First-Year Internship—And You Went to Site 749 to Contain Monsters?!

”If there’s anything you need, just come find me. As long as I can help, I’ll go through fire and water without hesitation, Secretary Qiu!”

Secretary Qiu didn’t know whether to laugh or cry for a moment: ”Alright, alright, go have fun.”

Lei Xiao: ”Got it.”

She bounced back over to Lu Ding’s side.

Lu Ding gave her emotional support and praised her: ”Very good, well done. Fundamental change starts with small things. I’ve seen your determination. I didn’t expect you could change so quickly. I underestimated you.”

”Just this one small thing is enough to see that you’re kind, smart, talented, and have limitless potential.”

This coaxed Lei Xiao completely.

Her head tilted up.

Practically becoming an embryo with how curled up she was.Wrapped around his finger, completely handled.

The main strategy was exactly this: the stick and the sweet date approach.

Lu Ding’s praise was more than enough for Lei Xiao!!!

Lei Xiao was so happy she couldn’t close her mouth: ”Actually, I’m pretty good too, very kind.”

Lu Ding: ”Mm, I can tell.”

Lei Xiao: ”Hehehe, right?”

As they spoke.

A staff member came up, holding a remote control.

”Grand Duke Lu, this is the satellite launcher. This is our Great Han’s first satellite to Demon Province. How about you...”

Seeing how respected Lu Ding was, every single person from Great Han looked at him with reverence in their eyes.

Lei Xiao was filled with yearning.

When would she have a day like this?

Of course, she absolutely wasn’t thinking about that satellite launcher. Absolutely not wanting to press it.

It was just that her eyes couldn’t quite look away.

Lu Ding took it.

In a development Lei Xiao completely didn’t anticipate, he directly handed it to her: ”Here, you press it.”

Lei Xiao: !!!!

”Can I? Can I really???”

Lu Ding stood in the sunlight with that flawless face, whose smile alone was enough to charm all living beings, and said: ”Of course you can. You’re my direct subordinate. You represent me. If you can’t, who can?”

Lei Xiao looked at Lu Ding standing in the light.

For a moment, she was dazed.

Lu Ding swore he really hadn’t deliberately tried to build himself up. It was mainly that The heavens had given him such an outrageously overpowered remodeled appearance.

Lei Xiao listened to Lu Ding’s words, and they echoed continuously in her ears.

’You’re my direct subordinate, you represent me... represent me...’

In this moment, a seed had quietly been planted in Lei Xiao’s heart.

She was Lu Ding’s direct subordinate. She represented Lu Ding.

Lu Ding was a hero of Great Han, respected from top to bottom throughout Great Han.

She too had to be respected from top to bottom throughout Great Han.

She too had to become a hero of Great Han, make her parents proud of her, and absolutely not lose the face of those five words, ”Grand Duke Lu’s direct subordinate.”

Although Lei Xiao’s personality couldn’t possibly change too much in such a short time.

Toward Great Han and toward the 749 Bureau, she already had a standard of differential treatment far distinct from other countries and factions.

The bridging role Lu Ding played in this made Lei Xiao’s sense of belonging to Great Han grow even stronger!!!

Lei Xiao took the remote control.

She was still a bit nervous inside.

Asking the staff member, her words had become somewhat more polite: ”Hello, may I ask when I can press it?”

The staff member was a little flattered: ”You can do it now, but you need to press the black one first. The red button will flash. When it stops flashing, then you press the red one.”

Lei Xiao held the remote: ”Oh oh, okay.”

Her heart was pounding.

She pressed the black one.

A mechanical voice rang out across the entire area.

[Launch preparations complete. Equipment calibration complete. Area clearance alarm beginning.]

[Woo~~~~~~~~~~~~]

Lei Xiao glanced at Lu Ding: ”Brother Lu, I’m a bit nervous.”

Lu Ding smiled: ”You fight life-and-death battles every day without getting nervous, what’s there to be nervous about here? When you took my Human King’s Loose Hands head-on, why weren’t you nervous? That power of mine was way bigger than this.”

Lei Xiao: ”This is different.”

”That one, I had some idea in my heart about, I’m used to dying. This one, I have no idea at all. I’ve only ever seen it on TV before. Now I never expected I could actually participate in person.”

Lu Ding took a few steps back: ”Just press it already.”

He was also a bit nervous.

Who had ever watched a satellite launch from this close?

But in front of Lei Xiao, he definitely couldn’t show it.

Lei Xiao saw him step back and followed with a step back of her own.

Lu Ding took another step back.

Lei Xiao took another step back too.

Lu Ding: .......

”Press it!”

Lei Xiao: ”Brother Lu, don’t back away, I’m a bit scared.”

Lu Ding was speechless: ”I’m not backing away. Press it now.”

Only then did Lei Xiao press the red button, which was waiting while flashing.

In an instant.

Boom, boom boom boom boom...

The rocket carrying the satellite could be seen rumbling as it whooshed out, just like a firework rocket, thick smoke and dust kicking up and surging forward.

Lei Xiao used her Spiritual Energy to open a protective barrier to block it.

She glanced out of the corner of her eye.

Huh!

Where’s Brother Lu!?

She turned to look.

There was Lu Ding, having already used Celestial Shift to retreat far into the distance.

Only the silly Lei Xiao remained in place.

She ran over.

”Brother Lu, didn’t you say you wouldn’t run?”

Lu Ding: ”I didn’t run. I relocated.”

Lei Xiao: .......

She didn’t dwell on the matter. Watching the satellite shrink in the sky, Lei Xiao said: ”How come this is different from what I’ve seen? Isn’t it supposed to slowly ascend?”

Lu Ding: ”Hahahahahahaha...”

”Those ones you’ve seen, they have ordinary people sitting inside, so it can’t be too fast. If it’s too fast, the people inside can’t take it. But this one being launched now, there’s nobody inside, it’s remote-controlled, so it just whooshes straight up.”

Lei Xiao listened, a bit of confusion in her eyes: ”The times are advancing, Great Han is getting better. Brother Lu, do you think I’ll fall behind?”

Lu Ding looked her up and down: ”No. With that modeling of yours, even if you talked less and wore a feed sack, it’d be a haute couture limited edition. You won’t fall behind.”

Although Lei Xiao was a female body with a male heart, her looks really did have something to them.

High nose bridge, big eyes, deep eye sockets, no makeup but with natural eye shadow, a pure rich-featured face, paired with a center-parted short haircut, and she was also very tall.

Needless to say, she was quite beautiful.

Still a high-EQ comment. Hearing these words, Lei Xiao nodded, satisfied: ”That’s fine then.”

”When the time comes, I’ll go make a few nice outfits.”

As she spoke, she even eyed Lu Ding’s scholar-warrior sleeves with her gaze, clearly getting ideas.

But her figure couldn’t pull them off.

Lu Ding said: ”No need for all that trouble. When the time comes, have the domestic designers design something for you. After they send their stuff back, they can bring it to you.”

Compared to these ancient girl’s clothes, with all their sashes and ribbons, Lei Xiao preferred modern styles.

”That works too.”

”Brother Lu, so should we get ready to head to Thunder Roar Hall?”

Lei Xiao said while rubbing her fists, already itching to throw herself into battle. How long had it been since she’d fought? Half a day, at least. Her hands were really itching.

Lu Ding: ”It’s open?”

Lei Xiao shook her head: ”Not yet. But I’m thinking, if we go early, we can pick a few unlucky ones to beat up for fun. Perfect warm-up. Doing stretches before a big battle is still very necessary.”

Lu Ding’s eyes turned as he pondered: ”Then wait for me to empty the spirit stones from the coffin and free up the space, and we’ll head out.”
