What is supposed to come will come, and escaping is not an option.

Xue Guo made a simple adjustment and knocked on the door.

"Dong dong dong~"

"Who is it?" Xue Qiang's voice came.

Listening to his brother's voice, it was obvious that he was listless.

This made Xue Guo feel that today's conversation might not go well.

"Me." Xue Guo responded.

Immediately afterwards, Xue Guo heard the sound of shoes dragging the floor.

After the door opened, Xue Guo couldn't help but be stunned when he looked at his younger brother's appearance.

If the voice just now did not come from Xue Qiang's mouth, he really would not have been able to confirm that it was his brother who opened the door.

Xue Qiang's disheveled hair, unkempt beard, protruding eyes, and thick dark circles indicate that he is in a bad mental state.

"You...what's wrong?" Xue Guo was worried.

"Come in." Xue Qiang was in a daze, as if he didn't hear Xue Guo's question. He dropped these words and returned to the house on his own.

The room was dark. When Xue Guo entered the room, he smelled an unpleasant smell.

Xue Guo walked into the house and closed the door behind him.

Then, go straight to the window location.

Open the curtains to let the light in.

Xue Guo was fine with this, but Xue Qiang didn't feel comfortable with it and raised his hand to block the glare.

"Didn't you sleep last night?"

When they came down to greet him, Xue Guo saw that Xue Qiang was still normal.

Unexpectedly, Xiang Xiang felt so haggard for his brother after close contact.

In fact, it's not that Xue Qiang didn't sleep last night, he hadn't slept for two nights.

Some time ago, he also had trouble sleeping due to alliance cooperation matters.

Seeing the haggard appearance of his younger brother, Xue Guo, the elder brother, felt worried and uncomfortable.

The younger brother in the past was not like this.

As a teacher, Xue Qiang has always adhered to the principle of being a role model.

Every time I go out, I keep myself neat and clean.

But look at it now... one day, one day.

In a dark environment, to put it bluntly, there is really not much difference between a ghost and a ghost.

Originally, Xue Guo came to discuss matters related to fire with Xue Qiang.

He was prepared for all kinds of difficulties in the contact process, but he did not expect to encounter this situation.

Others don't know why his brother is so haggard. How could Xue Guo, the elder brother and the person in charge of the family, not understand?

Precisely because of this, Xue Qiang's haggard appearance made Xue Guo waver in his original determination to discuss it.

He is also weighing the current situation and whether it is necessary to continue the topic with Xue Qiang.

Xue Guo certainly knew the importance of the fire issue to Xu Renjie, the alliance and cooperation between the two parties, and even the future development of the Xue family.

But the physical condition of his younger brother Xue Qiang... is also a problem that Xue Guo cannot ignore.

After all, I only have one younger brother.

Under such circumstances, going to discuss something with his brother would definitely cause him to have huge emotional fluctuations... Xue Guozhen was not sure whether to continue.

In order to arouse his brother's emotions...

And just when Xue Guo hesitated to weigh it, Xue Qiang spoke: "Brother, why did you come to me?"

Xue Qiang's words brought the stunned Xue Guo back to reality.

Raising his eyebrows and looking at Xue Qiang, Xue Guo hesitated: "I..."

"I know, I know why you came here, it's Xu Renjie's business... right?" Xue Qiang said directly.

When the matter reaches this point, if Xue Guo denies it and prevaricates that he is concerned about Xue Qiang's physical condition and comes to check on him... it would be a bit pretentious and hypocritical.

Besides, Xue Guo is not the kind of person who comes at the drop of a hat.

Swallowing, he finally nodded: "Yes."

"What's the matter with Huo Yao?" Xue Qiang took a step further.

Xue Qiang's "aggressiveness" actually caught Xue Guo off guard.

"I... am." After thinking about it, Xue Qiang still affirmed.

After that, Xue Qiang didn't respond.

The atmosphere in the room suddenly became awkward.

Xue Guo hesitated for a few seconds before finally making up his mind and asking the core question: "Does Huo want you to do it?"

"What do you think?" Xue Qiang asked.

Xue Qiang was very uncomfortable with his younger brother's avoidance of important matters, which was almost like practicing Tai Chi.

It's no wonder that he has a resolute personality and doesn't like to be meandering.

So... instead of thinking too much about other things, Xue Guo decided to start speaking openly.

After simply adjusting his thoughts, Xue Guo said: "Brother, I don't know what your current views are on Lao Xu and the others. I also don't know how much you have accepted since the last conversation with you.

Let’s put these aside for now.

I won’t tell you more, because I know you probably don’t want to hear it either.

Let me just talk about the past two days. Xu Renjie’s team took our family out for training.

Our family has grown a lot. When you have time, you can talk to family members who are away from home and hear their opinions on Xu Renjie’s team.

I am alone and may have subjective opinions.

You should listen more to others and see what they have experienced in action.

I believe they will tell you and Lao Xu in action...the huge gains they have achieved.

Of course, this is just the training part. In reality, we got a large amount of rice, flour and food from the field today. These supplies are actually there and are not bragging about Xue Guo.

The quantity of rice and flour is more than what we have collected in the past year.

While collecting these supplies, we encountered attacks from zombie dogs. It was the members of Lao Xu’s team who protected the team with their lives, in order to prevent our Xue family from being attacked by zombie dogs. Two members of Lao Xu’s team fought to the death to attract eight people outside.

Zombie dogs attack!!

These are all things that actually happened, not made up by me, Xue Guo.

Furthermore, I think you already know the mission objectives of this operation, so I won’t go into details.

I will only tell you the result...it went very smoothly, and all the necessary materials were collected and brought back.

I also met with Lao Xu just now. If nothing happens tomorrow, Li Zhong from their team will take the lead in assembling the solar grid for us.

Once that thing is done, we can resume power at home.

How meaningful is it to be able to use it in the last days... I believe I don’t need to say anything more to you, right?

Second, I'm not surprised that you have objections to the alliance cooperation proposed by Lao Xu and others.

You think people are using us to drag us into fighting skinheads... I don't think there is anything wrong with that.

You have these thoughts, which are nothing more than considering the problem from the perspective of our Xue family and worrying about the interests of our Xue family.

This is fine, but I hope that when you consider these things, you can still see the benefits of Xu Renjie's team and the sacrifices they have made for our Xue family.

We also discussed last time that Xu Renjie and the others decided to form an alliance to fight against the skinheads... Lao Xu made it clear that our Xue family will not participate in the battle. We will only provide certain supplies, weapons and ammunition in the rear to support the attack.
Chapter completed!
