Chapter 331: The Big Treasure

Mo Jingchun really wanted to say, "Uncle, listen to me, actually, I don’t want to take Zhou Yaling with me."

But seeing his uncle’s expression, Mo Jingchun forced a smile and thought better of it.

Compared to Zhou Yaling, the troublemaker, Mo Jingchun thought it was better not to go against his uncle.

"When are you going?"

"Probably tomorrow or the day after."

"Alright, don’t worry about the company."

"I’ll tell your aunt to go back first, I’ll keep an eye on the company here, and go back home on New Year’s Eve."

"Okay, thank you, uncle."

A gust of cold wind blew, and the little one instinctively tugged at the hood of his down jacket and huddled up.

Zhou Yaling saw Mo Jingchun coming out of the monitoring room and couldn’t wait to ask about the result.

But seeing the indifferent look on the old man’s face, her outstretched foot pulled back.

Mo Jingchun glanced at Zhou Yaling, picked up the little one, and walked towards the car parked not far away.

"Bro, what’s the word? Did my old man agree or not?"

"Brother, say something."

"Are you trying to kill me with suspense?"

The little one, leaning on his brother’s shoulder, watched his sister running behind them and giggled.

With a thud, Zhou Yaling, who barely managed to sit in the back seat, bumped her head on the car door because she was in too much of a hurry.

Mo Jingchun stifled a laugh with great effort.

But the little one couldn’t care less, holding onto Zhou Yaling and laughing out loud.

With the little one laughing, Mo Jingchun couldn’t hold it back for a moment and chuckled.

Seeing Zhou Yaling about to cry from grievance, Mo Jingchun quickly said:

"Alright, stop teasing you, uncle agreed to let you go."

"But uncle said you must follow my arrangements, otherwise..."

"Otherwise what?" Zhou Yaling rubbed the big lump on her head.

"Hehe, otherwise, uncle will smack you when you come back!"

Zhou Yaling let out a sigh of relief, thinking it was something serious.

It’s just following arrangements.

That requirement is too easy.

"Bro, when do we leave?"

Mo Jingchun thought for a moment and said, "Let’s go tomorrow. I’ve already asked Hanna to pack the luggage today."

At night, after arranging the protection plan for tomorrow’s trip, Wild Wolf drove back to the company campus with Lone Wolf.

In front of the laboratory building, the vigilant security personnel weren’t sure why Wild Wolf was bringing someone here in the middle of the night.

Out of caution, he stopped them.

"Hello, comrade, please show Mr. Mo’s signed pass."

"There’s a rule at the laboratory building that after eight in the evening, no one is allowed in without permission."

"I’m looking for your captain."

"This..."

"Wait here for a moment."

"Captain, captain."

"Speak."

"Wild Wolf is looking for you, right outside."

"Got it, I’ll be right out."

A moment later, Wang Bing, holding a walkie-talkie, walked out from the first-floor lobby of the laboratory building.

Wang Bing frowned and looked at Wild Wolf, asking, "Aren’t you supposed to be protecting Mr. Mo?"

"What are you doing here so late?"

Wild Wolf glanced around, and seeing no one nearby, leaned in to whisper a few words to Wang Bing.

As soon as he finished speaking, Wang Bing jumped up excitedly.

"Impossible!"

"That’s absolutely impossible!"

Their special unit’s precious treasure is meant for deterrence, it’s their strongest backing to guard this laboratory building.

He treasures this rocket launcher dearly, maintaining it daily.

And now you’re saying you want to borrow it for a bit.

How could that be possible!

Wang Bing firmly refused Wild Wolf’s request.

Even though everyone’s mission is to protect.

But the protection targets are not the same.

Their task is to protect Mo Jingchun within the campus area, and also to safeguard the laboratory building from external intrusion and national secrets theft.

Without the rocket launcher, what if someone forcibly invades with heavy firepower?

Besides, can you just borrow a rocket launcher like that?

Not to mention a rocket launcher, even a bullet.

Unless there’s an order from higher-ups, otherwise, don’t even think about getting a bullet under non-special circumstances.

"Wild Wolf, there’s a record for these items, I can’t just lend them to you."

"How about this, as long as Director Qin sends me the order, I, Wang Bing, won’t hesitate and will hand it to you straight away, how about that?"

The next second, Wild Wolf took something out.

"This is a copy, the original should reach you in the next few days, you can confirm it with Director Qin."

Looking at the document, Wang Bing’s face turned dark.

To them, a rocket launcher is not just treasure; to them, weapons are like their "wives."

This document seems legit, but...

"Hello, Director Qin..."

A few minutes later, Wang Bing came out with a big backpack, smiling.

"Here you go."

Wild Wolf was a bit surprised, why was he so happy?

"Hehe, Director Qin said they’ll outfit us with more advanced new ’wives’."

No wonder!

Watching Wild Wolf leave with the rocket launcher on his back, Wang Bing shook his head.

They probably won’t even use this rocket launcher.

Taking it is just for peace of mind, just in case.

If they lose a shell, they can just make more, and there will always be plenty.

But if they lose one of their hard-to-come-by talents, it’s not something easily replaced.

"Are you sure?" Receiving a call in the middle of the night, Deng Lijie thought something big had happened.

After all, under normal circumstances, people wouldn’t disturb his rest this late.

"This... Hanna, that girl wouldn’t joke with me about something this big."

Taking a deep breath, "Are you sure Hanna is an employee of Candy Technology?"

"Leader, I’m quite certain about that."

"Alright! Got it."

"I’ll let you know once there’s a plan."

Hanging up, Deng Lijie clenched his fists, furrowing his brows.

A few minutes later, "Leader, it’s like this..."

That night, before Mo Jingchun even set out with his people, he was still asleep.

Many people had already heard the news.

In an underground base somewhere, Qin Yuzhu, who’d just been woken up, looked at the freshly-delivered intelligence and rubbed her temples.

Candy Technology is now a hot commodity; building a factory anywhere brings a lot of tax revenue.

"Oh well, let them be."

"If they can attract investment, that’s their capability."

As for providing assistance? Qin Yuzhu shook her head.

There was already an internal red line established that no one should interfere with Mo Jingchun’s development path for Candy Technology.

The next day, the sleep-deprived Hanna woke up early in the morning.

It wasn’t until Sister Xia informed her that the boss wanted her to gather at the canteen entrance with her luggage that she breathed a sigh of relief.

With so much at stake, if the boss suddenly changed his mind about going.

She’d really be in trouble then.

As Hanna came out of the dormitory building with her luggage, she realized everyone else was already there, waiting only for her.

Xia Xiaomin smiled at Hanna, who was running over:

"Go to the last car, we’ve been waiting for you."

"Ah, okay, okay."

The convoy consisted of five cars.

Xia Xiaomin opened the door of the front passenger seat, fastened her seat belt, and turned to the boss in the back:

"Boss, everyone’s here."
