Gu Nianzhi couldn't react in time, so she retracted her hand and said with a straight face, "It's fine if you don't want it. You're the one who doesn't want it. Don't accuse me of taking advantage of you." She turned around and returned to her apartment, slamming the door shut.
The Ace of the Far East stood in the elevator and looked at the door that Gu Nianzhi had just closed. He still had that cold expression on his face.
This scene was fixed on the monitor of Lu Jin's apartment.
Lu Jin waved his fist at the monitor and snorted. "How dare you be disrespectful to my daughter? You'll be punished by torture! Do you think your father is dead?! "
The corridors and elevators of the apartment on the floor where Lu Jin, Gu Nianzhi, and Lu Yuan lived were all equipped with a newly developed surveillance system.
This monitoring system was a set of mini monitors the size of a needle tip. It could perform high-performance facial recognition and monitor the elevators on their floor at the right time.
Only his, Lu Yuan's, and Gu Nianzhi's appearances had been identified and stored by the system in advance.
If a fourth person enters the elevator, the surveillance system will alarm.
Lu Jin was woken up by the alarm on the monitor after Deputy Chief Counsel Peter entered the elevator.
He, who had already fallen asleep, got up with a grunt and pounced in front of the surveillance camera. In the end, he witnessed the entire process of Deputy Chief Counsel Peter following Gu Nianzhi into the room.
Several times, he was so anxious that he wanted to rush to Gu Nianzhi's door and scold Mr. Peter.
However, he resisted the urge.
Because his daughter had grown up, he had to give his daughter some autonomy. He believed that she could handle this matter by herself.
After all, Gu Nianzhi was Peter's savior. Lu Jin had a hunch that he wouldn't harm Gu Nianzhi.
However, this kind of "pestering" behavior gave Lu Jin a headache.
Fortunately, his daughter was powerful enough. In the end, she used her father's name and successfully scared Peter away!
That's right, so what if you have diplomatic immunity?!
As Nianzhi's father, if he said he didn't like her, then he didn't like her. Did he have to choose his words carefully to avoid embarrassing her?
…
The Ace of the Far East walked out of the elevator and saw that the snow outside was indeed getting heavier.
Expressionlessly, he turned up the collar of his coat and walked out into the snow.
Not long after walking on the sidewalk of the apartment complex, the Ace of the Far East suddenly stopped.
His eyes fell on a holly tree at the edge of the sidewalk.
If he was not mistaken, the streetlight shone from behind the holly tree, and he could vaguely see a figure standing behind it.
The person standing behind the tree waited for a while. Seeing that he did not leave and kept looking in his direction, he chuckled and simply walked out from behind the holly tree.
"Deputy Chief Counsel Peter, you really care about our Nianzhi." The man held a lighter in his hand and lit a cigarette in his mouth with a whoosh.
The Ace of the Far East looked at the person quietly and regained his cold expression. He said lightly, "So it's Chief Lu."
This person was Lu Yuan.
He knew from the moment the Ace of the Far East entered the elevator, because Lu Jin's surveillance system had also been installed in his room. It was originally just in case, so it was safer for two people to watch than one.
Unlike Lu Jin, he was too embarrassed to see Gu Nianzhi alone with another man. Moreover, he was more interested in Deputy Chief Counsel Peter, so he waited for a while. Seeing that Gu Nianzhi was determined, he came out early and waited for her on the way out of the apartment complex.
He hadn't thought of how to talk to him, but he hadn't expected Deputy Chief Counsel Peter to be so sensitive and notice him almost immediately.
Lu Yuan was wearing a very textured charcoal gray cashmere coat. He lowered his eyes and took a puff of his cigarette. He said casually, "Deputy Chief Counsel Peter really did something big in the United States this time."
The Ace of the Far East's face turned cold and he looked at Lu Yuan sternly. "Chief Lu, I don't understand what you mean."
"You don't understand?" Lu Yuan still didn't look up. He looked at the snow on the ground and said lightly, "Everyone in the world knows that your country's Yeltsin and Gorbachev were assassinated in New York this time."
"That's a disgrace to our country! Our country's leader, Mr. Pushin, has already lodged a solemn protest to the United States. He has closed the American embassy in the Soviet Union and expelled their diplomats. "
The Ace of the Far East put one hand behind his back and smiled faintly. "Chief Lu is very concerned about the deaths of Yeltsin and Gorbachev …"
"… The television plays it 24 hours a day. It's impossible not to care." Lu Yuan raised his head and exhaled a mouthful of white smoke, blurring his vision.
He stared at the beautiful man in front of him, as if he was seeing another shockingly beautiful woman through him.
The Ace of the Far East snorted, obviously not believing his words.
He looked up and down at Lu Yuan, who was almost as tall as him, and suddenly asked, "… But why does Chief Lu care about Yeltsin and Gorbachev, and not others? Do these two people have any special meaning to Chief Lu? "
Lu Yuan's eyes, which were as deep as a cold pool, suddenly lit up. It was like the hottest blue flame in the middle of a flame, almost penetrating all the fog.
"Deputy Chief Counsel Peter, why do you think these two people have special meaning to me?" Lu Yuan didn't answer directly. Instead, he asked, "I'm just a businessman. I've never been involved in politics, let alone the politics of other countries."
"Really? That's even stranger. " The corners of the Ace of the Far East's lips curled into a smile. "You're just a businessman and don't care about politics. However, after you found out that the two leaders of our country, Yeltsin and Gorbachev, were killed, you blocked me on the road in the middle of the night on a snowy day and specifically asked me about these two people."
"President Lu, don't you think that the reason you gave is illogical?"
Lu Yuan took another puff of his cigarette and said nonchalantly, "As I said, the news these days is too powerful. I can't not pay attention to it. I'm just curious. Deputy Chief Counsel Peter was also present at that time. With Mr. Peter's power, how could he let someone succeed? If I remember correctly, Deputy Chief Counsel Peter once admitted to us that you were from the KGB? "
That was when the bug he had installed on Gu Nianzhi was discovered. He had personally come to the place where Gu Nianzhi was recuperating to apologize. He had confessed that installing the bug was just his professional habit, and he had said that he was from the KGB of the Soviet Union. He had asked Lu Yuan and Lu Jin to cooperate with him to ensure Gu Nianzhi's safety.
The smile on the Ace of the Far East's face faded, and then he quickly raised a new smile. "President Lu also said that you don't care about politics. In my opinion, your political sensitivity is extraordinary."
"You flatter me." Lu Yuan smiled faintly. "It's just that I once had a dream in this area, but the dream was shattered. I could only be an honest businessman, a career with no future."
"If President Lu says that there's no future after building a business to such an extent, then we really don't want to live anymore." The Ace of the Far East took a step forward with a half-smile and got closer to Lu Yuan.
He leaned forward slightly and moved in front of Lu Yuan. He lowered his voice and said something.
Lu Yuan's expression changed. He stared blankly at the young man in front of him. He didn't even notice that the cigarette was about to burn his fingers.
