Long Yu glanced at the familiar surroundings and nodded. "You are right. This is where Ling Yi and his men live."
Shi Xuan was surprised when he heard their conversation and said, "Ling Yi's business must be very profitable. I heard this villa area is extremely expensive and can only be purchased with supplies, not points."
Yao Ran nodded in agreement, "The last I heard, Ling Yi had become the number one black market dealer in Juncheng Military Base. I think he might even have connections with wealthy and influential people from other bases."
Hearing this, Shi Xuan clicked his tongue and commented, "You really can't judge people by their appearances."
As they talked, Wu Lian parked his car in front of a three-story villa. After they got out, he said, "Miss Yao, Commander Xu prepared this villa for you."
Looking at the luxurious villa, Yao Ran could tell it wasn't recently built but rather a remnant from the era before the end of the world.
She smiled and said, "I really like it. Please thank Uncle Xu for me."
Wu Lian chuckled and pointed to the villa across the street. He then said, "Commander Xu and his family stay there. You can thank him personally later."
Following his gaze, Yao Ran looked at the villa and noticed it was even grander and more luxurious than the one given to her. Raising her eyebrows slightly, she remarked, "Uncle Xu is very thoughtful."
Now that he had shown her the villa, Wu Lian said, "Miss Yao, I still have some tasks to attend to. Please enjoy your stay here. If you need anything, you can find me at the First Army barracks."
Yao Ran nodded, "Thank you, Captain Wu."
Wu Lian smiled before adding, "Captain Long, Brother Shi, I will visit you later."
After Wu Lian left, Long Yu looked at the villa and said, "For Commander Xu to make such arrangements, it seems he needs something from you."
Yao Ran chuckled, "Well, we will just wait and see what Uncle Xu wants. For now, let's head inside and get cleaned up. My body was so dirty, and it was really uncomfortable."
Leaving those words behind, she walked toward the villa.
Standing at the villa gate, Shi Xuan glanced at the villa across the street and said, "Captain, someone is watching us."
Long Yu's expression darkened as he stared at the second-floor windows of the villa across the street. A few seconds later, he sneered and said, "Let them watch. If they dare make a move, we will pay them back with interest."
After saying that, Long Yu and Shi Xuan entered the villa.
Meanwhile, on the second floor of the villa across the street, Xu Ruihan stood by the floor-to- ceiling windows, gazing at the villa where Yao Ran and the others had just entered.
Noticing his friend's bad mood, Mu Xichen looked up from his laptop. Feeling curious, he approached him and asked, "What are you staring at?"
Xu Ruihan glanced at him and replied, "Someone I know just moved into the villa across the road."
Mu Xichen's interest was piqued when he heard this. Looking out the window, he asked, "It's rare for you to care about someone. Is it a woman?"
