Suddenly, she felt something falling from the sky and landing beside her.
When she picked it up and saw that it was US dollars, a hint of surprise flashed in her eyes. She quickly hid the bills in the inside pocket of her clothes, fearing that they would be discovered by the greedy man again.
She raised her head curiously, and through the dim light, she vaguely saw a blurry black shadow in the gap of the ceiling.
The figure was like a ghost, flashing by and disappearing in an instant.
The woman stared blankly at the gap, not knowing whether it was a manifestation of the gods or an unknown benefactor guarding them in secret.
Zhang Luan moved lightly between the roofs and soon disappeared among the layers of roofs.
When Zhang Luan returned to the manor, he saw a silver-white Rolls-Royce parked in front of the main building from afar, the car body shining luxuriously in the sun.
There were two military jeeps guarding the front and back, and more than a dozen fully armed government soldiers stood upright on both sides, forming a strict cordon.
Chapter 258 Engagement Banquet
"What happened?" Zhang Luan narrowed his eyes and walked towards the lobby as if nothing had happened. His pace seemed casual, but in fact, each step was calculated to find the best observation position.
A young maid hurried over and explained in a low voice, "This is General Leka's car, picking up General Chaka and Miss Miaomiaoka!" There was a hint of nervousness in her voice, and she was obviously uneasy about the sudden visitor.
"General Leka? Could he be the government general Aisha mentioned?" Zhang Luan muttered to himself, his mind quickly connecting the dots. He slowly walked towards the lobby door, observing everyone's movements.
Seeing Zhang Luan approach, several armed government soldiers immediately pointed their guns at him and blocked his path with stern expressions. "Except General Chaka and his family, no one else is allowed to approach!" the leading soldier shouted sternly.
"This is General Chaka's manor. Why are you so arrogant? Do you want to live?" Zhang Luan sneered, with a hint of disdain in his eyes.
He gently used his fingers to move away the muzzle of the gun pointed at him, his movements graceful but with an indescribable intimidation.
"Who are you?" A burly figure walked over from the side of the Rolls-Royce. It was General Leka's adjutant Min Aung Soe.
He patted the soldiers on the shoulders, signaling them to move aside. Min Aung Soe was nearly 1.9 meters tall, with muscular build, and it was clear at first glance that he was a seasoned warrior.
He stood in front of Zhang Luan, looking down at the stranger, his eyes full of vigilance and scrutiny.
"Who are you?" Zhang Luan asked back with a hint of amusement in his tone.
His eyes met Min Aung Soe's, and neither of them was willing to give in.
"I am General Lekha's adjutant, Min Aung Soe, and I'm here to invite Chaka and his daughter MyoMiaoKa to attend the engagement party held by the general for MyoMiaoKa and General Lekha's son Tun Win!" Min Aung Soe straightened his back and introduced himself word by word, his squinting eyes flashing with scrutiny as he waited for Zhang Luan's response.
"I am General Chaka's adjutant, my name is Zhang Luan!" Zhang Luan answered neither humbly nor arrogantly, his tone revealing an innate calmness.
Just then, Chaka walked out of the lobby escorted by several soldiers in green uniforms and red berets.
His face was terribly gloomy. Beside him, Miaomiaoka was wearing a light pink traditional Burmese long skirt with a white lace shawl over it. Her long black hair fell to her waist, but she could not hide the reluctance on her face.
The moment Miaomiaoka saw Zhang Luan, her eyes suddenly lit up.
Ignoring the surprised looks of the people around her, she quickly ran towards Zhang Luan and jumped into his arms like a happy little bird.
Chapter 246
"Brother Zhang Luan! I just looked for you for a long time and couldn't find you. Where have you been?!" Her voice was full of coquettishness.
"I'll go get ready so that I can accompany you to attend General Leica's banquet!" Zhang Luan said with a chuckle, a hint of tenderness flashing in his eyes.
He could feel the girl's slightly trembling body in his arms and knew that she needed support at the moment.
"I don't want to get engaged to that fat black guy Tun Wen. He's so ugly!" Miaomiao Ka hugged Zhang Luan's waist, raised her delicate little face, and complained without any concealment.
Tears glistened in her eyes, and she was obviously resisting this political marriage.
"If you don't want to get engaged, then don't get engaged. These things are easy to deal with!" Zhang Luan gently stroked Miaomiaoka's silky hair and comforted her softly.
Min Aung Soe watched this scene from the side, his eyes becoming sharper.
He noticed the unusual intimacy between Zhang Luan and Miaomiao Ka, which was obviously not the behavior of an ordinary adjutant.
"What? Didn't General Chaka explain the situation clearly to your adjutant?" Min Aung Soe put his hands in his pockets, a sarcastic smile on his lips, and a hint of disdain in his tone.
"What?" Zhang Luan frowned slightly.
“General Chaka is in the position he is today entirely because of General Leka’s help.”
Min Aung Soe said coldly, with a hint of sarcasm in his voice, "Cooperate with General Chaka to launch a pincer attack and eliminate the other warlords, while also implementing a supply blockade. Otherwise, how would General Chaka be where he is today? A marriage between our two families can create Myanmar's strongest military alliance. To disrupt the marriage would be tantamount to declaring war on the military!"
"So that's why you dare to come to the manor with just a few people? Are you sure that our General Chaka doesn't dare to offend General Leka?" Zhang Luan nodded. He knew in his heart that it was not surprising for Chaka, who was strong on the outside but weak on the inside, to do such a thing.
"We will attend the engagement party. I will tell you about other things on the way!" General Chaka's voice sounded at this time, and he restored the image of a cold and decisive warlord.
"Okay, General Chaka!" Zhang Luan nodded. He promised himself that he would give Chaka face in front of outsiders and would never let him lose his dignity.
"Brother Zhang Luan!" Miaomiaoka called out in a sweet voice, with a hint of coquettishness in her voice.
She hugged Zhang Luan's waist tighter, and clung to his arms like a clingy kitten, rubbing her cheek lightly against his chest, as if expressing her dissatisfaction and dependence in this way.
"Don't worry, I'm here, no one can make you do something you don't like!" Zhang Luan smiled slightly, raised his hand and gently stroked Miaomiaoka's hair.
Miaomiaoka blinked, and seemed to rely more on Zhang Luan's words.
Zhang Luan lowered his head slightly and placed a gentle kiss on her smooth forehead.
His movements were restrained and gentle, but it was this kind of kiss that made ripples in Miaomiaoka's little heart.
"Brother Zhang Luan, I like you!" Miaomiaoka suddenly said, her voice carrying the frankness and boldness unique to little girls.
While Zhang Luan was still lowering his head after kissing her forehead, she suddenly stood on tiptoe, brought her lips forward, and pressed them against Zhang Luan's lips without hesitation.
Her lips were soft and warm, with a youthful sweetness that belonged to a young girl.
Miaomiaoka obviously didn't have much experience, but that didn't stop her from taking the initiative.
She gently bit Zhang Luan's lower lip, tentatively extended her tongue, and licked his lips carefully.
Feeling that Zhang Luan did not resist, she suddenly became bolder and tried clumsily to pry open his teeth.
Zhang Luan was stunned for a moment. The tender tip of her tongue trembled slightly as it struggled to enter his mouth and gently touched his tongue.
That kind of immature strength made Zhang Luan feel helpless and moved.
He could feel her breathing becoming more and more rapid, and her body trembling slightly due to nervousness, but she did not retreat at all. Instead, she became more and more serious in her involvement.
"Ms. Miaomiaoka, you are about to get engaged!" Min Aung Soe's voice sounded coldly, abruptly interrupting the atmosphere between the two.
He stood aside, his brow furrowed, his tone containing an undisguised warning.
His eyes were as cold as a knife as he stared at Miaomiaoka and Zhang Luan.
Miaomiaoka ignored Minangso's reminder and turned around to glare at him, saying stubbornly and disdainfully, "Then I only like Brother Zhang Luan!"
She held her head high, her eyes full of stubbornness and resistance, and she obviously did not take Min Aung Soe's warning seriously.
Everyone present knew that Miaomiaoka grew up under the doting of her father Chaka. She had a spoiled and stubborn personality, and few people could control her.
She has always been the one who bullies others and is never bullied by others.
These words came out of her mouth, as if announcing her choice to everyone.
"Okay, get in the car, Miaomiaoka!" General Chaka had walked to the side of the car without him knowing when. His voice was low but carried an irresistible majesty.
Miaomiaoka twisted her body, trying to break free from her father's hand, but finally, under Chaka's serious gaze, she reluctantly obeyed, pouting and complaining softly: "I know..."
Just as Zhang Luan was about to get into the car, Min Aung Soe suddenly stretched out his hand to block his way.
"That's prepared for the general and the young lady. As adjutants, we must put ourselves in the right place!" Min Angso said with a smile, his eyes seeming to remind Zhang Luan not to overstep his boundaries.
"Okay, then see you at the party!" Zhang Luan stood next to the jeep and said to the little face in the window of the Rolls-Royce in front.
His voice was gentle, and there was a hint of pampering and comfort in his eyes.
Miaomiaoka was leaning against the car window with her face pressed against the glass. Her big eyes seemed to be coated with a layer of shiny luster as she looked at Zhang Luan with anticipation and admiration.
Chapter 259: Too many people, Shen Hu wasted some time
"Yeah!" Miaomiaoka nodded vigorously, with a bright and shy smile on her lips.
As she finished speaking, the car window slowly rose, isolating her face little by little behind the window.
Zhang Luan watched the Rolls-Royce slowly start up, with a faint smile still on his lips. He didn't turn around until the car drove some distance away, then he turned and walked towards the jeep behind.
He had just sat in the back seat of the car, and before he had time to lean back, the door slammed shut.
Then, two soldiers came up from the left and right, sat on either side of him with expressionless faces, and sandwiched him in the middle.
Zhang Luan glanced at the two of them. Their faces were cold, their shoulders were slightly leaning forward, and the oppressive feeling they exuded seemed to be deliberately emanating from them.
The space inside the car was not spacious to begin with, and now Zhang Luan was sandwiched between two burly soldiers, feeling even more cramped.
This scene is exactly the same as those "sending someone off for the last time" scenes in movies.
The corners of Zhang Luan's mouth lifted slightly, revealing a faint smile. He leaned back in his seat and closed his eyes, as if all this did not make him feel uncomfortable at all.
He understood that these two people were not there to chat with him, but to ensure that he could not reach the party safely.
Sure enough, the car drove out of the manor and followed the convoy all the way, but when the convoy passed a fork in the road, the jeep that Zhang Luan was riding in suddenly turned and turned into another fork in the road.
"Oh, Brother Zhang Luan's car took the wrong road!" In the Rolls-Royce, Miaomiaoka's little hands were clinging to the car window, and she just saw the jeep behind her turn into a fork in the road.
Her eyes widened, a look of worry appeared on her face, and she shouted anxiously to her father.
Chaka sat in the spacious leather chair, his hands naturally placed on his knees, his body swaying slightly with the slight shaking of the car.
When he heard Miaomiaoka's shout, his face still had that calm expression.
"It's okay. The team has its own division of labor." Chaka
Chapter 247
His voice was low and his tone was calm to the point of being indifferent.
He didn't look back, but gently closed his eyes and leaned back in his chair, as if he knew what was going to happen next.
However, Miaomiaoka was not reassured. Her little face was pressed against the car window, her eyes following the direction of the jeep until it completely disappeared from her sight. Then she pouted and complained dissatisfiedly, "But Brother Zhang Luan really drove the wrong way..."
Meanwhile, in the jeep leading the way, Min Aung Soe was whispering orders into the intercom: "Do it cleanly and quickly. Throw the body into the lake and leave no trace."
About three to five minutes later, the convoy continued to move forward at a normal speed.
At this moment, the jeep that had taken a detour earlier returned to the main road!
It quietly merged into the convoy from the side, still hanging at the end, not too far away, like a ghostly cheetah, following the convoy closely.
Min Aung Soe was originally leaning on the seat, watching everything coldly.
When he noticed the jeep's return, a disdainful smile played across his lips. He then picked up the intercom and said sarcastically, "Tsk, is it done so quickly? Seeing that arrogant Zhang Luan, I thought he was quite capable!"
However, the next second, the voice coming from the walkie-talkie made Min Aung Soe's face change suddenly.
"Sorry, you have a lot of people, so sinking into the lake took a while. Otherwise, it should have been faster." Zhang Luan's voice came from the intercom. His tone was calm, even with a hint of ease and mockery. "Do you have any other instructions?"
The sound was like a bolt from the blue, hitting Min Aung Soe's ears and making his eardrums buzz.
He was stunned for half a second, then reacted and angrily slammed his fist on the seat with a dull "bang" sound, and the veins on his forehead bulged with anger.
"Bastard!" Min Aung Soe cursed under his breath, then suddenly leaned out of the car window and looked back at the back of the convoy.
Sure enough, I saw Zhang Luan sitting in the driver's seat, holding the steering wheel with one hand and the other hand leaning leisurely on the car window.
There was a nonchalant smile on his face, as if everything that had just happened was just a meaningless game.
"You have guts!" Min Aung Soe said gritting his teeth, holding the walkie-talkie.
He forced himself to calm down, took out his cell phone and called the forward outpost.
"I'm Min Aung Soe. Shoot down the last jeep in the convoy!"
The soldier on the other end of the line responded without hesitation: "Yes!"
After hanging up the phone, Min Aung Soe, still furious, yelled at the driver in the front seat: "Drive faster! Make the cars behind speed up and pass. If you don't want to be killed, drive faster! Faster, faster, faster!"
After hearing the order, the driver stepped on the accelerator hard, the engine of the Rolls-Royce roared, the speed of the car increased rapidly, and other vehicles in front also accelerated.
According to the map on the navigation, you can reach the outpost by going around the winding mountain road ahead.
The rockets and machine guns lying in ambush ahead were already ready to go. As long as they could accurately lock onto the target when the convoy passed, they could completely wipe out Zhang Luan and his vehicle.
"No matter how arrogant or capable Zhang Luan is, can he survive the rocket and machine gun fire?" Min Aung Soe leaned back in his seat, his eyes grim and a sneer appeared at the corner of his mouth.
As someone who had been on the battlefield, he knew very well that there was no such thing as a miracle in the face of absolute power, especially for a "dead man" who was isolated and helpless and was left at the end of the team.
However, just as he was thinking about Zhang Luan's final fate——
"Bang!" A muffled sound broke the silence in the car.
