Comprehension Ability: Creating the Five Thunders Technique in Reality-Chapter 442 - 225: Dongchuan Ichiro’s Invitation_2
Even if the other party didn’t immediately agree, they should at least show a hint of a smile, not maintain such a calm expression like now. It was impossible to tell what Lin Beichen was thinking.
"Are you planning to make me join the military?"
Lin Beichen looked at Wan Guochun with some surprise.
Although he wasn’t against the idea of joining the military, and even longed for it when he was younger, now he felt that military life wasn’t suitable for his personal growth.
Hearing Lin Beichen’s question, Wan Guochun hurriedly waved his hand, shaking his head like a rattle drum.
Wan Guochun then realized that the other party misunderstood his intentions.
"I’m not asking you to join the military. We can maintain a cooperative relationship. At the same time, I’ll create an identity for you, which will make it much more convenient for you to do what you want."
Upon hearing the conditions offered by Wan Guochun, a flash of excitement flickered in Lin Beichen’s eyes.
Although Lin Beichen disguised it well, Wan Guochun still clearly caught it.
Compared to his peers, Lin Beichen was quite mature, but in front of an old fox like Wan Guochun, he was still not enough.
"If I really got some kind of military pass, I could indeed go to some places I want to in the future."
Lin Beichen thought to himself.
Nobody understood better than him that if he wanted to improve his capabilities, he had to go to certain special places.
Although with his position in the Security Bureau, he could still get to where he wanted by simply notifying them, having additional military backing wouldn’t hurt.
"I need to think about this."
Upon hearing Lin Beichen’s answer, a trace of disappointment flashed in Wan Guochun’s eyes.
It was the first time he took the initiative to win over a young person, only to be rejected in the end.
In the military, whenever he made an offer, every soldier would jump at the opportunity, as the Dragon Army was what every soldier dreamed of.
However, Song Xiangdong looked quite happy. If Lin Beichen had agreed immediately, wouldn’t it be quite embarrassing for him?
"Since that’s the case, you go back and take your time to think. I’ll arrange a car to take you away now."
As Song Xiangdong spoke, he stood up and pulled Lin Beichen out, directly handing him over to his secretary outside the office.
This was the first time Song Xiangdong sent Lin Beichen away so quickly. By the time Lin Beichen realized it, he was already sitting in the car.
Not expecting himself to become a person the Dragon Army and the Security Bureau were contending for, Lin Beichen couldn’t help but smile and shake his head in the car.
Meanwhile, in Song Xiangdong’s office, Wan Guochun looked at the other party with some dissatisfaction.
"Old Song, you’re so inconsiderate! You ruined my plan."
"And you have the nerve to talk about being inconsiderate?"
Hearing Wan Guochun’s words, Song Xiangdong’s nose almost twisted in anger.
As he spoke, Song Xiangdong’s trembling finger almost pointed directly at Wan Guochun’s nose.
"Poaching my people right in front of me, and you still have the nerve to talk about being inconsiderate."
Wan Guochun knew his actions were a bit over the top, so when faced with Song Xiangdong’s anger, he remained silent.
"I just want to bring more potential to our country."
Undeniably, both Wan Guochun and Song Xiangdong were men who dedicated themselves to the country.
"I’ve been arranged this way all along. Why do you think those four boys are able to stay by Lin Beichen’s side?"
Song Xiangdong looked at Wan Guochun helplessly. Whenever it involved military matters, Wan Guochun was incredibly sharp. But in other matters, he seemed somewhat clueless.
After hearing Song Xiangdong’s explanation, a look of sudden realization flashed across Wan Guochun’s face.
"So that’s how it is."
"You should be proud. The four people Lin Beichen chose all come from your Dragon Army."
There was a hint of sourness in Song Xiangdong’s words, as he had also selected a few elites from the Security Bureau to join the training.
None of the elites he picked impressed Lin Beichen. However, the ones Lin Beichen chose were all from the Dragon Army.
It’s hard to say that Song Xiangdong wasn’t a bit bitter about it, though he didn’t show it much.
"If they’re that good, let’s share them. We can work together."
Song Xiangdong didn’t respond to Wan Guochun’s suggestion, giving him a big eye roll instead.
If looks could kill, Wan Guochun would’ve been dismembered a thousand times over.
At this moment, Lin Beichen’s car had already returned to Imperial Capital University.
Entering the university, Lin Beichen immediately took out his phone and reported his safe return to Hao Jianhua.
Once confirmed that Lin Beichen was safely back, Hao Jianhua was able to relax.
"This kid better graduate soon, or I’ll lose ten years of my life."
After hanging up the phone, Hao Jianhua sighed helplessly.
Lin Beichen hadn’t realized that due to his actions, Imperial Capital University was now filled with Security Bureau and Dragon Army personnel. 𝘧𝓇ℯ𝑒𝓌𝑒𝑏𝓃𝘰𝘷𝘦𝘭.𝒸ℴ𝓂
Of course, all these changes occurred ten minutes ago when Hao Jianhua received a call from the Minister of Education, notifying him that the Security Bureau and the military would take over the university’s security.
Even a fool could guess that this was because of Lin Beichen. Let alone, Hao Jianhua wasn’t a fool.
When Lin Beichen arrived at his dormitory building, he saw Dongchuan Ichiro standing at the entrance with a smile.
"You’re not waiting for me here, are you?"
Lin Beichen knew Dongchuan Ichiro was indeed waiting for him, but he didn’t know why.
"Or were you planning to make peace with me?"
Brooklyn had been made a cripple for life by him. If Dongchuan Ichiro wanted to fight him again, he’d have to do it alone.
Lin Beichen did not believe that Dongchuan Ichiro would be so foolish as to act recklessly out of anger.
"I do have something to talk to you about, and it could be considered a peace offering, but there’s another word to add to it."
Dongchuan Ichiro’s lips curled into a smile, which Lin Beichen ignored.
"What do you want?"
Lin Beichen asked impatiently.
"I just want to cooperate with you."
...
...
The sudden silence was the scariest. The previously noisy dormitory entrance became so quiet that Lin Beichen felt he could hear a pin drop, as if time around them had stopped.
"Did I hear you right? You want to cooperate with me?"
It wasn’t surprising that Lin Beichen reacted this way. If anyone else proposed cooperation, Lin Beichen wouldn’t be so shocked.
Dongchuan Ichiro proposing cooperation felt like a lamb walking into a lion’s den.
Dongchuan Ichiro wasn’t an idiot. He knew people from the Dragon Country didn’t have a good impression of his country.
Yet, in this situation, he still dared to approach Lin Beichen for cooperation. Two thoughts crossed Lin Beichen’s mind.
The first thought was that Dongchuan Ichiro had some scheme and wanted to use this cooperation to bring him down.
The second thought was that Dongchuan Ichiro truly faced some problem needing Lin Beichen’s help. Regardless of the reason, Lin Beichen wouldn’t agree.
"Don’t be so quick to refuse. Hear what I have to say first."
Dongchuan Ichiro seemed to see through Lin Beichen’s thoughts and spoke before he could refuse.
Lin Beichen, who initially wanted to refuse directly, suddenly paused, curious about what could make the other party swallow their pride and ask for his help.
"You probably know that I am not the true first heir in my family. Soon, our family will hold a successor conference to determine the true heir of the Dongchuan Clan."
Lin Beichen knew what Dongchuan Ichiro was talking about, but what did it have to do with him seeking help?
"To be honest, securing the heir position is not easy, so I need your help."
As he spoke, Dongchuan Ichiro stared intently at Lin Beichen’s face. Lin Beichen saw a look of... sincerity in his eyes.
"But what benefit is there for me? Who becomes the heir of your family has nothing to do with me."
