Chapter 443 That's still a reward
People have noticed this in the last two days.
Su Yimo fell in love quickly, but withdrew even faster.
The man didn't seem to want to pester Su Yimo. Perhaps he understood that this kind of love, which started so suddenly, would one day also end just as suddenly.
So it's good to have had it once; there's no need to worry about forever.
Or perhaps if they really stay together forever, they might end up as a resentful couple. Even before the apocalypse, the marriage rate was declining year by year, let alone after the apocalypse, would anyone still be thinking about getting married?
According to Su Yimo, they are all idiots.
Zhou Chong: "..."
He can fire at him even when he's not at Phoenix Base, unbelievable.
After Dong Yuanjiu finished exchanging his crystal cores, Ling Ran and the others prepared to leave Phoenix Base.
Before this, Ling Ran divided the extra crystal cores they had exchanged equally among them, and everyone, including Wu Tong, was upgraded to level five.
Feeling his wind-based superpowers grow even stronger, Chen Le vanished from the house in an instant, only to reappear a second later: "It's so awesome to have cheat codes!"
Who would have thought that he could also live such an extraordinary life?
This cheat is actually a human-shaped cheat.
He thought that if one day he really encountered a problem that adults couldn't solve, he would be willing to become the adults' wall, using his own life to hold everything back so that the adults could escape.
"Sir, so many of us have reached level five. You don't need to be so competitive anymore, because your time to be strong has come!"
Ling Ran: "..."
The day after everyone reached level five, Ling Ran planned to leave Phoenix Base.
When Dong Yuanjiu came to pay his respects early in the morning, he learned of this news: "Are you sure you don't want to stay any longer, sir?"
He had no chance to complete the mission, but he was still hoping to win back the master's favor and receive some reward.
"I've stayed long enough."
When traveling, you want to find a base to stay in; but after staying in a base for a while, you want to go out and see the world. Humans are just fickle.
"Alright, what specific time will you be leaving, sir?"
"Ten o'clock."
It's 8 a.m. now.
Upon hearing this, Dong Yuanjiu said a few more words that he would come to see Ling Ran off, and then hurriedly left.
He had barely left when Wei Wan and Xiang Yi arrived.
"Sir, I heard you're leaving the base today?"
"How did you know?" Su Yimo asked curiously.
"I found out from Miss Su's friend," Wei Wan said with a smile. "Or rather, I guessed it, because I noticed that Miss Su hadn't been visiting him lately. I asked around and learned that you two had broken up amicably, so I guessed that the master was leaving the base."
Wei Wan met Su Yimo's ex-boyfriend through a mission.
"I see. What do you need to see the magistrate for?"
"I've come to thank you, sir."
Speaking of which, Wei Wan and Xiang Yi not only look much better now, but the numbness in their eyes has also disappeared. Perhaps they have regained hope for life, because they look much brighter now.
Wei Wan continued, "We have nothing to thank you for taking care of us before."
As she spoke, she took the wooden basket from Xiang Yi and handed it over: "This is mung bean 'adazi' that I made. It's a way of eating it from my hometown. It's not a very expensive commodity, but the way it's made is quite unique. I'm giving it to you, sir, hoping that you will have a smooth journey."
Shen Nianshen got up and took it, then opened the lid of the wooden basket to take a look.
Inside was a large bowl with a porcelain lid. Opening the lid revealed transparent sesame seeds with mung beans scattered throughout, making it look very beautiful.
Seeing Ling Ran nod slightly, he pondered for a moment and said, "Then I will accept it on behalf of the master." He closed the lid and took out several bags of rice from his space and handed them to Wei Wan and Xiang Yi: "This is the master's return gift."
Wei Wan and Xiang Yi quickly waved their hands, "No, no, no, it's not necessary."
They came to see the master off out of genuine gratitude, not to ask for anything. Besides, they had already received many favors from the master; how could they possibly ask for anything more?
Ling Ran took Adazi out of the basket and said, "It's a return gift, please accept it."
Wei Wan and Xiang Yi looked at each other for a while, both deeply moved, but no matter how much gratitude they felt, they couldn't express it or repay the kindness.
Four 10kg bags of rice.
This is enough for an average person to eat for several months.
"Then we're leaving."
After accepting the rice, Wei Wan and Xiang Yi said goodbye and wished Ling Ran and the others a safe journey.
I wish you all the best for the future.
Ling Ran replied, and the two left.
Watching this scene, Su Yimo sighed, "It's not easy. Going from a high-profile star to like this, how big must the fall be?"
"No one has it easy in the apocalypse."
That's true.
Even they, who live comfortably thanks to adults, still wish to return to the pre-apocalyptic world, even if they weren't as wealthy.
Peace, health, safety, and most importantly, the presence of loved ones.
Nowadays, it's rare to see older people like that, since the zombie virus requires a certain level of physical fitness, and those with poor health are likely to mutate in the first round.
Even if they didn't mutate later, they would slowly die for various reasons during their struggle for survival and escape.
Nowadays, most of those we see are young people or people in their prime, and it's rare to see people fleeing with their families.
After finishing breakfast and packing their things, the group went out.
Just as I walked to the entrance of Building 4, Dong Yuanjiu rushed over with his men. His men were all carrying plastic bags filled with fruits and vegetables.
Gu Zijing keenly noticed that these fruits and vegetables were things they didn't have.
I guess it's because Dong Yuanjiu came to pay his respects every day during this period that he noticed it; he's quite observant.
Dong Yuanjiu and his men escorted Ling Ran and the others to the base gate. After Ling Ran took out the car, he said, "Sir, thank you for visiting Phoenix Base. It is my fault for not being able to properly entertain you. These fruits and vegetables are a token of my appreciation. Please accept them."
Shen Nianshen glanced at Ling Ran's expression, then reached out and said, "Manager Dong, give me all the fruits and vegetables."
“Okay.” Dong Yuanjiu was overjoyed to hear that Ling Ran was willing to accept: “Then I, on behalf of all the members of Phoenix Base, respectfully bid farewell to you, and wish you a safe journey.”
As he spoke, he bowed slightly, and the people behind him quickly followed suit.
Ling Ran looked at Dong Yuanjiu, thought for a moment, and took out a bottle from her spatial storage and handed it to him: "This is for you."
Dong Yuanjiu looked up and saw a plastic bottle filled with clean water.
Should we reward him with a bottle of water?
That's a reward too!
According to Manager Zhou, the Star Base has absolutely nothing.
He's definitely better than Star Base!
"Thank you for the reward, sir!"
Ling Ran didn't say anything, turned around and got into the car. The others also got into the car one after another. After a while, the sound of the car starting could be heard, and it quickly drove away from Phoenix Base.
