Chapter 114 - 112: Xiao Zhi, You Wouldn’t Want to Lose Your Job, Would You...

Chapter 114: Chapter 112: Xiao Zhi, You Wouldn’t Want to Lose Your Job, Would You...

The women in the kitchen had no idea what Liu Ruyun was really thinking.

But what they did know was that the noodles, which should have taken only an hour to make...

...ended up taking nearly two hours to finish!

In the end, he even made several of the women taste their own "seafood."

After having his fill of the "dishes" these women served up...

...the man finally took his leave.

The women at the dining table watched his retreating figure and let out a collective, huge sigh of relief.

The next day, Mengde took Run Tu and the others to continue reinforcing the base’s defensive "city walls."

But after their experience at the main gate yesterday, they were growing more and more proficient.

Their progress was accelerating.

The main reason things were going so smoothly was that Yulong Base hadn’t been attacked recently.

The reinforcement work proceeded without any interference.

As a result, Mengde was temporarily freed up.

After finishing the fortification work each day, he still had plenty of time to lead the women in practicing the "Standard Spear Technique."

He helped them get familiar with their Awakened Superpowers and raise their Superpower Levels.

And this wasn’t just empty talk.

He had the results to prove it.

He had been pulling the women into "spear technique" practice sessions every night.

And thanks to these efforts...

...the Goddesses who were already unlocked in his Goddess Catalogue were getting "charged" more and more frequently.

Jiayi and Aunt Cheng, who had their Awakenings early on, were on the verge of breaking through to Tier Four Superpower Levels!

Under Mengde’s guidance, they had also gone out frequently to clear zombies.

They were becoming increasingly skilled at using their various Superpowers.

Even Fei’er, who had only Awakened her Superpower a few days ago, had already broken through to Tier Three Peak.

This made many of the women who hadn’t yet Awakened Superpowers incredibly envious.

This was especially true for Liu Ruyun, the ultimate confidante and big-sister figure, who possessed an Innate Charm Saint Body!

The way she’d been looking at him lately was so intense you could practically see the threads of passion forming in her gaze.

And just as Mengde finished his share of the reinforcement work...

...her voice came crackling through the walkie-talkie.

"Mengde, come to Building Four."

"I need you for something urgent."

Ever since Mengde had handed over the base’s management to the group of beauties from Bikang...

...they had, in all seriousness, set up an entire office building.

They divided it into several departments.

A Warehouse Department, Operations Department, Communications Department, Logistics Department, and so on.

This was where they handled most of the day-to-day affairs.

Since Mengde didn’t know the first thing about management anyway...

...he just let them handle it.

With a group of such capable helpmates...

...why wouldn’t he be happy to let them?

Besides, everyone has their own specialization.

Mengde couldn’t be bothered to interfere.

All he had to do was manage the big picture, and he was set.

It made his life easier, too!

He stretched, then called Run Tu over.

"I’m leaving the rest to you guys."

"Keep a close eye on things."

Run Tu puffed out his chest and declared...

"Don’t worry, Boss. You can go."

"I’ve got this!"

Even though the guy was a bit of a simpleton...

...Mengde had observed over the past few days that he was genuinely reliable when it came to getting things done.

It put his mind at ease.

Mengde nodded and headed for Building Four.

Along the way, he was flanked by busy survivors.

When they looked at him, their eyes were filled with fervent admiration!

’Sigh.’

’Don’t be jealous. I’m just a legend!’

As he reached the entrance of Building Four, Yourong, dressed in professional attire, happened to be walking out.

Her black stockings and high heels clicked loudly on the pavement.

She had the air of a pre-apocalyptic, white-collar city worker.

Perhaps because she was in a hurry, she didn’t see Mengde as she came out.

But Mengde had no intention of letting this woman—who had been teasing him nonstop lately—get away so easily.

SLAP!

Mengde went right up and landed a firm slap!

’Heh!’

’Felt great!’

"Ah!"

Yourong looked up, a mixture of shame and anger on her face, ready to see who would be so bold.

But when she saw it was him...

...all her anger vanished in an instant!

"Hmph! You’re bullying me! I’m going to tell Aoxue!"

With that, her face bright red, she quickly scurried away.

If she didn’t leave now, the man would probably tease her even more.

"Tch!"

’What’s the use of telling her? I’ll just bully both of you together!’

Walking into Building Four, Mengde headed straight for the Warehouse Department.

As one of his women, Liu Ruyun was the manager of the base’s Warehouse Department.

Besides her, he’d heard that Jiayi, Fei’er, and Aoxue also held leadership positions in Building Four.

As for the "staff," that was, of course, the beauties from Bikang.

Of course, this was a gross underutilization of their talents.

But the women seemed to be thoroughly enjoying themselves.

They were all workaholics, and their only source of daily amusement was teasing him.

’Poor me!’

The moment he walked in, they all greeted him enthusiastically.

"Well, if it isn’t Meng God himself. What brings you to our humble Warehouse Department?"

"Go on, tell us. Which one of us have you set your sights on?"

"Any of us are available, you know."

"That’s right. I’ve been ’studying’ with my ’teachers’ a lot."

"I know all sorts of things."

"Oh, forget it. I bet Brother Meng just crawled out of Fei’er’s bed."

"So right now, he’s probably... hehe..."

"..."

The Warehouse Department was in charge of managing the base’s supplies, so it had a relatively large number of women.

Right now, this flock of beauties was teasing Mengde one after another.

Listening to them, Mengde’s expression darkened.

’A bunch of wild women with no brakes...’

’When they start telling dirty jokes, they’re even more outrageous than I am.’

He used the same greeting method he’d used on Yourong.

He went up and gave each of them a few slaps, and only then did the group of beauties finally settle down.

They scurried back to their workstations with their tails between their legs.

’A bunch of little minxes, daring to provoke me?’

’They don’t know their own limits!’

Mengde strode smugly into the innermost room.

A plaque on the door read "Warehouse Department Manager."

’Heh! This looks pretty official!’

Mengde chuckled and walked inside.

The room wasn’t large. It was simply decorated, with white as the main color, giving it a clean and elegant look.

At a mahogany desk in the far corner of the room.

Liu Ruyun, dressed in a black business suit and wearing a pair of rimless glasses, was bent over her desk, writing.

Hearing the door open, she spoke without looking up.

"Just a moment, I’m almost finished!"

Mengde smiled. ’She’s quite serious about her work.’

But he didn’t disturb her.
