Chapter 986: Chapter 380: Don’t Push Your Luck_2
"A long-term team must be led by a Great Grandmaster, while a temporary leader can be a Grandmaster, but it also depends on the task difficulty. If the difficulty is too high, to prevent large casualties among you, a team led by a Grandmaster will not be allowed to proceed."
"The Task Hall will be composed of three departments: the task issuing department temporarily led by Yu Yao, the intelligence department led by Xu Feng, and the material exchange department led by Yin Mengwei."
"As for some other details, later I’ll have my secretary write them down thoroughly for you to check the detailed report."
"That’s all for today, alright, dismissed."

Zhang Beixing didn’t bother with the many discussions among The Ninth Bureau’s people and directly left.
Currently, The Ninth Bureau is like his one-man show; in such matters, once he makes a decision, it’s set in stone, and no one else can change it.
After he puts forward his ideas, he leaves the specifics to be executed by the people below him, without needing to think about it too much.
This time, all the researchers and ordinary working staff brought back from Willpower Country and DE Organization were handed over to the logistics department by Zhang Beixing all at once.
Anyway, it’s not the first time, Zhang Beixing believes the logistics department will handle these matters well.
Over the past few months, after long-term psychological counseling work.
The batch of researchers brought back by Lanbo has started working, although not many in number, it’s always a good start.
The researchers brought back from Lanxi Kingdom currently only have Marina working for Great Xia.
Zhang Beixing is not in a hurry.
These researchers are somewhat stubborn in their hearts.
Letting them willingly work for Great Xia might still need a bit of time.
The thing Zhang Beixing lacks the least right now is time.
Slowly transforming and assimilating them will do just fine.
For the culturally inclusive Great Xia, assimilating these people just requires spending more time.
As for those ordinary working staff brought back from DE Organization, they don’t get such good treatment.
On the second day they were sent to Great Xia, they were directly taken away for labor reform.
Zhang Beixing certainly doesn’t show them any good faces.
These people are directly dragged off for hard labor, receiving zero compensation.
Not only do they receive no compensation, even their daily living conditions merely ensure their basic needs for food and shelter.
The food and shelter are the simplest, the previous single room treatment is definitely gone, directly twelve people in one large bunkroom.
Zhang Beixing thinks this has already repaid them enough.
Being able to live and having food and shelter is nice enough.
Zhang Beixing got tired of killing later on, lazy to start a massacre, otherwise, how many would be able to survive?
If those researchers still remain stubborn in the end, that’s simple, just send them off to accompany the others.
Zhang Beixing went home.
Returned to his long-lost home.
Ever since The Ninth Bureau was established, Zhang Beixing felt he was almost no different from Dayu.
Dayu passed by his home thrice without entering.
He himself could hardly return home several times a year.
Lin Siqi’s side of the bed that belongs to him must nearly be cobwebbed, right?
Hmm, Zhang Beixing is still quite at ease regarding Lin Siqi.
Just as he opened the door, Zhang Beixing was greeted with the aroma of dishes wafting up his nose.
Whoa?
So you eat so well when I’m not home.
The sound of the door opening instantly alerted Lin Siqi, as well as Chen Rourou opposite her.
Both of them holding bowls and chopsticks, looked at Zhang Beixing with a slightly dazed and foolish expression.
"Why are you back?"
Lin Siqi showed confusion, her eyes wide while still having food stuffed in her mouth, speaking this way, she closely resembled a hamster.
Zhang Beixing was taken aback by this remark.
"I can’t come back home?"
"Hmm... Strictly speaking, this is my home, and we haven’t married yet."
"Now you suddenly come into my home, that’s categorized as illegal entry, you know?"
Zhang Beixing was stunned, "Ah?"
He immediately realized, oh well well, this lass is trying to tease him.
Taking off his shoes, he retrieved a pair from the innermost part of the shoe cabinet, placing them in front of himself to put on.
The action was rather skilled.
Seeing no utensils prepared for him at the table, Zhang Beixing didn’t mind at all. Naturally, he wasn’t expected to come back, so they hadn’t set his utensils, which was very normal.
Zhang Beixing directly went to the kitchen and ladled himself a bowl of rice.
Hmm...
Because not much was cooked, what was left was mostly the crunchy bits stuck to the pot.
But it doesn’t matter, Zhang Beixing’s stomach is perfectly fine, no need to eat soft rice.
Sitting at the familiar dining table, in his familiar spot.
"Home is still the best."
On hearing this, Lin Siqi rolled her eyes instantly, "Who told you to not come back for so long."
"Just tell me how many times you’ve come home during this period?"
"My family is asking me, when exactly are we getting married?!"
Alright, alright.
Zhang Beixing admits.
Dealing with Lin Siqi is tougher than dealing with those enemies.
Zhang Beixing can catch missiles at ease, but Lin Siqi’s words, he truly can’t handle.
Watching Zhang Beixing’s face turn into a stiff smile.
Lin Siqi snorted coldly.
Went back to eating, ignoring Zhang Beixing.
Zhang Beixing felt a bit embarrassed.
But soon his attention shifted to Chen Rourou quietly eating, not daring to speak up.
Suddenly placed his hand lightly on Chen Rourou’s head.
"Since I came in, how come you haven’t greeted me?"
Chen Rourou deliberately kept silent to avoid being implicated in this situation, yet unexpectedly, she was still spotted by Zhang Beixing.
"Master, you can’t always bully me, even a rabbit bites when cornered!!"
Bite...?
Zhang Beixing looked at Chen Rourou’s delicate lips.
Due to still eating, there was a shiny layer of oil on them.
For a moment, Zhang Beixing almost misunderstood what Chen Rourou meant.
Recalling now, despite Chen Rourou’s attitude towards him remaining the same, without much difference.
Perhaps Chen Rourou hadn’t yet adjusted her way of thinking.
Moreover, since that impromptu threesome last time, his domestic time has been relatively little.
This led to Chen Rourou’s attitude towards him not changing.
She certainly wouldn’t forget what happened that day.
But she’s likely buried it selectively deep into her heart.
Perhaps unsure of how to handle their relationship?
Zhang Beixing pondered.
This won’t do.
Seems like I’ll need to stay longer domestically.
Otherwise, if even my own woman doesn’t recognize me, then that would be interesting.
Watching Zhang Beixing’s expression growing heavier.
The initially annoyed Lin Siqi, suddenly kicked him lightly on the lower leg.
"If you’re eating, then eat, if not, get off the table, what bad habit is this staring blankly with utensils in hand?"
On hearing Lin Siqi’s cold snort, Zhang Beixing snapped back.
Gave Lin Siqi a deep look.
"Alright, alright, I’ll eat first, we’ll talk after dinner."
As he spoke, Zhang Beixing gave Lin Siqi a look.
Lin Siqi immediately understood the meaning behind Zhang Beixing’s look, fiercely glaring back at him.
Gestured with his eyes, glanced in Chen Rourou’s direction, indicating to not go overboard with her presence.
Zhang Beixing chuckled.
Isn’t this funny.
But stayed silent.
Should I arrange days to accompany them one by one since returning home?
No definitely gather together!
But Zhang Beixing did not vocalize it, hmm, whatever needs to be said, wait until after dinner.
Zhang Beixing picked up his bowl and ate heartily, relishing Chen Rourou’s prepared Mapo Tofu and fish-flavored shredded pork.
The time spent abroad tasting foreign flavors.
Definitely the domestic dishes taste best.
