going down to work?" Qin Che frowned.
Qiu Tian exclaimed, "I'm just worried that you won't have anyone to take care of you. Besides, it was Captain Wu who asked me to stay."
Qin Che: ……
She changed her clothes into a silk dress, which was very expensive. It was unclear whether the members of the action team had pooled their money to buy it for her.
She changed into loose-fitting clothes, a bit baggy, and deliberately opened the collar for autumn, her cheeks flushed, her eyes looking like silk threads.
Even Qin Che couldn't help but take a second look.
Aren't you hungry?
Qin Che rolled his eyes, sat down, opened his lunchbox, and slowly ate.
The boxed meals at the camp were quite interesting, as they were divided into three tiers.
The worst quality, of course, consists of various pastes, pancakes, and dumplings made from synthetic starch, served with some green vegetables, without any seasoning. They are quite unpalatable and can be considered the cheapest kind of nutritional paste.
The middle tier includes eggs, but it still consists of vegetables paired with a thicker rice porridge, and contains some salt.
The highest grade, and also the most expensive.
But it only contains a small amount of meat, enough to eat in one bite, hot rice and vegetables, plus a little starchy crop, such as potatoes.
However, Qin Che's lunchbox was not among these three categories; it contained fish, meat, eggs, and some green vegetables.
All naturally grown.
There is milk to drink every night.
There's also fruit every now and then to replenish sugar.
It's nothing compared to the food in the world Qin Che lived in before he transmigrated.
But this was already the finest meal a regent could afford in the wasteland.
Looking at the ordinary-looking food in front of me.
Qin Che sighed.
He made many connections, including the three tiers of boxed meals.
It seems that resources are still scarce in the desert.
Right now, all we can do is ensure that people don't go hungry.
However, it cannot improve people's dining standards.
As the old saying goes, food is the most important thing for people.
But Qin Che was helpless.
This is already the best he could do to take care of things.
Unless everyone is relocated from the desert and settled in the garden.
But it will take decades to gradually improve people's livelihoods.
Autumn sat to the side, resting her chin on her hands, watching Qin Che's worried expression, completely captivated.
Qin Che isn't stupid either.
He's seen Qiu Tian's behavior these past few days.
This girl has been deeply in love with me for a long time, but since she's my subordinate, I can only try to have as little contact with her as possible.
But now he inspects the camp every day.
Autumn followed him everywhere, and they even spent time together at night. After a while, Qin Che couldn't take it anymore.
Food and sex are human nature.
Qin Che felt there was nothing to hide about it.
He's not a moral saint.
He once made a wish for himself: to marry several wives in the wasteland, driven by a heart full of landlord and rich man's mentality...
But he's been accumulating capital like crazy these past few years, without marrying many wives.
Looking back now, autumn was actually quite nice.
Safanyin wanted to help him with his work, which would benefit Qin Che's career.
Lina was in charge of organizing and managing Qin Che's confidants and loyal followers. Some things could be done without Sa Fanyin, but not without Lina.
What we need most is a caring person like autumn who understands our needs and concerns.
As for Xiao Shitou... Qin Che never saw her as a woman, but loved her as his own daughter.
In fact, in the eyes of someone like Qin Che...
He traveled through time.
I experienced a lot in the wasteland.
He has seen through a lot of the ways of the world.
I stopped caring about feelings a long time ago.
In the wasteland, what does it matter if you have feelings for a wife?
Look at its effects!
They're all just tools.
Both can be used!
As long as he's comfortable, Qin Che doesn't have many moral or emotional constraints.
He put down his chopsticks and looked at Qiu Tian, saying, "I'll be going back in a few days, and the inspection here will be over. But Wu Ming and the others, as well as the headquarters of the mobile team, won't be leaving for the time being. Think it over carefully these next few days and decide for yourself whether to stay or come with me."
Autumn was taken aback.
Her eyes suddenly reddened.
This statement is very clear.
Qin Che planned to take her away.
But if Qiu wants to stay in the team, Qin Che won't force her.
It was because of Qiu Tian's good service and attentive care during these days that Qin Che said those words.
Autumn wiped away her tears and said, "The captain told me a long time ago that I could go with you, and that's what I was planning to do too."
"Have you thought it through?" Qin Che looked into her eyes.
"I thought about it years ago," Qiu Tian said softly, pursing her lips as she held back her tears.
Just then, a large hand covered the back of her hand.
Autumn's heart softened instantly.
"I won't mince words with you. With your abilities, I can't arrange any work for you in the cabinet, but you can stay by my side and be my attendant. Are you willing?"
“Autumn…is willing.”
Attendants are close people who can accompany Qin Che all day long, spending the most time with him, even more than Princess Sa.
How could autumn possibly be unwilling?
She just wanted to spend more time with Qin Che.
She didn't want to be separated from him.
We're all adults; once things are cleared up, we can let go of the tension.
That night, autumn voluntarily shed its silken robes, revealing a beautiful, radiant beauty under the moonlight.
Didn't rest all night.
...
During this period, Wei Tuozhi has been traveling around the southwest region.
He was tasked with the Regent's mission, and the entire intelligence department was working day and night to investigate the results.
Why would the Duke of Qin choose such a woman?
"I'm not sure either, but it's definitely useful."
"What's the use? I really can't understand it. This Jiang Yuejian is just the daughter of a crocodile-headed woman. What's so special about her?"
"I told you I don't know, why are you asking me?"
Wei Tuozhi pinched the bridge of his nose and scolded, "Shut up, all of you!"
Upon hearing this, the surrounding subordinates all fell silent.
At this very moment, they were in the old city, and in a dungeon, they found the person that Duke Qin was looking for.
Jiang Yuejian.
Finding this woman wasn't particularly difficult, but even Wei Tuozhi himself couldn't figure out what this operation was all about.
A crocodile-headed woman
What makes him worthy of the Duke of Qin's attention?
Even he couldn't see anything special about this woman.
No matter how you look at him, he's just an ordinary person.
Inside the cell right in front of them.
A female prisoner, dirty and disheveled, leaned against the wall, her long hair hanging down, obscuring her face.
She sat there motionless...
