Chapter 350: He Was Wearing a Ring

“Considering Gu Ci's determination, would she be willing?

Lu Zhizhuan gazed at the clouds in the sky. Whenever there was a glimmer of hope, who would be willing to sever ties completely?

City A, Airport.

Chen Liangdong, accompanied by dozens of people, including Gu Ziyu, arrived at the airport two hours early, just in case. The control tower had people monitoring to ensure that Jiang Junlin would definitely be received.

Gu Ziyu and Chen Liangdong had been on the move all night without getting a wink of sleep. They leaned on the soft cushions inside the car, while Chen Liangdong remained vigilant. The weather in City A was pleasant, and the weather forecast indicated a clear day.

Chen Liangdong's phone rang three times, and he didn't wake up. It was Chen Fei who woke him up. Chen Liangdong glanced at the caller ID, rubbed his temples, and answered, walking a few steps away to take the call.

Gu Ziyu opened his eyes, then closed them again, listening to the intermittent sounds carried by the wind.

“Don't worry… Alright, let's have a meal together in a few days… This matter is being closely watched by many eyes. It's truly a delicate situation, isn't it?… Not a problem, it's part of our job. Alright, let's set a date in a few days.”

Chen Liangdong hung up the phone, looking unfazed. In these few hours, he had received five calls similar to this one, all from influential figures, both from the military and city administration, inquiring about Jiang Junlin. They all spoke favorably of him, and their positions were quite high, overseeing overseas operations. Even the Special Affairs Bureau had inquired.

Chen Liangdong said, “The Dark Web has cooperated in so many operations, most of them overseas. For them, the merits outweigh the risks. It's only natural for them to protect him. People's hearts are fickle. Besides, he's not a villain. Otherwise, how could Li Mu have managed to get him on the plane so smoothly this time?”

“Minister Lin's move was quite… clever.”

Gu Ziyu raised his eyelids, yawned, and Chen Fei handed her a bottle of milk. He didn't comment on these matters. He was a silent and obedient military man, following orders.

Wei Yiming tore open a pack of molten lava cheese bread and handed it to Gu Ziyu. He accepted it as breakfast, his eyes almost too heavy to keep open. He was in a state of exhaustion. Wei Yiming asked with concern, “Ziyu, you always stay up so late, won't you stop growing?”

Gu Ziyu replied with a muffled voice while munching on the bread,”…”

The bread in his hand didn't taste as good anymore.

“I stay up late all the time, shouldn't you guys reflect on yourselves?” Gu Ziyu complained, his mouth full.

Wei Yiming was in charge of information and was a doctoral student in A University's defense information department. He smiled and said, “You're right. It's all our fault for not being smart enough. You've worked hard, and we've learned our lesson. The entire information department has decided to pursue postdoctoral studies.”

Chen Liangdong didn't respond.

When it came to this matter, he couldn't help but suppress a chuckle. The national security information officers were quite arrogant, being the cream of the crop. They had passed four rounds of examinations, interviews, competitions, practical tests, and debates. It was a rigorous selection process that bookworms couldn't even dream of passing. These brothers and sisters, who were extremely high-minded, didn't expect to be thoroughly defeated by a primary school student.

Learning from their mistakes, they were all planning to pursue postdoctoral studies!

Even Chen Fei couldn't help but chuckle; they really were quite competitive.

Luckily, he was a frontline combatant and didn't need to get caught up in all of that.

Wei Yiming received another phone call, talked for nearly five minutes, and returned with a somewhat strange expression. Chen Liangdong asked, “Whose call was it?”

“President Gu,” Wei Yiming sighed, “He spoke in official language for three minutes and then invited me for tea the day after tomorrow. Implicitly, it's all about protecting Mr. Jiang.”

His network was indeed extensive!

“In recent years, finance has been thriving, and they've formed a close-knit circle. It's normal,” Chen Liangdong sighed with a headache. He had already warned his subordinates that they would be receiving more calls lately. Everyone needed to know what to say and what not to say. To ensure Jiang Junlin's safety, apart from the four of them, no one else would have contact with him. Once he landed, it would be Chen Fei taking care of his safety around the clock, including his daily life and meals, all checked by him to ensure safety.

After Gu Ziyu had his breakfast and felt a bit more alert, a voice came through his earpiece, “Attention all departments, the plane will land in half an hour. Prepare to receive the guest.”

He immediately perked up. Glancing at the time, Chen Liangdong led the team to the tarmac. This area had been cleared of all other aircraft, and security personnel were everywhere. Sniper positions were manned as well. Security was exceptionally tight!

On the plane, Li Mu felt strangely nervous. Zhou Qi and Jiang Junlin had been quiet throughout the journey. This was supposed to be a very routine mission, but he sensed something unusual.

He couldn't help but glance at Jiang Junlin.

Jiang Junlin had his eyes closed, seemingly at ease. The announcements about the landing had nothing to do with him. Li Mu noticed a ring on his middle finger that he kept rotating unconsciously.

Li Mu wondered if it was a wedding ring. It was quite elaborate!

The plane finally landed without any surprises.

Zhou Qi and Jiang Junlin were met by two separate groups. The economic crimes division's team quickly took Zhou Qi away. The handover was exceptionally quick, and within twenty minutes, he was gone. Then, Chen Liangdong arrived with his team to receive Jiang Junlin.

Jiang Junlin smiled as he looked at Gu Ziyu beside Chen Liangdong.

Seeing them, Jiang Junlin had a clear understanding of the situation. Gu Ci had already exposed his identity, and Gu Ziyu and Chen Liangdong had gained the upper hand. This was currently the best situation.

Li Mu stepped forward to handle the handover with Chen Liangdong. Chen Liangdong said, “Li Mu, this time, I'll trouble you to escort him all the way to the entrance of the Ministry of State Security.”

“No problem, it's my duty!” Li Mu readily agreed. His team had already made preparations, and Jiang Junlin was promptly escorted onto an armored vehicle, leaving the airport through a special channel.

Gu Ziyu and Jiang Junlin didn't exchange any words. Gu Ziyu wanted to wait at the airport for Gu Ci, but he couldn't afford to miss any information that Jiang Junlin might convey discreetly. So, he had no choice but to stick closely to Chen Liangdong as they left together.

Jiang Junlin didn't initiate conversation, and Chen Liangdong didn't ask. Both Gu Ziyu and Wei Yiming wouldn't start a conversation either. The journey was filled with silence. Li Mu's team continued to provide security, and they arrived safely at the entrance of the Ministry of State Security.

The Ministry of State Security had its own detention facility. Chen Liangdong had obtained the highest authorization, and Jiang Junlin was held on the top floor. Chen Fei's team rotated day and night to ensure Jiang Junlin's safety.

On the plane, Jiang Junlin hadn't eaten anything, and he felt a bit of hypoglycemia after landing. Chen Fei went to buy fast food, a burger, and a cola. When Gu Ziyu returned from the information room, he saw Jiang Junlin looking at the cola and burger on the table with a hint of disgust in his expression.

Gu Ziyu rolled his eyes.

Silently, he turned around and brought a security personnel to a building across from the Ministry of State Security, returning with some Cantonese cuisine. Jiang Junlin, who had been hungry for over ten hours, indeed didn't touch a sip of cola or a bite of the burger.

“I'll bring some from home for you tomorrow.”

“You've worked hard, baby.”

Gu Ziyu's expression remained unchanged. “You should be more considerate,

and I wouldn't have to work hard..”
