Rebirth after the apocalypse: I create a new world with space!
Chapter 1382 Happy or Not
The windows of each household also emitted warm light, and the tiny dots of light gathered together, like a dazzling sea of stars flickering and swaying in the base.
These lights not only illuminate the darkness, but also herald the arrival of a new day.
As everyone stood up, the sound of tables and chairs being moved echoed in the silent space.
The light was dim, shining on everyone's slightly haggard faces. The long discussion and decision-making had consumed a lot of everyone's energy.
However, there was no trace of retreat or fear in their eyes.
They all know that every new day will bring new challenges, and they are fully prepared to face all the unknowns in this end of the world.
After the meeting, Li Luo stood up from the conference table and prepared to say goodbye to the leaders.
At this moment, Fang Xiong quickly stood up with a look of guilt on his face, walked around the conference table, and took a few steps towards Li Luo.
The guilt and apology in his eyes seemed to overflow, and he said:
"Xiao Li, you just came back from a life-threatening situation outside, and you haven't even had time to catch your breath, but we hurriedly dragged you into this extremely long meeting. I really feel bad for you. Go back and relax, and leave all the follow-up matters to us old guys. You have already done your best for the base and for everyone, and you have paid too much."
He Yewei then stood up from his seat, strode forward, stretched out his strong hand and gently patted Li Luo's shoulder, and said solemnly and earnestly:
"Girl Li, what Old Fang said makes sense. You should take a good rest. We have all seen and remembered the bravery and perseverance you displayed during your mission. The next action is certainly crucial, but you must not exhaust yourself."
The other old leaders also nodded in appreciation, and their concerned and loving eyes were cast on Li Luo like the warm sunshine.
Li Luo shook his head slightly, with a faint but firm smile on his face, his eyes sparkling with incomparable determination:
"Uncle Fang, Uncle He, and all the leaders, I'm really fine. I'm doing fine. There's no need to worry. Besides, I'm a member of the big family of Jinling Base. Isn't it my job to do these things?"
These are indeed Li Luo's heartfelt words.
She has long regarded the Jinling base as her home, where she has found a sense of belonging and mission.
What's more, the greater the ability, the greater the responsibility, and the more capable you are, the more work you should do. How could she back down at this critical moment?
After talking with the leaders for a few more words, Li Luo and Lu Jingcheng left the meeting room together.
The old leaders stood quietly in their places, following the two men's departing figures.
Fang Xiong sighed slightly and said with emotion:
"It seems that the world will really be dominated by young people in the future. They are full of endless energy and courage to move forward, which are all things that we old guys don't have."
He Yewei immediately responded, "That's right. The future of this world depends on them! They have both smart minds and extraordinary courage. They will definitely be able to open up a brand new and prosperous road."
Another senior leader echoed: "Although we are old, we must not slack off in the slightest. We must guard our posts well and build a solid backing for them so that they can charge forward without any scruples."
Everyone nodded in agreement, their eyes filled with expectations and high hopes for young people, as well as determination and perseverance to stick to their own posts.
.........
After stepping out of the door of the official office, Li Luo and Lu Jingcheng walked slowly towards home together.
The two people who had not walked together for a long time were now walking side by side. An indescribable subtle atmosphere quietly spread between them.
Lu Jingcheng was the first to break the silence. He slowly stretched out his hand and gently held Li Luo's face.
His gaze was like a deep pool, moving and examining her eyebrows and eyes, as if he wanted to integrate all the longing and concern for her over the past few days of separation into this affectionate gaze.
Then he lowered his head slightly, touched Li Luo's forehead with his lips, and gave her a gentle and affectionate kiss.
A charming blush instantly appeared on Li Luo's cheeks, like the clouds in the sky, and her eyes were filled with sweetness and happiness.
"Oh, there are people everywhere on the street. It would be so embarrassing if we were seen!" Li Luo blamed coquettishly, but there was no annoyance in her tone.
Lu Jingcheng raised the corner of his mouth, revealing a doting smile. He reached out and took Li Luo's hand, shaking it gently:
"I haven't seen you for a long time. I can't hold back my excitement."
The two of them strolled leisurely, enjoying this rare warmth and sweetness while chatting casually.
At this moment, Li Luo pretended to be angry and frowned. He stopped, folded his hands in front of his chest, stared straight at Lu Jingcheng and said:
"Okay, tell me. Why did you hide the escort mission from me?"
The smile on Lu Jingcheng's face froze slightly. He scratched his head a little embarrassedly, with a hint of flattery and sincerity in his eyes:
"Lolo, I really didn't mean to hide it from you. Your trip was so dangerous this time, and you had to take care of the safety of so many survivors. I was afraid that these extra things would distract you and affect your ability to deal with danger, so I wanted to wait until you returned safely, and then explain everything to you in person."
Li Luo pouted slightly, thought for a while and then said:
"Well, I'll forgive you this time, but don't do this again in the future. You are absolutely not allowed to hide anything from me!"
Lu Jingcheng nodded like a chick pecking at rice, looking like a loyal wolfhound:
"Okay! There won't be a next time, I promise!"
Li Luo looked at Lu Jingcheng with satisfaction, and suddenly asked, "By the way, Cheng, are you happy?"
Lu Jingcheng was stunned for a moment, with a look of confusion on his face: "What are you happy about?"
Li Luo rolled his eyes at him and continued, "You can go to the Youzhou base now! Aren't all your relatives there?"
When Lu Jingcheng heard this, the corners of his mouth slowly rose, a gratified smile appeared on his face, and he nodded slightly:
"Well, I am really happy. After all, I haven't seen them for such a long time. I don't know how they are doing now."
But soon, his smile faded and he sighed softly.
Seeing him like this, Li Luo couldn't help but frown and asked in confusion:
"What does this mean? Why are you sighing all of a sudden?"
