"Hey, Gu Ju. Lin Zhuo is feeling quite relaxed, almost a bit lazy."
"Uh, Lin Zhuo, do you have time to come to the bureau?"
"Gu Dad, you must be feeling sorry for the kids. I haven't had a break in three months. Can you let me off the hook?"
"Ah, I know you're working hard, but I really can't handle this anymore. The leaders at the National Security Bureau have called countless times wanting to see your sister. They've exhausted every possible reason! Gu Zhenhua is stingy, but he treats his subordinates well."
Lin Zhuo instinctively glanced at Yan Kongyue.
Yan Kongyue nodded. "It's time to meet them!"
"Cough, cough, Gu Dad, I still have to say this: my sister is just a little girl. She can handle ghosts without any problem, but she's very innocent. My grandfather had a hard time getting a granddaughter; he cherishes her and is just afraid she might get bullied. Bringing up my grandfather is definitely the right move."
He knew that the leaders wouldn't make things difficult for Yan Kongyue; his concern was about those people from the Seventh Bureau. Leaders have seen all kinds of people; anyone who can reach that position is no fool. Lin Zhuo’s words were certainly understood by them.
Gu Zhenhua twitched his mouth in thought: "Still calling her a little girl? With everything that's happened recently, which of those incidents could a little girl handle?"
He glanced at the person beside him and saw them nodding. Gu Zhenhua felt more confident. "Lin Zhuo, don't worry; everything you're concerned about won't happen. Gu Dad guarantees it."
The National Security Bureau values Yan Kongyue's abilities, and the Lin Family is a major taxpayer—donating to the bureau and building facilities while also engaging in charity work every year. Even if it's just for the Lin Family's reputation, they wouldn't let a little girl be bullied on their turf.
"Alright, with your assurance, I've informed my grandfather! If someone really dares to overstep their bounds, the Lin Family won't stand for it!" Lin Zhuo said softly but firmly.
"No problem! I'll have the big leader give your grandfather a call later. Should I arrange a time for us to meet now?"
"Sure! You set the time and let me know!"
"Alright!" Gu Zhenhua hung up the phone and let out a long sigh. "Why do I always feel like this brat has me under control?"
"How did it go? Did you get an agreement?"
"Liao Minister, you set the time!"
Liao Zhen slapped the armrest of the sofa. "Zhenhua, you've done a great job! We must secure this little girl. Just her umbrella alone is a rare treasure! And that thing—what was it called? Oh right, Po Soul Nail—it's incredible! You saw the video; it looks like something out of a movie."
"Yes, yes, Minister. Do you think she would agree to join the Seventh Bureau?"
"Whether she joins or not doesn't matter much. You've seen how those Bai Family brats behave; Lin Zhuo's concerns aren't unfounded. After all, that girl is still young; ability is one thing, but we can't overlook people's hearts!"
The Bai Family knows what they're doing; how could they not see through it? However, there aren't many people available for official use right now. Once there's someone who can replace the Bai Family, they certainly wouldn't want to take that risk.
"Yan Kongyue, if someone really bullies you, don't worry about the Lin Family—just do what needs to be done. Even if we can't handle it ourselves, there's still the Lin Family."
"Mm!" Yan Kongyue smiled warmly, feeling comforted inside. It turns out that being protected feels like this.
Heavenly Dao: This troublesome child, have you forgotten how your father protected you?
Yan Kongyue: Hmph, we will settle the three hundred years of accounts with Difu slowly.
