"Yes, Mr. Lin, I understand! I'm sorry to have worried you!"
"Alright, you don't need to apologize to me. At least you're not missing any limbs."
After finishing speaking, Old Lin looked Chen Dong up and down.
Finally, a faint smile appeared on his face.
Seeing Elder Lin's reaction, Chen Dong finally felt relieved.
Sigh, sometimes the care from elders is really hard to bear.
This love is so profound!
"You are a capable and exceptionally talented individual. Based on what you have accomplished, calling you a 'national hero' would not be an exaggeration. But you must learn to protect yourself. Our country desperately needs talents like you. As the art of war says: 'First make yourself invincible, then make the enemy vulnerable.' Do you understand?"
Chen Dong replied, "I know, first I need to make myself invincible!"
Old Lin nodded, “Yes… but the most important thing is to ensure your own safety! This is not a time of war, and there is no need for you to charge into battle. However, in social life, conflicts will always exist, and danger is always unavoidable.”
He took a sip of tea and continued, "However, the intensity may be lower than before, and there are more aspects that can be controlled. Therefore, you must do your best within your control and make sure to protect yourself."
At this point, Old Lin paused, took a few deep breaths, and then picked up his teacup again to slowly sip his tea.
It was clear that this long speech, coupled with the suppression of Chen Dong earlier, had put a lot of pressure on Old Lin's body.
This scene warmed Chen Dong's heart.
This is the deep love and care that elders have for their children!
"Mr. Lin, I've remembered everything you said, and I will definitely keep it in mind!"
"We must put it into action!" Old Lin said, his eyes wide.
"Yes, that's right! We must put it into action!"
"Alright, have some water!" Old Lin gestured to Chen Dong.
Chen Dong picked up his teacup, took a small sip, and found the tea to be just the right temperature.
Could it be that Old Lin calculated the time so precisely?
Who knows, Old Lin might be a military strategist.
Forget it, I don't want to think about these things anymore...
Chen Dong refocused his attention on the tea in front of him.
The tea in the cup has a slightly greenish hue, with a few tea leaves floating and sinking, displaying their exquisite beauty.
Before even taking a sip, the rich aroma of tea fills your nostrils.
The initial taste is slightly bitter, but it quickly turns sweet.
The sweetness and bitterness activate every taste bud in the mouth, and then the warm water flows down the throat like a silver river falling from the sky.
The warm sensation extended from my mouth into my stomach.
"Excellent tea!" Chen Dong exclaimed repeatedly.
"Hmm, it's nourishing and calming. Enjoy it, just this one cup..." Old Lin said calmly.
"..." Chen Dong stopped speaking and just sipped and savored the taste.
Chen Dong thought that Old Lin would talk about the subway construction next, but to his surprise, he didn't mention it at all. Instead, he pointed to the newspaper on the coffee table and said, "Take a look, this is the article I marked!"
Chen Dong picked up the newspaper and first looked at the date.
It was printed a week ago.
In other words, the article published in the newspaper a few days before Mr. Lin called him had caught his attention.
Chen Dong saw that the newspaper was folded up, with one article sticking out.
Unsurprisingly, this article was highlighted by Mr. Lin with a thick red pen.
Its title is: Who will feed the Chinese people?
Indeed, the title immediately captured the reader's attention.
Chen Dong was immediately captivated.
In his previous life, he had heard of such articles.
Moreover, Chen Dong knew that it was a huge lie fabricated by American scholars!
