Chapter 1402 Meeting
Chen Mu scrolled through his phone while pondering his next move.
The luxurious resort has been almost entirely booked out by tens of thousands of soldiers who have returned for vacation.
Chen Mu decided to skip that area for now, as he didn't want to compete with his subordinates for food if there were too many people. With only the boss present, his subordinates wouldn't have as much fun.
Just like team building or dinner parties, the atmosphere always feels a bit awkward when the boss or mentor comes along.
Anyway, I got enough rest yesterday.
It's time to gather my thoughts and move on.
At this moment, Xu Yueji told Chen Mu that Ye Changsheng was outside the villa and wanted to see him.
"Chief Night? Let him in."
Chen Mu adjusted his chair, put his phone in the drawer, straightened his clothes, and looked like he was seriously discussing business.
Based on Chen Mu's speculation, Ye Changsheng came to find him most likely because of Shen Hanmeng's matter.
A dozen seconds later, Chen Mu's door was pushed open from the outside.
Ye Changsheng walked in.
Before Chen Mu could speak, Ye Changsheng said first:
"Mr. Chen, didn't you ask me about Dr. Shen this morning?"
After I finished handing over to the army, I went to the outskirts of the city and visited Dr. Shen.
His condition has improved a lot, and his thinking has returned to normal.
I explained the current situation to him and talked with him for over an hour, also telling him that you wanted to see Mr. Chen.
After learning about the current situation, Dr. Shen thought for a while and then told me that he wanted to see me as soon as possible!
I said no problem, come with me, I'll take you to see Boss Chen.
but……"
At this point, Ye Changsheng stopped, somewhat embarrassed to say it aloud.
Chen Mu asked in confusion, "Why did you stop talking? Is there some difficulty? I'm right here, you can come see me anytime you want."
“That’s not the reason,” Ye Changsheng said. “Shen Hanmeng might mean that you should go and see him.”
I really feel bad, because Mr. Chen, you revived Shen Hanmeng and spent a lot of time and effort on everything.
Logically speaking, Shen Hanmeng should have come to thank him in person; there's no reason for you to go to him.
However, Shen Hanmeng still had some psychological barriers to it.
Now he can only live in the wilderness. Whenever he gets close to a city or other slightly cramped places, he trembles and sweats profusely.
I had him try it, and after walking a few steps toward the city, he almost fainted. This situation probably won't improve anytime soon.
So, Mr. Chen, you might have to make a trip there..."
Ye Changsheng became somewhat embarrassed as he spoke.
Upon hearing this, Chen Mu said, "Oh dear, I thought it was something serious. Is that all? It's nothing, I'll just go find him."
I'm not an old-fashioned person; I don't care about all the formalities. I'm a pragmatist; as long as the problem is solved, that's enough.
Don't be embarrassed or think it's your duty or anything like that. Don't be so formal.
"Well then, I'm free right now, so could you take me to find Shen Hanmeng?"
Seeing that Chen Mu didn't care at all, Ye Changsheng breathed a sigh of relief and admired Chen Mu even more.
Despite his young age and high position, he was not arrogant. To be honest, Ye Changsheng himself felt that he wouldn't have been as humble as Chen Mu when he was younger.
Chen Mu stood up from his chair. He learned from Ye Changsheng that Shen Han dreamed of seeing him as soon as possible.
Especially after learning about the current situation, Shen Hanmeng said that she wanted to see him "as soon as possible".
This means that Shen Hanmeng must have something urgent to tell Chen Mu.
Judging from Shen Hanmeng's past performances, he is imaginative, has many ideas, and is always focused on solving problems.
He's a doer!
If someone is in such a hurry to see me, then there must be something urgent going on.
Chen Mu didn't hesitate either. He and Ye Changsheng left the villa and then took to the air.
The two flew side by side toward the desolate wilderness.
A dozen seconds later, below was a vast, open plain.
Chen Mu was very familiar with this place because Shen Hanmeng had come here two days ago.
From a great distance, Chen Mu could see Shen Hanmeng's location high in the sky.
"He's still here? If I remember correctly, he stopped here two days ago," Chen Mu said curiously.
Ye Changsheng nodded. "Yes. Shen Hanmeng has refused to leave since she woke up."
I offered to build him a room, but he refused, saying the room was too cramped.
I suggested building one using eerie energy, but he refused. He just wanted to stay in the open, in the wilderness.
There's nothing we can do but let him be.
Chen Mu saw Shen Hanmeng sitting on the ground on the wide plain, looking at the distant sky.
Shen Hanmeng's gaze was calm; perhaps in this wilderness, he felt a long-lost sense of vastness and tranquility.
"Let's go down," Chen Mu said.
The two leaped from the sky and landed steadily behind Shen Hanmeng.
Sensing the presence behind her, Shen Hanmeng turned around.
Ye Changsheng said, "Shen Hanmeng, Boss Chen is here to see you."
When Shen Hanmeng first saw Chen Mu, a hint of surprise appeared in her eyes.
Ye Changsheng had told him that Boss Chen was young and promising.
But Shen Hanmeng felt that someone who could dominate the bizarre apocalypse couldn't possibly be too young. Even someone in their forties or fifties would be considered young and promising in the face of such achievements.
Therefore, he estimated that Chen Mu was around forty or fifty years old.
However, when Shen Hanmeng met Chen Mu, his appearance of being around twenty years old was truly beyond her expectations.
After a moment or two of stunned silence, Shen Hanmeng quickly came to her senses.
He immediately smiled and reached out to Chen Mu, saying, "Boss Chen is truly a young hero; you've astonished me to the core."
I'm so grateful to Mr. Chen for bringing me back to life. I'm extremely thankful! If it weren't for you, I probably would never have…
Chen Mu smiled and waved his hand, "Dr. Shen, you're too kind. It was nothing at all. I've also heard Chief Ye mention Dr. Shen's remarkable feat, and I was deeply impressed."
Their first meeting was marked by mutual flattery.
Although Shen Hanmeng is the chief scientist, he is not the kind of person who is arrogant because of his talent, nor is he a "scientific madman" who only knows how to do scientific research.
Shen Hanmeng is also adept at interpersonal relationships and social interactions.
This is why Shen Hanmeng strongly recommended listing Xingqiu as the top star.
People who excel in a particular field often have high emotional intelligence.
After exchanging a few pleasantries, Chen Mu had a very good impression of Shen Hanmeng, and Shen Hanmeng felt the same way.
Chen Mu didn't waste any more words and went straight to the point, "Dr. Shen, Chief Ye said you were in a hurry to see me? You've just been resurrected, you should take good care of yourself, there's no need to rush to see me."
Your physical and mental health is our greatest asset; taking good care of yourself is the most important thing.
While getting to the point, Chen Mu also casually expressed his concern, so as not to seem too ulterior motive.
