Han Chen methodically explained the fundamental purpose and impact of Yu Nian and the others' trip.
Yu Nian nodded and said, "In other words, my sister and I are only responsible for comforting the victims?"
"That's right."
"By the way, those Zerg you just mentioned, are they dangerous?"
"The Zerg possess an exceptionally hard shell and an attacking power akin to the living dead, insensitive to pain and life. Their sickle-shaped forelimbs can even penetrate the latest hardened materials. Their compound eyes can keenly detect the presence of females and orcs at close range, and their sense of smell is exceptionally keen. Furthermore... their appearance is rather ugly."
Han Chen briefly explained the image of the Zerg that he had seen in the holographic picture. He had never fought against the Zerg, but military history books talked about the Zerg's terrifying combat power.
Yu Nian remembered that in the original plot, Yu Zhaozhao, as the heroine, had contacted the pirates privately to understand the dynamics of the Zerg, and finally successfully captured the Zerg Queen, used it to lure the Zerg and severely damaged it.
The matter of the M system didn't seem to be elaborated on, except for a mention of, "Yu Zhaozhao accidentally discovered traces of Zerg life in the M system, and used these clues to successfully locate the Zerg's lair."
It's just that the Zerg were migrating at the time and accidentally harmed the residents of the M galaxy on the way, which exposed their tracks.
When Yu Zhaozhao led people to look for it, they only found the old nest destroyed by the Zerg.
But if she had reminded the heroine to find the Zerg's nest in advance, perhaps they could have been wiped out before the Zerg migrated.
Yu Nian has always felt guilty for inexplicably stealing the heroine's auspicious sign. After all, this is what Yu Zhaozhao should have had. If she interferes like this and affects the heroine's ending, it would be a sin.
After finishing their meal, Yu Nian and Han Chen went to the meeting room together.
There were already many people sitting at the rectangular conference table.
Yu Nian just glanced over the heads of those people and his heart began to pound with nervousness.
"Your Highness, please sit on the left side of the seat." Han Chen stood behind her and said in a low voice.
Yu Nian looked over and saw the empty seat, as well as Yu Zhaozhao with a serious expression.
Sitting in the main seat was a man in a senior military officer's uniform, and on his right was Bai Yuheng.
"That's General Pei, the commander of this mission." Han Chen said in a low voice after bringing Yu Nian to her seat.
He stood behind Yu Nian and carefully explained all her little questions.
Yu Zhaozhao was an arm's length away from Yu Nian, so she could only hear a few words of their private conversation.
After the meeting started, Pei Ling made a few brief opening remarks, then turned on the virtual projection screen to begin analyzing and arranging the plan to search for and eliminate the Zerg in the M galaxy.
Pei Ling spoke and acted decisively, and he looked very imposing as he sat in the main seat, but he also had a cold temperament, which made people not think that this general was very cold.
Yu Nian looked at the various data appearing on the blue screen floating in the air and felt a little dizzy. They were clearly all numbers, so why was they put together so well that she couldn't understand them?
She quietly turned her head to look at Yu Zhaozhao and found that not only did he understand, but he was also frowning and thinking, without affecting his note-taking.
Yu Nian bit her lip and pretended to understand.
Although she didn't understand, the important thing was to participate.
The meeting lasted for two hours without any sign of stopping. Yu Nian had slowly lowered his head without him noticing, and his eyelids began to twitch.
Yu Nian, who was fighting fiercely with sleep, didn't notice at all that a cold gaze swept across her.
Han Chen saw clearly that Yu Nian was sleepy at the moment, so he ordered a batch of coffee on the terminal.
"Today's meeting ends here. We will have a second meeting tomorrow at the same time."
Pei Ling tidied up the documents on the table and his eyes fell on Yu Nian, who was leaning her head on the table.
His gaze lingered for a moment, and his emotions were a little complicated.
Yu Zhaozhao had also noticed the sleeping Yu Nian a long time ago. She coughed lightly twice, but the person next to her did not move, obviously sleeping very soundly.
She stood up and said to Han Chen, "When she wakes up, send her back to the lounge safely... and have an early night."
People in the conference room left one after another. Han Chen woke Yu Nian up quietly. Seeing her sleepy look, he couldn't bear to say anything harsh. "Niannian, the meeting is over. Let's go back first."
Yu Nian subconsciously hugged Han Chen's arm and muttered, "I'm so sleepy. I start to feel sleepy as soon as he talks..."
Only one person was left in the meeting room.
Pei Ling sat in the main seat and continued to handle official business. His adjutant knocked on the door and entered: "General, would you like to order food?"
The man looked up and replied to his adjutant, "Order something lighter."
Yu Nian hung on Han Chen's arm like a koala all the way, until she threw herself into the soft quilt, and then she felt alive again.
"It's half past ten! He can actually talk to himself for over three hours!"
Yu Nian looked at the time and said in surprise.
Han Chen just poured a cup of warm water and handed it to Yu Nian: "Leaders are usually good at talking."
However, Pei Ling never speaks in a vague way, and the resolutions he proposes are always admirable.
Yu Nian drank two sips of water, and then she felt her soul come back a little, "I have a meeting tomorrow..."
"I have ordered coffee in advance, so I shouldn't be so sleepy tomorrow." Han Chen said considerately.
“It’s not about the coffee…”
Yu Nian rubbed his sore eyes and felt deeply worried about his future.
"I have prepared all the toiletries in the bathroom. Get up and take a shower first, and then go to sleep later." Han Chen said.
Yu Nian climbed up from the bed reluctantly.
By the time she finished washing up and went to bed, it was almost twelve o'clock. Yu Nian touched the empty quilt beside her and suddenly wanted to call Han Chen back from next door.
She opened the terminal and sent a message to Han Chen: [Yu Nian: Are you asleep?]
Han Chen quickly replied: [Han Chen: You haven't slept yet, do you want to chat with me? ]
[Yu Nian: Han Chen, why don’t you come and sleep with me, /starry eyes/]
After Yu Nian sent the message, she didn't receive a reply from the other party. She felt a little disappointed and wondered if Han Chen was silently rejecting her?
The moment she heard the knock on the door, Yu Nian ran to the door with shining eyes to open it. When she saw Han Chen, the smile on her face was so bright that it almost bloomed into a flower.
"Han Chen, why did you come here directly?"
She asked the question knowing the answer, but she quickly pulled Han Chen into the house.
The door closed with a bang.
"Didn't Nian Nian want me to come over?"
Yu Nian hooked her arm around Han Chen's neck and hugged him tightly, "You just left while I was taking a shower."
She understood that this was a tactic of playing hard to get, so she asked Han Chen to come and sleep with her.
Han Chen didn't say anything, but looked at her with a pair of blue eyes, like the calm and beautiful sea, full of infinite tolerance and tenderness that belonged only to her.
Their cheeks touched, their breaths blending.
"Han Chen, do you want to go to bed early tonight?"
