Luo Ning changed the subject.

"What did you call me here for? Fu Xing and the others haven't returned yet?"

She thought that Mr. Fu had contacted her about a mission.

But she asked Fu Xing, and he said they wouldn't be back for another two days.

"If you're going home for dinner tonight, where are you going if you don't go inside when you get to your doorstep?"

Old Fu glared at him, then looked at Xiao Jie beside him.

"Aren't you going to tell me about what's going on between the two of you? Aren't you going to introduce him to me?"

Although he had long known that the two had a special relationship, Old Fu was still worried that the young man would not treat his granddaughter well.

He had never raised a girl before, and asked the other people at the base.

They say that young girls in love are prone to losing their rationality.

As an elder, he should give the man a proper talking-to.

Thinking that his beloved granddaughter was only twenty years old, Old Fu glared at Xiao Jie.

That young punk, he's just trying to fool his precious granddaughter.

Xiao Jie didn't understand why he was glaring at him.

He didn't provoke him.

But looking at the person beside him, he held her hand tightly.

He can be gentle to the whole world as long as she is by his side.

I won't argue with him.

The older generation probably envied him for being able to have a sweet romance.

Luo Ning didn't care what the two of them imagined.

She nodded obediently, "Okay, no problem."

"Then wait for me to pack up and I'll leave."

Old Fu got up and stretched his back; it was long past his workday.

He just had a habit of working overtime every day to handle urgent matters.

Xiao Jie stepped forward to help him tidy up, but Luo Ning was oblivious to his tact.

Even if she had it, she wouldn't move; Xiao Jie has spoiled her so much that she's become increasingly lazy.

They all have everything handed to them, from being waited on hand and foot.

Once a person starts to slack off, they'll stay slack off forever.

Old Fu gave Xiao Jie a light snort, showing he still had some sense.

He put his hands behind his back and let Xiao Jie take care of it.

Xiao Jie quickly washed the teacup he had finished drinking from on his table, put the pen back in its place, and closed the various open documents with sticky notes.

He was very good at doing these trivial tasks.

It's obvious that this is something they do regularly; they can see the big picture from small details.

Old Fu knew who usually cleaned up the house where the two lived.

"Let's go."

He waved to Luo Ning, who walked to his side, with Xiao Jie following behind.

As the three of them went out, they ran into the base's management team, who were also leaving get off work late.

"Base Commander."

Everyone saluted Mr. Fu.

He pulled Luo Ning to the front, "I'm off work now. Let me introduce you all, this is my granddaughter."

Although Luo Ning isn't often at the base, everyone there knows her.

They also knew that she was now the base commander's granddaughter, which the base commander had already announced extensively upon his return.

But today marks their official meeting.

They used to be busy, and Luo Ning wasn't often at the base.

Even if they know about this person, it won't have much impact on the real person.

Looking at it now...

The person was very small, like their granddaughter who was in college before the apocalypse.

Yet this very person brought most of the supplies to the Xuanwu base, and none of the team members who went out on the mission together were injured.

He could even beat Ji Zhoubai, the genius healer in their base. Although that kid mainly focused on healing, his ability level was there, and he could suppress ordinary ability users with his ability level.

Not to mention her unfathomable strength and that lush green terrace.

Every time they come to the base, even if they don't get to eat the fruits and vegetables there, just looking at them makes their mouths water.

But she also held two contracts with the base tightly in her hands, and she wasn't polite when she asked for weapons last time.

They used to treat her with respect, but now she is the base commander's granddaughter.

"Now that Xiao Luo is here, he should come to the base often, just like he does now."

"Yes, our base is developing very well now, no worse than private bases outside."

They had heard that she opened a shop at the Helin base.

Although they also opened a branch at their base, the branch cannot compare with the headquarters.

Most people just sighed, but a small number of people couldn't help but blame Mr. Fu.

After all this time, I still haven't been able to convince her to join the Xuanwu Base.

If she is from the Xuanwu Base, then those supplies belong to the base.

Such a person should contribute to the country and the people; how can they be so selfish and only care about themselves?

If she were an employee of the base, then those two contracts would be unnecessary, and she would have to pay rent if she wanted the house the base gave her.

They had heard that her family supermarket at the Xuanwu base was making a lot of crystal cores every day.

Old Fu could tell what each of them was thinking at a glance, so he pulled Luo Ning behind him, his intention to protect her was particularly obvious.

At Fu Lao's signal, those who had been harboring ulterior motives immediately realized what was going on and resumed their normal expressions.

If this were before the apocalypse, they wouldn't be so prone to showing their emotions.

But this apocalypse is just too torturous, with high temperatures, lack of water, and a shortage of green fruits and vegetables.

Even for them, water and food are rationed every day.

Now, a person carrying supplies appears, and everyone wishes they were that person.

Xiao Jie met the gazes of those with unpleasant expressions with a fierce look.

It seemed that if they showed any more disrespect to Luo Ning, he would make them pay.

Luo Ning grabbed his hand and shook it.

Old Fu gave the group a warning look, then led Luo Ning out.

"Old Xu, you went too far just now."

The remaining people looked at one of them, who was the head of the base's supplies department.

He was in charge of all the supplies at the base, and he himself was reluctant to eat or wear anything extravagant.

He wanted to grab any usable supplies for himself; he had long coveted Luoning's supplies.

"What did I do wrong? I was just thinking about the base. Do you know how many people starved or died of heatstroke at the base yesterday?"

Their supplies were distributed in fixed quantities per person, but with such a large number of people, there were always areas that couldn't be properly supervised.

The supplies could only barely keep them alive; they couldn't feed everyone.

Some people would give all the food and water to one person, and over time, it would be common for them to starve or die of thirst.

There are also many people suffering from heatstroke, leukemia due to vitamin deficiency, and osteoporosis.

He needs supplies, supplies, he needs all kinds of supplies now.

Old Fu led Luo Ning outside and sighed.

"Girl, don't blame him. He was forced into it."

Luo Ning hummed in agreement. She had seen this situation far too often, and the man's attitude had no effect on her whatsoever.

"It's nothing, I didn't take it to heart."

Luo Ning now has a lot of supplies, and the various grains in the expanded space are growing very quickly.

Not counting what she collected before the apocalypse, she can now harvest a batch of grains and vegetables every ten days.

Recently, I've been consuming a lot of 123 crystal cores, so the apocalypse system has been upgraded once, and the space has expanded a hundredfold.

Her farm covers one million square meters, or about 1,500 acres, and has no shortage of supplies.

But she didn't tell Mr. Fu about this.

"I have some vitamins that I can give to you for free if the base needs them. If you need water, you can also get several thousand tons from me."

This was the biggest thing she could offer for free out of respect for Old Master Fu.
