Chapter 176 Only She Can Do It
Yang Yuqiu stood at the gate of the courtyard, and felt a gust of wind blowing in front of him, and a figure flashed past his eyes.
"Captain He, I have something else to do. I will convey your words. Don't chase us!" Jiang Baota's voice came from afar.
"Don't run, kid! Come back and talk again!" He Yang chased to the gate of the courtyard and stopped, looking at Jiang Baota's running back, and shouted angrily.
Yang Yuqiu asked in confusion: "He Yang, what's wrong?"
He Yang didn't chase him anymore. He scratched his short hair in frustration and said, "It's nothing. I'm just irritated. What did you want to tell me just now?"
Yang Yuqiu said, "I heard from Wanxin that my mother's two students were rescued by you. Can I meet them?"
"She told you?" He Yang asked in surprise.
No wonder Yang Yuqiu cried when he brought the meteorite back. So this is what happened.
Yang Yuqiu nodded: "Can you help me arrange it?"
He Yang agreed: "Okay."
After a pause, he said solemnly and apologetically: "I'm sorry, Xiaoqiu, I couldn't rescue Aunt Yang in time. I didn't tell you before, and I didn't think about how to say it. I'm really sorry."
Yang Yuqiu's eyes were filled with tears. She shook her head with a choked voice, "You don't have to say sorry to me. It was raining so hard and everything was in chaos. You still came to Fengcheng to find someone for me. I am only grateful to you in my heart."
He Yang tried to ask: "Tian - what did she tell you at that time?"
Yang Yuqiu looked at him with a puzzled look: "Wanxin said that she saw my mother for the last time in Laolongwo and told me her last words. She didn't say anything else."
He Yang breathed a sigh of relief. This was good. As for Academician Yang’s final condition, there was no need to let more people know. Doing so would only add to the pain.
With a "creak", the gate of the courtyard was opened from the inside, and Xiang Maosen and Tuoba Qing stood side by side behind the door.
He Yang looked at Tuoba Qing with a cold face: "Oh, has the top-secret mission of the chief consultant been arranged?"
Xiang Maosen said disapprovingly: "Xiao Yang."
"Uncle Xiang." Yang Yuqiu greeted Xiang Maosen.
Xiang Maosen said amiably, "Xiaoqiu, you've had a hard time along the way. I'll have someone take you down to rest."
Yang Yuqiu said: "Uncle Xiang, I want to meet my mother's two students."
Xiang Maosen nodded and said, "I'll arrange it."
After saying that, he called a guard over and gave him some instructions.
After Yang Yuqiu followed the guards away, he turned to He Yang and said, "Xiao Yang, please ask Wan Xin for help. I need her help with something."
He Yang looked at Tuoba Qiong suspiciously: "Uncle Xiang, if you have to ask me for something, can't I do it?"
Tuoba Qiong said coldly: "Captain He, you are so shameless. Who is she to you? Why do you call her like that regardless of the occasion? Do you know how much damage your frivolousness has caused to her reputation?"
He Yang thought of the obscene words that Jiang Baota had relayed to him, and his face became so gloomy that water could be squeezed out of it.
"She is understanding and kind-hearted. Her heart is not here. She won't bother with you about these trivial matters. And you should not go too far and try to interfere in her affairs." Tuoba Qing said bluntly.
He Yang frowned deeply: "Don't talk as if you have known her for a long time. We don't need you to comment on our affairs."
Xiang Maosen looked at He Yang, then at Tuoba Qing, and his heart sank.
Why does this new sentry seem to be related to Wanxin?
He interrupted the tense confrontation between the two and asked, "Does Wanxin have to be involved in this matter?"
Tuoba Qiong retracted his gaze, folded his arms and said, "Only she can do it."
He Yangyi crossed his arms and said, "You asked her to do something, not only did you ask me to run errands for you, but you also asked her to come over. Isn't that a bit too insincere?"
Xiang Maosen closed his eyes with a headache: "Stop arguing, let's go together."
When the three of them walked not far from Yuanyi Gate, they were blocked by a crowded crowd.
He Yang grabbed an old man who was trying to push forward and asked, "What are you doing?"
The uncle said excitedly: "Sister Ai is back, and she brought back a skeleton of the boss, the kind that can move, come and see it!"
He Yang bared his teeth slightly: "Aren't you afraid?"
This giant skeleton looks weird no matter how you look at it, right?
"With Sister Ai here, can it still hurt us?" The auntie next to him rolled her eyes at He Yang, she didn't even recognize him.
The uncle broke free of He Yang's hand and continued to squeeze forward. Seeing that the road ahead was too crowded to move forward, He Yang had no choice but to say, "Uncle Xiang, I'll take you there."
Xiang Maosen's face was a little stiff. The old commander, who had been steady all his life, thought about how he was being taken to heaven by his nephew and felt a little bit unable to watch.
"Commander Xiang, let me take you there." Tuoba Qing chuckled and raised his left hand. Xiang Maosen's figure flashed and rose straight into the air from the crowd.
Tuoba Qiong followed closely behind, walking slowly towards the city gate as if he were walking on flat ground.
The people who came to watch the Bone Lord were shocked by the scene before them. Many of them asked, "Who is this red-haired guy?"
"I don't know. I've never seen it."
"He can walk in the sky, so he must be a sentinel, right?"
"I wonder who is better, Captain He or me?"
"Anyway, I'm definitely not as good as Sister Ai."
"That's for sure—"
Tuoba Qiong listened to all these discussions and a nostalgic smile appeared on the corner of his lips.
It seems that she is also very popular in this base.
The three of them crossed the crowded crowd and landed at the gate of the territory, but were stopped by two girls carrying carbines.
"Who is it?" the curly-haired girl on the left shouted.
Xiang Maosen stepped forward and said kindly, "I am Xiang Maosen, the person in charge of Fengbei Base. I have something to discuss with Miss Ai."
The girl didn't know him, but she knew He Yang. She looked the three of them up and down and nodded: "I'll go and inform them, you wait here."
Xiang Maosen did not feel neglected or offended. The base was too large and he was unable to do so. To be honest, he felt relieved to have a place to protect the safety of these vulnerable groups.
After waiting for a while, they saw Ai Wanxin striding towards them.
She looked at Xiang Maosen with some curiosity: "Why is Commander Xiang here?"
Xiang Maosen smiled amiably and said, "Wanxin, there's no need to be so formal. You can call me Uncle Xiang like He Yang does."
He Yang glanced at Xiang Maosen. Is Uncle Xiang helping him?
Ai Wanxin changed her words readily: "Uncle Xiang, you're looking for me?"
Xiang Maosen then agreed and said, "Wanxin, your small base has been under construction for some time. Would it be convenient for you to show Uncle Xiang around? Uncle Xiang also has a few words to say to you."
Ai Wanxin smiled and said, "Of course."
