On the other end of the phone, Gan Yuan withdrew her gaze from the telephone in front of her, her expression was not relaxed.
It’s clear that General Barton was still very assertive.
At this mont, she could not yet be sure what the opponent’s reaction would be, whether it would be as she and Huangfu Jue hoped, to propose negotiations, or if he would act out of desperation and formally declare war on her.
Huangfu Jue noticed her concern and stepped forward to hold her shoulder.
"From my understanding of him, this old fox should not easily gamble everything. He also knows he cannot win, so he should choose to negotiate."
Gan Yuan nodded, "Let’s hope so!"
Once war breaks out, it ans countless innocents would lose their lives, a situation she most doesn’t want to see.
But things have developed to this point, she can only do her best, after all, the enemy’s reactions are beyond anyone’s control.
Raising his palm, holding her cheek, Huangfu Jue gently lifted her face.
"I rember when I was small, I once asked my grandfather. If the army is to protect the country, then why do we go to war? Back then, my grandfather’s answer remains clearly in my mory. He said, we never organize troops for war, but in face of the enemy, we never retreat. Every casualty is for a better future. This ti, it will be the sa!"
If General Barton truly starts the war, then it would be an unavoidable conflict.
He also does not wish for war to truly break out, but if it reaches that point, he will not run away.
Gazing into the man’s deep and resolute blue eyes, Gan Yuan gently nodded.
"I understand."
The door was knocked, Helen walked in.
"Miss Gan, Mr. Abel has returned, I have already arranged for soone to take them to the reception room."
"Good!" Gan Yuan rejuvenated her spirit, "Let’s go over now."
Huangfu Jue helped her organize her long hair, the two walked out of the study together and went to the reception room downstairs.
"Gan!" Seeing her, Abel imdiately stood up, smiling as he approached, "I haven’t seen you in a few days, I missed you so much, you must have missed too, right?"
Gan Yuan slightly raised the corner of her lips, this man always had the knack for making won laugh.
"Princess!"
Betty had already excitedly stood up, moving to Gan Yuan.
"This ti, Princess Betty has co on behalf of Duchess Caroline." Abel solemnly introduced from the side.
Gan Yuan imdiately extended her hand towards Betty, "Great, welco Princess Betty."
Betty smiled widely and said, "No need to be formal with , it’s such a hassle calling each other princesses, how about we just use our nas?"
"Alright, then I’ll call you Betty."
"Okay." Betty smiled, then led her to the navy admiral who ca along, "This is General David, who will be responsible for the cooperative operations this ti."
At this ti, Huangfu Jue also walked over, and after a brief exchange of pleasantries, they imdiately sat down to discuss business.
On the plane, Abel had already represented Gan Yuan and Huangfu Jue’s side, discussing specific details with this navy admiral, now they just needed a simple communication between both parties to complete the agreent.
After Abel finished introducing the details, Huangfu Jue gently nodded, "Then when can your country’s navy be in position?"
"Within ten hours, it can reach the designated sea area." General replied.
