After dinner, Shao Qing straightforwardly expressed her thoughts. "I want to entrust Fu Jingmo to you as well. He's an ordinary person and it's not suitable for him to wander around with me and face all sorts of dangers. No matter what, things in the capital are more peaceful and life is better. You can bring him back too. I'll pay for his daily food and clothing."
Fu Jingmo's face immediately turned pale. He didn't hold his chopsticks tightly and they fell to the ground. After the apocalypse, he had tasted the pain of living under someone else's roof and not being able to eat enough and wear warm clothes.
Especially as a normal person who was born in a rich family, Fu Jingmo had suffered a lot.
When Shao Qing appeared in front of him, Fu Jingmo knew that his chance had come. However, because of Er Dai, Shao Qing treated him well. At least, she gave him the best food and clothing. She also didn't restrict his freedom and didn't give him any face. She also didn't polish his self-esteem. This was simply unbelievably good treatment. No matter what, he wouldn't give up on Shao Qing.
However, Shao Qing now told him that she wanted to hand him over to Zhu Mochen and bring him to the capital. This was simply a bolt from the blue for Fu Jingmo, who had some unspeakable thoughts in his heart.
He looked at Shao Qing with a pale face. After a while, he said softly, "Am I holding you back …"
Shao Qing was very calm. "You're just a normal person. My teammates and I often go on missions. The difficulty is high and the danger is high. I can't guarantee your safety. After you go to the capital with Zhu Mochen, no one will make things difficult for you. I'll pay Zhu Mochen crystals to give you the best. You don't have to worry."
In fact, Fu Jingmo also knew that this was the best. Shao Qing was willing to take care of him for the rest of his life because of Er Dai. However, Fu Jingmo couldn't and wasn't willing to leave.
He remembered what happened at that time more clearly than anyone else. Once Erdai recovered his memory one day, the stability and comfort he had would become an illusion and would be shattered in an instant.
If there wasn't any so-called friendship, Shao Qing wouldn't care about him anymore. How could he allow such a situation to happen?
"I'm not afraid!" Fu Jingmo clenched his fists. His face was filled with determination. "I don't want to live a peaceful life. I want to follow you. I can watch the house when you go on missions or accompany you. I can go anywhere. I'm not afraid!"
Gu Panpan had a good impression of Fu Jingmo. Although he had made a small mistake previously, it wasn't intentional. When she saw Fu Jingmo's pitiful appearance, her heart instantly softened. She said softly, "Sister Qing, why don't we keep him? Anyway, it's just one more mouthful of food. At most, we can let him stay in the base and watch over the house for us when we go on missions. This way, we won't let those ignorant people take over our house."
Gu Chuan silently pulled his sister. He now felt that Gu Panpan was the most ignorant person. Shao Qing clearly didn't like Fu Jingmo and wanted to chase him away for a reason. His sister was clearly a smart person. Why couldn't she see through him?
However, Shao Qing still had to give face to Gu Panpan. The rejection that was already at the tip of her tongue was slowly swallowed back down. Shao Qing glanced at Fu Jingmo. Fu Jingmo immediately said, "I definitely won't be a burden to you. When we return to the base, I can find a job to support myself. Can you … can you keep me?"
Zhu Mochen looked at Fu Jingmo as if he was watching a show. He then glanced at Shao Qing. There was no expression on his face, but his eyes were full of ridicule. "Captain Shao, have you made your decision?"
