Urban Super Soldier King
Chapter 1957 - 2058: Preparing to Start a New Mission
Two days passed, and Sun City returned to its usual calm.
In the morning, Xiang Yu and Tie Zhuzi strolled down the street after breakfast. People around them greeted Xiang Yu enthusiastically, and Xiang Yu responded with a bright smile.
Xiang Yu stretched lazily and said with a chuckle, "It’s nice weather, and I suddenly had an idea."
"What idea?" Tie Zhuzi asked curiously.
He knew that Xiang Yu was putting on a facade because Eck’s death had hit him hard.
"We should build some entertainment facilities; it’s too boring like this every day," Xiang Yu said.
"Agreed, totally agree." Tie Zhuzi’s eyes lit up and quickly said, "Being here with nothing to do every day is driving me nuts. Brother Yu, why don’t you go find Sister Long Wu now."
"No need to look," Long Wu said seriously as she approached from behind. "What lousy idea have you come up with."
Xiang Yu: "..."
"I’m telling you all, I don’t care about other places, but we can’t have the kind of entertainment venues you’re talking about in Sun City," Long Wu said coldly.
"Just a casual suggestion. Of course, you’re in charge of the city’s development, so I’ll leave it to you," Xiang Yu said with an awkward smile.
Tie Zhuzi also coughed and said, "I just remembered there’s something else I haven’t done."
He hurried off after speaking, feeling quite depressed, realizing the idea of building entertainment venues in Sun City was shot down.
Long Wu moved forward, looking at Xiang Yu with concern and said, "You need to think openly, don’t be too upset."
"Do I look upset to you?" Xiang Yu laughed heartily as he spoke.
Long Wu knew Xiang Yu well; she tapped him lightly and said, "Stop pretending, don’t I know you well enough yet."
Xiang Yu chuckled and slowly walked forward.
"Now that Sun City has developed, what are your plans next?" Long Wu asked.
"I might leave for a while recently, leave the city’s development to you, and consult with Tie Zhuzi if there are any difficulties," Xiang Yu said seriously.
"You’re leaving?" Long Wu asked anxiously.
"It won’t be too long."
"Why don’t you take Tie Zhuzi with you? It’s better to have each other’s back when you’re together."
"This is something I have to do myself."
"Xiang Yu," Long Wu stepped forward and grabbed Xiang Yu’s arm, "don’t push yourself too hard."
"I know, rest assured, I need to make a trip back to Huaxia," Xiang Yu said.
Hearing that Xiang Yu was going back to Huaxia, Long Wu felt much more reassured. After all, that was their hometown, and Xiang Yu was familiar with the environment there, not to mention the presence of Sun Bo and others.
Sun Bo, although a businessman, was very influential, with many high-ranking officials giving him face.
"Why haven’t I seen Xiao Xuan recently, what’s he busy with?" Long Wu asked puzzledly.
"There’s a task he was assigned to do, he probably won’t be back anytime soon," Xiang Yu said.
"Tasks here and there, can’t you take a few good days off? Where are all these tasks coming from? The Earth won’t stop spinning without anyone," Long Wu said, a bit angrily.
In her impression, ever since she met Xiang Yu, he had always been busy, and all the things he did were quite dangerous.
"After this is all over, I should be able to take a nice long vacation," Xiang Yu said.
"Really?"
"Really."
Long Wu’s expression improved significantly and she said, "Then you go ahead and finish what you need to do. After it’s done, we’ll work together to develop Sun City well."
Long Wu and Xiang Yu took another casual stroll, but her phone rang, it was an issue at the construction site.
Ending the call, Long Wu looked at Xiang Yu, "I’m leaving first, take care of yourself."
Xiang Yu nodded without saying much, watching Long Wu leave, he sighed, the road ahead was still long, with many things waiting for him to accomplish.
On Xiao Xuan’s side, there wouldn’t be results in a short time, he must wait until Su Yongzhen is discharged and then infiltrate the God of Killing to proceed with the next operation.
The situation within Sun City had completely stabilized, and the City Guard Army and self-defense forces were more united.
But ever since the incident with Eck, many in the self-defense forces had left; these were Eck’s former trusted aides, and they didn’t want to stay here.
Xiang Yu didn’t make it difficult for them and even gave them some money to leave.
Now, Tie Zhuzi was in command of the two armies, with Jieke as Tie Zhuzi’s deputy.
Tie Zhuzi usually appeared clumsy, but he’s anything but foolish; after following Xiang Yu for so long, he’s become quite shrewd.
Jieke, with a simple character, was born in a slum, having deep affection for the place and admires Xiang Yu, fully committed to making the city strong.
With him as Tie Zhuzi’s deputy, Xiang Yu was quite reassured.
With things as they were, Xiang Yu had no more worries and could go about his business without concerns.
As Xiang Yu walked down the street, his phone rang, it was Wang Qian calling.
"You miss me again, huh," Xiang Yu said with a smile.
"Yeah, a day without calling you feels like something’s missing," Wang Qian said charmingly.
"Go ahead, what’s the matter?"
"Missing you, why don’t you come over?"
Upon hearing this, Xiang Yu shivered all over. With their deepening collaboration, they had become more familiar, often joking like this.
"Okay, enough joking, what’s up?" Xiang Yu asked.
Wang Qian giggled, "What’s the matter, can’t take it?"
"Yeah, you’re cuter when you’re normal."
After some playful banter, Wang Qian got serious, "Time is pressing, you should be setting off."
Xiang Yu understood what she meant, and replied, "Alright, I’m heading to your place now."
Wang Qian didn’t expect Xiang Yu to agree so readily and happily said, "Alright, I’ll be waiting for you."
After hanging up, Xiang Yu thought for a moment and then called a car to head for Wolf Fang’s base.
Arriving at Wang Qian’s office, Xiang Yu lounged lazily on the sofa.
Sitting across from him, Wang Qian joked, "Where’s your tagalong today?"
"He’s busy," Xiang Yu casually replied, "I’m all set for leaving for Huaxia in the coming days."
Wang Qian nodded happily, but soon her face turned serious, and she looked at Xiang Yu earnestly, "This mission is very dangerous, make sure to be careful."
"With you guys backing me up, I’ve got nothing to worry about," Xiang Yu smiled.
Understanding Xiang Yu’s point, Wang Qian earnestly said, "We’re your strong support, but I need to remind you."
After thinking for a moment, Wang Qian said, "It’s best not to get caught; you’re aware that our group is built on interests, and if you get caught, I’m afraid they wouldn’t take action to rescue you."
"I know," Xiang Yu looked at Wang Qian appreciatively.
"Is there anything else you want to relay? As long as I can help, just say the word," Wang Qian said.
"I’m not going to my execution, no need to make it sound so solemn, okay?" Xiang Yu said nonchalantly.
Shaking her head with a smile, Wang Qian thought, while it’s not an execution, the level of danger wasn’t much less either...
