Chapter 1674: A Show of Power
Fabian knew that these people were from the Russian Federal Security Service, but at that moment he found that these people did not seem very reliable. It was snowing heavily here and the road conditions were extremely bad. You have to be very careful when driving, and you also took a sip of wine?
Sadyev smiled and said, "Don't worry, Mr. Fabian Cousteau. Welcome to Russia. You'd be scared to drive here if you don't drink a few sips of alcohol."
It wouldn't have mattered if he didn't say it, but after he did, Fabian felt even more scared.
Sadyev held the steering wheel with one hand and handed Fabian a wine flask from his arms with the other, saying, "Mr. Cousteau, why don't you drink some wine? If you get drunk, you won't be scared anymore!"
Fabian almost cursed: "Hey, hey, hey! Don't look back! Can't you just keep your eyes straight ahead?"
When Sadyev handed over the wine jug, his entire upper body twisted around and he didn't even look at the road!
Xiao Peng took the wine jug and asked, "What kind of wine is in it?"
Sadyev hadn't turned his head yet: "Mr. Xiao, try it. I guarantee it's a wine you've never tasted before."
Xiao Peng laughed and said, "I don't want to hear that. I've tried all kinds of wine."
Sadyev said, "Would you like to try it?"
Fabian was on the verge of collapse. "Sadaryev, can you please turn your head back and drive properly? Xiao, I'm going to call Ivan and get a new driver right now!"
Xiao Peng laughed and said, "Fabian, don't you understand? Sadyev and the others must hold high positions in the FSB. It's a waste of talent to have them serve as our driver and bodyguard. They must be feeling uncomfortable. This is a way to intimidate us."
Fabian was furious after hearing this, "Am I a spoiled parent? If you don't want to do it, just get out. You didn't want anyone following you anyway. Do you really think you're that serious? Can they be better than Kasim and the others? Even if they are better than Kasim, can they still catch up with you?"
Sadyev's face paled after hearing this. He wanted to be angry but didn't dare to. He knew that protecting Xiao Peng was extremely important. But as Xiao Peng had said, in their eyes, protecting a billionaire was like using a butcher knife to kill a chicken, so they wanted to give them a warning.
Fabian was not as brave as Xiao Peng, and he turned hostile. This frightened Sadyev: if he really sent them back, he would definitely be punished.
Xiao Peng patted Fabian on the shoulder. "Alright, good-for-nothings are mediocre, and talented people all have tempers. But Sadyev, no matter how bad your temper is, you still have to pay attention to your responsibilities. If anything goes wrong, it won't be me who'll suffer, it'll be you. I understand you have a temper, but that doesn't mean I'll accept it. We now have two choices. The first is to control your temper and do your job well. Otherwise, you should apply to your superiors for a replacement right now! Fabian is right, you have a temper, but we're not your punching bags!"
Sadyev's expression kept changing after hearing this, and he finally said: "I'm sorry, Mr. Cousteau, I'm sorry, Mr. Xiao, I will do better in the future."
If Xiao Peng really drove them away, Sadyev would definitely be punished. As Xiao Peng said, these five people were instructor-level masters in the Federal Security Service. It was really a waste of their talents to let them perform this kind of bodyguard mission - it was understandable to let them protect a national leader, but to let them protect a billionaire?
It can be said that it was their work error.
After the transformation, the KGB was divided into two departments: the Federal Security Service and the Foreign Intelligence Service.
The Foreign Intelligence Service was aware of Xiao Peng's affairs. Anna had brought them a lot of intelligence, including Ivan, who had been working abroad for years and was also connected to the Foreign Intelligence Service. Sadyev and his colleagues were from the Federal Security Service, and they had no idea what Xiao Peng had done and how much help he had provided to Russia.
In order to protect Xiao Peng, the Foreign Intelligence Service did not disclose what he had done, so in Sadyev's eyes they were just protecting a billionaire.
It’s really true that money can make the world go round!
As the elite of the Federal Security Bureau, these people are top-notch in terms of both technology and awareness. They felt insulted when they received such a mission! That's why they wanted to show off their power to Xiao Peng and the others.
But they imagined that this was a show of force for Xiao Peng, and they would be fine—after all, Ivan had already said they were from the FSB! If ordinary wealthy people knew they were from the FSB, they would be treated like idols, so who would dare to offend them directly? Unexpectedly, Fabian acted without hesitation, turning on them. This actually put them in even more trouble! Fortunately, Xiao Peng gave him a way out, and he quickly stepped down and was done with it!
Could Fabian tolerate his bad habits? Fabian spent all day at the Salvage Alliance, and the people he usually contacted were high-ranking officials from EU countries. How could he be afraid of these people from the Federal Security Service?
I'll spoil your bad habits!
So even though Sadyev apologized, Fabian was still furious: "Xiao, what kind of people did Ivant assign to you? I don't know how old they are, and they have a bad temper!"
Sadyev wanted to retort, but in the end he controlled his temper, took a deep breath and told himself: I will endure it!
Xiao Peng patted Fabian on the shoulder and said, "Alright, it's no big deal. Sadyev has done a great job. If I were him, I'd probably have scared the crap out of you by now! They were sent to protect me, and I think they're pretty good people. Sadyev, didn't Ivan arrange a room for me in the hotel? You guys don't have to run around for the time being. I'll arrange rooms for you and you can stay at my place. But I'm sorry to bother you with your work report."
Sadyev nodded after hearing this.
Xiao Peng opened Sadyev's wine bottle at this time. He took a sip and his face was full of joy: "Fabian, come and try it, it's good wine!"
"Huh?" Fabian was still angry, but when he heard Xiao Peng say that, he became curious. What kind of wine could Xiao Peng say was good?
Xiao Peng handed the wine jug to Fabian: "This kind of wine must be drunk in big gulps! Take a big gulp!"
Fabian took the wine jug and took a big gulp without saying a word, then spit it out with a "puff". While spitting, he deliberately turned his head towards Xiao Peng: from the moment the wine entered his mouth, he knew that he had been fooled by Xiao Peng!
But Xiao Peng seemed to have guessed that Fabian would do this. He immediately picked up Fabian's coat and blocked it in front of himself. Now all the wine from Fabian sprayed onto his clothes!
Fabian didn't care that his coat was sprayed with wine, but said angrily: "Xiao, you are kidding me! What the hell is this?"
