Chapter 398 Abandoning the Homeland
"It's unlikely. The relationship between Hong Kong and those inland people has never been good. You should be the one who knows this best."
Mu Yun answered in a serious tone.
Disputes between Hong Kong and the mainland have always existed. It is not only a dispute between the countries to which they belong, but more importantly, there are hands pushing it in the dark!
The Lighthouse Country's plan over the years has been to make these people bow their heads, and they will use any means to achieve this.
As long as no one disobeys me, that’s enough!
"Even though I used some tricks, it all comes down to your mutual suspicion and distrust. What does that have to do with me?"
The man said it as a matter of course, not thinking that there was anything wrong with what he did.
This attitude makes people hate him so much that they just want to punch him in the face.
"This is not your nature. Since you have decided to abandon your homeland, there is no need to show such an expression over their trivial matters."
The man looked up at Mu Yun, curled his lips in disgust, and the contempt in his eyes did not disappear at all.
Even though he had chosen to bow his head again, Mu Yun was very clear that he would always be the one excluded by them.
Background determines everything. Without such snow-white skin, no matter how much you give, you will not be seen by this group of people.
They will always point fingers at others from a high position.
Thinking of this, Mu Yun took a deep breath and suppressed the anger that was bursting out of his chest.
"Nothing, I'll leave first."
He said this coldly and was about to open the door when a voice came from behind him.
"Since you value this man so much, you can try to recruit him if necessary. If he is willing to bow down, his status will not be lower than yours. Otherwise... kill him before they leave."
The fire in Mu Yun's heart could no longer be suppressed. He turned around, walked step by step to the man, and slapped the table hard with his hand.
"I don't like men who are talented and just happen to have a little ability. If our plan is shaken, who can take responsibility?"
Even now, the man is still giving orders as if it is a matter of course. From his point of view, anyone who may harm their interests should be killed immediately.
"They are just a young couple who came here to do business!"
"You know very well who Professor Huo is. He's even showing signs of leaving. What if this person happens to be the key step right now?"
The man showed disdain throughout Mu Yun's argument and shook his head: "No wonder you are so useless. You are already a traitor. Feelings, especially useless ones, should be something you can discard."
Even if Mu Yun took the information from the Lighthouse Country back now, no one would praise his hard work and greatness.
However, even Mu Yun did not think it was appropriate to watch a happy young couple die in front of his eyes!
"I can give it up, but I'm still a human being after all. I won't be so cruel as to abandon everything around me!"
"If you insist on doing so, then I will withdraw from this mission. You may be able to find a more suitable successor who is more brutal than me."
In terms of the mission, Mu Yun still has some choice.
He said this indifferently, and this time he really left. The door was slammed shut, showing his anger.
The man sitting in the high seat did not show any emotion at all, and even shook his head in disappointment.
"A waste that is carried away by emotions will never truly stand on the top of the mountain."
Mu Yun did not return to the first scene where he supervised them, but found a place to calm down.
Huo Jinzhi, who was unaware that he had been plotted against, had already taken Chen Zhuyi out.
There are many people guarding the detached villa where Professor Huo lives, and identities need to be verified and checked carefully on every floor.
"Rather than saying they are rare talents, it's better to say... these people are born to serve in this prison." Chen Zhuyi couldn't help but shake his head and sigh at such a living environment.
Deep down, she still felt a little sympathy for these professors.
They are the country's most important assets, but they don't even have the right to freedom. The people of the Lighthouse Country value them and are willing to exploit their talents, but they are always on guard and do not allow them to make any moves.
Thinking of this, Chen Zhuyi's expression changed several times, and he walked in with a sigh.
Professor Huo was not that old, at least a little younger than Chen Zhuyi had originally expected. He was sitting there drinking scented tea, with his lover next to him.
"Uncle Huo, I brought my lover to see you specially. You left too early and haven't seen her yet, right?" Huo Jinzhi greeted him with a smile.
Professor Huo was somewhat puzzled by today's visit, which showed that Huo Jinzhi had not originally planned to come again.
However, he reacted quickly and immediately asked his wife to get the red envelope.
Ms. Lin Ting, who was called, turned around and went into the study. After some consideration, she decided to just take the coins out.
"We still need to check these things to make sure there's nothing there that shouldn't be!"
The guard who was in charge of watching over them had a cold and strong tone, and showed no tenderness towards these people.
Chen Zhuyi didn't mind, but when Lin Ting saw this, she clenched the red envelope in her hand unhappily: "This is our blessing to the newlyweds. If someone takes this red envelope in advance and opens it, the blessing will be gone!"
"When you first agreed to hire us, you also said you were willing to respect our personal customs and habits. Now you're going to eat your words?"
The professors from the inland are somewhat dissatisfied with the targeting and surveillance they have been subjected to here during this period.
If even some of their own customs are not respected, bigger troubles will definitely arise.
The two guards looked at each other, not daring to make a decision.
"As long as you open it, we will no longer provide any research data to the higher authorities, even at the cost of death if necessary!" Lin Ting had a hot temper and just threw down the words at this moment.
The guards immediately stopped looking.
A little Lin Ting is nothing, but her female mentor is a famous hot pepper.
If anyone dares to make her unhappy, she will shoot him to death. She is so quick!
"It's just a red envelope, nothing to be ashamed of." Chen Zhuyi took it with both hands and smiled. He took the initiative to open the red envelope in front of them and shook the money inside: "Do you need to count the money? Maybe there is a special code?"
