Ten minutes later, the two of them packed up and walked out of the compound together.

Zhao Jingyi brought Lao Yang directly to the jeep, opened the door, and shouted at Zhao Tiejun, "Get out of the car immediately and sit on the passenger seat. Lower the window to get some fresh air. You have the nerve to smoke in the car."

Zhao Tiejun got out of the car and walked around to the passenger seat. He was stunned for a moment when he saw Old Yang in a Zhongshan suit, and muttered to himself: "This damn pretty boy is really good-looking. If I were a woman, I would also grab him!" After taking a closer look, he opened the passenger seat, sat in, and rolled down the window.

Zhao Jingyi opened the back door to let in some air before pulling Lao Yang into the car.

The driver looked at Zhao Tiejun and asked, "Leader, shall we set off?"

Zhang Tiejun looked back at Zhao Jingyi, and seeing that she had no objection, he gestured to set off, and the car disappeared into the alley in a flash.

Zhao Jingyi leaned on Lao Yang and flirted with him all the way, acting like they were in love, which made Zhao Tiejun look back and glare at her repeatedly, but they both pretended not to see it. Soon, the car arrived at the Air Force compound near Gongzhufen on Wanshou Road.

After checking everyone's ID at the door, they were allowed to pass. The car drove all the way to the back halfway up the mountain before stopping. There was a single-family villa here, and the car drove directly into the yard. After the car stopped, Lao Yang got out first and opened the door for Zhao Jingyi to get in.

Holding Zhao Jingyi's arm, he looked around. The yard was quite large. There was a scrapped La9 fighter jet placed against the west wall. There were also two cars parked in the yard, and the license plates were all military license plates.

The group walked into the villa quietly. As soon as they entered the hall, they saw a portrait of a great man, and next to it were photos of the ten marshals. The most eye-catching thing was a row of shelves against the wall with various airplane models on them. Sitting in the center seat was an old man in military uniform, with military medals hanging all over his chest. Needless to say, this was Zhao Jingyi's father, Zhao Changkong.

Seeing this, Lao Yang immediately felt the burning murderous aura. This was to intimidate him! Since he had promised to save Zhao Jingyi's face, he certainly couldn't be timid.

He let go of Zhao Jingyi's hand, straightened his clothes, stepped forward quickly, stood at attention and saluted, and reported loudly: "Report to the commander, Yang Shangjin, a former major in the Special Affairs Department of the Central Intelligence Department, salutes you!"

This time, not only Zhao Changkong was stunned, but also Zhao Tiejun and Zhao Jingyi were dumbfounded. None of them knew Lao Yang's background, and they were unable to react when Lao Yang suddenly revealed this.

Zhao Changkong stood up from his chair and saluted, "At ease!"

Lao Yang immediately put down his hand and stared straight at Zhao Changkong. Zhao Changkong looked at Lao Yang with surprise and asked, "Are you Cui Li's subordinate?"

"Yes, Cui Bo is my old leader." Lao Yang answered seriously.

Zhao Changkong frowned and stared at Lao Yang and said, "Since I can't find your information, it means your situation is special! I don't care what you do, you shouldn't mess with my Xiaoliu!"

Zhao Jingyi immediately came over, grabbed Lao Yang's arm and said, "Dad, don't worry about this. I'll make my own decision and I'll go with him. If you do this again, I'll never come back."

Zhao Changkong looked at his little daughter who was hugging Old Yang, then looked at Old Yang who was sitting back on the stool with a calm expression.

"Please sit down first! Let's talk more." Zhao Changkong said.

Old Yang saluted again and said, "Yes, General!"

After the ceremony, he pulled Zhao Jingyi to sit on the stool prepared nearby. What should he do if there is only one stool? After sitting down, Lao Yang took Zhao Jingyi and held her on his lap.

Zhao Jingyi was startled by Lao Yang's sudden action. She cried "Aiya!" and punched him twice in the chest. Then she hugged Lao Yang's waist and huddled in his arms. Zhao Changkong and Zhao Tiejun were stunned.

Zhao Changkong was so angry that veins on his forehead were throbbing. He shouted, "What the hell are you two doing! Get down here now!"

Zhao Jingyi's body trembled and then relaxed. She shrank in Lao Yang's arms and pretended not to hear.

Old Yang looked at Zhao Changkong and said, "It's okay, General. I'm not tired!"

This sentence shocked everyone again. Zhao Tiankong knocked on the table and said sternly: "Is this a question of whether you are tired or not? Are you two really going against me? You come back to piss me off. Are there any rules?"

"How could that be possible! Jingyi is tired from the journey, so I am holding her to make her more comfortable. Look how hard this bench is, she will definitely feel uncomfortable when sitting on it." Old Yang immediately replied with a grin.

When Zhao Tiejun saw this, he immediately turned around, slid to sit on a sofa in the corner, and poured himself a glass of water to hide the smile in his heart.

Zhao Changkong looked at the two of them, slapped the table, snorted, and ignored him. Zhao Jingyi took back her left hand and secretly gave Lao Yang a thumbs up.

Zhao Changkong calmed down and looked at Lao Yang again. He secretly sighed that he was really good-looking! This guy was handsome and charming, and he was definitely like Pan An and Song Yu. Although he didn't admit it, he was very satisfied with him. Although he had never met him, Lao Yang's behavior showed that he was a responsible and loving wife. It was not known whether it was a blessing or a curse for her to follow Cui Li, the vicious villain. He didn't know what would happen to his daughter if she was mixed up with such a person.

Zhao Changkong sighed in his heart and asked, "Your name is Yang Shangjin, right? I didn't find any information about you in the department. Tell me what you are doing now? If possible, our family really doesn't want to have anything to do with you!"

Old Yang looked down at Zhao Jingyi and said, "On paper, I have retired from the system."

Zhao Changkong tapped his fingers on the table and asked, "Retired, how old are you?"

Zhao Jingyi also pricked up her ears to listen, her small hands tightly grasping the clothes on Lao Yang's chest.

Old Yang patted Zhao Jingyi on the back to reassure her, and continued, "I was injured while on a special mission in 48, and the doctor diagnosed that I could not recover. After the reorganization of the Intelligence Department, I transferred to the local public security work. In the past two years, my condition became serious and I was not competent for the work, so I submitted my resignation. In view of my contribution, the leaders specially approved my retirement and allowed me to return to the countryside to retire."

Several people stared at Lao Yang. Zhao Jingyi's hands, which were holding the clothes tightly, turned white due to the force, and the blood vessels were clearly visible. Lao Yang looked down at her and signaled her to relax.

Old Yang narrated his story like a story in a storybook: "On the way back home, I passed through the Taihang Mountains and got lost in the mountains. After going through many hardships, I still couldn't find a way out of the mountains. Just when I was exhausted and ready to die, I met my master, a Taoist who lived in seclusion in the mountains."

"When we met, the master was also looking for a successor to inherit the sect's tradition, but he had never found a satisfactory one. On the way, he met me, who was dying. After saving me, he found that I had a rare innate Taoist body. So he passed on all his life's knowledge to me and cured my stubborn illness."

"I buried my master, and returned to Kyoto after learning a lot. Through the relationship with my old leader, I got in touch with the ministry, and used the treasure inherited from the sect to set up a company." Old Yang stopped talking at this, and the three of them looked at him with wide eyes.

At this moment, Zhao Jingyi, who was nestled in his arms, suddenly stiffened. She looked at Lao Yang with her big watery eyes and asked, "You said you are Yang Shangjin?"

Old Yang lowered his head, rolled his eyes at her and replied, “What do you mean I said my name is Yang Shangjin, I am Yang Shangjin!”

Zhao Jingyi immediately jumped down from Lao Yang's arms, grabbed his shoulders and asked loudly, "Are you Yang Shangjin?"

Old Yang looked at Zhao Jingyi speechlessly and said, "It's not like you haven't seen my ID, and it's not like you don't have your marriage certificate, so how could this be fake? What's there to ask?"

Zhao Jingyi stared at Lao Yang excitedly and said, "You are really Yang Shangjin!"

Old Yang simply ignored her and looked at Zhao Changkong. Zhao Changkong also looked at Old Yang thoughtfully, as if he was considering something. Zhao Tiejun was in the corner, looking at the others in confusion, unable to figure out what was going on.

Zhao Jingyi kept asking, "Are you Yang Shangjin from Xingbang Company?"

Old Yang turned his head and looked at her and asked, "Is there anyone else named Yang Shangjin?"

Zhao Jingyi's face flushed, she was at a loss. Suddenly she came forward, hugged Lao Yang's head and kissed him, saying, "Great, great! It turns out my man is Yang Shangjin."

Old Yang pushed Zhao Jingyi away, wiped his face and said, "What is there to be proud of?"

When Zhao Changkong heard his daughter mention Xingbang Company, he suddenly remembered that the boss of Xingbang Company was Yang Shangjin. So his son-in-law who suddenly appeared was actually a legendary figure, who controlled a lot of resources and played an important role in the country. So it seemed that his little daughter was marrying up with him, after all, his daughter was a second marriage. Thinking of the recent news from above, his eyes suddenly lit up. When he looked at Yang Shangjin and his daughter again, his eyes were different. No matter how he looked at them, they were so perfect, so well-matched, and so harmonious.

He turned to Zhao Tiejun in the corner and cursed, "You bastard, why are you hiding so far away? You have no eyesight at all. Didn't you see your brother-in-law and your sister come back? Go inform your mother and prepare some good wine and food. My son-in-law and I will have a drink tonight."

Zhao Tiejun, who was hiding in the corner, was immediately dumbfounded. How could he be blamed for this? I was hiding so far away, but I was still affected. He stood up with an innocent look on his face and walked towards the inner room.

Zhao Jingyi looked at her father in disbelief. When did her father become so snobbish? She had never seen him change his attitude completely just after hearing that he was the boss of Xingbang Company. He even tried to curry favor with her. Is he still her father? This must be a fake Zhao Changkong! "

Old Yang accepted Zhao Changkong's kindness very calmly, and said with a cupped hand: "Then I'll trouble you, father-in-law. I will drink a few more cups with you, father-in-law."

Zhang Jingyi turned to look at Lao Yang in surprise. Facing such a powerful old general, aren't you restrained at all?

Old Yang blinked at Zhao Jingyi and thought: Which of these generals of the older generation has not fought through mountains of corpses and seas of blood? Which one has not seen separation and death in his life. He is not good-tempered to you because you are not worthy and you are not qualified. Such a reckless man will definitely worship and flatter someone who is stronger than himself. Those young and incompetent men have died on the battlefield, and those who remain are all smart people.

Zhang Jingyi looked at Lao Yang and suddenly blushed. She came to Lao Yang shyly and whispered in his ear, "Hubby, I admire you so much. I admire you the most among all the people I know."

"You are able to pay out of your own pocket to solve the country's food and clothing problems without asking for anything in return. You have always been a hero in my mind! I am usually very ladylike, and I speak and act very quietly. I have been pretending these two days. I have to act stronger so that you won't look down on me and bully me! Don't think that I am a willful woman. I will make it up to you when I go back tonight!"

Old Yang turned around and gave her a look that said, "You decide."

Zhao Changkong looked at Lao Yang with a gratified look on his face and asked, "My dear son-in-law, I heard that you are developing in Hong Kong. Have you encountered any difficulties in China? Talk to your father and I will help you think of a solution!"

Old Yang's eyes lit up, thinking, you're finally here, I've been waiting for you. He said with great sorrow, "Father-in-law, you don't know that I've always been bullied in Hong Kong. The Hong Kong people bully me, the British bully me, and the most intolerable thing is that the Japanese also bully me! So I decided to set up a mercenary company to protect myself. This time I came back to China to seek help from the big boss."

Zhao Changkong asked hesitantly, "Son-in-law, what are your rules? It's not that your father-in-law is unwilling to help you, but it involves decisions on the international situation, and as a father, I can't cover up everything!"

Zhao Jingyi also looked at Lao Yang with a worried look on her face and advised: "Husband, if it doesn't work out, we won't go out anymore, and we don't want the company anymore! We can live our own lives comfortably, and it will be so happy to have another litter of cubs!"

Zhao Changkong was the first to scold: "What do you know as a woman? Without a country, how can there be a family? Don't hold your son-in-law back here, go find your mother to cook!"

Zhao Jingyi looked at Lao Yang aggrievedly. Lao Yang gave her a look that urged her to be obedient, and then he reluctantly left the living room and went to the backyard.

After seeing Zhao Jingyi leave, Lao Yang explained his plan to Zhao Changkong, and then waited for Zhao Changkong's opinion.

Zhao Changkong was silent for a long while, then asked uncertainly: "The mercenaries you are talking about should all be a group of profit-seeking people, which is absolutely impossible in China. The problems faced by the mercenary company you founded come from many aspects, such as food, mercenaries, weapons, and territory, which are unavoidable. And which country can tolerate an armed force stationed in its own country!"

Lao Yang patiently explained, "Mercenaries are originally a group of homeless warriors with a vested interest. They don't know right or wrong, they don't have political inclinations, they only bow to money. My father-in-law may not understand that, except in our country, in foreign countries, as long as you have money, you can buy people, horses, weapons and territory! For example, in the Malaysian Archipelago and the Indonesian Archipelago, as long as I spend a little money to rent an island, I can set up a mercenary company on it to train mercenaries and no one will care. I am almost ready now. The only thing I lack is technical arms, such as the Air Force, Navy, Artillery, Communications, etc. I know it is basically impossible to take these people away from China, and I don't expect the soldiers in the active army to help me. I just want to select some people from the professional arms who have retired or returned home with disabilities to train mercenaries. The benefits are generous, you can bring your relatives, and apply for a passport for free."

Zhao Changkong nodded and reluctantly accepted what Lao Yang said, and asked: "There are indeed many excellent pilots who retired due to injuries. If the country allows, I will introduce them to you. Tell me what kind of planes you have? If you don't have them, I dare not give them to you."
