After the fake young master left home, he discovered that it wasn't raining at all outside.

"Why?!" Lou Chen immediately became anxious.

"I gave you a chance, but you didn't cherish it." Zhu Yan found the person opposite him interesting and wanted to tease him.

"Then why did you use that awful voice changer! Wouldn't I have agreed if you had just used your real voice?" Lou Chen was almost frantic. How could Jiu be so mean to him?

Was he truly invited sincerely?

ヽ(*.＞Д＜)o゜

"I'd love to," Zhu Yan said confidently.

"Good, very good..." Lou Chen spat out a few words through gritted teeth a second ago, but his expression changed the next second.

"Please, please take me in."

Lou Chen's subordinates: ?

щ(゜ロ゜щ)

They all put down their work and stared in disbelief at their usually hot-tempered boss, who was shamelessly whining and acting cute on the phone.

Zhu Yan smiled slightly.

Just moments ago, he was the one inviting Lou Chen to join, but now Lou Chen is begging him to take him in.

It seems his voice is quite useful.

"Feed? Feed???" Lou Chen finally lowered himself and begged him, but there was no response from the other end?

"What do you mean? Are you keeping me hanging? Where are you?"

Lou Chen's tone gradually became irritated.

"Watch your attitude, you're the one begging me now."

Zhu Yan never expected that the famous hacker, Yi, would be like this behind the scenes.

"You've gone too far! You think you can just take advantage of my skills and pleasant voice to mess with me like this? Do you think I'm someone who gives in so easily?"

After he finished speaking, Zhu Yan fell silent, and the surroundings became quiet.

Lou Chen panicked.

"Okay, I am. I was wrong. Please, I really, really want to join your team." Lou Chen's expression changed in just three seconds.

Zhu Yan found this person quite interesting and stopped teasing him. "Tomorrow morning at eight o'clock, at G country's international airport, someone will pick you up."

"Hey, wait a minute, could you give me a few more tickets? I have a few more people with me." Lou Chen saw that Zhu Yan had given in, and even went further.

"You can just bring them over." It's just a few more seats; the banquet organizers can accept that.

"Do you pay wages?"

"No."

Do you have the equipment?

"Comes with it."

"...Does that include room and board?"

"Not included."

Lou Chen: !!!

"If you have nothing, what kind of recruitment are you doing?!"

Lou Chen stood up angrily and yelled into the phone.

Zhu Yan laughed on the other end of the phone, and continued to ask with a teasing smile:

"So... you're not coming?"

"Come!"

Even a second's hesitation from Lou Chen would be disrespectful to him, a person who is obsessed with voices!

"Just talk to me more often," was all Lou Chen asked for.

Zhu Yan read the message but didn't reply, and hung up the phone directly.

"Boss Chen, you're just going to marry yourself off like this? What are we going to do?" Lou Chen's capable assistant, Yun Xuan, knew very well that his boss was completely powerless against a pleasant voice.

But seeing him laugh so carelessly was still unbelievable.

"Of course you're with me," Lou Chen said, still savoring the moment after hanging up the phone.

"What? You're getting married and we're supposed to be your dowry?" Yun Xuan was dumbfounded. His eldest son seemed to have suddenly become stupid.

Lou Chen realized that Yun Xuan was joking with him, and kicked him in the butt.

"Get lost. I'm doing this because I want to. You can go or not, I won't force you."

"Boss Chen, what are you talking about? Who else can we follow if not you?" Yun Xuan had become attached to Lou Chen, but he couldn't stand seeing Lou Chen give the entire organization to that Jiu, so he tried to wake him up.

"Boss, have you ever considered that she might have a nice voice, but she's ugly?"

"Tsk, looking for a beating, huh!" Lou Chen glared at Yun Xuan with displeasure. "You think I only want his voice?"

"Isn't that right?"

(ー`´ー)

"So what if he did! Have you all forgotten how he beat you to a pulp just now? I can't even beat him, so you should be grateful that I took you all with me."

Lou Chen then cursed and scolded his men before running off to pack his bags, looking forward to their meeting the next day.

Meanwhile, Zhu Yan had just hung up the phone when Lu Ze's phone rang.

International phone number.

He didn't know him either.

But he still chose to answer.

"Hey! X! Is that you?" A deep yet aged voice came from the other end.

Lu Ze's mind went blank for a moment, and he frantically tried to hang up the phone, but the other party anticipated his actions.

"You're dead if you dare hang up!"

Lu Ze paused as he was about to hang up the phone.

Zhu Yan noticed Lu Ze standing next to her with a long face and looked at him with a puzzled expression.

debtors

Lu Ze mouthed something to Zhu Yan, and Zhu Yan understood immediately.

His brows furrowed, and his expression was not good.

"Is Xiao Jiu next to you? Quickly give him the phone, hurry up!" The person on the other end seemed to be an old man, but his voice was full of energy, as if he could live for another five hundred years.

Lu Ze pouted, clasped his hands together, and begged Zhu Yan to have mercy, answer the phone, and save him.

"Did you hear me! I want you to give the phone to Xiao Jiu!"

Lu Ze turned on the loudspeaker, and his powerful voice reached Zhu Yan's ears perfectly.

Zhu Yan sighed deeply and took the phone.

"You old geezer, you're pretty fierce." Zhu Yan's cold and helpless voice came from the other side.

"Xiao Jiu!!! Waaaaah, you're finally willing to talk to me! Why haven't you come to see me or contacted me for two years, leaving me, a lonely old woman, in the US? You're so heartless."

When the old man across the table heard the long-lost voice coming through the cold phone, his imposing manner immediately subsided, and he began to complain to Zhu Yan with a sob in his voice.

"Aren't you annoying? Is Song Qigui not human?" Zhu Yan was clearly used to the old man's tone of voice.

"You haven't come to see me for two years, and you still complain that I'm annoying... Fine, then I might as well die. Anyway, I'm so old, and nobody cares about me. I also have a rebellious son at home. What's the point of me living?"

(ಥ﹏ಥ)

Banquet:…

Here we go again.

"I've said it many times, I won't accept it, there's no room for negotiation." Zhu Yan's attitude was very firm, and she would never back down.

"So you won't even come to see me? I miss you..." The old man's pitiful and aggrieved tone was just like that of an empty-nest elderly person who longs for their children to come home and visit them more often.

"I haven't even confronted you about hiding my passport, and you're just asking for trouble."

Zhu Yan's tone towards the old man showed no respect whatsoever, but the old man didn't blame him.

Because the old man really missed him.

"If you're willing to come see me, I'll let you scold me, let you hit me." The old man seemed to sob a little. "If I hadn't gone to such lengths to crack X's IP address and find his number, would you have forgotten about this old man...?"

"Alright, alright, I haven't forgotten. You better pray I don't run into you when I go to the US, otherwise I'll definitely settle accounts with you and Song Qigui."

"Alright, alright, I'm not saying anything more. My unfilial son is here, I'll hang up now. Remember my number, you must call me, otherwise I'll harass you every day. Now I know you're in H country."

Zhu Yan hung up the phone immediately.

"Brother Yan, I'm sorry. I wasn't paying attention and gave myself away." Lu Ze apologized to Zhu Yan guiltily.

"Never mind, it's only a matter of time." Zhu Yan had long expected that he couldn't hide it forever.

But to be honest, it has been two years since I last visited that old man.

Let's find some time to go and take a look, otherwise he and Song Qigui might run off to H country and cause trouble.

Country M —

"Song Yunzhi!!! You old bastard! You did this on purpose, didn't you! You secretly called Ajiu and sent me away, what do you mean by that!" Song Qigui rushed into the palace, pushed aside the guards, and wanted to fight Song Yunzhi.

"You unfilial son! What, you want to hit me again? I won't let you talk to Xiao Jiu, so what? I have X's phone now, beg me, beg me and I'll let you talk to Xiao Jiu from now on." Song Yunzhi stood up and pointed at Song Qigui, cursing back at him without caring about his image at all.

Song Qigui stood at the bottom of the steps, his bangs partially obscuring his pair of sapphire blue eyes. He had a straight nose and a tall, slender figure, and his dark blue haute couture suit accentuated his noble and elegant demeanor.

He glared fiercely at Song Yunzhi, his eyes filled with resentment for not letting him speak to Zhu Yan.

Song Yunzhi used Ajiu to threaten him.

Fine, he admits defeat!

Song Qigui lowered his eyes, his thoughts wandering.

Ajiu, where are you? I miss you so much...
