Bulwark of Light

Chapter 174 Reporters

"The parlor has an extraordinary aura..."

Gu Shen, who had been monitoring the audience, suddenly frowned.

"Deep sea, call out the monitoring."

Shen Hai, who has always been connected, suddenly lost his response at this moment, and even lost the response to the private channel call.

Gu Shen is no stranger to this situation.

When he invaded Nanwan Building, it was Chu Ling who helped block the signal.

Before the indirect confrontation with Xiao in the Freedom Auditorium, Gu Shen guessed that Xiao could use the bug of the deep sea to conduct some kind of private link. Gu Shen reacted immediately when the deep sea lost control. He put on his hat and walked quickly from the safe passage. Leaving, came to the second floor of the living room, where the view is the most open, the blazing fire monitors the audience from the chandelier...but no strange spiritual atmosphere was sensed.

Gu Shen observed with naked eyes.

It's just that he didn't see anything unusual——

"Hey Hey hey--"

The private channel rang, and just as Gu Shen went upstairs, the link was restored in less than ten seconds.

"What just happened?"

Lu Nanjin raised her head with a frown, and looked at Gu Shen secretly in the living room on the first floor, and frowned, "The private channel is disconnected?"

"The link in the deep sea is unstable...I don't think it's an accident..." Gu Shen said his thoughts in a low voice, "Even after doing a detailed investigation, the owl may have sneaked into the venue in another way."

"The link was disconnected just now, Xiao Xiao has already made a move?" Lu Nanjin's phoenix eyes narrowed.

"I didn't catch any abnormalities...but I can't rule out this possibility..."

Gu Shen noticed that there was still one person in the private channel who hadn't spoken, so he tentatively asked, "Teacher?"

The old guy, far away from the hustle and bustle of the living room, sat on the back seat of the concert hall with his hands spread out, and slowly opened his eyes after hearing Gu Shen's voice, with a lazy tone, as if waking up from a nap, "Relax …Internet fluctuations, disconnections, issues like that are common. If anything, it’s happening now.”

Nan Jin and Gu Shen looked at each other.

They both chose to remain silent.

If Xiao Xiao has the authority to temporarily second the deep sea...then the private channel is undoubtedly not safe.

"Xiao won't make a move at this time." Zhou Jiren looked at the closed curtain in front of the main hall, and said indifferently: "Nothing has started yet... The main event is at the back."

……

……

"The thing about the collaboration... I think I've made it pretty clear."

On the second floor of the living room, there is a separate elegant room.

Lu Nanzhi sat on the sofa and said seriously: "Mr. Chen, I do need Nanwan's help, but it must be based on the premise of equality and mutual respect."

"Of course." Chen San said softly, "As long as you are really opposed...then Nanwan will fully help you to complete the follow-up election."

Speeches on election day are extremely risky.

Lu Nanzhi knew that once he opened his mouth, he would have no choice but to turn back. Standing on the opposite side with Zhao Xilai would have to bear a huge risk... The opponent has countless cards in his hands and is powerful. If it were not for the constraints of the Federation, he would have airborne Chen San to support the Nanwan faction. Most of the balance has long since ceased to exist, and now if he wants to wrestle with Zhao Xilai, he must resort to external forces.

"Money, resources, manpower... Once we become allies, Nanwan will do our best." Chen San said sincerely: "About the case ten years ago... Actually, I have heard about it for a long time. The banner is yours in the first place. From any point of view, getting back the lost property is a legitimate thing."

This is a heartwarming statement.

It's a pity that these words... If I hadn't opposed the Awakening Act, I would never have heard it from Chen San.

Lu Nanzhi said softly: "As for Huaqi, and the past... I really want to pursue it, but it may be different from what you imagined. I don't have that much hatred for Zhao."

"... Oh?" ​​Chen San was a little surprised.

"Father's greatest wish and the direction of his efforts all the time is to hope that Huaqi can gather people with lofty ideals and elite pioneers in the metropolitan area to promote the progress of this era and make a contribution to mankind..."

"Perhaps you think that all I did was to take revenge on Zhao Xilai..."

Lu Nanzhi said softly, "But it's actually not. I just have a different standpoint, so we parted ways. It's not intentional revenge, or bearing humiliation and waiting for today's counterattack."

"After my father died back then, there was no more suitable successor than him. And Huaqi has indeed grown and grown in his hands, standing on the top of the world. From this point of view, I still owe him a thank you .”

Chen San had a complicated expression.

Even though he had done a lot of homework beforehand, he still felt that he had underestimated the woman in front of him...

"About the Lion Lane case..." Chen San whispered, "I heard some rumors..."

"The murderer of the Lion Lane murder has not been found yet." Lu Nanzhi said calmly, "For the murderer who killed my father, I have a lot of anger and hatred in my heart. I know what the rumors say... They all think that Zhao Xilai did it, right?"

Chen San remained silent.

Before Lu Cheng was alive, he and Zhao Xilai were close friends, and they had a very good friendship. In the board of directors of Huazhi Building, Zhao Xilai also held the largest proportion of shares besides Lu Cheng, so after the Lion Lane massacre... he became the "Flower Banner" as a matter of course. Owner.

"I was also so angry that I wanted to find Zhao Xilai and kill him."

Lu Nanzhi lowered her eyelids, "Because...everyone wants him to be the murderer, and I hope so too."

Chen San did not expect that the word "get rid of it" would appear in Lu Nanzhi's mouth... But he quickly adjusted back, the other party was not an ordinary woman, and her behavior was closer to that of a man.

"So there was this marriage... The word marriage has no meaning to me. At that time, I just rushed to get close to Zhao Xilai, and then got rid of him. I chose the marriage." Lu Nanzhi said lightly: "It's very Everyone objected to the baby kiss we made when we were young, except Mrs. Zhao, because they had no reason to object."

Chen San looked strange.

Indeed... Who can refuse a woman like Lu Nanzhi?
On the other hand, I have to say that Zhao Qi is just a lump of mud that can't support the wall, stinky shit.

So far, Chen San is unwilling to accept that his wife and Zhao Qi are a couple in name... These two people are really, really not a good match.

"If Zhao Xilai refuses this marriage, then there is no need to wait for the investigation of the real culprit in Lion Lane. No matter what the truth is, I will definitely bite him to death at that time, look for him, and try to kill him." Lu Nanzhi said softly. Muttering, "But after entering Huaqi...the pain begins, because if you really want to pursue the truth, you will find..."

"The truth... is often different from what everyone thinks..."

Chen San knew that after marrying the Zhao family, the name of "Madame" gradually became popular in the capital... If Zhao Xilai is really the envoy of Lion Lane, if he has exposed a little bit in the past ten years, with Lu Nanzhi's determination , wrist, will never develop into today's situation.

It can only be said that we have gotten along with each other in the past ten years.

Lu Nanzhi had to accept a truth... The biggest beneficiary of Lion Lane was not the main culprit.

……

……

While everyone was attracting attention on the dance floor, someone tiptoed up to the second floor.

Jiang Wan was carrying the gown, she sneaked out of the noisy living room, and went to the second floor, but wearing this grand gown was really troublesome... she couldn't move freely.

The pendant on her chest is inlaid with a small micro-hole camera, which is recording the current scene in real time.

Although he was born in a celebrity family at the top of the metropolis.

But she has a heart that is rebellious and yearns for freedom... She hides her name and changes her identity, and is willing to be an unknown little reporter in Dadu Evening News.

The last survey of the old city had an accident, and nothing happened...

But this time the opportunity came again... Those colleagues in the Evening News had no invitations, so they could only stop people from interviewing outside the auditorium, trying to find some news.

But I am different.

Who would have thought that there is a princess who can receive invitations to the Freedom Ball in the journalistic profession with a meager salary of [-]?
After entering the living room, Jiang Wan's eyes fixed on Zhao Qi, but unlike those women who wanted to climb the dragon and become rich, she caught the strangeness with her keen professional sense... This person who is the focus of the evening newspaper every year is the finale The dandy who appeared on the stage only exchanged a few casual greetings with an acquaintance before leaving the living room in a hurry.

And it looks a little uneasy?

Where is this going?
Jiang Wan followed all the way to the second floor, and found that Zhao Qi seemed to be hovering in front of a door, hesitating.

……

……

The conversation is coming to an end.

Chen San stood up and shook hands with his wife.

"Today's conversation...let's end here, and I hope to have a pleasant cooperation in the future."

Madam nodded and said casually: "Happy cooperation... Say hello to Ye Ningqiu for me."

If it wasn't for the appointment at the Liberty Auditorium, Ye Ningqiu was willing to give up the campaign and take a gamble, then there would be no surprise attack effect today, and there would be no in-depth discussion on the progress of the two parties sitting down and calming down.

Chen San smiled and wanted to speak, but he suddenly looked in the direction of the door.

There are slight footsteps outside the door——

"Who?"

He frowned.

Someone knocked slowly on the door.

"It's me, Zhao Qi."

Hearing Zhao Qi's voice, Chen Sancai relaxed slightly.

In a sense... Zhao Qi is his partner.

For Chen San, Zhao Qi is a character that must be wooed and befriended. The more tense Nan Wan is with Hua Zhi, the more he has to maintain a good relationship with Zhao Qi...

So when he learned that Zhao Qi wanted to do some business, Chen San immediately sent his nephew to contact him.

Nanwan struggles against Huazhi... The only good news is that Huazhi's future successor is a piece of shit.

The premise is that Zhao Xilai did not amend the will——

Now that the will was withdrawn, many people in Nanwan sighed, and Chen San was no exception.

Chen San got up to open the door, was slightly startled when he saw Zhao Qi, and asked with concern: "Master Zhao...why is your face a little swollen?"

"It's okay, I slept for a long time, edema..."

Zhao Qi laughed, he had always had a good impression of Chen San, because Nanwan gave him a lot of help during some difficult times when his economy was not good and his financial resources were cut off... It was really hard for him to dislike this congressman .

"I want to have a chat with...her."

Zhao Qi stood at the door and didn't go in. Up to now, he still couldn't call out Lu Nanzhi's name.

Calling her by her full name...it seems too raw.

And those who are more intimate... such as his wife, Nan Zhi, this is not a title he deserves to call at all.

Chen San patted Mr. Zhao on the shoulder, gave him a friendly smile, and stepped aside to get out of the way.
