Ace of the Dragon Division - Chapter 442

Chapter 442: Hit First, Talk Later

Sure enough, as Xu Cheng expected, the country definitely wouldn’t let him leave so easily as it might benefit other nations.

So, the higher-ups were tracking his every move.

But, Xu Cheng was still a bit surprised when he saw someone coming to look for him the very next day.

Ye Xiu!

He came.

When Lin Dong went and picked him up from the airport, Ye Xiu stared at Lin Dong for a long time and finally asked, “You are really my Big Brother Cheng’s apprentice?”

Lin Dong nodded. “I admit that my qualifications are poor, but I can really work very hard, and this time, I also plan on going with my teacher.”

“Where does your teacher plan on going?” Ye Xiu immediately asked.

Lin Dong shook his head. “Don’t know, he just said he’s heading out of the country.”

Ye Xiu skeptically withdrew his eyes from Lin Dong and looked out of the window.

Lin Dong curiously asked him, “How should I call you?”

“Just call me Teacher Ye,” Ye Xiu said.

Lin Dong: “I even call Luo Yi and Li ‘Wei Big Brother Luo’ and ‘Big Brother Li’, why should I call you Teacher?”

Ye Xiu glared at him. “So many people can only dream about calling me that. Let me tell you, I am your teacher’s brother by blood. He’s my big brother, what else should you call me if not Teacher as well?”

Lin Dong just kept on driving and they entered Xu Cheng’s villa’s gates.

After getting out of the car, he walked into the villa as he complained, “If I didn’t give you a call, were you not even planning to pick me up at the airport? Such a bad bro.”

Xu Cheng sipped on his tea and took a smoke before directly asking him, “What are you doing here?”

“What do you mean what am I doing here? Can’t I be here?” Ye Xiu began acting like a little kid. “I can’t even come and hang out with you? You can come to Yanjing to hang out with me, but I really admired Sis-in-Law for a long time now, so I came to see her. Why are you looking at me like this? I’m your little brother.”

Xu Cheng rolled his eyes at him and didn’t even give him a cig.

Ye Xiu shamelessly sat down and took out his own cig and lit it up. Then, he looked at Lin Dong who was unloading the luggage from the car and pursed up his lips in that direction. “And also, you could’ve found anyone, but why did you find yourself such a student? With your capabilities, countless young talents would want to become your apprentice if you just said the word, but why this kid? He’s got some attitude problems as well.”

Lin Dong heard Ye Xiu criticizing him, so he walked in and said to Xu Cheng, “Teacher, this guy was trying to find out about your destination from my mouth.”

Ye Xiu glared at him.

Xu Cheng laughed. “I just like how he doesn’t really blindly respect anyone and only has me in his eyes. I feel assured with such an apprentice.”

Ye Xiu snorted.

Xu Cheng: “If you don’t say why you are here, then I’m kicking you out.”

“I’m really here to play, I’m not lying,” Ye Xiu said.

“Then I will give Hu Bing a call and get him to entertain you. I still have stuff to do.” Xu Cheng was about to pick up his phone.

“No,” Ye Xiu immediately said as he stopped him from calling and bitterly smiled. “Grandpa told me to come.”

Xu Cheng snorted. “Since when did the almighty Young Master Ye become a tool?”

“I didn’t want to too…” Ye Xiu looked at Xu Cheng as if he was wronged. “Why are you planning to leave the country all of a sudden? And M Nation of all countries… How are you going to give the higher-ups peace of mind? It’s not like they wanted to fire you or anything, everything was following the formal protocol; you broke the laws and you had to be punished. Why are you leaving to go to the M Nation now? You even made me a tool that had to be ordered around to come and find you… No, I mean, a messenger, that came to provide some counseling for you.”

He took a puff of the cig and continued, “It’s fine if you go to some other country, but do you know how sensitive it is for you to go to M Nation?”

“My new profile is very well-developed, I won’t be exposed at all. In the FBI’s eyes, I’m just an officer in the military barracks.” Xu Cheng nonchalantly said, “Besides, my wife wants to go there to study, how can I not accompany her?”

Ye Xiu said, “The old man said to stop using your wife as a shield. What he meant is, if you have any objectives, just say it out directly.”

Xu Cheng: “I really don’t have any. I purely want to go to the M Nation to make money and support my wife’s education.”

Ye Xiu had the “I don’t believe it” face on. “Hehe, you can’t make money in Huaxia? The government saved all of the Ye Family’s assets for you instead of seizing it, that money’s not enough?”

“That money belongs to the Ye Family, not mine. I killed them, and you are letting me spend their money? If it were you, would you be able to spend that money with the peace of mind?” Xu Cheng said, “Besides, I will be making dollars, it will be a lot more valuable than yuan.”

“That reason does sound a bit more logical.” Ye Xiu smiled. “I will also be more straightforward and tell you exactly what Grandpa Ye wants to say. It’s fine if you want to go out and have fun, but you have to ensure that you won’t do anything that harms the interest of the nation.”

Ye Xiu: “Tsk tsk, I knew you were here to persuade me to do something. But why you? Do you have the confidence to successfully persuade me?”

“No.” Ye Xiu was pretty direct. “So that’s why, as you can see, I already brought over my luggage and plan on staying here for a while. If I can’t convince you, then I won’t be leaving.”

Xu Cheng: “That’s fine, we do need a house sitter after we leave.”

Ye Xiu didn’t know whether he should laugh or cry. “Big Brother, come on, this is my first time doing a political mission. Can you just give me some face and at least cooperate with me a bit?”

Xu Cheng smiled. He looked at him and asked, “You really want to know?”

Ye Xiu nodded. “No sh*t!”

Xu Cheng: “Go back and tell Grandpa Ye, I want to be a blank card out of the deck.”

“Blank card?” Ye Xiu thought for a moment. “What does that mean?”

Xu Cheng looked out of the window at the blue sky, and he faintly said, “It’s not going to be easy if I want to surpass old man Zhang Chenfeng. But, I want to give it a try. I have no complaints leaving the Dragon Division, and after I went to the Wei Nation, I finally realized what it means to be the Joker Card. I think my stage should also be bigger than Old Man Zhang’s.”

Ye Xiu still sounded a bit lost as he asked, “That’s like the same as not telling me anything. You still haven’t told me what you are going to the M Nation for.”

“Just tell Grandpa Ye what I just told you, maybe he will get me.” Xu Cheng smiled and then got up and walked towards the garden at the back of the villa.

Ye Xiu took out his phone.

Xu Cheng: “Are you actually going to be a tool and call right away?”

“Didn’t you tell me to tell Grandpa Ye?” Ye Xiu looked even more lost. “Come on, at least let me make this call first and do my job. *Sigh*, man, life’s hard man.”

“Watch me beat the life out of you then!” Xu Cheng jumped on him and began landing punches like crazy.

Ye Xiu shouted at Luo Yi and Li Wei, “Come on man, come and pull him off of me! You two were at least loyal soldiers of the nation before too!”

Looking over at Luo Yi and Li Wei, one was just clipping nails on a chair and one was on the sofa picking his nose.

Ye Xiu shouted at Xu Cheng, “Right now I’m at least an imperial messenger, can you at least give me some face and not humiliate me this much?”

Xu Cheng: “When I was booking this flight, I knew someone was monitoring me for sure! I just didn’t know that it would be you brat that would come to represent the higher-ups to have this talk with me! I’m very angry, so I will beat you up first! And we can talk later.”

Ye Xiu: “Ah!”

He cried out miserably. No wonder that before he came over, the old man oddly pulled him to the side and told him to talk about something casual first and warm up the relationship a bit before jumping into the topic.
