Mo Mingyi heard them mention the missing king of his country and got puzzled.
“Madam Kastra, what’s wrong with our missing king?”
‘Why does he suddenly mention this and involve Colonel He’s wife?’
He looked at He Jingyan, who had a dangerous expression.
“Don’t worry. I have a hunch that Colonel He might know your missing king,” Kastra replied with a tender smile.
His words shocked Mo Mingyi, who widened his eyes; he said to He Jingyan, “Colonel He, do you know our missing king? Where is he? Is he alive? Can you take me to see His Majesty?”
He was extremely anxious, not knowing what to do.
He Jingyan did not reply, only looking at Kastra coldly.
Kastra didn’t say anything. The soldier came back to the tent with a few photos in his hand.
Kastra raised his chin, beckoning him to give the photos to He Jingyan.
The soldier nodded and strode towards He Jingyan.
He Jingyan grabbed the photos, clutching at them when he saw the people on the photos.
These were photos of Xu Jing and Gong Cheng. Some of them were of Xu Yangyi at the Xu House.
“Colonel He, now you know that I didn’t lie to you. Can we talk about the deal?”
He Jingyan hated the smile on Kastra’s face.
“If you asked me sincerely to help Country C, I might agree straight away, but you made a dumb move to threaten me.”
He Jingyan crumpled the photos and tossed them at the feet of Kastra with undisguised anger.
Kastra was startled. He didn’t expect He Jingyan to say that.
His eyes darkened and his imposing air vanished. He didn’t want to take the despicable means, but He Jingyan was too powerful for him to control, so he could only use these evidences to threaten He Jingyan.
He took a deep breath regretfully and said, “I’m sorry.” He looked upset as if he regretted doing that.
“I don’t know how to keep you in Country C, but Country C cannot afford to fail again. No, we’ve already failed…”
He was not overbearing anymore. He looked like a pathetic man who was worried about the life and death of his country.
“I’m sorry for upsetting you. It was my fault. I won’t make things difficult for you. I’ll ask Leo to walk you out.”
He knew that He Jingyan would not help him in such a situation.
He shouldn’t have threatened He Jingyan with Xu Yangyi’s identity. If he hadn’t done that, He Jingyan might have helped his country.
“Leo, take Colonel He back.”
Although Leo stayed outside the tent and did not know what had happened, he knew they hadn’t discussed the cooperation yet.
“But Madam, what about the cooperation? What about our country? Do we still have hopes?”
Leo was so anxious that he was about to cry. He thought that after Xu Yangyi and He Jingyan came over, their country would be saved, but now nothing happened.
“I will find another way. Please take them back.”
Leo knew that no one but only He Jingyan could help them. He cried and wouldn’t move.
“Are you still the Madam of this country? Loser.”
Xu Yangyi suddenly opened his eyes and cursed. He had been listening to them and couldn’t stand it anymore.
“I want to find a place to sleep. Leo, lead the way.”
He got up from the He Jingyan’s arms and strode out of the tent.
