Chapter 284: 284

Xia Lei spoke only after he’d got into Tang Yu-Yan’s car . “What was that just now?” 

Tang Yu-Yan put on an innocent face . “What do you mean?” 

“Don’t pretend . I saw it . You put something small on Ahn Suhyeon,” said Xia Lei .  

“I was discreet and also quick - how did you see that?” said Tang Yu-Yan in surprise .  

Xia Lei laughed . “Your little sleight of hand is nothing to me . I can do it too, and better . ” 

The thieving skills Qin Xiang had taught him were definitely not something Tang Yu-Yan could measure up to .  

“Couldn’t tell that you had so many talents . No way . You’ve got to teach me . ” Tang Yu-Yan’s requests knew no end .  

“Don’t change the topic . Tell me what that was about . ” 

“Okay, I’ll tell you since you’ve seen it,” said Tang Yu-Yan, “Ahn Suhyeon’s status is rather special now . His father is one of the candidates for South Korea’s next president too . We need to understand some things so we’re just doing some routine monitoring . I’m not in charge of this task; I’m just helping her put a mini bug on him . ” 

“You’re talking about your colleagues in the hall?” 

“Yeah, but you don’t know them . ” 

“What do they want to know?” 

“They want to know lots of things . Hobbies, habits, social circles, financial trends and so on . The most important is to understand his and his father’s link to America . If Ahn Suhyeon’s father, Ahn Geungan, is a supporter of Western ideologies, we have to make some preparations on our side…” Tang Yu-Yan paused, then said, “This is politics . You won’t be interested . ” 

Tang Yu-Yan started the car and drove out of Distinguished Gathering .  

Xia Lei fished his phone out and called Guan Ling-Shan . He tasked her with the endorsement matters with Tu Qing-Long and several other matters . He was going to Afghanistan and did not know when he would be back, so there were things he had to settle properly .  

After making the call the Guan Ling-Shan, he made more calls to Zhou Xiao-Hong, Qin Xiang and Annina . He put all the things he should be doing in order . The car was almost to the airport by the time he was done making his calls .  

“You sure are a busy man . Why not just stop managing a company and sell all your assets? Join Bureau 101 officially and have an exciting life,” said Tang Yu-Yan, “Like 007, or Jason in that movie The Bourne Identity . There’s also Tom Cruise in Mission Impossible . How about that? Flying bullets, fast cars and babes . You’ll have all the excitement you want - way more interesting than your life now . ” 

Xia Lei laughed . “Don’t give me this schtick . I’m not some hot-headed greenhorn fresh out of school you can easily trick into jumping into a fire pit . ”

Tang Yu-Yan rolled her eyes at Xia Lei . “What’s so bad about being tricked by a woman?” 

“It wasn’t convenient to talk about it earlier in Distinguished Gathering but can you tell me why Ning Jing is trapped in Afghanistan now?” Xia Lei watched Tang Yu-Yan’s eyes . His left eye was able to tell if a person was lying and he would not hesitate to use his X-ray vision on her if needed .  

“This is complicated,” said Tang Yu-Yan . “Remember the compass you fixed for the Archaeological Bureau?” 

Xia Lei was surprised . “You mean that Ming dynasty compass?” 

Tang Yu-Yan nodded . “Yes, that compass . It’s now in the hands of that group of experts and Ning Jing is one of them . ”

Xia Lei was even more surprised now . “Didn’t Long Bing take the Ming dynasty compass with her?”  

“She had indeed taken it away after you fixed it but she didn’t take it for herself; it was for a mission . That compass was delivered to the relevant department in the end and then sent to the Science Department . Later, the Archaeological Bureau and the Science Department picked some of the elites to form an expert team and sent them to Afghanistan . ” 

“How’s the Ming dynasty compass related to Afghanistan? What’s going on?” Xia Lei’s head was full of questions .  

Tang Yu-Yan shrugged her pretty shoulders . “Don’t ask me, I really don’t know . I’m just carrying out my task and I’m not in the archaeological or scientific field . You’ll have to wait till after the experts are rescued if you want to know the answers . ”



“I have one more question…”

Tang Yu-Yan cut him short . “You’re like my mum . Let me have some quiet - and don’t ask me what ‘quiet’ is . ”

Xia Lei was speechless .

What Xia Lei wanted to ask wasn’t actually related to the Ming dynasty compass . He wanted to ask if Tang Tu-Yan had seen Gu Ke-Wen . He had met her in Distinguished Gathering and he’d walked off so he was thinking that Gu Ke-Wen might have left after he walked off, and Tang Yu-Yan would have seen her if she’d gone out the front door . Seeing now that Tang Yu-Yan had not mentioned Gu Ke-Wen at all, Xia Lei could assume that she had not seen her .


‘She must’ve left from the back door, huh?’ thought Xia Lei to himself .  

Thinking of Gu Ke-Wen made Xia Lei recall the scene when she had removed her clothing . Those breasts, that butt, and that dense forest… 

The haughty and arrogant Gu Ke-Wen had actually used her body as payment to beg him for help - this was so true of the saying that ‘things of the world are impermanent’ .  

Tang Yu-Yan drove the car straight into the airport and towards a military transport plane .  

Xia Lei said in surprise when the car stopped under the plane’s wings, “We’re not taking this to Pakistan, are we?” 

Tang Yu-Yan hopped out of the car . “Bingo . This is Bureau 101’s transport plane, Cloud 20 . We call it ‘Fatso’ . ” 

Xia Lei gained more information on Bureau 101 by knowing about this Cloud 20 and he thought, ‘Bureau 101 should be like America’s CIA, I guess . The two organisations are actually doing the same things . ” 

He saw ten Bureau 101 agents after getting on the plane, and a large number of weapons and equipment .  

These agents were Tang Yu-Yan’s subordinates and they stood to attention and saluted when she boarded . They then looked at Xia Lei with their eyes full of speculation .



“Let me introduce you guys . This is Bureau 101’s senior consultant . He’ll be participating in this mission . Remember this - his authority is second only to me . You follow his commands when I’m not around . Understood?” 

“Yes, ma’am!” The voices of the ten agents were loud and clear .  

Xia Lei let out an internal sigh . He was being mired deeper in this swamp of Bureau 101 .  

A few minutes later, the Cloud 20 plane codenamed Fatso started its engines . It zoomed down the runway and lifted from the ground, up to the clouds .  

Hours later, Benazir Bhutto International Airport .  

Three Ford Raptors drove out of the airport’s special exit . They did not stay in Islamabad but went straight to the Afghan border .  

The ten agents were assigned to two Ford Raptors and Tang Yu-Yan and Xia Lei occupied one . The car they were in carried equipment they’d brought from China . These weapons and ammunition were enough to start a small-scale war - weapons aplenty and of great variety .  

Tang Yu-Yan was not in a sexy cheongsam anymore but in well-worn outdoor clothing with a peaked cap on her head . She looked like a thrill-seeking self-touring tourist .  

Xia Lei had changed out of his suit and into outdoor clothing as well . He didn’t make the connection but him and Tang Yu-Yan, her in the driver’s seat and him in the passenger seat, looked like a young married couple .  

“Right, you new identity . ” Tang Yu-Yan suddenly remembered something as she drove . “My husband, Yang Guo . ” 

Husband? Yang Guo*? These words went into Xia Lei’s ear and he felt like they were clubs being wielded by Tang Yu-Yan . He was hit twice by these words and he felt a little light-headed . “I’m your husband? Yang Guo?” 

“I didn’t arrange this . It’s all Boss Shi . Take it up with him if you have an issue,” said Tang Yu-Yan with a smile, “And about the name, nobody in the Middle East knows who Yang Guo is . Let me tell you a secret - I like reading martial arts novels and Yang Guo is my idol . ” 

Xia Lei had nothing to say to that . She was one of the Tang sect, through and through . Even her idol is a heroic character from a martial arts novel . He wasn’t going to take it up with Boss Shi either because it was difficult to talk to him and going to him for small thing like this was just asking for a scolding .  



“Actually, my suggestion was to make you my elder brother but Boss Shi scolded me . ” 

Xia Lei smiled wryly . “Why scold you? He’s your godfather . ” 

“So what if he’s my godfather? He’ll still dole out scoldings as usual . He asked me if I’ve ever seen siblings go to a foreign land to drive around together . ” 

Xia Lei was speechless .  

This situation was similar to when he was in Germany . A young man and young woman were easily suspicious as siblings in a foreign land together but not if it were lovers or a married couple . It wasn’t strange for Boss Shi to scold Tang Yu-Yan if one considered that aspect .  

Tang Yu-Yan gave Xia Lei a look and spoke with a serious face, “I’ll tell you this, Xia Lei - nothing is more important than completing the mission and protecting yourself and your colleagues to the people in our line . What identities we use for our covers are not important . I can call you ‘Daddy’ if you’re visibly older . You understand what I mean?” 

“Are you giving me a lecture?” 

“Nn, maybe? Boss Shi said to teach you as much as I can . ” 

“Then teach me your Tang throwing knife techniques,” said Xia Lei .  

“We still have some time so let’s look for a place to have a bite . It’s your first time in Islamabad so you’ll regret it if you just leave like that . This is a beautiful city . Oh, you’ll love the courtesy and respect you receive as a Chinese person in Islamabad . ” 

The country on friendliest terms with China in this world was Pakistan . The Chinese also fondly call Pakistani their Pakistani brethren, and this title showed their friendliness . It was difficult to put the courtesy and respect the Chinese recieve in this land into words . Xia Lei knew these but he had never experienced it . He was intrigued by Tang Yu-Yan’s words . “Sure, take me around and let’s go get breakfast after . ” 

Tang Yu-Yan turned the wheel and the car veered off the main road and into a small street to move slowly forward . The other two Ford Raptors zoomed on the main road, continuing their journey to the Afghan border .
