Chen Rou first meets Nie Zhao because of an anti-terrorism case involving Hong Kong's wealthy elite. He is the richest man in Hong Kong for many years, and a renowned powerful figure. Even thou...
Of course, that's pretty much the end of the story.
Seeing that the old leader was still sulking, Xiao Zhang said at the right time, "Dad, we have guests at home, and it's time for dinner. Let's come down and talk about it."
Chen Ke was the most embarrassed. While everyone else was arguing, he stood there, feeling utterly ashamed.
The old leader snapped out of his daze and noticed Chen Ke's embarrassment. Pointing to his second son, he said, "I remember you two had a pretty good relationship back then. How come you lost contact with each other?"
Then look at Chen Ke: "You're just too honest, kid. You ran so many errands for him back then. He's like an older brother to you. Don't be shy in the future. If you have any trouble, just ask him and let him help you solve it."
Chen Ke saluted: "Yes."
The old commander then looked at his son: "If you're busy, you can go ahead, but I want a result from this matter!"
Many things, if you don't investigate, others will just drag it out and it will all disappear.
However, if we really say that Wang Meng faked his death and changed his identity, and that he was a relative of theirs, then the nature of the matter is very serious. Because the fight against organized crime is always about investigating to the end. Everyone has a retirement time, and it is inevitable to have opponents and enemies in the workplace. Challenging the bottom line of the law is tantamount to handing over one's head to the enemy.
Of course, although his sister-in-law was in the living room, greeting him with a smile and even trying to go out with him, clearly still wanting to salvage the situation, the second brother turned around and went straight through the dining room to the backyard: "Minmin?"
Little Minmin, who was collecting snail shells in the garden with Ayuan, jumped up and exclaimed, "Second Uncle!"
The second son smiled and nodded to Chen Rou, then looked at A Yuan and asked, "Did you have fun?"
A-Yuan couldn't understand, and all he was responsible for all day was to act cute.
He scooped up the snail shells with both hands and generously picked out the largest one: "Xun, Xun you."
Minmin smiled and said, "This is my second uncle, call him my second uncle."
Ah Yuan was very impolite: "Ai, Ai Uncle!"
The second son took the snail shell and asked Chen Rou, "What's his name?"
Chen Rou said, "Shenyuan, Nie Shenyuan."
The second son was actually very busy with work and in a hurry to leave, but he didn't expect that his sincere clients would be tricked one after another, and it was highly likely that they were his own family members, so he had to talk to Chen Rou a few more times.
He has a good memory and remembered: "His father once asked me for a piece of calligraphy, and his name was on it."
Following this, he remembered something and was about to say it when Chen Rou smiled and said, "My husband once gave me a Phoenix military knife, saying it was a gift from you. I really like that knife. It would be impolite not to reciprocate, so I should give you something in return."
Since we've already mentioned knives, the gift will certainly not be something ordinary.
The second son smiled and said, "I'd be happy to, but please don't give me anything too expensive."
I didn't see this person on this trip. Of course, she was very busy and didn't have time to see Chen Rou.
However, Chen Rou learned one advantage from Nie Zhao: he always considered everything thoroughly.
Opportunities are plentiful, but they are reserved for those who are prepared.
People like the second son in this family don't care about the value of gifts, because they have long transcended that level of understanding.
So, what kind of gift would make him feel that giving him the Phoenix Military Knife was worthwhile and meaningful?
The answer is a photograph. Chen Rou had been carrying a handbag all day, and inside the handbag was a photograph. Even the negatives had been destroyed, leaving only one copy, which was in Chen Rou's hand.
That photo was taken by a group of ICPO members who risked their lives and went to great lengths to finally capture Masato Kito. It could have been considered a historical photo, but because none of them were wearing pants, the Chief of Staff ordered it to be destroyed.
That was a dark history. Yue Zhongqi personally tore up all the photos, but Nie Yao secretly kept one for Chen Rou.
But actually, if they can let go of their idol image, this photo is very meaningful.
Chen Rou took out the photo and said with a smile, "Because I was there at the time, I kept this photo as a memento. I admire them very much, and my husband and I will continue to support their work as always."
The second son was furious because his sister-in-law had tricked him, but a photo made him laugh.
So, when I dreamt back to that harrowing night, beneath the cold and pale written report, there were actually some embarrassing scenes like the one in the photo that made me burst out laughing.
A group of people held people down and held them up with belts, pulling down their pants. One of them even had his red underwear sticking out.
The capture of Gui Touchang was a major event that would make people proud on the international stage, but the soldiers had been in such a sorry state before.
But the second son suddenly realized something was wrong: "Mrs. Nie, were you there at the time?"
Such a thrilling event, but when it is put on paper and written into a report, it is nothing more than a few pale words. All that the readers of the report know is that "[the Nie family of Hong Kong provided great assistance]".
If Chen Rou hadn't provided the photos, those in the capital who were reading the report would never have known that she was present at the time, or what the Nie family had done. Chen Ke was the only one who had the opportunity to speak, but he was mute.
Chen Rou was willing to give her all for this land, without asking for anything in return, but she couldn't be like Chen Ke. She had to speak up when she needed to, and she had to say whatever came her way. So she said, "Yes, I was there, and my family's bodyguards were there too."
The second son held the photo and looked at it again and again, and finally said, "Let's do it another day. I need to hear you tell me about this."
He must be leaving, saying goodbye, but then he asked, "My father hasn't seen this photo yet, has he?"
Chen Rou admitted, "Actually, my cousin hadn't seen it either, because the soldiers thought the photos were ugly, so they tore them all up."
