There is an insurmountable gap between her and Song Yuanchao, and between Nie Han and Nie Jiajun.
Of course, when it comes to matters of the heart, as long as both parties are willing, other issues are not problems. Chen Rou called Song Yuanchao here today to get straight to the point, actually wanting to ask him about his plans for the future.
She didn't beat around the bush and said directly, "Brother Song, you know that although Captain Yue, Bao Dao, and Hu Yong have worked very hard and made great achievements over the years, Captain Chen thinks that you were the first person to go undercover in the Philippines, and under those conditions, you almost died. So he has always wanted you to pursue a career in politics."
Song Yuanchao knew this, but he told the truth: "Madam, you know me best. I'm just not cut out for being an official."
He added, "If we're talking about who among us is the best at being an official, there's only one person: Captain Yue. He's the kind of person who's got the makings of a leader."
In fact, Chen Ke planned to push Song Yuanchao out when he went to the capital to report on his work after arresting Zhang Ziqiang, and then pull some strings to get him directly into the General Military Region so that he could pursue a career in politics and become a leader in the future.
But Chen Rou shared the same thought as Song Yuanchao: she felt that Song Yuanchao, like Chen Ke, was not leadership material.
On the contrary, Yue Zhongqi was able to become a big shot in his previous life because he was awesome.
It's estimated that, despite his many twists and turns in life, Yue Zhongqi will ultimately be the one to reach the capital and become a high-ranking leader.
Chen Rou took another sip of beer and said, "In three years, it will be 1997."
After a moment of silence, she asked Song Yuanchao, "If you don't want to pursue a career in government, what do you plan to do in the future?"
Song Yuanchao looked up and stared intently at Chen Rou: "Didn't we already agree on this? The first professional international bodyguard company in Hong Kong. Ms. Chen Rou, you are the boss, and I will be your general manager. Moreover, we are different from others because although I am not good at other things, I am good at ideological work. I will ensure the purity of our team."
The topic of starting a bodyguard company was mentioned briefly by Chen Rou when she was pregnant.
But when she found out that her seniors didn't have to retire, she gave up the idea. But Song Yuanchao actually remembered.
In fact, Song Yuanchao not only remembered it, but he had also been making plans in his mind all along.
He stepped forward and said, "When Guo Xiaobai was recruiting veterans from the mainland, as far as I know, he interviewed more than a dozen people by phone, but seven or eight of them withdrew on the spot because of the mention of casinos and drugs. Then he took those who were willing to participate to prostitutes and gamble, and a few of them found something was wrong and withdrew halfway through. Ms. Chen Rou, do you understand what I mean?"
Chen Rou understood perfectly: "Although some people go astray after leaving the military, most people stick to their principles. And if we can, we should help those people find a job, as long as they are good enough and strong enough."
Song Yuanchao nodded: "Let's wait until 1997. After the handover, we'll start a company, and our company will be called..."
Upon hearing that it might be dangerous, Chen Rou quickly said, "No, no, we can't call it Veteran Security Company. That doesn't sound good. We need to think of a new name."
Song Yuanchao hesitated for a moment, then tentatively asked, "Is it really that bad?"
From Veteran Massage to Veteran Barbecue, and then to Veteran Appliances, the word "veteran" has always been the most appealing word to Song Yuanchao.
But why doesn't the wife like that name?
Chen Rou frankly admitted: "Not only does it sound bad, but it also easily evokes images of lame, toothless security guards. Forget it."
Song Yuanchao was unaware that in the future, the employees of the veteran security companies in various cities would all be toothless old men earning 2,000 yuan a month, guarding the gates and reception rooms of various residential areas. Therefore, Chen Rou had a phobia of those two words.
But it doesn't matter. He's not cut out to be an official. He's already decided that once the Cheung Tze-keung affair is over, he'll find an opportunity to have a deep talk with Chan Kak-sam, decline his offer, and then focus on waiting for his return and starting a business with his wife.
With this bright future ahead, and the young lady not intending to force him into becoming a gigolo, Song Yuanchao felt a little disappointed but also quite pleased, and prepared to go to sleep.
But just as he was about to leave, Chen Rou suddenly said from behind, "Brother Song, when I first met Ahan, I liked her a lot because of her bravery. But it's strange, why didn't you like her back then?"
Song Yuanchao honestly replied, "Madam, she was not yet an adult at that time, she was a child. I liked her quite a bit, but she was just a child."
Indeed, Nie Han was not yet an adult at that time, but Song Yuanchao was already an adult in his twenties.
It would have been strange if he had said he liked Nie Han back then.
Song Yuanchao had explained and wanted to leave, but Chen Rou said again, "But now she's grown up and is an adult. If her initial liking for you was due to a friendship formed during their escape, and not a mature affection, then now it is. Now she likes you as an adult girl, and I can see that you like her too, don't you?"
...
After discussing their careers, let's talk about relationships. Today, Chen Rou needs to help her brother Song figure out their future.
