Luo Kaiyan sat in the first row. Sensing the gazes of others, he felt the pressure in his heart mount significantly. In the past, whenever he collaborated with Wang Yueshu, he had assumed her confidence in standing up to the Yangtze Company stemmed solely from the backing of the Garrison Headquarters. Who could have imagined that after more than two years apart, this woman would possess an even more imposing aura?
Most people hadn't caught the implication in Wang Yueshu’s words, but he had heard them loud and clear: while they could come to her for help when in trouble, they, in turn, would naturally be expected to help her when she was in trouble. If they chose to back out, the tens of thousands of troops stationed in Beiping City were not to be trifled with.
Luo Kaiyan stood up, struggling to pull off an awkward smile as he said, "Director Wang, we are old acquaintances. If there is any difficulty, we will certainly help."
