Chapter 275: The Old Man
"Did they tell them what they came here for?"
Shang Yishen's walking posture is like an unquestionable emperor, and people can't help but want to be impressed with every step he takes. This made Luo Man in a trance for a moment, feeling that Shang Yishen and Wan Zilin were ancient emperors and queens, and their temperament was noble and inviolable.
"What are you doing?"
Shang Yishen and Wan Zilin had already walked to the elevator, and seeing that Luo Man had not replied to Shang Yishen's question for a long time, the president glanced back at Luo Man and found that although Luo Man was walking behind the two of them, he seemed to be absent-minded. Just now, after asking deeply, Luo Man woke up from his own world.
"They were in that small conference room on the sixth floor, and Yoko said that if you came, he could take you there directly, and he would always maintain the situation in the conference room. β
Luo Man seemed to be a little distracted, and he didn't even remember Shang Yishen's previous question, and gave Wan Zilin and Shang Yishen such a reply when he didn't ask, Shang Yishen and Wan Zilin looked at each other, and didn't know what to say at all.
"Aman, I've really bothered you lately, you should be very tired, why don't you give yourself a vacation and rest in the past two days?"
Wan Zilin saw that Luo Man's state didn't seem to be so good, even the problem of Shang Yishen as her employer, she could ignore it, and Luo Man's mental state didn't seem to be very good, Wan Zilin was worried about whether she was too stressed.
"No, no, no, I'm fineβ’β’β’β’β’β’"
Luo Man subconsciously wanted to refute Wan Zilin's statement that she was too tired, but after she finished refuting, even she didn't seem to be so credible, so her voice gradually became smaller.
"I just haven't slept well in the past two nights β’β’β’β’β’β’, just take a rest. β
When he saw Luo Man at the door before, Shang Yishen noticed that Luo Man didn't look so good, but with deep tiredness. But it stands to reason that the intensity of Luo Man's current work is much easier than when she was a special forces before.
So this kind of difficult work shouldn't be anything to her. Being a special soldier and being a bodyguard who only needs to protect safety is more like a vacation for Luo Man.
And it is true that these retired special forces led by Yoko are still working for the government. It stands to reason that they can't have any direct relationship with people like Wan Zilin and Shang Yishen.
It's just because their boss is an old friend of Shang Yishen. Shang Yishen was worried that those merchants before would want to burn the jade and implicate his family because they were forced by him, so he borrowed a few people from this old friend.
These people who were "borrowed" by Shang Yishen were all special forces who had just finished their mission and needed to adjust their status, so they were sent over to Wan Zilin and others as bodyguards, which could be regarded as giving them a holiday, after all, the difficulty of such a job was nothing to them.
However, Luo Man showed a burnout appearance in such a relatively relaxed working environment, which is not a good thing for either Wan Zilin or Luo Man.
It stands to reason that the bodyguard he hired is a little careless, so the employer has reason to blame it. But now Shang Yishen is busy dealing with those people who claim to be Mr. Zhong Zhiyu's old department, so he doesn't have time to pay attention to Luo Man's little distraction.
Luo Man really hasn't had a good rest in the past few days, although Shang Yishen has adjusted the rest time for her in the past few days, and her state in the past few days is a semi-vacation situation.
But that's where the problem comes in.
Luo Man has independent time at her disposal, so she can choose whether to stay in the hotel to rest or go out for a walk. After resting for a while, Luo Man chose to go to a famous location in the city.
There is no problem with a walk, but for Luoman, this visit is a big problem. To be precise, Luo Man met people she shouldn't have seen in the commercial street of the city.
And this person who shouldn't be seen, the last time Luo Man saw him was in the cemetery. It was Luo Man who personally gave him flowers, watched him enter the incinerator, and finally Luo Man personally packed up his bones and put them in the urn.
That person shouldn't have been here in the first place, or rather, he shouldn't have been anywhere. But Luo Man saw him, really saw him, Professor Xue, who can walk and move, doesn't even need a wheelchair.
Luo Man saw him at the entrance of a commercial street, at first glance, Luo Man thought he was wrong, and then looked closely, for a moment, Luo Man felt that he might have crossed over.
The scientist who used to be extremely gentle to her, had a noble temperament, and held national secrets in his hands, Professor Xue, who was supposed to be lying in the cemetery, appeared alive in front of Luo Man.
Maybe it's a nightmare, or maybe it's not. Luo Man herself didn't know what kind of complicated emotions she had in her heart when she saw the person who looked like Professor Xue.
But there is no doubt that Luo Man is uneasy because of this. Although it was just a glimpse, she really saw Professor Xue's face, but she couldn't follow that person all the time and look at the other party carefully.
Because of Professor Xue's death, all the psychological trauma treatments she had done, all the high walls and defenses she had built, all fell apart after her glance, and there was no trace of them.
She lost the other party, but that glance left a deep impression in her mind.
She began tossing and turning and couldn't sleep. Because of this opportunity again, her inner demon crawled out of the old memories locked up by her, tightly wrapped around her neck, and could suffocate her to death with a single breath.
Luo Man almost didn't dare to close his eyes now, and he didn't dare to fall asleep. Because of her current mental condition, as soon as she closes her eyes, she will see that Professor Xue blocked bullets for her back then, and that scene made her chill.
But she also didn't dare to fall asleep, even if she was sleepy, she could only rest for a short period of time, because as long as she fell asleep, she would dream of those good days when she was with Professor Xue.
This is a picture that suffocates her even more than the scene of blocking bullets. Because if it's just a scene of blocking bullets, then Luo Man will only feel scared and sad when he wakes up, but once he encounters some of the good things he once had, for Luo Man, every minute after waking up is a pain like Ling Chi.
She also quickly became depressed because of this, but fortunately, Wan Zilin noticed her discomfort, so she adjusted the time of her semi-vacation to be longer, and she didn't have to follow Wan Zilin every day. But apparently this approach did not make the situation of Luoman better.
"Wait a minute, you come to my room, I have something to talk to you about. β
Wan Zilin always felt that Luo Man should have encountered some problems, but she did not directly express her doubts in front of everyone, but asked Luo Man to talk to her alone.
Luo Man nodded, then cheered up and followed Wan Zilin and Shang Yishen into the conference room. There are already four people sitting inside, except for one Yangzi, the other three people are all fresh faces, which should be the people who came to find Wan Zilin as Yangzi said.
Sure enough, when Shang Yishen, Wan Zilin, and Luo Man entered the conference room together, except for Yangzi who stood up to greet them, these three people also stood up to greet Wan Zilin and them.
But obviously they didn't know who Wan Zilin was, because among the people who came in, except for Wan Zilin and Luo Man, both of them were little girls, and they didn't dare to recognize them, so they could only stand awkwardly. Two of them also quietly exchanged ears, discussing which one was the Wan Zilin they were looking for.
After Shang Yishen came in, he exchanged a look with Yangzi, and Yangzi winked at Shang Yishen, indicating that the bodyguards outside had already been arranged, and once there was something inside, they would immediately appear to control the scene.
After receiving Yoko's affirmative hint, Shang Yi nodded shallowly, and the clever Yoko immediately turned his head to introduce the three so-called Zhong Zhiyu's henchmen.
"Several, Mr. Shang and Mrs. Shang have arrived, if you have any things, you can make it clear now. β
Seeing this, these three people were even more puzzled, they didn't know what Mrs. Shang was, they only knew that the person they came to find was called Wan Zilin, who was the granddaughter of Mr. Zhong Zhiyu.
One of the middle-aged men took out his mobile phone, called up a photo, and carefully compared it with the women at the scene, only then did he confirm who Wan Zilin was.
"Miss Wan, we are Mr. Zhong Zhiyu's subordinates, and we have received a will, saying that we are here to hand over and deal with related work with you. β
The three of them are all middle-aged men who are not young, but they look very energetic, and the way they speak and do things is very neat, unlike other middle-aged men.
Wan Zilin looked at these three men who were respectful to her suspiciously and curiously, these three people could be her uncle at their age, and now being looked at by the people of her uncle's generation, Wan Zilin still felt that she was under great pressure.
"Well, hello, I'm β’β’β’β’β’β’ nice to meet you?"
Wan Zilin didn't know how to face such a situation for a while.
