Zhou Ming, you're really messing around! How can you go to Iraq? There's going to be a war there soon, and as you said yourself, the Americans will drop tons of bombs on the targets they want to hit into ruins. Guns don't discriminate, how can you go to a place like that just to convince a complete stranger to join the resistance?'
'Yes, Ming, this is really very dangerous. Although I understand the reasons you give, I really, really don't want you to risk your life. Because if you get hurt in any way, I don't know what I'll do for the rest of my life! If you really care about the situation in Brighton, I can also ask the Down family to come and help you. You may not know it, but I know that the Down family is actually a very powerful family. They are not weaker than the Rockefellers, whether in terms of money or other resources. So there is really no need for you to go to Iraq and risk your life!'
In his villa, Zhou Ming sat on the sofa in the Ke Hall, as Lin Muqing and Tang Ran bombarded him with persuasion from left and right, leaving him both moved and helpless.
He was moved because they were genuinely concerned about him, but also helpless because he had already been bombarded with these words of advice for a long time. Ever since they left the private dining room at Sanella . On the way back to the villa, Lin Muqing kept on scolding Zhou Ming for messing up and asking him to change his mind and not go to Iraq, but Zhou Ming's attitude of being open-minded and refusing to correct himself made her feel crazy.
So after returning to the villa, Lin Muqing immediately told Tang Ran about Zhou Ming's decision to go to Iraq. Unlike Lin Muqing, she was not calm and immediately exploded when she heard the news. Then she and Lin Muqing worked together to persuade Zhou Ming.
Although she knew that Lin Muqing and Tang Ran were both thinking about their own safety, Ming Zhou was still annoyed by their back-and-forth.
'Okay, Muqing and Ran, I know you're both worried about me, and I understand that the situation in the Middle East is very chaotic and could erupt into war at any time. But no matter what, I still have to go; because if I don't go, the Iraqi emperor will not dare to join forces with the United States. But if I go, at least I have a chance to convince him not to do so, don't I?'
Seeing that Lin Muqing and Tang Ran were about to say something, Zhou Ming immediately continued, 'What I'm talking about is a degree of diligence. I often tell you that no matter how impossible something is, as long as you do it, there is a chance of success. But if you don't do it, there is no chance at all.'
'For me, Brighton is still very important. If I fail to seize this opportunity to defeat the alliance between Adams and Rockefeller, I will not be able to rise further.'
Zhou Ming then turned to Lin Muqing: 'On this point, I think today's attitude of Edward and LU Yi towards me speaks for itself. If they didn't think I was capable of helping them turn the tables, do you think they would have listened to me so obediently? Maybe it's hard to see the point right now, but this will become a thorn in their side, and it will be much easier to form alliances or whatever in the future.'
'I understand what you're saying, Zhou Ming, but that doesn't mean you have to take risks in places like Iraq. Just now, Ranran said that we could use the power of the Down family. Can't we do it a different way?' Lin Muqing advised with a heavy heart.
'Muchen, I think I made this very clear on the bus before. For a family like the Addamses, you have to slap him in the face to take the crown off his head!'
Zhou Ming said very domineeringly, and then he continued, 'However, Ranran is only the future leader of the Down's family, and he cannot move too many resources of the family. Even if he can do something about this matter, it will not help much, because we are the fight with the Adams family is not simply a fight about who can come up with the most money. We need to find a key point and then break through that point to complete the reversal of the entire situation.'
'Then the impending Gulf War is precisely such a critical point that we must find a way to resolve it!' Zhou Ming concluded.
'So after all that, you still want to say that you are definitely going to Iraq, right?' Lin Muqing asked.
Zhou Ming nodded and said yes. He then said to Tang Ran, 'Ran, didn't you say that no matter what decision I made, you would stand firmly by my side? Why are you having second thoughts now?'
Tang Ran's head shook like a rattle, and she was so anxious that she was about to cry: 'Ming brother, of course I don't mean that. Of course I will support everything you do, but this is different. This is related to your life safety...'
Tang Ran became more and more at a loss for words as she spoke, and then said firmly, 'If you really have to go, Ming, please take me with you!'
Hearing Tang Ran say this, not to mention Zhou Ming, even Lin Muqing felt helpless: Is this still persuading someone?
'Listen to what I have to say.'
At that moment, a voice suddenly came from somewhere, and it made Zhou Ming, Lin Muqing, Tang Ran and Tang Ran suddenly remember that Tang Jun, Tang Ran's father, was also here. They all subconsciously looked towards Tang Jun, and they heard Tang Jun say, 'From what you words, I think I can already guess the whole story. It is this young man Zhou Ming who wants to go to Iraq, but you are worried about the danger and don't want him to go. My opinion is that since he has made up his mind, let him go.'
'Men has ambitions to go far and wide, and an eagle cannot soar to the skies from its nest, for that is its true stage. Of course, there are great dangers there too, but should one shrink from them because of fear? To do so would be no better than a pig waiting to be slaughtered. And more importantly, if the eagle stays at home, it will gradually lose its claws and talons, and when danger really comes one day, it will no longer be able to protect its home.'
Tang Jun finally said, 'So instead of raising the eagle as a house bird, it is better to let it soar freely in the dangerous sky!'
Tang Jun words surprised Zhou Ming, Lin Muqing, and Tang Ran. Zhou Ming thought about his relationship with the two and worried that Tang Jun would fly into a rage. But it seemed that he hadn't said much about it. Perhaps Tang Ran had said something to him? Lin Muqing and Ran could never have imagined that Tang Jun would support Zhou Ming's idea.
'Dad, what are you talking about? You don't even know how dangerous it is over there in Iraq. There's a war going on, you can hear the sound of gunfire every day, and people die every day. Besides, Ming already said that in the next few days . Mei is also going to join the fight, and there will be a lot of planes bombing Iraq, and more people will die. How can you go to a place like that?' Tang Ran said anxiously.
Lin Mu Ming also said, 'That's true, Uncle. You really don't understand. He's just trying to target our competitors. But maybe we can find another, better way.'
It was clear Lin Muqing's words were more appropriate than Tang Ran's, and Tang immediately agreed, 'Exactly! Dad, if you don't understand, don't add to the confusion here!'
Faced with his son's muttering, Tang Jun had no choice but to raise his hands in surrender and say no more.
Tang Jun refused to argue with his son, but Zhou Ming still insisted: 'No matter what you say, I must go to Iraq, because that is the best way to solve the Adams family . Governor Edwards said he could help us get in touch with Iraq through the Morgan Group, which is not inferior to Rockefeller's da family in strength, so I believe I am safe!
Lin Muqing, however, would not allow any discussion at all: 'Zhou Ming, I don't care what you say, I disagree with Iraq!'
In the end, Zhou Ming and Lin Muqing Tang Ran faced off against each other, and it was clear that neither could convince the other. In the end, they had to put the argument aside and go to dinner first. However, after dinner, Lin Muqing simply took Tang Ran and left, leaving Ming Zhou with just one sentence: 'You just reflect on your actions!'
Lin Muqing and Tang Ran returned to the room with Tang Ran still angry and said, 'Brother Ming is really stubborn. We are obviously doing what is best for him, but why won't he listen? It really makes me so angry!'
Then Tang Ran turned to Lin Muqing and said, 'Muqing, tomorrow we must persuade Ming Ge to do the right thing again. We must not let him do anything stupid... Muqing?'
Lin Muqing been a little distracted, and it took Tang Ran's tap on the shoulder to bring her back to the present.
Seeing her like this, Tang Ran's red lips pouted up in the air, looking very displeased. 'Muqing, what are you thinking? Don't tell me you don't care about Ming anymore?'
Lin Muqing shook her head shook her head and said, 'Of course I care about him, but I suddenly thought of a very important question. Ranran, if you were Zhou Ming, what would you do in this situation?'
Tang Ran completely understood why Lin Muqing had suddenly asked such a question. She shook her head in confusion, when Lin Muqing asked her again, 'Do you think he will take advantage of the situation and slip away while we are both not here?'
Tang Ran was surprised and said, 'So Ming would do something like that? Then we have to think of a way quickly!'
As she spoke, and started to get ready in a flurry, but didn't know where to start. At that moment, Lin Muqing asked her again, 'Do you really think it's a good idea to stop him like this?'
'Muqing What are you talking about? Of course we want to stop him!' Tang Ran said without hesitation, "The place he's going to isn't just anywhere, it's Iraq, where there's about to be a war!'
'But that's also where his ambitions lie, isn't it?" Lin Muqing said 'In fact, what Uncle Tang just said is very true. A man should be bold and dare to fight for his ideals, because only in this way will he have no regrets. Now that he has already made the decision to go to Iraq, we should not be a stumbling block for him.'
Tang Ran was at a loss Tang Ran is at a loss: 'Muqing, should support also be divided according to the situation? Do we have to support him going to such a dangerous place as Iraq?'
Lin Muqing shakes her head: 'I'm not saying we should support him, but we don't want to be a stumbling block for him. To put it simply, if he wants to go to Iraq on his own, we'll just pretend we know nothing and wait for him to bring back good news of victory.'
'What? Mu Qing said, 'Isn't this a bit unconcerned about Ming? You know that there is going to be an outbreak of war there soon!' Tang Ran was surprised.
'Of course know what kind of place he is going to, but we need to believe that people like him, who are destined to be extraordinary, will definitely have extraordinary luck. So I believe that no matter how dangerous Iraq is, he will definitely be safe and sound.' Lin Muqing continued continued, 'In addition, Zhou Ming is not a man who will be irresponsible to himself. He will definitely give the utmost consideration to his own safety, so I think it is highly unlikely that anything will happen to him.'
'Ming, . I really want to believe that Brother Ming will be blessed and that no one will be able to do anything bad to him. But just in case...
Tang Ran said anxiously said Tang Ran anxiously, but she ran out of words after a while. Lin Muqing took up the thread of her thoughts and said, 'If something really does happen to him, we'll just go with him. Who says we're not his people? Since we chose such a man, shouldn't we be mentally prepared for this?'
Lin Muqing's words shocked Tang Ran, who then said, 'It seems that Muqing understands Ming Ge more than you, but I will also try to get closer to him and understand him better!'
