Chapter 379 Cao Shaolin Extra 3

All his subordinates and those around him were Cao Ying's spies. After seeing his methods, Skechers also honestly helped Cao Ying with his work.

If Cao Ying hadn't been so arrogant, he wouldn't have been defeated so quickly!

Cao Shaolin had a fickle temperament since childhood, so Cao Ying only told him the general idea until he was about to be doomed and was worried that his only hope would be destroyed by his opponent.

Cao Ying told Cao Shaolin everything and asked him to leave the country with his money and people and go to France.

Cao Shaolin did it without hesitation because he knew it was the key to reviving the Cao family.

After arriving in France, Cao Shaolin will take over Skechers' arms business.

He was not unfamiliar with this industry. After all, he was also responsible for purchasing military supplies for Cao's army.

However, this mission is not easy, and he needs to face various complex situations and competitors.

Just after he boarded the ship heading abroad, an unexpected surprise came - Tong Yin appeared in front of him.

He originally thought that the bird that flew out of the cage had disappeared without a trace, but he didn't expect that she would appear in his sight again.

This time, Cao Shaolin was determined not to let Tong Yin fly away from his palm no matter what.

He knew that Tong Yin was afraid of his original appearance, but that was not a big problem. He could change himself so that she would no longer be afraid.

At this time, Cao Shaolin was sitting in a luxurious office, carefully studying the information about the arms business in his hands.

His eyes were deep and focused, as if he could see through these documents to the business opportunities and risks hidden behind them.

Suddenly, one of his subordinates hurried into the office, a trace of anxiety on his face: "Boss, there's news that some forces in China have also set their sights on Skechers."

Cao Shaolin frowned slightly. He obviously did not expect that his domestic opponents would take action so quickly.

He pondered for a moment, then said decisively: "Keep a close eye on their movements, and have Skechers be careful not to reveal his identity. If necessary..."

Ever since taking over Skechers' arms business, Cao Shaolin has been making secret plans.

Not only did he send people to contact his opponent's enemies, he also provided them with weapons and supplies in order to weaken his opponent's strength.

It now appears that his plan needs to be further strengthened to meet the challenges of domestic forces.

……

After Tong Yin and Ai Li finished chatting about the direction of writing in a pleasant atmosphere, time quietly came to the afternoon.

So, the two decided to enjoy a leisurely afternoon tea together.

Although Ellie was not very accustomed to Chinese tea, her eyes immediately lit up when she saw the exquisite pastries on the table.

Not only are these pastries unique in shape, but each one looks like a piece of exquisite work of art.

Ellie carefully picked up a translucent flower-shaped pastry from the plate and examined it carefully. She couldn't help but exclaim, "This is amazing! How did they make it?"

Through the translucent crust, you can clearly see the color of the filling inside, which makes people salivate. Ellie took a light bite, and the pastry had a delicate texture and the sweet taste spread in her mouth, making her intoxicated.

"This is simply a work of art!" Ellie couldn't help but exclaim again, deeply admiring the craftsmanship of Chinese pastries.

"If you like, I can give you the address of the store!" Tong Yin said with a smile.

The owners of the shop are a couple from China. Due to the unstable domestic environment, they brought their whole family across the ocean to a foreign country.

The children were sent to nearby schools, and the two took all their property with them, but they couldn't just live off it.

Fortunately, the male owner of the house was a pastry chef when he was young...

In this way, the couple opened a small pastry shop.

Cao Shaolin passed by on his way home from get off work and brought back some pastries. Tong Yin liked them very much and became a regular there.

"Please tell me. I want to bring this exquisite pastry back for my children to taste!" Ellie ate a piece of pastry and took a sip of tea. "Wow, these two things are wonderful when eaten together..."

The two continued chatting for a while, and then Ellie took the note with the address of the pastry shop and left.

Tong Yin slowly closed the door, as if shutting out all the noise and chaos from the outside world.

She walked lightly back to the rocking chair and sat down.

This rocking chair has been with her for a long time, and it has witnessed Tong Yin's countless times of contemplation and meditation.

However, at this moment, she felt an indescribable sense of unreality about her current life.

This feeling of confusion intensified when she was alone.

She often wondered if this kind of life was really what she expected.

Where will her future go?

Xiao Liuzi's learning ability is relatively poor, but fortunately, Tong Yin is there to patiently tutor and help him.

After unremitting efforts, Xiao Liuzi finally learned a foreign language and successfully completed his studies.

During this process, Xiao Liuzi got to know some progressive young people in the country.

Their thoughts were like a clear spring, nourishing Xiao Liuzi's originally dry heart.

Gradually, Xiao Liuzi's thoughts changed. He was no longer the muddle-headed and drifting Xiao Liuzi, but had his own goals and ideals.

The progressive young people, full of passion, resolutely left their hometowns and went to foreign countries just to learn advanced foreign knowledge.

They firmly believe that only by mastering this knowledge can they pass it on to more people after returning home and contribute their own strength to the development of the motherland.

A year ago, Xiao Liuzi and many aspiring young people embarked on a journey back home.

At that time, he asked Tong Yin if he was willing to return to China with him.

However, Tong Yin did not have much nostalgia for his country, especially after learning that Zhang Muzhi had been betrayed by a traitor and sacrificed.

She was even more disappointed...

Despite this, Tong Yin did not feel that life abroad was particularly good.

She felt like she was being swept forward by the torrent of life, always in a state of confusion, and could only passively follow the pace of life and move forward step by step.

"Yinyin, I'm going to realize my father's dream!" Xiao Liuzi's voice echoed in the air. He smiled and waved goodbye to Tong Yin.

Deep in his eyes, there were tears and unshakable determination.

Tong Yin stared at Xiao Liuzi's figure walking away, and an indescribable feeling surged in his heart.

It was a kind of shame and embarrassment, as if Xiao Liuzi's gaze could penetrate her soul and reveal the fragility and anxiety deep in her heart.

At that moment, Xiao Liuzi's originally thin figure seemed to suddenly become taller, and his back looked particularly upright under the sunlight.

In comparison, Tong Yin felt that he was as small as dust.

Tong Yin's life seems peaceful and prosperous. She has a considerate family, a career she excels in, and warm and friendly interactions with her neighbors.

However, despite this, the look in Xiao Liuzi's eyes when he left always lingered in her heart, and she could not forget it.

Ellie's visit today gave Tong Yin an epiphany.

This kind of life is not what she wants!

She still prefers following Zhang Muzhi to fight for the liberation of Goose City.

She still wanted to take the gun and deal with those blood-sucking parasites with her own hands!
