The person who came didn't speak, but just stood behind the door, staring at him angrily.
Pei Yankai sighed helplessly, picked up the vaccine report on the table, and tried again to ease the tension, saying with a smile:
"Yang Mei, you are a great contributor to humanity. Congratulations! You'll probably be promoted and transferred to headquarters soon."
“Youyou said he hates you,” Yang Mei said coldly.
Pei Yankai's smile vanished instantly, and he explained anxiously, "He's just a child and doesn't understand the seriousness of the matter. Don't you understand either?"
Yang Mei sneered, "Of course I understand, so I won't use my son to become an accomplice in killing my good friend."
"Yang Mei, don't speak so harshly," Pei Yankai questioned. "My son loves me so much, how could he hate me? Are you trying to sow discord between us?"
“We’re divorced, but there’s no need to treat each other like enemies, is there? Do you really want your son to hate his biological father?”
Yang Mei shook her head, feeling that the man in front of her was so unfamiliar that she didn't even recognize him.
She hadn't come here to listen to his nonsense. Yang Mei stepped forward and took the vaccine report. "I'm just here to let you know that in five minutes, at exactly six o'clock in the afternoon, I will be in charge of the management and command of this research base."
"Therefore, Director Pei, please leave my office in five minutes and take your mercenaries with you."
"Heh~" Pei Yankai couldn't help but laugh at himself. He looked into his ex-wife's eyes. This woman looked at him with the same contempt she showed when she saw him as a pile of shit. It was simply incomprehensible!
Seeing that she was about to leave, Pei Yan rushed forward and blocked the door. "I came all the way from the island to celebrate Youyou's birthday. Am I wrong?"
"And you, Director Yang Mei!" Pei Yankai's expression turned cold. "The task assigned to you by headquarters has been thoroughly investigated, so why did you conceal it?"
"Not only did you not report it, but you also secretly built this research base and selfishly carried out observation and research. Do you even care about the lives of the lords in Area B? Do you know how terrifying that guy's power is? You even brought my son here and let him befriend that guy? Are you crazy?!"
In this respect, Yang Mei is indeed ashamed and has nothing to say.
Seeing that she didn't speak, Pei Yankai's tone became much firmer. He pointed to the vaccine development report in her hand and said, "Is what you did to Youyou for the sake of having your name on this report more honorable than what I did?"
Yang Mei was furious and shouted his name loudly: "Pei, Yan, Kai!"
"If it weren't for the fact that you're Youyou's mother, do you think the higher-ups would have let what you did in Zone B off so easily?"
Yang Mei: "Oh, I should thank you, Director Pei!"
Pei Yankai was speechless. He waved his hand, not wanting to deal with this messy, unsolvable account anymore.
But there was one thing he needed to know: a definite answer from Yang Mei.
"The search team found no clues. Do you think that guy is dead?"
Yang Mei: "I don't know."
have no idea?
That's a really interesting answer.
Pei Yankai said, "After you are transferred to headquarters, you must undergo a comprehensive examination."
Yang Mei shrugged, "Whatever."
"Since you're about to be transferred to headquarters and have upgraded privileges, there are some things I can tell you in advance."
Pei Yankai said, "You think too superficially. That thing appeared on this planet two centuries ago. Our understanding of it over the past few hundred years is just the tip of the iceberg."
"And what we know about this tip of the iceberg is very likely the tip of the iceberg that He wants us to know, do you understand?"
“Yang Mei…” Pei Yankai looked her over with concern in his eyes. “I’m worried that you’ve been controlled by Him.”
Yang Mei met his suspicious gaze openly and honestly, "So what if I'm controlled? I actually hope to be controlled, it will be more conducive to my understanding of Him."
Pei Yankai exclaimed in disbelief, "You've really gone mad!"
Yang Mei didn't respond to his words. After thinking for a moment, she sincerely said, "With the successful development of the vaccine, it is the hero of mankind. This damned SHASI virus will finally become a thing of the past."
“Pei Yankai, He is more compassionate than you or I think. I believe that humanity should establish friendly communication with Him, rather than solving problems with incendiary bombs.” When talking about these things, Yang Mei seemed like a different person, her expression extremely devout.
Pei Yankai became even more determined to give her a full check-up when they returned to headquarters.
"Are you having dinner?" he asked expectantly.
Yang Mei shook her head at him, "Youyou said he doesn't want to see you. I'll have dinner with him. Director Pei, pack your things and get out of here with your people. Bye."
Yang Mei waved arrogantly at Pei Yankai and left with her success report in her arms.
But on the way to the restaurant, the switch between her roles as director and mother made this confident woman feel uneasy and nervous.
Children are actually very smart, especially since parents often unconsciously discuss "that scary guy" in front of their children. Youyou has already realized that his playmate Zhao Xiaoxiu is different from ordinary people.
August in Zone B was chaotic and tense. Dad was busy searching for missing persons in the mountains, Mom was busy with her vaccine research report, and Youyou stayed alone in the room watching the news broadcast, clutching the satellite phone tightly in her hand.
He was waiting for Zhao Xiaoxiu's call, hoping to hear her say: I'm back, I'm fine, I'll be right over with a gift, let's eat birthday cake together!
But he still doesn't know what the birthday present Zhao Xiaoxiu prepared for him is.
Because from that day on, he never received another call from her.
Zhao Xiaoxiu must hate him to death. She must know that the incendiary bomb was launched by his father. She must never want to talk to him again.
