Chapter 140: Chapter 140: Decisions, Decisions



"Hey babe, what are you doing for mom\'s birthday present?" Nami curiously asked.

"Um, I was thinking of making her a nice dinner." Xiaoyun awkwardly scratched his head.

"Babe... You can\'t be serious. Is that all you are doing for mom?" Yuqi looked a little surprised by Xiaoyun\'s suggestion.

"I was also planning to give her a secret gift. I just can\'t reveal it to you guys yet." Xiaoyun immediately made one up on the spot.

"You better, mom has sacrificed so much for you." Nami seem of saw through Xiaoyun\'s lies but didn\'t want to pop the bubble.

"Of course, all of you guys will be shock when you guys get to see it... Oh snap, I need to go back to the training field now." Xiaoyun ran out of the office with his backpack in hand.

----

When Xiaoyun was out of the building and walking in the street, he started thinking what to get for Leyan.

"Hm, what present can I give her? I only have two week before it\'s her birthday... And I still have to sort out the scientist and militias... Such a headache." Xiaoyun started walking in the commercial district looking for something he can buy.

After walking stores to stores, he couldn\'t find anything that could fit the criteria.

Suddenly, someone tapped him on the shoulder. Xiaoyun turned around and sees Yiming was behind him.

"Hey Xiaoyun, what are you doing here?"

"Oh I\'m just looking for a gift for Leyan, but none of them fits." Xiaoyun explained.

"A gift? What are you looking for?" Yiming asked.

"I don\'t know to be honest... I just need something that can surprise her."

"What does she like then?" Yiming asked.

"Leyan doesn\'t seem like luxury or expensive gifts... She usually dislike accepting gift." Xiaoyun replied.

"Perhaps you should handmade something for her." Yiming suggested.

Xiaoyun thought for a second, and nodded in agreement to Yiming\'s suggestion.

"Anyway, what are you doing here?" Xiaoyun asked as he had never seen Yiming outside of the training field or his house.

"Just enjoying a break that you gave me just like all the other soldiers... You know, I have to give some kudos to you for this town. I can never imagine this big of a town during a apocalypse like this."

"Thanks for the compliment, but that probably should be directed toward Yuqi, she\'s the one that mostly planned this." Xiaoyun clarified.

"Well without you, she would of never have the platform to show her ability like this. Anyway, I\'m going back home now. See you next week." Yiming waved goodbye.

"See ya." Xiaoyun waved back as the two went separate way.

---

When Xiaoyun arrived back home, it was already five in the afternoon.

"Hey honey, what did you brought today?" Leyan noticed Xiaoyun carrying few bags in his hand.

"Just some work I have to do. How\'s the three today?" Xiaoyun asked.

"Just the usual, playing with each other and the occasional crying when they get hungry." Leyan replied back as the two walked inside the living room.

"Honey are you okay? Your seem a little stressed out." Leyan noticed Xiaoyun\'s face looked a little different.

"I\'m fine, I\'m just a little tired. You know the past few days has very busy. I just need to take care of few more things and I\'ll be finally free." Xiaoyun stretched out his back as he sat down on the sofa.

The two sat down on the sofa in silent as they watched the three babies moving a toy car around.

"Honey... if you are worrying about making me a birthday present, you don\'t have to do that. You being here is the best present I can ask for." Leyan moved a little closer to Xiaoyun.

"What? I\'m not worry or stressed out about a birthday present. It\'s just the scientists and insurgents I have to deal with. I still don\'t know how to deal with them."

Leyan lean closer on his shoulder, with the two being able to hear each other\'s breathing.

"Why don\'t you have lawyer or a judge to sort it out? I\'m sure the town has someone that have that occupation." Leyan suggested.

"I already checked... Nobody in the town has that job experience before. Or at least they didn\'t report it during the census." Xiaoyun replied back.

"Hm... Maybe you should do a jury trial and let them decide. It will reflect public opinion about this." Leyan suggested another solution.

"Maybe I\'ll do that..." Xiaoyun\'s nodded in agreement.

"Honey, that wasn\'t the only thing in your mind right?" Leyan noticed Xiaoyun still looked a little stressed.

"It\'s about Yueyue... Li Zhen suggested Yueyue to be leading the domestic intelligence department but I\'m not sure if I should even ask her about it." Xiaoyun finally revealed what has been stuck in his mind.

"Domestic intelligence?" Leyan looked a little confused by what Xiaoyun meant.

"Yeah domestic intelligence. It\'s main role would be to make sure there\'s nobody attempting another coup and to make sure there\'s no corruption in the government." Xiaoyun explained.

"I see... why did Li Zhen suggested Yueyue though? She doesn\'t seem a person that fit that kind of job."

"I thought so too, but Li Zhen told me she has a curious mindset that can help leading investigation, and that she\'s the most trustworthy person that can be on that position." Xiaoyun explained Li Zhen\'s reasoning.

"I think he isn\'t wrong about that. This job definitely need someone who you can one hundred percent trust... someone who has no reason to betray you. Like their interest are completely dependent on you."

Leyan paused for a second to think about it, then lifted five finger up.

"Let\'s count the people that can take this job. First it can\'t be Yuqi since she\'s working as your mayor\'s job. Nami and Shuli both are assistance to her, so they are out of the equation as well." Leyan lowered three of the finger.

"Which leaves Wuli or Yueyue... both of them had already training in the military, but Yueyue had only joined the militia in the past while Wuli is still in the military... so what do you think honey?" Leyan looked back at Xiaoyun.

"I didn\'t think about Wuli having that job at all... Speaking of Wuli, where did she go? I haven\'t seen her for the whole day." Xiaoyun curiously asked.

"She went shopping earlier, and then went to go pick up Lily since she got nothing else to do. They should be back at this point." Leyan looked at the clock and noticed it was already five-thirty.

"I\'ll go cal——" Before Xiaoyun could finish speaking, the door was opened.

"I\'m back!" Yueyue was with both Lily and Wuli as they walked inside the house.

"Welcome back Yueyue, how\'s work today?" Leyan got up and walked over to carry Yueyue\'s bag.

"Mostly sorting the scientist\'s data and categorizing them to each one of them. You wouldn\'t believe how disturbing it was to read them...

It make me feel disgusted just from thinking about it." Yueyue replied as she sat down on the sofa.

"I still can\'t believe every single one of them managed to have blood on their hand and feel not guilty. It just insane." Yueyue mentioned it again.

"Oh sorry, I shouldn\'t mention this at home." Yueyue realized what she just said.

"It\'s fine... Lily, how\'s school today?" Leyan looked over to Lily who was behind the two.

"Nothing much, just learning about algebra and chemistry." Lily laid down on the sofa.

"Anything problem with the work or classes? I can help tutor you." Leyan offered.

"I\'m good. I already did the homework in class." Lily refused the offer as she still laying down on the sofa like a dead fish.

"Wuli, where did you go shopping?" Xiaoyun curiously asked as he didn\'t see her at all when he went to go shopping.

"Just went to go buy some cloths at the new district for me and Shuli since she\'s complaining about her cloths shrinking." Wuli replied back.

"Oh snap I need to go cook dinner." Leyan got up and left the living room.

---

When Leyan finished cooking dinner, the other three just came back home in time.

"We\'re finally back home." Nami announced as they walked to the living room.

"What took you guys so long?" Xiaoyun curiously asked as the clock was already seven.

"We had some data missing and had to reconfirm it." Shuli replied as if she had no energy.

"Is dinner ready? I\'m so hungry." Yuqi asked as she rubbed her empty belly.

"Leyan just finished cooking and the other three is already sitting down." Xiaoyun lead the three to the kitchen.

"Welcome back." Wuli said out loud to the three as they sat down in their seats.

"Yeah." All three of them replied back with no energy.

"Why are you three so tired?" Leyan curiously asked as she put down the bowl of rice for the three.

"Just a lot of work today... Oh yeah I almost forgot, Xiaoyun I found few law experts that can help you regarding the law codes and dealing with those sentences for the prisoners." Yuqi replied back as everyone started eating.

"Oh really? " Xiaoyun looked a little surprise by the news.

"Yeah really. They even had their former judge document and everything. So they are legit." Yuqi paused for a second to finish chewing her food.

"But when I ask them what would the insurgent and scientist be sentence under the country\'s law, they told me it\'s death sentence."

The table fell into silent as everyone looked surprised at Yuqi except Yueyue.

"All of them? Are you sure?" Xiaoyun asked again to make sure.

"Yes really. Yueyue you tell me, what is the law behind taking another person\'s life? And for treason?" Yuqi asked.
