When the apocalypse comes, salted fish will only make bubbles

Tang Shisen returned to the base and was just about to make arrangements to find Li Ying when the guard sent a simple invitation.

When he took it, he was surprised to see that it was an invitation letter from the Lord of Fancheng, inviting the leaders of major groups to come to the Lord's Mansion to discuss matters.

Only then did he remember that he had neglected some major event because of Li Ying. Fancheng was going to move the city eastward, and the lord of Fancheng had thought of it together with him.

The purpose of this invitation was clear, whether to stay or go, and the Lord of Fancheng wanted to hear their opinions on many follow-up matters.

After reading the invitation, Tang Shisen suddenly felt that his worth had skyrocketed. He couldn't care less about finding Li Ying, so he turned around to make preparations.

"Boss Tang!" The guard suddenly stopped him.

"Anything else?"

The guard scratched his head, thought for a while and said, "The guy who just sent the invitation just asked me about someone. I think it's best to tell you."

"Who are you asking about?" Tang Shisen's eyes lit up, thinking he had news about Li Ying.

The guard replied truthfully: "Well, I was just asking if we met a young man named Pei when we were out. He said he was from the Imperial Capital. He sounded a bit like Pei Yang to me."

There was only one person named Pei in their base, and he followed the boss every day. When people asked him, he remembered that Pei Yang was from the Imperial Capital, so he thought it was Pei Yang who was being asked.

It was just asking about others, but it turned out to be a young man named Pei from the Imperial City. Tang Shisen's nerves were immediately aroused. Could it be that the Imperial City sent someone here to look for him?

He knew that there were not many coincidences in the world. He came to Fancheng to inquire about the young master of the Pei family, and there happened to be such a man next to him, which seemed to confirm his previous guesses.

There is no need to doubt anymore, Pei Yang is the Pei family of the Imperial Capital!

Thinking of this, Tang Shisen felt happy in his heart. Fortunately, he was smart and foresight and saved Pei Yang when he was in trouble.

I am also glad that he has never treated Pei Yang badly, let alone let Li Ying embarrass him. Otherwise, if he offends Pei Yang, they will inevitably be suppressed after they go to the imperial capital. By then, they will only gain more than they lose, and their work will be in vain.

What he had to pay attention to was that the city lord's people were asking about the young master of the Pei family. Does this mean that in order to find him, the Pei family had put pressure on the city lord.

Thinking of the city lord, Tang Shisen frowned. Saving the Pei family was a top priority, and he would never let the city lord take it away.

"Did you tell him?" He stared at the doorman nervously, afraid that he would nod and say yes.

It was hard for him to imagine how many pairs of eyes would be staring at Shuguang Base once the news spread that the Pei family's young master was here.

"No, Boss Tang, I didn't say anything. I asked him to go and inquire elsewhere."

The guard was a smart man and someone close to Mr. Tang. How could he dare to talk to outsiders casually, so he got over it with a few vague words.

After hearing what he said, Tang Shisen let out a breath. Fortunately, the news didn't leak out. As long as he contacted God's people first, not even the Lord of Fancheng could take away his opportunity.

"You did a good job, I know, go and do your work!"

After knowing the news, Tang Shisen understood more and more why Pei Yang had to hide his identity. He was a sweetheart, and everyone who met him wanted to taste the sweetness, let alone please the Pei family in the imperial capital.

Therefore, Tang Shisen, who knew he had found a treasure, had completely forgotten about looking for Li Ying. He suddenly felt that he was not attentive enough to Pei Yang and had to find a way to make up for it.

So, he ran to the logistics department and asked someone to add thick bedding to Pei Yang. He also went to the cafeteria in person to explain that he had opened a small stove specifically for Pei Yang.

Of course, the most important thing was to send his cronies to invite the most famous doctor in Fancheng to treat Pei Yang's back injury.

He had to become nervous. He had to let the young master of the Pei family go back intact. He had to show his sincerity and importance.

He protects the young master of the Pei family well, and the Pei family of the Imperial Capital will naturally protect his stability in the Imperial Capital. This deal is definitely a good deal.

……

Pei Yang watched Tang Shisen leave with mixed feelings. He was happy that Li Ying left without saying goodbye, which surprised him the most.

Unexpectedly, the person he had tried so hard to squeeze away from Tang Shisen suddenly became self-aware and could not bear to be ostracized and laughed at by everyone, so he finally voluntarily quit this awkward threesome.

No matter what Tang Shisen thought, no matter whether Li Ying would come back or not, his departure always separated the two of them.

In this way, without a competitor, he could win over Tang Shisen's heart with peace of mind, and it would be best to replace him during his emotional gap.

What worries him is Tang Shisen's attitude towards him. He really didn't help much when killing zombies, and he didn't take good care of himself, which distracted Tang Shisen. Therefore, he could feel the other party's neglect, but it was just because of his fake identity. , just didn’t show it.

But not long after returning to the base, this indifference changed completely. One moment, he added clothes and blankets to keep him warm, and the next moment, he brought tea, water, and soup. Before leaving, he even had someone specially invite him. A bruise doctor came to treat his back injury.

Pei Yang knew that he was being treated favorably, but he had never gone to such a great extent. This made him both flattered and felt unreal.

While worrying about gains and losses, Pei Yang suddenly had a bad premonition. Could this change be related to his fake identity?

Did Tang Shisen think that he was the legendary young master of the Pei family?

But how did he come to the conclusion? He never admitted it from beginning to end, or he... heard something again!

Tang Shisen was kind to him, which was originally a good thing, but because of his guilty conscience, Pei Yang was particularly unreliable.

After all, he is not yet irreplaceable in Tang Shisen's heart. If one day his false identity is revealed, Tang Shisen will burn him as a fake young master.

The more he thought about it, the more frightened he became. Pei Yang felt that he could no longer boil the frog in warm water. He had to find a way to do something, something that Tang Shisen would always feel owed to him. He had to find a life-saving charm for himself.

And it must be done within a short period of time.

This involves another news that worries him, that is, Fancheng's eastward move announcement. Once this news comes out, Tang Shisen will probably speed up his return to the imperial capital, leaving him little time to act.

And where did the information about his identity come from? It must not come from someone who has met the real young master of the Pei family, otherwise he may not even have a chance to redeem himself.

Pei Yang was riding a tiger and couldn't get off, so he had to bite the bullet and continue to pretend, but after that, he became even more sleepless and anxious.

What depressed him the most was that at this juncture, his waist was not strong enough. It was difficult for him to even walk out of the base, let alone do anything.

For this purpose, he could only take chances and hope that the source of the information would be as fake as him and leave no trace, so that Tang Shisen's trust could be maintained longer...
