Apocalypse: After Being Reborn, I Stocked Up on All Supplies Chapter 435: 431: Personal Compensation
Chapter 435: Chapter 431: Personal Compensation
Jiang Yan was taken aback, a little in disbelief, “Leader Mo is back too—”
Li Haoyang: “Yes.”
Song Qian, standing next to Li Haoyang, looked at Jiang Yan’s expression and couldn’t help but laugh, “When I heard the news, I was just as shocked as you.”
Jiang Yan: “…”
“The news hasn’t been officially released yet. Only a few people at the base know,” Li Haoyang said, lowering his voice, “He just finished eting with Vice Leader Qin, discussing matters of the base during this period. Now he’s in a eting with Dr. Song’s research team, and he said he’ll see you privately after the eting.”
Mo Jingsheng’s schedule was not supposed to be disclosed according to regulations.
However, due to Jiang Yan’s special status, Li Haoyang chose not to hide it from her.
Jiang Yan responded with an “Oh,” “So should I go with you now?”
“Yes, we need Miss Jiang to co alone,” Li Haoyang said, glancing at Song Qian by his side, “We promise, what happened in the AS area last ti won’t happen again.”
Jiang Yan was startled, “You all know about it?”
“Yes.” Li Haoyang nodded sowhat awkwardly, “So this ti I called Brother Song to co with , just in case—”
Jiang Yan couldn’t help but smile, “Last ti I was inford by a stranger warrior, I do trust you this ti.”
Li Haoyang felt even more embarrassed, “Thank you.”
“Shall we set off now?” He glanced at Zhou Haoyue inside the room.
“Okay.” Jiang Yan went inside and gently instructed Zhou Haoyue, “Haoyue, I need to go out for a while, would you head ho first?”
Zhou Haoyue nodded obediently, “Okay, Aunt Jiang.”
Hearing this, Song Qian half-joked, half-seriously said, “Little Haoyue, why haven’t you changed what you call her yet? Jiang Yan and Ye Qing are not that far apart in age, why do you call Ye Qing brother and Jiang Yan auntie, making her sound old.”
Zhou Haoyue both respected and feared warriors in combat uniforms.
Though she was familiar with Song Qian, being suddenly criticized by his stern expression made her little head droop in fear.
“Brother Song, you scared the child.” Jiang Yan pretended to scold Song Qian and reached out to rub Zhou Haoyue’s head, softly saying, “It’s just a na, Haoyue can call whatever she likes.”
Zhou Haoyue slowly lifted her head, her lips trembling slightly, then she said, “Jiang—sister, I want to call you auntie, not to make you sound old, it’s because—”
Her eyes turned red, and tears quickly welled up.
Jiang Yan was startled, quickly grabbing a tissue to wipe her tears.
Outside, Song Qian furrowed his brow, not expecting his casual remark to make the child cry.
He rembered this Zhou Haoyue, though young, was a little girl with great endurance.
“Why is that?” Jiang Yan asked concernedly after wiping her tears.
Zhou Haoyue sniffed, her voice timid, “Because—” Aunt sounds closest to mom…..
She shook her head, still not daring to say it, “It’s nothing, Jiang sister, you go ahead, I’ll head ho first.”
With that, she picked up her storybook, wiped away her tears, and went next door.
Su Dai opened the door and was stunned to see Zhou Haoyue with red eyes.
When she noticed Li Haoyang and Song Qian at the door of Jiang Yan’s place, she was startled again, “Li Haoyang, you—”
“Yes. Sister Dai, we’re back.” Li Haoyang nodded slightly to Su Dai, “We’re in a bit of a rush, we’ll visit you another ti.”
Su Dai instantly understood, “You go ahead then, co over for dinner another ti.”
She knew Li Haoyang must have been ordered to find Jiang Yan.
Though there was the lesson from last ti’s incident, with Song Qian around, she felt a lot more at ease.
As usual, Jiang Yan put on her black backpack and walked briskly with the two towards the leader’s office area of the base.
Since Li Haoyang and Song Qian were on regular duty hours, they spoke noticeably less.
Li Haoyang didn’t choose to talk about their activities during this ti, and Jiang Yan didn’t ask either.
After all, if she really wanted to inquire, perhaps it might be more direct to ask Mo Jingsheng instead.
The leader’s office area was a newly designated area, with ard warriors on duty standing outside.
It was unclear if it was because of the AS area incident or because Mo Jingsheng had returned, but Jiang Yan noticeably felt a more oppressive atmosphere as she walked through.
Previously, when she ca with Song Haitao to see Qin Zepeng, she hadn’t felt this way.
Her timing was just right as she saw the backs of Song Haitao and others leaving from afar.
Whether it was due to excessive overti since returning to the base or not, she felt that Dr. Song and the others seed to have aged quite a bit during this ti.
At the entrance of the office area, Song Qian halted, “Jiang Yan, I won’t go in, I’ll wait for you outside.”
“Alright.” Jiang Yan followed Li Haoyang into the maze-like office area.
After winding through corridors for about half a minute, they stopped at the door of a room.
“Miss Jiang, please wait a mont.” Li Haoyang stepped forward and knocked on the door, “Leader, Miss Jiang is here.”
There was no response from inside.
Just as Li Haoyang was considering knocking again, assuming Mo Jingsheng hadn’t heard, the door creaked open from inside.
Mo Jingsheng, standing tall and handso in his straight military uniform, appeared before them.
He looked sowhat tired but exuded a powerful aura.
Seeing Jiang Yan, Mo Jingsheng’s icy serious face softened, a trace of a smile on his lips, “Jiang Yan, long ti no see.”
“Leader!” Li Haoyang imdiately stood upright and saluted.
“Leader Mo, long ti no see.” Jiang Yan politely smiled, subtly observing Mo Jingsheng from head to toe.
Inside the room, Jiang Yan sat down by the sofa.
Mo Jingsheng poured her a glass of water, sat down opposite her with a stride of his long legs.
He sat straight, looking at Jiang Yan with interest, “So, hasn’t seen for a while, you distrust my identity?”
Previously, Jiang Yan had told him about the Fla Base and Dr. Chu Hui’s body getting a new chip.
“No, it’s just a bit of a professional habit.” Jiang Yan couldn’t help but smile awkwardly, realizing her investigative behavior had been seen through.
However, noticing the small new scar on the right side of his jaw, she was puzzled, “Leader Mo, were you injured?”
Mo Jingsheng nodded, “Wounded when I left the base last ti, it’s not serious.”
Jiang Yan responded with an “Oh,” hesitating, “Leader Mo, during this period you—”
“Went sowhere urgent, didn’t have ti to inform you.” Mo Jingsheng said, taking out a black embossed envelope and handing it to her.
“Song Dr. and Qin Zepeng have told about what happened during this ti. I’m sorry, I promised during our collaboration to ensure your safety.”
“It’s just that I didn’t expect, in the end, not only did you end up in danger, but you also were the one to save everything.”
“So, consider this as a personal form of compensation from ,” Mo Jingsheng said, pointing to the black envelope with his finger:
“Open it?”
