Outside the door.
Elder Ning and Elder Chen were walking side by side.
The expressions on their faces were vastly different.
As for Elder Ning, the wrinkles on his face were squeezed together. He had just received the news that Little Chu’s pair of dragon and Phoenix Twins had been successfully born. His heart was filled with joy!
Aiyo! That’s great! Their Ning family was finally no longer a one-child family. Furthermore, they had a girl for the first time. Just thinking about it made him feel beautiful!
He turned his head to look at the person beside him. Oh! What was wrong with Elder Chen’s expression… it was simply hard to explain! He could not help but ask, “Why do you look so awful? Did something happen?”
Hearing this, Elder Chen could not help but stop in his tracks. His expression was a little strange.
After a while, he organized his words and said, “Well… I really have something to do here, and it has something to do with you.”
Speaking of which, it was a coincidence. He was about to send someone to invite Elder Ning, but the two of them bumped into each other at the intersection ahead. “How about this, let’s go in and talk about it in detail, okay?”
… Huh?
Hearing this, Elder Ning frowned and feel a little strange. However, this strange feeling was quickly covered up by the joy of seeing the two children. He nodded without much thought, “Sure, let’s go in and talk.”
Thus, the two of them sped up and walked into the house.
As soon as they entered, Elder Ning could not help but ask excitedly, “Where’s my grandson and granddaughter? Where are the two of them?”
Back then, Ning Yiyuan had been hugged and coaxed by him when he was young! He did not know if his skills had become rusty by now. Why not sign up for another class and give him some temporary training?
Elder Ning was still engrossed in his thoughts!
When he looked up, he saw Ning Yiyuan walking out of the birthing room with a sullen face. He immediately became angry. Hey! Tell me, on this great day, you’re a father-to-be, yet you still have a sullen face. What are you planning to do? If he did not know that Little Chu and his mother were safe and sound, he would really think that something had happened to them!
Therefore, between his grandson who had always been doting on him, and his granddaughter whom he had never met before, Elder Ning chose the latter without hesitation!
“Grandfather, come and sit here first.” Before Elder Ning could scold him, Ning Yiyuan took the initiative and pointed at the sofa in the living room. He said meaningfully, “I believe… Elder Chen has a lot to say to us!”
With just this sentence, Elder Chen knew that the negotiation this time was probably more difficult than he had imagined!
He wondered how much Ning Yiyuan knew about their cooperation with Wisdom Cloud Galaxy this time!
It was only now that Elder Ning sensed the subtle and strange atmosphere between the two of them, and his heart inexplicably panicked.
…
A few minutes later, the three of them had just sat down on the sofa, and the tea hads not been served yet!
Elder Chen suddenly stood up and without saying anything, he directly bowed deeply to Elder Ning!
Elder Ning was scared out of his wits! He quickly stood up to help Elder Chen up and said, “What are you doing? We’ve known each other for so many years. Can’t we talk about it properly? Do you have to make such a big scene?”
“Elder Ning… I have to apologize to you. I’m sorry! I’m really sorry!” Elder Chen looked up, his face full of sincerity and apology. “But I have to do what I did today!”
“What did you do?” Hearing that, Elder Ning was confused. “Elder Chen, you know my character. Just say what you want to say!”
Elder Chen pursed his lips and glanced at Ning Yiyuan, who had been playing the role of a sculpture. He pondered for a while and then told the truth about their agreement with Wisdom Cloud Galaxy.
“… that’s what happened now. Wisdom Cloud Galaxy is waiting for our reply.”
After hearing the entire incident, the elation on the old man’s face instantly disappeared completely…
He had never thought that his granddaughter would be targeted by someone when she was still in Little Chu’s stomach. Even worse, by the Wisdom Cloud Galaxy?!
What made him even more unable to accept was that his country’s Federation had actually made Wisdom Cloud Galaxy into a tiger and signed such a treaty!
“I know that this is too unfair to you. It’s understandable that you have grudges and anger.”
Elder Chen sighed lightly and continued, “But looking at the overall situation of the Federation, this is the best choice! If we don’t agree to Wisdom Cloud Galaxy’s treaty, it will very likely lead to a war between the two galaxies. At that time, the ones suffering will still be the ordinary citizens of our Federation!”
“Elder Chen, we’ve all experienced that era of war. Do you really want history to repeat itself?”
“The sacrifices now are for the sake of long-term peace. Don’t worry, our Federation will remember your sacrifices and engrave your dedication!”
Elder Chen was indeed worthy of being the head of the organization department. He spoke in a manner of speech. As a person who played with words, his attainments in this aspect were indeed at the peak of perfection!
After listening to this long paragraph, Elder Ning could not help but lower his head. His eyes were indecipherable…
To be honest, people from their era had a sense of selflessness and dedication in their bones. For the overall situation and for the people, they were even willing to sacrifice their own lives!
Risking life and death, these words had never been an empty slogan. Instead, they were actually implemented in every action of theirs… But now, they were asking him to send his granddaughter away, how could the old man bear to do that?
Seeing that the old man was hesitating, Elder Chen could not help but let out a sigh of relief… At least his persuasion was effective… As long as Elder Ning was on his side, the situation would be much better!
Unfortunately, Ning Yiyuan’s next sentence directly shattered his self-righteousness.
“Elder Chen, I’ll give you a promise now!” Ning Yiyuan straightened his back, and the valiant demeanor of a soldier was instantly revealed. Every word was like a pit in one’s heart, “I will never hand over my children! Don’t even think about it!”
“Not to mention that you haven’t persuaded my grandfather today, even if you did, it wouldn’t make much of a difference to me.”
At this moment, Ning Yiyuan’s gaze was so sharp that no one dared to look him in the eye. The arrogance and domineering aura emanating from him was instantly revealed!
“Don’t forget, the military power in my hands is enough to stir up the entire Federation. If you don’t believe me, we can give it a try!”
Hearing this, Elder Chen’s face instantly turned a few shades paler!
He had never thought that Ning Yiyuan would actually say such a thing!
Before coming here, he had thought that Ning Yiyuan would vehemently oppose him, and might even resist with all his might. However, he had never expected that Ning Yiyuan would actually dare to use the military authority that the Federation had bestowed upon him to threaten them instead!
… Was this fellow crazy?
If such a thing were to happen in ancient times, what was the difference between it and a rebellion?
One had to know that no matter what time it was, the higher-ups would absolutely not accept the existence of such a person!
In other words, the current Ning Yiyuan was like a knife placed on their necks, ready to fall at any moment and behead them!
Who would dare to use such a person?
Was Ning Yiyuan prepared to roast the entire Ning Family on the fire?
Not only Elder Chen, even Mo Yang, Song Qingsong, and the others who were openly eavesdropping could not help but be shocked!
Ning Yiyuan was actually willing to do this for Little Chu and the two children! Who dared to say that he was not a good husband and father?
“Elder Chen, I’ll say one last thing,” Ning Yiyuan said firmly, “If you’re afraid of starting a war with Wisdom Cloud Galaxy, then I’m sorry. The opponent you’re about to face… will be me! Choose one of the two, and you can decide for yourself!”
After saying this, Ning Yiyuan immediately left without giving Elder Chen any time to react.
… F*ck!
So handsome!
After watching the entire discussion, Qin Yue could not help but wave his fist and praise in a low voice.
Even though he was a man, he still felt that Ning Yiyuan was so handsome that he could explode!
After a long silence, Elder Chen finally reacted. He turned to look at Elder Ning and asked with mixed feelings, “Elder Ning, you… aren’t you going to say anything?”
Your grandson is going to rebel, okay?
“Elder Chen,”Elder Ning sighed, “I’m really in a difficult situation, so I can’t care about it, and I don’t want to care about it anymore… what should I do, you guys can do it yourself!”
Looking at Elder Ning’s back, Elder Chen was dumbfounded. He suddenly realized that he was in a difficult situation!
Damn! So… What should he do now?
