Chapter 1507: 1506 stays alone

Gand did not rush; he agreed with the time Tan Rou suggested, “I hope that when we meet again, Miss Zhuang Rou can give a satisfying answer.”

Tan Rou smiled faintly, “Of course.”

After the performance ended, Gand began today’s meeting. The procedure was rather simple: he first talked about the philosophy of the Dawn Society, then the current situation of the society, and finally, he assigned tasks.

It turned out that not all of the people who came today were members from the royal city; only about a dozen were from the royal city, while the rest were from other places. However, unlike the members from the royal city—who met every three days—these members met every half a month.

From this meeting, Tan Rou and Samiyi did not gain much useful information, but they saw the wealth and technological strength of the Dawn Society. If the Dawn Society were allowed to continue developing, the royal family’s rule could be endangered.

“Today’s gathering will end here, and let’s recite our slogan once again!” Gand announced, “And before leaving, I would like to ask a few members of the Dawn Society to stay behind.”

...

“He’s not going to ask you to stay again, is he?” Taking advantage of the slogan recitation, Samiyi whispered into Tan Rou’s ear, “If he asks you to stay again, I will smash this place.”

Tan Rou laughed and cried at the same time, “Calm down, I haven’t been hurt.”

Samiyi said sadly, “You are my friend; I should protect you, but now I can do nothing.”

Tan Rou patted Samiyi on the shoulder and said softly, “It’s okay. Since I’ve decided to help you, I won’t hesitate. Don’t worry, I can protect myself. You also saw today that I wasn’t the one embarrassed on stage.”

When Samiyi heard Tan Rou mention the stage incident, she couldn’t help but laugh and asked, “When you were on stage today, did you ever think of blowing his head off with a shot?”

Tan Rou raised an eyebrow and countered, “What do you think?”

If they weren’t here today, but in a place where escape was convenient, or if this incident happened in the royal palace, Tan Rou would never let Gand leave unscathed.

Even if she didn’t blow his head off, she would have to shoot a hole in him. Gand must have thought his life was too long to dare to make her perform marksmanship.

The slogan was quickly finished, and Gand read out the names of those who needed to stay behind. He called them out one by one, naming a few minor leaders not from the royal city, and the last one was Tan Rou.

“Miss Zhuang Rou, I must trouble you to stay a little longer, I have something to say to you,” Gand said very politely.

Samiyi demanded, “If you want my friend to stay, then I must stay too. I’m not comfortable with her being here alone.”

Gand nodded slightly, “Sally can stay as well, but you cannot join the following meeting. You will meet your friend after our meeting is over.”

Samiyi knew Gand would not allow her to join the smaller meeting, so she agreed to Gand’s arrangement, “Fine, I will wait for her outside.”

After everyone had left, Gand took Tan Rou and a few others to the study to discuss matters, while Samiyi waited in the living room for Tan Rou.

Samiyi cautioned Tan Rou, “Don’t agree to their impolite requests. If you are in danger, you can shout for me, and I will definitely come to rescue you.”

Tan Rou didn’t really need Samiyi to rescue her with her abilities, but she still accepted her friend’s kindness, “Okay, I got it.”

Tan Rou followed Gand into the study and noticed that Gand’s study was quite simple, without many precious decorations, nor dazzling lights; it was just an ordinary study.

“You should know why I wanted you to stay behind separately, don’t you?” Gand asked.

Everyone else answered, except for Tan Rou, who remained silent.

“Miss Zhuang Rou, do you know why I did not let your friend join us?” Gand asked Tan Rou specifically.

Tan Rou wanted to continue pretending she didn’t understand, but Gand used commonly known words, so she could only reply, “I don’t know.”

Gand smiled faintly, “Because I noticed that you speak the language of J country very well, and you do not need your friend to translate for you. Unlike your friend, she probably does not speak your country’s language, does she?”

A jolt went through Tan Rou’s heart, what strong observational skills this man had!
