Jun Zeye frowned and glanced at her. “I’m worried about letting you go alone. It’s not safe. Let me accompany you.”
Usually, his cold and steely tone would deter anyone around him from rejecting him.
Mu Xiaoxiao shook her head. No one could move her when she was in a stubborn mood.
“No, I want to go alone. Ah Jie, can you understand how I feel? I cannot let Yin Shaojie become angry again, so I cannot bring you there or he’ll be mad if he sees you.”
Jun Zeye looked at her with a deep gaze. She was a girl in her teens. How could he leave her alone, especially when she was going to a foreign country?
However, he knew that even thunder could not shake her when she was in a stubborn mood.
“Are you sure you want to go alone?” he asked again.
“Yes, I have to go alone. Relax, Ah Ze, I will take care of myself,” Mu Xiaoxiao said apologetically. She knew that he was worried about her safety and she thus kept reassuring him that she would be fine.
Helpless, Jun Zeye could only agree but he also made all the preparations for her. “I will arrange for someone to bring you around when you get off the plane. They will protect you and will also be responsible for bringing you to Yin Shaojie. Follow the person, okay?”
“Okay.” Mu Xiaoxiao nodded obediently and stepped forward to hug him.
“Thank you, Ah Ze.”
She would not know what to do without him.
Jun Zeye’s large palm rested on her back and patted her gently. “I wish you a smooth journey.”
The corner of Mu Xiaoxiao’s lips curved into a smile. “Mm.”
She would definitely succeed!
They waited for a while until it was time to board the plane. Mu Xiaoxiao did not look back as she entered the departure gate.
Jun Zeye stood at his spot and watched as her figure slowly disappeared into the distance before looking away.
He made a call to arrange for someone to meet Mu Xiaoxiao in Country R.
Before he could put his phone away he received a call.
It was from Ning Ruyan.
“Hey,” Jun Zeye said mildly.
On the other side of the phone, Ning Ruyan was not as calm as he was. His voice was raised as he asked in disbelief, “Zeye, are you out of your mind?! You actually mobilized the intelligence unit? Do you know the intelligence unit is…”
The unit consisted of intelligence members their country had posted all over the world. it was their country’s most secret department!
Jun Zeye was still calm. “I know. Is there a problem?”
Ning Ruyan exhaled coldly. “Is there a problem? My goodness, what do you think the problem is? Someone will report that you’ve mobilized the intelligence unit to him soon. You’d better think of a good explanation!”
He did not wait for Jun Zeye to reply before continuing, “Zeye, how many more times are you going to make exceptions for Mu Xiaoxiao? Mobilizing the intelligence unit for her is not like you at all! You’ve never used public resources for private gain.”
“Power in the hand is meant to be used,” Jun Zeye said.
Why chase after power if one wasn’t going to use it?
Ning Ruyan came from a political background and he should know the advantages of power best.
It was just that there was a world of difference between the power he held compared to the power Jun Zeye held.
Ning Ruyan frowned and dropped the matter. What more could he say if Jun Zeye were willing to use his power for Mu Xiaoxiao?
