Zhou Jiasheng stopped thinking about it. At this moment, with his beloved by his side, what could be more important than expressing his feelings to Cao?
"Fuck, I really like you, I really like you, I hope you can seriously consider being my girlfriend!" Zhou Jiasheng seized the opportunity and repeated the same old tune again.
"Okay." Cao nodded.
"I will treat you well for the rest of my life... What? Damn, you... did you agree just now? Did you really agree?" Zhou Jiasheng was so nervous that he stuttered. He thought he would have to waste a lot of time talking before Damn would agree to be his girlfriend!
"Jiasheng, I agree to be your girlfriend. I was too awkward before, but from now on, I will treat you well." Zhao Cao looked at the "ugly" Zhou Jiasheng, but her heart was filled with sweetness. Regardless of whether she was worthy of this outstanding man, at least, Zhou Jiasheng was sincere to her at this moment. Even if Zhou Jiasheng would regret it later, she didn't care. She wanted to hold on to this warmth, she really wanted it so much.
"Great! Cao agreed to be my girlfriend! Ouch!" Zhou Jiasheng was so happy that he couldn't help but jump up. This jump pulled Zhou Jiasheng's injured leg, and he screamed in pain and fell back onto the sofa.
"Jiasheng, don't move around. Your leg is injured and you need to take good care of it."
······
The couple was being affectionate with each other, and Zhou Yuanyuan quietly pulled General Zhou out of the living room.
Neither Zhao Cao nor Zhou Jiasheng noticed that General Zhou and Zhou Yuanyuan had left. In their eyes, nothing else existed except each other.
"Hey, why should we hide? I think Jiasheng and his girlfriend are quite generous and don't mind us watching from the side." General Zhou didn't want to leave at all. He was having a great time watching! Seeing Zhou Jiasheng, who was like a wooden man, awkwardly imitating love words and Cao's blushing face, all of this made General Zhou feel very happy.
"Grandpa Zeng, what should we do if Cao comes to her senses and runs away shyly? Also, don't you want to know what happened to my brother today? If Cao hadn't called me today, Zhou Jiasheng might have been kidnapped and taken abroad." Zhou Yuanyuan pouted.
"What? Jiasheng's injury was caused by you being beaten?" General Zhou became nervous.
General Zhou was so nervous that he forgot to control the sound of his voice. As soon as General Zhou finished speaking, Zhou Yuanyuan quickly looked over at Zhou Jiasheng and Zhao Cao. Seeing that Zhao Cao and Zhou Jiasheng didn't pay attention to what she and General Zhou said, she felt relieved.
Zhou Yuanyuan and Zhao Cao had known each other for years, and they knew she had a somewhat quirky personality. To put it mildly, she had a strong sense of pride; to put it bluntly, she couldn't tolerate even the slightest injustice. If Cao knew that Zhou Yuanyuan had deliberately injured Zhou Jiasheng to gain her sympathy, she'd likely end up with the shortest-lived couple in history.
Because of this, Zhou Yuanyuan planned to keep the fact that she had "cheated" on Zhao Cao a secret to herself and never let Zhao Cao know about it for the rest of her life.
Just a few minutes had passed and General Zhou said this. It would have scared Zhou Yuanyuan to death.
After General Zhou stopped talking, Zhou Yuanyuan observed for half a minute. She realized that Zhou Jiasheng and Zhao Cao were too preoccupied with their affection to notice them. Then she lowered her voice and said, "Grandpa Zeng, my brother was indeed kidnapped. His kidnappers were instructed by agents from Country X."
"What?" A trace of anger flashed across General Zhou's face.
This is Kyoto! The people of Country X are so arrogant! This is a slap in the face! No, I can't just swallow this anger.
"Come on, come on, be good. Let's go to the study and have a good chat." General Zhou called Zhou Yuanyuan and walked towards the study first.
Half an hour later, General Zhou had learned the whole story of Zhou Jiasheng's kidnapping from Zhou Yuanyuan.
Zhou Yuanyuan told the Chaos Pearl not to touch the men who had kidnapped Zhou Jiasheng, as if to "play the long game" to catch the big fish. Following this line, Zhou Yuanyuan "fished" the big fish hidden in the shadows.
The spiritual consciousness that Zhou Yuanyuan left on those big men allowed Zhou Yuanyuan to see the mastermind behind the kidnapping of Zhou Jiasheng - Mr. Smith, an agent from Country X.
Mr. Smith entered China as an international friend who supports China's development. Currently, Mr. Smith is working at a university in Kyoto.
In fact, Mr. Smith has been collecting Chinese intelligence by relying on his identity as a university professor.
Zhou Jiasheng's laboratory is currently working on a project concerning the application of the most advanced thermal weapons in the world.
Country X has been studying this topic for ten years, but there has been no progress.
Just in the past two months, Zhou Jiasheng's laboratory has made significant progress in this research. It's estimated that results will be achieved soon. With this research achievement, China's overall military strength will surge forward, entering a new stage.
After Smith learned the news, he passed the information back to his country.
The top leaders of Country X ordered Smith to obtain Zhou Jiasheng's research results at any cost.
Zhou Jiasheng's laboratory looks simple, but in fact, Zhou Yuanyuan has set up a protective formation.
It was simply impossible for Smith to send someone into the laboratory.
In the end, Smith had to spend a large sum of money to bribe a peripheral staff member in Zhou Jiasheng's laboratory.
This peripheral staff member was Wu Jian, a mere handyman in Zhou Jiasheng's lab. He had no access to the lab's core secrets, and stealing research results was out of his reach. However, he was still capable of monitoring Zhou Jiasheng's movements.
After Wu Jian received Smith's money, Zhou Jiasheng stayed in the laboratory for several months without going out.
Just when Smith was furious, Zhao Cao came to Kyoto and called Zhou Jiasheng. Zhou Jiasheng put down the half-finished work in his hands and went to see Cao.
Wu Jian finally found an opportunity to tip off Smith.
Smith received the news too late. By the time he took action, Zhou Jiasheng had already returned to the laboratory.
Smith concluded from Zhou Jiasheng's unusual behavior that he might leave soon. Based on Zhou Jiasheng's usual behavior, Smith felt that it would be impossible to buy the experimental results from Zhou Jiasheng. If that was the case, he might as well bring Zhou Jiasheng back to Country X. Then, Zhou Jiasheng's existing experimental results would be theirs.
