"If not for you, all these conspiracies would not have been discovered . If not for you, God knows what would have happened to this country . "
Xinghe's ability and brain had gone way beyond their expectations . She was shrewd; no matter the issue, as long as there was small clue, she could reconstruct the whole thing . The computing power of her brain was unimaginable . There was none who had seen her ability in person that had not been impressed by her .
The Vice President also praised her . "Miss Xia, you are the most capable woman I have had the fortune of meeting in my life . I hope you will continue to contribute to this country in the future . I am sure that, with talent like yours, this country will progress greatly, and you will be able to bring about wonderful change . "
The Vice President seemed have a hidden meaning in his words . The curiosity made Elder Shen and Madam President share a look with each other . There was a glow in Mubai's eyes . Xinghe, of course, had heard the message within Vice President's words . He was asking her to join the world of politics . He believed in her capability; she would reach the greatest heights .
Advertisement"Every citizen is responsible for their country, and I am only doing my civic duty . If the country needs me, of course, I will lend my aid," Xinghe said in a tone that was neither humble nor pushy .
"Good, well said!" The Vice President was glad, his admiration toward her only increased . "Compared to you, the Tong family is nothing but an ugly stain that brings humiliation to this great country! After we get the evidence tomorrow, we mustn't forgive them . "
"Not yet . " Xinghe shook her head . "Temporarily, we mustn't go after them . "
"Why not?" The Vice President and the rest asked in shock .
Xinghe looked toward Mubai, and after getting a subtle nod from him, she explained, "The Tong family is nothing but a pawn for someone else . Without them, they will still continue with their plan . However, now, we cannot let another accident happen or the country will be thrown into chaos . Therefore, we cannot go after Tong family temporarily, and this will buy us some breathing time . "
The Vice President and the rest's faces hardened . Xinghe was right . The day the cure for the virus was created, the President was assassinated . These two events were a giant blow to the country's morale .
If they captured the Tong family there and then, the bigger mastermind would know their scheme had been exposed . With nothing to lose and everything to gain, they might commit even atrocious schemes like a direct war .
After all, Country W and a few others had been trying to suppress Hwa Xia for so many years; it was common knowledge that they had prepared a large military should the situation call for it . The few countries were only peaceful on the surface; war was not completely impossible .
When that happened, the real victim would be innocent citizens . Even though Hwa Xia was not afraid of war, they did not want to bring harm to the citizens . Furthermore, it was not only one country that wanted to come after them . If Hwa Xia was attacked by multiple countries… the consequences could be dire!
Therefore, the peaceful façade could not be torn open, at least not yet .
"Yes, we can only resolve this in secret, and we must be extremely careful," the Vice President said solemnly .
"But we have to increase our military power . Code one, initiating now," Elder Shen announced .
