On the other end of the phone, Gan Tang saved Gan Yuan’s new number in his smartwatch and deleted the call history. He placed the watch on the table and turned to see Huangfu Jue pushing the door open. The little guy immediately closed his eyes and pretended to sleep.
Seeing the little guy huddled up and stretching his arms in sleep, Huangfu Jue just shook his head slightly. He carefully extended his large hand to straighten the boy’s body, moved gently to tuck him in, and then he turned off the light and retreated back into the living room.
After closing the bedroom door tightly, fearing to disturb the little guy’s sleep, he led Will out to the terrace before he began to speak.
"For this visit to F Country, I’ll lead the team myself. You arrange it," he said.
Will hesitated a bit. "But... You weren’t planning to get involved in this, were you?"
For the sake of national interest, Huangfu Jue had agreed to F Country’s conditions and both countries were to engage in in-depth cooperation.
He usually only made decisions on such matters, while the detailed negotiations were left to the relevant staff. After all, these were minor affairs.
This time, having suddenly changed his mind, Will was well aware of the reason and thus didn’t quite agree with Huangfu Jue’s decision.
Currently, Moses was in F Country, and what kind of situation it would create if the two met was something Will couldn’t predict at all.
After all, it wasn’t his country, and in that place, Moses was certainly not a wanted criminal.
"I’ve changed my mind!" Huangfu Jue turned around, "Not only that, but... I also want to get involved in this F Country election."
Will frowned. "What do you mean?"
"If our preferred candidate becomes President, it would be of great significance to our country."
The two countries were neighbors, and their relationship had always been delicate. If the new President elected by the other side maintained a good relationship with A Country, it would naturally be very beneficial to A Country.
This point, Will did not deny.
"But..." As his head of security, Will had to consider not only these issues but also his safety. "Even so, there is no need for you to go in person."
He was the "General," and it would suffice to strategize from here; there was no need to personally charge into battle.
Huangfu Jue showed an inscrutable smile. "Because I want to personally choose the best partner for cooperation."
Talk of choosing a partner for cooperation, wasn’t it all for Miss Gan Yuan?
Will sighed helplessly, knowing it was pointless to argue, and simply nodded in agreement.
"I’ll make the arrangements."
"Wait!" Huangfu Jue’s gaze fell on his face. "What happened to your mouth?"
"Ah..." Will licked his already scabbed lips and lowered his eyelashes, "I... I accidentally hit it."
Having a woman bite his lip and then talk about it would be enough to die laughing if his boss heard it.
Huangfu Jue’s pupils narrowed as his gaze briefly swept over Will’s slightly bent fingers.
"You’ve never been good at lying."
Will looked up at him. "Can we... not talk about it?"
Originally, Huangfu Jue had asked casually, but seeing Will’s awkward reaction sparked his curiosity.
"Sir!" Will’s brow furrowed, his face full of difficulty. "This... this is my personal matter."
"Personal matter?" Huangfu Jue crossed his arms. "Just like the injury you got from fighting with Jessica before, that’s also considered a personal matter?"
"This..." Will opened his mouth, hesitated for a long time, and then finally stuttered, "It was... It was that damn girl... who bit me!"
Huangfu Jue’s eyebrows rose as he looked at his assistant colonel with a flushed face and finally couldn’t help but burst into laughter.
