Chapter 679: We"re FriendsSince they were going to the court, it was fated that they would not end this meeting on good terms.
Although the deal was broken, Bai Yuquan still put up a smile and escorted Xiao Luo, Su Li, and Shen Qingyan out.
“That son of a b*tch. I will make him pay for this!”
Yu Yasi clenched her teeth as she glared at Xiao Luo"s back. She had wiped herself clean with napkins meticulously, but she was still reeking of alcohol. Her clothes were also drenched in wine that Xiao Luo had poured. As she recalled how she was treated by Xiao Luo, her mind went furious and hysterical.
Bai Yuquan did not express any concern to her nor her words. He just glanced at Yu San and asked, “What was that?”
Yu San bowed and replied, “That man could project his inner power outward. Not even guns and swords could hurt him, let alone bare hands.”
“Oh? He"s so powerful?” Bai Yuquan was surprised. He then went on, “I want you to find out his ident.i.ty as soon as possible. Since he"s such a formidable character, I would want to avoid him as an enemy as much as possible, or recruit him to work for the Bai family. That"ll be nice.”
“Recruit him? Yu Quan, he"s done all that to me, and you still want to recruit him?” Yu Yasi was unhappy about that.
Bai Yuquan patted her head and said, “There"s a common problem with you women. You are too narrow-minded and short-sighted. All it takes for you to hate someone was to receive some unfair treatment. This is also the main reason why there are fewer successful women than men. Those who could make it big are the ones who would not mind the nitty-gritty details. They could also see things in a bigger picture as they could portray the magnificent blueprint in their mind, not just some minuscule benefits that were placed before them.”
“I don"t want to hear your preaching, and I don"t bother to understand them. I just want to be your woman behind the scene. To serve you and bear your children.” Yu Yasi leaned on Bai Yuquan affectionately and acted like a spoiled child.
Bai Yuquan smiled and patted her shoulder again.
At this time, there were a few people in suits appearing at the restaurant that was decorated with Chinese mountain and river paintings. They all looked cold and stern as if nothing could escape their pursuit and sharp eyes.
“Yu San, those seem like the people from the Central Guard Regiment that you had served at before, right?” Bai Yuquan asked, frowning.
Yu San observed them carefully and then confirmed, “Yes, it"s them.”
“What are the people from the Central Guard Regiment doing here? Could it be that the prestigious one of our country is coming here?” Bai Yuquan inquired.
“Since it"s a large-scale activation of the squad, they are probably escorting some key leaders from other countries,” Yu San added.
“Is that so?”
Bai Yuquan looked towards that direction with much interest as he raised his brows.
It did not take too long for a dark-skinned man to walk through the escorted by some white a.s.sistants.
“It"s the president of the Mei nation, Mr. Oba!” Yu Yasi exclaimed, blinking her eyes excitedly. Although she had married to a rich family, it was still very impressive and surreal to see a leader of a country within such close proximity. This had shocked her substantially.
“It"s really President Oba. It seems like our country"s way of ensuring security for foreign leaders isn"t up to the standard. How could they send a mere squad of Central Guard Regiment? What if someone a.s.sa.s.sinated him, wouldn"t that be simple?” Bai Yuquan commented. He thought that if they were to hold a reception for foreign leaders, they should clear up the venue in the first place.
Yu San smiled awkwardly as he was certain of the capability of the Central Guard Regiment. Each member could match up to 10 special forces, and they were genuinely capable. In addition, the Hua nation had a very strict gun law, so a.s.sa.s.sination with hot weapons was almost impossible.
“Er, why would President Oba greet Xiao Luo actively?”
Bai Yuquan was shocked as he saw that President Oba, who was walking towards the lake, confidently left the protected zone by the Central Guard Regiment. He walked straight to Xiao Luo and started chatting with him with a smiley face.
Both Yu San and Yu Yasi looked closely and were in disbelief. It was certain that President Oba was bootlicking Xiao Luo as if he was talking to his superior. Although they could not tell what they were talking about, the respectful att.i.tude from President Oba was very obvious.
What was going on?
How could that as*h*le be acquainted with the president of the Mei nation? How could that be?
Yu Yasi was having mixed emotions at one go as she could not believe what she had seen.
As for Su Li and Shen Qingyan, they both were caught off guard completely. They stared at President Oba shaking Xiao Luo"s hand enthusiastically as if they were close friends who had not met for a long time.
“Mr. Oba, aren"t you too enthusiastic?”
Xiao Luo frowned and was speechless. He did not expect to meet this dude here. Anyway, he had no issue with that, but this dude had to come over and chat after seeing him. G.o.d knows if he was high on some drugs. He was overly enthusiastic with him. People might believe that they were close friends, but were unaware of the troubles Xiao Luo had caused in the Mei nation. Even until now, the citizens of Mei nation around the country were protesting to stand up against the ruling of the federal government.
“I have to. We"re good pals after all.”
President Oba even gave Xiao Luo a hug after shaking his hand. He was really overly enthusiastic.
Xiao Luo was extremely awkward, and, finally could not hold it, he asked, “Oba, are you high?”
He could not be bothered to beat around the bush with this dude and definitely could not stand him staring like a lover.
Both Su Li and Shen Qingyan were dumbfounded as Xiao Luo actually dared to ask if the president of the Mei nation if he was high on drugs. Wasn"t…wasn"t this too arrogant? He was the president of a country after all. He was the president of the Mei nation to be exact. Wouldn"t he offend him by asking such a rude question?
However, what made them even more shocked was that President Oba was not angry at all. In fact, his smile widened.
“I am not high. I am not high. I have come to Hua nation to clear up some national debt. To be honest, I am appreciating your country"s Xi more and more. I will become very good friends with him and so are the countries. Hua and Mei nations would become allies with a mutual, sincere connection.” Oba was smiling brightly.
Clear up some national debt?
No wonder he was in high spirits. He had taken some advantages already.
Xiao Luo could not figure out why, but this was a decision made by the higher-ups, so it was not his concern. He joked, “It"s great that you have gained something. I"ll visit the Mei nation when I have the time. You better treat me well.”
Upon hearing that, Oba"s face changed suddenly, and he said in a terrified tone, “Xiao, I think you should visit Ri nation. The women there are experts at serving men. E nation was also pretty good. There are way more women than men. Fa nation"s pretty romantic. All these countries deserved you to pay a trip to. Trust me. I won"t disappoint you.”
“But I like Mei nation. I like its freedom of speech and, more so, Mei dollars,” Xiao Luo teased Oba.
President Oba could not get any more awkward with that and frowned. “Xiao, don"t be like this. Aren"t we friends?”
“That"s why I should visit you more often.” Xiao Luo chuckled.
