Chapter 457 459 Rejection

As soon as Wang Rui finished speaking, Rong Xianxian's impression of him suddenly deteriorated a little.

Rong Xianxian laughed at herself, "Our team has not yet formulated a complete set of rules and regulations. Theoretically, everyone is free to come and go. If A-Lin wants to leave, he just needs to tell us. There's no need for you to make this trip!"

"Mrs. Rong, it's precisely because my brother doesn't want to leave that I want you to help persuade him." Wang Rui explained without changing his expression.

"Do you want me to persuade him or do you want me to kick him out of the team directly? Is there any difference whether I persuade him or you persuade him? It's impossible that in Alin's mind, I am more important than you relatives." Rong Xianxian felt a little funny.

"My parents are old and timid, they just hope that the children are safe. I stay in the army every day and don't go home, so they are worried. There is nothing they can do. Now my brother is back. If he is like me, fighting outside every day, they will not be able to accept it." Wang Rui sighed.

"I understand what you're thinking, old man. If you're just worried about Wang Lin's safety, then there's no need to force him to leave the team. At least within a year, unless there are special circumstances, I will not take anyone out of the safe zone." Rong Xianxian looked at Wang Rui and raised her eyebrows.

"Heh..." Wang Rui smiled softly.

"My family has been working for the Ning family since my grandfather's generation. We have stayed in the capital for a long time and have some understanding of the various forces in the capital. Madam Rong, you offended the eldest daughter of the Gong family as soon as you came to Beijing. The Seventh Young Master has a bad relationship with the clan. It is foreseeable that there will be no peace around you in the future. Although our family is not from a big family, my parents have always spoiled my younger brother. Therefore, they want him to come back to live a stable life. I hope Madam Rong will understand." Wang Rui looked at Rong Xianxian with an embarrassed expression.

"We initially traveled together in Chongzhou so that we could return to our loved ones safely. I would never stop Alin from leaving, but I can't drive him away either. I respect his choice." Rong Xianxian looked directly at Wang Rui with a calm expression.

"Madam Rong, my brother's aptitude is just above average, and he is not hardworking enough. He can cultivate to his current level thanks to your help. The knife in his hand was also given by you. I know how precious a spiritual weapon is. I acknowledge this favor. I, Wang Rui, am not an ungrateful person. As long as you can help persuade my brother to leave, I will repay you for your kindness." While speaking, Wang Rui took out a badge from his shirt pocket.

Wang Rui was admitted to the top military academy in the country with excellent grades. After graduating from the academy, he joined the army. He had outstanding abilities and opportunities. He had already been promoted to the rank of captain before the apocalypse. After the apocalypse, he made many great contributions and is now the commander of the 6th Regiment of the 37th Division of the 3rd Corps.

This badge is exactly the shoulder strap of a colonel-level officer.

"If I agree to your request, it would be like treating our friendship of life and death as a transaction." Rong Xianxian chuckled and shook her head. Wang Rui's power was definitely much greater than Wang Lin's, but she didn't want such a deal without much sincerity.

"Madam Rong, I know that because of the relationship with the Seventh Young Master, you may look down on me, an ordinary officer. But although my family is a vassal of the Ning family, after several generations of operation, we also have considerable influence in the Ning family. I can help you find out a lot of information inside and outside the Ning family. Moreover, at the right time, our family can stand on the side of the Seventh Young Master." As for what kind of time is the right time, it depends on how far Ning Qingyun can go?

"Hehe, if you came here today just for this matter, you can go back now." Rong Xianxian looked uninterested. Who would want to inquire about the Ning family's messy affairs? She was focused on developing her own career and had no interest in those people.

"Mrs. Rong, I hope you can reconsider this. After all, if something really happens to my brother, we, his relatives, will definitely feel resentful towards you." Although Wang Rui's tone was respectful and humble, it revealed a hint of threat.

After Wang Lin reunited with his family, his parents and brothers disagreed with him staying in Rong Xianxian's team. Wang Lin was willing to die for them, and Wang Rui had no choice but to deal with Rong Xianxian.

"Do you speak so toughly in front of Ning Qingyun or other members of the Ning family?" Rong Xianxian naturally couldn't understand the meaning of Wang Rui's words, and her tone became cold.

As soon as Wang Rui saw Rong Xianxian's reaction, he knew that his trip today was in vain. Rong Xianxian's unmoved look made him sigh inwardly.

Fortunately, there are still many people in the Ning family who are looking forward to Ning Qingyun's return to the family. The head of the family is not the only one in power, which gives their family some room to maneuver.

"Madam Rong, I am just worried about my brother's safety. I have absolutely no disrespect towards you." Wang Lin insisted on staying in Rong Xianxian's team. Wang Rui cared about his only brother very much and did not dare to offend Rong Xianxian.

“It doesn’t matter whether you are respectful or not. The one I have a friendship with is Wang Lin, not you. I am willing to talk to you here today because you are Wang Lin’s brother. I understand why you came here today. If there is nothing else, please go back!” Rong Xianxian’s attitude of seeing him off was so obvious that Wang Rui couldn’t stay any longer.

"Alin, don't forget what you promised today. Come home for dinner tomorrow! I have already told Mrs. Rong." Wang Rui instructed Wang Lin.

"I understand. I'll go back when I have time." Wang Lin agreed casually.

Before Wang Rui came, he only said that he came to thank Rong Xianxian for taking care of Wang Lin. Wang Lin didn't know what his brother said to Rong Xianxian. He smiled proudly at Rong Xianxian. Wang Lin always felt that having a brother like Wang Rui was something to be proud of.

In the living room, Rong Xianxian, Jiang Jie, Wang Lin, Chang Qing, Chen Lishu and Xia Kai sat on a simple sofa.

"How are you doing on what I asked you to do before?" Rong Xianxian looked at everyone present.

"Sister Rong, our Flame Mercenary Group has become famous." Wang Lin said excitedly.

"Famous?" Rong Xianxian frowned. What did that mean? Famous for what?

"Sister Rong, the higher the level of the mercenary group, the better the treatment generally. After the information of our mercenary group was announced, many people asked if we were recruiting." Jiang Jie added.

After each mercenary group is upgraded to four stars, there will be an official announcement.

The Flame Mercenary Group, which had just registered as a four-star mercenary group, naturally attracted the attention of various forces.

Among those who want to join the mercenary group, it is difficult to distinguish how many are for personal development and how many are spies for various forces in the capital.
