”Hahaha...” Seeing Ye Qing like this, Su Guoxuan was very satisfied. He smiled and said, ”This matter is just an idea for now. I’ll discuss specific operations with you once I’ve thought it through. As long as you’re willing to continue serving in the military, I will definitely talk to you about this in the future!”

After finishing his speech, Su Guoxuan stood up and smiled, saying, ”Kaicheng, Ye Qing is returning to Shenchuan City tomorrow. Why don’t you give him a ride? I hope the orphanage matter will be completed soon; the proposal should be approved before the year-end. This way, the state funds can reach the orphanage before the New Year, allowing the children to have a good year!”

”Alright!” Su Kaicheng stood up and smiled, saying to Ye Qing, ”Ye Zi, I’ve booked the tickets for you. I’ll go with you tomorrow. However, once we’re in Shenchuan City, you have to host me!”

Knowing how much Su Guoxuan valued the orphanage issue, Ye Qing couldn’t be happier and naturally had no objections. Along with Su Kaicheng, they greeted Su Guoxuan and left his study, while Su Guoxuan stayed behind.

Watching Ye Qing and Su Kaicheng leave, Su Guoxuan’s expression gradually calmed down. He picked up the brush on the table and slowly wrote a large character ”General” on the white paper on the table.

About ten minutes later, Su Kaicheng returned to the study; he had already seen Ye Qing and Huangfu Ziyu off.

Seeing Su Guoxuan writing, Su Kaicheng did not disturb him but stood quietly by the side, watching.

The time it took Su Guoxuan to write the word was not long, but he continued holding the brush, indicating he was pondering something. Su Kaicheng understood his father well and did not interrupt him.

After a while, Su Guoxuan put down the brush, picked up the paper with the written word, placed it aside, and softly said, ”What do you think?”

”I’ve checked his records in the military. This man is very capable in combat and has strong discipline, making him a qualified and excellent soldier.” Su Kaicheng paused for a moment and said, ”If it weren’t for his brother’s affairs, he’d certainly still be serving the country. So, from this point of view, his loyalty to the country is beyond doubt!”

”So, this person can be used?” Su Guoxuan quietly asked.

Su Kaicheng thought for a moment and softly replied, ”Although his records in the military show no problems, he has spent too long in Shenchuan City and is entangled with many people there. After being in society for so long, it’s uncertain whether he has developed other ideas. Therefore, I think it’s best to observe him for a while longer. If there really are no issues, then he can be used!”

Su Guoxuan glanced at Su Kaicheng, sighed lightly, and said, ”Kaicheng, you’ve worked in this department for too long, resulting in you not daring to trust any individual too much. This might affect your future development!”

Su Kaicheng fell slightly silent and softly said, ”Dad, do you think we shouldn’t doubt this Ye Qing?”

”Entrust without doubt, and never use those you doubt!” Su Guoxuan said, ”If you want to climb higher, you must understand this principle. How you treat others is how they will treat you!”

”But...” Su Kaicheng hesitated, quietly saying, ”This matter is of great significance and allows no room for error!”

”This matter indeed already has errors!” Su Guoxuan slowly raised his head, quietly stating, ”You haven’t experienced that era, many things you’ve only heard about. But I have experienced that era, I know best what happened during those times. I hope past events never repeat. So, this time, you either completely trust Ye Qing or find another person whom you can truly trust and entrust this matter to him!”

Su Kaicheng was silent for a while and then softly said, ”Dad, actually, I believe in Ye Qing. I just don’t really want to entrust him with this matter!”

”Are you afraid he would sacrifice because of this matter?” Su Guoxuan asked.

Su Kaicheng nodded slowly, saying, ”This matter is too significant, and those who know of it do not live long. If he really handles this matter, even if he survives in the end, but… but…”

Su Kaicheng did not continue speaking, only sneaking a glance at Su Guoxuan, feeling conflicted in his heart. This matter is of great importance and highly confidential. Even if Ye Qing accomplishes the task, for confidentiality, they might kill Ye Qing to silence him!

Su Guoxuan was also silent; after a while, he sighed lightly, saying, ”For the sake of this country, some must sacrifice, and others survive. If sacrificing myself can completely resolve this matter, then I wouldn’t shy away from this offering of life!”

Su Guoxuan’s words changed Su Kaicheng’s expression; he looked at Su Guoxuan for a while, then slowly nodded, saying, ”Dad, I understand.”

”Those who aim for great achievements do not dwell on small matters!” Su Guoxuan paused and said, ”Moreover, his sacrifice, if it brings stability to the people, is worthwhile!”

Su Kaicheng nodded vigorously, though reluctant on his face, his gaze was exceedingly resolute.

Ye Qing is unaware that after he left, Su Guoxuan and Su Kaicheng had such a lengthy discussion. He also did not know that a significant mission had already designated him as the target. Whether the task succeeds or fails, his outcome will be death!

Ye Qing and Huangfu Ziyu returned to the hotel together, where Liu Mubai had long since arrived. He really likes the library here, spending the entire day there.

Great General Helian Tiehua traveled to the Capital this time, bringing his son Helian Qingfeng back. As for Nalan Tianyu, he was nearly tortured to death by Joyous Monk and didn’t have the energy to trouble Ye Qing anymore. As for Joyous Monk, Shijia took him away. So, Ye Qing and his companions are absolutely safe here in the Capital, no longer needing to hide from others as they did before.

The two hadn’t sat in the room for long before receiving a phone call from Gao Shibao. Apparently, after Fan Wenshan received a call from Su Guoli, he truly didn’t dare force drinks on Gao Shibao anymore. After dining at home with Ye Qing, Su Guoli rushed directly to Fan Wenshan’s place to find Gao Shibao.

Not until Su Guoli arrived did Gao Shibao know who his future leader would be. Seeing Su Guoli, Gao Shibao instantly understood from where his opportunity arrived, and he became extremely grateful to Ye Qing.

Su Guoli’s arrival excited Fan Wenshan and others. Especially upon hearing that Su Guoli had just dined with his elder brother, everyone trembled with excitement.

Su Guoli’s elder brother is none other than Vice Premier Su Guoxuan!

Gao Shibao was unaware of these aspects, but knowing Su Guoli will be his leader in the future, he became much closer with Su Guoli. During their banquet discussions, Su Guoli even brought out his speech drafts, asking Gao Shibao to help review them. Gao Shibao offered some crucial suggestions, making Su Guoli view him in a new light.

Seeing Su Guoli’s emphasis on Gao Shibao, Fan Wenshan and others treated Gao Shibao differently. Knowing Gao Shibao had just divorced and had nowhere to stay, Fan Wenshan immediately arranged a temporary living space for him, treating Gao Shibao exceptionally well.

Through all this, Gao Shibao knew very well it was Ye Qing’s doing. On the phone with Ye Qing, his voice choked with emotion, unable to articulate his gratitude. He never imagined he’d have a chance to rise in this lifetime. To him, Ye Qing is like a reborn parent.

Learning about Gao Shibao’s situation, Ye Qing felt genuinely happy for him. After all, Gao Shibao is Ye Qing’s best friend from university, and being able to help him certainly delighted Ye Qing.

With no events overnight, early the next morning, Su Kaicheng came over, and together with Ye Qing and the others, took a flight to Shenchuan City.

This time, Su Kaicheng’s visit presented other conveniences for Ye Qing. Though the Seven-Star Ancient Sword was gone, Ye Qing still carried the Overlord Spear, which was not allowed on the plane. With Su Kaicheng accompanying them, it became much easier; even the massive Overlord Spear was brought aboard.

By noon, they arrived at the Shenchuan City airport, where Li Lianshan and Zhao Chengshuang had received the news and brought a group to pick them up.

Ye Qing left Shenchuan City basically carried in a car, and people there had anticipated preparing his remains. Unexpectedly, not only did Ye Qing return, but he returned intact, and the previously life-threatening Twin Life Gu was gone, filling everyone with excitement.

Su Kaicheng’s arrival greatly amazed Zhao Chengshuang. He had already learned of Su Kaicheng’s status, making him somewhat flustered upon meeting. After all, Su Kaicheng’s status far surpassed the Shenchuan City family.

Su Kaicheng is quite approachable, quickly engaging in conversation with everyone. Especially with Zhao Chengshuang, considering both of their ancestors participated in the founding battles, they naturally had more topics to discuss, quickly becoming familiar.

Once back in Shenchuan City, they first took a rest before Ye Qing directly took Su Kaicheng to the orphanage in the afternoon. To him, nothing else in Shenchuan City is as crucial; the most important matter is the orphanage.

Su Kaicheng’s main reason for coming was also the orphanage issue, so he was very pleased with Ye Qing’s arrangements, touring the orphanage thoroughly with Ye Qing to inspect the conditions.

It was evident that Su Kaicheng was very satisfied with the orphanage’s condition, frequently nodding as they walked. It’s no wonder, Ye Qing’s orphanage had better conditions than those in Shenchuan City’s public schools and orphanages, anyone coming to inspect would surely find no issues!
