Chapter 124 - Result Theory
The Comprehensive Management Center for Variant Prevention and Control Technology is similar to the "Comprehensive Office in Charge of Variant Research" that Ning Fei is currently planning to build.
Of course Ning Fei didn't tell Duan Yunhong what he was busy with at Tianyue, but after Tianyue reported the idea of setting up this office, or "briefed" the higher-ups, it wasn't difficult for Huichuan to get the news. As long as Duan Yunhong knew the news, it would be easy for him, as the director of the research institute, to set up a management department to oversee all R&D teams related to mutants.
In fact, Tianyue has already helped to get it approved, and it would be much simpler for Huichuan to get the same approval.
Originally, Tianyue was about to issue a document to establish this office. If Duan Yunhong hadn’t come to rescue him, it would have been a matter of a few days. But Ning Fei decided to come out to rescue people at the last minute, and Yu Zhou was thinking about the work he was responsible for, and he should finish it so that it could be completed from beginning to end, so the matter was briefly delayed for a few days. However, no matter how hard he tried, Ning Fei never expected that Duan Yunhong would intercept him like this.
“The first” has a great demonstration effect and can lay a solid foundation for the impression of “leading the way to save the world”.
Even though Ning Fei could accept that Duan Yunhong won the bet in the end, he was not completely indifferent to the outcome. Especially the method Duan Yunhong used. Ning Fei was so angry that he almost laughed when he thought about how he, who had always been cautious, actually fell for such a big trick.
"So, you deliberately approached the mutants, exaggerated your danger, and then tried every means to trick me out, right?"
Ning Fei stood by the window and looked at Duan Yunhong, sneering: "Of course, Duan Yunhong, your acting is superb. You called me for help late at night, pretending to be pitiful. Then you hung up after just a few words, and all the messages turned into text messages. Are you afraid that you will be exposed if I ask too many questions? When I promised you that I would come, did I stay in your safe house and think that I was easy to deceive?"
"I didn't even set up offensive abilities. I deliberately took the risk of finding many mutants just to deceive you. Am I crazy?" Duan Yunhong was quite calm in the face of doubts. "You also went to see the house where I was hiding. If you hadn't reminded me, I could have been killed the moment I opened the door. What kind of safe house is that?"
"Not yet? The room is not small. You can take out a bunch of things from the space to seal the doors and windows. Which mutant can hear you or smell you? As long as they don't look for you and don't deliberately destroy the doors and windows, what danger will you have in the short term?" Ning Fei said coldly, "You don't have to worry about food and drink. The room even has a bathroom. It's not a problem for you to hold on for a few more days and wait for other rescue teams."
"You're only talking about the best-case scenario. They've been active near the house for several days before you came, so it's only a matter of time before they confirm my presence. Once their leader finds me, he'll definitely organize an attack!" Duan Yunhong frowned, "And you know I'm not someone who would easily ask for help. If it weren't for the moment when I had to ask you for help, why would I let you ask for so much?"
"I don't know, don't assume I should know. Maybe I knew it before, but now, I'm not sure." Ning Fei said a series of tongue twisters with a mocking tone, "I only know that you deceived me, and you succeeded."
"It's just a coincidence." Duan Yunhong denied again, "I admit that I am indeed pushing for the establishment of that management center and urging them to do it as soon as possible. But it was sent out tonight, it was completely a coincidence. I also signed and approved it on my tablet tonight, so I just knew it a little earlier than you."
"Ha, Director Duan lied without blinking an eye. This document was not sent earlier or later, but just when I was rushing back to Tianyue to finish the work. You said it was a coincidence, do you believe it? Even if it was a coincidence today, when I left Tianyue, weren't you always urging you to complete the process of Huichuan? You definitely know the probability of getting the publicity and release before Tianyue." Ning Fei saw that Duan Yunhong still looked like he didn't agree, so he waved his hand and said sarcastically, "You don't need to refute it anymore. No matter how complete your speech is, I don't want to listen. It's my bad luck that I capsized in your ditch."
As he spoke, he walked towards the sofa where Duan Yunhong... was sitting.
Ning Fei picked up the backpack he had just packed and turned to walk out. Duan Yunhong stretched out his legs and blocked his way: "Where are you going so late at night? No matter what, I won't attack you personally."
"But I can't stay with you. When I see you, I feel like I'm such an idiot that I was lured away by a 'lucky bandit'. I don't want to guess how you laugh at me in your heart." Ning Fei slung his bag over one shoulder, looking down at him with sarcasm, "But this is not your fault, it's only my own fault. I actually stepped into such a simple trap, and I was so complacent that I got the luck from you. I'm so stupid and disgusting.
"Yu Zhou is right. You have to bear the consequences of your own choices. Since I have chosen to be your enemy, I should stay away from you."
He scolded himself so harshly that Duan Yunhong felt depressed and understood that Ning Fei was really angry.
But he was not sending it to Duan Yunhong, but to himself. Words are like sharp swords. It doesn't hurt when they stab others, but it doesn't hurt when they stab yourself. Ning Fei was using this method to warn himself that he must not relax his guard for even a moment and must not lose any caution. Since he lost his level in front of Duan Yunhong, he needs to build a stronger "wall" around himself to avoid making similar mistakes again.
——If you don’t correct small mistakes, big mistakes will surely come. This lesson is enough.
Ning Fei stepped over Duan Yunhong's legs and strode towards the door.
Just as he was about to open the door and go out, Duan Yunhong quickly caught up with him, grabbed his wrist and said in a deep voice: "I'm asking you for help because you're the only one I can trust!"
Ning Fei was too lazy to listen and wanted to shake him off. But Duan Yunhong held him tightly and did not let him escape.
Duan Yunhong had a hunch that if he just let this topic go as before, he would definitely regret it in the future.
"There is a small problem with the setting I came in. If I have to wait for someone to rescue me, I only believe that you can definitely get me out. If someone has to see me hiding in a panic, I can only reluctantly accept that person is you!" Duan Yunhong continued, "I only considered these two points when I called. The other so-called 'traps' and 'luring the tiger away from the mountain' are all your own imagination, don't put it on me!"
"Is it interesting for you to talk about the cause and process now? The result has already been achieved, and I have already suffered the loss! Yu Zhou almost suspected that I leaked the construction plan. If I understand you just because you said 'I didn't think so at the beginning', am I a cheapskate?" Ning Fei pulled his hand hard again, "Let go! Do you want to fight?"
Duan Yunhong didn't let go: "Anyway, we'll be separated tomorrow morning, and you won't see me again, so why are you running away now? Are you going to suffer for nothing?"
"None of your business." Ning Fei said, and actually pulled out the gun from his waist, "Fire it or not? Do you want to watch me open the safety catch with one hand?"
Duan Yunhong still didn't let go, as if he was deliberately going against him, he grabbed him and stared at him. The two people's eyes met in the air, they confronted each other silently, and also debated silently.
After a few seconds, the tightly gripping hand finally loosened.
"Okay, it seems you won't believe anything I say. Then I have nothing more to say, just go." Duan Yunhong didn't want to explain anything anymore. Ning Fei was right. The result was already out. No matter how much we explained about the future, it would be meaningless.
"Ha, you sound like you're a wronged victim. Don't use that on me, it won't work." Ning Fei sneered, put away the gun, and turned the doorknob. "I'm sorry, Director Duan won't be able to receive your million-dollar request for help in the future. Find someone else to save you and watch you act out your embarrassment."
After saying that, Ning Fei opened the door and walked out.
He didn't close the door and walked forward without looking back. It was not until he turned into the stairs that he heard the sound of a door closing in the corridor.

Ning Fei actually didn't go anywhere else. He just booked another room in the guesthouse and slept there for the night.
The next day we set off for Tianyue. There were no problems along the way and we arrived back in Tianyue safely in less than three days. It was lunchtime when they entered the base. Ning Fei didn't hesitate to ask Yu Zhou to treat him to dinner, calling it a "welcoming dinner".
Yu Zhou agreed, and the venue was set at the small restaurant where Ning Fei and Duan Yunhong were welcomed last time, which was opened by Yue Fengping's comrade-in-arms. When Yu Zhou came to meet them after the meeting, the dishes were basically ready and Ning Fei was eating and drinking.
Yu Zhou didn't care that he didn't wait for him. He looked him over as he walked into the box and sat down next to him. "Why are you so unhappy? Didn't Duan Yunhong give you any luck?"
"Do you think it's possible?" Ning Fei poured him a glass of wine. "If he dared not to give him luck, would he still exist in this world now?"
Yu Zhou spread his hands towards him and said, "Two hundred thousand is a good deal."
Ning Fei glanced at him and slapped his hand, making a crisp sound. The two of them didn't actually need to rely on contact to transfer their luck, but Ning Fei didn't give it to them. He just said, "When you want to transfer four million to me, why don't you just deduct it directly?"
"Are you so confident?" Yu Zhou didn't touch the wine. He took two sips of tea first, and then started to eat. "He tricked you this time. This is a bad start. I haven't seen you fall into a trap so easily in a long time."
"Tsk, this is indeed my problem." Ning Fei did not deny it, but drank the remaining wine in the glass in one gulp, then lowered his eyes and pinched the glass, saying slowly, "I will remember it, and there won't be a next time."
"Oh, so you're upset about this." Yu Zhou raised his eyebrows. "But it's okay. After all, he fell into your trap a long time ago, and he worked so hard just because of what you lied to him. If we talk about falling, his fall is much bigger than yours. You don't have to reflect on yourself so hard, just relax."
"You also said that I haven't made such a mistake in a long time. Maybe it's because I've been doing well for too long, so I became lax and lost my standards." Ning Fei poured himself another glass of wine. "If I'm not careful, I might lose everything. I know that very well..."
"Stop, don't think about it." Yu Zhou interrupted him directly and touched his glass with his own. "I don't want to hear your introspection. Drink more. I'll take you home when you're drunk. Get a good night's sleep, and come back to the office to work for me tomorrow."
Ning Fei clinked glasses with him and smiled when he heard that.
"...That's fine. I don't need to think so much when I'm just a beast of burden. I'd rather be commanded around by you."
