Before he could even finish his words, Lu Ziyang was already massaging his temples and feeling very helpless. “I already know who it is.”
At the same time, a man walked over from not far away.
His figure was tall, slim, and well-built, with perfect proportions like an international model.
He exuded a powerful and noble aura from head to toe.
He was clad in a long coat usually worn by Penalan citizens who held governing positions, which resembled a thin cloak.
Under the coat, he was wearing a Penalan’s Major-General uniform, which was Cerulean. As he walked, it felt like there was wind all around him.
The army officer’s hat on his head made his deep-set facial features appear even more striking.
However, the stern air he gave off made one feel the chills all over.
He was a proper army officer, yet he exuded the aura of a monarch of the dark.
As he walked over, there was a sneer in his aloof eyes and also an iciness that pierced one’s bones. “The way you Chinese people do things makes me look at you in a different light.”
His deep and magnetic voice sounded like it came from an abyss.
Lu Ziyang had learned about this man from Gu Qingjiu’s information early on.
Moreover, he was also aware of this person’s alter-identity.
“Penalan’s youngest major-general and also the youngest duke in Penalan, Helian Niancheng. Have you been well, Instructor Helian?”
Helian Niancheng had held the title of the Chief Instructor in this country for half a year, at the very least.
Next to them, the shocked Zong Wenxuan stood with his mouth hanging open after hearing of this person’s impressive background.
Damn, wasn’t this person Gu Qingjiu’s boyfriend?
Penalan’s youngest major-general. Furthermore, he’s also a duke…
In Penalan.
Oh, my god!
Elder Gong, who was standing beside them, revealed a rare smile on his face. “Back then, when I met you, you were only sixteen or seventeen. Now you’ve accomplished your goal.”
“You’re too polite.”
Helian Niancheng spoke to Elder Gong with some respect. But after he had said this, he cast a disdainful glance at Lu Ziyang before walking into the ward.
Even someone who was used to handling difficult situations with higher-ups had to admit…
That Helian Niancheng’s aura was superior even to those ordinary people in power.
To be able to climb to his position in a place like Penalan, Helian Niancheng had indeed inherited his grandfather’s intelligence and fierceness.
No wonder even after doing something like that, he managed to return to Penalan unscathed, to reclaim the glory that originally belonged to him.
“Boss, is he really that impressive character from Penalan?”
Zong Wenxuan had yet to recover from his state of shock.
Lu Ziyang rolled his eyes. “Do you think anyone can just treat us impolitely like that?”
Zong Wenxuan was speechless.
Having been scolded by three different sets of people, their department sure suffered a lost prestige.
But Lu Ziyang had always been the one standing at the foremost when someone was scolding them.
Their top boss was supposed to be the one responsible for this, but Lu Ziyang was the one who went on the mission with Gu Qingjiu.
Zong Wenxuan sympathized with Lu Ziyang for three seconds in his heart.
Even Elder Gong specially came here to look for them. One could only imagine the great impact of this matter that involved Gu Qingjiu.
Not for any other reason, but because Gu Qingjiu was receiving a lot of attention in the world of shooting right now.
The pressure mostly came from the shooting world. After all, it was indeed not easy for a genius like Gu Qingjiu to emerge.
Usually, everyone went about things carefully. In a certain sense, they hadn’t considered sufficiently with regards to this mission.
