Chapter 874: Chapter 874: You Came Here Specifically to Wait for Me? Chapter 874: Chapter 874: You Came Here Specifically to Wait for Me? “Thank you,” Yan Xi made an inviting gesture, “Commander Gui, this way please. I think we will have a lot to talk about.”

Far away, Lin Nan, watching Yan Xi and Gui Baili leave together, smiled at Tang Xiao, whose fingers were tense, “What’s this move? Aren’t you going to check it out?”

Tang Xiao kept clutching his wine glass, just that the force was a bit strong, and his voice seemed steady, “Right now, all the countries are shocked by the trip organized by Han Chengbei. Submarines that can dive two twenty thousand meters deep–such technology, which country wouldn’t want to establish an alliance? Because of the emergence of the underwater nation of Atlantis, Brother Ting has already had many meetings with us. This Gui Baili is said to be the foremost commander of the Atlantis underwater nation. Yan Xi wanting to make contact with him, that’s Brother Ting’s idea.”

“Oh…” Lin Nan drew out the word, “Then why are your knuckles so tightly clenched?”

Hearing this, Mu Nianbai and Mo Zhe both laughed meaningfully.

Lin Nan asked Mu Nianbai and Mo Zhe, “I’m very interested in getting to know the grandson of the World Bank family. Are you guys interested?”

Mu Nianbai replied, “Got nothing better to do.”

Mo Zhe patted Tang Xiao on the shoulder and said, “Wait, I’ll go find out for you how far Zhou Jingwen and Yan Xi have come, whether they have already become boyfriend and girlfriend.”

Tang Xiao didn’t say anything, but neither did he reject his brothers’ goodwill.

About ten minutes later, Mo Zhe sent him a WeChat message, “Latest news, Zhou Jingwen has even bought the engagement ring already. I guess the next step is proposing. It seems like both families are old acquaintances and the parents really hope the two can be together. Brother, if it doesn’t work out, you might as well go to the civil affairs bureau for a lottery. Isn’t it said that as long as you write ten names on the spouse selection section, you can marry the person? Oh, I forgot Yan Xi isn’t subject to state assignments. Then, you might end up single.”

Seeing the WeChat message from Mo Zhe, the calmness in his eyes stirred, and he drained the red wine in his glass.

Yan Xi and Gui Baili talked for a whole half hour before Yan Xi shook hands with Gui Baili, “I hope our two nations can have more military exchanges, and I look forward to Her Royal Highness, the Queen of your country, visiting Nation A for a state visit to open military diplomatic relations.”

Gui Baili responded, “Once Her Royal Highness takes the throne, certainly.”

After saying this, Gui Baili left.

Yan Xi went to the restroom; coming out, she saw Tang Xiao waiting by the door, lighting a cigarette, seemingly lost in the curling smoke.

“Did you wait for me on purpose?” Yan Xi walked towards Tang Xiao.

After Tang Xiao crushed the cigarette butt, he tossed it into the nearby trash can, “How did your talk go with Commander Gui?”

“That’s about work. I hope you can ask me in my office,” Yan Xi refused to answer and glanced at the time, “I have other things to do later. If you have nothing else, I’ll be leaving.”

“What is it, a date with Zhou Jingwen?” After Tang Xiao said this, he knew he had asked something degrading.

Yan Xi paused for a moment, covered her lips with a loosely clenched fist, and smiled.

“What are you laughing at?” Tang Xiao’s expression tensed.

Yan Xi restrained her smile, stayed silent for a while, and then seriously nodded, “It’s not out of the question, lately my father’s heart hasn’t been good, and he is very pleased with Zhou Jingwen.”

He knew about her father’s minor heart issues since earlier this year but couldn’t help asking, “And you?”

“What?”

“Do you like Zhou Jingwen?” Tang Xiao could no longer hold back, lowered his head, and looked at her intently as he asked.
