Meng Qing remained calm, his eyes narrowing slightly. “I understand your frustration, but we need to focus on the task at hand. This is bigger than just our personal issues.”
Yu Yi took a deep breath, forcing herself to refocus. “Fine, what’s the plan?”
Meng Qing explained the strategy, detailing the approach they’d take during the transaction. As they discussed, the tension in the air began to lighten slightly. Both of them were professionals, after all.
The night pressed on, the stakes high, but they were determined to succeed.
It was only because Bo Shi said the situation was urgent that I agreed to come.” But after arriving, she found the factory empty, and they had been talking for quite a while. The current situation didn’t seem urgent at all.
Meng Qing corrected her, “It’s tricky, not urgent. They won’t arrive for another half hour.” He looked her up and down, “Are these clothes suitable for a gunfight?”
Yu Yi only then noticed she was still wearing her original time period’s traditional costume, blushing as she explained, “Bo Shi sent me directly.” Usually, when using her original body for time travel, she would change into appropriate clothing first, but this time Bo Shi said the situation was urgent and sent her immediately, and they had both forgotten about clothing.
Meng Qing asked, “Did you at least wear a bulletproof system?”
Yu Yi glanced around and tried to absorb the gravity of the situation, “Bulletproof system?”
Meng Qing looked at Yu Yi in disbelief. “Bo Shi sent you like this? Does he hate you that much?” Was Bo Shi out of his mind? He seemed to have lost it. Last time, he seemed to care about Yu Yi, but now it didn’t seem so.
Yu Yi defended Bo Shi, “Bo Shi has always taken good care of me.”
Meng Qing explained helplessly, “A bulletproof system protects you from being shot, but a single-person bulletproof system uses battery power, and the force field can’t sustain for long.”
He opened the client, selected a bulletproof system for Yu Yi, and saw that she had also chosen modern, movement-friendly clothing. He transmitted the bulletproof system and clothing program to her, pointing to a small room at the end of the walkway, “You can change there.”
