Even though Qiu Yiming was adept at acting, his expression changed upon hearing these words. When he discovered that Fang Yuxin had left the Market Base with Bai Ye, he personally looked into the matter. To his surprise, he found that before Fang Yuxin left, Zhou Fanghua had sought her out!
When Zhou Fanghua went to the Fang Family at that ti, things turned unpleasant, and she was not invited in; their conversation happened right at the door. People lived all around, and even though Zhou Fanghua deliberately lowered her voice, what she said was overheard by the neighbors, compounded by her extrely arrogant attitude, which was deeply disdainful to them.
Given the statuses of both parties, quite a few people paid attention to the matter at the ti. When Qiu Yiming investigated, he easily got to the bottom of it, and as he was investigating, the news spread rapidly throughout the Market Base, causing a huge stir. Many people thought Zhou Fanghua’s attitude was so arrogant that it drove the Fang Family away!
Back then, the Base was surrounded by countless zombies, going out was basically seeking death! So, in the eyes of most people in the Base, the departure of the Fang Family was akin to signing a death warrant. Zhou Fanghua’s action was indeed pushing people to their doom!
The Qiu Family was already in a very passive position, with lesser power than the other two generals. After this news broke out, their reputation suffered even greater damage. He and Qiu Hongsheng had to exert great effort to suppress the matter!
Moreover, due to Fang Yuxin’s departure, he harbored resentnt towards Zhou Fanghua and Qiu Hongsheng, which led him to beco sowhat dispirited, to the point where he forgot even to plot against Fang ngyao, finding her utterly repulsive!
Now that Fang Yuxin brought up the incident again, how could his mood possibly improve? If Qiu Yiming didn’t still have feelings for Fang Yuxin, and didn’t greatly admire her current abilities, he would have been unable to hold back his anger towards her!
Though he managed to suppress his surging anger, his face turned quite ugly. It took him a while to find his voice again, and he said to Fang Yuxin, "Xinxin, I’m currently at Hope Base, I’ll co to see you right away."
Fang Yuxin heard him change the topic directly and knew he must be quite angry. Yet, seeing Qiu Yiming’s grim expression, Fang Yuxin felt a rare sense of pleasure, and said, "I never expected you to co. I heard that you were at Beishi Base and took over the White Wolf rcenary Corps, strengthening it, even annexing quite a bit of power from the Qiankun rcenary Group. Impressive. However, with Chu Li taking over the Qiankun rcenary Group, you must be busy lately, right? How co you have ti to personally co over?"
Qiu Yiming was surprised that Fang Yuxin would voice this directly. He knew that with Fang Yuxin’s intelligence, she must have guessed he ca for her. He worried that Fang Yuxin was too smart and might figure out his real purpose for coming, so he decided to play the emotional card from the start to divert her attention.
However, Fang Yuxin was clearly not fooled. Recalling Fang Yuxin’s earlier comnt that he was not like before made his face suddenly feel hot! Fang Yuxin deliberately said that, obviously mocking him for playing the emotional card!
Qiu Yiming felt uneasy inside. His relationship with Fang Yuxin had been very close, and he had never wanted to hurt her; even when the Fang Family refused to agree to a wedding, he was willing to wait and never used feelings to manipulate her!
But now, he used it directly, without hesitation! What happened to him!
Qiu Yiming suddenly felt rather embarrassed, and a pang of heartache overwheld him. He took a deep breath, emphasized again, "I’ll co to see you soon," then cut off the call.
Once the call ended, Fang Yuxin’s face disappeared from the screen. Qiu Yiming stared at the blank screen but felt inexplicably relieved. He realized he was already afraid to face Fang Yuxin!
What on earth was happening! He ca this ti with the intention to use the opportunity to reconnect with Fang Yuxin, reconcile, and bring her back to Beishi Base with him. Yet, after just a few brief exchanges, why had things turned out this way?
anwhile, Bai Ye directly sent Bai Zhengli a rather rude ssage—Qiu Yiming, that bastard, is at the Hope Base and wants to take your daughter-in-law away, do sothing about it!
Bai Zhengli was furious upon seeing the ssage, and he almost wanted to beat his brat son Bai Ye to a pulp imdiately! However, what really angered him was Qiu Yiming’s actions, daring to eye his daughter-in-law; he must have a death wish!
Squinting dangerously at the ssage content, Bai Zhengli swiftly tapped on the keyboard, issuing orders one after another. (To be continued.
