Rebirth: Leading Families to Survive in the Apocalypse - Chapter 759: Discipline
Chapter 759: Chapter 759: Discipline
Su Jin was startled upon hearing the name Kou Ning in the Space.
How did her family come across him?
Kou Ning, she had heard this name before her death in her past life.
It was said that he was a madman, a madman without humanity. He had slaughtered a multitude of Special Ability Users, and those were some of the top masters at the time, causing many rising teams to dare not participate in the bounty team assessments, because the people Kou Ning killed were basically from S-level or even SS-level teams…
Moreover, in her previous life, Kou Ning appeared and disappeared unpredictably, and nobody knew he was affiliated with the Han family.
“So he is actually a member of the Han family? You all must stay far away from him,”
Su Jin said, but saw that her family’s expression all changed slightly.
“Um, Su Jin, Grandpa seems to… get along quite well with that Kou Ning…”
Lin Xiuyuan said at the dinner table while biting his chopsticks.
Crack!
Su Jin’s chopsticks slipped out of her grip and fell to the floor.
“Grandpa, what did you say to him?”
Su Jin immediately asked.
Even Li Xiuying put down her rice bowl and looked seriously at her husband; if Xiao Jin said it was dangerous, it was indeed dangerous. What had this old man been up to outside?
“Nothing much. He liked the meat I cooked, so I just talked with him a bit more and gave him a big pig leg. He seemed quite happy about it.”
Lin Yunguo felt somewhat wronged. He hadn’t done anything wrong, so why did the two women in the house with the most say seem to think he had made a mistake?
“Xiao Jin, the Kou Ning we met today was really odd. He didn’t seem too friendly towards Han Yue. Even Han Yue got angry,”
Huang Yunxiang hurriedly defended her father-in-law.
“If it’s really like you said, the Han family members might have wanted Kou Ning to eliminate dissenters at that time. That means he could potentially become an adversary to the Heart Talk Team in the future,”
Lu Hao analyzed.
“No worries, my grandpa pacified him with just a duck leg,”
Lin Xiuyuan said, taking a bite of a fried peanut that was crunchy from the frying.
“Young rascal, hold your tongue,”
Lin Yunguo glared at Lin Xiuyuan.
Was this kid stupid? Huang Yunxiang and Lu Hao had just managed to turn the conversation away from him, and there Lin Xiuyuan goes, bringing it back.
“Lin Yunguo! Care to give us an explanation?”
Li Xiuying felt she had completely lost her appetite and, with a smile, turned to her husband and asked.
…
In an apartment in F Base, Han Yue looked at Kou Ning, who was reaching out for meat, and said coldly,
“Kou Ning, have you forgotten that you are a part of the Han family?”
“I kill zombies and people for you, you provide me with food. Isn’t that the deal?”
Kou Ning said carelessly as he dug his little finger into his ear.
“But don’t you think you are being a little too disobedient?”
Han Yue tried to guide the conversation.
“Do you know? Even before the Apocalypse, I thought all of our company bosses were shit.”
Kou Ning pulled up a chair with wheels next to Han Yue and sat down, smiling as he continued,
“Employees work for the company, the company pays the employees. The relationship between the two is inherently equal. So why should employees follow commands and do work that is not part of their salary? Why endure scolding, and why, after being scolded, should they still have to apologize with a smile?”
“Because their salary includes these aspects as well,”
Han Yue replied.
“No, no, no, the value created by the employees is far more than that measly salary. So, what is the real culprit?”
Kou Ning leaned in close to Han Yue and asked, staring at him.
Seeing that Han Yue didn’t answer, Kou Ning slid back in his chair and burst into loud laughter.
“It’s all bullshit, no difference, hahahaha”
Kou Ning, laughing until tears filled his eyes, suddenly felt a dull pain assaulting his head!
The pain almost made him slide off the chair.
What’s going on?!
“Kou Ning, you’re strong, but don’t easily resist the people who feed you. Be smart, and once you’ve climbed to the top of a corporation, you’ll understand why,”
Han Yue said, stopping the mental attack while he spoke. It was the first time he had done such a thing to Kou Ning; he wouldn’t allow Kou Ning to look at him with that kind of disdain ever again.
“Was it you?”
Kou Ning’s eyes widened in shock as he looked at Han Yue.
Pleased with Kou Ning’s astonished expression, Han Yue snorted coldly and walked out:
“If you want to eat, go ask Du Qisheng yourself. Don’t hang around like a begging dog all day. If this happens again, don’t blame me for not being polite.”
No matter how powerful Sun Wukong was, wasn’t he still suppressed by Tang Monk’s Tightening Curse?
They had indeed been too lenient with this Kou Ning before.
…
Under the family’s effort of “working overtime” to sell supplies every day, the queuing number, which had reached over three thousand, finally dwindled to around a thousand. Moreover, the F City base stopped distributing queue tokens, which meant Dragon Ruler was no longer accepting new people in the queue. It was said that there were not many supplies left.
“Most people who had Crystal Cores and were desperate for supplies have already come. Those who are coming slowly now either didn’t believe it at first or are just trying their luck. So we believe it’s time to stop,”
Lu Hao explained to Bu Hong and the others.
“Yeah, yeah, once we’ve sold these off, we want to save some to continue asking for your help,”
Lin Xiuyuan added.
So it wasn’t that Dragon Ruler’s supplies were running low. Bu Hong and the others were relieved because they still planned to trade with Long Aotian and his people for supplies one more time.
Although Han Yue was still at the F City base, he hadn’t harassed the family again in the past few days. Just when everyone thought he no longer posed a threat to them, Mao Zhihang came with unexpected news that surprised everyone.
“It’s a drawing like this one,”
Mao Zhihang redrew the contents of the paper sent by Liang Jiuhui, explaining as he did.
It was the very message that Wang Liang had sent through the Wei family. Although Liang Jiuhui and his group couldn’t understand the paper’s meaning, Mao Zhihang and Lin Tianzhen got it immediately.
The Han family had actually begun to suspect the relationship between the Heart Talk Team and Dragon Ruler!
The two arrows pointing to the same place could also indicate that they suspected they were working together!
“My god, how did they come up with that?”
Lu Guanhai was startled. They didn’t even look alike, and yet they were suspected; it was frankly terrifying.
“Time,”
Lu Hao pointed to the two dates on the paper, acknowledging that they had indeed been careless. Dragon Ruler’s appearances did indeed occur after the Heart Talk Team’s activities, and the locations matched up quite well. Plus, considering the Han family had informants in both A and D Cities before, it wasn’t that strange for them to be suspicious.
“So, did he come this time to see if any of us belonged to the Heart Talk Team?”
Su Xiangzhe asked.
