Tang Ran was sharpening her knife to attack Tang Bo.
After learning about the explosion in the Northwest Military Region laboratory, Tang Ran had an urge to call back and inquire, but was persuaded by Zhou Yian. This issue was sensitive in nature. When Zhou Yian and Fang Yanwu spoke on the phone before, they had talked in a very confidential manner. If Tang Ran called back at this time, her purpose would be too obvious, and the phone line might not be safe.
Tang Ran understood the logic and secretly decided to go back to the M military camp. She would not feel at ease unless she called.
…………
Tang Bo and his group arrived at the rear command center just when Tang Ran was extremely upset and about to explode.
"Commander, people from a certain unit of the country have arrived."
Zhou Yian was processing documents and didn't even raise his head when he heard this.
"They're here. Do you still want me to greet them? Let them go through the formalities. Also, send someone to tell Lu Jinshu and Tang Ran that they've arrived."
Zhou Yian had no good impression of this group of people at all.
"Commander, he's outside. He said he wants to see you."
Zhou Yian then raised his head.
"Let them in."
He was not holding his fart well. He knew what the man wanted to do, but he did not expect him to be so impatient.
Not long after Zhou Yian's guard went out, he saw two people walking in. Zhou Yian looked at the man and woman who came in, and had a rough guess in his mind, with his eyes focused on the man.
"Uncle Zhou, hello, my name is Lu Shanwen. Before I came here, my father specifically told me to come and see you as soon as I got here. He said that the current situation on the battlefield is all due to you.
At that time, I imagined what this legendary Uncle Zhou would look like. Seeing him today, I felt that it was indeed the case. You perfectly embody the image of the hero in my imagination."
Zhou Yian has always been good at pretending, except when he was mad at Tang Ran.
Zhou Yian's first impression of Lu Shanwen was that he was a good talker.
But a rough man at heart like Zhou Yian prefers warmongers like Tang Ran who get things done rather than sweet talk.
"Hurry up and take a seat. I hope the journey will be smooth."
"It's OK. Everything went well."
Zhou Yian's guards are also very discerning. They can roughly guess what their commander thinks of a person. If the other party tries to get close to him right away, the commander will also have to put on a show.
So he poured a glass of water for each of them.
"Look at my brain. I'm so happy to see Uncle Zhou. Tang Bo, let me introduce you. This is the Uncle Zhou I've been telling you about all the way. He's a great hero!
Uncle Zhou, this is my husband, Tang Bo."
Zhou Yian narrowed his eyes slightly. His guess was confirmed. He had only one feeling in his heart: the eldest son of the Tang family was not even one ten-thousandth as good as the youngest daughter of the Tang family.
Zhou Yian nodded and didn't intend to respond. Even when Tang Bo followed Lu Shanwen in calling him "Uncle Zhou", Zhou Yian only nodded slightly.
"Come over and pick up the person. We'll go through the formalities later. We've compiled the interrogation records here. If you have any questions, just talk to my guards directly.
Country Y is different from China. Conflicts can happen at any moment, and I've been busy all day."
What Zhou Yian meant was, 'Don't look for me if you don't have anything to do. I'm busy as hell and don't have time to play the role of a kind elder here.'
Besides, Tang Ran is still blocking people here, so don't go to him to complain about trivial matters. Tang Bo is not from a certain department of the country. Even if he is beaten to a death by Tang Ran, as long as he is alive, it is a dispute between siblings. He is an ungrateful person and everyone has the right to punish him.
Anyone with eyes could see Zhou Yian's coldness, and it could be said that he didn't give any face at all.
But Lu Shanwen seemed not to understand what Zhou Yian said. To put it nicely, he is mentally strong, but to put it bluntly, he is thick-skinned.
"Uncle Zhou has worked so hard. It is a blessing for our country to have someone like you back home.
You really can't be in a hurry when it comes to the formalities. There are some things I need to talk to Uncle Zhou about in advance.
It has been more than a year since you came to this battlefield. So many things have happened in the country, some of which you don't know about.
Tang Rou, who is currently detained here, may need to have her interrogation records revised."
Zhou Yian had previously speculated that someone might be secretly manipulating Tang Rou after she returned, and some of the charges would end up being left unresolved like before.
But once the operation is done, traces will be left. Once the time comes to settle the score, no one can escape.
But what was his intention now? Did he want to help cover up and drag him into the scandal? Wasn't he underestimating Zhou Yian too much?
Zhou Yian simply didn't want to even bother to save face anymore.
"I was away from home for over a year, not stupid. The interrogation records were all conducted according to formal procedures, and I am responsible for their authenticity. Can you change them just like that?"
Lu Shanwen smiled as if he was very helpless.
"Uncle Lu, you misunderstood me. Please listen to me first."
Lu Shanwen's mouth seemed to be rented, and his babble was really confusing right and wrong, but who was Zhou Yian?
"Uncle Zhou, why don't you call my dad first? I'm not very good with words, and I'm afraid there's something I can't explain clearly. There's no rush to go through the formalities. Let's talk about it after you guys have communicated well."
"That's not necessary. I'm not very familiar with your father, and we're not in the same system. I'll just follow the procedures. As for the secret arrangements you mentioned, I don't understand, and Tang Rou didn't explain. All I can do is hand over the people and the normal procedures to you.
Also, you mentioned that Tang Rou is Tang Bo's eldest sister, so she's related to your family. Talk to your father about this and it's necessary to avoid suspicion. I'll also report this to my superiors."
Lu Shanwen cursed Zhou Yian inwardly for being inflexible. Wasn't it obvious that she was extending this olive branch? He deserved to be on the wrong side!
Although he was extremely dissatisfied with Zhou Yian, Lu Shanwen did not show it on his face.
"Uncle Zhou is right. The higher-ups are all aware of the situation, so when they made the arrangements, they didn't consider avoiding suspicion. It was just a matter of picking someone up.
It's been quite tiring along the way. Can we go back and rest for a while? I also need to ask for instructions from my superiors. After all, I'm here on a mission, and Uncle Zhou can't make things difficult for a little girl like me."
To a certain extent, this was considered a falling out, telling Zhou Yian clearly that anyone could file a complaint, and it all came down to who had the higher authority over the people's congress and who would give in first.
Would Zhou Yian be afraid of this?
"Go arrange a place for them to rest."
After saying that, Zhou Yian continued to lower his head and started to process documents. Even though Zhou Yian no longer paid attention to Lu Shanwen and Tang Bo, Lu Shanwen said a few more polite words and took Tang Bo out of Zhou Yian's office with a smile on his face the whole time. If you didn't know, you would think that they were having a good chat in the office.
