Chapter 243 Enemies Reunited

Several people walked towards the hall where they had registered before.

The originally noisy and bustling hall suddenly became quiet within a few breaths after they stepped in. Everyone turned their eyes to the six people, their eyes full of curiosity and scrutiny.

Along the way, they had long been accustomed to such attention, and at this moment, the expressions on the faces of the six people were still calm and composed, as if all this was within their expectations. This was exactly the effect Lin Yao wanted - to stun the audience as soon as he appeared.

Lin Yao looked around the hall with sharp eyes, and soon saw Zhang Jun, Hou Tianyu and Li Zhenhua talking happily, so he led everyone to walk straight towards them. The crowd seemed to be separated by an invisible force, and they all made way.

There were other members who came to Li Zhenhua’s base in Henan Province, and they lived in dormitories arranged by the authorities.

Li Zhenhua went early to do the preparations for the report with them, so he was unable to see Lin Xiao and Lin Yao's current attire.

When he saw those people, Li Zhenhua's eyes lit up.

Looking at Lin Xiao and Lin Yao with their full aura, he felt vaguely that they were completely different from the two people he had been with in the past few days.

He secretly sighed in his heart, no wonder they were able to manage such a large private base at such a young age, and his admiration for the two of them increased a little more.

Zhang Jun and Hou Tianyu seemed to have discovered a rare treasure. They circled around Lin Xiao and the others, looking them up and down. Seeing this, Lin Yao grabbed the two of them and said in a feigned anger, "It's never going to end, is it?"

Zhang Jun smiled and said flatteringly, "You guys are so handsome, Brother Yao. Do you have any suits left? I want one, too."

As he spoke, he pointed at his clothes and said helplessly: "Look at my clothes, they are the most formal ones I can find."

Lin Yao looked down and saw that Zhang Jun was wearing a plaid shirt with a pair of black trousers. Although he had a handsome face and a tall figure, this outfit was really ordinary, and it was all thanks to Zhang Jun's own conditions that he looked so good.

Lin Yao sighed helplessly and said, "Let's go."

Afterwards, Lin Yao took Zhang Jun, Wang Bo and Xie Ziang to an empty corner.

He looked around cautiously, and after making sure that no one was paying attention, he took Zhang Jun into the space, picked out a suit for him, and then came out together.

The suit that Lin Yao chose for Zhang Jun was not exaggerated, but it perfectly modified his figure.

After putting on a suit, Zhang Jun's whole temperament changed instantly. He looked more mature and stable, no longer as childish as before.

When Lin Yao came back with Zhang Jun who had changed his clothes, Hou Tianyu's eyes were instantly attracted, as if they were glued to Zhang Jun.

Lin Xiao couldn't help but joked, "Tsk tsk tsk, look at your eyes, they're almost threadbare. Do you still remember what you're here for?"

Hou Tianyu still stared at Zhang Jun intently, and hurriedly replied to Lin Xiao's words: "I remember, I remember. Oh, so handsome, so good-looking."

Zhang Jun walked up to Hou Tianyu, turned around playfully, and asked with a smile: "Does it look good?"

Hou Tianyu's eyes were full of love, and he quickly nodded and said, "It looks good, it looks good on you."

Lin Yao and Lin Xiao looked at each other, and their eyes seemed to be saying, "There's something going on with these two."

After a while, they heard the staff notifying them to come in. Under the guidance of the staff, everyone walked towards the conference hall in an orderly manner.

Although the facilities in the entire conference hall are relatively simple, they are arranged in a solemn and dignified manner, which makes people feel awe unconsciously.

After Lin Yao and others found the location marked with the sign "Peninsula Base", they sat down.

After everyone was seated, the host walked onto the stage. After a brief opening speech, the host loudly welcomed the Chinese senior leaders to enter.

Xiao Jingyue and Li Congrong were wearing neat military uniforms, and the insignia on their shoulder straps showed their noble status. They walked in with a serious expression and steady steps, following the crowd.

In addition to Xiao Jingyue and Li Congrong, Lin Yao also saw a familiar face - Zhao Zhengang, the head of Base No. 0 who had previously clashed with them in Jing City.

Lin Yao was secretly surprised. He didn't expect that after such a big incident, he had not received any punishment and was even currently among the leaders. It seemed that Zhao Zhenggang did have a strong backer.

Zhao Zhengang glanced ahead and did not notice the arrival of Lin Yao and his companions.

Except Shen Zhaoning, everyone else recognized Zhao Zhengang.

Shen Zhaoning noticed the strange expressions on everyone's faces and looked puzzled.

Lin Yao pointed in the direction of Zhao Zhengang and whispered to Shen Zhaoning, "We had a little conflict with him before, but you don't have to be nervous, just report normally."

Shen Zhaoning nodded slightly.

Lin Yaoze thought silently in his heart, hoping that Zhao Zhengang would not cause any trouble today, otherwise he would have no choice but to disregard his feelings and confront him head-on.

Lin Xiao leaned close to Lin Yao's ear and whispered, "Do you need me to find a chance to tell Grandpa and Grandpa about this?"

Lin Yao thought for a moment and said, "Let's see what happens. If there is a suitable opportunity, let them know. If there is no opportunity, forget it."

Lin Xiao nodded slightly to show that he understood.

Soon, the report and defense session officially began.

The reporters from each base took the stage in turn and first gave a detailed introduction to the situation of their base, including who the base commander was, who the main person in charge was, the work experience of these persons in charge before the natural disaster, the current number of people in the base, the city occupied, the current development status, and future development plans, etc.

After the introduction, it is the turn of the leaders in the audience to ask questions, and the reporter needs to answer on the spot.

Some bases were clearly well prepared and answered leaders' questions fluently; while some bases were exaggerating and were left speechless after just a few words, making the situation a little awkward.

There were more than 70 bases that applied for registration this time, but the Peninsula Base had not yet come for the turn after a whole morning.

At noon, the authorities did not arrange lunch, apparently intending to complete the reporting process for all bases in one go.

Throughout the morning, Lin Xiao hadn't found a suitable opportunity to mention the previous friction with Zhao Zhengang to Xiao Jingyue and Li Congrong.

At this time, the host's voice sounded again: "The next base to report is the Peninsula Base in Ludong Province."

Hearing the words "Peninsula Base", Li Congrong and Xiao Jingyue were instantly cheered up, and other leaders also straightened their bodies, even Zhao Zhenggang was no exception.

Obviously, the Peninsula base has become well-known among the official high-level officials.

Lin Yao knew clearly that most of the previous fame came from the support of Xiao Jingyue and Li Congrong, but he firmly believed that from today onwards, the fame of the Peninsula Base would be established entirely by its own strength.

Li Feifan and Shen Zhaoning stood up calmly, adjusted their clothes gently, and walked towards the stage with confident steps.

The moment the leaders on the stage saw the two of them, their eyes lit up.

The two were full of energy and looked calm, and their overall condition was better than any other base representative who had applied before. The leaders couldn't help but secretly praise them in their hearts, saying that it was indeed a base supported by Xiao Jingyue and Li Congrong, and it was indeed different.

Zhao Zhenggang had never had direct contact with Li Feifan before, so he failed to recognize him.

Li Feifan stood on the stage, with a calm expression and a loud voice, saying: "Hello, leaders. I am Li Feifan from the Peninsula Base. The person next to me is Shen Zhaoning, another presenter of our Peninsula Base. Today, the two of us will report to you."

A leader in the audience said, "You can start your report now."

Li Feifan nodded and said in an orderly manner: "Okay, our Peninsula Base is a private base. Our base commander is Lin Yao. Before the natural disaster, he was a first-line artist in our country. The military director of our base is Lin Xiao. Before the natural disaster, he also worked in the entertainment industry."

As soon as Li Feifan finished saying these two sentences, a burst of discussion broke out from the audience.

After all, when those bases introduced their leaders before, they were either important officials from a certain province or generals from a certain military region. At the very least, they were bosses of listed companies or presidents of famous universities.

But when it came to Lin Yao and Lin Xiao, they were actually artists and practitioners in the entertainment industry. This huge contrast naturally caused surprise and discussion among everyone.

The moment Zhao Zhengang heard Lin Yao's name, his body trembled involuntarily, and a strong hatred surged in his heart. If there was no one backing him up, he would have been dismissed and investigated long ago. How could he not hate Lin Yao?

He subconsciously turned around and glanced at the crowd behind him, and happened to meet Lin Yao's eyes.

Looking at the still radiant Lin Yao, the hatred in Zhao Zhengang's heart grew stronger, and his eyes seemed to be spewing fire.

When Lin Yao saw Zhao Zhengang's look, the corners of his mouth slightly raised, revealing a provocative smile, the meaning of which could not be more obvious.

Just as Zhao Zhen was about to explode, he heard someone beside him ask with concern, "Old Zhao, what's wrong with you?"

Zhao Zhengang suppressed his anger and said awkwardly, "Nothing, I just sat for a long time and my butt hurts a little."

Zhao Zhengang calmed down and started thinking about how to make things difficult for Lin Yao.

He thought, even if Lin Yao had Xiao Jingyue and Li Congrong behind him, he also had people supporting him, and he must make Lin Yao look bad today.
