427: Finish
"Big Brother, about this matter..."
Just as he was about to answer the leader, ring-ring, ring-ring—the phone in his pocket started ringing!
He pulled out his phone, intending to hang up, but saw that it was Lu Si calling!
"Big Brother, may I take this call?" He looked at the leader beside him and asked.
"Please, go ahead!"
With that, he stood up, walked to the side, and answered Lu Si's call!
He was worried that Lu Si had run into some trouble, which was why he chose to answer!
As the call connected, Lu Si's voice came through the phone!
"Hello, Hubby!"
"What is it, baby?"
"Where are you? Come pick me up and take me home; I'm finished with my work!"
Hearing this, he didn't know what to say, but he wasn't angry. He simply said, "I'm in Kyoto right now, discussing our affairs with the Chief. I'll pick you up in a little while. Just wait for me for a bit, okay?"
"Ah? Did I interrupt you then? You should get back to it. I'm hanging up. Remember to pick me up when you're done; I'll wait for you at home!"
"Mm, okay!"
After saying that, Lu Si took the initiative to hang up the phone!
When he returned to the stone table, the leader and Wang Guodong were chatting!
Seeing him return, they stopped their conversation!
"Handled everything?"
"Yes. Big Brother, I can't give you the mature Controllable Nuclear Fusion Technology for the time being. However, once your nuclear aerospace carrier construction reaches the stage where stable controlled nuclear fusion is required, I will hand the technology over to you!"
Wang Yifan said this because he didn't actually have stable Controllable Nuclear Fusion Technology yet. In the leader's mind, however, he thought Wang Yifan was saying this as a safeguard for himself; he felt Yi Fan was worried his requests wouldn't be taken seriously and was keeping a trump card!
But the leader didn't say anything about it!
"That's fine. You'll have to rely on yourself to find an unclaimed island or continent. Once you find one, we will arrange for people to guide you on how to establish a nation. After the nation is founded, you can transfer your nationalities over. Once the wedding is over, there won't be any problem with changing them back!"
He once again put Wang Yifan's mind at ease!
Wang Yifan was currently extremely important to them!
"Big Brother, I understand!"
"Xiao Fan, is your home in Yang City?"
"Yes, Big Brother!"
"I visited Yang City a few years ago. It's a nice place. The summers are very cool. People say 'Refreshing Yang City,' and that's no lie!"
"Haha, that's certainly true. Big Brother, if you have time in the future, please come to Yang City as a guest. I'll be waiting for you there!"
"Since you put it that way, I'll have to bring your Sister-in-law for a visit!"
"Of course! When the time comes, I'll let you and Sister-in-law taste my cooking!"
"You kid know how to cook?"
"A little!"
Wang Yifan and Wang Guodong stayed at the leader's place for the entire afternoon, until five o'clock!
"Xiao Fan, Old Wang, stay for dinner before you go!"
Hearing this, Wang Yifan felt a bit conflicted. He was supposed to go to Zhang Ruonan's house later to meet her parents. If he ate here, what would happen tonight?
But the opportunity to dine with the Chief was something countless people would beg for and never get. If he refused, he'd probably feel uneasy himself!
What should he do?
After thinking for a moment, he felt he couldn't miss this opportunity. Besides, it was still early; if they ate now, there would still be time. He could go back with Zhang Ruonan a bit later and spend the whole day with her tomorrow!
However, he had to tell her first!
"Big Brother, let me tell my wife first!"
"You kid, you're good in every way, but your love life is just too complicated. Is your wife in Kyoto? Tell her to come over and eat with your Sister-in-law!"
"Big Brother, let's just eat!"
He knew the man was just being polite. If he really went to pick up Zhang Ruonan and Zhao Liying, it would be pushing his luck!
Moreover, if he brought them here, there definitely wouldn't be enough time, since he couldn't use a Charm to fetch them!
If he did that, his secret would be exposed!
"Let's go!"
They then walked into the dining room!
He had dinner at the Chief's place with Wang Guodong. It was a rare occasion to drink some wine with figures like Wang Guodong and the Chief; after all, how could one not drink when dining with such people!
After a few drinks, he became more talkative!
They started dinner at five-thirty and didn't finish until seven in the evening!
When he was about to leave, the leader personally saw him and Wang Guodong to the door!
"Xiao Fan, next month you'd better prepare good wine and food for me and your Sister-in-law!" he said, shaking Wang Yifan's hand!
"Don't worry, Big Brother. When the time comes, I'll let you and Sister-in-law taste my cooking!"
"Old Wang, see Xiao Fan home safely, or I'll have your head!"
"Mission guaranteed to be completed!" With that, he gave the Chief a salute!
After a few simple pleasantries, Wang Yifan and Wang Guodong got into Wang Guodong's private car!
It wasn't until Wang Guodong's car started and drove away from the leader's traditional chinese courtyard residence that the leader and his wife turned to return inside!
As they walked, they chatted about domestic matters!
"Old man, this Wang Yifan is quite good. He's capable and patriotic, though his love life is too complicated!"
"True. Fortunately, he's not the type to abandon people, otherwise I wouldn't have kept him for dinner today. You didn't see it—today, when his wife called, that kid actually told me he had to take the call first!"
"That happened?"
"Yes. But the fact that he can go to such lengths for them already puts him above many others!"
...Meanwhile!
Wang Yifan and Wang Guodong were sitting in the back seat of the car!
"You kid, you really made people see you in a new light today!"
"Big Brother Wang, that's because you were there. I wasn't as scared. If I had met the leader by myself, I would have definitely been shaking with nerves!"
"Hahaha, you sure know how to talk. Now that there's a way to solve the issue with your wives, hurry up and look for a place. We can't help you with that!"
"Big Brother Wang, I understand. I'll handle finding the unclaimed island or continent, but once I find it, I'll need your help, Big Brother Wang!"
"Don't worry about that! The leader has already agreed to your request. And you, keeping a card up your sleeve like that... if the leader didn't think highly of you, you would've been scolded!"
Wang Yifan chatted with Wang Guodong as they drove toward Wang Guodong's home!
At seven-fifty in the evening, they finally arrived at Wang Guodong's house!
However, since he had been drinking tonight, he couldn't drive back himself. Fortunately, Wang Guodong arranged for his driver to take him home!
At eight-thirty-five, the driver dropped him off at the entrance of Ju Jingyi's Linhu Villa before driving away!
As soon as he returned to the Linhu Villa, he immediately flashed into the Lingquan Space!
The next second, Zhang Ruonan and Zhao Liying ran to his side, supporting him by the arms on both sides, fearing he might be drunk and fall!
