Chapter 71: Hero's Honor
"Uh…"
Old Master Yan's eyes were filled with shock as he stared blankly at Black Mountain, Duan Hua, and the others.
The secrets he had always guarded so closely were now easily revealed by Liu Di.
How the hell should he deal with this?
Black Mountain also looked puzzled at Master Tuo.
"Don't look at me. I haven't told Little Liu Di anything!"
Master Tuo clicked his tongue and took a small sip of his drink.
Everyone was stunned again.
Liu Di managed to deduce all this information just from a few words and some information online?
Such mental acuity... is astonishing!
"Liu Di, you must be cautious with your words!"
"Liu Di, terms like international, Chinese military, and augmented humans are not to be taken lightly!"
"Liu Di, this is not just some bizarre rumor. Don't spread it around!"
"Liu Di!..."
Old Master Yan and the two military bigwigs hurried to mitigate the situation, looking panic-stricken.
"Seeing your expressions, I guess I was right?"
Liu Di chuckled, "However, Old Master Yan, I do have a piece of advice for you."
Old Master Yan came back to his senses from his shock. "Liu Di, go ahead."
"I suggest you revoke Ouyang Fengyu's authority over the secret department."
"Or, at least be cautious of him in every way."
Liu Di said淡淡地.
"You mean his interest in my Yan family's shares?"
Old Master Yan smiled bitterly, "I'm aware of that. Fengyu comes from a humble background but was chosen by Yuwen as her husband. Seeing my Yan family's assets, it's understandable that he might have some intentions."
"Such things are common among the wealthy. I can't just force them to separate."
"I have no sons and had hoped to use you, Liu Di, to keep him in check. If he were to restrain himself, I would have let it go. But now, it seems… Liu Di, you seem completely uninterested in this."
"Old Master, actually, it's not as complicated as you think."
"I've already made a show of strength, and I've preserved the Yan family's dignity."
Liu Di said with a low smile, "If Ouyang Fengyu makes another egregious move, I will make sure he faces utter destruction!"
Old Master Yan's body trembled!
"Liu Di, it doesn't have to be that extreme…"
Liu Di didn't continue addressing Old Master Yan but turned his attention to General Black Mountain.
He smiled, "Regarding the bank matter, I was indeed rash. The soldiers covered their faces, making it impossible for me to identify them."
Black Mountain was momentarily speechless.
It wasn't a matter of rashness.
One would need the capability to be reckless!
Moreover, how could a normal person see through their disguises?
General Black Mountain twitched his mouth and said, "I truly admire your observational skills!"
"A talent like yours would be wasted if you don't join our enhancement program…"
"Ahem…"
Master Tuo cleared his throat, standing up slowly. "As for the military experiments, I can vouch for Liu Di. He will not reveal any secrets! I'm tired. Liu Di, please see me off."
"Yes, Master Tuo."
"Big Brother, should we accompany you back? We could discuss the plans in detail!"
Black Mountain quickly moved forward.
"Too bothersome!"
Master Tuo waved his hand, stepping away, with Liu Di following behind. Black Mountain and the others were left standing there, at a loss.
Outside the Yan family estate.
Zhou Tiancheng had regained consciousness and was staring blankly at the armed soldiers surrounding the estate with the younger members of the Yan family.
"What's going on here?"
"Armed soldiers have surrounded the Yan family estate, and Liu Di is left behind to talk with the bigwigs?"
"Could it be that Liu Di has some connection with the military?"
"This scale of operation must be something serious!"
Lü Ziming fumed, "I bet that arrogant Liu Di caused trouble outside and is now being surrounded by heavy troops!"
"I really want to see Liu Di handcuffed and shackled, being escorted out!"
"And then sent to prison, never to see the light of day again!"
Lü Ziming's face was twisted with malice as he fervently hoped this would come true!
Because of the concert, Liu Di had exerted an inexplicable pressure on him, leaving him very unsettled!
Suddenly,
The formation of the armed soldiers changed.
After a brief run, they lined up neatly on both sides of the estate's entrance.
They formed a line along the road, stretching up to the vicinity of the gate!
An old, stooped man first emerged from the gate.
Liu Di followed closely behind.
Whoosh!
All the armed soldiers suddenly stood straight, their arms raised in a military salute!
Liu Di and the old man walked forward slowly.
The soldiers maintained their salute, watching them all the way!
The aura was impressive!
Intimidating!
Of course,
This military salute was not for Liu Di but for Master Tuo!
Just moments ago, the soldiers had received orders over the intercom: "Salute the old hero!"
At this moment, Lü Ziming and Zhou Tiancheng were stunned!
Where were the handcuffs and shackles?
The scene before them was completely incomprehensible!
This was the highest honor of the military!
Who was that old man?
Liu Di could follow such a person.
Who exactly was he?
Could he be a high-ranking military official's offspring?
They also recalled Miss Nan's respect for Liu Di.
The few of them shuddered!
How... could this be?
Liu Di and Master Tuo walked among the soldiers, exuding an almost overwhelming presence!
Meanwhile, Lü Ziming and the others, who were still in shock,
Seemed as insignificant as ants in comparison!
Nan Ruoyi was no longer as composed as before.
The sight of dozens of soldiers saluting and seeing them off
Made even her own father seem to have never received such honor!
Sir, sir.
What exactly is your status?
And most astonishing of all,
Was Yan Family's Third Miss, Yan Qingwen!
She recognized the old man in the white vest immediately.
Master Tuo!
The once arrogant, aloof doctor who regarded everyone with disdain!
She suddenly recalled Liu Di's words: "Master Tuo looks down on your Yingzhi Group!"
Liu Di hadn't been lying. Master Tuo was certainly not as simple as he appeared!
If Master Tuo was an extraordinary figure,
Then the Liu Di whom he treated like his own...
What kind of person could he be?
Yan Qingwen was once again plunged into deep confusion!
