"It's rare that you're honest. I agree to the conditions proposed by the Sanctuary of Light."
The woman raised her wine glass. He Zheng was still in a daze, but was finally awakened by the cold air. He picked up the glass and clinked it with hers.
"It's been a pleasure working with you."
Until now, he still thought it was because he had been holding it in for too long and was drunk.
As for why Lin Xingyou agreed now, it was not because she was not tempted by the conditions proposed by He Zheng, but because she wanted to get more information from him.
Compared with the current situation of Hope Shelter, the conditions proposed by Light Shelter can impress her more, and only the benefits in hand will not betray her.
So we need to be cautious——
"We've finished ordering. Boss Lin, please put in the other supplies."
The team members waved to Lin Xingyou not far away, and Lin Xingyou raised his hand and made an OK gesture.
"Wait!"
Next was the water source, which was contained in large white plastic barrels. Lin Xingyou placed the barrels neatly and began to pour water into them from the air.
The water source purchased this time is huge, and it is estimated that it will take five or six times to complete.
“Swish—”
There was the sound of water splashing in his ears. Looking at the huge and unreasonable scene in front of him, He Zheng's eyes suddenly darkened. He gripped the cup tightly with his rough hands, and the wine in the cup couldn't help but sway.
If he hadn't intentionally controlled it, the cup would have been crushed to pieces by him.
"Every time I see such a scene, I am shocked," he sighed.
"You mean water?"
Lin Xingyou tilted his head and asked with a smile, the dark light flashing in his eyes carrying some danger.
"It's Boss Lin."
He Zheng raised his hand and raised his glass, then looked at Lin Xingyou with a smile. Lin Xingyou smiled back at him and then clinked glasses.
“Bang—”
The clash of wine glasses made a crisp sound, and the meaning of the two people was self-evident.
Once again, the man was glad for his choice.
In the end times, if you have the ability to control rain, you will be a dazzling new star wherever you go.
Not to mention that she possesses unpredictable abilities. Not only materials, but also the ability to build castles in the clouds, which is beyond the ability of psychics.
He really didn't understand what Hope Sanctuary was thinking when it came to something so obvious.
Fortunately, they didn't have this idea, so I got a chance to take advantage of it.
The subsequent procedures went smoothly and He Zheng also joined in counting the supplies as there were simply not enough people.
If he doesn't come, it will probably take until evening!
Lin Xingyou was relatively free, so she just had to think about the placement and didn't have to worry about anything else.
In fact, Yan Ze had already predicted He Zheng's idea, but it was strongly rejected by the head of the Zhao family who wanted to be a dictator, so he missed the opportunity.
…
"I haven't had food like this in a long time!"
"Come, eat some vegetables, and more meat, I've never seen fresh meat since the apocalypse!"
"Yes, everyone won't leave today until they are drunk—"
“Come on, do it—”
As night fell, He Zheng paid for a meal out of his own pocket. The psychics from the Bright Shelter who had completed their mission in the private room were extremely excited, and there was even wine on the table.
The warm yellow light and the excited crowd made Lin Xingyou, who was sitting on the side, feel dazed for a moment.
She seemed to be back at a dinner party in the normal world. This chaotic and lively atmosphere could easily infect the people around her.
“Knock, knock—”
Lin Xingyou turned around when she heard the voice and saw Tang Yi crouching down next to her and whispering in her ear:
"Yan Ze is here."
She nodded, exchanged a glance with He Zheng, and followed Tang Yi out of the private room.
"What is he doing here?" Lin Xingyou asked with a questioning look.
Tang Yi's face showed a serious expression, "It should be the Zhao family's business."
Lin Xingyou understood.
The originally frozen crystal fence had melted, revealing a crystal clear column. Yan Ze was waiting for her at her usual seat, preparing scented tea.
The pale yellow light shone slightly on the side of his face, adding a bit of warmth to his originally gloomy face.
After sitting down, the man pushed the poured scented tea to Lin Xingyou with his slender fingers and looked at her with gentle black eyes.
"Try this, I just found it."
"Tell me, what's the matter?" Lin Xingyou seemed particularly cold.
Yan Ze raised his eyebrows and stopped talking nonsense. "I heard that the people from the Shelter of Light live here?"
"Do you have any objections?"
She raised her eyes slightly and looked at the pair of sinister eyes hidden in the darkness.
"Ms. Lin is a businesswoman, so of course I have no objection." Yan Ze lowered his eyes and smiled, then raised the small glass and took a sip.
The frosted glass cup fell on the table with a crisp sound. Lin Xingyou's face was indifferent, waiting for his next words.
"The Zhao Family Tigers have returned. Miss Lin, do you know what they brought back?"
Yan Ze looked straight at the opposite side with his half-covered dark eyes, but found that Lin Xingyou's attitude towards him was too cold.
"You knew?" he was surprised.
"A little bit."
Lin Xingyou took a sip from the teacup, rubbing the cup lightly with his index finger. "I saw them when they came, and they all had guns on them."
"The Tiger Team went to the Cloud City Base and wanted to buy more lethal weapons from the Cloud City Base. They are targeting more than just zombies."
There was a cold fear in his words, and the last sentence was a hint to her.
This was the second time Lin Xingyou heard the name of Yuncheng Base today.
As for the Zhao family's hostility towards her, she knew it very well.
Yan Ze's words also indirectly reminded her that the Zhao family's primary target in the future would be castles in the air.
The Zhao family's move threatened both Yan Ze and her interests.
And judging from his attitude, he will never allow himself to be manipulated by others.
Lin Xingyou's deep eyes flashed several times as he looked at the indifferent Yan Ze opposite him.
"What else?"
“I plan to start at the end of the month.”
His eyes, like deep pools, narrowed slightly, containing a biting chill and mixed with the meticulousness of terrifying thoughts.
"come on."
She verbally cheered Yan Ze on.
Lin Xingyou has never wanted to get involved in the struggle between the two forces as there is no benefit to be gained.
Even if the Zhao family has nuclear bombs, she is not afraid.
Although he could guess her attitude, when he really saw her indifferent attitude, he still felt a moment of disappointment in his heart.
Is she that confident?
After taking a second to adjust his mood, Yan Ze continued, "I want to transfer the important members of the Yan family to the Cloud Hotel."
"What else?"
If that were all, he could just come up with the crystal core.
"I want Miss Lin to guarantee my personal safety. If successful, I will give you 10% of the tax revenue from the shelter."
When it came to the 10% of crystal cores, Lin Xingyou's eyes lit up, but the subsequent requirements were too troublesome.
After much deliberation, Lin Xingyou rejected Yan Ze's proposal.
Yan Ze was a little confused for a moment.
It's a win-win situation if she helps him, so the reward he gives is not small, right?
"Ms. Lin thinks the 10% tax revenue from Hope Shelter is too little?" he was puzzled.
"I find it troublesome."
After some hesitation, Lin Xingyou finally told the truth.
Yan Ze: ...
His life is too worthless——
"What about the Zhao family..." he asked.
"I won't let them into castles in the air."
"The Zhao family's continued existence will affect my interests. If I don't help you, it won't be good for them either."
The warm yellow light from below fell on her irises, but it was as deep as the frozen sea under the moon.
Lin Xingyou secretly stated her position, and as for the rest, she was just the manager of the castle in the air, and her actions were not controlled by others.
"good."
Yan Ze had a smile on his face, hiding the gloom in his eyes.
"Thank you Miss Lin for your help."
He naturally replaced the cold scented tea in front of the woman with a hot cup, and his dark eyes instantly turned cold.
After getting Lin Xingyou's assurance, Yan Ze felt much more relieved.
He can't let the Zhao family go.
——
"Why doesn't Boss Lin agree to Yan Ze's request?" Tang Yi walked out from the partition.
"I know what he's thinking. If he wants to find a strong ally, I'm the best candidate."
After seeing Yan Ze off, Lin Xingyou obviously felt a little tired. He walked slowly towards the stairs and gave a clear answer to Tang Yi's doubts.
"What about the Zhao family?" Tang Yi didn't finish his sentence.
The Zhao family's hostility towards Castle in the Sky is even greater than that of the Yan family. At least the Yan family still has value to be used, but from the very beginning of Castle in the Sky's rise, it has been regarded as a thorn in the side by the Zhao family.
If the Zhao family really reaches a deal with the Yuncheng Base, the first target will definitely be the castle in the air.
Lin Xingyou raised his head and yawned, then turned back and said lazily: "Give me a push when necessary, and come to me if you can't handle it."
As she stepped onto the stairs, she thought of something and looked back with a little more seriousness.
"Anyone who stands in my way of earning crystal cores will be considered an enemy. As an employee, you must learn to share the boss's worries."
Watching the boss go upstairs, Tang Yi opened his mouth slightly, obviously dazed and even speechless.
She felt deeply tired of Lin Xingyou's self-righteous expression and the meaningful look at the end.
It’s the end of the world, why are there still bosses who PUA their employees!
There was a cold wind on the third-floor platform. After being blown by the wind, Lin Xingyou's expression became much clearer. The slender figure standing there alone seemed a little lonely, but her light and steady steps were extremely firm.
She walked slowly in the desired direction, letting the darkness around her swallow her up bit by bit.
"Cloud City Base..."
The woman's whispered words were blown away by the wind, and no one knew what she was going to do next.
