Xiang Jintian pursed his lips to hide his smile, and stroked her messy little head.
"Wash up and come out to eat."
Xu Qian finished washing up at top speed.
The two began to slurp noodles.
After eating, Xu Qian gave him a thumbs-up and a vigorous nod.
This cooking skill, amazing!
After a short rest, Xiang Jintian's eyes flickered slightly, and he suggested, "Qianqian, why don't we go back, and hand over the data we collected this time?"
Upon hearing the word "base," Xu Qian's face instantly turned grim. She had no intention of paying him any mind.
They had clearly agreed to go destroy the base together, but now he was going back on his word.
Seeing Xu Qian's displeasure, Xiang Jintian quickly explained, "Qianqian, I'm not saying I don't want to go with you alone.
It's just that the base needs this data. We have to give it to them as soon as possible so they can analyze its contents."
His words made sense, but they couldn't go back.
The Big Boss was waiting for them in B City, and might even send people to look for them.
Knowing her to be with others, he would surely go mad.
She could only resort to avoidance to solve this problem.
The system had given her a second life to complete the conquest mission.
It wasn't that liking him meant she could abandon everything for him.
Xu Qian had always been a very rational person, able to distinguish right from wrong, good from evil.
She knew what she was doing, but what of it?
Then she would be the villain.
Because no matter what she did, she was still a villain.
Xu Qian looked up at him and said very calmly,
"Jintian, I don't want to say it a second time. I don't want to go to B City. I know you're a soldier of the Guangming Base, and you have responsibilities and obligations.
But I also have my own plans and goals. I have a truck in my space. You can take the data back, and you should go back too."
Xiang Jintian said in a deep voice, "Can you tell me why?"
Xu Qian was silent for a moment before replying, "There's someone I know at the Guangming Base, and I don't want to see him."
Xiang Jintian understood. So this was the reason she had been unwilling to go back?
He didn't ask who it was, but unusually, he pleaded in a low voice, "Qianqian, wait for me outside the base. I'll come out to accompany you after I hand in the data, okay?"
He didn't want to be separated from her.
Did she know what a devastatingly handsome face looked like when it put on that expression?
It was enough to make any female fall!
His normally gentle yet sharp eyes became watery, like a tiger acting spoiled?
Xu Qian pondered for a moment. This was indeed his job, and it wouldn't be good for her to be too unreasonable.
They were in the honeymoon phase now, and it would be a pity to let him go.
"I'll compromise. Bring the data to Jintian Base, and ask your friend to send it to Guangming Base, how about that?"
Xiang Jintian frowned. Jintian Base and Guangming Base were in a cooperative relationship, and they were very close. He wasn't afraid of theft.
Xu Qian had finally agreed, and if he objected again, she would probably turn and leave, abandoning him entirely.
"Alright, let's set off now."
H City was not far from Jintian Base. They were both cities close to A City's lifestyle, and it would take about 2 hours to drive there.
Xu Qian stored the RV and switched to a jeep.
Driving an RV was too conspicuous and could easily lead to them being recognized.
Jintian Base.
As soon as they entered the city, voices flooded into her mind. Jintian Base still had many Level 2 ability users and ordinary people.
Her ability was finally not useless.
It was a pity, however, that most ability users now were Level 3. At the same level, their thoughts couldn't be heard.
