Chapter 143 Elder He



He Jiexiong had been observing from the second-floor balcony for quite a while.

As the most authoritative elder in the He family, he didn't need to say much.

As long as his personal secretary came down to say hello, Shen Jing was invited up to the second floor of the He family's house.

Shen Jing's face was filled with a fierce aura.

Upon first seeing her, He Jiexiong felt a surge of affection for her.

Even though she had almost struck her own grandson with lightning.

"Young lady, you've come to see me, haven't you?" He Jiexiong struck up a conversation with Shen Jing quite naturally.

Unlike Mr. Zheng, He Jiexiong was a short-tempered old man who commanded respect without anger.

Judging from his similar appearance to Zhang Fei, he'd probably scare children to tears if he went out.

In short, he has a rather rugged appearance.

He Qing probably looks like his mother; I don't know what his father is like, but thankfully he doesn't look like his grandfather...

"Yes, we came to see you."

"Then tell me, why did you come to the He family in such a grand manner to cause trouble? Did you think you could leave as easily as you would at the research institute?" He Jiexiong was already intimidating-looking, and this time his expression changed instantly, his eyes fixed on Shen Jing.

He thought Shen Jing looked to be in her early twenties, quite pretty, but her thinking was too immature.

He Jiexiong snorted coldly.

After scaring Shen Jing, he calmly took a sip of tea.

News of the incident at the research institute reached the He family even faster than it did of Shen Jing. He Jiexiong had just been looking at her photo, jokingly scolding his most prized grandson for being unable to resist the charms of a beautiful woman!

And the little girl actually killed so many researchers at once!

Shen Jing looked at He Jiexiong expressionlessly.

Just as you strike a snake at its vital point, in cooperation negotiations, you should focus on what the other party wants.

Moreover, since she took the initiative to come to their door, she was already at a disadvantage.

"Do you believe the He family will be defeated by the Huang family, and utterly defeated at that?"

These words struck a nerve with He Jiexiong.

He laughed in exasperation, "Is this all you came here for?"

I originally had a pretty good impression of her.

Now that I hear what she says, it turns out she didn't come to seek his protection, but rather to give him guidance.

How ignorant a child!

Even if He Qing didn't build the base single-handedly using the He family's resources, Xiao Huang was still his former defeated opponent!

He wants him to be subordinate to that big yellow ox? Dream on!

Shen Jing had anticipated his reaction.

The crackling sound continued to emanate from her palm, as a small thunderstorm was gathering in Shen Jing's hand.

She said calmly, "The Huang family has more potential superhumans than you do now, and they are very united."

After all, the Huang family currently only has one son and one grandson to support its household, so they can't even start fighting amongst themselves. However, Huang You's social skills are exceptional; he has recruited several times more people than the He family.

Even though He Qing is the base commander, he is not as good as him.

He Jiexiong was also thinking of that young man from the Huang family. He had watched these younger generations grow up and naturally understood them.

So, there have been quite a few more people coming and going from the Huang family recently.

At first, I thought it was because He Qing was implementing a points system, and they were planning to team up to earn points. It seems it's not that simple; is the Huang family trying to crush the He family with their numbers?

He Jiexiong's face showed a thoughtful expression.

He's lived so many years, of course he didn't grow old for nothing, so naturally he doesn't take these kids seriously.

But the He family cannot fall!

No one knew the Huang family's true nature better than him.

Both father and son were obsessed with power and profit, disregarding whether ordinary survivors were alive or dead!

He knew that his own family had produced some unworthy descendants, but as long as he was alive, he could properly discipline them.

Unlike the Huang family, who are rotten to the core, hmph!

"The superpower you're talking about, is it the thing you're crackling around with?"

He Jiexiong was the only one besides the team members who knew that He Qing had awakened fire-type superpowers.

Asking Shen Jing this question now is also to provoke the young girl in front of me.

How can someone so young have such a deep mind?

Shen Jing chuckled, "What if I told you that superpowers can be artificially developed and awakened?"

He Jiexiong couldn't help but stand up abruptly.

Can it be developed?

With his keen eye for people, he could tell that Shen Jing wasn't someone who spoke carelessly.

The superpowers that are rumored to be divine, or what they call special abilities, can actually be artificially created.

He couldn't help but think of the innocent soldiers who had sacrificed their lives while searching for supplies.

They were all his soldiers, the youngest of whom was only in his early twenties!

He Jiexiong glanced at the expressionless Shen Jing, then walked to the window and looked out at the base's perimeter wall.

The erected walls, I wonder how long they can hold off those zombie monsters...

Due to the base's new points system, many more private teams have been formed independently.

Then even more people went out to search for supplies.

He Jiexiong didn't waste any words and asked, "How confident are you?"

Anyone with eyes could see that He Jiexiong was tempted, after all, this decision concerned the lives of many ordinary survivors.

Shen Jing sighed inwardly.

In the end, she was only acting in her own self-interest.

She can't save the world; this is all she can do.

"I have conditions."

"Speak!" He Jiexiong was a little dissatisfied; they were talking about conditions before the matter was even settled!

And would the He family mistreat her?

This is a major event concerning the country and even the world!

Shen Jing, on the other hand, remained indifferent.

Although many plot lines have changed.

For example, she did not settle in the western base in her previous life.

However, Zhang Bofan appeared at the research institute, and he mutated because of Gu Chen's evolution agent.

That means Gu Chen will still bring her to the lab just like he did in his previous life.
