Chapter 171 At Least, I Can Protect Her [38]
The next morning, after Ah Chu got up and had breakfast, she and Su Yiyue went out to register their identities.
She had just stepped out the door when Su Yiyue received a call from the research institute.
Yes, there is a communication signal inside the base, but the signal coverage is currently limited to the base itself.
Last night, Su Yiyue returned a cell phone to Achu, saying that after the identity registration was completed today, she could get a phone card for her.
Su Yiyue took two days off to spend time with Achu today and help her get familiar with the Beijing base.
A phone call from the research institute forced her to go there first.
"Okay, I'll be there as soon as possible," Su Yiyue replied coldly, then hung up the phone.
Putting away her phone, Su Yiyue looked at A Chu with apology and embarrassment in her eyes.
“Mianmian, I…”
Ah Chu smiled and said, "It's okay, sister. Work is very important! You can earn points and benefit humanity at the same time!"
"It's just identity registration, I can go by myself!"
Su Yiyue was worried about her younger sister going out alone, even though she knew there were no zombies in the base and it was relatively safe.
But sometimes, people are in greater danger.
Especially people in the end times.
Without legal constraints, morality is even less effective in restraining certain individuals...
Su Yiyue: "You can't go by yourself. You wait for me at home. I'll come back when I'm done with my work and take you to register. Okay?"
Seeing Su Yiyue's worried expression, A Chu was about to agree when she suddenly saw Shen Wang and the others walking out of the building across the street.
Achu's eyes lit up, and she called out loudly, "Brother Chenwang! Brother Lin! Sister Maiya!"
Having not slept well all night, Chen Wang, who was feeling gloomy and depressed, felt as if a warm, sunny hand had parted the dark clouds above his head the moment he saw A Chu.
The weather cleared up instantly.
His eyebrows and eyes relaxed, and although his face still didn't have any extra expression, his aura had changed.
"Mianmian."
Lin Xiangheng and the others greeted Achu with smiles: "Good morning, little sister Mianmian!"
"Mianmian, you live right across the street? What a coincidence! We'll be neighbors from now on!"
Ah Chu replied with a smile, "Yes! What a coincidence!"
"Brother Chenwang, where are you all going?"
Chen Wang: "Go to the mission center."
When I returned to the mission center yesterday, it was already closed. The final handover and registration for the mission to bring Dr. Wang back had not yet been completed.
Achu: "Is the mission center next to the identity registration office? I need to register my identity, but my sister has something urgent to attend to and needs to go back to the research institute."
Chen Wang: "Let's go, I'll take you there."
Achu immediately looked at Su Yiyue with a big smile: "Sister, then I'll trouble Brother Chenwang to take me there! You go and do your thing, don't worry about me!"
Su Yiyue: "..."
She was worried too, following Chen Wang's lead!
In Su Yiyue's eyes, Shen Wang was probably just a wolf who would carry A Chu, the little white rabbit, back to his den at any time.
She looked at Chen Wang.
Shen Wang was also looking at Su Yiyue.
He could tell what Su Yiyue was worried about.
Her concerns are valid.
Because Shenwang was indeed thinking about how to bring Achu to his den.
After a sleepless night, he had figured out what he wanted.
He wants Achu, without a doubt.
Even if Su Yiyue is unwilling, so what?
"Sister, please? Let me go with Brother Chenwang and the others~"
Achu held onto Su Yiyue's arm and shook it.
Su Yiyue couldn't resist her sister's coaxing, so she had no choice but to agree.
She sighed: "Be careful, come home early, okay?"
Achu immediately stood up straight and gave a playful military salute: "Yes, sir!"
Su Yiyue took out about ten points vouchers from her pocket, which could be used to buy things at the base's shop.
She then gave the house key to Achu.
Su Yiyue instructed Achu, "Once you've completed the identity registration, go get a phone card and then send me a message, okay?"
Ah Chu nodded obediently: "Yes, yes! I promise to text my sister right away!"
Su Yiyue gently rubbed A Chu's face: "Go ahead."
Goodbye, sister!
Achu turned around and ran happily towards Chenwang.
Su Yiyue looked at Shen Wang: "Captain Shen, I want to say a few words to you."
Shen Wang nodded in agreement and then told A Chu and Maiya to go get the car first.
Maiya hugged Achu tightly: "Come on, Mianmian, let me take you to see the cars in our team! Pick one you like, and we'll drive that one today!"
Achu: "Does your team have a lot of cars?"
Malt: "Only about ten vehicles."
Achu: "Wow!"
Shen Wang watched as A Chu was led away by Maiya.
Su Yiyue walked up to him, her face devoid of the warm smile she wore when facing her sister; she reverted to the aloof Dr. Su.
Chen Wang withdrew his gaze and looked at her: "What does Dr. Su want to say?"
Su Yiyue: "I didn't have a chance to thank Captain Shen yesterday. Thank you for bringing my sister safely to the Beijing base! She's caused you a lot of trouble these past few days."
"I will transfer the points reward that we agreed on to you today."
"If you need any help in the future, just let me know. As long as it's within my power."
Shen Wang could still hear A Chu and Maiya talking from time to time; their voices were sweet, soft, and cheerful.
This made the corners of his lips unconsciously turn up slightly.
Chen Wang slowly said, "No need for points, it's just on the way. Mianmian was very well-behaved and didn't cause me any trouble."
Su Yiyue looked at him, her gaze growing even colder.
“Mianmian is only nineteen years old, she’s still young, I don’t plan to agree to her dating too early.”
This is practically an explicit statement.
Chen Wang lowered his eyes, making no attempt to hide his thoughts.
"Eighteen years old is an adult. As the older sister, does Dr. Su still have to interfere with whether her younger sister is dating or not?"
Su Yiyue: "At least, I don't want her romantic partner to be a dangerous person whose true nature is hard to fathom."
At that moment, a white modified SUV drove up and stopped beside the two of them.
The back window rolled down, revealing Achu's delicate, beautiful, and smiling face: "Sister! Brother Chenwang, what are you talking about?"
Su Yiyue and Shen Wang spoke almost at the same time.
"nothing."
"Let's just chat."
Achu glanced at Chen Wang, then at Su Yiyue, and said "Oh".
Chen Wang is getting ready to board the bus.
As he passed by Su Yiyue, he whispered something.
The back door opened, and Chen Wang got in.
Ah Chu leaned out from beside Shen Wang, smiling and waving to Su Yiyue: "Bye-bye, sister!"
Su Yiyue forced a smile onto her tense face: "Bye-bye."
As she watched the white SUV drive away, Su Yiyue's smile faded.
Her brows furrowed slightly, her eyes filled with displeasure and contemplation.
Just before Shen Wang left, he said to her, "At least, I can protect her."
The power of delusion is undeniable, both before and after the apocalypse.
He's right; he can protect Achu.
If my sister insists on dating and getting married, the man's abilities are very important!
At least, it can protect her.
Thinking about it that way, Chen Wang is indeed a suitable candidate...
