After chatting for a while, Minister Ren threw down the gift and left without even taking a sip of tea.
Luo Yuan walked him to the door and sat down again.
Guo Zhiping immediately felt a little restless. As for his arrogant words just now, he wished he could turn back time and pretend he had never said them.
He was not an idiot. As a member of the security department of the city government, he knew Minister Ren. How could he be an ordinary evolved person if Minister Ren came to visit him and give him gifts?
Moreover, from Minister Ren's tone, he knew that the visit was commissioned by the higher-ups. If it was not for the fear of bad influence, the person who came would be of a higher rank. This kind of person was completely beyond his imagination.
The more he thought about it, the more restless he became. After a while, he could not sit still anymore and said, "I'm sorry, I have something to do later. I'll leave first."
"Take care!" Luo Yuan said calmly.
Guo Zhiping stood up and walked towards the door with a stiff face. He heard someone laughing behind him and felt his face burning. He quickly lowered his head and walked away quickly. He did not want to stay there for even a second longer.
"Rude!" Luo Yuan said.
"I did it on purpose. I thought you were full of confidence just now. I didn't expect you to bully the weak and fear the strong." Wang Shishi said disapprovingly when she saw that Luo Yuan was not angry.
Luo Yuan could not help but laugh. This was human nature. As long as one was rational, one would not be confident in such a situation. He was just an ordinary evolved human, so it was natural for him to be afraid in front of a high-ranking government official.
"Let me see, what did Minister Ren give?" Wang Shishi opened the gift bag and looked at it. She was shocked and said, "It's three bottles of level seven meat powder!"
"This is rare!" Luo Yuan frowned. He thought that Hope City was generous this time. Level seven meat powder was very rare and even he had not seen it before. Within the reconstruction area, there were very few creatures of this level. Even if one was killed, it would be divided by the military. Very few of them would end up in Hope City.
"Isn't it too expensive?" Zhao Yali asked.
"Not really, it's just rare." Luo Yuan said.
He had already killed quite a few Level 7 creatures, so he did not care much about this kind of meat powder. Moreover, he had no interest in this kind of sticky thing. Comparatively speaking, he preferred to eat fresh meat.
Wang Xiaguang felt a little disappointed as she looked at Luo Yuan and the rest of the group chatting happily. She felt like an outsider and out of place.
This time, she had brought Guo Zhiping along not only because she was annoyed by him, but also because she wanted to use Luo Yuan as a shield to make him give up. It was also a hint and an ultimatum. If he did not respond, she was ready to give up on their relationship.
In the post-apocalyptic world, a woman needed a family. The pressure from the organization and public opinion made her unable to breathe. The monthly blind date organized by the government gave her even more pressure.
She wasn't young anymore. Maybe it was time to start a family.
She sat for a while and found an excuse. She stood up and said, "I have a meeting later. I'll be leaving first!"
"Why are you in such a hurry? Let's eat first." Zhao Yali quickly said.
"Time is a little tight. I'll go back to the station to eat." Wang Xiaguang forced a smile and prepared to leave.
"Wait!" Luo Yuan grabbed her hand. He did not care that she was secretly trying to pull her hand away. He held it tightly and said, "You should move back. It'll be more lively with everyone living together."
Perhaps he was already used to Wang Xiaguang's secret love. All this time, he had not felt anything for her. He had taken it for granted until the appearance of his love rival. He suddenly realized that he could not bear to part with her.
He could not imagine how regretful it would be for Wang Xiaguang to fall into someone else's arms. Fortunately, it was not too late.
"Yes!" Huang Jiahui was stunned for a moment. Ever since the Desert City was controlled by the evolved human, the women had gone through thick and thin together. They had witnessed each other's true love. They had long since acknowledged Wang Xiaguang.
Wang Xiaguang struggled for a while and gave up. She said with a gloomy face, "What do you mean? Are you giving me charity? Yes, I do like you, but don't think that you can look down on me. I, Wang Xiaguang, have never been that kind of woman! "
She had a kind of pride in her bones. She dared to love and hate, but she was not one to submit to adversity.
"Calm down!" Luo Yuan recalled, "We've known each other for a long time. You were still my colleague back then. We worked in the same company. There was one time when we had a barbecue at Donghu. You told me that your house had built a shelter and that if you were in trouble, you could go and stay at your house. I've never forgotten what you said!"
Wang Xiaguang took a deep breath and turned her head away. She did not know why, but she felt a little sad. Her eyes turned red and tears rolled down her cheeks.
Huang Jiahui pulled Wang Shishi and Chen Jiayi out of the living room quietly.
"Humans are not plants. How could I not know your feelings? But you were a rich girl, beautiful and rich, and I was just a poor boy. The gap between our families was too big, and I had a strong sense of self-esteem. I really did not want to get close to you."
"I didn't mind." Wang Xiaguang mumbled softly. She wiped her tears and said, "What happened after that? I don't think there was such a reason anymore!"
"After that?" Luo Yuan glanced at her and said, "Why do you think I haven't done anything to a beautiful woman like you in this lawless apocalypse?"
"You don't like me, and you don't lack women." Wang Xiaguang pouted. Tears rolled down her cheeks again as she thought about her grievances.
Luo Yuan opened his mouth but did not know how to explain.
To a man, sex was one thing, and love was another. If Luo Yuan had not restrained himself under such circumstances and did not want to hurt her, Wang Xiaguang would not have been able to maintain her virginity.
Wang Xiaguang looked at her embarrassed face and laughed. She laughed with tears in her eyes and said, "Silly, I believe you!"
She sighed in her heart. She was a smart woman and did not want to get to the bottom of it. Luo Yuan was such a powerful man, and this was the best ending she could think of. Although this was not the perfect love that she had imagined, people would eventually compromise. After knowing such an outstanding man like Luo Yuan, it was difficult for her to accept anyone else in her heart. She would unconsciously compare everyone who pursued her to Luo Yuan, and in the end, she would only be disappointed.
Perhaps nothing in this world could be perfect, and there would always be flaws.
Looking at Wang Xiaguang's pouting lips, which were pink and moist, Luo Yuan could not help but pull Wang Xiaguang over and kiss her. His lips were hot and salty, and he kissed her until she felt weak all over. After he let go of her, he said softly, "Listen to me, stay!"
"No, we're going too fast!" Wang Xiaguang rejected him shyly.
"What are you thinking? I'm just asking you to stay here. Haven't you lived here before?" Luo Yuan was speechless.
Seeing Wang Xiaguang's hesitation, Luo Yuan said, "Are you worried that they will bully you?"
"Sure, I'm not afraid." Wang Xiaguang said while gritting her teeth.
Although it seemed like Luo Yuan was trying to provoke her, she actually agreed to it.
