"yes!"
Several voices rang out at the same time, and Cheng Kun and Teng Yi stood up straight, saluting crisply and forcefully.
The remaining three soldiers, who had been trembling on the ground, tried to stand up after receiving the order, but could not. They could only barely support themselves on the concrete with one hand, while the other hand made a salute, their movements extremely awkward. At this moment, their muscles seemed to be out of their control, only able to instinctively issue commands from their heads, and they themselves could not judge the outcome of their actions. At this point, they had lost most of their sense of touch.
The formation of the elite team was a plan Yi Fei had long ago. The five soldiers selected this time were the five with the best physical fitness in the entire division. After being trained by Lin Yao, they would become the strongest soldiers in the entire division.
In the future, the dosage of medication will be reduced when modifying the bodies of other soldiers. It will be difficult for this kind of behavior, in which Lin Yao personally escorts and enhances strength, to happen again. Therefore, these five people are the ace in the future all-army competition. Letting them lead the elite squad to carry out large-scale training activities is the best choice.
It was already afternoon when Lin Yao returned to "Urban Forest"... Naturally, he didn't go to work at Hongyuan Company and skipped work for the whole day.
Lin Yao, who was just coasting along at Hongyuan Company, had been abandoned by all his supervisors and leaders. They didn't even call to ask why he was absent from work for a whole day. This made Lin Yao very satisfied.
What Lin Yao found unsatisfactory was that none of the female office staff, with whom he had such a good relationship, even made a phone call. Didn't they worry about him getting into a car accident, accidentally falling, or even choking on a snack and ending up in the hospital?
Suddenly remembering these things, Lin Yao felt a little unhappy, and his expression turned not good. He frowned and pondered the reason in the back seat of the car, thinking to himself where he had failed and why his colleagues hadn't cared about him.
Yi Fei noticed Lin Yao's expression and didn't dare to disturb him. He pretended to close his eyes and rest, but in his heart he was thinking that this man was becoming more and more unpredictable. Fortunately, they had spent a long time together, otherwise he was afraid that he would never have had the chance to get close to him again.
Lin Yao's ordinary citizen emotions were interrupted by a phone call, pulling him back to the state of mind that belonged to his identity.
The call was from the security team. They reported on some tasks assigned by Lin Yao, and then hung up after a few words.
Now that Lin Yao has arrived in Beijing, the small team of only three to five security guards has quickly expanded. Ge Yong has mobilized many elites to Beijing. Regardless of whether Lin Yao needs their cooperation, this can be considered a form of preparation and attitude.
He registered a security company in Beijing under the guise of a security guard, recruiting numerous veterans, with those possessing strong individual abilities receiving focused training. The rest, whose performance was average, were assigned to various companies as security guards, following the normal business scope of a security company.
The company offers better pay than ordinary security companies, making it a desirable destination for many veterans.
Among those who join the army, there are also those who simply want to kill time. Some are unable to plan their youth and future and choose to spend two years in the military, while others are simply too mischievous. Their parents, in order to prevent them from going astray and to cultivate their sense of responsibility and hard work, use connections and backdoors to force them into the military, hoping to obtain a reliable young man in two years.
The "pro-DPP security company" naturally wouldn't recruit these types of soldiers who just coast along, and even if they were, they'd be promptly dismissed during their probationary period. Everyone here is a soldier; their character is immediately apparent. Trying to sneak into the pro-DPP system is utterly impossible, not even a chance.
Lin Yao didn't have any particular expectations for this security company. Since all he needed to do was provide the initial setup fee, he let Ge Yong do whatever he wanted. After all, the company's intentions were good, and he was too lazy to worry about it. However, he didn't expect it to actually come in handy now. He felt that the saying "unintentional success is a wise saying" was indeed true.
Yi Fei and Lin Yao walked into the "urban forest." As always, the Audi was parked on another street, so that Yi Fei's driver would not know that the villa existed.
"Brother Fei, you're here!" Yi Guoguo saw Yi Fei at first glance, her eyes shining. She was as excited as a housewife who had found a discounted item. "Have you eaten? If not, I'll go make you some food."
The longer Yi Guoguo spent with Lin Yao, the more casual she became. At this moment, she didn't see Lin Yao at all, and only looked at Yi Fei, who was laughing happily.
Lin Yao frowned, clearly displeased, and made no attempt to hide his expression as he walked straight to his room.
The reason for her unhappiness was not because Yi Guoguo ignored or disregarded her, but because of Yi Fei's identity.
Yi Fei is a married man. Although he has a very good appearance and high personal ability, making him the top choice for women who like mature men, this is not a reason for her to have feelings for him.
Lin Yao admires it, but if that admiration translates into action, he despises it.
"I need to have the Elder send someone else to cook." Lin Yao made the decision in his mind, and then went to the storage room to get cacti and aloe vera leaves. At this moment, he suddenly realized that there was no one available, and he missed the security guards.
"Sir, let me help you." Yi Fei, who was focused on Lin Yao, noticed Lin Yao's solo actions. After a brief chat with Yi Guoguo and Yi An, he immediately came to help.
Yi Fei thought to himself that Yi An was indeed not doing a good job. It was probably related to his age. The Yi family elders had never done this kind of service before, so even if his attitude was good, his actions were still lacking. This kind of thing has nothing to do with personal attitude, but is influenced by one's style and habits in dealing with people and things.
"Yi Fei, talk to the elder and ask him to find someone else to help me cook." Lin Yao didn't let Yi Fei do all the cooking. He gave Yi Fei some of the ingredients to carry, and he did the rest himself. He wasn't so pampered that he thought he was a prince.
"What?" Yi Fei paused, surprised by Lin Yao's decision. "Is Guo Guo's cooking not good?"
"I'm tired of it." Lin Yao didn't explain, just said that and turned to leave.
Given his status as a guest elder, he could even mobilize the resources of the Yi family, so there was no need for him to explain such a small personnel arrangement so clearly.
Yi Fei hurriedly picked up the remaining aloe vera and cactus leaves, caught up with Lin Yao, and said anxiously, "Sir, we all know that we can benefit from being by your side."
Seeing that Lin Yao did not stop, Yi Fei became even more anxious and quickly quickened his pace to catch up. "Guoguo has a lot of talent and her cooking skills are also quite good. Sir, please give her a chance to learn from you. She will definitely achieve great things."
Lin Yao stopped, turned to look at Yi Fei, and asked, "When will your wife arrange to accompany you to the military?"
The sudden question caught Yi Fei off guard, and he subconsciously replied, "There's no rush. The large-scale training has already begun, and I haven't had time to deal with these things."
"Change the person!" Lin Yao said with a stern face, then turned and walked away. "I don't allow things I don't like to happen around me. Yi Guoguo has already advanced to the mid-stage of the Earth level. It's time to go."
"Ah!" Yi Fei was shocked. He finally understood what Lin Yao meant. After thinking about it carefully, he realized that Lin Yao's words were indeed true.
Yi Guoguo was someone Yi Fei had watched grow up. She was ten years younger than him, so he always regarded her as a very hardworking and talented girl. In her, Yi Fei saw the shadow of his own hard work when he was young, so he had a special liking for this girl and took special care of her.
All along, Yi Fei had only ever regarded Yi Guoguo as his younger sister, without any selfish thoughts. But now that Lin Yao had subtly brought up this matter, Yi Fei thought about it carefully and realized that something was wrong.
Yi Guoguo always clung to him. Yi Fei used to think it was because of the deep bond between siblings and thought it was normal. However, Lin Yao, who had super keen perception and was an observer, noticed something was wrong. After only a few interactions, he felt that Yi Guoguo had ulterior motives.
When they were in Chengdu, the girl hid it well, but later she became more and more abnormal. However, her behavior was not very obvious, and even Lin Yao thought that Yi Guoguo simply liked being with Yi Fei.
Lin Yao's creation of the fog incident provided Yi Guoguo with an extremely rare experience, and after Lin Yao and Yi Fei left, she broke through to the mid-stage of the Earth level in a short period of seclusion.
Perhaps because she was too happy about advancing in the previous round, Yi Guoguo's behavior when she saw Yi Fei this time made Lin Yao realize the truth: this girl had a crush on Yi Fei! Whether it was her heartbeat or her breathing, or Lin Yao's sixth sense-like perception, he found that Yi Guoguo's feelings for Yi Fei were abnormal, which is why he had the idea of replacing her.
Lin Yao couldn't control the affairs of women in the world, nor did he believe he had the ability to judge family matters that even an upright official would find difficult to resolve. However, he simply disliked such things and was even more unwilling to let them happen around him.
The third point is that the membership system of Minhong Pharmaceutical originally had a condition for directly canceling membership. Regardless of the outcome of the operation, Lin Yao, his father Luo Jimin, and his mother Lin Hongmei firmly support this clause because society is already chaotic enough and someone needs to remind the public of their moral values.
Lin Yao returned to his room, ignoring Yi Fei who was still standing dumbly in the storage room. He decided to leave it at that and didn't care about the outcome. He wasn't Yi Fei and Yi Guoguo's parent; he had only made it clear that he didn't like it.
Without the help of the grass, Lin Yao's own control was sufficient to handle this batch of aloe vera and cactus leaves. The viscous sap was pulled out in all directions, and the crystal-clear filaments and green skin quickly separated from the leaf pulp. In no time, only a bucket full of leaf pulp remained, leaving a layer of thick green skin on the ground.
Yi Fei knocked on the door and waited for Lin Yao to greet him before entering the room.
“Sir, I will have a serious talk with Guoguo about this matter. I hope you can give her another chance.” Yi Fei put down the aloe vera leaf he was holding, looked at Lin Yao with a serious expression and pleading eyes. “Guoguo’s talent is the best among her generation, and she works very hard. I hope you can forgive her.”
