For a moment, Qu Shiheng was at a stalemate.
He didn't know how he and the Xiangcheng base had managed to reconcile.
So he called an acquaintance at the Xiangcheng base and asked that acquaintance to find Gong Yi's contact information for him.
Qu Shiheng understood perfectly well that it was probably impossible to get through to Qin Zhen, since Qin Zhen had already blocked his contact information.
Qin Zhen is Hua Mi's person, and every decision Qin Zhen makes represents Hua Mi's wishes.
Qu Shiheng already knew this.
Wouldn't it be better to just go find Gong Yi directly?
The Xiangcheng base belongs to Gong Yi, who is Hua Mi's husband and the father of her two children.
If Gong Yi chooses to forgive, what does it matter how much hatred Hua Mi harbors?
In the end, we still have to choose to forgive.
Gong Yi's contact information was not hard to find. After all, he had worked in the rescue team for a period of time before, and many people knew his phone number.
But as time went on and more people died, fewer and fewer people called Gong Yi.
The people who contacted Gong Yi the most were his garrison and Hua Mi.
When Gong Yi received Qu Shiheng's call, he was quite surprised to see an unfamiliar number.
When he answered the phone, he was surprised to find that the person calling him was Qu Shiheng.
Gong Yi frowned and asked in a cool, indifferent voice:
"I really didn't expect you to be so shameless as to call me."
"What's wrong, Qu Shiheng? Do you think you've lived too long?"
Qu Shiheng and Chen Hu took advantage of Hua Mi's vulnerability, repeatedly pushing Xiangcheng into dire straits during her childbirth.
Gong Yi's temper was no less than Hua Mi's.
On the other end of the phone, Qu Shiheng tried hard to suppress his anger, forcing a smile and chuckling twice.
"What did Commander Gong say? Those of us who achieve great things don't concern ourselves with trifles."
"Nothing's wrong with your Xiangcheng base right now, is it? I'm here to apologize with the utmost sincerity."
"Let's just let this matter drop. Chen Hu is dead now, so this misunderstanding should be wiped clean."
"Our two bases must help each other and protect the survivors in this apocalypse so that they can survive better."
Gong Yi on the other end of the phone did not speak.
Qu Shiheng then continued:
"In such a difficult living environment, it's always better to have one more friend than one more enemy."
"What does Commander Gong think? Back then, your wife cut off one of my ears, and I scared your wife when she was giving birth."
"We've gone back and forth on this matter, so let's call it even."
"If Commander Gong continues to argue like this, he'll seem rather unmanly."
No sooner had he finished speaking than Gong Yi let out a cold laugh on the other end of the phone.
Are you trying to manipulate me?
"Can your one ear be compared to my wife and my two children?"
"The entire apocalypse combined can't compare to my wife and children."
Perhaps the world was too bleak, because in Gong Yi's mind, his value system was being dismantled time and time again.
After repeated breakdowns, Gong Yi picked up his worldview and values again and reshaped them.
His internal value system has changed.
He now feels that nothing can compare to his wife and children.
He was willing to risk his life for his wife and children.
What is Qu Shiheng anyway? Let alone his ear, even his life is worthless.
Qu Shiheng continued to persuade him.
"Then Commander Gong, we can't just stand by and watch so many survivors from our E City base lose their lives."
“You’re also a garrison commander, where’s your professional ethics? Although you can’t forgive my mistakes, there are still so many survivors in the E City base.”
"Am I wrong to want to obtain enough supplies to save these survivors?"
"No matter what, we have to be responsible for the people of this city, right?"
Speaking of which, Qu Shiheng gave himself the title of Commander of City E.
In fact, before the apocalypse, he wasn't even a city administrator.
Gong Yi was also the commander of Xiangcheng. Since it was a matter of commanders talking to each other, he didn't discuss anything with Gong Yi, such as whether or not to forgive or not.
He is now talking to Gong Yi about ideals and righteousness.
Gong Yi chuckled, his laughter laced with deep sarcasm.
"Are you trying to teach me how to do things? E City is in this state now, and that's not something we in Xiang City caused."
"On the contrary, the reason why our Xiangcheng has become like this is because of your E City."
"You don't need to talk nonsense with me here. You have a responsibility to the people of E City. Before you say such things, you should first find a way to solve the problems in your E City base."
Perhaps because he had witnessed too much human tragedy, Gong Yi gradually felt that in the apocalypse, perhaps the wisest choice was to live well in his own little corner of the world.
He only has a total of 5,000 garrison troops, and even with those 5,000 troops, it's barely enough to defend such a large base as Xiangcheng.
What else can he care about? The entire apocalypse?
I'm really sorry, but he really doesn't have that much ability.
Let's just call him an incompetent man. He's already done his best to protect Xiangcheng.
