"Is that so?" Ruan Xianxian suddenly smiled. "Colonel Lin, could you please have your guards help me tie up Comrade Zhou's limbs?"

Lin Rui Cong rubbed his hands together and stood up. He had long disliked this guy who ate shit every day and had a particularly foul mouth. He would never miss the chance to humiliate him.

"I'll come myself."

"What are you doing? Are you resorting to violence just because you can't win an argument?" The people from the Ministry of Political Affairs all stood up.

They tried to stop him, but the burly man and his men stretched out their long legs and blocked their way.

"Want to get over there? You can either crawl, jump, or go back to your seat and sit properly."

"You, you are simply unreasonable."

The argument was escalating, and Zhou Qi, who had been pulled from his seat, couldn't remain calm either. He looked at his superior, but when the superior didn't even give a hint, he felt a chill in his heart.

They couldn't help but point the finger at Feng Guang, who was also smiling and drinking tea.

"Sir, what do you mean by this? If we can't win the argument, we can simply choose not to. Is it really necessary to resort to personal attacks?"

"Don't get excited, don't get excited." Ruan Xianxian patted Comrade Zhou's shoulder repeatedly, understanding that the two big shots were not speaking, and now it was a matter of soldiers versus soldiers versus generals.

She gently comforted the furious Zhou Qi, saying, "It's just so you can personally verify your statement. The leaders are all here; I'm not going to eat you alive."

Zhou Qi gradually calmed down.

If he continues to struggle and make a scene, although he may be able to pin a big accusation on the instigator, his own pathetic state will be seen by so many people, and his superiors will certainly not give him important responsibilities in the future.

Ruan Xianxian was right. Everyone was there, so she couldn't possibly do anything too outrageous to herself. If she did, her superiors wouldn't let it go easily.

After thinking it through, he relaxed and laughed, "If you had said it was a verification, I would have cooperated. Anyone would have been startled if you just rushed over like that."

These words were clearly an attempt to save face, and Mu Xia raised her eyelids, "I can't."

"What?"

Looking at Zhou Qi, who was still trying to harm people even now, Mu Xia said, "I'm not going to be surprised."

Ruan Xiaoxian's mischievous glint was practically bubbling from his eyes; he was so excited that he had no intention of responding.

If this conversation were to fall into the wrong hands, admitting it might frighten one of the answers.

Admitting to a change of position would be a shock to oneself, and it would make the military seem incompetent. No one would be foolish enough to accept such a thing unless offered a way out.

She was afraid that someone might impulsively say, "If it were me, I wouldn't have done it. I went deep into enemy territory and fought my way in and out seven times without batting an eye."

If she were Zhou Qi, she would immediately retort: ​​"You don't even have this much reaction time, no wonder you lost such and such battle back then."

It was a perfect attack point, and they practically delivered it to their doorstep.

Having understood Zhou Qi's sinister intentions and to prevent anyone from falling into his trap in a moment of impulsiveness, she immediately took over the conversation.

It's most appropriate for her to say it. Regardless of whether her claim of not being afraid is true or false, it will make Zhou Qi seem too useless in comparison.

That's how negotiations at a long table are; every seemingly casual remark could be the next trap.

Upon hearing Mu Xia's voice, Ruan Xianxian was stunned for a moment, then realized that this guy was still up to no good and wanted to dig a pit for her.

He rubbed his hands together, walked over to Zhou Qi, who was still bound hand and foot but held his head high with a fearless expression, and said, "Come on!"

The guy nodded: "Then I'm coming!"

Everyone: What a strange conversation!

Just as Zhou Qi was wondering what tricks she had up her sleeve, a foot suddenly shot out from the side and landed a precise kick to his lower abdomen.

Zhou Qi lost control of his body and his center of gravity shifted, causing him to fall from the chair to the ground, landing face-first.

Whether it was intentional or not, Zhou Qi's hands were tied behind his back and his feet were bound with rope.

The way he fell resembled kowtowing to someone in a grand gesture of worship, or a prisoner about to be executed at the execution ground in ancient times.

She looked closely and realized, well, it seemed more like the latter.

The humiliating posture made Zhou Qi blush. "Comrade Ruan, are you deliberately humiliating a public official?"

Even the two top leaders present frowned slightly.

Ruan Xianxian squatted down and helped him adjust his posture to that of a baby curled up in its mother's womb, then curled up her lips and stretched out her leg.

Zhou Qi rolled out like a ball.

"Ahhh! What are you doing?" The ball made a sound as it broke through the defense.

Ruan Xianxian jogged after her, and everyone made way for her as she passed, saying that she sounded very innocent.

"Didn't you say that the head is more important than the body?"

"Then let me show you the helplessness of having only a head but no limbs, being completely at someone's mercy. If you can last three years, you win this round."

"What?" Zhou Qi was shocked. Let alone three years, he would have thrown up if he had to endure this kind of being kicked around like a ball for another three minutes.

Three years? Is she a devil?

Ruan Xianxian caught up with the "ball" again and kicked it. Tian Tian gave the uncle who made way for her a polite smile.

Finally, she had kicked enough, and Zhou Qi rolled around the conference room once. Look, the floor is much cleaner now.

Ruan Xianxian looked down at her from above: "I am your friend, just to let you put yourself in my shoes and experience it. What if it were an enemy?"

They will only rip you apart and tear you apart if you are powerless to fight back.

Comrade Zhou, do you know what's more terrifying than death?

She answered her own question calmly, uttering four words: "At the mercy of others."

"Now tell me, which is more important, the head or the limbs?"

If you insist on your opinion, I don't mind letting you experience it for a while longer.

The rough-looking man raised his hand and grinned, "I'm happy to do this kind of rough work, even though I can't read many words."

"Me too."

"agree."

Zhou Qi felt dizzy and the places on his body where Ruan Xianxian had kicked him were in excruciating pain. Coupled with the sounds of agreement above his head, he almost felt like he was going to vomit.

If I had known better, why would I have offended her?

He was furious, his eyelids drooping, his voice filled with gritted teeth: "I admit, the military is more important, okay?"

A cold glint flashed in Feng Guang's eyes.

The official from the Ministry of the Interior shook his head and stopped looking.

Zhou Qi's silver tongue was useful, able to say things he couldn't say himself, but he couldn't even grasp the most basic situation.

Blindly comparing and belittling others is harmful; it may bring cleverness, but it will hinder the achievement of great things.

“I said city gate tower, you said hip joint, who asked you about this?” Ruan Xianxian tilted her head. “Aren’t we discussing which is more important, the head or the torso?”

Why do you keep bringing up the military and political circles? Anyone who didn't know better would think you have ulterior motives. You really should check your background.

Then, changing the subject, he said, "And what I want to tell you is that every part of the body is important."

Without your eyes, you'll become blind.

Without a tongue, one cannot express their suffering.

The most indispensable thing is the heart; once the heart is gone, life comes to an end.

Mutual support and mutual assistance are essential for a complete person.

Ruan Xianxian turned around and smiled at everyone present. "My high school principal always said that practice reveals the truth. If I have offended anyone, I apologize to Comrade Zhou."

I don't know which is more important, teeth or lips, but I understand the meaning of "lips and teeth are interdependent."
