Hello, Mr. Major General

“Really?” Lu Yuan looked very surprised. “Do I really look like your uncle who passed away in the Soviet Union more than 20 years ago?! Ah, how old was your uncle when he passed away? Do you have a photo of him?”

The Ace of the Far East: “…”

“My uncle was probably in his early 30s when he passed away. If he hadn’t passed away so early, he would have been a good hand in our KGB,” The Ace of the Far East said regretfully, “I don’t have a photo of him by my side, but if you want to take a look, wait until I call my family in the Soviet Union and have them scan one for me.”

“That’s such a pity. To die young at such a young age… the heavens are jealous of talent, the heavens are jealous of talent!” Lu Yuan patted his knee with one hand and raised his head to sigh. He appeared extremely extremely regretful.

The Committee of State Security nodded slightly. “Yes, heaven is indeed jealous of the talented. So when I saw you, I was really shocked and thought that I had mistaken you for someone else. How could someone who had passed away more than 20 years ago appear alive again? So I really had mistaken you for someone else.”

“Hehe, after more than 20 years, you can still clearly remember your uncle’s appearance. Your memory is really amazing.” Lu Yuan stood up without batting an eye. “What do you want to drink? Coffee or tea?”

“I only drink water.” The KGB agent seemed to be a very disciplined person. He didn’t smoke or drink alcohol. He only drank water and didn’t even touch drinks. “My memory is really good, especially when it comes to facial recognition.”

Lu Yuan brought him a bottle of mineral water and placed it on the coffee table between them. He held a can of beer and opened the lid with his fingers. He raised his head and took a sip. “That’s really rare. No wonder you became a KGB agent.”

“You flatter me, President Lu. The KGB is also a proper job. It’s better than working in a casino at a young age.” The Ace of the Far East held the bottle of mineral water but had no intention of drinking it. His attitude turned cold. “A person with a wealthy background like President Lu wouldn’t understand.”

“Oh? It sounds like you didn’t have a good life when you were young?” Lu Yuan put one hand on the armrest of the sofa and the other hand on the can of beer. He looked very concerned about him. “Did your family not care about you?”

“My parents divorced in the early years and went their separate ways. I grew up with my grandmother. Later, my grandmother passed away, and I was depressed for a while. It wasn’t until I joined the KGB by chance that I had the opportunity I have now.” The Ace of the Far East stretched his long legs lazily, “Actually, I’m a diplomat now. I will also slowly withdraw from the KGB.”

“Why? Is there any difference between the diplomats of the Soviet Union and the KGB?” Lu Yuan mocked him a little.

“Of course there’s a difference.” The Ace of the Far East smiled faintly. “Before my identity was exposed, I was a KGB agent. After my identity was exposed, I’m only a diplomat.”

“I’m also very curious. Logically speaking, how could the KGB be so careless?” Lu Yuan tilted his head and sized him up with a smile.

“Actually, I’m even more curious.” The Ace of the Far East’s gaze became sharp, like a searchlight, as if he wanted to shine a light on who exactly was under Lu Yuan’s skin. “Not to mention ordinary people, even the members of your country’s intelligence agency wouldn’t be able to discover the eavesdropping device I used in such a short period of time. President Lu, however, was able to do it. I wonder if I should doubt President Lu’s identity? Or should I be envious of your country’s detector?”

Lu Yuan laughed loudly. “You can think whatever you want. But as far as detectors are concerned, I have to boast that all the detectors in the world combined aren’t as good as mine.”

The invention of this genius, Lu Jin, had a special effect of turning something rotten into something magical.

He could make a small modification to the detectors with common functions sold on the market, and the effect would be magnified exponentially.

However, no matter how talented he was, he was still in the field of technology.

The sense of secrecy in his mind was almost negligible.

For so many years, if it weren’t for Lu Yuan by his side helping him to find flaws, he would have been caught by He Chengjian countless times.

The Ace of the Far East was curious, and couldn’t help but ask, “It’s that powerful? I wonder if I have the honor to see your magical detector with my own eyes?”

Chief Lu smiled amiably, but he rejected his request. “No, you don’t have the honor.”

The Ace of the Far East also knew that he wouldn’t easily take it out, but he was unwilling to not ask.

He shrugged. “It’s fine if President Lu isn’t willing. I never force people.”

He stood up leisurely. “I’ll go back and make the security plan. Then, how do I send it to Chief Lu?”

Lu Yuan gave his email address. “Send it to this email.”

The Ace of the Far East took down his email address and said coldly, “Then I’ll take my leave first. As for Miss Gu, I hope President Lu can put in a few good words for me. I really want to pursue her.”

“You want to pursue our Nianzhi?” Lu Yuan chuckled. “Forgive me for being presumptuous, but how old are you, Mr. Peter? Don’t you have a girlfriend?”

“I just turned 30 this year.” The Ace of the Far East’s expression was a little awkward. “I don’t have a girlfriend now. I’ve already broken up with my ex-girlfriend.”

Lu Yuan pulled a long face. “You’re already 30 years old, and you still don’t have a girlfriend. How dare you pursue our Nianzhi? Our Nianzhi is only 20 years old. Don’t you think you’re too old for her?”

This stab pierced his heart.

The Ace of the Far East’s heart was crushed.

Lu Yuan didn’t let him off the hook and continued to snort coldly. “… Are all of you Soviets so rude? You don’t even care if the girl is taken or not?”

“Huh? Miss Gu has a boyfriend?” The Ace of the Far East snapped back to reality. His gaze focused and he glanced in the direction of Gu Nianzhi’s room. “She’s injured so badly, and her boyfriend doesn’t come to see her? ! You guys agreed to let Miss Gu be with such a coward? !”

Lu Yuan’s face darkened as he stood up abruptly. “Why is she injured so badly? ! Don’t try to be nice when you’ve taken advantage of her!”

The Ace of the Far East’s face immediately darkened, and his cold, handsome face exuded a bone-chilling chill.

The pretense of harmony between the two was gone, and it was as if they were about to draw their guns at each other in the next second.

However, both of them were people with strong self-control, so they wouldn’t lose control of their emotions.

Therefore, the two of them just glared at each other and eventually parted on bad terms.

After the Ace of the Far East left, Lu Yuan returned to the guest room where Gu Nianzhi was recovering from her injuries. He sat down at the dining table, picked up his chopsticks, and continued eating. He said resentfully, “I’m really overwhelmed from anger.”

Lu Jin turned around in surprise and said, “There’s still someone who can anger you? ! Who is it? If he’s so powerful, I have to go and learn from them.”

Gu Nianzhi: “…”

Lu Yuan pretended not to hear him and continued to eat as if he was trying to swallow all his emotions and digest them without revealing them.

Lu Jin fed Gu Nianzhi the last mouthful of porridge and said with a smile, “Looks like it’s that Mr. Peter. He’s really amazing. He can go to Heaven.”

Gu Nianzhi: “…”

Seeing that Lu Yuan was feeling a little down, Gu Nianzhi quickly tried to smooth things over. “Dad, I still want some soup. Can you heat up a bowl for me? I like hot soup. It’s fresher.”

“Okay, okay! I know how to heat up soup!” Lu Jin happily went to the kitchen to heat up the soup for her.

Gu Nianzhi took the opportunity to comfort Lu Yuan. “President Lu, did that Peter make you angry? Don’t be angry. When I recover, I’ll help you fight him. I’m sure he’ll cry and kowtow to you to pour tea and apologize.”

This Peter was too talkative. Gu Nianzhi felt that if she really wanted to teach him a lesson, she would have to wait until she recovered.

Bickering was both a mental and physical task.

Lu Yuan didn’t know whether to laugh or cry. He looked up at Gu Nianzhi and said, “Okay then, I’ll just wait for him to kowtow to me and pour me tea to apologize.”

Gu Nianzhi: “…”

She was just saying so casually, yet he took her seriously.

Perhaps it was because she had comforted him at the right time, but Lu Yuan’s mood gradually improved.

“I appreciate your kindness. Your body is weak now, so you need to take care of your injuries. I’ll wait for you to recover and help me deal with that Peter,” Lu Yuan said half-jokingly. “In the future, tell me what you want to eat, and I’ll cook for you.”

“Thank you, President Lu! Your food is so delicious!” Gu Nianzhi herself was a terrible cook, so she was full of respect for anyone who knew how to cook.

Lu Yuan nodded with a smile.

After dinner, he tidied up the house, glued his beard back on, put on his hat, and resumed his simple disguise. He left the neighborhood where Gu Nianzhi lived and went back to his own home.

..

The Ace of the Far East returned to the Soviet consulate general. He didn’t sleep for the entire night and developed a sophisticated security plan.

From the outside public opinion to the smoke bombs, to the entire neighborhood and the residents of the building, the terms and conditions were all pervasive, and Gu Nianzhi was tightly protected.

Lu Yuan and Lu Jin had a lot of money. Money meant that they had manpower and resources, so the Ace of the Far East’s plan was carried out well.

Secretary Lin, who was beside Lu Yuan, knew where Gu Nianzhi was, but the problem was that no one else knew that she knew.

She was also a tight-lipped person. In order to keep it a secret, according to the Ace of the Far East’s plan, Lu Yuan still sent her to a closed base of the Lu Corporation to be responsible for the development of a new product there.

In addition, He Zhichu was in the base and had no contact with the outside world, so Qin Yaoguang had no way to start and had no clues.

It was as if Gu Nianzhi had disappeared from C City out of thin air, and her whereabouts couldn’t be found at all.

“How could this be?” Qin Yaoguang flew into a rage. “I told you to find someone, but you couldn’t even find him. Our Qin family is paying you such a high salary for nothing!”

Just as Qin Yaoguang was about to increase the number of people she could find, a video suddenly popped up on the internet. It was a foreigner who was seeing a patient at the Qin family’s private hospital. He had spent tens of thousands of yuan to treat a simple cold and had no choice but to transfer to a public hospital.

This foreigner was cursing the Qin family’s private hospital on the internet. He claimed that this hospital only knew how to collect money and that it was a shady place that disregarded human lives!

This accusation was a bit heavy. In addition, the Qin family’s private hospital did consider itself as a prestigious hospital. The fees were indeed very expensive. However, if treating a small cold would cost tens of thousands of medical fees, even a noble wouldn’t be able to afford it.

Therefore, many people who were dissatisfied with the Qin family’s private hospital also voiced their opinions. They quickly formed a trend and became the hot news.

This caused a sharp drop in the number of people who went to the hospital for treatment.

The Qin Corporation’s stock price kept dropping for an entire week. It was obvious that someone was taking the opportunity to crash the market.

Faced with such a serious public image crisis, Qin Yaoguang had no choice but to divert her attention from looking for Gu Nianzhi. She focused all her efforts on the public relations media to save the Qin private hospital’s image and prestige.

She, holding press conferences, and reorganizing the entire hospital system, was busy appearing in all the major media outlets every day. She promised society that “medical ethics should be prioritized”and “medical skills should be used for benevolent means.” She also took the initiative to lower the various fees, and she even sent her best doctors to the countryside to “volunteer” for public welfare. She was extremely busy.

Gu Nianzhi swiped her phone and thinking that it was a good move to find something for her to do, she looked around.

This Ace of the Far East really had something up his sleeve.

Under the heavy protection of such a fail-safe situation, Gu Nianzhi survived more than a month of recuperation unscathed.

There was no one to disturb her, and no one to spy on her. It was just her and Lu Jin living in this penthouse apartment.

Her constitution was special, and she recovered quickly to begin with.

However, this time the injury was too serious, and her internal organs were damaged, so it took her almost a month to slowly recover.

It was almost Christmas. Gu Nianzhi came out of the gym and used the towel on her shoulder to wipe the sweat off her head. She saw the snowflakes floating outside the French window in the living room.

“It’s going to snow.” Gu Nianzhi stood in front of the French window and breathed into the frost. She used her fingers to write on the French window.

She had just finished her rehabilitation exercise, so she wasn’t really thinking. Her eyes were looking at the snowy scenery outside the window, and her fingers just moved subconsciously.

She was so focused that the doorbell behind her rang, and Lu Jin opened the door to let someone in, but she was unaware.

The Ace of the Far East and Lu Yuan walked in one after the other. They saw a tall girl in loose sportswear standing in front of the French window. She was writing on the window.

The Ace of the Far East’s eyes lit up when he saw what Gu Nianzhi had written. He hurried over and said, “You’re writing my name. Are you thinking of me? ! I missed you too.”

Gu Nianzhi was stunned for a moment before she realized that she had written “Huo Shaoheng” again and again on the French window.
