Chapter 535: Chapter 535: What a Mess!

Seeing Song Yunuan come in, he pointed to the phone handset and said, "It’s someone who claims to be Chairman Wang from Xiangjiang, saying he has important matters to discuss with you. The call isn’t disconnected, and he mentioned that he has already covered a phone bill for the school."

Song Yunuan smiled and thanked Principal Xu.

Secretary Gu immediately left the room, but the door was left slightly ajar.

Then he sat in the opposite office.

This floor was just conference rooms and the principal’s office, and at the moment it was very quiet.

Chairman Wang spoke directly to Song Yunuan, "I know that Venom Fang has intercepted the cargo ship and the people on board. Little Nuan, what do you need me to do?"

The voice on the handset was loud, and the conversation inside could be heard very clearly.

The other side was speaking in Xiangjiang dialect.

Song Yunuan also used Xiangjiang dialect.

Principal Xu had stayed in Nan City and naturally understood as well.

This person, was being too polite.

"What do you think you can do?"

"Venom Fang was hired, and the offer they received was substantial—the goal is your Dongfang Hong."

Song Yunuan: ...

Such audacity, truly daring to ask for it.

Originally, just waiting here.

It’s either this or that.

Anyway, the plot wouldn’t veer off too much, would it?

Afterwards, Chairman Wang relayed the details of what he knew, saying that Hans must already be aware of the conditions Venom Fang had proposed by now.

This was infuriating.

This was forcing us to surrender our core materials, wasn’t it?

The fruits of endless nights and overtimes put in by our researchers, meant to strengthen our nation’s power, why should we share them with you? Why don’t you share your technology with us?

It was truly bullying.

Song Yunuan asked Chairman Wang, "Chairman Wang, can you get in touch with Venom Fang?"

Chairman Wang pondered for a moment, "I can."

Song Yunuan, "What are your conditions?"

Chairman Wang was extremely courteous, "My disappointing son dares not return and is hiding everywhere. I hope Miss Song can be magnanimous and spare him this once, and I will certainly help you get in touch with Venom Fang to negotiate or at least find out what exactly is going on, whether there’s room to maneuver. After all, once the core technology of Dongfang Hong is shared, all would be lost."

Anyone understood this principle.

There was no need for him to state it.

Song Yunuan plainly refused, "Wang Kai has to pay the price for what he has done. Moreover, I’m not in a position to forgive him on behalf of my uncle, so let’s not discuss this. It will never be a condition for negotiation. Chairman Wang, I know where your son is. It’s very different if he comes forward willingly versus being captured by me. Think it through carefully."

Principal Xu, sitting on the sofa reading documents, found life to be quite magical.

A freshman who had just come of age was reprimanding a Xiangjiang transport tycoon in such a tone, and the tycoon didn’t dare to raise his voice. How had Song Yunuan managed to keep him in line so obediently?

By relying on the Gu family?

That seemed unlikely.

Because people from Xiangjiang didn’t really give much face to that.

Xia Bowen?

He and Old Feng were old friends, plus there was a familial connection. He had told him that the Nine Dragons Inkstone was retrieved by Little Nuan.

Ah, it turned out he was involved, but there was still so much he didn’t know.

At that moment, Principal Xu couldn’t speak and also had to maintain a neutral expression.

Chairman Wang went silent on the other end.

He was both angry and anxious.

Actually, he wished he could kill two birds with one stone, not even negotiate, but directly lure Song Yunuan to Venom Fang’s territory, use Venom Fang to kill Song Yunuan, eliminate the threat, and naturally, his life would be easier.

But he worried that if Venom Fang failed to kill Song Yunuan and instead angered her, she might completely destroy him.

Don’t underestimate the enemy, don’t underestimate the enemy, don’t underestimate the enemy...

Chairman Wang kept warning himself.

Song Yunuan said, "Is there anything else? If not, I’m hanging up."

"No, no, no, I have something to say."

Principal Xu wasn’t actually very clear about Xia Xindong’s specific misfortunes.

But since Shangguan Yunqi had been sentenced, there was no doubt that Xia Xindong had not had a good time in the hands of Shangguan Heng.

Without thinking, it was obvious that Chairman Wang’s son, who still wanted to plead for mercy, must have done something wrong, and now it was time to settle the score after fall.

So when he heard that Little Nuan didn’t want to talk to him, he became anxious.

Thus, Song Yunuan obtained some information about Venom Fang from Chairman Wang.

It might not be complete, but it was certainly more comprehensive than what we had.

Principal Xu sitting beside her had long stopped looking at the documents.

He was sitting there, quickly taking notes.

Our naval power is still somewhat weak at this point, so this information is really important.

Before hanging up the phone, Song Yunuan still said with a smile, "Chairman Wang, I truly appreciate your help with this matter, but we need to keep things separate. There’s no negotiating Wang Kai’s situation, but rest assured, his life won’t be taken!"

Chairman Wang: ...

Should I be thanking you now?

After the call ended, Song Yunuan’s Dongfang Hong rang.

It was Gu Huai’an.

Principal Xu saw Song Yunuan’s phone and knew it was from the first batch released and specially customized.

There were less than a hundred units.

He was lucky enough to snag one, but he didn’t carelessly put it in his coat pocket like Song Yunuan. Instead, he kept it in his briefcase, safely stored in a box made by his wife, lined with velvet. What would he do if it got damaged?

In truth, he knew it wasn’t that delicate, but he still wanted to treat it with such care.

But looking at Song Yunuan, perhaps this was the correct way to handle a Dongfang Hong?

Gu Huai’an asked Song Yunuan, "What are you doing?"

Song Yunuan replied, "I’m in Principal Xu’s office; I just took a call from Chairman Wang."

Huai’an didn’t ask what Chairman Wang said, but instead he sighed and said, "Little Nuan, can you stay calmly at school and focus on your studies?"

Song Yunuan replied, "Seems like I can’t."

"Then tell Principal Xu, I’m right at the gate and I need to take a half-month leave."

After hearing that, what could Principal Xu say?

The target of Venom Fang was Gu Huai’an and the Dongfang Hong, but they took Kurt Gymm and dozens of hostages instead.

Sharing was out of the question.

When he heard about it, he figured Gu Huai’an would have to step in.

And sure enough, that’s what happened.

But he also took down quite a bit of information. What should he do with it?

He decided to report it to the higher-ups.

Song Yunuan went to her dorm, packed quickly, and then left the school.

Gu Huai’an’s car was parked not far away.

Dressed in a neatly pressed uniform, Gu Huai’an looked dignified and refreshing like a crisp spring breeze, his features handsome as if he had stepped out of a painting.

Song Yunuan couldn’t help but whistle.

Gu Huai’an’s expression darkened.

What had she learned now?

She knows how to whistle too?

[Hey handsome guy, just admit you’re doing this on purpose to seduce me. Why else would you dress up like this and show up in front of me?]

[Alright, I won’t pretend anymore, I’m putting my cards on the table. Handsome guy, you’ve successfully caught my attention.]

Gu Huai’an stepped forward swiftly, grabbed Song Yunuan, and intended to push her into the car, but little did he expect that Little Nuan would grip his hand in return.

Not letting go, her big watery eyes blinked solemnly as she told Gu Huai’an, "Tugging and pulling at each other, what kind of decorum is this?"

Gu Huai’an: ...

He tried to pull his hand back, but alas, it wouldn’t budge.

Little girl, you speak so earnestly, yet your little hand holds on so tightly. I really have to believe your act!
