Chapter 419 made a mistake that all men make.
The New World and the Salvation Army seem to be sincerely forming an alliance with the Steel Legion.
In the afternoon, they waited at the designated location.
Wu Bo led the evolved beings from the base to exchange hostages with them.
As an intermediate-level evolver, Tong Fei also accompanied them.
She met Zhao Yang's illegitimate son for the first time.
Although he was only three or four years old, he looked almost exactly like Zhao Yang.
In particular, his imposing hairstyle, named General, gives people the illusion of a miniature version of Zhao Yang.
Dai Yinyi also brought his ten-year-old son and Zhang Hao's younger brother, who was in his early twenties.
The Iron Legion had also planted spies on the enemy side, and had confirmed the hostages' identities early on.
After the hostages were exchanged, the atmosphere eased considerably.
Wu Bo and the others sat down with the opposing strategist to discuss how to attack the Fierce Tiger Gang.
They talked for a full three hours, until night fell, and then they went their separate ways.
After confirmation, both sides assembled their troops early the day after tomorrow and headed towards the island in the middle of the lake in Shannan City.
After Wu Bo and his team returned to the base, they detained the two hostages.
Exhausted from a long day, and with night already deep, Tong Fei had just gone to bed to rest when...
A soldier suddenly knocked on her door.
"Commander Tong, the general needs you to come over!"
"understood!"
Tong Fei responded, but her delicate eyebrows furrowed slightly.
It's so late, and Zhao Yang called me over. Either he has something important to discuss, or he has ulterior motives!
Recalling Su Chen's words, Tong Fei instinctively sensed that Zhao Yang had ill intentions.
The problem is that Zhao Yang is a general at the base and also his elder.
I simply couldn't refuse him.
Tong Fei sighed, then got dressed again and walked towards Zhao Yang's office.
"Please come in!"
After Tong Fei knocked on the office door, Zhao Yang's voice came out.
Tong Fei took a deep breath, pushed open the door, and went inside.
"Uncle Zhao, you were looking for me?"
Zhao Yang was wearing a bathrobe and looking at something on the computer.
Upon seeing Tong Fei walk in, a glint of desire flashed in his eyes!
What is there to say?
Lace paired with high heels, girl, you're really hot!
Startled by Zhao Yang's stare, Tong Fei paused for a moment before realizing that she was still dressed in her usual attire!
Although it might not be a big deal under normal circumstances, it's really not appropriate at this critical juncture!
She coughed lightly,
"Uncle Zhao?"
"Actually, it's nothing much, I just wanted to chat with you for a bit, Feifei!"
Zhao Yang smiled kindly.
"Secretary, pour two glasses of drink."
A moment later, Zhao Yang's secretary brought in two glasses of water and placed them in front of Zhao Yang and Tong Fei.
Tong Fei didn't rush to drink; instead, she looked at the wall behind Zhao Yang.
Before the apocalypse, Zhao Yang had a wife and son.
Unfortunately, the apocalypse came too suddenly, and he hadn't yet brought his wife and son over.
The two of them died in the apocalypse!
The wall originally displayed a photo of Zhao Yang and his family of three.
But Tong Fei suddenly noticed that there was a new photo, a picture of Zhao Yang and his illegitimate son!
Seeing that she was staring intently at the person behind him, Zhao Yang turned around and his gaze fell on the group photo.
He sighed and said with a wry smile,
"Feifei, I didn't mean to hide this."
"But what happened between me and my child's mother was a mistake that all men make..."
"If this gets out, it will definitely affect my prestige!"
"I hope you can understand your uncle!"
Tong Fei didn't speak, she just nodded.
"I called you here tonight because I have something to ask of you."
Zhao Yang explained,
"This child's mother also passed away a long time ago..."
"I'm busy with the affairs of the Steel Legion, and I really don't have the energy to take care of him."
"So I hope you can take care of him for me in the future!"
His request wasn't excessive.
After hearing this, Tong Fei nodded in agreement.
"Uncle Zhao, don't worry, I will take good care of him just like you took care of me!"
"That's good, let's drink!"
Zhao Yang picked up the water glass in front of him.
But Tong Fei did not immediately raise her glass; instead, she hesitated.
Seeing this, Zhao Yang chuckled and said,
"What, are you worried that your uncle has drugged it?"
"No, Uncle is joking."
Tong Fei smiled and raised her water glass as well.
The two touched hands lightly, then each drank it down in one gulp!
"It's getting late, Uncle Zhao. If there's nothing else, I'll head back now."
Tong Fei smiled.
"No rush, sit for a while longer!"
Zhao Yang waved his hand, preventing Tong Fei from leaving.
According to Wu Bo, the drug will take effect in just one or two minutes!
However, Zhao Yang stared at Tong Fei for a long time, but Tong Fei showed no unusual behavior.
Instead, his expression changed!
"Uncle Zhao, what's wrong? Are you feeling unwell?"
"No...it's okay!"
Zhao Yang leaned back in his chair and forced a smile.
"You're right, it's getting late, you should go home now!"
"it is good!"
Tong Fei didn't ask any more questions and got up to leave.
Not long after she left, Zhao Yang roared,
"Secretary, get in here!"
"General, wh...what's wrong?"
The secretary walked in, sweating profusely, and asked cautiously.
"Did you... add the wrong pill?"
Zhao Yang stared at his secretary and said fiercely.
Before Tong Fei arrived, he instructed his secretary to add the pills provided by Wu Bo to the water when bringing it in.
However, Tong Fei showed no abnormalities after drinking the water.
On the contrary, Zhao Yang himself was unable to move except for his head.
"General, I really didn't add anything wrong!"
The secretary protested her innocence.
"I marked Commander Tong's cup..."
He was stunned before he could finish speaking.
Because a cup with a label was placed in front of Zhao Yang.
"General, I swear..."
"I understand, you may leave now!"
Zhao Yang's face was grim as he gave the order.
Zhao Yang knew his secretary's competence.
Given how important this matter is, and with the markings already made, it's impossible for the secretary to make a mistake.
Then there is only one possibility.
While she turned around, Tong Fei switched the two glasses of water!
When did this young woman develop such deep thoughts?!
Zhao Yang was so angry he could have punched a nerve!
He had an urge to arrest Tong Fei and force himself on her!
But then I thought, never mind.
We're about to attack the Fierce Tiger Gang.
At this critical juncture, let's spare this little beaker for now!
After we take down the Fierce Tiger Gang, I'll deal with her properly!
……
the other side.
Back in her room, Tong Fei felt quite relieved!
Fortunately, she remembered Su Chen's reminder and switched their cups while Zhao Yang turned around!
