"Go away, I'm perfectly healthy!" Wang Haiwen said with a laugh.
"Okay, that's all for now. We can talk about it again when we meet tomorrow."
"Okay, goodbye Uncle Wang!"
Liu Zi waited for the other party to hang up first before she hung up herself.
Now that she was awake, Liu Zi prepared to get up and wash.
I had just put the toothbrush in my mouth when someone knocked on the door.
"Who is it?" Liu Zi's words were not very clear.
"Me!" Liu Daqiang said from outside.
Liu Zi opened the door and Liu Daqiang frowned as he looked at his daughter who had just gotten up.
In the past, he would have started cursing long ago, saying that it was so late and he still wasn't up, and the house wasn't tidy up. What kind of place was this?
But in the past two years, he has reflected a lot. Apart from some issues of principle that he still insists on, he no longer thinks the others are important.
"I was rushing to finish my manuscript last night. I just got up, I'll get ready in a bit."
Liu Zi was subjected to military-style management from a young age. Her quilts and sheets had to be folded neatly, and her room had to be kept spotless.
She knew her father was unhappy to see her room messy, so she had to hurry up and finish washing up.
But when she stepped out of the bathroom, she was unexpectedly startled.
Her father, Liu Daqiang, was tidying up the table for her, and the blankets and sheets on the bed had already been pulled up.
"Go to bed earlier next time. Staying up late is bad for your health," Liu Daqiang said to her as he heard the noise.
Seeing the stack of drafts on Liu Zi's desk, he knew that the girl must have been busy again last night.
"Dad, I can do it myself." This really startled Liu Zi; it had been so long since her father had helped her pack.
"You're such a grown-up, you need to take care of your health. If anything happens, tell us right away, don't try to handle everything on your own," Liu Daqiang nagged.
"Okay, I understand."
After tidying up, Liu Daqiang sat down on a chair to the side.
"What happened?" Liu Zi looked at him with some confusion.
"Lately, I've felt like someone's following me. I just went out to buy food and bumped into them. They told me to come over and ask you, saying they know everything. Is there something you haven't told me or your mom?" Liu Daqiang frowned as he looked at his daughter.
Liu Zi lowered her head and rubbed the back of her head.
Is this what you call a professional bodyguard?
Liu Zi is starting to doubt whether she has overestimated Longwei Security's capabilities, since they can't even compare to an old man nearing retirement.
"That's right, that's right..."
Liu Zi stammered as she recounted what had happened in Hong Kong to her father, Liu Daqiang, who was so angry he almost raised his eyebrows.
Why didn't you tell me about something this big?
At first, I felt that distant water couldn't solve an immediate problem, and that you were worrying unnecessarily. But after the matter was resolved, I was afraid that you would worry again, so...
Liu Daqiang took a deep breath and then asked, "How's things going now?"
"The results are almost in. The Hong Kong government, in conjunction with the central government, is cracking down on organized crime. They'll take advantage of this momentum to take down these people together."
"Who did you ask for help, and what kind of payment did they ask for?" Liu Daqiang knew this was no simple matter.
"They took a liking to a proposal I had and invited me to be their company's consultant." Liu Zi made it very clear that she earned all of this through her own abilities.
"Okay, let's leave it at that for now. If they can't resolve it, they need to tell me immediately. We can't risk everyone's safety." Liu Daqiang was worried about the safety of his wife and two children.
"I'm sorry, Dad, I'll remember," Liu Zi said guiltily.
"Alright, pack your things and come out to eat! The breakfast I bought is all cold." Liu Daqiang stood up and walked out.
As Liu Zi watched Liu Daqiang's disappearing figure, she truly felt his change and felt much more at ease.
Fearing she would miss her return trip, Liu Zi took a taxi to the military region early in the morning.
As for the car, it will be left to Liu Daqiang; it will be more convenient for him to take everyone out.
After Liu Zi gave her name at the entrance of the military region, she was taken to a small conference room.
After waiting for a while, Wang Haiwen led several officers of similar rank into the room.
"Zizi, let me introduce you. This is Director Zhou from the Beijing Military Region, who is in charge of coordinating the joint performance between the two military regions."
Liu Zi didn't speak, but raised an eyebrow. Did that mean it was approved?
The Beijing Military Region acted quickly; their personnel have already arrived.
Wang Haiwen didn't keep her in suspense and gave her a definite answer directly: "Last Friday, the National Day Preparatory Committee held an emergency meeting, and in the afternoon they informed us that 'The Motherland Will Not Forget' had been selected."
Liu Zi wasn't surprised. How could a piece of music that would become almost an official song in later generations not attract people today?
"They agreed to our proposal to perform it as a chorus, making it a selected program for the National Day Gala."
Wang Haiwen was filled with pride; his eldest niece was truly amazing.
The headquarters and military region leaders were very pleased with this and praised his work. He's almost retired, so he might even receive an award for it.
"Miss Liu, we have heard of your great reputation before. Our Beijing Military Region greatly admires your talent and ability." Director Zhou also came with a mission; his superiors had instructed him to try his best to clear up any misunderstandings between him and Comrade Liu Zi.
Liu Zi chuckled self-deprecatingly: "I guess it's not a good reputation!"
Director Zhou laughed heartily upon hearing this, not taking Liu Zi's teasing to heart.
"We became friends after a fight! It was all a misunderstanding before, I hope Miss Liu won't take offense."
"How is Qi Qiang?" Liu Zi suddenly asked, pursing her lips.
"After evaluation by relevant psychological experts from the military region and authoritative domestic institutions, he was finally diagnosed with post-traumatic stress disorder (PTSD), which will require psychological intervention in the later stages." Director Zhou paused for a moment.
"We also want to thank Ms. Liu for the reminder. As for Qi Qiang, he has already submitted his discharge report, but the leaders are still reviewing it and have not yet approved it."
"It's not my fault, is it?" Liu Zi mumbled, feeling somewhat uneasy.
She knew that Qi Qiang was a combat hero of the Beijing Special Forces Brigade, who had made countless merits. She felt it was a bit unfair to let such a brave soldier retire like this.
well!
We really owe him!
"I will apply for an invitation for him to attend the National Day celebrations in the name of our studio. Hopefully, this will improve his condition!"
Liu Zi thought to herself, "If they could change their environment and experience the strength and development of their motherland, they would feel that their efforts would be more meaningful!"
"Our military region also has..." Director Zhou quickly replied.
"I know, but your military region has a lot of people, so allocating a spot to a company commander wouldn't be easy. Director Yan has been quite accommodating to our studio, so it shouldn't be a problem."
Liu Zi thought that since she had already done two shows, it would be unreasonable to refuse this request.
