Chapter 397 Security

"Turn right ahead, No. 261, Area B, there is a Lantu Dreamer."

"What kind of car is Lantu Dreamer? I've never heard of it."

"It doesn't matter. There is only one black MPV with its lights on."

"Um……"

With Chen Hai's remote guidance, Kang Chi quickly found Zhang Qing, who was sitting in the car with her eyes closed.

He knocked on the car window and pointed to the passenger side.

After a while, the unlocking light came on and Kang Chi hurried over and sat in the passenger seat.

When he came here, Kang Chi had actually prepared a very frank apology, but when he got in the car, he suddenly didn't know how to start.

After being silent for almost half a minute, he suddenly said, "I don't know if you have ever been urged to get married. Even if you haven't, you must have experienced others forcing you to do something you don't want to do..."

"Everyone has a rebellious mentality, but it may manifest at different times. When I was a child, I actually listened to my parents quite a lot, but when I grew up, I found that they were just ordinary people among thousands of people, so I became more and more skeptical of what they said, and always hoped to find my own way..."

“Sometimes, the more you are forced, the stronger your resistance to something becomes. Even though you may know that this thing is not necessarily that difficult, and it may even be right and beautiful, because it is not voluntary, the resistance becomes stronger and stronger…”

"In this case, I think you can understand the little lie that was made up unintentionally, right?"

After the car was quiet for a while, Zhang Qing slowly said, "I understand. I've lied to my parents before. There's nothing to worry about."

Kang Chi heaved a sigh of relief.

"but……"

The orange-red lips pursed slightly, but a question was gently asked:
"Do I... really disgust you that much?"

Kang Chi's expression suddenly froze like the air.

Under the gaze of Zhang Qing's serious big eyes, countless thoughts flashed through Kang Chi's mind.

For a strong-willed girl like Zhang Qing, asking such a question makes the meaning obvious.

So, does this count as a confession from a girl?

Although Kang Chi had had several love experiences before, this was the first time he had encountered a situation where a girl confessed her love to him.

He was surprised and shocked at first, and then he seriously rethought their relationship.

However, the result obviously disappointed her.

"Why would I want to find someone I hate to be the president of the group?"

He first answered her question, and then explained with a serious face: "For a girl as beautiful as you, I think there should be no man who would not have other thoughts. I am no exception. In fact, when I first saw you in the store a few years ago, I thought to myself, how nice it would be to have such a beautiful girlfriend..."

"But that's not what you show!" Zhang Qing blurted out.

"Well... maybe I feel that this level of affection is still a little far from true love... At least I think at this stage, there are more worthy careers that I should devote my time and energy to."

Kang Chi's words immediately dimmed Zhang Qing's eyes, but she soon asked unwillingly, "Do you think I'm the clingy type?"

"That's not what I meant. I just feel that at our age, we can no longer play around with relationships like children. Once we start, we should aim to build a family. Whether it's love, marriage or family, we need to work hard to manage it. Otherwise, it would be irresponsible to everyone... I don't want to delay anyone."

"..."

Kang Chi's reason is just like the characters in TV dramas who are still studying and refuse to fall in love because it affects their studies. It makes people feel a little powerless and desperate...

Zhang Qing never dreamed that after she had mustered up the courage to confess her feelings, Kang Chi would reject her with such a reason.
This made her, who had never had any experience in love, blush so much that it seemed like blood was about to drip out.

"Do you think I'm too old and want to find someone younger and prettier..."

"Uh?"

Kang Chi couldn't help but look at her pretty face;

"Do you believe what I said..."

"Then why?"

"Didn't I just explain it?"

"I don't believe it!" Zhang Qing suddenly raised her head and stared at Kang Chi with a strong look that she had never shown to him before. "Unless you tell me clearly how long you have to wait before you will consider this issue?"

Kang Chi was stunned for a moment and started thinking about this question subconsciously.

dong dong dong-

Just as he was about to answer, there was a knock on the car window.

They both looked over quickly and saw Chen Hai standing outside the car with an anxious expression.

Kang Chi rolled down the window and asked, "What's wrong?"

"There's an emergency meeting."

"Why would an emergency meeting be held on New Year's Eve?"

Chen Hai glanced at Zhang Qing, then leaned over and whispered something in Kang Chi's ear.

Kang Chi's face changed slightly after hearing this, and he nodded and said, "Wait for me." After closing the car window again, Kang Chi was silent for a moment, and then said to Zhang Qing, "When I feel safe enough, I will relax and think about this problem carefully. At the same time, I don't want me and my family to wear protective gear and bring a lot of bodyguards to clear the place wherever we go..."

"I don't know how long it has been since I sat in a street shop to eat spicy hot pot or barbecue and enjoy beer and crayfish. To be honest, I feel that this feeling is quite bad."

Zhang Qing opened her mouth, but suddenly didn't know what to say.

Kang Chi opened the car door and got out, then turned around and looked at Zhang Qing with an apologetic look: "I have something to do and I'm leaving first. I'm sorry for messing up your New Year's Eve..."

While Zhang Qing was still silent, Kang Chi had already closed the door and got into the SUV parked in front of him.

[This time I faced it persistently and indulged myself willfully. I didn’t care whether it was right or wrong…]

The music in the car happened to randomly play Faye Wong's "Obsession".

Listening to the lyrics of the song, she couldn't help but tighten her grip on the steering wheel...

After a while, she took out her cell phone, edited a text message and sent it out.

[I applied for resignation, but this does not mean I give up. ]

After receiving the text message, Kang Chi just sighed helplessly.

After this incident, it is basically impossible for the two of them to get along like normal.

Therefore, Zhang Qing’s resignation was actually predictable.

Seeing Kang Chi looking at his phone with a complicated expression, Chen Hai couldn't help but ask, "Did the conversation go well?"

Kang Chi put away his phone and glared at him: "It's all because of you guys."

"Well, you can't blame me for this. I didn't know you used me as a shield before... I was scared to death just now. I'm also a victim, okay?"

"..."

After a moment of silence, Kang Chi put the matter aside for the time being and asked, "What is the Nirvana Project? What do you need me for?"

"I need your help in writing a special program. It shouldn't be complicated. You'll know the details in a moment."

"Well... do you think a nuclear war will happen?"

"Don't worry, they don't have the guts." Chen Hai said confidently, "Besides, our interception system is not just for show. Even if they are really crazy, it is impossible for that thing to explode on our heads."

"I hope so... What's the current progress of the war robot?"

"We are pushing forward with all our strength. It will probably take some time for large-scale production, but small-scale manufacturing is no longer a problem."

After Chen Hai finished speaking, he suddenly threw a file to Kang Chi from the side: "We have selected someone, and it seems that he is someone you know."

Kang Chi glanced at the information and found it was a personal file.

"Liu Yu?"

When Kang Chi saw the name, he immediately remembered who he was.

The college classmate that Wang Haowen introduced to Kang Chi at that time, Kang Chi’s first chip was produced in Liu Yu’s factory that was about to go bankrupt.

"Uh, what do you mean you picked him? What's wrong with him?"

"You may not know that his factory closed down two years ago and he owed a lot of money, so he took a risk and started a smuggling business."

"smuggling?"

Kang Chi had never expected this.

Two years ago, Kang Chi was already quite famous. He originally thought that if Liu Yu really couldn't make it, he would ask him for help or something.

But Liu Yu never contacted Kang Chi, so Kang Chi naturally felt that he had other options.

"Is it serious?"

"No, do you know what he was smuggling?"

"what?"

"It's also about you..."

"Stop beating around the bush now, okay?"

"Well... isn't your company on the selection list, so some places don't allow you to sell it?"

"Although it is not allowed openly, some of your products are cheap and easy to use, so there must be a group of people who will secretly find ways to sell them in places where sales are prohibited to make a profit."

"They are quite strict about this situation, but from our perspective, it's actually a good thing that someone is helping us expand the market, right? You may not know that Daqin Optics has grabbed a lot of market share in Soni's base camp through this channel, so we normally turn a blind eye to people like Liu Yu..."

Kang Chi couldn't help but feel a little fresh after hearing this.

I didn't expect that Daqin Optics' products have become a sought-after "parallel import" in the island country...

So, Liu Yu is actually an "extra-staff salesperson" of Daqin Optics?
"But what does this have to do with today's events?"

"We are going to use his channels."
