Retired for A Hundred Years: Re-Employment for the Apocalypse Bigshot! Chapter 307 - 302: My Wrath Is Not Something You Want to See

The Ye Family has always been in charge of the research institutes on the Hua Continent, primarily focusing on biological science research, including fields like dicine, superpowers, and flora and fauna in the Pollution Zone.

They have been devoted to researching thods for ordinary people to beco superpower users and don’t care much about power within the Huazhou Alliance. As a result, apart from the departnts related to the research institute, there are very few Ye Family mbers in other departnts.

Ye Xiangying ended up in the Ministry of Foreign Affairs because she really had no talent for scientific research, but she is still in charge of the international dical sector.

The reason she is leading a team to et Joe Lane this ti is still because she once served as the Huazhou ambassador in California for several years and is acquainted with the Lane family.

Ji Ning left the banquet hall and saw a mber of the Blue Team standing at her original spot, walking straight over, and the Blue Team mber then left.

"Leader, there’s no movent on Ji Hong’s side," Xiao Shun reported in a low voice.

Ji Ning nodded slightly, her spiritual power once again probing the room where Ji Hong was located.

She was lying on the bed, staring at the ceiling in a daze, seemingly deep in thought.

But the superpower from her fingertips was attacking the suppression ring on her wrist.

After another dozen minutes, the voice of the Blue Team Leader assigning tasks ca into Ji Ning’s ear.

"Thirty-one, thirty-two, you’re responsible for protecting Minister Fu."

Soon, the doors to the banquet hall they were guarding were opened from the inside.

Ji Ning and Xiao Shun, like other Blue Team mbers, quickly stepped behind the person they were to protect.

Fu Linyang seed approachable, smiling kindly at them when he saw them.

He had a good relationship with Ye Xiangying, chatting all the way until they parted in the elevator.

Once no one else was in the elevator, Fu Linyang loosened his tie a bit, turned his head towards Ji Ning and Xiao Shun and said, "I don’t have many requests, can you help get a cup of hand-brewed coffee from the kitchen later?"

Saying this, he shifted his gaze to Xiao Shun.

Xiao Shun looked at Ji Ning, and seeing her slight nod, replied, "Sure."

When getting off the elevator, Xiao Shun didn’t get off but pressed the button for the ninth floor again.

Fu Linyang swiped his room card to open his room and invited Ji Ning in.

His room was a standard one, with a large bed from which you could see the ocean through the window.

Fu Linyang, being from a military base, kept his room clean and tidy, with everything neatly arranged.

The white sheets on the bed were smooth without a wrinkle, the white blanket folded into a square, and the pillow neatly placed at the head of the bed, as if no one had slept there.

Fu Linyang invited Ji Ning to sit on the sofa, then moved a wooden chair in the room and sat down.

"It’s just the two of us here; you can take off your mask."

Ji Ning looked at him for a mont, then reached her fingers to the back of her head, pressing the tal clasp on the mask, and removed the silver mask.

Because the mask was tightly fitted, there were a few red marks on Ji Ning’s fair face.

Fu Linyang’s pupils contracted slightly, then he smiled and said, "Actually, I don’t really like these masks. It’s like they create a barrier between people."

Ji Ning’s gaze was calm and undisturbed as she seed to wait for him to continue.

Fu Linyang’s smile gradually beca a bit unnatural, as he turned his gaze to the mirror on the wall, sighing sowhat helplessly, "Alright, I’ll get straight to the point. Would you be willing to be employed by the Fu Family?"

"..."

"Sigh... I understand. What about the other two families?" Fu Linyang looked at her through the mirror.

Ji Ning looked at him for a mont and uttered two words: "No way."

Fu Linyang seed to breathe a sigh of relief, jokingly saying, "You must always keep that thought. Otherwise, you certainly wouldn’t want to witness the anger of our three families."

"Neither would you want to see my anger!"

Fu Linyang was taken aback for a mont, then laughed again, turning around to give Ji Ning a thumbs up.

Seeing him laughing heartily, Ji Ning suddenly asked, "Are you very nervous?"

Fu Linyang’s smile froze again, then he sat on the chair next to Ji Ning, but he could hear Ji Ning’s assertive voice.

"You were very nervous when you saw for the first ti on the ship. Although you tried to hide it, your breathing frequency was off, and there was a slight fluctuation in the superpower waves from your body. This is not the curious reaction Xiang Ying had, but rather nervousness..."

"Hahaha, I was indeed very nervous. After all, you single-handedly dealt a heavy blow to half of the Sun Family’s Superpower Team. My strength is not strong." Fu Linyang smiled again, even adding a bit of mockery to his tone.

Ji Ning calmly asked, looking at the way he was trying to conceal, "You know what the Ji Family Army infiltrating Beijing wants to find, right?"

Fu Linyang’s pupils contracted again, all his muscles tensing. Just as he was about to deny it, Ji Ning’s next words made him instantly look up at her, his eyes filled with shock as though seeing a ghost.

"I think what they want to find should have a direct relation to the Commander; it might even allow them to recognize the real identity of the Commander at a glance. During that chaotic ti, although all order was gone, to rember soone, apart from human mory, you could also use so auxiliary things, like photos... or portraits..."

As Ji Ning spoke, she observed Fu Linyang’s expression, "Photos were a luxury back then, and no one dared to take photos of her, so it could only be a portrait. If I’m not mistaken, her likeness was painted and preserved until now. So, you all know what she looks like and quickly locked onto her position when she appeared."

As Ji Ning said this, she chuckled self-deprecatingly, thinking that after 120 years, no one would know her true identity, yet she didn’t expect she’d be recorded in this way.

"Because they are unsure if she is truly the Commander or so other conspiracy at play, you are rely observing from the shadows. Until she gradually displayed her abilities prompting you to believe her identity might indeed be that of the legendary Commander. You wished to recruit but were fearful, thus resorting to so plan to swap truth with falsehood?"

Fu Linyang’s face turned pale as paper; it wasn’t clear if he was scared or sothing else.

Ji Ning smiled faintly, "Of course, you might not be aware of these plans. I suspect you’ve only seen the portrait jointly kept by the three families, and the head of the Fu Family told you I’m a descendant of that Commander, right?"

Fu Linyang wiped the sweat off his forehead, seeming to have just found his voice: "I..."

"So individuals of the Ji Family Army have a cooperative relationship with your three families and have access to the population database. So, when the Bai Family’s bodyguards took to get a residence card, they too got the news of a woman with the sa na as the Commander appearing. However, unlike you, they don’t know what the Commander looks like, so they ventured into Beijing to find a portrait. That’s why after I inford Fu Yuanxuan, over a hundred high-level superpower users from your Fu Family were deployed to guard that district."

Fu Linyang paused.

"I believe it’s not the remnant Ji Family Army they’re guarding against."

"But against ."
