Chapter 687: Beside a diplomat, there are always protectors

~7 min read 1,261 words

"Mr. Aisi, this cannot go on. The yellow-skinned monkeys of Huaxia do not seem easy to handle." A man from Eagle Country narrowed his eyes gloomily.

Aisi smiled and looked at the man, "Aili, keep your greed in check. If you ruin my affairs, I will have your soul remain in Hong Kong, never to step foot on the land of my Dayingguo again."

Aili's expression changed; he dared to be angry but dared not speak, and could only end up flushing with suppressed rage.

"Teacher An, nothing was discussed at all." Zhao Siyu was quick-tongued. From the tension upon entering the room to the dazed state upon leaving, she felt some self-doubt. Was this the first day of negotiations?

How did it feel like everything was wrong?

An Yinan smiled, "I will treat you to something delicious, but we must return to where we are staying to eat."

Hong Kong is different from Pengcheng; there is danger here at any moment...

And this is it...

"Bang!"

Successive gunshots disturbed the tranquility of the street.

This time, the one driving was not Han Xiao, but Yun Mo. Han Xiao is now only responsible for the daily living aspects, and the mission she is executing is too dangerous. Han Xiao has no strength to truss a chicken; wouldn't coming out just be serving herself up on a platter?

"Leader, sit tight!" Yun Mo's eyes narrowed, and she slammed on the accelerator, only to suddenly hit the brakes at a critical moment. The tires sparked against the road, and the car immediately did a 180-degree turn.

Then...

"Are you ready?" Yun Mo said in a low voice.

Yun Shu said, "Ready."

In an instant, a gap appeared in the bulletproof glass of the window. Yun Shu knelt halfway on the seat, two guns in hand, firing without pause.

An Yinan sat with Zhao Siyu on one side and Yanhuo on the other.

Zhao Siyu's face was deathly pale, but she looked at Teacher An sitting in the middle. Teacher An had her eyes closed, her whole body leaning against the back seat, her fingers lightly tapping her thigh.

"Teacher An." Zhao Siyu's voice carried a hint of a sob.

An Yinan slowly opened her eyes and looked at the person beside her, "Siyu, at any time, you must remember who you are."

"A diplomat."

"Beside a diplomat, there are always protectors."

"The only thing you can do is trust them."

Then she slowly closed her eyes again, but still asked one question, "Do you remember?"

Zhao Siyu clenched her fists tightly, "Teacher An, I remember."

She had never left Beijing. Born under the red flag and raised in the spring breeze, the word "danger" had previously been so distant.

Now, being in the midst of it, she realized what her choice meant.

She looked at the person beside her. Could she one day, like Teacher An, face bullets and assassination attempts without changing her expression?

If she asked, An Yinan would tell her directly that she remained calm because she had sufficient confidence.

The Dragon Group did not move; all the attacks were focused on this car, while the cars behind had already followed the plan and were driving normally.

"Hold on tight." Just then, Yun Mo spoke again.

An Yinan did not move, but Zhao Siyu already had experience and grabbed the handle tightly.

Yun Mo suddenly floored the accelerator, and the roar of the engine woke up the whole street.

The Hong Kong Police Department made no move, and the Councilors' office made no move, as if they had noticed nothing at all.

A car drove toward them from the front; Yun Mo suddenly braked, then drove straight onto a side road. The surrounding cars that had been blocking them watched the black car speed away.

"Bastards!"

"Who is responsible for this road?"

"Report, the person in charge is already dead." The inspector ran back. Never mind the person, even the tires were already blown out.

Otherwise, there wouldn't have been a gap on this road.

Looking at the street, the person in charge slammed the steering wheel hard, "Trash."

"Boss, what now?"

"What do you mean what now? Retreat!"

In an instant, four or five cars hurriedly left.

Except for the damaged street and the doors and windows that only opened after waiting for a long time with no movement, it was as if nothing had ever happened.

Zhao Siyu looked behind, "Why aren't they chasing?"

"The blockade failed. This is Eagle Country's territory now; they don't dare provoke Eagle Country." Yun Shu explained to her, putting away the gun in her hand. The window was also pulled up. There was no damage inside the car, but the outside of the car was quite damaged, and the tires also needed to be replaced.

If it weren't for Yun Mo's driving skills, the tires would have burst long ago.

Every maneuver and precision shot was to dodge bullets.

Zhao Siyu covered her mouth, then asked in confusion, "Aren't they Eagle Country people?"

She had always thought they were Eagle Country people; otherwise, how would they dare to take action in Hong Kong?

An Yinan smiled and looked at the girl beside her. Not being scared to tears by this situation was already quite good. To be honest, she was satisfied with her performance.

"No!"

An Yinan first denied her thought, then slowly explained, "We are negotiating with Eagle Country. Eagle Country will take action, but not these overt actions."

"Do you understand?"

In the shadows, what methods they might use, that is not certain.

But overtly, they will not. The Huaxia of today is no longer the Huaxia of the past.

Eagle Country does not want to provoke a major problem.

The reason she chose the previous place to stay, rather than a hidden location, was to force Eagle Country to provide protection.

If something happened to her in Hong Kong, Huaxia would not let it go.

This point, they know, Huaxia knows, and Eagle Country knows too!

The importance of An Yinan is beyond doubt.

One can die in obscurity, but one cannot die in the open!

This is the attitude of Eagle Country; all factions may come, but they must all know their limits, otherwise Eagle Country will take action.

Zhao Siyu did not expect it to be like this; she widened her eyes, looking at Teacher An, who was sitting to the side with her eyes closed.

"It seems I understand, yet it seems I do not," Zhao Siyu answered honestly.

An Yinan smiled and did not say anything more.

"It's fine, you will understand after you have experienced more in the future."

No one can reach the heavens in a single step; geniuses, they exist!

But they are too few.

More people need to accumulate strength and wait for the right moment, need to accumulate experience, and need to constantly grope their way forward.

Yun Mo circled around a few times, confirmed that no one was following, and only then drove the car directly back to the residential complex, without needing any concealment.

After all, it could be said that the whole world knew which residential complex she lived in...

"Teacher An."

"Teacher An, are you alright?"

Just as they returned to the residential complex, a group of people crowded around; some had pale faces, while others showed worry on their faces.

An Yinan pressed her hand down, "Quiet."

Through long-term contact, they had long since formed a habit; when An Yinan spoke, everyone instinctively quieted down.
