Chapter 404

“Although Zuo Bo is a bad guy, he loves you sincerely. I can assure you.”

However, Long Chen sighed in distress, “Can we not talk about him?”

He looked at He Jingyan with pleading eyes. Evidently, he was disturbed.

He Jingyan could no longer continue to put in a good word for Zuo Bo, so he said alright.

The two of them were silent for a while before Long Chen said, “Thank you, He Jingyan. Thank you.”

He was grateful for his consolation.

“Don’t mention it. Aren’t we best friends?”

He Jingyan seemed to be affected by Long Chen at this moment, and his heart was heavy.

“The commanders have issued the order that we should go to support Country Z. I just received the order and came to report to you. We need to set off in three days.”

Long Chen changed the topic, probably aware of He Jingyan’s mood.

“There’s news from Gong Cheng too. He says it’s best to leave tomorrow. He can’t wait to return to Country T. It is normal of him to miss his home country since he has left it for a dozen years.”

Long Chen tried his best to regain his usual composure, but he still sounded sad.

He Jingyan knew that, but he didn’t point out. He felt distressed with Long Chen’s voice.

“What about Xing Chen? Has he gone back to meet Ke Jie?” He Jingyan asked.

“Not yet. If he has met Ke Jie, he will definitely send us a message.”

Long Chen glanced at He Jingyan and said, “I am surprised that you released him and asked him to be our informant. Aren’t you afraid that he will tell Ke Jie about it and set up a trap for us?”

“He doesn’t dare because I have something on him.”

Long Chen raised his eyebrows with interest. “It seems that something that I don’t know has happened.”

‘That’s why he let Xing Chen go back to Ke Jie and didn’t worry if he would betray him. I thought He Jingyan has no plans for that. I was wrong. He is indeed He Jingyan.’

“What about Nan Xiao? How are you gonna deal with him?”

‘Even though he doesn’t have anything against us, he is dangerous and we can’t keep him.’

“Let him follow us to Country Z. I’d like to see how he and Ke Jie will deal with me there.”

He Jingyan didn’t take them seriously at all.

“It seems fun. Alright, we’ll play with him.”

Long Chen had returned to his usual self. At this moment, he smiled and looked like he couldn’t wait for the show.

“After Xing Chen gets in contact with us, send someone to follow Ke Jie. I want to know his movements immediately.”

“Don’t worry, I will arrange it for you,” Long Chen answered with a smile. He knew He Jingyan would ask him to do that.

He had worked with He Jingyan for so long that he knew what He Jingyan was thinking.

“Alright then, I’ll go back to my wife. If you don’t have anything to do, go find Zuo Bo. I’ll give you half a day off.”

He Jingyan said casually. In fact, he deliberately let Long Chen have time to chase Zuo Bo, not wanting him to regret it.

Long Chen’s good mood grew heavy because of He Jingyan’s words.

He took a deep breath and said, “No. If he wants to leave me, I’ll let him go. I’m not that important to him.”

Long Chen left coldly.

He Jingyan scratched his head impatiently and hated himself for talking too much, but he didn’t have any ill intentions.
