Chapter 162: Beautiful CEO Guangbei Jia

Chapter 162: Beautiful CEO Guangbei JiaAlex carefully examined the surveillance footage on the screen, including cameras facing the main gate, walls, and various guard posts. There were almost no blind spots along the perimeter walls, ensuring comprehensive coverage of crucial locations within the safe zone.

Below the surveillance screens, five staff members were sitting, attentively monitoring the situation within the safe zone. The walkie-talkie intermittently buzzed with reports from various guard posts.

Suddenly, the door to the meeting room, situated to the east of the hall, swung open. A group of well-dressed men and women emerged, engrossed in a heated argument. The entire hall became noisy.

Several people in suits were arguing vehemently, their faces flushed. It seemed like they were discussing something of great importance.

Shen Han hurriedly stood up and walked to the door, addressing a middle-aged woman and a middle-aged man who had walked out of the meeting room first, "General Guang, Dad, we're back from the mission with Captain Gu. We've encountered some difficulties during the mission."

The middle-aged man, upon seeing Shen Han, immediately approached with concern and asked, "Han, did the mission go smoothly this time? Let me see, are you injured? You didn't come back these past few days, almost scared me to death! You shouldn't go on such missions next time."

The robust middle-aged man in military attire beside the middle-aged man nonchalantly smiled and gave Shen Han a thumbs-up, saying, "Han is truly remarkable. Lao Shen, you should be proud to have such an excellent daughter."

The elegant middle-aged woman asked sternly, "Han, how did the mission go this time? Did you discover the source of the signal tower? Did you find any new gathering points?"

Shen Han nodded and reported seriously, "General Guang, we found a gathering point according to the signal source location. However, it had already been breached by a zombie tide. Moreover, we were attacked by a large group of mutated zombies. If Mr. Xiao and his team hadn't appeared in time to rescue us, we might have been wiped out! Even so, we still suffered casualties, losing half of our team."

"Too dangerous! Han, you absolutely cannot go on such risky missions again. You're a young girl, and engaging in such activities is too perilous," Shen Han's father angrily reiterated. This statement was not only directed at Shen Han but also intended for Guangbei Jia to hear. Guangbei Jia paid no mind; Shen Han's father, Shen Xudong, was currently one of her main supporters. Without the support of Shen Han's father, Guangbei Jia would face even greater challenges.

"What about those survivors who saved you?" Guangbei Jia was very interested in the group that could rescue people amid a massive attack of mutated zombies.

"They have all arrived at our base. They want to join us, and their leader is waiting for you in the reception room," Shen Han respectfully replied.

Guangbei Jia's face brightened, glancing at Alex sitting in the reception room, she continued, "How many people do they have? What is their strength?"

"They have a total of 16 people, all of them are mutants, and their combat capabilities are formidable," Shen Han continued to respond.

"Are these people reliable? Sixteen mutants constitute a very powerful force. If not handled properly, it could potentially bring trouble to us," the robust man in military attire, frowning, asked Alex, who was sipping tea.

"Their attitude is sincere, and they have lost their shelter. They are currently looking for a new refuge to join. I believe these people can be trusted. They also have great faith in the organization's leadership. Mr. Xiao, their leader, was a student at Jiangcheng University before.

He is willing to obey the organization's leadership and work together to establish a new human habitat," Shen Han affirmed.

"Excellent!" Guangbei Jia praised Shen Han and walked towards the reception room where Alex was.

Alex, watching the poised and affable middle-aged woman approaching, stood up with a smile, extending a gentlemanly handshake as Guangbei Jia shook hands.

"Thank you for assisting our reconnaissance team," Guangbei Jia expressed her gratitude to Alex.

Guangbei Jia had an elegant temperament, and while her appearance might not be described as beautiful, her high-quality lady's suit, impressive figure, and the aura of a successful person made her radiate an air of superiority. Moreover, being the primary figure in this gathering place, she held control over most of the power.

Alex shook hands sincerely and said, "The gratitude should be mine, General Guang. I've seen you on television before, and I deeply admire your talents and character. Your contribution to humanity, establishing shelters and creating new homes for survivors, is truly commendable."

Alex's words were actually a mix of truth and falsehood; Guangbei Jia's talents and character were indeed quite strong. However, her recent childish behavior seemed more like self- sacrifice for others.

Moments ago, Guangbei Jia had felt resentful due to the attacks from her opponents, considering it as being benevolent as a woman. Now, hearing Alex's praise and support, she immediately smiled brightly. Especially when Alex elevated these achievements to the level of benefiting all of humanity.

"It's only natural! As the highest-ranking entrepreneur in our Jiangcheng city, this is what I should do!" The more Guangbei Jia looked at Alex, the more satisfied she became. "Just now, Captain Shen mentioned that your combat capabilities are strong, and you sincerely want to join under our organization's leadership.

How about this, you and your people can still form a squad, with you as the captain, temporarily joining the City Defense Team responsible for city defense."

"General Guang..." The military man sitting next to Guangbei Jia couldn't help but frown, reminding her, "Isn't this arrangement a bit inappropriate? After all, they have just joined..."

The military man's words stopped short, but the meaning was already clear. Alex and his group had just joined the shelter and couldn't be fully trusted. Assigning them to form a separate squad, especially for critical city defense duties, seemed somewhat improper. "Captain Gu, our current enemy is the zombies. Among humans, we should have more trust!" Guangbei Jia spoke resolutely.

Hearing Guangbei Jia's words, Alex couldn't help but sneer inwardly. In this kind of apocalypse, it was essential to be more wary of humans than zombies. Zombies weren't the most frightening; it was the human nature in the apocalypse.

Guangbei Jia's naive understanding of human nature was precisely the reason for her repeated failures in internal struggles.

"General Guang, I disagree with your arrangement. Such a crucial appointment must go through the evaluation of our parliament!" Suddenly, a middle-aged man walked in from outside. He bore some resemblance to the previously encountered Lü Qi, with a noble appearance, dressed in a suit. However, his narrow, squinted eyes gave off a somewhat sinister vibe.
