National development: I build a base on rock beasts

Chapter 202 Xu Ao's Request

"Boss, if I miss this opportunity, even if one day in the future, I can really stand with you at the highest point in the entire universe, I will still be a useless person after all!"

Since Wu Yong's decision can no longer be changed, what Duan Ming can do is to fully support his decision.

For the next night, the door of the villa was open, and Duan Ming was sitting in the living room, waiting for someone who might come in.

At five o'clock the next morning, Duan Ming had been sitting here for eight hours, but no one came into the villa.

Footsteps came from the stairs, Duan Ming looked up, and saw Tang Yaqing who had walked back and forth countless times that night.

Holding a cup of tea in her hand, she walked over to Duan Ming and sat down.

"After all, it is a matter of life and death, so don't pay too much attention to it."

Duan Ming understood that this was Tang Yaqing comforting himself, he smiled and hugged Tang Yaqing in his arms.

"Is your husband a stingy person in your heart? I knew a long time ago that I might not be able to wait alone for this night. In the current situation, I am not disappointed at all."

Listening to Duan Ming's narration, Tang Yaqing only felt that she was the happiest woman in the world. Her husband was such a person who was not surprised by honor or humiliation and had long-term plans. The man blocked it for himself.

Just when Duan Ming was about to bow his head and kiss Tang Yaqing's forehead, there was a light cough from the door.

"Ahem! Should I come back later?"

Someone bumped into her intimacy, Tang Yaqing blushed and broke out of Duan Ming's arms, and ran straight up the stairs.

Duan Ming recognized the person who came, his name was Xu Ao, he was one of the heirs of the Xu family, and he was also the family of Earth Star back then.The leader of the younger generation that the enterprise left on the Fire Rock Beast.

At that time, a child on the Fire Rock Beast accidentally bumped into Xu Ao, Duan Ming subdued Xu Ao by means of thunder.

Duan Ming still remembered that when he asked Xu Ao why he wanted to stay in the Duan family, Xu Ao answered like this.

"I want to see with my own eyes what kind of family can give a child such a sense of belonging. I also want to experience for myself how your Duan family is different from other families!"

Since Xu Ao joined the Duan family, he has been following Duan Ming tepidly, and has long been conquered by Duan Ming's charisma.

But in words, Xu Ao has always refused to admit this.

He walked in front of Duan Ming very casually, he didn't look like a subordinate at all, instead he sat on the sofa like a friend without Duan Ming's permission.

"Are you here to see my joke? No one responded to the notice issued by a Patriarch like me?"

Xu Ao smiled, a hint of pride indeed flashed across his face.

"If this is a word from the head of my Xu family, it is absolutely impossible for no one to come."

Duan Ming's face was slightly displeased: "Now that you have seen it and laughed at it, if there is nothing else, go back and rest."

The meaning of seeing off the guests could not be more obvious, but Xu Ao did not leave, instead he took out a piece of paper from his arms and put it on the table.

Duan Ming stretched out his hand to take it, and glanced at it. This is Xu Ao's resume!
It's a resume, but in fact it only has simple personal information. In the column of the introduction, there are six characters of "members of the Duan family" impressively written.

In the entire resume, there is no mention of his background in the Xu family, which also means that Xu Ao seems to regard himself as a real member of the Duan family!
"Do you want to participate in the experiment of fusing superpower evolutionary metal?"

Xu Ao asked without answering, "Why? Is it not possible? Or do you think I am not a member of the Duan family?"

It was the same question Duan Ming asked when Xu Ao joined the Duan family.

"Give me a reason!"

Xu Ao took out a pack of cigarettes from his pocket, waved his hand towards Duan Ming: "Do you mind?"

Duan Ming nodded, Xu Ao lit a cigarette, took a deep breath and said.

"To be honest, when I first joined your Duan family, I just wanted to see whether your current prestige was just for show or deserved."

"Oh? You see clearly now?"

"I see clearly, I have to admit that at the same age, you became the patriarch of the family and brought a commoner family to this point. If it were me, I would definitely not be able to do it."

If these words were spoken by other people, they would be flattering to some extent, but Duan Ming believed that they were definitely Xu Ao's sincere words.

"Since I recognized you from the bottom of my heart, my only thought was not to be left too far behind by you as much as possible, but now you have superpowers and have evolved superpowers, as if no matter how hard I try to catch up, I am still far away from you It's getting farther and farther."

In fact, not only Xu Ao felt this way, but every member of the Duan family felt this way. Today's Duan Ming is no longer in the same class as them.

"Just when I was almost desperate, I had this opportunity. I had no reason not to seize it. This is the only opportunity that can narrow the gap between me and you! Do you dare to let me give it a try?"

This provocative sentence made the corners of Duan Ming's mouth twitch slightly.

"You have to think carefully. As long as you stay in the Duan family for another two years, I believe that when you return to your family, you will become the only successor to the head of the family. If you participate in this experiment, you may not survive. that time."

Flipping over his palm, looking at the cigarette butt that was about to go out between his fingers, Xu Ao took another deep breath.

"A person's whole life is like a cigarette. If you put it there and burn it quietly, it will indeed prolong the time, but it will be boring. It is better to meet the challenge, at least it has flashed!"

Although Duan Ming and Xu Ao are the same age, Duan Ming seems to have seen Xu Ao's self in the past, the self who had nothing but was beaten to death and refused to admit defeat!

"Go back and get ready. You must have been up all night. You still have a few hours to rest."

Xu Ao knew that Duan Ming agreed to his request, stood up with satisfaction, and said something to Duan Ming before leaving.

"Thank you, I won't let you down."

Two hours later, Professor Dugu Er walked into the villa with sleepy eyes.

"Don't talk yet! Let me guess! Is there no one who wants to participate?"

Seeing Professor Duguer sitting opposite him, Duan Ming handed the professor the cup of tea he had not yet drank.

"I've let you down, there are two of them, and I think they are the ones most likely to endure the pain in my Duan family, because they all have their own firm beliefs!"
