Walking out of the Ministry of Foreign Affairs, Jiang Qing's mood was inexplicably heavy. The more polite Minister Gong and his entourage were towards Xiao Zheng, the more uneasy Jiang Qing became.

For the first time, Tokyo offered to apologize. What does this mean? It means that the Ministry of Foreign Affairs has taken a historic step. And this step was promised to Xiao Zheng privately by Prince Ling Lainei. It can even be said that it was a gift from Prince Ling Lainei to Xiao Zheng!

This gift is too heavy!

It's so heavy that no one who is an individual can afford it!

Standing on the national righteousness, she was very relieved and even excited. But from a personal point of view, from the perspective of Xiao Zheng's comrades-in-arms - she was very uneasy and guilty.

She knew that Xiao Zheng would have to pay a terrible price in order to get this private promise.

But he was laughing.

Driving the car, with a smile on his lips. Full of lightheartedness.

"Ah Zheng." Jiang Qing clenched his palms slightly. glanced at Xiao Zheng. "What did you talk to Prince Linglaine?"

"Something's a mess." Xiao Zheng smiled.

"Exactly?" Jiang Qing asked. "Did she ask you to do anything?"

"What's wrong?" Xiao Zheng asked rhetorically.

"I think—" Jiang Qing's tongue knotted and he sighed lightly. "I kind of regret pulling you into the water."

"Why do you say that?" Xiao Zheng's expression became calm. "This is a great event for the benefit of the country and the people. At such an important moment, do you want to leave me alone and enjoy the glory? ”

"Captain Jiang, you're too selfish, aren't you?" Xiao Zheng said meaningfully.

"For the benefit of the country and the people, everyone should work together." Jiang Qing shook his head lightly.

"Do you think that with my personal ability, I can make Prince Ling Lainei make such a promise?" Xiao Zheng said with a relaxed face. "Speaking of which, I'm at best an introduction."

Jiang Qing still couldn't let go, pursed his lips and said, "But you have become an important bargaining chip at the negotiation table." And you are a bargaining chip, or I personally sent it. ”

Jiang Qing felt extremely guilty.

If he hadn't taken the initiative to introduce Xiao Zheng, Minister Gong might not have noticed Xiao Zheng's existence. If it weren't for himself, Xiao Zheng wouldn't have gone deep into it.

Be. This event is a historic moment in the history of diplomacy for the benefit of the country and the people. But why let Xiao Zheng take the risk alone?

Jiang Qing is not stupid, as long as he uses his brain a little, he can guess what kind of promise Xiao Zheng gave in return.

Help Prince Ling Lainei fight for the throne?

Go to the meeting alone to ensure the safety of Prince Linglaine?

Or - Xiao Zheng needs to exchange his life for this heavy apology in the days to come.

"Ah Zheng. Whatever you need, the Dragons will fully support you. General Qi will also give you his full support. Jiang Qing said eloquently. As long as you give an order, hundreds of soldiers under my command will serve you at any time. ”

"You're too narrow-minded." Xiao Zheng shook his head and said seriously. "Soldiers belong to the country and the people. The dragon group exists to defend national security. And not for me personally. Captain Jiang, you are also a veteran. Why is the ideological consciousness so low? ”

Jiang Qing's expression was slightly stunned, and he smiled bitterly: "Yes." I did something that disturbed my heart. but I want the whole dragon group to atone for my sins. I was so selfish. ”

"Captain Jiang." Xiao Zheng glanced at Jiang Qing and said in a low voice. "I think you're mistaken. Everything I did was for fame and fortune and to win the support of the Ministry of Foreign Affairs. Do you think I'm wading into troubled waters for no reason? Do you think I'm giving unconditionally? ”

"Are you stupid or am I stupid?" Xiao Zheng said with a solemn expression. "I'm going to make a loss-making deal?"

Crunch.

The car stopped suddenly. Xiao Zheng didn't wait for Jiang Qing to reply, he pushed the car door first, but did not take off the key. Said lightly: "The car will be lent to you first." Go back and remember to fill up my tank. ”

With that, Xiao Zheng swaggered towards the entrance of the community. Jiang Qing, who was sitting alone in the passenger seat, was left behind.

Xiao Zheng's words were just to comfort Jiang Qing. She knows this very well. But what about clear? She's already in the water. Moreover, it is highly likely that there is a huge risk.

And all this may not be the ability to do it alone. But in it, didn't he play the role of threading the needle?

……

When he got home, Lin Huayin was still watching TV. Perfect side face, sitting quietly in the corner of the sofa. There is no deliberate sitting, no pretentious dialogue. She just asked, "Something at night?" ”

"Hmm." Xiao Zheng changed his slippers and walked towards Lin Huayin with a smile. "You're going to enjoy it. It's a snack and a fruit bowl. Eat such a high-calorie snack at night, aren't you afraid of gaining weight? ”

"There's boxing every night." Lin Huayin said.

"Less in the future." Xiao Zheng said worriedly. "Don't rough your skin. Look at my hands—"

As he spoke, he stretched out his hand in front of Lin Huayin.

A pair of large calloused hands. In terms of length alone, the fingers must not be shorter than the fingers of a pianist. But on the whole, it is not slender at all.

Because the phalanges are too thick, the fingers are not slender. Layers of calluses are unevenly divided all around. It's like cutting with a kitchen knife, and it can't be easily cut.

"That's what comes out of boxing." Xiao Zheng said alarmistly.

Lin Huayin's gaze fell on Xiao Zheng's hand, she was silent for a moment, and slowly stretched out her slender and white jade finger, gently clasping Xiao Zheng's finger. Feeling Xiao Zheng's rough big hands: "Men's hands, roughness is not a bad thing." ”

"That's right." Xiao Zheng grinned. "But women can't. It's not good to look at if it's too rough. ”

"I practice boxing to hit the air, not people." Lin Huayin pursed his lips and said. "Out of the way."

After a pause, she took the initiative to ask, "Are you hungry?" Do you want to have a late-night snack? ”

"I won't eat it." Xiao Zheng pinched Lin Huayin's palm. "I just have something to tell you. In the last few days, I have been dealing with some personal matters, and I may not have much time to go back to the office. At the high-level regular meeting the day after tomorrow, you can help me explain. lest the supervisors think that I am arrogant and have to be angry. ”

Lin Huayin nodded lightly and didn't ask in detail. said: "If you don't eat, rest early." You've been sleeping hard lately. ”

Didn't sleep well. It's because there are many things and a lot of burden. Xiao Zheng is not afraid of heaven and earth. can face the terrorist attack of a business genius like Chang Yishan. If you were anyone, you wouldn't take it lightly, would you?

You know, he's a big guy on Wall Street. No matter how arrogant Xiao Zheng is, he doesn't dare to underestimate it.

If you lose, you'll really have nothing.

Perhaps even the chance of a comeback is slim. can only be as Lin Huayin said, the so-called picturesque view of the country is actually a wandering world, the four seas are home...
