Chapter 306 Your Reward
After arriving at the Shuguang Building, the special forces members returned to the special forces compound. Zhao Liying, Han Xiaoling, and Chen Xiaoke went to the canteen on the 5th floor of Shuguang City for lunch. The canteen has two floors, on the 5th and 6th floors of the Shuguang Building, and is divided into northern and southern cuisines. The three of them are all from the north and are not used to southern cuisine. Sometimes when they don't want to cook, they eat at the canteen on the 5th floor.
Han Xiaoling usually eats at Li Chenglong's house, since she's his adopted sister and has also recognized Qi Guoan and Qin Fangyu as her godparents. However, she figured Li Chenglong and Yunlan would have a lot to talk about today, so she didn't come along. When Li Chenglong and Yunlan returned home, no one was there. Firstly, around noon, Qin Fangyu had told Yunlan that she and her husband were taking Hao Hao to stay with them for a couple of days, so Hao Hao wouldn't be staying. Secondly, the nanny, Song Yixin, had already gone home by this time.
As Li Yunhao grew older, Song Yixin told Li Chenglong a few days ago that she wanted to resign. She was originally skilled at taking care of postpartum women and breastfeeding infants. Now that Yunlan had stopped breastfeeding for almost three months and Li Yunhao was 10 months old, the work ahead was no longer within her area of expertise, so she wanted to leave.
With Li Chenglong's support, she recently opened a training course to train a group of professionals to help new mothers and babies in Shuguang City. Although Li Chenglong and Yunlan were reluctant to see her go, they respected her decision. However, Song Yixin also mentioned that she wouldn't leave until the end of January and would recommend a girl she knew to work as a nanny at Li Chenglong's house. She would bring the girl over in the next couple of days to let Li Chenglong and Yunlan see if she was suitable; if so, she could replace Song Yixin.
As soon as he got home, Li Chenglong decided to take a shower first. He had poured some blood from a blood pack on himself to scare Yunlan, and had also torn his clothes, so he definitely needed to wash and change. Yunlan, on the other hand, went to the kitchen to cook. During her pregnancy and recently, she had learned a lot of cooking skills from her mother and Song Yixin, and her culinary skills had improved significantly. After showering, Li Chenglong changed into lighter clothes. The Shuguang Building had central air conditioning; the room temperature was 28 to 30 degrees Celsius in winter and 24 degrees Celsius in summer, always keeping everyone in a comfortable state.
Yunlan had also prepared dinner. When there were many people in their family, they would eat a more lavish dinner, but if it was just the two of them, the meal would be relatively simple. Yunlan took out some pre-cooked high-grade Dawn Rice from the storage area of her psionic space, chopped some exotic beast cured meat, and added an exotic beast egg. She then made a lot of fried rice for herself and Li Chenglong. The exotic beast eggs were very large, each weighing over 500g, so there didn't seem to be much rice in the fried rice; it was mostly eggs and meat chunks.
After sitting down, Li Chenglong smelled the fried rice and smiled, saying, "It smells delicious; I'm sure it tastes great too." Yun Lan didn't eat her portion, but instead slowly sat sideways on Li Chenglong's lap, picked up a spoon, and began feeding him, just like feeding a child. Li Chenglong was exasperated: "I'm not paralyzed or disabled; why do I need you to feed me?" Yun Lan smiled and said, "You behaved very well today; this is my reward for you. Don't talk; just eat quickly."
So, fed by Yunlan, Li Chenglong finished a serving of at least 500g of premium Dawn rice fried rice in less than five minutes. After finishing, he drank a whole bottle of water in one go, feeling like he had come back to life. Yunlan then went to eat her own fried rice, eating more slowly while watching Dawn TV programs and chatting with Li Chenglong. After finishing, Yunlan first video-called her mother, checked on her son, and then went to take a shower. As for cleaning the table and washing the dishes, that was definitely Li Chenglong's responsibility.
While Yunlan was taking a shower, Li Chenglong, having finished cleaning, went to his study to carefully read Wang Jie's notes and summaries of the afternoon meeting. Finding nothing seriously wrong, he sent them to the Eastern Theater Command and the Anxi Base Headquarters in the name of Dawn City and the Dawn Army. Next, he used the crystal fusion device in the space factory to begin fusing low-grade crystals. A major battle was imminent, and the Dawn Army urgently needed a batch of energy rifles and crystal battle swords, all of which required a significant amount of mid- to high-grade crystals.
After the meeting this afternoon, Wu Gang, Zheng Aiguo, and Qi Guoan approached Li Chenglong. They had seen the Dragon Fang Daggers used by the special forces and really liked them, wondering if they could equip their three divisions with some as well. They knew they were expensive, but equipping their leaders at the regimental level and above with one seemed reasonable, since a well-used Dragon Fang Dagger was far superior to a crystal lightsaber or crystal battle knife.
Each Dragon Fang Dagger requires one purple crystal, the highest level crystal that the crystal fusion machine can fuse. While Dawn City doesn't have many purple crystals at the moment, Li Chenglong doesn't mind spending more or less for better combat. He immediately used the space factory to manufacture 300 Dragon Fang Daggers, keeping 20 for himself to give away, and distributing the rest the next day. Besides the daggers, ornately decorated and durable scabbards were also manufactured, all made from level 10 beast hides, making them extremely useful.
Besides the Dragon Fang Dagger, Li Chenglong also manufactured a batch of energy rifles and more than a dozen super crystal generators, as well as several hundred crystal lightsabers. The production lines in the space factory are fully automated. Once the quantity is set, enough crystals are put into the crystal input point, and enough materials are put into the feed inlet, you don't need to worry about it anymore. Specialized robots will handle the processing, and you only need to collect the materials later.
After he finished setting the parameters and came out of the study, he saw Yunlan in her pajamas, using a hairdryer to dry her smooth, beautiful hair. She hadn't cut her hair much since giving birth, and it had grown quite long. Plus, it was very thick, looking like a black waterfall from a distance. Li Chenglong went over and took the hairdryer, carefully drying it for her. Yunlan looked at herself in the mirror and smiled, saying, "My hair really is getting long. It won't be convenient for fighting like this. Come with me to the hairdresser tomorrow; I want to get it cut shorter."
Li Chenglong nodded: "Okay, we'll go to the barbershop on the commercial street after lunch tomorrow. There's a top-notch hairstylist there." They chatted for a while longer, then Li Chenglong carried Yunlan into the bedroom, and the motion-sensor lights in the living room automatically turned off. Today, Yunlan was very proactive, like a female leopard, constantly demanding more. She said breathlessly, "After this year is over, I want to have another child for you. Do you want a girl or a boy?"
Li Chenglong helped Yunlan up, his large hands exploring her body. After a while, he said, "It's a girl, isn't it? A boy and a girl, hehe." The two of them were busy for over an hour before Li Chenglong carried Yunlan into the bathroom. Because Yunlan was quite exhausted, she asked Li Chenglong to help her take a bath. It was already midnight when they finished bathing, and considering they had work to do the next day, they quickly went to sleep.
