Negotiation (1)

  Di Zhenjun found it hard to believe that Di Yu, who was so heavily guarded, could reach the outside of his office, with so many whistles and surveillance cameras along the way, and how he managed to evade them.

  "Little Tiger, you've gone to so much trouble to run all the way here, aren't you going to say that you accidentally intruded again?" Di Zhenjun carefully sized up Di Yu, as if he were looking at a stranger.

  Last time was also in the military district, he and Di Yu used martial arts to fight a good match, and he was very impressed with Di Yu's skills. When he turned back to tell Lao Yezi about it, he was still thinking of ways to bring him to the military camp for further training. As for this, Lao Yezi also had this wish.

  However, the last time Di Yu said he rushed into the Di Gongguan completely by luck, and Di Zhenjun was still half-believing. Now that he can safely sneak into his own military district, if he still doubts Di Yu's ability, then he is really a fool. Moreover, today Di Yu obviously has the intention of proving his ability.

  The whole military district, he can't find a single person like Di Yu " swaggering" in, including himself.

  Di Yu smiled slightly and said, "Third Uncle, if you hadn't taken me on a tour of the military district last time, I wouldn't have been able to avoid those dozens of hidden sentries, and I definitely wouldn't have made it in."

  "You little scoundrel! Last time I asked you, you didn't even admit it and lied to me that you hadn't figured out the defense within the military zone! And now, just a few days later, you give me such a big surprise? You're asking for a beating!" Di Zhenjun said with feigned anger.

  Di Yu sighed and said, "Third Uncle, I had no choice but to do this. The old master and you have always wanted me to join the army, but I'm a lazy person who can't bear the hardships and constraints of military life. I had to hide it from you out of helplessness, so please don't blame me."

  "Huh? Then why are you being so high-profile today, spending several hours showing off your skills? Are you trying to play a joke on Third Uncle or something?" Di Zhenjun had been finding Di Yu's behavior very strange all day, and Di Yu was acting way too out of character. "I heard Second Brother has arranged a marriage for you with the daughter of the Municipal Public Security Bureau Chief?"

  Yesterday, Di Zhen Guo told Lao Ye Zi about the marriage with Shen Zai Guo and also mentioned that he would be traveling with He Su Yun in a few days. He won't interfere with the group's business for now, it has to be said that this move is quite subtle.

  "Did Third Uncle know?" Di Yu looked at him curiously.

  "Haha, Second Brother told Father yesterday and said that he would hand over all his businesses to you to manage, wanting to be a absentee boss!" Di Zhenjun nodded, but the last sentence was naturally not what Di Zhenzhou originally said to Father.

  Di Yu felt even more strange, why did Dad say this to Grandpa?

  He didn't think of Di Zhen's intention at all, but the old man and several other brothers saw through it. What is even more unexpected now is Di Zhenjun. On the one hand, Di Zhen went on a trip with his wife to show others that he had no intention of competing for the old man's property. On the other hand, he was related to the director of the Yanjing Municipal Public Security Bureau, paving the way for his son's future. With the identity of the director of the Municipal Public Security Bureau, Di Yu's status in the family will be greatly improved.

  Today, Di Yu made a big show of his exceptional abilities in front of Di Zhenjun and even expressed his "intention" to join the army over the phone, making Di Zhenjun think more about the meaning behind Second Brother Di Zhenguo's words.

  It's just that he didn't expect Di Yu's actions today had nothing to do with his father.

  "Third Uncle, I came today because there's something I'd like to ask for your help." Di Yu never thought of arguing with his family members or that his father had any profound intentions. He was now in a state of great distress, and the fact that Yang Qian was being unreasonable already gave him a headache, while Zheng Tianpao's disappearance made him even more worried.

  So far, all he can feel from his father's arrangements is trouble.

  "Haha, speak up and let Third Uncle help you with something. As long as Third Uncle can do it, I absolutely won't say no." Di Zhenjun burst out laughing. He could tell that his unfathomable nephew's request was definitely not ordinary. If he helped him, perhaps he could get Di Yu to join the army for some training.

  "I have a friend who was caught and I'd like to ask San Shu about it." Di Yu asked directly.

  "Friend got caught? Haha, if friend got caught, should go find your future father-in-law Director Shen instead, why come find me?"

  "My friend is Zheng Tianpao!" Di Yu said word by word, while paying attention to the changes in Di Zhenjun's expression.

  "What? Zheng Tianpao!" Di Zhenjun's reaction was much bigger than what Di Yu had imagined. His face sank, and he stared at Di Yu, asking: "Are you friends with him? What kind of friend? How did you get mixed up with him?"

  A series of questions did not knock Di Yu down, and he replied: "He and I grew up in the same orphanage, and we were apprentices taught by the same person!"

  "Is that the retired soldier who taught you martial arts and firearms?" Di Zhen Guo had heard from Di Yu before about the orphanage, and also mentioned a retired soldier teaching him martial arts and some knowledge of firearms.

  "Yes! To say something that may offend Third Uncle, he and I grew up wearing the same pants, eating from the same pot of rice, taking risks together, bleeding together, and even almost leaving this world together. He's not a relative, but is more than a relative!" Di Yu said with an extremely serious and solemn voice.

  They share a common vow: to live and die together. When one is in trouble, no one will stand idly by, so as long as Zheng Tianpao is still alive, Di Yu will rescue him even if it means his own death, regaining their freedom.

  "Third Uncle, tell me the truth, is he dead or alive?" Di Yu was still most concerned about Zheng Tianpao's life or death, and his expression became even more solemn than before.

  "Alive!" Di Zhenjun didn't beat around the bush, only asking: "But I really want to know how you knew he was caught? Are you involved in what's been happening recently in Yanjing? I'd like to remind you, Old Master dislikes it when the Di family is connected to lawless people."

  Di Wentai joined the army in his teens and was extremely upright, but he was extremely resentful of all personnel who harmed the country's interests and violated national laws.

  Hearing that Zheng Tianpao was still alive, Di Yu finally breathed a sigh of relief.

  As long as one is alive, everything can be said.

  "Third Uncle, you're referring to the shake-up of the underground forces in Yanjing, right?" Di Yu asked.

  "You really know!?" Di Zhenjun's face turned extremely ugly.

  Di Yu neither acknowledged nor denied, but absolutely did not default. Zheng Tianpao's killing of the underworld figure was not his order, nor did he participate, but Zheng Tianpao came to Yanjing completely because of himself, so it can be said that Di Yu is responsible.

  "Third Uncle, this brother of mine is a bit reckless. He came to Yanjing with me, and has great physical strength, but he's just playing around in the underworld, without any intention of opposing the government." The only thing Di Yu could argue for Zheng Tianpao was that he didn't kill people to oppose the government or intentionally cause panic among the people. He had been in the dark world for too long, and the underworld was similar to the previous world, where only the strong survived, so his actions were unbridled.

  "Hmph, in a moment of playfulness, six lives were lost! At the beginning, who among those who broke the law thought they could go against the government?" Di Zhenjun said calmly.

  "But he killed were all criminals who deserved to die—"

  "Is death not enough? Even if they die again, it's not worth lamenting. There are law enforcement officers to capture them and national laws to punish them. It's not up to any individual to take the law into their own hands! Tiger, this thinking of yours is very dangerous!"

  Di Yu had just opened his mouth when he was sternly interrupted by Di Zhenjun. Seeing the formulaic expression on Third Uncle's face, he knew that ordinary negotiation would not work.

  "Third Uncle, I think you shouldn't treat me as your nephew now. Instead, let's just talk as sworn brothers of Zheng Tianpao. I must save him!" Di Yu said slowly.

  "Haha! If you weren't my nephew, I'd shoot you on the spot for trespassing in a military restricted area!" Di Zhenjun remained unmoved, even exuding a faint aura of murderous intent.
