Chapter 291: Important
The human and the cat played around happily.
On the other side, Mu Ting Ye saw Mu Ting Yu coming with a solemn expression and he frowned.
"Brother, did something serious happened?" Mu Ting Ye knew that Mu Ting Yu was responsible for many things in City A Base.
If there was some serious accidents or something like that, Mu Ting Yu might be sent to the frontline to deal with it.
It could be dangerous.
But not always.
"It’s about Yu Shi Lan," Mu Ting Yu said bluntly.
Mu Ting Ye frowned. "She didn’t kill anyone."
He had been with Yu Shi Lan in the past few days and Mu Ting Ye knew better than anyone what Yu Shi Lan has been doing.
"...I didn’t say that she killed someone." Mu Ting Yu looked at his younger brother quietly.
"That’s the only thing that you might concern yourself."
The last time Mu Ting Yu came to Mu Ting Ye about Yu Shi Lan, it was because of her action of killing and then torturing people.
Mu Ting Ye knew very well that Yu Shi Lan’s moral bottom line is lower than them.
But he didn’t mind that much.
Not everyone could be so kind like Mu Ting Yu.
And even Mu Ting Yu would not be kind to everyone all the time as he has his own temper. It was mainly because of his sense of responsibility that he chose to help many people within his capabilities.
"... Mu Ting Ye, does my image in your mind that bad?" Mu Ting Yu’s lips twitched. And seeing the look on Mu Ting Ye’s face, he really wanted to hit his younger brother.
*sigh*
Forget it.
All younger brother is really a debt.
"Yu Shi Lan’s biological mother, Sun Ming Yue, suddenly contacted City A Base’s leaders." Mu Ting Yu looked at Mu Ting Ye sternly.
Mu Ting Ye was stunned.
Sun Ming Yue, Yu Shi Lan’s so called biological mother, actually contacted City A Base’s leaders?
He knew that Sun Ming Yue was not in City A Base.
After all, he could still contact his old friends and after asking around, it was not that hard to find out where the Sun Family is.
Who made the Sun Family so high profile and also eye catching?
Even after the disaster, they still made a lot of moves, which made many people knew where they were located.
"What did she want?" Mu Ting Ye frowned.
From what he knew, Sun Ming Yue didn’t like Yu Shi Lan. This was very obvious just from her behavior of leaving Yu Shi Lan in the Wang Family without caring for her life or death.
Mu Ting Ye dared to bet that Sun Ming Yue didn’t even know what Yu Shi Lan liked or any of her food preferences.
All Sun Ming Yue knew was nothing more than her basic situation.
Or perhaps... Sun Ming Yue had already known that Yu Shi Lan has become a powerful cultivator by now.
Mu Ting Ye pursed his lips when he thought about this.
"For the base to kick Yu Shi Lan out and not give her any chance to come back," Mu Ting Yu replied unhurriedly.
Mu Ting Ye’s face darkened upon hearing this.
"Is the Sun Family crazy?" Mu Ting Ye laughed in anger. "The base would not listen to their words, would they?"
"No." Mu Ting Yu shook his head and seeing Mu Ting Ye’s skeptical expression, he chuckled. "They did offer a lot of rewards to the base, stating that the Sun Family can cover up a lot of expenses..."
Mu Ting Ye’s face darkened from each words that Mu Ting Yu said.
Many people in the political circles only cared about their own benefit instead of the people. Even if there were some people who truly cares, but Mu Ting Ye’s impression of these people were really bad.
If it was not because Mu Ting Yu has some relationship with them, Mu Ting Ye would not even bother to give them any face.
It was annoying.
Now that they set their sight on Yu Shi Lan, Mu Ting Ye really wanted to smash their faces.
"I refused," Mu Ting Yu finally said.
Mu Ting Ye looked at his older brother in surprise.
"Why do you look at me like that?" Mu Ting Yu arched his eyebrows.
"You’re a soldier who cared for the well being of the people more than your personal needs," Mu Ting Ye replied.
This is something that Mu Ting Ye had known for a long time. It was also because of this that Mu Ting Ye didn’t want Yu Shi Lan to have too much relationships with Mu Ting Yu.
From the fact that the two people’s moral bottom lines were very different, Mu Ting Ye was worried that they would clash. It was also because of this that he would bring Yu Shi Lan away from time to time.
It’s better to let Yu Shi Lan focus on training than on these messes.
Mu Ting Yu: "..."
He knew that he’s a soldier, but is his image really that bad in front of Mu Ting Ye?
Mu Ting Yu mused to himself before sighing.
"While it’s true that I’m a soldier, but I’m also your brother. A soldier’s duty is to protect the nation and the people, but if I can’t even protect the people important to me, what kind of nation am I protecting?" Mu Ting Yu shook his head.
The conflict between personal matters and duty has always existed.
Mu Ting Yu didn’t know what other soldiers would choose, but for him, he didn’t want to put Mu Ting Ye in difficult position because of him.
So he requested the base to refuse the Sun Family’s offer.
Considering his position and Mu Ting Ye behind him, the general agreed to Mu Ting Yu’s request.
Mu Ting Ye looked at Mu Ting Yu with a dazed expression.
"She’s also important for you?"
