Chapter 2297: Pay The Price For Your Contempt
Translator: Henyee Translations Editor: Henyee Translations
The leader of the new regime was shocked by the exercises launched by the Chinese side. When the negotiator from the old regime arrived at the venue, he found it unbelievable that he did not see the Chinese amba.s.sador.
“Gone? He’s really gone? Are you kidding me? Did the Chinese amba.s.sador really leave?
“How can that be? Didn’t I tell you I’d be here? Why the h.e.l.l did he leave?” The negotiator from the old regime stared at the others. He expressed his confusion in one breath in a tone of utter incomprehension.
The negotiator sent by the new regime thought of the potential trouble that would follow. His face darkened, and his tone was not polite at all. “Because of your negligence, the Chinese amba.s.sador was disappointed, so he had good reason to leave. After all, the agreed time was seven o’clock. And you’re 20 minutes late.”
The att.i.tude of the negotiator from the new regime made the negotiator from the old regime pull a long face. “I said that there was an emergency that needed to be dealt with at the last minute and I would arrive at 7:20! If we were negligent, we wouldn’t have called to explain!”
!!
His face was ashen as if he had been offended. The more he spoke, the angrier he became. “A few years ago, the Chinese amba.s.sador negotiated with our diplomats and waited for nearly an hour without leaving the venue. He went to the Western countries and retreated step by step.
“We had already called to apologize and explain. Heh, are you still going to tell me that the Chinese amba.s.sador left in disappointment just because I was 20 minutes late? Do you think I’ll believe you?”
A country that had regressed at every turn in diplomacy had walked away from a negotiation that could solve everything with a single nod?
His words were full of contempt for the Chinese, and there was also an inexplicable sense of superior arrogance. He was also full of contempt for the amba.s.sador of the new regime.
Such a contemptuous att.i.tude made the negotiator from the new regime furious. “Are you saying that we deliberately let the Chinese amba.s.sador leave and made the Chinese hold prejudice against you? If even we don’t believe your excuse, will the Chinese amba.s.sador believe it?
“Last night, the Chinese amba.s.sador very clearly told the deputy commander of the 2nd Special Zone that he would only wait until seven o’clock. If the negotiator of any party did not appear at seven o’clock, he would leave immediately. Just now, the new regime contacted Commander Relira and asked him if he remembered the time wrongly.”
The two sides were not on good terms to begin with. Now that Qin Xiu was not around, there was no more room for formalities between the two.
The negotiator of the new regime had received instructions from the higher-ups. His words were sharp and merciless as he directly accused the old regime. “A negotiation that was certain to succeed and could make the Chinese temporarily retreat has failed because of your breach of trust. Please go back and tell Commander Relira that there’s no way to end this war for the time being! We also have no way to reach a common agreement!”
The negotiator from the allied forces watched calmly as the new and old governments clashed again. When the two sides stopped, he said coldly, “The two of you should return as soon as possible. Once the Northland National Armed Forces make a counterattack, it won’t be something that you can resolve with words! Once the Northland finds out, do you think there’ll still be time for you to blame each other? Is there any point in your argument now?”
The negotiator from the old regime stood up. A shadow crossed his eyes, and he gave a small humph before quickly leaving.
The Chinese amba.s.sador actually left! In that case, he shouldn’t blame them for being rude!
The negotiator from the old regime contacted Commander Relira in the car and reported the situation here.
