Doomsday: I Can Get a Hint-Chapter 449 - 273: Di Wushuang’s Marriage Proposal (Part 2)

Chapter 449: Chapter 273: Di Wushuang’s Marriage Proposal (Part 2)

Now that Wang Hao has showcased such terrifying strength, it’s put a lot of pressure on her.

It’s even dealt a slight blow to her self-esteem.

Chen Bin glanced at her.

Although they rarely interacted, Chen Bin understood his sister well.

He knew she must have been shaken by Wang Hao.

"This is just the early stage of the apocalypse; everyone has only recently acquired superpowers, so some differences are normal.

The earlier strength differences are only temporary; the key lies in the future. Those who can laugh last, laugh best."

Chen Bin said calmly.

These words were for Chen Lingxue, and also for himself.

The gap between him and Wang Hao was equally significant.

He couldn’t take this sense of disparity either.

Before doomsday, he was much more outstanding than Chen Lingxue.

He had been receiving elite education abroad, working alongside Chen Guofu to grow the company step by step.

Among his peers, few could compare with him.

Even among the older generation of business giants, many were toyed with in his hands.

Someone like Wang Hao, before doomsday, wasn’t even worthy to carry his shoes.

Yet now, he had become someone Chen Bin looked up to.

Though he didn’t say it, he was very unwilling in his heart.

He wanted to become stronger!

"Hmm! I understand."

Chen Lingxue looked at him with some surprise, then nodded.

She didn’t expect her brother to comfort her.

In her heart, she still had a doubt.

That was, some of Wang Hao’s methods seemed very similar to the old white-haired man.

The same barrier, the same enhanced arms...

They.....

...

In Chen Lingxue’s room

After returning to the shelter, Wang Hao bathed Xiaoyueyue and then held her and fell into a deep sleep on the bed.

Xiaoyueyue seemed very tired, snuggled in Wang Hao’s arms and fell sweetly asleep.

The Black Mist Man leaned against the door outside, playing the role of bodyguard.

I must say, the Black Mist Man was very trustworthy and diligent.

Having agreed to be Wang Hao’s subordinate, he meticulously carried out Wang Hao’s orders, safeguarding his safety.

While Wang Hao slept here, outside was already bustling with activity.

Chen Guofu, upon receiving the news, was extremely shocked, then overjoyed, passing authority to Chen Lingxue and Chen Bin.

Now, the shelter was entirely under their family’s command.

Experts were arranged to enter the shelter, with dedicated personnel inquiring them for identification and differentiation.

These were top-tier experts.

Identifying which were original members of the Equality Association and which were abducted after the apocalypse for distribution purposes.

Various data and materials were being decoded in a completely sealed laboratory.

Trucks were driving out of the gathering place, heading toward a secret base.

After a brief treatment, Xu Xiang and Chen Lingxue also set off.

Even Chen Bin joined them.

Xu Xiang also contacted the Settlement Camp via radio, ready to provide artillery support at any time.

Almost 80% of the shelter’s guard force went out.

In the secret base, there were vast amounts of supplies, including other precious and scarce items besides food.

It’s crucial to ensure the safety of these items as much as possible.

As for the safety of the shelter.

Firstly, the shelter’s defenses were very high and difficult to breach.

Secondly, wasn’t this deity Wang Hao here?

He was just asleep, not dead.

If a strong enemy came, he certainly wouldn’t sit idly by.

They didn’t even consider the issue of a corpse tide.

...

At this moment, the Equality Association was in turmoil.

The white-haired elder’s Life Lamp had gone out.

Even in the powerful Equality Association, cultivators were as rare as phoenix feathers and unicorn horns.

Especially someone like him, a remnant from the Dark Age, was an ancient relic.

Suddenly dying would cause pain to the Equality Association as well.

This was a powerful combat force!

Not to mention he was overseeing a secret base.

A secret base guarded by a cultivator indicated its significant importance.

Within it were numerous valuable research materials and elite experts.

The most terrifying part was that this secret base primarily researched Corpse Poison Serum.

Reportedly, there had been significant breakthroughs, currently undergoing improvement.

"Investigate! At any cost, by the fastest means, find out exactly what happened."

...

In Chen Guofu’s office

Ever since Chen Lingxue reported some situations to him, Chen Guofu’s smile hadn’t faded.

They were going to be prosperous!

He knew that their shelter was about to soar.

The items in the secret base were secondary; the main thing was Wang Hao.

Wang Hao’s combat power was too strong.

He and Chen Lingxue had that indescribable relationship.

With such a strong backing, he felt he didn’t even need to fear the Settlement Camp.

In fact, the Settlement Camp would have to come and curry favor and pander to him.

"Good! Wonderful! Our Chen family has been prosperous for generations; even in this apocalypse, we can still thrive."

Chen Guofu sat in the boss chair, dreaming of the future.

At this moment, the butler knocked and came in.

"Sir!"

"What is it?"

Chen Guofu instinctively furrowed his brow, not wanting to be disturbed now.

"A call from Imperial Capital First Settlement Camp!"

The old butler held a document, his face extremely serious.

"What? Imperial Capital First Settlement Camp?"

Chen Guofu’s expression changed dramatically.

That was a true giant!

Why would they suddenly contact someone as insignificant as him?

"What’s the matter?"

"The Imperial Capital First Settlement Camp called; the Chen Family’s Chen Lingxue, possessing the Ice Phoenix superpower, is destined for greatness and matches well with Imperial Capital’s top powerhouse, Di Wushuang.

Imperial Capital First Settlement Camp wishes to form an alliance with the Chen Family, Di Wushuang wants to marry Chen Lingxue...."

"What?"

Hearing that Di Wushuang wanted to marry Chen Lingxue, Chen Guofu was completely stunned.

Such a figure wishing to marry Chen Lingxue?

If it worked out, their Chen Family would skyrocket on the spot!

They could then follow Chen Lingxue to the Imperial Capital.

With experts everywhere, it would be much safer than here.

With Di Wushuang’s support, they could rise again rapidly in the Imperial City, possibly even becoming the wealthiest.

Admittedly, Chen Guofu was tempted.

Even if not him, anyone else would also be tempted.

Wang Hao was impressive, but compared to Di Wushuang, he was nothing.

In comparison, his background wasn’t even as substantial as Xu Xiang’s.

Xu Xiang had a large settlement camp behind him.

Only...

If it were peacetime, he would choose Di Wushuang immediately.

But now it was the apocalypse; moving city to city was challenging, let alone from here to the Imperial City.

Such a long distance, even for a superpower user, was fraught with danger.

Moreover, accepting Di Wushuang’s offer would mean offending Wang Hao, even Xu Xiang.

They were very close by.

Dealing with them would be easy and effortless; the Imperial Capital Settlement Camp or even Di Wushuang, though formidable, were far and unable to help in time.

"Sir..."

The butler looked worriedly at Chen Guofu.

He was an old hand in the Chen family, having grown up there.

To become a butler, he had to be highly capable.

He certainly saw the complexity of the situation.

A single misstep might lead to total loss in this age.

"Leave me for now, let me think carefully."

Even Chen Guofu was momentarily without direction regarding such a major issue.

He needed to calm down and think it through.

This concerned the survival of the Chen family.
