Millennium: I Love Demon King

Seeing that Gu Cheng had returned, He Meiwei felt embarrassed to be the light bulb for the couple. Smiling, she bid farewell to Lin Xin.

Gu Cheng walked over to the small bed and sat down cross-legged. He silently looked at Gu Ruoyun and her brother for a long time, his eyes full of reluctance. Lin Xin, who was so focused on her child, noticed. Only now did she realize that she seemed to have ignored him. She didn't even notice when he had been thinking about her.

"What, did something happen in the base again?" Lin Xin followed his example and sat cross-legged on the carpet, softly saying.

"Not Beijing, Tianjin. Yuan Huiying and the others wanted me to follow them to the Tianjin base to clean up the forces inside. Liu Shi was also afraid that the chaos in Tianjin would affect Beijing … "I am a little reluctant to part with you and your two children. They are still young, only three months old. How can they grow up so fast …" He looked tenderly at the sleeping babies and sighed. "I don't know how long I'll be back. I'm afraid neither of them will recognize me if I do."

Thinking about how the two of them would be separated for a period of time, Lin Xin couldn't bear to part from him. However, since Gu Cheng had already decided, there was always a reason for him to do so. Lin Xin didn't say anything. She only lightly leaned against his shoulder and used her body language to express her support for him.

The two of them snuggled against each other for a while before they heard Lou Xiao's approaching footsteps. The closer they got, the softer their footsteps became. In the next second, a furry head peeked out from the crack in the door. Blinking his bright black eyes, he was clearly startled when he saw that both Gu Cheng and Lin Xin were present. He hesitated for a moment, hesitating as to whether he should withdraw.

Ever since Lin Xin had given birth to those two little fellows, Gu Cheng had not been the only one to be ignored by her, even Lou Xiao. However, he was not like those rascals who had been stuck in the second stage for a long time. He did not bear grudges against these two little nieces because his parents had stolen their attention away from him. On the contrary, Lou Xiao enjoyed Gu Ruoyun and Gu Ruoyun, the two chubby kids. The first thing he did when he returned was to go to the nursery and take a look at them.

"Lou Xiao, come in." Seeing that he was about to leave, Gu Cheng extended a hand to greet him.

After a year of meticulous care, Lou Xiao now looked like a big boy. When Lin Xin was pregnant, there were a lot of things happening, so the two didn't teach him to read properly. However, Grandma Liu and co., who were downstairs, took the initiative to take over the task. It just so happened that Lil 'Keke and co. had reached the age where they should learn to read. Their time spent in contact with each other slowly decreased. It was unknown when it had started but they were both a bit unfamiliar with each other.

Lin Xin saw how he wanted to get close to her but didn't dare to, and couldn't help but feel her heart ache. Back then, her stomach had grown bigger and bigger, and Lou Xiao's movements had not been light or heavy. After Gu Cheng had stopped him a few times, Lou Xiao had never taken the initiative to approach her again.

"Come here and let me have a good look at you." Lin Xin encouraged him as she held Lou Xiao's hand. She looked at his face from top to bottom, touching his head lovingly and tenderly, "In the blink of an eye, you've grown so tall …"

Gu Cheng was not as emotional as she was. He merely smoothed out the distance between him and Lou Xiao, telling him very seriously, "Brother-in-law is going out for a trip in a few days. You have to take good care of your sister and your two little nieces at home. Can you do that?"

Lou Xiao nodded vigorously, his eyes sparkling with excitement from being trusted.

"Your baby and Bei Bei have already fallen asleep. If you see them, go back to your room and sleep. You'll only grow up faster if you get enough sleep." Knowing his habit, Lin Xin did not stop Lou Xiao from staying in the nursery to accompany the twins. Instead, she pulled Gu Cheng into their own room.

Gu Cheng felt a little strange as she pulled him along. Usually, Lin Xin would stay in the baby's room and would often need him to carry her, who was so tired that she fell asleep, back to her room. For her to return to her room at just 7 or 8 o'clock like today, it definitely wasn't something that she could do.

However, when she pushed him onto the bed and gently pulled open the straps of his nightgown, Gu Cheng immediately understood what she meant.

The night was absurd.

Fortunately, when the baby and Bei Bei were full, they could sleep until dawn. Lin Xin didn't need to wake up in the middle of the night to feed them, or else she really wouldn't be able to support her old waist like a bottle of milk. It was her fault for doing so. She didn't need to take care of her children like other mothers did, and because she threw herself wholeheartedly into her children's arms, she ignored their father and made him a monk for more than three months. He was even more hardworking than when she was pregnant. This sudden lifting of the ban made Gu Cheng virtually as fierce as a wolf and as fierce as a tiger, making it difficult for her to resist.

With their separation imminent, Lin Xin and Gu Cheng were like lovebirds entangled with each other day and night, even more lovey than when they were first together. When they were about to leave for the Tianjin base, Lin Xin and Lou Xiao carried one child each and sent Gu Cheng out of the Beijing base's gate. When their car disappeared into the horizon, they turned around and returned home.

On the other side, Gu Cheng was also looking towards the direction of the base behind them. However, at this point in time, no one was making fun of him for wanting more. Since the child was so young, it was normal for him to not be able to relax. Moreover, this trip was truly dangerous.

To take Tianjin, besieging the city by force is useless. Thus, Liu Shi and Yuan Huying each selected five hundred people, with Gu Cheng and Team A as the main force. They planned to sneak into the Tianjin base in batches, first controlling the Wang family's forces in the east district, and then gradually dismantling the other factions within the base.

However, this was only a rough idea. Because the information was still incomplete, the think tank led by Ying Jing had yet to come up with a detailed plan for the operation. On the other hand, after Gu Cheng got on the car, a sudden inspiration struck him as he thought of a method to capture the thief and the king first.

What were the survivors most concerned about in the apocalypse? Food! What would happen if he emptied all the granaries at the Tianjin base?

Both Liu Shi and Yuen Huiying felt that this was feasible. Once they had snuck into the Tianjin base and figured out the location of the granary, they let Gu Cheng store all the grains into the space. Without the food that the base relies on, the pond water in Tianjin would naturally become chaotic without them needing to worry about it. When the time comes, they just need to catch the few big fish that were jumping around to get rid of them and the remaining shrimps wouldn't be able to stir up any trouble. At that time, the redeployed troops from the Beijing base would be able to enter the Tianjin base without a hitch. Once the situation was settled, there would naturally be officers from the apocalypse who would settle their old scores with these little shrimps.

No matter how they looked at it, this was their best plan in a situation where they were extremely nervous. In the end, Liu Shi decided to use Gu Cheng's method. The group was split into a scattered convoy. Gu Cheng and his team of six, who were in charge of investigation, were the first to sneak into the Tianjin base. The rest of the group entered the base in batches over the next few days. After everyone agreed on the signal to contact each other, they stopped ten kilometers away from the Li Tianjing base.

Gu Cheng and the six members of the scouting team drove a dilapidated bus, changing into dirty camouflage. In order to make it look more realistic, the bus even had half a bag of rice and a jar of almost bottomless pickles hidden away.

Their camouflage successfully tricked the guards and successfully slipped into the base's isolation zone. However, this time, Gu Cheng did not need to be isolated for three more days like before. The next morning, they were sent to the base.
