In the middle of November, it was already freezing in the capital. Even the superfunction possessors couldn't stand the cold, let alone ordinary people. Under the arrangement of Wang Guoan, the Wang Family joined the election of president at a rapid speed. While others were only giving out porridge and distributing clothes to protect people from the cold, the Wang Family directly led workers to install air conditioners in every household. And for buildings where air conditioners could not be installed, they sent heaters there. Meanwhile, since electricity was not free and low-grade crystal nuclei needed to be submitted every month as the electricity fee, the Wang Family gave each household ten grade one crystal nuclei so as to solve the problem of cold form the root.
In addition, at the end of the month, the Wei Family distributed wheat in the area where ordinary superfunction possessors gathered. Everyone was given two catties of wheat, which might not seem like much, but ordinary people had not seen crops in a long time. Those people who were in line to receive porridge flocked towards the Wei Family, and what the other big families had done earlier were almost instantly overshadowed.
The largesse from the Wang and Wei families had shocked even the old men of those families. On the one hand, they had no idea where they got so many supplies, and on the other hand, they quickly assessed the pros and cons of them being the president. At this point of time, Wei Kan and Wang Wei quietly sneaked into the capital, and visited the persons in charge of those major families one by one, telling them their excuses that they had discussed. As expected, though these families didn't promise them explicitly, they didn't stop them as well. They all felt that the Wang Family and Wei Family, who had no military power in the capital, was the best candidate for the president.
With the day of the election getting closer, everyone widened their eyes, including Liu Xizhao. No one noticed that Leng Yehan had quietly turned the Liu Army into the arm of Peak. Those soldiers and officers who were filtered out were all taken into custody. In order to win over the army in the shortest possible time, Leng Yehan told them that some generals planned to exchange them for welfare, and also gave each general plenty of supplies in front of those soldiers. The soldiers were so angry that they wanted to kill those generals. Leng Yehan was one of the Leng Family and he promised to take good care of their family, so he won their respect in a short time. There were less than three thousand soldiers remaining and he was able to incorporate all of them by the tenth day. However, they did not immediately take them away, but instruct the soldiers to pretend that nothing happened, so as to wait for a more appropriate time.
As for those generals, they couldn't understand how they could exchange their military power for some supplies. But what was done was done and it was too late to regret. Yun Che even asked them to keep it a secret, otherwise, he would advertise how they betrayed their soldiers for some supplies so that they would not be able to stay in the capital ever again. Though they hated Yun Che, they had to put up with him for the sake of their future.
On December 1, the general election officially started at nine o'clock and Lin Zhihong was still on the list of candidates. There was a venue in Section B, C, D, and E and the voting would will be carried out simultaneously. The deadline was four p.m., and those who didn't participate were regarded as abstention. After four o'clock, each major family would send a representative to supervise the ballot of the computer, and at five o'clock the result would be announced. The new president would start his duty the next day.
"The Capital Base is indeed more advanced than others. When we elected the Chairman of the Superfunction Association, we had to count the vote manually."
The neighborhood of a building in the center of Section C were crowded with people. Yun Che who entered through a special channel couldn't help but exclaim after seeing how they voted. There were countless computers in the hall, and at each computer, there was a person designated to provide guidance. People who came to vote only needed to enter their fingerprints and click on the candidate they supported.
Glancing at the long queue, Mo Wenyang said lazily, "The doomsday had just arrived then and we didn't have any free time for this kind of thing. And now every base is settled, people are living the same life as before the doomsday apart from zombies."
They also had to wait in line to enter through the special channel. Worrying the cold weather outside would freeze the kids, Yun Yao gave up her voting right and stayed at home with the children. Since the babies were not here, Heiyu stayed at home as well, so only a dozen of them came to the venue.
"Che!"
Fei Ye, who had turned into Guo Shaolong again, came over with the Overrun Squad. All superfunction squads of each section took the special channel and so did they.
Seeing him, Xing Feng subconsciously let go of Yun Che's hand and wrapped his arm around him. Yun Che shook his head helplessly, "I was just about to look for you. Do you want to come back with us after it's over?"
"Okay."
Taking a look at Xing Feng who had pulled a long face, Fei Ye smiled demonically, as if he was happy seeing the man jealous. Thousands of members of the Overrun Squad behind him were confused, having no idea why their captain, who always appeared and disappeared mysteriously, was on such good terms with Peak Squad. But they were also happy to see this, because in just a few months, Peak and become the top five ranked squad in Section C. There was absolutely no harm in befriending them.
"Captain Yun."
Not long after, Luo Haitao and Ji Wenxi from the Thunderbolt Squad walked over together. Their team was on the other side, and they came here to say hello after seeing Yun Che and his team members.
"Captain Luo, Vice Captain Ji!"
Yun Che occasionally led the team on missions in the past months so he became quite familiar with them.
"Captain Guo, you're here too. What do you think? Who are you going to vote for?"
Luo Haitao was a cautious man and he barely talked. But Ji Wenxi made friends easily and he raised his hand to greet the others and inquired with great interest.
"Wang Qiang!"
Yun Che and Fei Ye had no intention to conceal their choice, and directly told the name of the candidate from the Wang Family. Ji Wenxi didn't seem to be surprised. He crossed his arms in front of his chest and rubbed his chin, "Well, Wang Qiang and Wei Yang are good. Since both Captain Yun and Captain Guo are supporting Wang Qiang, then we'll vote for him as well. Anyway, it does not matter who win the election, as long as it is not your enemy, Captain Yun. "
His last words seemed off topic but everyone knew what he meant as soon as they heard it. If Yun Che's enemy was elected the president, he would not tell them the secret of planting, which was all they wanted now.
"Why are you making it sound like I'm in control of everything. Why don't I just go out and shout to canvass for them?"
"Haha…"
Yun Che's words amused the crowd, and they all started smiling. But what Yun Che didn't know was that though he didn't bellow, the news of who he was going to vote for soon spread. Various superfunction squads, and even many ordinary superfunction possessors knew about it. Therefore, the majority of voters in Section C supported Wang Qiang while the votes for the others were negligible.
Of course, this was part of the story to be recounted later.
"Look, it's the Imperial Squad."
After the laughing, a squad led by a woman also entered through the special channel. Ji Wenxi nudged Yun Che with his elbow, "Aren't you going to say hello?"
Xing Le was a member of the Xing Family, which all superfunction squads knew. The relationship between Xing Feng and Yun Che was not a secret. So when he saw Xing Le, Ji Wenxi naturally thought about their relationship.
"Ugh…"
To his surprise, Yun Che let out a deep sigh. Ji Wenxi and Luo Haitao both turned to look at him in confusion. The people of Peak and Chaoyang couldn't help but snicker. They were from the capital so they didn't know that Che feared nothing but women. He was not really afraid of them, but he feared that they were Yaoi fangirls. Unfortunately, most of the members of the Imperial Squad were women, so no wonder he didn't want to go
"If you don't want to go over, just don't…"
"Hey, Feng, Che!"
Before Xing Feng could finish, Xing Le, who had spotted them, approached them with the rest of the Imperial Squad. The corners of Yun Che's mouth twitched, and when he looked behind her, he saw many women's eyes glowing. The corners of his mouth twitched and Yun shamelessly ducked next to Xing Feng, and quietly pull Fei Ye over to block him, hoping that they would not notice him.
"Why are you here?"
Pulling back Yun Che's hand that was tugging at the corner of Fei Ye's coat, Xing Feng glared at his sister grumpily. If she hadn't suddenly showed up, then Che would not have tugged at Fei Ye.
Well, Xing Feng was venting his anger on someone else and he had done it righteously but without a well-founded reason.
"Why do you think I came?"
Now, Xing Feng's mom was in charge of the Xing Family. Though Xing Tianyi sometimes would make a fuss, once he was told that he was never going to see his grandchildren again, he would shut his mouth. Therefore, the atmosphere in the Xing Family grew better day by day, and the relationship between the three siblings was gradually recovering.
"Che, what are you doing hiding in the back? Come, let me introduce you to the backbone of Chaoyang!"
Pushing aside her brother, who seemed to be reluctant to see her for no reason, Xing Le pulled Yun Che over, instantly ruining his plan to escape.
"Xing Le, say what you want, why are you pulling Che?"
"The Third Young Master looks so handsome and Captain Yun is docile."
"Ah… I can't. Captain Yun and Third Young Master are such a perfect match!"
"What has Captain Yun done to his skin. It's so tender. What a beautiful boy."
"Did you see how Third Young Master protected Captain Yun? Bravo…"
"That's right…
Seeing that, Xing Feng immediately stepped forward to grab Yun Che. Before Xing Le could say anything, those women behind her started gossiping. The voices were low, but they were all superfunction possessors with excellent hearing. Yun Che was struck dumb and Xing Feng frowned. Apart from Zhan Yafei, who had great interest in the topic, other members of Peak and Chaoyang tacitly took a few steps backward. The group of Yaoi fangirls in the southwest was horrendous enough and they didn't expect there were also one in the capital. Was there a place in the world that had not been invaded by Yaoi fangirls?
The fact was that Yaoi fangirls were simply everywhere. Wherever there were women, there would always be an army of Yaoi fangirls.
"Pfft haha…this is what it is. That's hilarious. Che, so this is what you are afraid of. Haha…"
Looking back and forth at them, Xing Le laughed uncontrollably. Women were naturally Yaoi fangirls, and though she was not one herself, seeing the situation, she immediately knew what was going on.
"Luo, what is going on?"
Ji Wenxi, who seldom had contact with the Imperial Squad, actually dared to hug Luo Haitao's shoulders under such circumstance, and intimately leaned over to asked in his ears.
"Uh…what?"
Seconds ago, the girls were looking at Yun Che and Xing Feng and they instantly turned to look at them. Ji Wenxi and Luo Haitao unconsciously took several steps back. They had no idea whether they were having an illusion, but they felt like that it seemed that those women were going to rip them alive.
"Sis, goodbye, let's talk later."
Seeing that, Yun Che immediately went back to their squad with Xing Feng, leaving Ji Wenxi and Luo Haitao behind with those Yaoi fangirls. The two still had no idea what was going on so when they heard the girls talking about the two of them, they didn't overreact. They were always together so it was normal that others matched them together. But when they heard the women talking about which one of them was the top and which was the bottom, what position they used and other unutterable topics, Luo Haitao couldn't hold on any longer and Ji Wenxi was dumbfounded.
"Crap, Captain Yun, you bastard!"
As they bellowed, Ji Wenxi and Luo Haitao ran back to their squad as if they were chasing by fire. So as not to draw attention from the Yaoi fangirls, members of Peak and Chaoyang turned around, refusing to communicate with them. Yaoi fangirls were just terrible!
