The waste is going to strike back

Chapter 168 A Slight Sense of Uncertainty

"This, is it okay?"

"What is this?" Yan Shaohui looked at the crescent moon in his hand, a little surprised. Where did the wood get this?

Mu Xin raised his chin and said, "This is the fire crystal core I took out from the head of an SS-level zombie. I wanted to give it to you when I came back, but too many things happened in the middle and it was delayed."

"This crescent shape looks very familiar." Something flashed through Yan Shaohui's mind, and he said with understanding: "It looks exactly like your family heirloom jade necklace."

"Of course. I used my dark powers to polish it bit by bit according to my necklace. How could it be different?" Mu Xin looked at Yan Shaohui's flattered expression and hugged Yan Shaohui with a proud smile.

"So, this is a couple's necklace?" Yan Shaohui asked, touching Mu Xin's earlobe with his nose.

"Of course, this will be considered as my betrothal gift." Mu Xin said as if it was a matter of course.

Yan Shaohui laughed, "Dowry?" Since when did he accept a betrothal gift?

"Yes, isn't that pair of rings your dowry? As a courtesy, I should also give you a betrothal gift." Mu Xin said seriously.

Yan Shaohui was both angry and amused.

As Mu Xin's old man, he actually became the one who played the female role at the wedding? This seems a bit weird, right?

Seeing Mu Xin's smug face, Yan Shaohui sneered, "You mean, if we get married, I should marry you?"

Yan Shaohui's tone was dangerous, but Mu Xin was still immersed in the victory he had just won and had not come back to his senses. He did not feel the dangerous atmosphere around him at all.

"Yes."

Yan Shaohui narrowed his eyes, and his smile slowly changed from gentle to evil and dangerous. "It seems that I have been too indulgent towards you recently." No, he had to regain his authority as a husband! How could he let the little bottom climb over his head?

"Huh?" Mu Xin was a little slow to react, and then Yan Shaohui picked him up sideways, "Wow, Yan Shaohui, what are you doing?!"

"Restore the husband's authority!"

"You...if you have something to say, please talk it over nicely. Don't resort to violence just because you disagree with me!"

"I won't fight with you." Yan Shaohui's smile was so fake that Mu Xin shuddered subconsciously after seeing it.

Immediately afterwards, Mu Xin felt dizzy and was thrown onto the bed by Yan Shaohui. Then the tall man pressed on him in an instant.

"Tell me again, who will marry whom?"

"You...you..." Mu Xin wanted to say "marry me", but looking at Yan Shaohui's eyes that were like a beast, she couldn't open her mouth.

"You won't tell me, right? Then let's get the answer through practice!" Then Yan Shaohui began to take off his clothes.

"Hey! I said I wouldn't use force!" Mu Xin hurriedly called for a stop. But the person lying on top of him sneered.

"I don't think romantic action movies count as violence."

As for the question of who would marry whom, the best answer was probably that Mu Xin couldn't even get out of bed the next day.

Well... practice really makes perfect.

Although Yan Shaohui really wanted to hold the wedding earlier, Mu Xin felt that it was not the right time.

The base is very peaceful now, but this peace makes Mu Xin feel slightly uneasy.

But Mu Xin didn't know why he felt uneasy, and in the end he could only attribute it to the fact that Dr. Yan had not yet developed antibodies against the zombie virus.

So in the end, the two of them took a step back and finally decided to announce their relationship to the public first, then hold a simple engagement ceremony, and postpone the marriage.

For this purpose, Mu Xin and Yan Shaohui specially held a meeting and broadcast the event live via satellite to ensure that all bases across the country could see it.

After the announcement, there were still some voices of opposition, believing that they were immoral and that such shameful things should be done in private. Wouldn't it corrupt the children to talk about them in public?

Dr. Yan, a researcher, sneered after hearing this: Most people nowadays will not choose to get married and have children, because in today's world, who knows if the other half lying next to you will turn into a zombie and eat you in the next second.

Nowadays it is very difficult for people to maintain a relationship of mutual trust and confiding with each other, so how can they talk about marriage?

Furthermore, even if you want to have a child, it is hard to say whether the child will turn into a zombie in the womb due to external factors, and eat the person who carried him for ten months from the inside out before he is born.

It is difficult for true love to appear between men and women nowadays because most people have begun to lose faith in love.

Now finally a couple who truly love each other have come out, and you still say that they are immoral?

They didn't rob or steal, they weren't getting married to close relatives, and it wasn't incest, it wasn't incest, it was just that they wanted to share their happy event with you, so what's wrong with that? Sexual orientation is related to genes, and it's impossible for a child to learn bad habits just because someone announced an engagement, not to mention that getting married isn't a bad thing.

Is it so unpopular just because I fall in love with someone of the same gender as me?

I didn't expect to see such rigid and dogmatic old-fashioned people in this period. It's really ignorant and ridiculous.

Dr. Yan's remarks were published verbatim on Satellite News, silencing all the opposing voices.

And because of these remarks, Dr. Yan successfully became a male god-like figure in the hearts of those in the closet. Of course, this is a story for later.

For Yan Shaohui and Mu Xin, who had experienced many storms, this kind of opposition was like a small stone thrown into the sea, which could not stir up any waves. Anyway, they were the only ones to live their lives, and others had no right to point fingers at them.

The two parties remained calm in all aspects, still working when they should work and showing their affection when they should. People around them gradually got used to their way of getting along, and sometimes even envied their inseparable relationship.

Of course, it doesn't mean that they are always sweet and happy. Sometimes they quarrel, usually because someone exercises too much at night and can't get up the next day, so they get angry with Yan Shaohui.

The rest of the time, it's generally harmonious and happy.

Hui Ge finally pried out all the secrets hidden in the minds of those spies, and then sorted them out and sent them to Yan Shaohui.

"Commander, do we still need to keep these people?" Hui Ge asked, standing in front of Yan Shaohui's desk.

Yan Shaohui roughly read the confessions of those spies, and then said: "Leaving them here will waste the food of the base, so don't keep them."

"Okay, then I'll have them killed and thrown out of the base to feed the zombies."

Yan Shaohui stopped Hui Ge who was about to leave and said, "That's not what I meant."

"Hmm?" Gray Pigeon was full of questions, "What does that mean?"

“Let them go back to their own homes. If they can’t hold on and die when they ‘go home’, then there’s no one to blame.” Yan Shaohui chuckled.

"Isn't this too easy for those bases?" Gray Pigeon frowned in disapproval. "They have let these inside players do a lot of bad things over the years."

"I know."

Yan Shaohui pointed at the confession that Huige had given him and said, "You have recorded it very clearly here."

In the past few years, there have been several major and minor incidents at the base. An ammunition depot exploded, killing nearly a hundred people, a granary was inexplicably stolen, and zombies were released into the base, injuring residents... Each of these incidents could almost shake the morale of the people in the base, and behind these incidents, there are more or less the shadows of these insiders.

Countless successes and failures in history are actually related to public opinion.

Yan Shaohui naturally understood how important the people's hearts were to the base. If the people's hearts were scattered and they had no confidence in the base, then the base would actually become an empty shell, existing in name only.

At that time, no matter how many weapons and ammunition we have, no matter how many good soldiers and generals we have, we will eventually be defeated by those who succeed in their evil schemes.

Seeing that Gray Pigeon still didn't understand, Yan Shaohui explained, "Killing the chicken is to warn the monkey. The chicken is killed and bled, but the monkey is not allowed to see the scene of killing the chicken. Naturally, the monkey will not be afraid, so new chickens will appear soon."

Gray Pigeon suddenly realized, "So that's how it is."

"Go down and deliver a message to the base where those spies are located, telling them that they have left someone behind in the First Base. If you don't come to find them, you will bear the consequences at your own risk." Yan Shaohui said, raising the confessions in his hand.

"I'll do it right away."
