As soon as Xiao Zheng finished speaking, the office fell into an endless silence. Even the surrounding air seemed to have suddenly become heavy, making it hard for people to breathe.
Lin Huayin's eyes were fixed on Xiao Zheng's face the whole time. Xiao Zheng also noticed Lin Huayin's gaze, but he was too embarrassed to lift his head.
Having been in Xin Ao for more than two years, Xiao Zheng knew that businessmen were businessmen. They could use money to do good deeds and help children. However, few people would waste a large amount of money and offend others.
Not only was it not in line with the nature of a pure businessman, but it was also something that ordinary people should never do.
Doing it would only bring harm and no benefit to oneself.
"Lift your head." Lin Huayin stared at Xiao Zheng calmly.
Xiao Zheng was like a young wife waiting to be married. He lifted his head shyly.
"What are you thinking about?" Lin Huayin asked.
"Nothing …" Xiao Zheng said awkwardly.
Faced with Xiao Zheng's vague answer, Lin Huayin did not probe further. She just asked expressionlessly, "This money is for the Long Formation?"
"…" Xiao Zheng suddenly understood. This woman knew everything before he went to look for her.
"Yes," Xiao Zheng explained. "I have something else to hide from you."
"Say it," Lin Huayin said.
"Actually, I joined the Long Formation last year. I'm their honorary instructor," Xiao Zheng said in a dignified manner.
"I know." Lin Huayin nodded.
"Then what do you think …" Xiao Zheng paused and said tactfully. "Actually, the current situation of the Long Formation is also very difficult. As their instructor, I have the ability to help. I can't just sit back and do nothing."
"Do you think I'm stingy and stingy?" Lin Huayin suddenly changed the topic and stared at Xiao Zheng.
"Hmm?" Xiao Zheng was slightly taken aback as he raised his head. "No."
"Then why are you acting pitiful in front of me? Are you worried that if I refuse you, I won't be able to explain it to the Long Formation? "Lin Huayin tore off Xiao Zheng's hypocritical mask and said resolutely.
"This …" Xiao Zheng said awkwardly. "I just don't think this is fair to you. And it might cause trouble. "
Lin Huayin looked at Xiao Zheng indifferently. "You did it, and you gave me the money. What trouble do I have?"
"Huh?" Xiao Zheng scratched his head. "I don't even have 500 million a year."
"The password is my birthday. The three cards on the bedside table can all be withdrawn or transferred, "Lin Huayin said calmly.
Xiao Zheng was dumbfounded.
This girl didn't even think about not giving him the money? This girl didn't even care about the two hundred million yuan?
No wonder she was a little unhappy just now. It turned out that he didn't ask her for money, but that he didn't borrow enough money.
For a moment, Xiao Zheng also felt that he was too stingy. He couldn't help but say with a cheeky smile, "Old Lin, no matter what, thank you this time. I'll work hard to earn money in the future. "
Lin Huayin waved her hand coldly and said, "I'm going to work."
Hearing that, Xiao Zheng nodded and bowed before leaving the office.
As soon as he stepped out of the door, he acted like a different person. He took out his phone and called Jiang Qing. "Pick me up in the car."
…
In the Long Formation compound.
Hundreds of members of the Long Formation gathered in the courtyard. Everyone stood straight and looked up at the flag in front of them at a 45-degree angle.
There were two flags. One was the bright red Five-Star Red Flag, and the other was the special flag of the Long Formation. The flagpole was half a head shorter than the red flagpole. It was clear to distinguish the importance of the flag. But for all the members of the Long Formation present, the Long Formation flag was no less important than the red flag. And they had a greater sense of belonging.
Because as long as they were still soldiers, as long as they were still serving in the army, they could see the red flag dyed red by the martyrs all the time. However, the Dragon Group's flag had been through the wind and rain for more than a month, and it had been lowered a few times.
Tonight, the flag full of passion was raised again. Under the illumination of countless strong lights, it looked so majestic and unrestrained. It symbolized the boldness and impulsiveness of the Hua Xia soldiers!
"Salute!"
The leader, Jiang Qing, stamped his feet and raised his right arm to give a standard military salute.
Usually, the red flag was in their left eye, and the Long Formation flag was in their right eye. But tonight, both of them only had the Long Formation flag in their eyes. Lofty sentiments!
By the window, Xiao Zheng, with both hands in his pockets, had a serious expression on his face. His eyes were calm and steady. He stared at the red flag and the Long Formation flag without blinking. Inexplicably, his blood was boiling. As if someone had suddenly given him a shot of adrenaline, his whole body was filled with strength.
His gaze swept across the group of elites in the army. There were many unfamiliar faces, but there were also many familiar gazes. When they gathered together, Xiao Zheng's thoughts returned to the days when he was in the army.
It was a time of carefree and full of memories. It might not be comfortable, but it was beautiful, happy, and full of strength.
If he had a choice, Xiao Zheng would be willing to return to the army and be a simple veteran who did nothing but eat, drink, and go to the toilet every day.
He would wake up facing the red flag in the morning and sleep peacefully at the foot of the red flag at night. There was no struggle, and there was no need to seduce people. He would be a happy soldier day after day.
"Xiao Zheng. Thank you. "
Standing next to Xiao Zheng, General Qi's eyes were kind, and his face was full of gratification.
Five hundred million in a year had saved General Qi's hard work. He was grateful and touched. But inexplicably, there was also a faint sense of sadness.
He did not know where the Long Formation would go in the future, but he hoped that in the days when he was in control of the Long Formation, he could train a few more soldiers, excellent soldiers like Xiao Zheng.
In fact, wasn't the lifelong goal of every excellent veteran soldier like General Qi in Hua Xia to train enough elites for the country?
He was like that, and so was General Jiang, Xiao Zheng's old chief.
"In business, this is my duty," Xiao Zheng said with a smile. "In personal matters, I am indebted to the Long Formation. Now that the Long Formation is in trouble, how can I sit back and do nothing? "
"What if the Long Formation didn't help you?" General Qi looked at Xiao Zheng meaningfully. He pursed his lips and asked. "Will you still help me?"
Xiao Zheng smiled and shook his head. "I don't like to answer hypothetical questions. This is the truth. Why should I challenge my humanity and morality? "
"You can stand the challenge," General Qi said word by word. "Old Jiang will never choose the wrong person."
Xiao Zheng smiled meaningfully.
Seeing this, General Qi immediately understood the meaning behind Xiao Zheng's smile.
He shook his head and said slowly, "Old Jiang didn't choose him. He chose Old Jiang. Old Jiang's relationship with him is different from yours. "
"Praise me all you want." Xiao Zheng took out an electronic cigarette, took two puffs, and said with a sad face. "From now on, I don't even have the money to go to the bar. Just thinking about it makes me tired. So tired. I feel like I will never love again. "
"If you want to drink, come to the Long Formation. I have an endless supply of wine here," General Qi said with a smile.
"Who told you that going to the bar is just for drinking?" Xiao Zheng rolled his eyes at General Qi, who didn't know how to flirt.
When General Qi heard this, a smile appeared at the corner of his mouth. Suddenly, he pointed at the valiant Jiang Qing in the courtyard. "I can ask her to drink with me."
"The upper beam is not straight!" Xiao Zheng said in a deep voice with a straight face. "Be careful that the lower beam is crooked too!"
