Lu Yuan then nodded and said, "Thank you very much for Captain Sun's guidance!"
Captain Sun smiled slightly, then picked up his teacup and said, "These three teams are all old hands of mine, and Qian Liang was also one of my former underlings, so please don't take his past temper tantrums to heart. Just let it go for my sake. I'll invite you out for a meal sometime to settle things and clear things up. What do you think?"
Lu Yuan finally understood the other party's intention. It turned out that he had caused trouble by going to his territory, and now the other party was here to settle things. This Qian Liang was indeed a person with connections everywhere. He didn't expect that even the brigade leader had been alarmed. It is said that one does not hit a smiling face. Brigade Leader Sun also said so. Lu Yuan could only ask for a way out.
"Don't worry, what happened between Qian Liang and me was just a minor disagreement. As long as he doesn't provoke me, I generally won't take the initiative to fight. And with what you said, I'm relieved. From now on, let's all just behave ourselves and focus on our work!"
After hearing this, Captain Sun's face immediately showed a look of relief, and he nodded in satisfaction.
After chatting casually for a while, Lu Yuan returned to his dormitory to pack his things. After all, the Seventh Team's accommodation was in the inner city, and Lu Yuan was about to take up his post in the Seventh Team, so he came back to pack his things in preparation for leaving the outer city.
However, since Lu Yuan was not very familiar with the survivor base here, Hei Zi had heard that Lu Yuan was going to be transferred to the Seventh Team before he left. Hei Zi was immediately a little emotional. After all, a friend he had just made was about to go to the inner city, and there might not be many opportunities to meet in the future. So he took on the task of helping Lu Yuan find a house all by himself.
At the same old bar, Lu Yuan once again invited Zhou Ming and Hei Zi. After the three of them drank and chatted for a while, the atmosphere became a little somber.
"Alright, stop sighing. It's not like we'll never see each other again. I'll come to the outer city again if I have the chance!" Lu Yuan said with a punch, looking at Zhou Ming, whose eyes were bloodshot from drinking.
Zhou Ming looked up and sighed: "Sigh, I thought I would be able to rise through the ranks by following you, but I didn't expect you to be transferred so quickly. Well then, I wish you all the best and hope you can become a high-ranking official as soon as possible and help us out!"
Hei Zi, standing to the side, slapped Zhou Ming on the shoulder and said with a laugh, "Can you stop being so opportunistic? Is our relationship with Lao Lu only about using each other? Alright, that's enough. Let's enjoy this meal and see each other again sometime!"
After the three glasses clinked together, Lu Yuan drank them all in one gulp.
It has to be said that Hei Zi is indeed a person with extremely strong connections. In just half a day, he found a relatively good rental house for Lu Yuan in the inner city.
Actually, there are staff dormitories in the Seventh Team of the Inner City, but Lu Yuan does not plan to live with those people. After all, he is quite well-off, and the Inner City is not like the Outer City, where there is nothing.
In the inner city, anyone with money can rent a decent house. Lu Yuan doesn't plan to stay here for long, since he came here with a purpose. So he needs to find a suitable opportunity to leave as soon as possible and find his family.
Following the location provided by Hei Zi, Lu Yuan arrived at Fifth Avenue in the inner city. He glanced at the time; it was already evening, the sky was still gloomy, and the temperature was indeed colder. He looked up at the sky, which was still covered with dark clouds, but there was no sign of rain.
After walking for about half an hour, following the directions given by Hei Zi, we finally found the residential area called Future City.
This community was built before the disaster, but after the earthquake, only one-tenth of the houses remained. The once large community was now a ruin. After a period of renovation, the ruins have been cleared and turned into green spaces.
Following the directions, Lu Yuan headed towards the residential area when suddenly a voice came from behind him.
"My benefactor, is that you?"
Lu Yuan turned around upon hearing the sound and saw Liu Yan standing next to a building in the community, wearing a pink wool coat. She had a smile on her face, and the panic she had shown before was gone. Moreover, after washing and dressing up, she looked even more youthful and beautiful, and she really was a beauty.
Lu Yuan grinned and asked, "Liu Yan, what are you doing here!"
Liu Yan, with her hands in her pockets, said, "I'm here to look at apartments. What about you?"
"Oh? You're here to look at apartments too? What a coincidence, I'm here to look at apartments too!"
Liu Yan's face immediately showed a look of surprise: "Doesn't your team have staff dormitories? Why do you have to rent a place here?"
Lu Yuan sighed and said, "I'm mainly used to living alone, and I'm not comfortable living with other people, so I want to move out!"
After saying "Oh," Liu Yan took out her right hand from her pocket, a smile on her face, and said, "What a coincidence! By the way, your name is Lu Yuan, right?"
Lu Yuan gently stepped forward, shook the other person's hand, and said, "Yes, my name is Lu Yuan. It's nice to meet you!"
"Well, I haven't thanked you for saving my life yet. I've been busy taking care of things, and I finally finished but couldn't find you. I didn't expect to run into you here. How about we go grab a bite to eat together?"
Lu Yuan turned to look at the house behind him and said, "It's still early, why don't we go look at some houses first, find a place to settle down, and then we can have dinner together!"
