Stabilizing Madness

Chapter 77: tease

Views:

Xu Qingran and Mo Chengfei had a very 'pleasant' meeting.

The first wave of harvest was greater than he expected.

In Mo Chengfei's words, to meet his demands now, the money would not even be enough to buy one of the small companies under his control.

When the discussion ended, Mo Chengfei received another call.

I didn't know the identity of the person on the other side, but his tone and attitude sounded particularly peaceful and respectful.

After hanging up the phone, Mo Chengfei asked him, "I'm going to have dinner with a partner I have a good relationship with later. Do you want to come?"

Although Xu Qingran was puzzled, he thought that anyone who could have dinner with Mo Chengfei must be no small figure, so he agreed to go.

When they arrived at the restaurant, he followed Mo Chengfei to the reserved top floor.

Sitting at the reserved table was a woman with hair dyed very close to his, with bold and unrestrained wavy curls. She had flaming red lips, a graceful figure, and a mature charm all over her body.

Age... Anyway, he looks at least one generation younger than Mo Chengfei.

Xu Qingran glanced at Mo Chengfei silently.

He tried hard not to have any strange thoughts or look at his relationship with his partner with prejudice.

Before he sat down, Mo Chengfei introduced him: "Qingran, this is the second princess of the Kaian Empire, Mu Yesha."

Xu Qingran was slightly startled, and then he looked at Mu Yesha again, and hesitantly said: "Hello, Second Princess."

The legendary second princess who is a scientific research fanatic

The style was completely different from what he had expected, and he seemed to be a person with quite a personality.

Mu Yesha stood up and shook hands with him, smiling generously: "Mr. Xu Qingran, right?"

"Nice to meet you. Although I have never met you, I have heard of your name quite a few times."

Several people sat down together.

The restaurant served them food quickly.

Mu Yesha held the soup spoon and stirred the sweet and thick pumpkin soup in the bowl, then said to Xu Qingran, "The higher-ups have asked me to intervene in the affairs of the Silver Dragon Camp recently. I heard that my useless brother sent you to the Upper South Continent of the Tianlong System."

Xu Qingran thought for a moment and said, "It's good to go to Nanzhou."

Muyesha laughed when she heard this: "This is the first time I've heard a senior officer serving in Upper South Continent give such an evaluation."

“But this is not bad.”

"The team I sent to Taiyue Star for field research earlier brought me back a lot of samples of the flora, fauna and land there. I am getting more and more greedy after seeing them."

Muyesha had intended to expand her research to the Tianlong system a long time ago.

However, she waited for a long time, but the situation in Tianlong did not improve. Instead, it got worse and worse. Most of the territory was occupied by the devils, and the camp was gradually giving up. The generals did not take any action, so the plan had to be shelved temporarily.

It’s not that she hadn’t reported to Yinlong about Tianlong being ignored, but perhaps because of the rebellion of the people and the guards there, the Empire seemed to want to crack down on them, so it acquiesced in Tianlong’s exile.

However, he had just finished a phone call with Mo Chengfei, and on the way here he mentioned to her some ideas of his junior Xu Qingran on changing Tianlong's current situation.

She was familiar with the name Xu Qingran. She occasionally surfed the Internet, but she mainly heard about him from people around her. The evolution of the rumors about him was also very magical. It was rare to meet someone who was surrounded by complaints and scolding at the beginning, but in the end, he only admired and praised him.

Naturally, Mu Yesha became interested in Xu Qingran as well.

She told him, “Let’s add a contact number.”

"Let's not talk about the entire Tianlong system. Just talking about Taiyue Star, as long as you can restore it to 70% within five years, I can start building a research base there. I have a lot of connections, and now I have a say in Yinlong. I can help you get whatever you want and need."

Mu Yesha smiled and said, "What I want is very simple. Tianlong is such a great place. I hope to have a second base there like Linglong City."

Xu Qingran also laughed.

This is not simple at all.

He lowered his eyes and thought for a moment, then said, "Five years?"

Muyesha: "Why? Do you think there is too little time?"

She set a deadline mainly because she hoped Xu Qingran would not slack off just because he was relied upon.

Just as I was considering whether to stretch it for him, I heard him say, "No, it's too long."

Xu Qingran slightly curved his eyes and said, "If it's just Taiyue Star, two years will be enough."

There was a moment of silence at the dinner table.

Even Mo Chengfei, who was listening to their conversation silently while eating, couldn't help but turn his head to look at Xu Qingran.

After a long while, Mu Yesha laughed out loud: "Oh, I heard that the eldest young master of the Xu family is particularly arrogant. Now that I see him in person, it is indeed true."

"But I just like your arrogance."

Xu Qingran and Mu Yesha exchanged contact information.

Connections 1.

The atmosphere at the dinner table was pretty good, and Mu Yesha discussed medical production and research with Mo Chengfei.

After they finished discussing their affairs, Mo Chengfei turned around and reminded him with a stern face: "I have no confidence in the current situation of Silver Dragon. It is only because you went to Shangnanzhou that I believe it can change. Although I have a good relationship with the Qi family, if you mess up, I will definitely settle this account with you clearly."

"You'd better not let me and your grandmother down."

Xu Qingran smiled: "No problem."

The meal we had tonight didn’t look cheap just by the appearance.

When he was ready to pay the bill, he realized that this restaurant in the city center, with rich and noble customers, was also related to the Mo family. Before leaving, Mo Chengfei waved his hand and asked the waiter to take out the most expensive red wine in the restaurant and gave him and Mu Yesha a bottle each.

It is said that it comes from the imperial royal family's royal winery.

The owner of the winery was a good friend of Mo Chengfei, and every year he could get a few bottles of high-quality wine from him.

Xu Qingran was so envious that he almost couldn't help but ask him for another bottle.

Of course, he still maintained the bottom line as a human being.

system:"… "

This is the first time I know that its host has this kind of thing.

Mu Yesha seemed to be a drinker, so she didn't refuse and accepted it with excitement: "Oh, I knew you must have hidden a few bottles of this wine here."

"Thank you so much, Mr. Mo. I will definitely treat it well!"

After saying that, she happily carried the bottle of red wine, stepped on her red high heels, and left with a charming step.

Mo Chengfei sent Xu Qingran back to where his aircraft was parked before parting with him.

On the way back to the aircraft, Xu Qingran couldn't help but send a message to Qi Heqian, asking him about the amount of inheritance he was about to take over from the Qi family.

He really didn't know much about financial management, and he had now entrusted the assets left by Qi Shengxue to the Qi family to handle. I heard that his uncle had also made plans for him in advance and helped him use the extra money to make formal investments, so he might have made some money during this period.

Qi Heqian only replied to him when he returned to the big villa in Bishui Villa.

[Qi Heqian: The file has been sent to your email.]

Xu Qingran took a casual glance.

My mood suddenly became balanced.

It turns out that he is quite rich, and it seems that he has more than enough money to buy the entire Shangnanzhou

But compared to the Mo family, it is still far behind.

It doesn't matter.

Xu Qingran thought to himself, having money is one thing, as long as he is good at fighting, it will be fine. This way, even if he is short of money in the future, he can earn it with his fists.

The kind of way to make money by just punching me without paying.

system:"… "

This is not right!

Xu Qingran thought about it and sent another message to Qi Heqian.

[Please tell my third uncle to arrange some funds for me. I want to invest in Nanzhou.]

[Qi Heqian: ???]

The main reason Xu Qingran returned to the prosperous galaxy this time was to send Shen Tingyu back, so as to avoid making this clingy big dog unhappy again.

His original plan was to send Shen Tingyu off, discuss with Mu Ziyu what he wanted, and then go back immediately. However, after hearing from Adjutant Mao that the group of people in Shangnanzhou were doing quite well and that they missed him very much, he decided to stay for a few more days.

Anyway, he had done everything he should do before leaving, and he could also take the opportunity to wait for Mu Ziyu to organize the first batch of resources for him and take them back together.

However, his vacation was not a relaxing one.

The day after meeting Mo Chengfei, Mu Ziyu, who had been threatened by him some time ago, called him personally.

Her tone and attitude were much better than before, and she asked him, "Xu Qingran, when will you return to Shangnanzhou?"

Xu Qingran thought he was here to urge her to work again: "When you get the things ready for me, I'll go back."

Mu Ziyu on the opposite side was quiet for a moment, and said, "That will take some time... It just so happens that you have nothing to do anyway, so why not come and make some contributions to the camp."

Xu Qingran: "Mu Ziyu, what do you want to do?"

Mu Ziyu coughed a few times uncomfortably. He tried to maintain his last bit of pride over the phone, and gave orders in the noble tone of an imperial prince: "That's right, the demon cleanup in Red City in the Andromeda system and the West 7th District has reached a critical moment recently."

West District 7 is also the result of several years of planning in Yinlongying.

Unlike the difficult progress in Nanzhou, not only has the largest overlord been locked, but the progress of clearing the demon groups in the entire area has reached 90%. As long as the overlord can be eliminated and a little finishing work is done, the 7th district of Red City West can be taken back and re-defended.

"Then what?" Xu Qingran asked.

Mu Ziyu hesitated for a while, then said arrogantly: "The commander in charge of West District 7 was injured temporarily and is temporarily unable to complete his work. The other squad leaders have their own work arrangements, and the troop plans have been arranged and cannot be shelved... Don't you need to accumulate merits?"

"I'll arrange for you to go there now. It'll be a good opportunity for you to show yourself."

"I, I'm telling you, the honor of the camp status is not something you can get just by beating me up. You have to fight for it yourself!"

After listening to Mu Ziyu for a long time, Xu Qingran roughly understood the main point.

We just needed someone to help us temporarily, and he happened to be the least busy commander among all the Yinlong commanders, so we called him to work.

He sat on the sofa in a very comfortable position, and said lazily: "Mu Ziyu, is it so difficult for you to beg me?"

Mu Ziyu: "... Love comes or not!"

He hung up the phone angrily.

Xu Qingran didn't care. He stayed at home, watched some TV, ate some fruit, and relaxed.

During this time, I also saw the news that Ming Hai was sent to the evil tower. Amidst the shouting and cursing, he seemed not to feel people's anger towards him, and smiled heartlessly at the interview camera: "I will endure the punishment I have earned, work hard to graduate, and become an E-type who can be controlled by Colonel Xu Qingran obediently."

Netizens' reactions:

[…]

My silence is deafening.

[Could it be that the most feared and wanted criminal, E-type Ming Hai, is actually a masochist? ]

[I can only say that the little madman is quite something.]

[Oh, I also want to be controlled by the young master. ]

[Sister upstairs, you???]

[[Covering face] Oh, I’m a cute boy. ]

[I can't stand it. I miss Xiao Fengzi so much. When will he start broadcasting? Why did I see the news that Xiao Fengzi is back from Tianlong! ]

Xu Qingran watched and thought that he hadn't done a live broadcast for a long time.

I logged into the account and took a look, and the number of followers increased instead of decreased.

He was just thinking about whether he should take some time to meet his dear fans when Mu Ziyu called again.

After the call was connected, there was silence on the other end for a long time.

Xu Qingran didn't hear the sound for a long time. He raised his eyebrows slightly and said with a lazy ending: "Hmm?"

The person on the other end of the phone cursed angrily, and deliberately held the phone away so that he wouldn't hear. Finally, with a tone that was three parts angry, three parts aggrieved, and four parts ashamed, he said weakly: "... Please, Xu Qingran."

"I really need help now!!"

Mu Ziyu was so angry that he exploded. In his rage, he accidentally pulled the wound on his body that had not yet fully healed. He gasped with a distorted face.

In fact, over the years, through the efforts of the military, the positions of Type I overlords in several regions have been successfully locked down.

The real difficulty is to lock on to the source crystals on them. There are not many people in the military who have high source crystal detection talents. If the spiritual pool level is not matched, the detection progress will be even more difficult. Especially every time when the detection reaches about 95%, the final complete perception is simply a big hurdle.

No matter how many people work together, it will be useless. For those who are not gifted in perception, that 5% is an insurmountable barrier.

It would take many times longer, which would indirectly hinder the progress of the cleanup. The devils had strong regeneration and reproduction capabilities, so if the cleanup progress could not be followed up according to the calculated plan, all previous calculations would be wasted and they would have to start all over again.

This is also why, in the following decades, even though the Empire had grasped some of the demons' weaknesses, it still found it so difficult to expel them.

Just like this time, if the plan is not carried out according to schedule, most of the camp’s previous efforts will be wasted.

Mu Ziyu was feeling worried when he heard Xu Qingran's joyful chuckle from the other side of the phone, which made his ears turn red.

Then I heard him say slowly: "Okay, prepare all the necessary information, I will go to the headquarters to find you to take the task now."

After Xu Qingran replied, he hung up the phone.

Mu Ziyu sat in the office, staring at the phone in his hand, gritting his teeth in shame and anger.

He put the wireless phone back heavily as if he was throwing a tantrum.

It’s really annoying. How could there be such a hateful person like Xu Qingran!

Xu Qingran changed his clothes and went out, with the white dog that came with him.

Without any hesitation, he received the military order from Mu Ziyu, received the detection progress of the Type I devil in District 7 of Hongcheng West, and prepared to set off with the information.

This time he was the main commander of the mission, and Yinlong had a special escort team and a special plane to pick him up. He didn't need to drive himself, and could take advantage of the time on the road to read all the progress and arrangements for the cleanup of the target area.

When Xu Qingran came out of Mu Ziyu's office, all the staff at the headquarters were looking at him.

First they were shocked by his return, then they admired him as a person. This was the first time they saw him wearing the formal Silver Dragon uniform, with its shining silver medals and brooches. The windbreaker, which was always criticized by many people as being too shabby, took it to a new level when he put it on.

So handsome.

It made them realize that they had wrongly blamed the designer of the Silver Dragon uniforms for so many years. It turned out that Xu Qingran was sincere when he said that their Silver Dragon uniforms were very handsome, but they just couldn't wear them to look as cool as he saw.

The command to eliminate overlord-type alien creatures is generally a major general-level job in galaxies other than Tianlong.

At the very least, he has to be a big shot like Lu Cheng, a colonel in the headquarters.

Although, Xu Qingran is also a big shot to some extent.

However, most of the elite soldiers who went on the mission were experienced veterans. Even if there were many rumors about this newcomer who had just graduated from the military academy less than a year ago, without having seen his performance with their own eyes, they would have some doubts and distrust in their hearts.

Xu Qingran has become numb to this situation.

Even if I can feel this kind of atmosphere, I am too lazy to explain it proactively.

Because he knew very well that the moment he stood on the command ship and began to carry out his mission—

He will become the center of attention.

·

Whenever Xu Qingran appears, there will be gossip. This seems to have become an unspoken rule among netizens in the Kaian Empire.

Look, he just came back quietly to take a vacation, but various social platforms and forums on the Internet were discussing this matter.

The internet is full of blurry photos of netizens encountering him here and there.

It was fine at first.

Later, it was unknown which black fan finally gave him an opportunity to start spreading rumors about Xu Qingran.

The "evidence" he used to spread rumors were several photos of Xu Qingran.

In the photo, Xu Qingran was captured walking out of the restaurant side by side with a beautiful woman.

Because of the angle and the fact that the other party's target was only Xu Qingran, only his appearance could be seen clearly. The woman accompanying him was very blurry, and most of the time only her back was visible. But she looked like she was very rich.

In addition to him and this woman, there were also photos of him and Mr. Mo coming out of the company and getting into his car.

Some scenes where Xu Qingran is smiling and seems to have a close relationship with the boss.

It is said that he is popular with both men and women, and ordinary perverted behaviors can no longer satisfy him.

He also said that because the Xu family had fallen, Xu Yan's power had been hollowed out and his funds had been frozen, so he could no longer maintain his status as the "young master" and had to start hanging out with rich women and local tyrants to gain benefits.

Fortunately, most netizens are still relatively rational.

[Alas, as expected, wherever the little madman is, there is blood and gore. ]

[There are melons! There are melons to eat again! ]

[Yes, yes, that rich woman is me, it’s me! ]

[I am really impressed. It has been so long. Why are the haters still holding on to the little lunatic? They are like mad dogs, and they will bite him whenever they get the chance.]

[Sisters upstairs, please don't insult the dog. ]

[It's so funny. You haters, why don't you check the facts first? You spread rumors that he is immoral and has an affair with General Shen from the opposite camp. These are more credible than this.]

[Hahahahahahaha, maybe the beautiful woman is actually Admiral Shen wearing a wig! ]

Maybe netizens are too bored recently, this kind of gossip that sounds particularly fake has become popular in a short time.

Xu Qingran's name was everywhere again.

He himself did not come out to clarify, and the little black fans became more and more excited.

Until the official satellite channel of the Silver Dragon Camp broadcast military-related news.

"After many days, the tug-of-war between the Red City Demon Group and the Silver Dragon Army Guards FR Andromeda System has made new progress!"

"After the efforts of the military, the largest Class I target in Red City West District 7 has been successfully killed! According to the latest news from frontline reporters, the Silver Dragon military said that it will only take about another month to completely complete the cleanup of Red City West District 7!"

"If the cleanup goes smoothly, Silver Dragon will be able to announce the re-occupation of West District 7, and after improving the military and confirming safety, it will be reopened to the people of Silver Dragon."

A reporter from Newsline randomly interviewed a guard who had just completed his mission.

Judging from the clothes he was wearing, he seemed to be a captain. His eyes were bright when he faced the camera, his face was filled with joy, his hands were folded in front of him and rubbed slightly, he was so excited that he couldn't calm down, and he kept making small movements.

The reporter was infected by his excitement and couldn't help but smile. "It's a common question. Who is the commander of this operation? Can you tell us in detail about his command style and ability? And what do most soldiers think of him?"

When the three words "chief commander" were mentioned, the guards being interviewed became even more excited.

He grabbed the microphone and said, "The commander-in-chief! That's Young Master Xu... Oh no, I mean Colonel Xu Qingran. Our original commander was Lieutenant General Chen, but he accidentally injured his spirit pool while conducting the Overlord's source crystal detection in order to catch up with the cleanup progress. He is now recuperating in the hospital."

At this moment, the audience in front of the TV were stunned.

The i-crazy people who were fighting the haters online slowly put down their tools and looked at the TV that their family members were watching with astonishment.

The guard in the interview smiled and praised Xu Qingran from head to toe.

He talked about how calm and steady he was in handling matters, how clear and accurate his judgment and control of the situation was, how the source crystal detection he shared was higher definition than high definition, and how powerful his perception of source crystals was.

Anyway, the way he played the guitar was completely different from his attitude when they first met such a young conductor.

After coming back from this trip, I have completely become Xu Qingran's little fanboy.

During the interview, Xu Qingran, who had just gotten off the spaceship, happened to pass by in the distance.

The photographer turned the camera and zoomed in on the scene.

He was wearing a neat and handsome military uniform, looking heroic.

There were also several veteran soldiers and generals of considerable status who were on the mission with him this time. They were talking to him in a buzz, probably discussing with him the techniques and experiences on how to defeat the devil.

Everyone was in an uproar.

What the hell

The little madman turned out to be the main commander of this Red City West District operation!

He also successfully and beautifully finished this cleaning task that had lasted for several years! The elite team leader, who was known for his strictness, praised him to the skies!

Not long after, the Silver Dragon Military released the news in various places on the Internet and reposted related news.

At the same time, Muyesha, the second princess of the Kaian Empire, also posted a video on her account, plus a group photo.

The video showed her dressed the same way she did when she had dinner with Xu Qingran and Mo Chengfei. She put her hands on her hips and flicked her hair, showing netizens her perfect catwalk. She didn't say a word until the end of the video.

But it seems like everything has been said.

Sharp-eyed netizens soon discovered that her dress was highly similar to the rich woman Xu Qingran was rumored to be dating recently.

Let’s look at another photo. It was taken when she, Xu Qingran and Mo Chengfei were having dinner in a restaurant.

Suddenly, the truth came to light.

It's no wonder that netizens didn't recognize her at the first sight. This second princess who has been hiding in the laboratory for many years has rarely appeared in the public eye in recent years. And every time she appears, she is dressed in a different style, which is very changeable.

Who would have thought that the person in the photo was her!

Who would have thought that Xu Qingran was actually related to her!

Mo Chengfei's situation is even more amazing.

I didn't respond, didn't say a word, but the Mo Group directly tagged the account that first spread the rumor and sent them a lawyer's letter. The tone was particularly serious, saying that their boss Mo would not accept any form of apology and would insist on suing them to the end, and make them pay the due price and punishment for their improper behavior.

Qi Duo, the most prestigious member of the Qi family, took the time to forward the Mo Group's announcement, adding a comment: "Oh, is there anyone who doesn't know that Mr. Mo and our Qi family are old friends? Every year he sends us youngsters a lot of gifts and treats us to big meals~"

The i-crazy people immediately held their heads high and behaved themselves as men.

[Sure enough, I knew that Master would never let us fans down (relieved).]

[I don't understand. Heizi gets slapped in the face every year but still gets criticized every year. Isn't he a masochist in another sense? Like Ming Hai? ]

[This is so exciting! Mr. Mo is so powerful that he filed a lawsuit directly! The lawyer team of the Mo Group is the best in the whole empire, right? Will this severely punish the black man? ]

[Fans are really happy that Xiao Fengzi has made it, but when will you start live streaming? ! I have so much money and have no place to spend it, do you understand? ]

[The guy showing off his wealth upstairs should be dragged out and beheaded!!]

On the same afternoon, a personal interview with Xu Qingran was circulated on the Internet.

The reporter finally caught him and asked him a few simple questions.

They included: "May I ask what Colonel Xu thinks of the result of Silver Dragon's successful recapture of Red City West District 7?"

Xu Qingran raised his eyes and looked at the camera.

He chuckled and said, "With me here, isn't it natural that the mission will succeed?"

Before leaving, he took the initiative to add to the camera: "Oh, I almost forgot to tell you."

"I am now a 3S-level psychic."

3S-class D-type!!

This endurance is probably unmatched in the entire empire! Not only can it be resupplied, but it also breaks the principle that the D-type's attack power is generally two levels weaker than its real class. It's really good!

As soon as this news came out, it is easy to imagine that the Internet will be flooded with interjections.

Far away in the Tianqin Department, Xie Nanjun saw Xu Qingran's interview and couldn't help but say, "Damn."

"I can't stand it anymore. How come Xu Qingran is even more pretentious than me?"

Several guards in the rest area couldn't help laughing when they heard what he said.

Only Shen Tingyu was leaning alone in the corner, scrolling through his phone, watching the interview video of just a few dozen seconds over and over again.

Finally, click Save.

I thought to myself, his boyfriend is so handsome.

When the news that Xu Qingran had successfully completed the mission was passed back to Silver Dragon Headquarters, Mu Ziyu was meeting with the remaining senior military officers in the conference room.

It mainly talks about the plan to transport supplies to Upper Nanzhou.

Even his words imply the intention to re-emphasize the Tianlong galaxy.

Even though Shangnanzhou is now under the management of Xu Qingran, who is the most favored by everyone, everyone still hesitated for a while when they heard his proposal.

A senior veteran said: "Xu Qingran is indeed very good, but he has just arrived in Tianlong, and the rebels in Shangnanzhou have not even been completely subdued. Isn't it too early to bet on him just based on his small achievements in the early stage?"

Someone else said, "That's right. Even if he can conquer Shangnanzhou, there are still three habitable planets in Tianlong, excluding those that have been completely occupied by the demons. Xu Qingran is indeed good at fighting, but with his current age and qualifications, he lacks experience. Can he properly manage the entire Taiyue Star, or even the Tianlong system, in the future?"

Mu Ziyu pursed his lips, unable to believe that he was about to speak for Xu Qingran.

The door of the conference room was suddenly pushed open from the outside.

Mu Yesa, wearing a white robe, gorgeous clothes and sunglasses on her face, walked in from outside.

When Mu Ziyu saw her, he was shocked and hesitated to speak.

Mu Yesha now has enough say in the camp’s military department. She walked to Mu Ziyu’s side, pulled out a chair, and sat down elegantly with her legs crossed.

Mu Ziyu hadn't seen the news online yet and thought she was here to contradict him again.

I was prepared to have a fight with her, but for the first time ever I heard her agree: "I think there's nothing wrong with what my silly brother said today."

"I support it, and I also want to expand our Silver Dragon's biological and chemical research in Tianlong."

Muyesha took off her sunglasses while speaking, her tone a little arrogant: "You old guys are too old-fashioned and conservative, too rigid in your thinking."

"If this fails, then it fails. It's not like the Silver Dragon Camp can't afford the money."

"Besides, isn't Colonel Xu only asking for the supply of military resources and weapons and vehicles? You owe Shangnanzhou so much for so many years, it's time to make up for it, right?"

"It's not easy to find someone willing to help clean up the mess you left behind. Isn't it reasonable to give something in return?"

The few people were speechless after being asked by Mu Yesha.

Someone struggled a little and said, "But Silver Dragon is indeed short of funds recently. His Highness wants to deduct some of the resources given to our various divisions and give them to Tianlong..."

Muyesha wondered, “Is there anything wrong with this?”

"When you were so busy getting resources, why didn't you think about the fact that they all came from Tianlongjun?"

"… "

Everyone was silent.

Muyesha was the person who was most opposed to the exile of the Tianlong clan back then.

However, given her identity as a girl and a Type I psychic who was not good at fighting, and at that time the country was in a fierce struggle for command, her words did not carry much weight.

Now she finally has the chance to use Xu Qingran's prestige to suppress this group of people.

Hey, that feels great.

When she was very young, she had been to the Tianlong system.

At that time, the Silver Star was still there and had not yet been invaded and destroyed by the demons.

The old Silver Dragon City was the most lively and beautiful place she had ever seen.

The silver pterosaur sculpture located in the main city longs for the free sky.

She always wanted to restore the Tianlong system to its former prosperity.

·

Although Xu Qingran's consumption was not as great as most commanders, he went home, took a shower, and then lay in bed and slept all day. When he got up, it was dark.

Looking at my cell phone and communicator, there were several missed calls.

They were all calls from Shen Tingyu.

He washed his face and went downstairs to heat up some instant food.

When preparing dinner, he happened to see the bottle of red wine that Mo Chengfei gave him. Thinking that he was in a good mood these days, he took it out and drank it together. The taste was quite special, with the taste of honey and various spices, sweet with a bit of mineral astringency.

To be honest, it was the first time for Xu Qingran to drink something so high-end.

He had never had the chance to taste this wine in his previous life, so he didn't know how to evaluate whether it was good or not. Anyway, it tasted quite good to him, so he classified it as delicious.

Xu Qingran's body isn't very good at drinking.

It was just a little red wine, but after a few glasses my head started to feel a little dizzy.

He squinted his eyes, facing the empty mansion, and suddenly thought of Shen Tingyu again.

I took out my phone and sent him a message, "What are you doing?"

Shen Tingyu: "I just finished my meal and was about to continue processing official documents."

"you're awake?"

Xu Qingran laughed.

The bad guy actually knew that he didn’t return the call because he was sleeping, not running away with someone else.

He tilted his head and thought for a moment, then picked up his phone, took a selfie of himself holding a glass of wine, and sent it.

There was silence on the other side for half a minute.

Then he replied: “?”

Before Xu Qingran sent out any new message, a video call invitation came.

Xu Qingran answered the call with his eyes squinting.

Shen Tingyu seemed to be talking to him on the phone using his tablet. He sat in the chair behind his desk, staring at him calmly.

After a while, he asked in a deep voice, "Have you been drinking?"

"Yeah." Xu Qingran responded, "Mo Chengfei gave it to me that day."

"If you haven't tried it, give it a try. It's pretty good. I'll save some for you to try when you come back."

Xu Qingran saw his current appearance from the small frame in the video call.

Only then did I realize that this body's alcohol tolerance was really not good, and its cheeks and eyes were already stained with a layer of red.

Well, she looks like a vixen ready to seduce someone.

He boldly evaluated himself in this way.

Shen Tingyu on the other end of the call paused, and just as he was about to speak, he saw Xu Qingran, who was alone at home, suddenly put down the wine glass in his hand.

Then, with a half-smile in front of the camera, he suddenly began to pull open the top button of his shirt.

Shen Tingyu: “… ?”

The general was stunned.

Xu Qingran ignored him and unbuttoned a few more buttons.

The slow movements of one hand due to drunkenness wrinkled his neatly-tied shirt, making him look even more indescribable.

He finally stopped until the beautiful and attractive collarbone and part of the chest were exposed.

Perhaps it was because of the alcohol that made the skin there slightly red.

Xu Qingran admired Shen Tingyu's gradually darkening eyes, then he bent his legs on the sofa, propped his chin with one hand and asked him: "Shen Tingyu, do I look good?"

In the silence, Shen Tingyu's Adam's apple moved slightly.

When he spoke again, his voice was a little hoarse: "It looks good."

Xu Qingran laughed a few times.

There was a hint of confusion in the pair of peach blossom eyes, which was like a silent invitation.

After a while, he spoke slowly: "Then just watch."

"Anyway, you are a dog man who is determined to become a monk. I can't touch you."

After saying these two sentences with a bit of contempt in his eyes, Xu Qingran, who had deliberately seduced Shen Tingyu, ruthlessly hung up the video call.

Shen Tingyu was silent for a long time, facing the black screen.

In the end, I couldn't help but laugh at him again.

From then on, there was one more item in the memo.

—Xu Qingran must not be allowed to drink.

He has a low alcohol tolerance and can go crazy when he's drunk.

That would be fine, but he is not satisfied with going crazy himself and has to drive others crazy as well.

Shen Tingyu pinched his brows and sighed softly.

How can I concentrate on my work tonight

When Xu Qingran was having his drunken rage on Shen Tingyu, far away in the North City of Shangnanzhou, people were also experiencing unrest.

The military headquarters in the north city.

Cars after cars loaded with guards slowly drove back from outside. The guards in the cars looked quite disheveled, with fatigue and tiredness unconcealed on their faces. It was obvious that they had just returned from a mission.

There are also vehicles specifically designed to transport the wounded, driving at the front of the convoy. As soon as they arrive at the base, someone immediately carries the injured in the vehicles into the medical center.

The last to come in were a few off-road vehicles.

A tall, muscular, and fierce-looking middle-aged man got out of one of the cars.

He had a black wolf head pendant around his neck. When he got out of the car, a black and gray wolfhound jumped out from the trunk.

Looking closely, there are a few other military personnel here who are like him, accompanied by mighty wolfhounds.

As soon as he closed the car door, someone from the bus ran up to him.

With a worried look on his face, he said, "Lieutenant Colonel, at the end of this mission, we lost a batch of guns and abandoned two severely damaged armored vehicles."

"There is no more weapon reserves in the camp, and what everyone has now are the last ones. If this continues, we may not be able to withstand the offensive of the North City Demon Group in the later stage."

"Now, what should we do?"
