Seeing the contractor nodding his head in a hurry, Hua Mi had just turned to leave.
The contractor immediately pointed to the shiny diamond toy car at his feet and said,
"Miss Hua, Miss Hua, if I take this diamond toy car back and get the technicians to fit an engine and add four wheels, it’ll be great for your brother and sister to play with."
Hua Mi imagined the bling bling sparkling image.
She hesitated as she looked at the contractor, initially wanting to decline his kindness politely.
But seeing the expectant look on his face, Hua Mi still nodded her head with difficulty.
Well, in the subordinate relationship between her and the contractor, she always felt it was Hua Mi accommodating him.
The things the contractor did often left one at a loss for words.
What could be done about it? Every time Hua Mi saw the contractor, she saw his earnest effort, his all-out attempts to please her.
Hua Mi could only try her best to cooperate, pretending to be flattered by his attentions.
Back in the nanny van,
Lin Zhigang had already stepped out.
Not wanting to disturb Gong Yi and his family’s reunion, he stayed outside with the Garrison members.
Lin Zhigang was constantly on the phone with his father, his anxious emotions making him afraid he wouldn’t be able to control himself.
And Hua Mi, after stepping into the nanny van, before she even began to speak, saw Gong Yi carefully measuring formula with a scoop.
He then solemnly poured the formula into the bottle,
The two babies in the bed were humming and chirping, clearly hungry.
Watching Gong Yi skillfully prepare the bottle, he tested the milk’s temperature by dropping it on the back of his hand, then turned around and naturally picked up his sister.
He fed her the formula first.
As for his brother, there was no need to ask. With Gong Yi, because the boy was a male, in his words, "Boys should toughen up, go hungry a bit longer, to carry greater responsibilities later on."
Seeing Hua Mi get on the van, Gong Yi, while feeding his sister milk, asked,
"How come you ended up in Xiang City North? Are you planning to leave the city for E City?"
Xiang City North and E City, one to the north, the other to the south.
If Hua Mi planned to go to E City, she would have to bypass the entire Xiang City Base.
Indirectly, this increased the danger considerably.
Gong Yi looked at Hua Mi with disapproval, certainly not willing to allow Hua Mi, at this time, to take his two children on a treacherous journey to E City.
Hua Mi laughed haughtily,
"Impossible, impossible, I’m just bringing brother and sister to see their dad."
"How could I possibly go to a dangerous place like E City? Don’t worry."
Saying this, Gong Yi’s expression eased a little, but he was still full of concern for Hua Mi.
Then, looking affectionately at the sister in his arms who was eagerly feeding, Gong Yi said softly, tenderly,
"Look how cute sister is. You and the two kids staying here with me would be nice too."
"Later, let’s have President Bao build a simple and unadorned diamond house for you three."
"You can live in that diamond house."
He spoke in hushed tones, as if afraid of disturbing his daughter’s feeding.
Hua Mi looked speechless, finding it hard to imagine how a man usually as tough as a military hardman could become so exceedingly careful when facing his daughter.
Such a huge contrast.
When Gong Yi finally finished feeding his sister and moved on to feed his brother, his expression was slightly less tender.
He looked particularly stern, his eyebrows knit into a faint frown.
In Gong Yi’s words, boys should not be spoiled too much.
They needed to grow up tough because his son would join the Garrison.
While Gong Yi was feeding the kids, Hua Mi got out of the van, found Lin Zhigang in the corner, grabbed him by the collar, and dragged him toward the nearby public restroom.
Gong Yi’s spiritual power didn’t extend into restrooms or bath areas...
Before Lin Zhigang could even speak, Hua Mi dropped a piece of Black Land at the restroom entrance and, with Lin Zhigang, teleported to D City.
The only teleportation point from Xiang City Base that was currently accessible was D City.
Lin Zhigang looked around in amazement at the change in surroundings.
He turned to Hua Mi and asked,
"Miss Hua, what’s going on?"
Hua Mi shoved a bulging backpack into Lin Zhigang’s hands,
She sat down on the ground, put on a pair of boots, and quickly said to Lin Zhigang,
