C24 Mysterious Old Man

When Su Mengxue saw Zhang Chu Lan say something, she became even more anxious and pushed him twice.

"It's nothing. Those women back in Africa all have nice figures, but they're still lacking compared to you. I'll let you meet them when I get the chance in the future."

Zhang Chu Lan seemed to have thought of something, and her heart suddenly felt heavy. After saying a few words, she put down her chopsticks, not wanting to eat anymore.

"You two don't mind, let me, an old man, sit here. Today's business is pretty good, there's no place for me to sit. I'd like to have a table with you."

An old voice came from behind Zhang Chu Lan. An old man in his 60s stood behind him, and behind him were two bodyguards.

"Even if I said I would mind, I'm afraid you would find some other excuse to sit down. Since you're here, let's eat together." Zhang Chu Lan didn't turn around, but from the tone of his voice, it seemed as if he knew the old man behind him.

"Then I, this old man, will act as a light bulb. Don't worry, this meal isn't for free. I'll treat you later." The old man was very talkative. After hearing what Zhang Chu Lan said, he didn't hold back and directly sat beside her, with the two bodyguards still standing behind him.

"It definitely isn't good for you to come looking for me at this time. Let me tell you, I came back for a vacation. I didn't help you in any way, so you should just give up."

When Su Mengxue, who was sitting at the opposite side, heard what Zhang Chu Lan said, she was filled with doubts. These words were definitely not for her to hear. Could it be for that old man?

"I'm an old man and I haven't even opened my mouth yet, but you've already shut me up. I've come all this way to find you, so you can't let me eat something first." The old man smiled and said a few words, then a waiter brought the old man a bowl of noodles.

The old man really liked eating noodles. After serving the noodles, he took two garlic and placed it in the bowl, and started to eat in big mouthfuls. He completely ignored Su Mengxue and Zhang Chu Lan's reactions.

"Director Su, wait for me in the car for a while, I have some private matters to attend to with this old man." Just as Zhang Chu Lan finished speaking, Su Mengxue stood up and went to the cashier in the dining hall. She paid for the meal, turned around, and left.

He knew that Zhang Chu Lan had her own secrets, so he didn't ask.

"This girl is not bad, she's rather suitable for you. Youngster, you must grasp the opportunity. If you miss out on this village, you won't have this shop."

After finishing his meal, the old man wiped his mouth and threw the paper into the trash can beside him. With a wave of his hand, the two bodyguards behind him left.

"There are too many people here. Let's go outside and talk. My car is just outside." After saying that, the old man stood up and left. Zhang Chu Lan hesitated for a moment, then followed the old man.

"The famous Dragon Gate's Dragon King has come to China. If I, this old man, didn't visit him, people would laugh at my lack of manners." After getting on the carriage, the old man immediately revealed Zhang Chu Lan's true identity.

"If your security personnel can't even find out about this, then it would be a waste. The higher ups have given you so much money." Zhang Chu Lan's tone was filled with ridicule.

"Are you not curious about the purpose of my visit? I can tell you that I'm not here for your help, but on a request. Someone asked me to come and see you, and he even brought you something."

The person sitting next to Zhang Chu Lan was the director of China's national security agency, Huangfu Qingtian. His words surprised Zhang Chu Lan a bit; he had been asked to come by by someone else, so how many people in China could have made the chief come here from the capital?

"Take a look. Someone asked me to hand this over to you. He also asked me to come here and look for you." Huangfu Qingtian gave Zhang Chu Lan a square box. This box was made of solid wood, and there was a lock on top of it.

Zhang Chu Lan took the box, then forcefully twisted it. A lock made of pig iron was snapped by him. Huangfu Qingtian, who was sitting next to him, saw this and was slightly shocked.

After opening the box, Zhang Chulan saw a small green book. When he saw the little book, he took a deep breath and picked it up with trembling hands.

Huangfu Qingtian also nodded when he saw this scene. Anyone who had served in the army before would be abnormally excited when they saw this, especially a special forces soldier like Zhang Chu Lan.

"How is that old head of mine doing? I haven't visited him for the past few years because I'm afraid that my status will bring him trouble." Zhang Chu Lan stared at the small green book in his hands. His eyes were moist, and even his voice was trembling.

"That old fellow's health was not bad. He had a heart attack last year and almost failed to save you. In the end, he made a trip to hell and was brought back by the King of Hell. He took some time to go back to the capital to visit him, and he only found out today that you were going back to China."

Huangfu Qingtian's words caused Zhang Chu Lan to be stunned. The news of his return to China was a top secret, even the eight generals of the Dragon Gate didn't know how that old chief found out and even knew that he was in Demonic City.

"It was you who arranged for me to be suddenly released from the police station today. Thank you for this. If you need any help in the future, feel free to say so. I will only help once. I'll repay this favor." Zhang Chu Lan placed the small green book inside the wooden box and then put the box away. She turned around and was about to get off the car, but was stopped by Huangfu Qingtian.

"Although I really want you to owe me a favor, this matter of the Public Security Bureau is not because of me, nor is it because of your old head. If he knew that you were captured by the Public Security Bureau, with his violent temper, he could destroy the Public Security Bureau."

Huangfu Qingtian didn't know that Zhang Chu Lan had been captured by the Public Security Bureau today. He only received the phone call at 4 o'clock this afternoon. Then, he brought two bodyguards and hurried over to Demonic City.

"Since it has nothing to do with you, then what I just said was taken back. I want to go back to China and live a good life. I don't want to be involved with anything. The things in the west have nothing to do with me, and the people from the Dragon Gate won't come to China to do missions."

Zhang Chu Lan opened the car door after speaking and got off. He came back from the west because he was tired of living in the west, so before Huangfu Qingtian could say anything, he stopped him.

"Zhang Chu Lan, the reason I came to find you this time was precisely to give you this item, not to ask for your help. Why is it that your personality is the same as before? It hasn't changed at all."

Huangfu Qingtian also walked out of the car. He quickly pulled Zhang Chu Lan and took out a red thing from his pocket, placing it in the latter's pocket.

"Although I know you don't want to remember the past, don't forget the oath you made. This thing can help you out a little, and this is the special care your old boss gave you."
