Chapter 678 Doubts
Even those who are not used to seeing General Cheng's family hope that they can succeed.
After all, they all live in the same base, and this is also for their own benefit. It is naturally good for them to continue to breed mutants.
Cheng Jiayi looked at her watch. It was almost the agreed time, but there was still no sign of Chi Ye and others below. She was a little worried.
But when she thought that it was Yun Shuhuai, it was impossible for him to be in any danger, so she guessed that something might have delayed him on the way.
After all, it is so dangerous outside, and fewer and fewer forces dare to go out recently.
No matter how many mutants they caught, Cheng Jiayi hoped most that they all returned safely.
Now it was past the agreed time, and the people on the city wall still hadn't seen any trace of the convoy, and some began to get restless.
Suddenly, the sound of a car engine seemed to come from afar, and the people on the city wall instantly became excited. They stretched their necks with binoculars and looked into the depths of the forest in the distance.
They could vaguely see the shadow of the car.
"They're back! They must be them!"
"Ahhh! Boss, they're finally back! I missed them so much."
"Great! With so many high-level superpowers coming, they must have returned with a full load, and we'll have meat to eat in the future!"
Cheng Jiayi breathed a sigh of relief and continued to watch them through the telescope, but she noticed that there seemed to be only the shadow of a car in the woods, and no convoy of mutants was seen.
Naturally, the other people on the city wall also noticed it.
Someone said, "That's not right, why do I feel like I only saw one car."
As the car got closer and closer, everyone gradually saw the full picture of the car.
"Oh my god, it's true. Is that Chi Ye? Didn't they say they came back after capturing a lot of mutants? Am I blind? Why didn't I see it?"
Logically, Chi Ye had been out for three whole days. With their strength, they must have been able to capture a lot of mutants, and the convoy carrying mutants must have been very long, but now the vehicles have driven out of the forest, but there is nothing behind them.
"Haha, it seems that Chi Ye has spoken out of turn."
Someone who was hostile to Cheng Jiayi mocked, and many people echoed him.
Most of these people were from the faction that hoped to save Zhou Mei's life and control the Cheng family. Seeing that Chi Ye did not bring back any mutants, they began to sneer.
Cheng Jiayi turned around and looked at them coldly, saying, "We don't know the situation of Chiye yet. Is it too early for you to draw conclusions now?"
Someone sneered and said, "Jiayi, it's obvious that the car below is Chiye's, but there is no vehicle carrying mutants behind their car. Are you saying that those mutants can be invisible? Hahahaha."
Others also laughed.
General Cheng's group looked unhappy.
Cheng Jiayi said angrily again: "Uncles, what good will it do you to say that Chi Ye failed to catch the mutants? Do you really hope that they will fail?!"
"Oh Jiayi, you can't say that. We are just stating the facts in front of us. Am I wrong? Everyone is watching now. I can't lie."
Another person said, "If we had known this, we might as well keep Zhou Mei. Even if she is a waste, she has brought back mutants every time, right?"
"That's right, it would be a pity to kill her. Some people just like to act impulsively."
"You!"
Cheng Jiayi looked at them and was so angry that he wanted to hit them.
Cheng Xiuyi held down the agitated sister's shoulders and said calmly: "Calm down Jiayi, there is no need to be angered by them. Don't you believe Miss Yun and the others?"
"Of course I believe them! It's these people. They are really... Oh, they are really infuriating!"
"Since you believe them, don't pay attention to them. They are deliberately angering you. Don't forget that every time Chi Ye does something, it's unexpected. Since Miss Yun said in person this morning that a large number of mutant animals have been captured, there must be some. Don't worry."
Cheng Jiayi thought about the things Yun Shuhuai had done before. It really exceeded her imagination throughout the whole process. This made her ignore that Yun Shuhuai had actually completed all the things he promised them.
So this time she must have succeeded.
After thinking it through, Cheng Jiayi no longer paid attention to the sarcasm of those people, and stared straight at the car speeding in the distance.
It was the off-road vehicle that they took when they left. There was no stain or damage on the body of the car. When they got closer, through the front window, they could clearly see Xi Ling in the driver's seat and Yun Shuhuai leaning leisurely on the co-pilot seat.
Cheng Jiayi breathed a sigh of relief, which meant that they were all safe.
Their car was driving very fast, and when they drove to the buffer zone, the front of the car suddenly rose up, and then everyone found that the off-road vehicle actually "flew" up and rushed straight towards the city wall diagonally above.
With the crowd's exclamations, the vehicle landed steadily on the city wall.
"Wuhu! It's so exciting! I told you it would work."
Yun Shuhuai said happily as he got off the co-pilot seat.
Then, the other people got out of the car with weak legs. Xi Qing complained, "Why didn't you tell me in advance? I was drinking milk tea just now, and it almost spilled on my face."
Du Hao also complained loudly, "It was clearly spilled all over me!"
After he came out, there was a large stain of milk tea on his white clothes in front of him, and he looked very shabby.
"Ahahahaha, I'm sorry, I'll blow it for you."
"You want to freeze me to death? Never mind, it's okay, just change clothes when we get back."
"..."
Chi Ye and his men got out of the car chatteringly. They all seemed to be in a good mood, which was out of tune with the solemn atmosphere around them.
At this time, Cheng Jiayi ran over from the other side of the city wall, excitedly jumped up and hugged Yun Shuhuai's neck.
"Shuhuai! You are finally back! Are you all right?"
Xi Ling tore her off his girlfriend unhappily, "What do you think can happen to us?"
Cheng Jiayi was pulled back by the collar by Xi Ling. She rolled her eyes at him and said, "Yes, yes, you are the strongest, but I didn't ask you, I asked Shuhuai."
If time had gone forward another half a year, Cheng Jiayi would never have imagined that his relationship with Xi Ling would become like this.
Seeing that a war was about to break out, Yun Shuhuai quickly separated them, "No quarreling!"
Xi Ling swallowed back the sarcastic words that were about to come out.
Cheng Jiayi glared at Xi Ling with pride.
At this moment, the other waiting people also came over one after another.
General Cheng and Cheng Xiuyi simply greeted Xi Ling and others, but someone couldn't wait to start mocking.
"Chi Ye, did you really catch the mutant?"
Yun Shuhuai paused and looked at the person who made the discordant sound.
This person had strongly requested to let Zhou Mei go, but after being rejected by Cheng Jiayi, he has been targeting her. Judging from the unhappy faces of the three members of the Cheng family, it seems that these people must have had a quarrel before they came back.
Yun Shuhuai curled his lips slightly, and the other members of Chiye also laughed disdainfully.
Du Hao laughed the loudest and scolded back without any courtesy: "How can you see that we didn't catch the mutant? Just because you are hiding safely in the base, you still have the qualifications to accuse us of running around outside for you? Do we owe you anything? What's your attitude?"
The other members of Chiye also looked at those people with unfriendly faces.
To be frank, with the strength of Chiye, it is their great honor to come to this base. They have done so many things for them, but they dare to go too far and accuse them. They are really a bunch of ungrateful people.
The eldest sister-in-law is right. It is better to leave. Staying here is thankless.
General Cheng glared at the man fiercely and apologized to Chiye, "I am very sorry, everyone in Chiye, we did not think so. We have seen everything Chiye has done since it came to the S City base. Everyone present has received your kindness. We cannot repay you for your kindness. We will never forget it and dare not ask you to do anything for us."
The people of General Cheng's faction also bowed their heads at the right time, and other hesitant people looked around and bowed their heads to express their apologies.
In the end, all that was left was to mock those people. Their faces turned red and white, and finally they reluctantly lowered their heads.
General Cheng's apology was very sincere, which formed a sharp contrast with those people. Yun Shuhuai felt that there was no need to anger normal people for such a few bad apples.
