#290 - Chapter 290 Leave it to me
Inside the leader's office.
Qin Jin was fidgeting, unsure of what to do with his hands. His eyes darted around, stealing shy glances at the bashful Zhao Ling before him.
"Um... sorry... I didn't mean to..."
He weakly uttered these irresponsible words to her.
Zhao Ling's face was still flushed, and she was panting slightly, giving the man a playful glare.
She had almost been kissed to the point of passing out!
The kiss must have lasted almost two minutes. At first, she was surprised, but then she got caught up in it.
But then she realized something was wrong.
With the terrifying strength of the man before her, she couldn't break free at all.
If she hadn't desperately pounded on the wooden man's shoulder, she might have become one of the casualties of this incident.
Cause of death: suffocation.
This blockhead...
But despite her seemingly shy anger, she was secretly delighted inside.
"President Qin, please be gentler next time, or I won't see the sun tomorrow."
Qin Jin felt that the woman's words were strange, but in his panic, he nodded repeatedly.
Huh?
Next time!?
Are we talking about the same thing?
Or... is it this exciting?
"Um... well... I heard you performed well today, successfully identifying the enemy's hostages and preventing losses to the base. Please keep up the good work. The development of the base depends on you meritorious officials."
He quickly changed the subject, scratching his head, and picked up a document, pretending to be seriously working, showing no interest in romance.
"..."
Zhao Ling was speechless.
"Pfft~"
Finally, she couldn't help but laugh, amused by the wooden man's behavior.
The cold and ruthless Qin Jin in front of outsiders only showed this side of himself to her.
"Okay, I'll go out and get busy first. Pay attention to your hand. It's best not to touch water tonight. With your physique, you'll probably be fine tomorrow~"
Zhao Ling saw that Qin Jin didn't plan to openly discuss their relationship yet.
So she didn't push him.
Today, this blockhead's behavior was already unexpected!
Her expectations weren't high to begin with.
For this kind of man, in this world, it was already not easy to leave a place in his heart.
She was satisfied to be able to accompany him.
"By the way, President Qin, remember to wipe off the lipstick on your mouth, hehe, goodbye."
Finally, she left a sentence, Zhao Ling smiled, waved at Qin Jin, picked up her medical kit, and walked briskly to the office door before leaving.
"..."
Huff.
Watching Zhao Ling's graceful figure leave, Qin Jin found a tissue to clean his mouth and finally breathed a sigh of relief.
Just now, he had almost inadvertently and proactively "killed" her.
He was really ashamed.
It seemed that his self-control was still insufficient.
He admitted that he had indeed lost control at that moment.
It's not like he didn't understand Zhao Ling's affection for him.
But for some reason, another voice always emerged from the depths of his heart.
Alas.
These things are more tiring than fighting a million zombies.
Qin Jin vigorously rubbed his face, threw the messy thoughts out of his mind, and returned to work mode.
The base has not yet been built, and today it was almost breached. What kind of love are you talking about now!?
What is the meaning of this!?
Quickly go back to work!
******
Near dusk.
At the gate of the Green Source Main Base.
A long convoy of vehicles appeared in the eyes of the guards.
The guards had already received the message from the walkie-talkie in advance. Captain Li and Captain Zhong, who had been out for two full days, were finally back!
This convoy was Li Bowen and his team who went to Yucheng to transport arms!
Taking advantage of the good weather today, they spent almost the entire day bringing back the fully loaded arms and weapons to the Green Source Base!
"Rumble——"
The outer gates of the main base and sub-bases were opened separately, allowing the returning convoy to enter for quarantine in sequence. The zombies outside had naturally been killed and cleared by the team members in advance.
Huh!?
Li Bowen, who was escorting the arms to the isolation area of the sub-base, frowned slightly when he saw some explosion and bullet residue marks next to the gate.
He remembered that the sub-base had just been built and had not undergone any battles yet?
Could it be that a large number of zombies besieged the city here today, fought a high-intensity battle, and even used bombs?
With questions, they successively drove the cars into the two isolation areas.
The team members in charge of docking and helping at the base were also prepared, waiting for their isolation time to be sufficient, and they would help to transport the newly retrieved materials.
*****
"What!!?"
"Someone actually took advantage of the emptiness of the base today and almost breached us and took it over!?!"
After completing the quarantine and meeting with the base cadres to exchange information, Li Bowen and Zhong Yu had just learned what happened today, and they were so shocked that their mouths were wide open!
How is that possible!?
The Green Source Base, which they used to think was extremely powerful and safe, was actually attacked all the way to the gate of the main base under the planning of a group of people with ulterior motives!
It was said that if President Qin hadn't happened to return to the base at a critical time, it was likely that the group of people would have escaped Mentang Town with the negotiated materials, becoming a serious hidden danger.
"Where are those people!? What's the situation now?"
Hearing that this kind of thing happened, the newly returned personnel couldn't wait to rush out and kill all these people.
Wang Yang and Qin's father were responsible for handing over the materials. After explaining the situation to Captain Li and the others, they guessed that the returning personnel would be shocked. After all, before the incident happened, even they couldn't believe it.
Soon, they heard about how President Qin returned later and exposed the other party, and then led the personnel to counterattack, almost killing all the anti-Green Alliance people who attacked the sub-base, and later went out to hunt down the escaped fish who besieged the residential area.
"Damn it! Tomorrow I will continue to lead people to hunt down these bastards!"
Zhong Yu clenched his fists and shouted angrily.
He was really angry!
The feeling of being attacked at the door and directly shitting on their heads was definitely extremely uncomfortable!
When did they ever think that they would be bullied like this one day!?
They had always bullied others!
A blood debt must be paid in blood!
"So, those captured prisoners are all in the interrogation room of the main base!"
When Zhong Yu said this, including the others, they couldn't help but turn their attention to Gao Qiang, who was standing silently beside him!
"Gao Qiang, there's work to do tonight!"
For this interrogation specialist of the base, the first thing others thought of at this time was Gao Qiang, who had suffered the pain of losing his relatives before.
Gao Qiang had been listening all along. When he heard that the base was attacked, there were several fluctuations in his wooden eyes.
Hearing the words of others at this time, he did not remain silent.
He said in a low voice with his hoarse voice that had become hoarse since the last incident:
"Leave it to me!"
