Chapter 170 Pei Qi: Kittens won’t cling to people! ...
Pei Qi, who has always been thin-skinned, became very clingy that night.
This further aroused Lu Xuan's desire to conquer. Lu Xuan was determined to go all out, so he used a wooden cannon to teach Pei Maomao a lesson.
Pei Maomao: “…”
Clingy?
Can't you just tangle with me a little bit!
"Hiss." Pei Qi let out a low cry of pain. "What are you doing?"
Lu Xuan bit his neck deeply. Pei Qi's hands tightly grasped the corner of the quilt, and his lips were tightly pursed. Lu Xuan bit him fiercely, and a bloody bead was imprinted on the corner of his lips. Lu Xuan patiently licked the blood bead, which was enough to leave a mark on his white neck.
Lu Xuan chuckled softly and added with a smile, "I'll leave a mark on you to let others know that you're already with someone, so that others won't provoke you when I'm not around."
Pei Qi glared at him and twisted his arm. "If you're so worried, why don't you let me go with you? Even if I'm not very capable, I'm still more reliable than those outsiders!"
Lu Xuan didn't respond, but instead asked, "If you fail the course, will I have to tutor you?"
Pei Maomao: “…”
He added muffledly, "Does class have to be in the classroom? I can just watch the online course on my own. How can I not learn it? If I can't, I'll just watch it a few more times."
Seeing Pei Qi's serious look, Lu Xuan was amused by him. Savage Star was a poor and remote place with mountains and rivers. The people were tough, which was one thing, but there was no infrastructure at all, which was another. What was the military thinking when they sent him to such a place to garrison? Wasn't it obvious?
The indigenous people of Savage Planet X5 have been experiencing a period of political turmoil, with several factions constantly fighting each other. From a business perspective, who would want to invest in such a turbulent place? Furthermore, the local area lacks even the most basic infrastructure, leaving it with no prospects for development.
The most subtle thing is the attitude of the military. If the higher-ups really want Lu Xuan to go and quell the rebellion and sort out this mess, they should give him sufficient support instead of giving him a ragtag army of only 500 people.
These people are "extremists" kicked out from various departments. Their superiors have been unhappy with them for a long time, and now they just have an excuse to send them out.
If it was a complete team, it could be used right away, and Lu Xuan could deploy the entire team to the greatest extent. The problem was that the team he had was a hastily assembled group, so not only did the team need time to get used to each other, but the fighting among the natives could drag him in at any time, and their own manpower was far from enough to stop the entire war.
This was exactly what the military wanted to see. If Lu Xuan was given enough troops and he forcibly suppressed the various factions on Savage Star, wouldn't that be a reward for his military merit? This was why they assigned Lu Xuan a team of 500 men. A base of 500 men couldn't influence the outcome of the battle, but the turbulent situation could drag them into it at any time. As the commander of the team, Lu Xuan, as the primary person in charge, would be held responsible if anything happened to the army he led!
This is what they really want to see.
As soon as the military presented this silky little combo, it was immediately widely recognized by the parliament.
After all, Lu Xuan is now at the center of public opinion. If they punish Lu Xuan at this critical juncture, it will only arouse public outrage and cause the government's reputation to plummet. If Lu Xuan fails to handle his work well and causes heavy casualties, it means that he is incompetent. They can use this incident to severely damage Lu Xuan's reputation among the people. As long as Lu Xuan's reputation among the people continues to decline, they will have more opportunities to take action.
Although Lieutenant General Joel intended to protect Lu Xuan, he never expected that this group of people would use this matter as an excuse. Lu Xuan hasn't even gone to the Savage Star yet, but they have already made arrangements for him. What they want is for Lu Xuan to fall from the altar step by step and be despised by others!
Lu Xuan's mind was as clear as a mirror. This was a crisis, but also an opportunity.
Lu Xuan pinched Pei Qi's face lightly and jokingly said, "You're still taking online classes? You're studying mecha maintenance. The first two years focus on textbook knowledge, while your junior year's coursework focuses on computer-based practice. If you don't have a solid foundation in your sophomore year, you're going to mess up your junior year's computer-based work!"
Pei Maomao: “…”
The disheartened Pei Maomao dived into the quilt, drawing a clear line between him and Lu Xuan.
Seeing Pei Qi's annoyed look, Lu Xuan quickly hugged him from behind, "I didn't say you can't come. Why don't you finish your schoolwork first and come back during the winter or summer vacation?"
Lu Xuan patiently persuaded him. Pei Qi turned his head, put his hand on the side of Lu Xuan's neck, and actively kissed his thin lips. He bit the corner of his lips. The stinging sensation further stimulated Lu Xuan's nerves. He pressed his hand on the back of Pei Qi's head, deepening the entangled kiss.
Perhaps the kiss was too intense, Pei Qi even had difficulty breathing. The low panting sound was like a wildfire that could burn everything to ashes.
Pei Qi stared at him intently and emphasized, "Then it's a deal. See you during the holidays."
"Um."
At this moment, Pei Maomao still doesn't understand the value of a word. Men's words are lies!
How can I believe what Lu Xuan, this big pig's hoof, says!
As soon as Lu Xuan finished his fundraising speech at Peking University, he took his men back home.
Before leaving, he did not forget to take Billie with him.
Billie is a good accountant. Those who work as accountants for the big bosses have always been their confidants, and outsiders cannot touch such a core position.
Of course, the most crucial thing is that Lu Xuan has not yet established a bridge of trust with his subordinates, and he is busy with many things and has no time to give psychological massage to those troublemakers one by one. The fastest way is to transfer a trustworthy person to help him look at the accounts so that he can get away from the messy trivial matters.
Billie is the perfect candidate.
After learning that Billie had been taken away by the president, Noah felt devastated. He grabbed Bert's clothes in disbelief and shouted in pain, "Bert, why! Why would the president take Lily away? And not me? I've applied to the president so many times, so many times!"
Noah: “!!!!”
Ahhhhhhh, President, love will disappear ahhhhhhhh!
Seeing Noah's frantic expression, Bert suddenly added, "Caesar didn't just take you away. He didn't even take Pei Qi with him. I'm afraid his purpose in bringing Billie along this time is probably to attract investment."
You know, Billie's position in the student union is the propaganda minister, and most of the investment in the student union was negotiated by her.
From a functional perspective, Billie's role is too great.
First, although Caesars had conducted numerous fundraising efforts, it was still unclear whether the funds raised would be enough to build the airport. Billie was a skilled business operator, a true expert in foreign trade. If there were ever any funding issues, Caesars would likely send Billie out to attract investment to fill the gap.
Second, most of the student union's accounts were done by him and Billie together, but the two people were in charge of different parts. This meant that Billie was an old hand at accounting and did not need any training. She could get started immediately as soon as she was brought in.
How Caesar uses the money raised, including the circumstances of its use, must be made public, so a worry-free financial system can save him a lot of trouble.
Lu Xuan finally returned with money, supplies and technical personnel. When he returned to Savage Star X5, he discovered a serious problem.
His team disappeared!
The military tents were completely evacuated, and even the temporary signal points that he had his men repaired were destroyed.
Without signals, for troops relying on information warfare, it is undoubtedly like an eagle soaring in the sky losing its sharp eyes.
Fortunately, Lu Xuan brought people and supplies with him this time. He immediately asked the students from the Communications Department to carry out repairs and install his newly purchased communications equipment to ensure stable communications.
As expected, as soon as Lu Xuan modified the communication, he contacted the deputy commander Mo Wen. Through the communication screen, it could be clearly seen that Mo Wen and dozens of others were huddled in a cave, and each of them was about to become a caveman. They had marching backpacks on their shoulders. When they saw Lu Xuan, they were like seeing their relatives, and their eyes were almost filled with tears.
Lu Xuan couldn't help but frown and asked, "Mo Wen, what's going on? Where did everyone go?"
Upon hearing Lu Xuan's question, Mo Wen was overcome with grief and kept complaining to him, "Boss, you don't know! As soon as you left, those natives surrounded us. We tried to reason with them, but they wouldn't listen! Not only did they not listen, they even tried to take our supplies. We got so angry that we started fighting them!"
Lu Xuan pressed on, "What supplies are they going to move?"
"As soon as they arrived, they took a fancy to our construction robots and wanted to touch them."
Mo Wen: “????”
You old-fashioned people, do you even know what building a robot is? You want to touch it right away, but what if you break it?
How would these country bumpkins know what is valuable and what is worthless?
However, the indigenous people were observant, because as soon as they touched the iron lump, the faces of these people changed. The indigenous people immediately determined that those cold iron lumps must be treasures, and they would take them away at all costs.
This conversation almost made Mo Wen so angry that he passed out. Those lumps of iron were bought by all of them to build robots!
Mo Wenyuan didn't think as far ahead as Lu Xuan. He thought that building an airport was not something that could be handled in a few words!
Although they may not be able to build an airport, they can use construction robots to build a few camps for them to protect them from being exposed to the wind and sun, and they can also build a dormitory for them.
The most crucial thing is that before the boss left, he repeatedly warned them to keep a close eye on these robots. Now this incident happened as soon as the boss left. How can Mo Wen explain it?
The two sides started fighting on the spot!
Lu Xuan pondered for a moment and asked, "Are you the only ones here? Where are the others?"
Mo Wen looked at him anxiously and explained in a low voice, "The incident happened suddenly. We split up into several teams and ran away. However, the temporary signal device broke down, and we lost our direction all of a sudden, so we couldn't reunite."
Lu Xuan immediately issued an order, "The temporary signal station has been restored, all teams return immediately!"
"clear!"
