Chapter 213 Meeting between the two parties

A middle-aged man standing behind the old man, seeing that the old man still didn't speak, hurried forward, leaned over slightly, and whispered a reminder.

The old man came back to his senses, a slightly apologetic look appeared on his face, and he slowly said: "What you said really shocked me. I'm afraid I need some time to digest it."

Then he said, "I am Admiral Xiao Jingyue of China. Young man, would it be convenient for me to visit your ship?"

Lin Yao couldn't help but hesitate when he heard this. After all, his ship was hiding too many secrets. If the other party asked about the origin of the ship, how would he explain it?

What should I do if they ask me some other key questions?

However, in a flash, he suddenly understood.

Now that we are in the end times, the situation is different from the past. I have the army, equipment, and a mysterious space. There is really nothing to worry about.

Therefore, Lin Yao made a prompt decision and ordered to quickly build a temporary bridge between the aircraft carrier and the cruise ship.

Soon, the bridge was built, and Xiao Jingyue led more than a dozen people to board Lin Yao's cruise ship.

Except for the personnel on duty and Xie Ziang, Jia Dalin and others, Lin Yao ordered the rest of the troops to evacuate temporarily.

Lin Yao received everyone in the cafe on the first floor of the Pearl.

As soon as they stepped into the cafe, everyone was amazed by the environment.

As soon as they sat down, Lin Yao asked enthusiastically: "General Xiao, what would you like to drink? Coffee, tea, or wine?"

Xiao Jingyue was slightly stunned, then he smiled kindly and said, "Boiled water will do."

Not long after, several cups of warm water were brought up. For a moment, the atmosphere was a little awkward.

At this time, Lin Hao stood up, took out a pack of cigarettes from his pocket and passed them to everyone one by one.

Everyone looked at each other in bewilderment. How could they dare to take over without the leader's order?

Although he was extremely eager for the cigarette and wanted to take it and take a deep puff immediately, this was the quality of Chinese soldiers, and the sense of discipline had long been deeply ingrained in their hearts.

Lin Yao keenly caught the subtle changes in Xiao Jingyue's expression, and read a trace of struggle in his eyes, so he hurriedly said: "General Xiao, at this special moment, there is no need to be too formal."

Xiao Jingyue then took the cigarette, and Lin Yao lit it for him personally. Then he turned to the waiter next to him and said, "Go make some more pots of good tea."

Seeing this, Xiao Jingyue burst into a hearty laugh, and his favorability towards Lin Yao instantly increased. The originally awkward atmosphere between the two sides gradually dissipated.

Then, both sides started talking.

Lin Yao briefly told the other party about their general experiences since the end of the world. Of course, he did not mention a word about the key links.

Xiao Jingyue was also a very sensible person and did not ask any further questions.

Anyone who can sit in his position must be smart and intelligent.

Through the conversation, Lin Yao learned that Xiao Jingyue had led his team to garrison on this aircraft carrier since the beginning of the apocalypse.

They had a hard time on the aircraft carrier throughout the extreme cold period, and it goes without saying how harsh the environment was.

After the extreme cold, they planned to cruise again and then return to the base, but they did not expect to encounter aircraft carriers from the United States and the Maple Leaf Country.

Fortunately, Lin Yao and others appeared in time to rescue them, allowing them to escape the disaster. Otherwise, they would have died here today.

At the same time, Lin Hao and others also started chatting enthusiastically with the group of people that Xiao Jingyue brought on board.

The entire cafe was filled with smoke, and tea was served pot after pot.

At some point, someone's stomach made a growling sound.

Lin Yao keenly caught this detail and quickly asked, "Have you not eaten yet?"

Xiao Jingyue was a little embarrassed, and said frankly: "To be honest, we are running out of supplies. We can only eat one meal a day now, just to maintain basic life needs."

Upon hearing this, Lin Yao immediately ordered Li Feifan to prepare meals. He also inquired in detail about the number of people on the aircraft carrier, intending to send food to them all.

Hearing Lin Yao's arrangement, Xiao Jingyue quickly waved his hand and said, "No, no, given the current situation, I'm sure everyone's supplies are very scarce, and we can't occupy your supplies at this time."

Lin Yao hurriedly said, "Please don't be polite to us, we can still afford this amount of supplies."

After saying that, he urged Li Feifan to handle it quickly.

Seeing Lin Yao's firm attitude, Xiao Jingyue stopped trying to stop him. He was indeed eager to have a bite of hot food.

Not long after, Li Feifan came to tell Lin Yao that the meal was ready.

Xiao Jingyue couldn't help but marvel at Li Feifan's efficiency. Lin Yao smiled and introduced him, "I forgot to introduce him to you. He is one of the persons in charge of our base. He manages most of the affairs of tens of thousands of people in our base."

Afterwards, Lin Yao introduced Xiao Jingyue's identity to Li Feifan. Li Feifan hurriedly greeted Xiao Jingyue respectfully, and Xiao Jingyue was quite amazed at the fact that the base mentioned by Lin Yao had tens of thousands of people.

Afterwards, Lin Yao brought Xiao Jingyue and others to the restaurant of the Mingzhu.

Xiao Jingyue thought it was just a simple meal, but when he saw the table filled with braised pork, Kung Pao chicken, twice-cooked pork, Mapo tofu, fish-flavored pork shreds, shredded potatoes, shredded cabbage, West Lake beef soup, and the steaming white rice with an enticing aroma, he was stunned for a moment.

Lin Yao signaled Xie Ziang and others to ask everyone to take a seat, and then he, Lin Xiao and others took Xiao Jingyue into the restaurant's private room.

The dishes in the box were the same as those outside. As he smelled the fragrant food, Xiao Jingyue's stomach couldn't help but make a rumbling sound.

After receiving the food sent by Lin Yao and his team, everyone on the Chinese aircraft carrier was so excited that they almost cried.

Li Feifan knew that the normal amount might not be enough for everyone, so he prepared three portions for each person.

After entering the box, everyone sat down. Lin Yao and his friends had already had lunch, but in order to avoid embarrassing Xiao Jingyue, they also ate some with him.

The food on the table was quickly eaten up.

After Xiao Jingyue finished eating, he let out a long sigh of relief and said to everyone with a hint of apology: "I'm sorry to have embarrassed you. I haven't eaten such delicious food for a long time."

At this time, Lin Xiao handed over a cigarette and helped Xiao Jingyue light it.

Xiao Jingyue looked at Lin Xiao, his lips moving slightly, as if he wanted to ask something, but he hesitated.

Seeing this, Lin Xiao said, "General Xiao, if you have anything to say, feel free to say it."

Xiao Jingyue paused for a moment, then asked hesitantly, "Child, are your parents with you?"

Lin Xiao originally thought that Xiao Jingyue wanted to ask about something important, but he didn't expect it to be such a question.

Lin Xiao answered frankly: "I grew up in an orphanage, as did A Yao and Xiao Hao. The three of us spent our childhood in an orphanage."

When Xiao Jingyue heard Lin Xiao’s answer, his breathing suddenly stagnated, a trace of sadness appeared in his expression, and he slowly said: “You look very similar to my son in your eyebrows and eyes, and your face shape is very similar to my daughter-in-law.

Many years ago, the couple died while performing a mission, and their infant grandson has been missing ever since."

After hearing what Xiao Jingyue said, Lin Xiao just sighed.

Lin Yao looked at the two people sitting together, and his heart skipped a beat. He found that Lin Xiao and Xiao Jingyue actually had some similarities in their eyebrows and eyes.

A bold idea lingered in his mind...
