Seeing that the situation was not good, Zhang Beixing quickly pulled Zhang Yingying to get off the bus halfway, insisting that he would walk over by himself in a while.

Xiao Zhuang cursed under his breath for being disloyal, but had no choice but to grit his teeth and drive over.

As soon as the Mercedes drove into the main entrance of the building, the reporters with their keen noses immediately caught the scent on the wind, shouted, and their camera flashes went off incessantly.

"Look, it's Xiao Zhuang's car!"

"Director Zhuang is here! Director Zhuang is here!"

The fans went wild, surging forward like a tidal wave, shouting Xiao Zhuang's name.

Xiao Zhuang was so frightened that he dared not get out of the car, fearing that he might reflexively injure innocent people.

Those special forces soldiers who have served all these years have truly earned their place.

Fortunately, Fatty Shao was reliable enough to bring a few security guards with him to maintain order and come over to greet them.

As soon as Xiao Zhuang got out of the car, reporters and fans immediately surrounded him, snapping photos of his face. Xiao Zhuang smiled and waved back at them.

The fans were screaming.

"Director Xiao Zhuang, I want to have your babies!"

"Look here, look here!"

"sign!"

Security guards escorted Xiao Zhuang through the gate of the celebration party.

Taking advantage of the chaos at the scene, Zhang Beixing led Zhang Yingying forward in a swaggering manner, which was spotted by some sharp-eyed reporters.

"Hey, who are these two?"

"What a handsome young man!" someone exclaimed, swooning.

"Do you think these two might be the male and female leads in Director Zhuang's next drama?"

"We can't let this big news slip by! Quick, go and film it!"

The scene suddenly became somewhat chaotic; indeed, the power of the media and fans had been underestimated.

Zhang Beixing quickly pulled Zhang Yingying up and they fled into the building like the wind.

The two looked at each other and smiled bitterly.

"Well, I got a taste of what it's like to be a big star."

The celebration hall was also packed with people, and a tower of champagne glasses had been set up, just waiting for Xiao Zhuang to open the first glass.

The hall was packed with invited guests dressed in their finest attire, and invited media members also mingled among the crowd.

Here, Zhang Beixing and Zhang Yingying were much safer, without causing any commotion, and could enjoy their food and watch the excitement from a quiet corner.

Wow, the cakes here are all so exquisitely made, I want to try them all!

Zhang Yingying's girlish heart was overflowing, and she drooled as she looked at the exquisitely crafted cream cakes.

Zhang Beixing kindly reminded him, "Eating too much will make you fat."

Zhang Yingying was immediately displeased.

"Ha, men, you're already starting to dislike me?"

As she spoke, Zhang Yingying shoved the cake in her hand into her mouth and chewed it fiercely, as if she had some great grudge against someone.

Zhang Beixing was utterly helpless.

Well, if she really eats too much later, she'll definitely complain to me again about why I didn't stop her earlier.

Women, they're just so troublesome.

Several staff members escorted Xiao Zhuang to the front. He picked up a bottle of champagne, and with a pop, the cork was opened, and the snow-white foam splashed everywhere. The invited guests applauded thunderously.

Compared to the scene outside, the flashes of cameras, which had been much quieter, began to light up one after another, and reporters started asking questions one after another.

"Director Zhuang, some people online say that your novel is based on your personal experience, and that there are many real special forces soldiers in the TV series. Is this true?"

Xiao Zhuang nodded: "I was admitted to university at the age of nineteen, and I joined the army during my freshman year. The story in the book is actually my story."

"There are many battle scenes in the TV series, which were completed with the help of my comrades. You guessed it, there were special forces soldiers and actors involved, but who exactly were the special forces soldiers, haha, I can't tell you."

Another reporter asked, "Have you found love yet?"

Xiao Zhuang tilted her head and smiled as she looked at the girl beside her, who was also dressed in her finest attire. Her eyes were gentle, and she didn't say a word, but everyone understood.

"Does Director Zhuang have any plans to enter the film industry next?"

"Yes, some film projects are under negotiation, and they are also military-themed films."

"Okay, Director Zhuang, is there anything else you'd like to say to the audience and media friends?"

Xiao Zhuang remained silent for a moment, glancing almost imperceptibly at where Zhang Beixing and Zhang Yingying were sitting before slowly looking away and speaking in a loud voice.

"I want to thank someone who is the largest investor in our show, who wishes to remain anonymous."

"Even a clever housewife can't cook without rice, and even a hero can be brought down by a penny. It can be said that without his help, this TV series might have taken another ten years to be brought to the screen."

"Therefore, I am very grateful to him for giving me the opportunity to realize my dream. Thank you."

This statement caused a huge stir, and as soon as it was uttered, journalists were already planning tomorrow's trending headlines.

—A mysterious investor appeared at the press conference for "The Last Bullet"!
One reporter pressed on, "Is this investor also an insider in the industry? Or does he have a military background like you?"

Xiao Zhuang shook his head demurely: "I'm sorry, that's all I can say. Have a good meal and drinks, everyone."

Just then, amidst the enthusiastic applause and flashing lights, Zhang Beixing suddenly caught a glimpse of an incongruous figure.

Xiao Zhuang noticed it too, and his expression changed slightly.

A man wearing a black baseball cap peeked out from under the brim of the cap and nodded to Xiao Zhuang.

The man turned and left, and Xiao Zhuang declined to be followed by the media, and began to walk backstage.

Zhang Yingying, who was enjoying her meal immensely, raised the corners of her mouth, which were covered in cream, and looked at Zhang Beixing, who had suddenly stood up, with surprise, and asked, "What's wrong?"

"It's okay, just keep eating. I'll like it even if you get fat."

Zhang Yingying sensed something unusual in his eyes and stopped eating.

"Is there danger?"

Zhang Beixing shook his head and said with a smile, "You're overthinking it. I'm going to say goodbye and I'll be back in a bit."

what?
What's the situation when saying goodbye?
Zhang Yingying also stood up, wanting to ask what exactly she was saying goodbye to, and who she was saying goodbye to.
However, Zhang Beixing had already gone far away.

After leaving the venue, Xiao Zhuang followed Geng Jihui, who was wearing a baseball cap, and walked quickly into the elevator.

"What happened?" Xiao Zhuang asked bluntly.

Geng Jihui said solemnly, "Siberian wolf, we need your assistance now."

Xiao Zhuang snapped to attention: "Ready at any time!"

"What exactly happened?" he asked, putting his hand down.

Geng Jihui sighed softly.

“Owl was accidentally exposed while carrying out an overseas anti-drug mission. He is now being held in a small village in southern Xinjiang. The faces of every one of our active-duty special forces members have been exposed by spies. But you are different. All your information was erased ten years ago. Now only you can go and rescue him.”

Geng Jihui added emphatically, "The owl needs you!"

"It is my duty!" Xiao Zhuang declared, as if taking an oath.

Miao Lian was his mentor in his military career, both his teacher and like a father to him. Xiao Zhuang would never want to lose him, and he would go forward even if it meant facing mountains of knives and seas of fire!

The two stepped out of the elevator and ran up to the roof, where a light helicopter was waiting for Xiao Zhuang.

There were some supplies piled up at the entrance, including camouflage combat uniforms, as well as Xiao Zhuang's sidearm and arm patch. Xiao Zhuang quickly dressed and covered his face with face paint.

The two saluted each other, and just as Xiao Zhuang was about to board the plane and leave, a smiling Zhang Beixing suddenly appeared in front of them.

Geng Jihui looked surprised: "Captain Zhang, what are you doing here?"

The key point is that they didn't realize they were being followed the whole way!
Completely unaware, all those years of counter-surveillance training have been for nothing.

Zhang Beixing said dismissively, "Don't look at me like that, I wasn't following you."

As he spoke, he pointed to the building and said, "I arrived earlier than you."

Xiao Zhuang exclaimed in shock, "You climbed up from the outside?!"

Zhang Beixing smiled noncommittally: "None of that matters. You're about to become Batman, so can't I be Spider-Man for a little while and have some fun?"

"They specially invited me over, but I haven't even had a drink before they're leaving without even saying goodbye. Isn't that a bit much?"

Xiao Zhuang said awkwardly, "It happened so suddenly, I'll treat you to drinks when I get back."

"Have a safe journey. If you encounter any difficulties and need help, remember to contact me."

Geng Jihui interjected, "I'm afraid that won't work. Not only our Lone Wolf Commando members, but your Red Cell team has also been affected."

Zhang Beixing didn't intend to tell them about the disguise technique; he simply gave Xiao Zhuang a look that said, "Trust me."

Xiao Zhuang nodded emphatically, a strange sense of trust welling up in his heart.

"I've written it down."

"goodbye!"

"goodbye!"

The helicopter took off and roared into the sky.

The main character of the celebration party suddenly disappeared without a word, leaving all the reporters who arrived at the scene empty-handed.

Having been tricked by Xiao Zhuang again without realizing it, Fatty Shao was extremely anxious and frantically dialed the phone.

After Zhang Beixing and Zhang Yingying had a good meal, Zhang Beixing only told Ya Tou about Xiao Zhuang's trip abroad.

The girl looked utterly helpless upon hearing the news.

"Brother Xiao Zhuang is never idle, I've actually gotten used to it."

Zhang Yingying glanced at Zhang Beixing beside her with a similar feeling, and Zhang Beixing smiled awkwardly.

Walk a hundred steps after a meal and live to be ninety-nine.

Zhang Yingying pulled Zhang Beixing along, and the two, having eaten and drunk their fill, began to stroll along the chilly spring streets.

"Zhang Beixing, no matter what, if you need to carry out dangerous missions in the future, you must tell me."

As they walked, Zhang Yingying suddenly stopped and stared intently into Zhang Beixing's eyes.

"Like last time, you told me you were going abroad to participate in a competition, but it turned out you were going to fight mercenaries. Why didn't you tell me that?"

Zhang Beixing placed his hand on Zhang Yingying's shoulder, their eyes met, and he sighed softly.

"It's not that I don't want to tell you, but you understand that military secrets cannot be leaked."

“I’m a soldier too, I can understand, but…” Zhang Yingying said aggrievedly, “Every time I think about you braving gunfire outside, I’m always worried and scared.”

"Yes, I know," Zhang Beixing said seriously, "but there's nothing I can do. Also, you can't keep hurting me."

what?
Zhang Yingying raised her eyebrows in annoyance and questioned him with a heroic air.

"What do you mean? When have I ever harmed you?"

Zhang Beixing smiled slightly and blurted out a cheesy pickup line.

"You've made me like you so much."

Zhang Yingying: "..."

She couldn't help but burst into laughter: "Have you been reading some weird books lately?"

"What's up? Interested in discussing this together tonight?"

"Pooh."

The two walked aimlessly forward when a seven or eight-year-old girl holding a lollipop ran happily past them.

Neither of them paid much attention at first, but just then, a piercing roar suddenly came from the road.

A black BMW made a sharp turn and drove into the oncoming lane.

The car was going too fast. The driver slammed on the brakes, but the inertia still propelled the car forward, and it looked like it was about to hit a little girl crossing the road!

There's no escaping it; it seems a tragic traffic accident is about to happen right before our eyes in the next second!
The girl was so frightened that she stood frozen in place.

Zhang Yingying gasped, a hint of fear flashing in her beautiful eyes.

Zhang Beixing reacted even faster, transforming into a blur in a flash.

With lightning speed, he rushed to the front of the car, grabbed the little girl, and jumped in.

The car grazed Zhang Beixing's clothes, sped past him, and after traveling another ten meters, finally managed to slow down and stop.

The little girl was terrified and didn't even notice her favorite lollipop falling to the ground. She kept wiping her tears with her sleeve.

Zhang Yingying rushed over in a few quick steps and looked at Zhang Beixing nervously.

Zhang Beixing looked relaxed: "Don't worry, I'm fine."

Seeing that Zhang Beixing was unharmed, Zhang Yingying breathed a sigh of relief, hugged the little girl, and immediately began to comfort her gently.

Zhang Beixing turned his head to look in the direction where the car had stopped. Unexpectedly, the car not only did not take the opportunity to escape, but instead slowly reversed and drove up to the three of them.

The car door opened, and a menacing-looking man with a buzz cut jumped out.

He wore a large gold chain around his neck and nine rings on his ten fingers, exuding arrogance and clearly not a kind person.

The car didn't look big, but it carried quite a few people. Four shady-looking men got out of the car and surrounded Zhang Beixing.

The leader of the honey badger spat on the ground, glared at Zhang Beixing, and said fiercely, "Damn it, you brat, are you out of your mind?!"

Zhang Beixing was speechless for a moment, then narrowed his eyes slightly.

I thought the perpetrator was afraid of the serious consequences of fleeing the scene and would come to admit their mistake, but it turns out they had ulterior motives!

Zhang Beixing watched the group calmly, quite intrigued, wanting to see what they were up to.

Zhang Yingying, who was holding the little girl in her arms and gently comforting her, couldn't help but raise her head indignantly when she saw this scene.

Are you guys crazy? Didn't you see you almost hit someone?

The honey badger roared, "Even if I hit someone, what's it to you? You're all so arrogant, who do you think you are!"

"I'm rich. If I kill someone, I'll just pay the damages. I don't need you guys showing off!"

One of the underlings chimed in, "That's right, Brother Long is right!"

"It was wrong of us to hit someone, but it was wrong of you to damage our car!"

Zhang Beixing chuckled and said, "You're Brother Long?"

I thought to myself, "This is so unoriginal. What era are we living in? So many people still have the same name in society. It's really embarrassing."

Flat-headed Dragon Bro said proudly, "That's right, I don't change my name or surname, I am indeed Siping Dragon Bro!"

"Oh." Zhang Beixing nodded, saying leisurely, "Then please have Brother Long draw the line." (End of Chapter)
