Chapter 1590 A Superior Move
"Dad, can you explain this problem to me?"
"Wow, you actually asked me to explain a problem to you? Has the sun risen in the west?"
"Hehe, it's mainly because Teacher Yan has been asking me questions a lot these past few days, and if I can't answer them, she gives me extra help."
"Special treatment? How did she give you special treatment?"
Li Ye paused, then his face turned cold.
Two days ago, after returning from school, Wen Leyu discussed with Li Ye that even if they didn't change schools, they should at least change the class. But before they even had a chance to change it, their daughter was already getting special tutoring.
Little Dou'er blinked her big eyes and said, "He was explaining problems to me! He explained them in great detail, and he was all smiles, completely different from before. But I think it's better not to get this kind of special treatment."
Li Ye immediately understood that although Xiao Dou'er couldn't explain it clearly, she already felt "uncomfortable" with Teacher Yan's sudden change.
Why did Xu Xianpeng dare to break his classmate's nose?
Isn't it just because of the teacher's various special tutoring sessions and preferential treatment?
"Then Xiaodou will master all the questions thoroughly, so that the teacher won't give you any extra help, okay?"
Little Dou nodded her head and agreed, "Yes, that's what I think. Also, Xu Xianpeng brought me a gift yesterday, saying it was to apologize, but I don't care for his things!"
I didn't suffer any loss, so he shouldn't apologize to me; he should apologize to the classmates he bullied.

Li Ye was immediately filled with admiration for his wife. Although his daughter and son were afraid of Wen Leyu, Wen Leyu had been subtly instilling values ββin them since they were two or three years old. At least 80% of the credit for Xiao Dou'er's current "cleverness" was due to Wen Leyu.
The little guy is so young, yet he already knows who he shouldn't associate with and who he should keep his distance from.
"Ring ring~"
Li Ye's phone rang, and when he answered it, it was Ni Dashen calling.
"Hey Li Ye, this is Lao Ni. Lao Bu came over today and insisted on getting together. We were supposed to meet tomorrow or the day after, but they suddenly got a notice to leave tomorrow, so I hope you can understand."
Li Ye sensed a hint of embarrassment in Ni Dashen's tone, because such last-minute "get-togethers" always felt somewhat "utilitarian."
Especially since Li Ye had helped Bu Qingjun resolve the funding issue for satellite navigation research and development a month or two ago, and now he was in such a hurry, it inevitably made Li Ye worry.
But Li Ye said kindly, "What's so hard to understand? Shall we go to your house then?"
Master Ni quickly said, "Then let's come to my house! Old Bu and the others just finished their meeting, and I asked them to gather at my house!"
"Okay, then I'll buy some cooked food and have a drink with you."
Temporary get-togethers don't feel uncomfortable under certain circumstances, namely with like-minded friends or even bitter buddies.
Lao Ni and Bu Qingjun might not be considered best friends with Li Ye, but they share the same interests; their goal is the resurgence of China.
...
Li Ye entered Ni Dashen's house and was startled by Bu Qingjun's appearance.
Because people wear less clothing this season, Li Ye could clearly see that Bu Qingjun had lost a lot of weight since the last time they met.
The problem is that it's only been a little over a month since we last met!
Moreover, Bu Qingjun looked very energetic, with neat hair and beard, but the observant Li Ye could see the deep weariness in his eyes.
This proves that Bu Qingjun is putting on a brave face; she is clearly exhausted, but she still wants others to think she is very strong.
Li Ye couldn't help but ask, "Old Bu, have you not slept for days?"
Bu Qingjun laughed heartily and said nonchalantly, "How could I not sleep? It's not that I didn't sleep at all, it's just that I slept very little."
Li Ye pursed his lips, unsure of what to say.
Sleep deprivation is a form of punishment; even the most resilient criminals cannot withstand the exhaustion of sleepless interrogations.
Sleep deprivation is a form of slow poison that destroys a person's body without them even realizing it. When the poison suddenly takes effect, there's often no time to save them.
Finally, Li Ye held Bu Qingjun's hand and said earnestly, "Old Bu, you must get seven hours of sleep every day. If your health collapses, others may not be able to continue your path."
Bu Qingjun paused, a bitter smile appearing on his lips, and then said, "No, even if I really fail, we have young people like Xiao Xu. We won't let the investment you spearheaded go down the drain."
Li Ye knew that Bu Qingjun had misunderstood. He looked at the female PhD who had almost drunk him under the table last time, and then said bluntly, "Let's not talk about money. Dr. Xu and his team have no problem with their technology, but they have far less influence than you. You can't afford to break down."
Bu Qingjun paused for a moment, then laughed and said, "Hahaha, don't worry, I'm perfectly healthy! It's just that I've been too busy for the past month or so. Now that things are basically resolved, I'll get a good rest for a few days."
"Has the matter been resolved?"
Li Ye immediately understood that the ship in the Indian Ocean had been inspected, and the news would probably be released today or tomorrow, stating that the accusations made by a certain evil Western country against China were baseless and that there were no deadly weapons on board.
"It's been resolved."
Bu Qingjun gritted her teeth and said, "Although it's resolved, we can't forget the humiliation we suffered or the losses we made. Otherwise, if someone casually makes a fuss about it, they can wrong us for months. How will we save face then?"
Li Ye nodded and said, "Indeed, this grudge cannot be forgotten."
The fact that a cargo ship with free sovereignty was forcibly detained by a country unrelated to it for more than a month is a major event that attracts worldwide attention and greatly damages the influence of China.
Meanwhile, both Master Ni and Dr. Xu looked indignant, with Dr. Xu's eyes even reddening.
However, Li Ye, who came from decades later, had some other thoughts besides indignation.
Since the collapse of the Soviet Union in 1991, the Beacon has had no worthy adversaries in the world. It goes without saying who its only potential adversary is.
So how could a certain mysterious great power, which had devised the strategy of "besieging Wei to rescue Zhao" thousands of years ago, possibly not have noticed this crisis?
The strategy of "besieging Wei to rescue Zhao" and "attacking the place that the enemy must defend" applies to this blue planet. Isn't the place with a cloth over its head, the richest place in the world, the place that the lighthouse must defend?
Therefore, the beacon suspects that the mysterious superpower provided a certain Middle Eastern superpower with a powerful weapon, which may be a top-level contest that ordinary people cannot see. In the end, the mysterious superpower was just one step ahead and eliminated the enemy.
