Super Soldier in the Chapter 1094 - 1137: Reunited with Aoki Reiko

Chapter 1094: Chapter 1137: Reunited with Aoki Reiko

Li Yifei’s trip to Capital City this ti really brought him great benefits, yet it also saddled him with a trendous responsibility. This responsibility might take a lifeti, perhaps even remain unfulfilled, but it established a life goal for Li Yifei, filling him with fighting spirit once again.

Previously, he had only been striving for his own little household, but now, he had to exert himself for the nation, his larger family. Even though he had retired from service, as a forr soldier, taking on the country’s worries was an inescapable duty.

Yet the thought of Su’s Third Eldest made Li Yifei shake his head involuntarily; this unruly old fellow was really a headache. Fortunately, he didn’t bring him along to solicit prostitutes, but instead to a bar.

In the bar, Li Yifei witnessed the old man’s true madness. Far from behaving like a man nearing sixty, he was more like a young lad in his twenties. And because of his age, he surprisingly attracted countless beautiful young won, shining like a dazzling star. Quickly, he hooked up with a rather nice-looking lady.

The old guy even constantly egged on Li Yifei to pick up girls. In the end, Li Yifei could only pretend to find a girl himself, and when the old man took the beauty to a hotel room, Li slipped away and stood her up.

With a wife, and so many at that, Li Yifei had already lost all interest in such matters.

Initially, he had planned to spend a few days in Capital City, but the Three Great Clans were quite obedient in sending money over, so there was no need to trouble them further. And he really feared that Su’s Third Eldest would seek him out the next day, so after standing up the woman, he didn’t even return to the Su family and instead drove straight to Mile City.

The return trip was not as urgent as the journey there, so Li Yifei drove at a normal pace. However, about a hundred kiloters from Mile City, the highway was closed due to an accident ahead, and Li Yifei had to exit and follow a national road to Mile City.

It was already past two in the morning, the traffic on the national road was sparse, and Li Yifei’s speed was not slower than on the highway. After driving for about tens of kiloters, he saw a figure standing vaguely by the roadside, wildly waving, as if trying to flag down a car.

Flagging down cars by the roadside at this hour, in such a place, led Li Yifei to instinctively suspect that the person harbored ill intentions, so he didn’t bother with them.

But when his car was a few hundred ters away from the person, they suddenly darted into the middle of the road, flailing their arms strenuously, as though determined to force Li Yifei’s car to a halt.

Li Yifei urgently stomped on the brakes, feeling sowhat irritated. These robbers sure had guts, not fearing that they’d get hit. It was at this mont that he could see it was a woman, not a man.

Li Yifei barely brought the car to a stop when the woman hurried over, as if in fear that he might drive off, blocking the front of the car and waving her hands while speaking loudly, "I’m lost, I can’t find my car, could you please help

and give

a ride?"

Japanese! The woman was speaking Japanese, likely a Japanese national. That probably ruled out a robber, and why did her voice sound so familiar to Li Yifei?

Aoki Reiko... Li Yifei suddenly rembered who the woman was.

Seeing this Japanese woman, Li Yifei’s first instinct was to flee imdiately. During their last encounter, due to special circumstances, he hadn’t refrained from taking advantage of Aoki Reiko, and he had also caused quite so trouble for the Aoki Group. Although Li Yifei had been very careful, with such a big incident, how could Aoki Reiko extricate herself so easily?

But Aoki Reiko was now blocking his car. Unless Li Yifei reversed abruptly and then sped past her, which was not difficult for him, he did not choose to do so. It was odd for Aoki Reiko to appear at this ti and place. If he left her to continue flagging down cars, she was very prone to encounter trouble.

As thoughts raced through his mind, he realized she probably wouldn’t recognize him since he had been in disguise at that ti. He rolled down the car window and said, "Hey, miss, could you say sothing I can understand?"

"Oh! Hello... my na is Aoki Reiko, I’m... lost right now. Could you please take

to the downtown area? I beg you!" Aoki Reiko explained her situation in her unpolished Chinese, then bowed deeply to Li Yifei.

Li Yifei smiled slightly and said, "Alright, then get in."

"Thank you! Thank you!" Aoki Reiko bowed twice more before opening the door and sitting in the passenger seat.

Once Aoki Reiko was seated, Li Yifei started the car and asked, "You’re Japanese?"

Aoki Reiko buckled her seatbelt and nodded, replying, "Yes."

"How did you end up lost in China?" Li Yifei continued.

Aoki Reiko, however, turned to look at Li Yifei. She only understood a little Chinese, so Li Yifei’s question was incomprehensible to her. Apologetically, she said, "I’m sorry, I... didn’t understand."

Li Yifei chuckled and said in Japanese, "Then speak in Japanese, I can understand it." His identity wasn’t ordinary now; at the very least, Aoki Reiko could eventually find out who he was, so there was no need for excessive concealnt, as long as he didn’t allow Aoki Reiko to connect him with that person from Japan.

"Ah! That’s really wonderful!" Aoki Reiko exclaid excitedly in Japanese.

"Hehe, you’re Japanese, so how did you end up in our country and even get lost?"

"I’ve always greatly admired Huaxia’s culture. I ca to Huaxia recently to visit, and today I ended up on a mountain here. When I ca down, I took the wrong path, and it wasn’t until past midnight that I reached the highway. I wanted to hitch a ride back to the city, but no one would stop for . I’m really sorry for dangerously blocking your car just now."

Li Yifei smiled and said, "Around here, sotis there are bad people who stop cars to rob them, so drivers won’t stop to pick up pedestrians."

"I see, no wonder no one stopped for . By the way, sir, my na is Aoki Reiko. May I ask for your na?"

"My na is Li Yifei."

"Nice to et you, Mr. Li. Once again, thank you for your help."

"You’re welco. Huh, Aoki Reiko... that na sounds sowhat familiar."

"You’ve heard of my na?" Aoki Reiko looked at Li Yifei, puzzled. Even though it was very dark inside the car, she still looked at him.

"Yes, I’ve seen it sowhere. I rember now, the daughter of the Japanese Aoki Group is also called Aoki Reiko. You wouldn’t happen to be her, would you?"

"Yes, I am Aoki Reiko."

"To actually et you, what a surprise! Aoki Group, such a large conglorate, with assets no less than tens of billions of US dollars, and you as the sole legal heir to the group, have co to Huaxia alone. Aren’t you afraid of the dangers?"

"I’ve been in Huaxia for almost a week, but I haven’t encountered any danger. People don’t know my identity; I didn’t expect Mr. Li to recognize ."

Li Yifei smiled and said, "Don’t worry, I won’t do anything to you. I’m also in business, so I pay attention to these matters. There was a ti when I considered cooperating with Aoki Group, but then I felt my strength wasn’t enough, so I didn’t go through with it."

"Oh, so Mr. Li is also an accomplished young man. If there’s an opportunity in the future, perhaps we could try cooperating."

"Thank you, Miss Reiko, but I wouldn’t want you to cooperate with

just because I did you a small favor. Business should be conducted in a straightforward and proper manner."

Li Yifei dared not cooperate with Aoki Group, especially through Aoki Reiko. If they were to interact more in the future, she might recognize him, and that would be troubleso. So at this mont, he used a righteous-sounding excuse to deflect.

"Mr. Li, I didn’t expect you to be such an ambitious person. I really admire you. If I may ask so boldly, what is your company’s na?"

Li Yifei said, "Previously, I only had a few small companies, nothing worth ntioning." At first, Li Yifei ntioned his na because he thought Aoki Reiko should know who he was, but now she seed willing to thank him by cooperating with his company, and Li Yifei no longer wanted to discuss it. He just didn’t want any more interaction with Aoki Reiko.

"Oh? Why wouldn’t Mr. Li say?" Aoki Reiko looked at Li Yifei with curiosity, as this clearly didn’t follow normal logic. Business people, when faced with a profitable opportunity, would try to establish relations with the other party. Yet Li Yifei seed to be pushing away the business opportunity that had co knocking.

Li Yifei also felt his refusal was sowhat unreasonable and laughed, "Miss Reiko, it would naturally be good to cooperate with Aoki Group. However, our company is currently in the restructuring phase. We are focusing on our existing projects and don’t have any plans for overseas expansion. Blind expansion would involve a large amount of our company’s funds, which wouldn’t be beneficial for our current developnt."

Aoki Reiko looked at Li Yifei with fresh eyes and said, "Mr. Li, I rarely see such a calm businessman who can resist such a huge profit set before them. Just for that alone, your company will surely develop even better. I am becoming even more interested in cooperating with you. Our Aoki Group has also hit a developnt bottleneck in our ho country, and we are considering overseas expansion. Working with soone like you, Mr. Li, would certainly put us at ease. Even if you aren’t considering a partnership right now, we can still keep in touch. There will always be an opportunity to cooperate in the future."

Li Yifei was at a loss for words; his attempts to evade had sohow led to this effect, drawing Aoki Reiko closer rather than pushing her away. This was definitely not good news.
