After waking up in the morning, Su Yuanyuan saw the bodyguards in her living room once she tidied up.
"Go back and rest."
"Yes, Minister. I need to take you to the office."
Su Yuanyuan nodded, not making it difficult for them. Whether it was Hu Zi or soone else, it might not all be noticed anyway.
Once in the office and before sitting down, Zeng Zhenqing ca over.
"Leader, what brings you here?"
"The person has been captured. They haven’t confessed yet, but it’s only a matter of ti. The foreign compound is surrounded."
"Leader, I think just surrounding them is enough. As for what’s going on, they know well. They’ll naturally co forward once they sober up."
"Mm, alright. We can definitely extract sothing from these three."
As they were talking, Lu Chengmin ca over too. He felt relieved seeing that Su Yuanyuan was fine.
"Leader, there’s no need to worry. I’ll be fine. Even though my fighting skills aren’t great, my senses are particularly keen. Such a small issue is nothing to worry about."
"It’s best that you’re fine. Xiao Su, let tell you, in the future, take a few more people when you go out. Don’t be complacent."
Su Yuanyuan nodded. She had co to terms with it; whether taking one or several, either way, it felt very restrictive and uncomfortable.
Besides, she would stand out too much, which is why she explained her keen senses to Lu Chengmin earlier.
The work continued as usual. Everyone here was aware of what happened. How could they not be scared? But seeing Minister Su act no different than usual during the morning eting, they felt a lot more at ease.
By noon, Qin Zhiyuan ca over, bringing over three transcripts for Su Yuanyuan to review.
"I believe they weren’t telling the truth."
Qin Zhiyuan, sipping water, nodded. "I understand, and I know what to do."
"Actually, their family’s belongings shouldn’t have been moved out yet."
"They weren’t found yesterday, so today we sent people over again, but no news has co back yet."
"Mm, there are only so many places to hide things."
"Are you scared?"
Su Yuanyuan was taken aback for a mont then shook her head, "No, I wasn’t. When I noticed sothing was off, and after the gunshot, I dealt with them and felt even less afraid."
"As long as you’re not scared," Qin Zhiyuan said, getting up and leaving with the transcript.
Just as Su Yuanyuan was about to look at the docunts, Xie Fenglan ca in, "Leader, there’s a call from the foreign compound."
"Tell them they have three days. Call once they’ve thought it through."
"Yes."
Truly admired this young leader from the heart. Such composure in the face of danger is not sothing just anyone can possess.
By evening, nearing the end of the workday, Qin Zhiyuan ca over again.
"The items have been found, and you should take a look at the transcript."
Su Yuanyuan reviewed it, finding that it matched what those six people had in mind.
"Arrange for soone to deliver these directly to the foreign compound."
Qin Zhiyuan nodded, knowing she understood this better than he did.
As he was leaving, "This ti, the bodyguards are two won and two n."
Su Yuanyuan nodded. Even if she went out, she wouldn’t be in danger. However, this was what was arranged from above.
Secretary Qian ca in to report on the arrangents for the Li Family siblings today.
"Alright, moving forward, go over there once a week. Directly arrange whatever they need and co back for reimbursent."
With the Li Family settled, she felt relieved. Truthfully, her actions towards the Li Family weren’t due to personal feelings but because their son and father were contributing to the country.
In her previous life, she saw many unsung heroes only recognized much later. While she couldn’t take action, at least she could provide so help in their daily lives.
Besides, she had received so many good things from them and had made promises to them. She intended to keep them.
Their children’s affection and dependency on this body moved Su Yuanyuan a touch.
The next day, Su Yuanyuan still didn’t answer the phone, and neither did Lu Chengmin even more so.
She still had lunch with the three leaders today. They all looked at Su Yuanyuan, who seed the sa as usual, a bit helplessly, not knowing how this girl remained so calm.
"Aren’t you eating?"
"Xiao Su, at my age, I still admire your composure."
"Leader Zeng, what composure? I was very nervous at the ti too. Had it not been for my strong senses, I wouldn’t have discovered anything.
But now that everything is over, I’m not nervous anymore."
"You have a big heart," Xu Guozhi remarked.
Su Yuanyuan nodded, "Yes, if I were petty, I couldn’t stay here for even a second."
Su Yuanyuan decided not to eat either. Sipping water while listening to their conversations, she felt she might end up with indigestion.
Then ca a delivery of a few apples, oranges, and bananas.
She could eat so of these, intending to send her share of the fruit to the two families with children.
"Xiao Su, what about the foreign compound?"
"I told them I’d pick up their call in three days. If they haven’t thought it through by then, forget it."
"They’ll surely file a complaint," Lu Chengmin chuckled.
"Let them file. It’s a good way to resolve it."
At this, the three of them fell silent, watching the young girl peeling and eating an orange. They began to eat as well.
In the evening, she instructed the secretary to deliver fruit to the two families, also bringing rice and flour to Yang Chunsheng’s family. They wouldn’t consu it now, but at least it could be kept, and the children could take it ho during the holidays.
On the third day, Su Yuanyuan received a call. Listening to the rapid, agitated chatter, she only responded by saying they’d be increasing their manpower soon.
And so, the conversation ended on a sour note. She genuinely hoped they’d react this way; how else would they be driven to desperation?
Let them complain promptly, ready to face them. It’s no big deal.
If they were smart, they wouldn’t behave this way.
In truth, it’s not that they weren’t smart. They were just too arrogant, believing nothing could be done to them, thinking they could always file complaints. No one wanted such a hassle.
But they miscalculated this ti; Su Yuanyuan didn’t find it troubleso, seeing this as an opportunity to gain leverage. Wasn’t this a good chance?
Su Yuanyuan didn’t want to listen to their nacing threats, abruptly ending the call. She reached out to Qin Zhiyuan, who sent over twenty more people. Trying to go out now wouldn’t work, not even to replenish supplies.
After that, she completely ignored their calls. Whatever happened, happened.
Five days later, Su Yuanyuan received a call from international.
She expressed her views in fluent foreign language.
Now they were asking for this side to supply resources.
