Chapter 185
Among the many general directors of Liukasao, there are four who are in high positions and are not on the same level as others. Among them, the general director of the Political Department, Ma Pu, and the general director of the Fighting Department, Yin Mu, are the most familiar to the public because they often appear in various news programs. The general director of the Supervisory Department, Tao De, is much less well-known. Most ordinary people only know his name but not his appearance.
The head of the Intelligence Department, Davalo, was even more hidden, and many people didn't even know the existence of this department. But for the powerful people in Liukasao, this name was well-known. If Todd of the Supervision Department was a sharp butcher knife that would draw blood as soon as it was unsheathed, then Davalo of the Intelligence Department was an invisible poison needle that could kill people silently.
She knows what time you get up, what time you go to bed, who you meet, and what you say; she knows everyone's deepest secrets, and knows your weaknesses and desires better than you do, but no one can see through her thoughts; she can make people lose their jobs and lives with just one sentence, and can easily destroy everything a person has - reputation, property, status, pride, and feelings; she is like a ghost on the top of the Liukasao, many people don't even know what she looks like, but her shadow is vaguely behind many things. Some people who know Davalo fear her more than they fear Todd.
Rong Yuan looked up. He knew that this woman had become the Director General of the Intelligence Department more than 30 years ago, and was actually 68 years old. But the skin of the woman sitting in front of him was as white and tender as a teenage girl, without any fine lines. Her black hair was over her shoulders, scattered messily behind her back, revealing a smooth and full forehead; she looked like a woman in her twenties, with red lips and white teeth, a beautiful face, and a pair of charming eyes under her long eyelashes, which was very moving.
She was wearing a loose white shirt, and except for a pair of large gold earrings, she had no other accessories on her body. Her gorgeousness and beauty were the best decoration; her temperament did not have the naivety and innocence of a young girl, but instead had a kind of vicissitudes and maturity that came from having experienced all kinds of life. She exuded a charming and elegant style from the inside out, and had a unique charm.
In front of such a woman, even if they know how dangerous she is, most men will probably make excuses for her unconsciously. As long as she gives them a look, many people will talk endlessly about all their secrets, just hoping to get a look of surprise or admiration from her.
At this moment, she was sitting in front of Rong Yuan, looking at him with a pair of eyes full of affection, looking at him with both affection and indifference, her eyes were misty and there was a smile at the corners of her lips.
Rong Yuan blinked, knowing that he should not know her now, and should show an expression of obsession, nervousness or shyness as she expected, but he was not good at this. After a moment of silence, Rong Yuan only said: "Don't mind, please."
After saying that, he turned his attention to the lunch which was at just the right temperature.
His reaction was beyond Davalo's expectations. In the past, even the most dull and stubborn people would be different in front of her. But the [Muzhe] in front of him, except for a few more glances at the beginning, his eyes, expression, breathing, heartbeat, all did not change at all. It was as if the person who suddenly appeared in front of him was not a beautiful woman, but a stone.
Davalo chuckled with interest. She would not have boring emotions like "This person is really different, bad, I seem to be a little moved" just because others are not interested in her, but the unusual reaction naturally means that the person in front of her is unusual.
Maybe he is not interested in women at all, maybe he has some physical defect that makes his body unable to produce love molecules such as dopamine, or maybe... it is because this man has a heart and willpower comparable to steel, can completely control his emotions, and will not be shaken to any extent by beauty.
Davalo was thinking about it idly, and gave up the previous plan of [seducing first and then inducing, and if it suits her, she will be pushed down and become a captive under her skirt], leaning forward, approaching Rong Yuan, and said with a sweet breath: "Brother Azhe, do you want to know... who your biological father is?"
Rong Yuan, who was about to eat, looked at her again and said, "I don't want to."
First of all, he is not Muzhe.
Second, he already knew the identity of Muzhe's father.
Davalo's smile froze for a moment, then he said with a smile: "What a child's words. Do you blame him for abandoning you and your son? But you have to know that you are no longer a child, and your mother is old. In the face of life, some unnecessary pride and things must be put down when the time comes. Your father is a big shot in Liukasiao - Bailiyun, the chief of the maintenance department. As long as he is willing to recognize your identity, you and your mother can immediately move to the seventeenth floor and live a life of luxury. I promise that it will be happier than you can imagine."
Her slender and soft fingers gently slid across the back of Rongyuan's hand, stopped at his wrist, made a small circle, and whispered: "And I can help you find your ancestry."
She had a gentle look, and her eyes looking up from below were like a deep whirlpool, and her low and slightly hoarse voice was like a witch luring people into hell.
Rong Yuan's pocket moved slightly. He sensed that Wandou was so angry at Davalo's actions that his cheeks were puffed up. His little fists were clenched tightly, and his round eyes glared at Davalo angrily through his clothes.
Rong Yuan couldn't help but chuckle. When Davalo thought he was already moved, he took his hand back and wiped it with the towel beside him. He said, "My current job has a good salary and benefits. Even if I rely on myself, I can provide a good life for my family. There is no need to pursue things that don't belong to me. What's more, I don't even know who you are. Why should I believe your nonsense?"
Rong Yuan said this sincerely. He put himself in Muzhe's shoes. If he really encountered such a situation, this is what he would say.
You should only take what you can. If you force yourself to have something that does not belong to you, give up your current stable and happy life for money, and throw yourself into a strange vortex of power, the final result is that you will only be lucky enough to get out of it unscathed. Some people may be able to win a richer life for themselves, but they will inevitably lose something extremely precious.
But Davalo, who was used to seeing people scrambling for money, brothers killing each other, and fathers and sons turning against each other, did not believe in sincerity, nor did she believe that the common people at the bottom of society could remain unmoved by such temptation. Rong Yuan's words took on a different meaning in her ears.
First, he hinted at his identity as a member of the Supervisory Department, saying that if Davalo dared to deceive or use him, he would never have a good ending.
Second, he wanted to confirm Davalo's identity and ability to prove that she was not just talking nonsense, but could really find out Muzhe's life experience and then had the ability to do what she promised.
In addition, he also emphasized "his own things", that is, he demanded that he should not acknowledge his relationship privately and then be dismissed by his biological father with a few trivial things, but that his identity should be publicly acknowledged and he should obtain the inheritance rights legitimately.
Davalo smiled meaningfully. She was not afraid of "Muzhe"'s greed, but was afraid that he was just as selfless as he said. Moreover, the smarter and more difficult "Muzhe" was, the more valuable it was to win him over. She was not angry, but happy about it.
She smiled, stood up , adjusted her hair, and said, "You don't need to know who I am now, but I will soon let you see my power. I am glad to meet you today, and I hope that our conversation will be more pleasant next time we meet."
"Oh, by the way." Davalo, who had just taken two steps out, suddenly turned back, raised a finger to his lips, and said with a smile: "Don't tell your new colleagues about what happened today! This is a secret between the two of us."
She came and left like a gust of wind, and paid the bill for Rong Yuan, leaving behind only a gust of fragrance and secrets.
Rong Yuan, who knew her secret, was finally able to finish his lunch quietly this time, and no one disturbed him. He knew why Davalo came to him, because the inspectors of the Supervision Department over the years were all trained from childhood, most of them were orphans adopted from various levels, and some were children and relatives of the previous inspectors. He was an outsider who joined the Supervision Department as an exception, and even if he had the title of saving the chief inspector of the Supervision Department, it still seemed abrupt.
Moreover, the inspectors of the Supervision Department were all loyal to Todd and would rather die than betray any of his secrets. Todd built the entire Supervision Department like an airtight fortress. Rong Yuan's joining was like installing a brick that didn't fit in the side of the fortress, which naturally became a breakthrough in the eyes of some people who wanted to investigate the Supervision Department in depth.
However, Rong Yuan did not think that an ordinary Sijian who came from a low-class background, had ordinary abilities, was a young boy, and got lucky by chance was worthy of Davalo's personal intervention. She was considering him as a person she respected by sending one of her more senior spies.
So there may be other reasons.
Was Todd exposed somewhere?
Or... did Xi Yanxin tell others about his treatment for her?
Rong Yuan thought of the brilliant soul he saw that day and shook his head.
Relatively speaking, he was more willing to believe in Xi Yanxin's character. Moreover, Taode was not an actor with perfect acting skills. He would have to make some preparations for the action in a few days. It was normal for someone to find out.
But if Davalo... or someone behind her starts to doubt Todd, that would also be a bad situation, as it would mean that the general directorate meeting in a few days might produce unexpected changes.
