WTO accession

Mr. Chen didn't speak immediately, and the two of them were silent for a while, and they couldn't even hear the sound of breathing in the earphones.Teng put his elbow on the table by mistake. He knew that Mr. Chen was looking at him, but he didn't look back.

In the end, Mr. Chen sighed, and said with a slight reproach in his tone: "You went out to study for nine years, and you didn't call me a few times. What I imagined in my mind was the scene of a child walking in. Just now I almost didn't recognize you."

Teng Cuo moved the corner of his mouth and smiled silently.

Mr. Chen said regretfully: "Little fault, if we could face each other now, I would hug you."

Teng Cuo raised his eyes when he heard the words, and said in a very sincere voice: "I will hug you too, Mr. Chen."

"It's okay, there will be opportunities in the future, but it's a pity not now." Mr. Chen's voice was still smiling, and he said, "I'm leaving Yufang City."

Teng Cuo asked: "What happened? Where are you going?"

He didn't deliberately lower his voice, Lan Die heard his question, turned his face back, and frowned at him.Teng Cuo caught her gaze, leaned back on the back of the chair, and twisted the earphone wire with his fingers meaninglessly.

There was silence in the headset for a few seconds, and then Mr. Chen called him: "Little mistake."

Teng wrongly responded: "Mr. Chen."

"You have been out alone for many years, but that doesn't mean you can break the rules." Mr. Chen said slowly: "My itinerary is not your concern. Back-to-back is the law of survival. You must remember this."

There was no anger in Mr. Chen's voice, the coffee shop was noisy, but Teng Cuo still clearly caught his sinking tone.He gave Teng Cuo a sentence between exhortation and warning. Teng Cuo took a deep breath and said, "I'm sorry, Mr. Chen, I remember."

"It's okay." Mr. Chen forgave him empathetically, and then explained: "I want to go abroad to accompany Chen Zhong and Chen Liang, and the return date is uncertain. A few days ago, a traitor appeared under my command, and I provided clues to the police. Leading to a raid on my usual trading place in the center of Overtown. The market in Overtown is huge, but it is no longer safe for me. Small mistake, the police are very good at following the clues, and they have far more information about the 'Garden' More than we thought, and in this case, the less you know, the better."

He precisely controlled the order and rhythm of his speech, first taught Teng Cuo not to ask too much, and then tried his best to inform the situation, it seemed that everything was for Teng Cuo.Sure enough, Teng Cuo closed his eyes, then lowered his head and said, "I understand, Mr. Chen, I'm sorry."

Mr. Chen was very satisfied with this, and said to Teng Cuo: "You have just come back, and there are some things to get used to again."

"Well," Teng Cuo replied with his eyes still downcast, "I will, Mr. Chen."

He raised his hand and rubbed the center of his brows, his fragile neck was bent when he lowered his head, and his hair fell slightly covering the side of his face.So no one saw that in the space covered by the thick black hair, even the light in those extremely beautiful eyes was suppressed, leaving only a kind of cold unwillingness.

"Small mistake," Mr. Chen said, "Let Landie come to answer the phone too."

Teng Cuo blinked his eyes, and when he raised his head again, there was no emotion on his face.He raised his chin at Lan Die, Lan Die nodded and put on another earphone.

"Mr. Chen," Lan Die looked at the phone screen and said, "I'm here."

Mr. Chen's voice was a little colder than before. He was very direct and said: "Lan Die, during the time I'm away, you will be responsible for the business of Yufang City. You have already become a teacher and know what to do. I believe You won't let me down."

"I understand, Mr. Chen." Lan Die's eyes sparkled, and she said, "I will definitely not let you down."

Mr. Chen did not respond to her statement, and continued: "Little mistake, you will stay in Yufang City permanently. I have already arranged the residence, and Lan Die will take you there. You have found a job yourself, and I don't care about it." Oppose, but you must remember your ultimate mission."

"Okay," Teng Cuo said with a brisk tone, smiling, "Thank you, Mr. Chen."

"You have to restrain yourself," Mr. Chen said earnestly, "I allowed you to clean yourself outside for these years, but your hands can't be so clean forever."

Teng Cuo's smile froze at the corner of his mouth, and he slowly retracted it.

"Little mistake," Mr. Chen said, "you know what I want."

Teng Cuo nodded and said, "I know."

Mr. Chen said, "Let me see your value."

The sleeves of the shirt were put down and rolled up again by Teng. He used his thumb and forefinger to hold the buttons on the cuffs, imitating Lan Die's firm tone, and said, "I will, Mr. Chen."

Then he paused and added, "But I need to concentrate."

"Of course," Mr. Chen said calmly, "you don't understand business matters, and I won't let you touch them. I'll hand you over to Lan Die. You should be sensible. You are very happy abroad, but now you have to learn Keep a low profile."

"So," Teng Cuo gritted his teeth a bit, "am I a subordinate of Lan Die now?"

"No," Mr. Chen smiled, "You only report to me. Blue Butterfly will provide you with resources and protection, don't be brave, you need these. At the same time, Blue Butterfly also needs you, little mistake, you have to help each other."

Teng Cuo picked up Lan Die's sunglasses from the table, put them back on the bridge of his nose, and smiled provocatively at Lan Die.Lan Die looked back indifferently, and said to the phone: "I understand, don't worry."

"Okay." Mr. Chen's voice was very low, which meant that he was about to hang up the phone.He said at the end: "Welcome back, Teng Cuo."

***

Lan Die clicked to hang up, Teng Cuo took off the earphones and threw them back on the table.There was a tourist group outside shouting about "delayed flight" trying to get into the cafe but was huddled because there weren't enough seats available.At this time, customers in the store kept leaving in chaos, including the old man in the corner.

A few minutes later, half of the coffee shop was vacated, and people from the tourist groups outside rushed in immediately.

This group of people dragged their families along, and Teng Cuo turned his face away from the cafe with a disgusted expression on his face because of the quarrel.He saw that the old man was queuing up to leave the customs. The old man was leaning on a black cane, his back was straight, and his words and deeds were extremely gentlemanly.He had a modest smile on his face, and the ground staff responsible for checking the passports was captured by this temperament, and bowed slightly to say hello to him.

Mr. Chen passed through the turnstile, then turned his head naturally.Through the sunglasses, Teng Cuo and the two quickly met their eyes. Teng Cuo pulled off the sunglasses to reveal his eyes, and watched Mr. Chen leave in the crowd.

Teng Cuo turned his face and took a look, but Lan Die's eyes hadn't looked back.He pushed up his sunglasses, took a cell phone out of his pocket and threw it over.

Lan Die reacted quickly, but still took a little risk, and squinted at him dissatisfied.Teng Cuo shrugged his shoulders disapprovingly, and said, "Sister Ku, let's switch calls."

Lan Die looked down, most people now use touch-screen mobile phones, but the wrong thing is a black button, which is not as big as half the palm of an adult.Lan Die entered her own number and dialed, and said, "I thought you were extravagant."

"Using this phone card without real name," Teng Cuo said, "the police can't track it down."

This means that Lan Die can't track it, Lan Die gave Teng a wrong look and said, "I don't have time to talk to you."

She returned the phone, and Teng Cuo leaned forward slightly to pick it up, with a nice curve on his lips.His eyes were hidden behind the sunglasses, and there was a smile on the exposed lower half of his face. The color of his lips was not bright, but it was set off delicately by the too light skin tone.

Lan Die looked away, stood up and said, "Let's go."

The two walked through the airport hall, and when they passed the convenience store, Teng Cuo suddenly put the luggage on the ground and said, "Wait for me for a while."

This sudden behavior frightened Lan Die, she wanted to stop Teng Cuo, but this man had already walked into the supermarket with his hands in his pockets.Lan Die had no choice but to stand still and look at Bao'er. At the same time, she quickly scanned around, but found no police or suspicious people.

A few minutes later, Teng Cuo came out of the supermarket with a lollipop in his mouth.

Holding the candy in one hand and the heavy luggage bag in the other, he said lightly, "Let's go."

When he said this, everyone had already gone out, Lan Die chased a few steps, and said: "Next time, if you have something to say, tell me in advance."

"I didn't know beforehand," Teng Cuo smiled and said, "I'm addicted."

Lan Die frowned and glanced at him.

Teng Cuo briefly took the candy out of his mouth, and said with a smile, "Don't worry, I won't touch your stuff, no one knows it better than me." He put the candy between his lips and lowered his voice , whispering: "I just love sugar."

Lan Die drove a very ordinary Volkswagen, and Teng Cuo hadn't been in such a car for a long time.With the candy in his mouth, he put the co-pilot's seat back, adjusted it to a comfortable angle, and stared at the dark glass film on the window for a while.

"I have mixed up several diplomas in nine years, but you are different." He pulled his hair down with a rubber band, tilted his head back, and said with a sigh: "Mr. Chen trusts you very much, and you are his right-hand man now." .”

The car was driven out smoothly, Lan Die glanced at him sideways, but didn't speak.

Teng Cuo raised his fingers and tapped on the car window, saying, "This configuration is a bit shabby."

"I don't care," Lan Die said, "It's fine if you can drive it."

Teng knocked on the bulletproof door and window by mistake, and asked, "Has it been modified?"

Lan Die let out a "hmm", Teng Cuo's lollipop was the last bit left, and he bit it into pieces and held it in his mouth.After the car drove past the toll booth, Lan Die answered the phone, said a few brief promises to the other side, said "wait for me to deal with it", and hung up.

Lan Die put down the phone, said with a serious expression, "I have to drive a little faster."

"Boss just left," Teng Cuo sighed, rolled the broken candy with the tip of his tongue, and asked, "Is there something wrong?"

Lan Die was silent for two seconds, and said, "Someone has done something to the police."

Teng Cuo bit the candy in his mouth loudly and asked, "Have you got it?"

"I just caught it." Lan Die said.

Teng Cuo asked: "Where is it?"

Lan Die looked up at the road sign and said, "It's not far from here."

Teng Cuo raised his hand and pinched the back of his neck, asking, "Is it safe?"

"Safe," Lan Die nodded and said, "My people are very careful."

Teng Cuo said "Oh", looked out of the window for a while, and said, "Go and deal with this first, and take me with you."

"Take you with me?" Lan Die glanced at him, "Aren't you not involved in business?"

"Help each other, sister cool." The sugar in Teng Cuo's mouth completely melted, he swallowed the last bit of sweetness, and said, "It's just so close."

His words were very polite, but his tone was not as if he wanted to discuss with Lan Die.Teng Cuo's current position is very delicate. He previously stayed in a foreign country for nine years to study. Now that he is back, he doesn't have to deal with business, but that doesn't mean he can't intervene.The words Mr. Chen gave were indeed "helping each other", and Lan Die didn't intend to avoid Teng Cuo in everything.

She nodded and drove the car onto the side road beside the expressway.The south of Yufang City faces the sea, the city is bustling and corrupt, the business district is full of life and dreams, and several piers and tourist beaches gather to make a lot of money.But the city was formerly a fishing village, and the old town was occupied by handshake buildings and narrow streets and alleys. Going to the outskirts of the city, the plains in the suburbs spread straight to the countryside, and there was no development at all.The undeveloped wild sea wraps around the remote edge, making it an excellent location for crime.

The heat in the summer evening did not decrease at all. Teng Cuo opened the car window, and the salty and humid sea breeze blew over. He could already hear the sound of the waves.

Behind the reef on the beach are a few very simple wooden houses. In the past, fishermen came here occasionally, and those who couldn’t make it to the sea would rest here. Now there are fewer real fishers, and the houses are basically deserted.Lan Die and Teng Cuo went around from behind, and Teng Cuo looked towards the direction of the sea and said, "It's a good place."

Lan Die walked in front of him and said, "It's the old place."

The wooden houses are very old, and there are four bodyguards at one of the doors, all wearing ordinary T-shirts and jeans.The four of them squatted in a circle, but they all stood up when they saw the blue butterfly.

The one in the lead said, "Miss Lan, there are people inside."

Lan Die nodded to him and opened the door.No one asked who Teng Cuo was, but they didn't let him follow in immediately. A bodyguard reached out to stop him, as if he wanted to search him.

Teng Cuo didn't even take off his sunglasses, and took a step back lazily.He raised his head slightly, his Adam's apple moved, and the curve that he extended caused several bodyguards to look straight at him.The sea breeze blew over, and the long black hair was lifted by the wind and floated beside him like a net.

Lan Die realized that the man hadn't followed, and turned around to see that he was stopped.She shook her head, and the people under her immediately backed away.

Lan Die glanced at Teng Cuo, nodded, and turned sideways to signal Teng Cuo to enter the house.

Quan Yue Fang Shi, who can make Lan Die so trusting and polite, may not be able to find another one. The bodyguards did not dare to neglect, let alone ask questions, and they all stood far away.Teng Cuo followed Lan Die in, and smelled a strong smell of blood as soon as he took a step.

The light in the room was not good, Teng Cuo took off his sunglasses first, and when he looked up, he saw a person hanging from the beam.
