Urban Super Soldier King
Chapter 1960 - 2061: Contacting Number One
"No problem," Sun Bo said decisively.
He made a phone call, and within a few minutes, someone walked in.
"Prepare an anti-eavesdropping phone for me, a high-spec version, and send it over right now," Sun Bo said.
The person quickly responded and left. Their company now had branches all over the country, especially several in the capital.
"Is the phone reliable?" Xiang Yu asked.
"The phone used by Number One is provided by us, and it’s patented by our company’s researchers, which has been highly praised by the national leaders," Sun Bo said proudly.
Xiang Yu never inquired about business matters, so he knew very little about the company’s current development. If he had known they had such advanced products, he would have changed his phone long ago.
"Brother Yu, Number One is surrounded by many guards. It’s not easy to get close to him," Sun Bo reminded.
Sun Bo didn’t know what Xiang Yu was planning but was concerned that Xiang Yu might harm Number One.
Number One is a prominent figure in China, and no Chinese would want to see their leader harmed.
Sun Yu feels the same way, with a strong sense of patriotism.
"Don’t worry, I won’t do anything rash," Xiang Yu understood Sun Bo’s concerns.
Sun Bo quickly nodded and then explained the company’s development over that period.
Recently, Long Wu hadn’t been around, and Sun Bo arranged for Lan Tingting to oversee things.
Xiang Yu was taken aback when he heard this. He had met Lan Tingting when he first came to the city; he knew that Lan Tingting still had feelings for him.
"Brother Yu, now that you’re back, do you want to meet Sister Tingting? You haven’t seen her in a long time, and she’s been thinking about you," Sun Bo suggested.
Xiang Yu thought for a moment and shook his head, "Maybe not."
After all, what Xiang Yu is currently undertaking is extremely risky, and he can’t promise the other person happiness.
Sun Bo understood Xiang Yu’s thoughts; he wanted to say something but ultimately kept it to himself.
"How is Zhong Qin doing now?" Xiang Yu asked.
"I visited her a few days ago, and she’s doing well. She’s become much more cheerful and is gradually adapting to society," Sun Bo said.
Zhong Qin is Zhong Min’s sister and now runs a library, which is relatively simple.
"Take good care of her and don’t let her get hurt," Xiang Yu said.
Xiang Yu felt guilty towards these women, not knowing when he could complete all his tasks and bring them all together to enjoy time together.
Around noon, someone handed Sun Bo a phone. It looked no different from the outside but was equipped with special software that automatically disconnects if someone tries to eavesdrop.
"Brother Yu, you can use this phone without any worries. There won’t be any issues," Sun Bo said confidently.
Xiang Yu curiously examined the phone from all angles before inserting the SIM card. 𝘧𝘳𝘦ℯ𝓌𝘦𝒷𝘯𝑜𝑣𝘦𝓁.𝒸𝘰𝓂
Seeing Xiang Yu intending to make a call, Sun Bo quickly got up to step aside, not wanting to know what he shouldn’t.
"It’s okay," Xiang Yu gestured for him to sit down.
The call was connected, but the other party hung up again.
"Brother Yu, who did you call?" Sun Bo asked.
"Number One, he should be busy right now," Xiang Yu said.
Sun Bo: "..."
Few people can reach Number One by phone, or even if they do, it’s unlikely anyone would answer.
Now Xiang Yu said he directly called Number One, which surprised Sun Bo. He had been notable in China for quite some time, yet it was difficult for him to meet Number One, let alone make a phone call.
If he had called Number One, he’d probably end up on a blacklist.
"You probably don’t know, but Number One is currently busy meeting foreign guests, as reported in the news," Sun Bo checked the time and then turned on the TV.
On TV, Number One was seen warmly shaking hands with a foreign leader.
"Wait a bit," Xiang Yu leaned back and said.
Sun Bo held back but eventually couldn’t resist asking, "Brother Yu, if you really want to see Number One, I can take you there."
"How about you accompany me on a stroll this afternoon, and we’ll talk about it tonight," Xiang Yu said.
Sun Bo quickly nodded and went outside to drive. Fortunately, he dressed plainly; if others recognized that the president of Yuran Group was driving for someone else, the business world would be in an uproar.
Sun Bo took Xiang Yu around the city. The rapid development of the city amazed Xiang Yu, especially the growth of Yuran Group. If you don’t see it in person, it’s hard to imagine how large the group was, and this was only one branch.
"Brother Yu, how’s the company’s development? Not bad, right?" Sun Bo said proudly.
Xiang Yu had been a benefactor to him, and everything here belonged to Xiang Yu; Sun Bo wanted to repay Xiang Yu with his actions.
After circling the city, it was already eight o’clock in the evening. They grabbed a bite to eat before heading to the hotel.
As they arrived at the hotel, Xiang Yu’s phone rang, displaying an unfamiliar number without showing the region.
The call connected. Xiang Yu held the phone to his ear for a while without speaking; the other end remained silent, as if waiting for something.
"Brother Yu..." Sun Bo called out in puzzlement upon seeing Xiang Yu not speaking.
Xiang Yu quickly stopped him, saying, "I’m Xiang Yu, may I know who you are?"
"It’s really you. Is the phone secure?" The voice on the other end finally couldn’t hold back upon hearing Xiang Yu’s voice.
Sun Bo stood aside, stunned, because he recognized the voice on the phone as Number One’s.
Number One is China’s leader; Sun Bo never imagined Number One would actively call someone.
"Don’t worry, the phone has undergone professional processing; no one will eavesdrop," Xiang Yu said confidently.
"That’s good; be careful out there," Number One said with concern.
"I’m in China; do you have time? I’d like to meet you," Xiang Yu asked.
Sun Bo beside him was even more stunned. He’d never heard of any connection between Xiang Yu and Number One.
In his view, Xiang Yu’s connections in China were not better than his, but now it seems that wasn’t the case.
"What, you’re back? How did you get here?" Number One said with slight surprise but quickly regained composure.
"I came via the back roads; there’s something important to report to you," Xiang Yu said straightforwardly.
"Listen to my call, and I’ll arrange when I have time," Number One said briefly.
"Okay, I’m waiting for you in China." Xiang Yu finished speaking and hung up the phone.
Sun Bo, at this moment, looked at Xiang Yu blankly, then took Xiang Yu’s phone to check. The phone number seemed unfamiliar to him.
"Brother Yu, did you call China’s Number One?" Sun Bo asked, his mouth half open.
Xiang Yu simply smiled and patted Sun Bo’s shoulder, standing up, saying, "There’s nothing to be surprised about; he’s just human too."
