Chapter 480: Engaged Couple
The crowd stopped in tacit understanding, and everyone looked at Aretha with a little caution. They didn't believe that this young lady who was always looking for trouble would have any good thing to do by looking for Chen Zhuyi.
"Okay, then let's talk alone. Mom, you should go back quickly. It's safe enough with Jinzhi by my side."
Chen Zhuyi took the initiative to wave to everyone, then held Huo Jinzhi's arm and walked towards Aretha.
"Hand over Mu Yun, and you can make any conditions you want." Aretha took a deep breath, and waited until those people went a little further away before she lowered her voice and spoke out her demands impatiently.
A big part of the reason why Iris was arrested and investigated is that the clues he had were leaked.
There is so much important information that has passed through his hands. If Mu Yun can be found, even if his body is found, it will be enough to help Iris clear most of the suspicion.
At most, you will end up thinking that you don't know people well enough.
In this way, Iris will be able to regain sovereignty!
"Are you ordering me?" Chen Zhu asked back with a smile, curling his lips.
She can accept good negotiations, but she cannot accept someone making tough demands by relying on their status.
Moreover, Mu Yun was the person she had to save, so it was even more impossible for her to agree.
"I know your personality. You tend to be soft-hearted, but the situation is critical right now. I must save my fiancé's life."
"As long as you propose it and it's within my authority, I will consider agreeing to it."
Aretha's eyes were filled with urgency and a hint of pleading.
She had no intention of doing anything to help Iris, but last night her family suddenly sent her an urgent secret letter, asking her to find Mu Yun at all costs!
According to the information conveyed by Iris in prison, in addition to matters related to the national regime, Mu Yun also knew many secrets related to Iris's family.
Once these are spread out, it will bring about earth-shaking changes for the people in the big family. In the dark, countless eyes are staring at Aretha, trying to pull them down!
"What if I want the latest model of aircraft?" Chen Zhu looked at her face with a slight blush, as if she was forced into a corner and tentatively put forward her conditions.
Comrades are never commodities to be sold.
Chen Zhuyi asked this question just to see how important Mu Yun was to Aretha.
"I'll coordinate with you to stage a grand show. When the time comes, you can send someone to intercept the plane."
Aretha brought it up without blinking. This kind of business naturally cannot be done openly. It still requires everyone to cooperate with each other to be effective.
Chen Zhuyi's heart suddenly jumped, and he naturally understood that this was a good opportunity.
However, she would not exchange Mu Yun.
No matter how excited Aretha was, she could only be disappointed at this moment.
As Shen Zhuyi slowly shook her head, Aretha impatiently pressed her shoulders and said, "I've already given you enough leverage, even allowing you to propose conditions to me yourself. I don't understand why you would reject me."
"They are living people, not commodities in a market. Even I have no right to decide their life or death."
From a humanitarian perspective, the reason given by Chen Zhuyi is reasonable.
But people like Aretha always treat others as chess pieces to be manipulated.
Seeing that Chen Zhuyi hadn't wavered, she couldn't help but take the initiative to increase the stakes: "Including this time's tank guns, I can also find a way to leave you a clothes hanger. With these two heavy weapons and the resources you have obtained, you should be able to catch up quickly!"
You know, the professors brought back by Chen Zhuyi and his team this time come from all walks of life, and there are even experts in military industry.
Not only that, because of some small fleas in the country, those suppressed doctors who dared not resist have also undergone different changes!
Several people are trying to come back.
Even if they can't produce useful data, with their clever brains, it's only a matter of time before they develop something comparable to a lighthouse.
Seeing Aretha so anxious, Chen Zhuyi grabbed her hand and slowly put it down: "Dear, I have no right to decide whether anyone stays or leaves."
"I will respect every life that wants to survive, and I also believe that they are not just objects that can be used for exchange."
After saying this, Chen Zhuyi slowly shook his head, indicating that he could do nothing to help, and planned to leave.
Aretha stood there with her hands clenched into fists, but her eyes looked even more confused. Is there really someone who would not give up on his comrades in the face of so many temptations of benefits?
It's not even possession, but a past enemy!
She didn't quite understand.
But one thing is clear, if she fails to complete the tasks assigned by the family this time, she will definitely be reprimanded when she returns, and even her rights may be taken away!
Thinking of this, the coldness in Risa's eyes became even stronger, but she did not do anything to Shen Zhuyi after all, but returned to her room first.
"If this matter can be made into a big deal, and Chen Zhuyi arbitrarily replaces a national-level figure to make a decision, what kind of chaos will it cause?"
A man was leaning on the bed, holding an apple in his hand. When he saw the door being opened, he was not nervous at all. Instead, he smiled and spoke proactively.
The moment Aretha saw the person coming, she quickly took a step forward and closed the door, looking left and right to prevent anyone from watching her.
"Dear, we should think about how to expand our own interests. A little woman is interesting, but that's all."
Seeing Aretha's flustered expression, the man just smiled and walked over, gently touched her long hair, and gently breathed a breath of warm air into her ear. His behavior was indescribably intimate.
"I know you care about me very much, that's why I came to you the first time."
Aretha slapped him in the face for this somewhat rude behavior.
The man seemed to have expected this. He reached out and held her wrist, stroking it bit by bit, admiring her slender, white fingers.
"After all, we are an engaged couple. How can you be so cold to your fiancé?"
The regret in Eric's tone was so strong that it was about to overflow.
Aretha, who had finally calmed down, stared at him intently.
If even the prison in the lighthouse can't hold this man, then what is the purpose of him appearing here?
"How did you escape?" After considering for a moment, Aretha took the initiative to ask about the topic that interested her most at the moment.
