Chapter 536: Chapter 536: Board First, Ticket Later?

Gu Huai’an had never really arm-wrestled with Song Yunuan.

But it was only now that he discovered how strong the girl’s grip truly was.

He stopped resisting.

Submissively, he let the little ruffian grab hold of him.

There was a momentary silence by the car.

A few breaths later, Gu Huai’an’s handsome eyebrows raised slightly as he spoke softly, "Shall we get in the car first?"

Song Yunuan tilted her head, her tone meaningful, "Get in the car first then buy a ticket?" She paused then added seriously, "That’s not out of the question."

Although Gu Huai’an didn’t accurately grasp the true meaning of ’get in the car first then buy a ticket,’ he had a feeling it wasn’t anything good.

So he chose to pretend he didn’t hear it.

Mmm, he had been having some hearing issues lately, sometimes not catching what people said.

Probably because of the shockwave from the last explosion trial.

After getting in the car, it was as if the interactions Song Yunuan had earlier never happened.

Today, Xiao Wu was driving, also in uniform.

Song Yunuan glanced at him and then looked away.

[This uniform still looks best on my own little brother.]

Gu Huai’an straightened his back.

Compliments were still very much appreciated.

Song Yunuan didn’t let her thoughts wander, and Gu Huai’an told her about the call he had received from Hans.

The call had been forwarded to him, and it had taken quite an effort.

They had taken Kurt Gymm and his people hostage, all for the sake of Dongfang Hong.

Song Yunuan also shared with Gu Huai’an the information she had learned from Chairman Wang.

Gu Huai’an quickly sorted through it, and the plan was further refined.

Song Yunuan asked Gu Huai’an what he intended to do.

Gu Huai’an’s eyes were earnest, "Everything’s arranged, I’m bringing you along."

Song Yunuan looked at Gu Huai’an and didn’t make a joke but instead asked, "Do you plan to hand over Dongfang Hong’s core technology?"

Gu Huai’an shook his head, his voice cold, "How could I possibly do that!"

"Then what are you going to do, declare war, rescue hostages?"

Gu Huai’an didn’t blink, "I’m coordinating with your operation. This time I’m the overall commander, but you will take the lead."

Song Yunuan: ...

You shouldn’t have so solemnly declared that Little Nuan needs to be obedient, not to act on your own, that everything is under my control, and that I’ll protect you.

But to Song Yunuan, it felt as if some barrier had been shattered. She straightened her posture and gave a soft hum of acknowledgment.

With everything ready, they went straight to the airport. While Bian Haiying and Shen Kexin, along with Chen Aijuan, were secretly analyzing Song Yunuan, she was already on a helicopter heading to the harbor to join another team.

Shen Kexin wouldn’t let Bian Haiying make wild guesses, and Chen Aijuan, ever the good person, pursed her lips and remained silent.

Shen Kexin told Bian Haiying, "Little Nuan is definitely not the kind of person you think she is. Also, keep this talk within our dorm and don’t let it out."

In fact, Shen Kexin really wanted to say that it was Bian Haiying who was a bit abnormal.

Don’t think everyone else is blind or a fool, unable to see the searing gazes you cast at Professor Lin.

It’s just that no one has seen anything happen between you two.

If you dare to step over the line, we will be the ones embarrassed.

But she didn’t dare voice these thoughts.

Holding back, she could only simmer with frustration.

The helicopter was filled with strangers.

There were men and women, but all were young.

All were sitting up straight, clearly well-trained.

Even though they had introduced themselves before takeoff, their expressions remained serious and focused.

Song Yunuan, bored, gazed out the window and then her eyes widened. Unblinking, she stared outside, her expression one of disbelief.

Whether they were solemnly focused ahead or secretly watching Song Yunuan, they all turned, as if by some silent agreement, to look in the direction outside, but unfortunately, they saw nothing.

Song Yunuan then curiously asked the person next to her, "Sister Xia, what are you looking at?"

Hong Xia was the accompanying doctor, and her older brother was Old Mr. Ji’s senior apprentice, so strictly speaking, she wasn’t an outsider.

Hong Xia blinked, "I was looking because I saw you were looking." Then realizing, "Little Nuan, what are you looking at?"

"Do you believe me if I said someone rode a big white bird across the clouds next to us and waved at me?"

Everyone seemed to be in good spirits.

They were curious before seeing it, but it felt different after seeing it.

But they were all calm and composed.

Hong Xia was worried that Song Yunuan might get airsick on the helicopter.

Turns out, not at all, as if she were on land, without any discomfort.

She was as leisurely as if she were on flat ground.

However, her words still made everyone pause for a second.

Gu Huai’an hooked the corner of his mouth.

Playing with people again.

Realizing what’s happening, Hong Xia played along and asked absurdly, "Did you get a good look at the person, what did they look like?"

Song Yunuan’s eyes lit up, this Hong Xia was to her taste.

"Quite handsome, the very image of an elegant immortal."

Gu Huai’an had been reading in his seat, but now he lifted his eyelids and glanced at Song Yunuan.

[Young Brother, don’t be nervous, you’re the best looking!]

Gu Huai’an coughed quietly.

Hong Xia immediately shut her mouth, no longer joining Song Yunuan in the ridiculous talk.

But she felt much more relaxed about the mission.

The tense atmosphere had also eased a great deal.

By the time Song Yunuan and the others reached the port, they were all familiar with each other.

Calling each other brother and sister non-stop.

The place they arrived at was a secret harbor.

Two naval ships and one medium-sized ship were quietly stationed on the sea.

There were buildings not far away.

People rushed out from there, and after the introductions, the operation began.

This was a group of sea flood dragons.

But Song Yunuan felt the setup was still not up to par.

She whispered to Gu Huai’an, "Next time, how about I get us the biggest ship available?"

Gu Huai’an’s eyes darkened slightly, "You mustn’t speak of this again."

Song Yunuan chuckled hehe, not sure whether she took it to heart.

Accompanying Gu Huai’an were also several members of his Dongfang Hong research team, the older ones didn’t come; those who did were the young ones.

Before Chairman Wang called, Gu Huai’an had already been in contact with Venom Fang.

The exchange location had been given to Gu Huai’an, and when the time came, they would exchange information for people.

A temporary command center had already been established.

Hans was also in contact with them at all times.

He didn’t stand by idly as he had thought he might.

Hans was filled with both hatred and guilt, vowing to blow up Venom Fang’s lair once his son and niece were rescued.

Gu Huai’an gathered the team for a meeting without any delay, telling everyone that the situation at sea changes rapidly and could be life-threatening, asking everyone to be prepared.

Of course, they were prepared.

The Water Dragon Squad members also received a secret order to protect Gu Huai’an and Song Yunuan at all costs, with thirty personnel dedicated to the task.

In fact, the higher-ups did not agree with Gu Huai’an and Song Yunuan going.

But Gu Huai’an knew, Little Nuan would definitely go.

It was better to go with her than to let her go alone.

He trusted Little Nuan’s abilities too much.

Song Yunuan called over to Gu Huai’an, "Get me a fishing rod, the sturdier the better, with a longer line, and it must be able to handle at least three hundred pounds."

Gu Huai’an led Song Yunuan to the ship’s storeroom.

Many types were laid out side by side, and Gu Huai’an picked one out for Song Yunuan.

After trying it out and seeing it met her length and weight requirements, she turned to Gu Huai’an and said, "How about I catch you a big sea turtle?"

Gu Huai’an’s eyes looked at Song Yunuan with a weighted gaze – what do you do when your loved one is too capable?
