Chapter 429 Junior high school classmates

"Ha, thank you, thank you for your misplaced affection." Zhong Shengli twisted Suzuki Kaori's arm around her and dragged her to the shop's large glass window, saying, "Look, isn't she pretty? Miss Suzuki Kaori, you're a million miles below the girl in my heart." Zhong Shengli knew how to hit people's hearts.

When Suzuki Kaori saw her grotesque reflection in the mirror, she couldn't help but scream, "Ah! No, no, this isn't me!"

Having met Song Tingnan, Zhong Shengli didn't want to waste a single second of his time. If he didn't leave now, when would he?

"Song Tingnan, do you think he likes you? You're just like me, my substitute. If you've got the guts, don't run away. I won't let you go. Just you wait and see!" Seeing that Zhong Shengli had already gotten into the car and she couldn't catch up, Suzuki Kaori could only utter these harsh words again.

"Tch, a stand-in? Who's standing in whose place? Do you really think I'm afraid of you?" Song Tingnan was speechless. With Suzuki Kaori's brain, she was a brainless paramecium. Besides eating, drinking, and having fun, what kind of way could she come up with to deal with him?

Kidnapping her? Drugging her and having someone defile her? No way they'd try to use those methods on her. After all, Gao Haoran, who's been around the block, has demonstrated all sorts of things to her, and her body has been trained to react to stress.

Finally, there was peace and quiet. Zhong Shengli, who had been fearless in his confrontation with Suzuki Kaori, was a little nervous after getting into the car. He finally managed to start the car, and although he wanted to say something, he couldn't open his mouth.

Song Tingnan couldn't help but ask him curiously, "Zhong Shengli, how did you end up in Japan? And why are you connected to my uncle Zheng Yueqiang?"

"Ahem, I... I'm a soldier now. Actually, before your diplomatic corps arrived in Japan, I received orders to come here first to handle related matters. After General Zheng was placed under surveillance, my mission was to protect him."

"You really went to join the army? Was it you who notified Aunt Xing to come out and see me?"

“Yes, I think you’re right. Relying on your parents is too unambitious. With my skills, joining the army is the best choice.” Zhong Shengli smiled honestly. “Because I met Aunt Xing a few times in Yunxiang County, and because of you, we trusted each other, so the higher-ups transferred me here.”

I was the one who notified Professor Dai about the underground auction, and I also assisted with packing the artifacts, but I always missed you.

Thank goodness, I'm so happy to finally see you. Listen to me, Nan, believe me, don't listen to her nonsense. I'm not familiar with Suzuki Kaori; I only met her a few times because of General Zheng's orders. You know me…”

"Ahem...ahem, Zhong Shengli, right? Thank you for helping us." Zheng Xiangqian interrupted Zhong Shengli. Was this guy trying to confess his feelings to his face?

"No... no need to thank me, Brother Zheng. General Zheng has thought this through carefully. He has arranged everything so that I can return to my country."

"It's just that his health was too poor, and he couldn't hold on any longer, otherwise..." Zhong Shengli choked up when he mentioned Zheng Yueqiang. He knew about Zheng Yueqiang's life and admired him greatly. He sincerely wanted to bring him back to the motherland, rather than bringing back an urn of ashes.

“‘A cup of turbid wine, ten thousand miles from home, I cannot bear the thought of returning home.’ Dad, you have successfully completed your mission. Your son is proud of you and has come to take you home!” Zheng Xiangqian stroked the urn in his arms.

After arriving safely at the airport, Zhong Shengli shamelessly asked for Song Tingnan's address and phone number in Shanghai, which was also the address of Song Yanchu and Yin Xingzi's home.

Then he went to negotiate with the airport in high spirits. No one knows how he managed to do it, but Zheng Xiangqian successfully passed through the airport security check and boarded the return flight while carrying the urn.

As soon as they sat down, Zheng Xiangqian subtly inquired about Zhong Shengli from Song Tingnan.

Song Tingnan told him what she knew, "Big brother, we were junior high school classmates." Zheng Xiangqian didn't believe her, his eyes still fixed on her.
