Chapter 337 - Apocalypse Sisters
Chapter 338 of "Quick Transmigration: Drama Queen's Daily Life" starts revealing the story: "Captain Ye, have you just returned? Did you find what Doctor Ye needed?" The leader... Donât miss it!
"Captain Ye, have you just returned? Did you find what Doctor Ye needed?" The leader of the Hu Province Baseâs Heart Guard Team, Zhao Guang, greeted Ye Dong. Although he had stepped down from the position of base commander, Zhao Guang didnât seem to feel any loss. Moreover, due to the fierce methods of Duan Kai and Ye Dong, no one within the base dared to disrespect him.
He had fewer managerial duties and didnât need to worry about his life all the time. Plus, his familyâs living standards kept improving with the research breakthroughs made by Captain Yeâs Sister, Doctor Ye. Zhao Guang and his brothers were finally willing to wholeheartedly serve Duan Kai and Ye Dong.
"Hmm, you could say weâve accomplished our mission honorably." Ye Dong had a relaxed smile on her face. Dressed in her powerful attire, she looked tall and spirited, causing many guards and returning Superpower Users from their tasks to stare in awe.
Ye Qiu and Ye Dong were considered the most famous sister flowers of Hu Province Base, with their beautiful appearance and formidable strength, and being one of the leaders of the base. Hence, they didnât lack attentions showered upon them.
But since Ye Qiu was always in the laboratory, Ye Dong became the main focus of attention for most people. However, because she was ranked second only to Duan Kai in strength, most people were intimidated and kept their distance.
Yet, not everyone was deterred. At this moment, a handsome young man approached Ye Dong, eliciting a round of cheers from the surrounding crowd.
The young man was called Leo, a well-known Superpower User in the base. He walked up to Ye Dong with a smile: "Ye Dong, welcome back!"
A nearly imperceptible frown crossed Ye Dongâs forehead, feeling a bit annoyed. This wasnât the first time Leo had shown her his attentions, but no matter whether she implicitly or explicitly rejected him, he seemed not to understand and kept hovering around her.
Since he hadnât made any other excessive moves, she couldnât really use her authority as a base leader against him, but avoiding him every day wasnât a solution either. Ye Dong was truly exasperated.
"Hmm." Ye Dong nodded coldly, then walked around him.
"Is this a live specimen of Mutated Vine?" Leo raised his voice in surprise as he looked at the transport team behind, and then spoke to Ye Dong with admiration, "Ye Dong, youâre getting more and more impressive. I have no idea when Iâll have the chance to go on a Task with you."
"Leo, please call me Captain Ye, and, please donât interfere with my work," Ye Dong said, expressionless.
Leo appeared completely oblivious to Ye Dongâs resistance and continued to smile at her in a very intimate manner in front of everyone: "Iâm not interfering, Iâm just watching and talking to you."
Ye Dongâs eyebrows knitted together, her tone harsh: "We have nothing to talk about."
"How can that be? Weâre all young people. Itâs okay if you donât like to talk, I can do the talking," Leo said shamelessly.
"Itâs you again." Suddenly, a childâs figure darted between Leo and Ye Dong. With his fair and endearing appearance, even his stern gaze couldnât make him the slightest bit off-putting.
Ye Dong, as if seeing a savior, joyfully embraced him: "Mingming, what brings you here?"
Mingmingâs eyes flicked towards Leo, then affectionately kissed Ye Dongâs face: "Uncle sent me to pick up Auntie. He said heâs afraid that Auntie might be tricked away by bad people."
Upon hearing this, the smile on Leoâs face faded a bit. Thinking of the formidable uncle of the little brat, he felt a twinge of fear. Though only a couple of months had passed, Duan Kaiâs authority had already made a deep impression on the entire base.
However, he thought to himself, Ye Dong was not related to Duan Kai in any manner. How could Duan Kai control Ye Dongâs emotions? Once he married Ye Dong, he could sit on an equal footing with Duan Kai. Why should he fear him?
But, even though Leo thought this way, he did not dare to confront Duan Kai, and since Ye Dong has never shown any softening of emotions toward him, what else could he say?
"There are no bad people." Ye Dong pinched Mingmingâs little chubby cheek, feeling somewhat relieved. She didnât need to explain herself to anyone, and with a nod to Zhao Guang, she led her team and the Mutated Vine back to the laboratory.
The laboratory is Ye Qiuâs domain and the most important place in the entire base. Except for Ye Qiu, no one is allowed to enter without permission, not even Duan Kai and Ye Dong. They must go through numerous checks.
Leo is just a Task Squad leader, not part of the baseâs management. He can only watch Ye Dongâs retreating figure with gritted teeth.
"Dongdong, if you donât like him, just reject him outright. If necessary, you can take extreme measures. If he keeps this up, it will cause you trouble," Ye Qiu said sincerely as he walked in.
Ye Dong looked troubled: "But he hasnât done anything out of line, if I really did something to him, wouldnât that draw criticism? What if others accuse me of abusing my power for personal gain?"
"Who would dare to say anything? With you and Duan Kai protecting the outside of the base, and me taking care of their food, water, and other needs inside, if they are not content, they can leave." Ye Qiu was somewhat irritable, having encountered a bottleneck in his recent experiments, and his words were less polite.
Ye Dong smiled without arguing with her sister.
"If you really canât stand it, leave it to Duan Kai to resolve. His reputation is already ruined anyway," Ye Qiu continued to suggest.
"Mmm, leave it to uncle," Mingming, the little one, added from the side.
Before, the person Mingming relied on the most was actually Ye Qiu, but after coming to the base, Ye Qiu became absorbed in his experiments and gradually less patient. Considering Duan Kai was unreliable, the task of taking care of Mingming fell on Ye Dong.
So, gradually, Mingmingâs bond with Ye Dong grew stronger. Ye Dong is only twenty this year. Even though she has experienced the apocalypse, with Ye Qiuâs company, her disposition hasnât deviated too much. As a result, her everyday life is spent playing with Mingming.
To everyoneâs delight, Mingming has gradually emerged from the shadow of leaving his father, becoming more and more like a normal child. However, this also means he has developed a certain possessiveness over Ye Dong, most evident in his extreme dislike of Leo who always hovers around Ye Dong.
He vaguely knew that his uncle was very formidable, so he would often repeat what his uncle told him to say, and it was always effective.
However, in his heart, he wished Aunt Dongdong would marry his uncle, so he could play with them forever and not worry about Aunt Dongdong being taken away by another man. If only he wasnât too young to marry Aunt Dongdong himself, he wouldnât be willing to let his uncle benefit!
But what distressed him was that his uncle was completely oblivious, unaware that he should be giving Aunt Dongdong flowers or something similar, seriously frustrating his little brain. What could he do to make Aunt Dongdong like his uncle?
Hmm... now that he thinks about it, with his uncle being so fierce, how could Aunt Dongdong possibly like him?
Useless uncle!
Mingming pouted his little mouth, feeling that tonight he must have a good talk with his uncle. If this continues, Aunt Dongdong will become someone elseâs!
