58: An unexpected phone call sets the stage for a good show?
Listening Wind Teahouse.
Chen Yang was surprised. It was related to the Stone Gambling Convention again?
Black Tiger nodded.
"Chang Xiaotian's superior is named Mai Guoze."
"After interrogation, he confessed an important lead."
"This matter involves a wide scope."
"It might involve a major figure in Jiangnan Province."
"According to reliable sources, this major figure will also attend the Stone Gambling Convention."
"Out of careful consideration."
"I must personally make a trip to Caiyun City."
Chen Yang sighed with emotion.
Recently, every single matter around him seemed to focus on Caiyun City.
This was not a good sign.
He felt.
An invisible dark curtain was descending.
It was suffocating!
"Brother Hu, this mission is not simple!"
"You must be careful!"
Black Tiger nodded.
He glanced at Chen Yang again.
"I heard... you plan to go too?"
Chen Yang gave a bitter smile.
"Before you, two people had already invited me to Caiyun City."
"One is Liu Sisi."
"She is going to attend the opening ceremony as a special guest performer."
"Since I am her personal bodyguard, I naturally need to go."
"The other is Lilac."
"She represents the Treasure Pavilion and invited me to go with her."
"To act as her consultant and try to buy more rough stones of excellent quality."
Chen Yang spread his hands.
"Since I have to go anyway, I accepted."
"And we already agreed to travel together to look out for each other."
Black Tiger wore a mischievous smile.
"You brat, you're playing with fire!"
"Two beauties?"
"When the time comes, let's see how you manage both?"
Chen Yang rubbed his temples.
"This... it's not that terrifying, is it?"
Black Tiger stopped joking.
"Your arrangement like this."
"It also helps conceal your identity."
"You can just hide on the side, observe secretly, and assist me in completing the mission."
"No problem, right?"
Chen Yang shrugged.
"Should... perhaps... maybe... alright!"
Black Tiger ignored his exaggerated, cheeky expression.
A friendly reminder.
"Before you leave, remember to go to the base to collect your firearm."
"Some special equipment will be very helpful for your safety and actions."
Chen Yang felt a wave of excitement.
A gun what man doesn't like something like that?
Wait!
Women like them too.
Having finished speaking, Black Tiger stood up to leave.
Chen Yang called out to him.
"Brother Hu, I'm hosting a housewarming party the day after tomorrow, are you free?"
Black Tiger paused, then laughed:
"You brat, not bad, you even bought a house!"
"Where is it?"
Chen Yang was slightly smug.
"Daming Lake Lakeside, Villa Area, Villa No. 8."
Black Tiger was startled!
"A villa? And by the Daming Lake Lakeside?"
"That wasn't cheap, was it?"
Suddenly.
Black Tiger looked at Chen Yang with renewed respect!
He couldn't help but give a thumbs up.
"You're awesome!"
"I wasn't planning on going originally."
"Now, I really want to see it for myself."
His tone suddenly became serious.
"Remember, my external identity is the Sales Manager of the Jiangcheng Rubber Factory."
"My name is Li Heihu."
"Call me Brother Hu or Manager Li from now on."
Chen Yang was greatly surprised.
The last time he went to the mysterious base and saw the Jiangcheng Rubber Factory.
He thought it was quite interesting.
This factory, used as a cover identity, was quite convincing.
He hadn't expected.
That he was really an employee of the factory!
He even took the title of Sales Manager.
The disguise work was very thorough.
Black Tiger walked out of the private room, and Chen Yang followed him.
"Brother Hu, is Wang Xiaoya free the day after tomorrow?"
Black Tiger turned his head and looked at him in surprise.
"Why are you asking about her?"
Chen Yang's expression was a little unnatural.
"The more people, the merrier. If she's not busy, why don't you... bring her along!"
Black Tiger asked knowingly.
"Are you two... close?"
"If I remember correctly, you've only met once, right?"
Chen Yang said shamelessly:
"Hehe!"
"Once a stranger, twice an acquaintance, three or four times... old friends!"
Black Tiger gave him a deep look and said nothing.
He turned and left.
Chen Yang felt a little awkward under his gaze.
What kind of look was that?
Was he guarding against a thief?
Meanwhile, Black Tiger was muttering internally.
This brat.
He was 100% a troublemaker!
With so many beauties around him, he was eating from the bowl while eyeing the pot.
Wang Xiaoya.
She was the belle of Group Three!
A good cabbage shouldn't be ruined by him!
Uh
That girl Xiaoya.
She shouldn't fall for him, right?
... When Chen Yang returned to Liu Sisi's villa.
She was already asleep.
In the bedroom.
Chen Yang held several documents and looked them over repeatedly.
His eyes were exceptionally bright.
He really wanted to tell his parents.
Their son had finally achieved something.
He had become a glorious soldier!
And a Major officer!
He figured... hearing this news, his parents would definitely be very happy.
Especially his father.
He would certainly thank the ancestors for their blessing and console the spirits of his forefathers.
Since childhood.
Chen Yang had always wanted to be someone who made his parents proud.
His father always said.
He hoped that when he grew up, he could bring honor to his ancestors and glory to the family name.
Did this count as... helping him achieve his wish?
Unfortunately.
Joining the Military Intelligence Bureau, Special Operations Department.
Was top secret.
He couldn't tell anyone!
Especially those close to him.
The more they knew, the more dangerous it would be for them.
Not knowing.
Was actually the best protection for them.
"Sigh..."
Chen Yang let out a long sigh.
With a thought.
He put all the documents, military uniform, and insignia into his Portable Space.
He composed himself, just about to sleep.
An unknown call suddenly came in.
"Hello, who is this?"
A hearty male voice rang out on the other side.
"Is this Chen Yang?"
"Old classmate, hello! I am Xue Song."
Chen Yang started searching his memory.
Who was Xue Song?
Soon.
He remembered.
Among his high school classmates, there seemed to be one with that name.
"Oh... hello... are you Xue Song from Class 2, Grade 3, Qianshan High School?"
Xue Song burst into laughter.
"Yes, yes, that's me."
"It's been so many years since graduation, it's rare that an old classmate still remembers me."
Chen Yang felt awkward.
Who the hell remembers you?
We had no relationship to begin with, and haven't contacted each other in ages.
Only a ghost would remember!
Speaking of which... after so many years without contact, why the sudden call?
What was the meaning of this?
"Old classmate, did you call... because you need something?"
Xue Song chuckled:
"Long time no see, I missed you very much!"
"There happens to be a class reunion tomorrow morning, so I called to invite you to attend."
"The address is: Shanhai Grand Hotel, 9th Floor, Juyi Hall."
Chen Yang instantly realized.
This class reunion was the one Liu Changhe had mentioned.
But.
He hadn't expected someone to specifically notify him.
Had the sun risen from the west?
"Thank you! Classmate Xue."
"Why is this class reunion so enthusiastic, even calling me personally to invite me?"
"I didn't receive a call for the previous ones!"
Xue Song laughed heartily.
"Don't worry, this class reunion has a wealthy sponsor."
"You don't have to worry about any of the expenses."
"You just need to show up."
"Because of the sponsor, the number of invitations this time is a bit higher than usual."
"Many classmates who rarely gather will take the time to attend."
"You must come!"
Chen Yang's eyes darted, and he agreed.
"Alright!"
"I will definitely be there on time."
Xue Song breathed a huge sigh of relief.
"That's great, see you tomorrow."
Chen Yang sneered.
Something unusual must mean trouble!
A class reunion?
He didn't need to think; it was definitely going to be exciting!
The current him.
Was no longer the him of the past.
He definitely had to give his classmates a big surprise!
