"Good morning, Captain Xing, Captain Yun!"
She Jiao realized her snigger was too obvious, so she acted normal and said hello. Then she stroked Chenchen's head with a gentle smile. "Good morning, Chenchen."
"Good morning, Miss She! Miss Jiang!"
Everything seemed normal to Chenchen. He bowed and said hello. She Jiao kept her smile, Miss Jiang, however, suddenly took out her phone and randomly took pictures of the three of them after saying good morning back. Both Yun Che and Xing Feng were confused, the corner of their mouths kept twitching.
What they didn't know was, Miss Jiang almost uploaded the pictures that she took in the group.
Miss Jiang: [Image] [Image] [Image]… Girls, come on, take a look at this cute family of three.
Yang Hui: Awww, so sweet. Captain Xing and Captain Xing make the perfect match.
Zhao Yuhan: Here they are, showing off their love, but I dig it.
Zhang Min: Heehee, are they at the kindergarten? I'll be right there.
Sun Miao: Chill, Zhang Min and take more photos. Captain Xing and Captain Yun are so pretty.
Li Ping: Ooh, handsome. Lick, lick.
Zhou Yu: Screen-licking.
Wu Shiyu: Lick, lick, lick.
Zhao Yun: Keep the formation. Screen-licking.
It went on and on.
The pictures brought the quiet group to life. At the entrance of the kindergarten, Xing Feng and Yun Che had no idea that the Yaoi fangirls had been fantasizing about them and they didn't enjoy being stared by Miss Jiang like that at all. Yun Che's smile came back on to his face after he secretly took several deep breaths.
"Miss She, please take care of Chenchen, I'll…"
"Hey, Captain Xing, Captain Yun! What a coincidence, you're here to drop Chenchen off at school, huh?"
The loud greeting nearly scared Yun Che half to death. His slim, flexible body became as stiff as a rock almost immediately. Before he could react, Zhang Min had already shown up in front of them with her son and some other young girls from Loser and their kids. As soon as they showed up, they lay their fiery eyes on the two men. Xing Feng and Yun Che felt like those eyes were shooting piercing lasers.
"A-a coincidence, indeed."
The corner of Yun Che's mouth twitched like crazy. He swiftly picked Chenchen up and shoved him into She Jiao's hands. "Um, Miss She, please take care of Chenchen. Captain Xing and I are busy, see youuu."
When Yun Che made his move, Xing Feng took out a motorcycle and sat on it. Before Yun Che finished, the motorcycle sped out of the kindergarten. They tacitly and seamlessly executed every move. This was probably how they escaped from a high-level zombie.
"Oh, they're gone?"
Zhang Min stared off into the direction where the motorcycle went in disappointment. She Jiao gave her a glance. "They're gone because they are scared of you." She thought.
"What's with them?"
Asked Chenchen when his eyes twinkled. He didn't understand why his uncle just left without saying goodbye to him.
"They have stuff to do. Alright, why don't you go inside now?"
Poor boy!
She Jiao put him down and gently asked him to go inside first. Chenchen wasn't bothered, he just nodded and went to take Lei Peng's hand. "Lei Peng, let's go inside."
"Sure."
Lei Peng, who was a few years older than Chenchen, was fond of this boy. He took Chenchen's hand and called other kids from Loser. Hand in hand, the kids went into the kindergarten whereas their parents didn't. They all stood at the gate, gossiping about Xing Feng and Yun Che in excitement.
"Phew, that was crazy. Um, Xing, can you turn off the WiFi in Chaoyang?"
Now that they managed to escape from the Yaoi fangirls, Yun Che dramatically gave off a sigh when he hugged Xing Feng from behind on the motorcycle. Speaking of the Internet, he was fuming because it was Yun Che who suggested public WiFi inside Chaoyang Community. Now that he thought about it, he realized it had backfired on him. If there was no Internet, the Yaoi toxin would have spread so fast. At the moment, every woman in Chaoyang seemed a fujoshi.
"Fine by me if you can cope with their protest."
As the motorcycle sped on the streets, Xing Feng gave a helpless reply. He wouldn't dare to turn off the WiFi because there were quite a lot of women in Chaoyang.
"Uh…"
Yun Che shuddered after he pictured it and immediately got the thought off his mind.
Southwest Military Headquarters
"For real?"
The base was like a giant machine that kept running. Every 8: 30 am, the representatives of three armies and the government would gather together to sum yesterday up and make plans for the day. When everybody was in the room, Mo Wenyang announced that Xing Feng and Yun Che were coming over later. Wei Kan, Wang Wei and Wan Guoqiang put on happy faces because they'd been wanting to see them. A part of the vegetables from the farmlands of Joy and Loser had been turned in to the military. Not only they managed to grow vegetables, but the quality of the vegetables was also better than those of others, you couldn't even see a pest hole on the leaves. One didn't need to be very clever to know that Xing Feng and Yun Che had helped them. For the future of the base, Wei, Wang and Wan had humbly visited them multiple times but "They're busy" was the reply they got every time. Although Yun Che took his brother to the farmlands, they were got there, the Yun Brothers were gone. That was why they still hadn't seen them until this day.
"That's not right. Why do they show up now all of a sudden?"
But after the initial joy, Wan Guoqiang got suspicious. Those two guys would always do something for a reason, past experiences told them that Xing Feng and Yun Che were about to give them a hard time again.
After Wan raised the question, Wang Wei and Wei Kan looked at Mo Wenyang, who lolled in the chair. "I don't know, even I couldn't get in touch with Xing Feng lately, you know this. No one knows what they got up their sleeves."
Mo Wenyang wasn't bullshitting them. He couldn't get in touch Xing Feng, although he did know what they had been doing.
"So they do have something up their sleeves, huh?"
Wei Kan, Wang Wei, Wan Guoqiang and the representative from the government made eye contact and sighed. They both needed Xing Feng and Yun Che and wished they never existed at the same time. Take the researchers who Xing Feng kicked out of Chaoyang for example, the military initially let them stay in Section C, but everyone in Section C complained and violence ensued, those condescending researchers and their family members often got beaten. So the military had to move them to Section B, but the officers in Section B were pissed off by the researchers, and their leader, Wang Fujian, was a real pain in the ass, no wonder Xing Feng kicked them out of Chaoyang. In the end, Mo Wenyang made a wise decision by dumping them in Section E. Let them be condescending, the military didn't have time and energy for them.
"Why are you so nervous? They do everything for the good of the base. Just be open-minded, will you?"
"Well, you can be open-minded because you're one of them!" They all thought.
Mo Wenyang suddenly became their common enemy. Wang, Wei and Wan all gave him a spiteful glare. They knew that everything that Xing Feng and Yun Che did was for the good of the base but Mo Army ended up getting all the credit whereas Wang and Wei Army got nothing. To many residents in the Southwest Base, Mo Army meant the entire military department, so of course, the other two armies were upset.
*Knock knock*
After the knock, a young soldier pushed open the door and walked in. He stood attention and saluted every one of them. "Sir, Captain Xing of Chaoyang and Captain Yun of Peak are here."
"Let them in."
Here they came at last. Wei Kan waved his hand. He had a mixed feeling about this. Wang Wei was the same. The only one who had no feeling about this was Mo Wenyang, well, in fact, he was gloating. Mo Wenyang enjoyed watching the home-guarding beast torture the other two armies the most.
"Hi, everybody."
A few minutes later, the door was pushed open from outside again. Xing Feng and Yun Che walked in side by side. As soon as Yun Che saw the representatives, he waved at them and said hi with a smile. It was supposed to be a natural move, but it discomforted everybody because Yun Che had really traumatized them.
"I thought you went missing."
Mo Wenyang, the one who wasn't disturbed by their arrival, walked up to Xing Feng and beat him on the chest. But his punch retracted when it came to Yun Che. "Are you here to deliver the invitation cards?"
Their wedding wasn't much of a secret, many captains of their friend superfunction squads had received the invitation cards, but none in the military or the authority had. It was mainly because Yun Yao didn't even think of them but when she heard Xing Feng and Yun Che were going to the military headquarters, she asked them to deliver the invitation cards. The authorities could come if they wanted to, they'd done their part anyway.
"You must come, that's for sure."
Yun Che took out a red invitation card like he did a magic trick. The card had a simple design: square, golden-edged with the picture of Yun Che and Xing Feng in black and white suits. Inside of card was the picture of Jiang Shang, Ye Xingchen, Lu Haixuan and Chu Haoling in formal dresses and the words were written below.
"Well, well, is it specially designed? Those who got sufficient supplies do whatever they want."
Mo Wenyang opened the invitation card and made his comment. Across the entire Southwest Base, no, the entire China, Chaoyang and Peak were the only ones who had time for this.
"Thanks, I'll take it as a compliment. Do come early with your parents on October 1st."
Xing Feng sophisticatedly replied to his tease. Yun Che looked back at Wei Kan and the others with a beaming face. Not until he made sure everybody felt uncomfortable did he took out and sent the invitation cards to them through air superfunction. "You're all welcome to come to the wedding early that day!"
"It'll be held in Section C?"
Wang Guoan was the first to express his surprise after opening the invitation card. He thought it'd be held in Chaoyang Community.
"So the Base Defense will have to help us clear the street for us on that day."
Yun Che's tone didn't sound like he was asking a favor at all. When he spoke to Wan Guoqiang, his eyes seemed as if smiling. They were going to hold the wedding inside Chaoyang Community but because too many people had known of this, Ye Xingchen and the others were always teased during quests. After discussion, they decided to hold the wedding on the road from Chaoyang to Section C. Other than the parents who would drop off and pick up their kids every day, no one would really take this way. And with the wedding being held outside Chaoyang gate, no one got to sneak into the community to pry for intelligence. This was a one-stone-two-birds move.
