Chapter: 2853
Yu Chen agreed, saying: "If I'm being honest, you people did handle this situation very foolishly. You're correct, there's no mistake, but you got your stance wrong. If you really want to reduce wars in the world, you shouldn't be promoting anti-war messages in Syria, but rather at the gates of the White House, because your ancestral country is responsible for at least 50% of modern society's wars worldwide."
He Jiaohua nodded lightly and then hurriedly said: "Yu Mr., actually what I wanted to say is that I'm not one of those banana people..."
Yu Chen asked curiously: "What do you mean by 'banana people'?"
He Jiaohua rushed to explain: "Banana people refer to us Chinese-born Americans who have a yellow-skinned body and genes, but think like Western white people."
Yu Chen showed interest and asked: "Don't you think like Western white people either?"
He Jiaohua shook his head and said: "Although I was born and raised in the United States and hold American citizenship, my parents educated me from a young age to remember that my roots are in China. No matter where I go, it's always the creed of Chinese people."
Yu Chen nodded lightly again and asked: "But I heard your dad say you don't seem very willing to return to your country?"
Yu Chen explained: "It's mainly because we have some communication issues. Actually, this issue has been there between my parents and me since I was young. When I was a kid, he was always busy making money, traveling all over the world, and rarely gave me attention or let me experience paternal love. So, our relationship became stiff. After my mom passed away, things got even worse. That's why I don't want to go back, it's just an excuse for him."
As she spoke, Yu Chen sighed and said: "Actually, I have thought about it myself. Even if I don't smooth out our relationship now, when he really gets old, I still need to find a way to take care of him. It's just that before, I felt like he was only in his 50s, not yet at the point where we need to make amends."
Yu Chen nodded understandingly and opened her mouth: "If you feel that our relationship is indeed too difficult to smooth out, then there's no need. You can go back to Gold Mountain right now, which is what your dad hopes for as well. If you still want some personal space, I believe he will also understand."
Yu Chen spoke casually: "But I have already agreed with you, ah..."
As she realized something, she blushed and said: "However, you might feel that I'm not qualified to take up this position anymore, considering the huge mistake I made in judgment. This proves my abilities and timing are still not enough."
Yu Chen waved her hand dismissively: "This is not a big deal. One person makes a wrong judgment, it doesn't mean they will make other mistakes too. I have always believed that someone's talent does not follow the bucket effect principle."
"What kind of people are balanced in all aspects? They're not talented, they're mediocre!
Only someone who excels in one or two areas is truly talented! If someone excels in several areas, then they're a genius!"
As she spoke, Yu Chen seriously: "You should watch many Hollywood motivational movies. Some people may seem stupid but have extremely strong math abilities; some people are unskilled but can play basketball exceptionally well; and some people can't even talk well but are top-notch physicists or astronomers..."
"It's not like Einstein, who was a top-notch genius, could do anything. So, as far as I'm concerned, as long as you can handle this project well, any shortcomings are insignificant to me."
"I'm grateful, Mr. Ye, as long as you're willing to give me an opportunity, I'll definitely put in my best effort and work with you to complete this project!"
"That's really great! By the way, I think this time going to Jinling, you can also take the chance to ease your relationship with Uncle Hei. He really cares about you, and if it weren't for him, I wouldn't have been able to rescue you in Syria."
"When Ye Chen and Hao Kui returned to Jinling at a gallop, Hamid was also rushing back to that mountain valley in northern Syria."
"At this moment, his subordinates were discussing something in hushed tones, with everyone perplexed about why Hamid suddenly decided to release one person as a hostage. And besides the woman hostage, there was another unfamiliar figure who emerged from nowhere and followed Hamid together. It's like an unusual event that even a strictly guarded military outpost would find bizarre and unprecedented."
"So, everyone was eager to know what had just happened after Hamid left. Hamid's deputy personally went down to the cellar to investigate, but Feisal and others who were loyal to Ye Chen were using the only narrow entrance and the advantage of a fortified iron gate to defend themselves inside. Hamid's deputy didn't expect Feisal would betray him, and in his haste, he almost wanted to blow up the place with explosives, but then he thought about the seven possible hostages inside who could be exchanged for ransom, so he temporarily put that idea aside.
However, he was very clear in his mind that although the cellar was hard to defend, it was also a dead end, so as long as they held the exit, Feisal would eventually surrender. Therefore, he immediately deployed nearly a hundred armed personnel to the courtyard, pointing all their guns at the entrance of the cellar, ensuring that anyone who came out from inside would be instantly blown away.
At this moment, a helicopter buzzed in from the sky, causing everyone to tense up. Everyone recognized this helicopter as the one Hamid's commander had just ridden in earlier. However, no one knew yet whether Hamid's commander would walk out of the helicopter when it landed later.
The helicopter slowly descended, and Hamid's deputy saw that it was going to land in the courtyard, so he immediately instructed his nearby soldiers: 'Everyone, scatter quickly and give the helicopter some space to land! The originally crowded soldiers in the courtyard quickly dispersed to the four corners, leaving enough space for the helicopter to land." JrNovels.com
