Chapter 1000 - Moscow Trip (2/2)
At least, unlike ordinary intelligence agents.
“Welcome to Moscow, Mr. Jiang. My full name is very long. According to the language habits of the Han people, you can call me Sminov.” Unlike his burly appearance, the voice of Mr. Sminov was courteous, and his standard Mandarin was good enough for him to be an announcer. He seemed to be a natural at diplomacy.
“I am Jiang Chen.”
Jiang Chen smiled, shook his hand, and began to chat.
The two didn’t discuss any work in the car and just chatted about all things. Sminov was an interesting person. While he didn’t talk much, he could talk about many topics. They discussed football, gold, then went on about fishing. Even if Sminov didn’t know some of the things, he could use clever language techniques to not make Jiang Chen feel bored.
And Natasha, sitting next to Jiang Chen, just felt invisible. Maybe it was because of her identity, but aside from her first sentence, she didn’t speak anymore.
It wasn’t until the car was parked at the door of a five-star hotel that Sminov mentioned the important affair.
“… In addition to the special security team of the Russian Security Service responsible for the peripheral work, on this trip in Moscow, Miss Natasha will be your security consultant. Whether it’s in life or work, if you encounter any inconveniences, you can consult her.”
“Don’t be polite; this is my job.” Natasha squeezed her eyebrows at Jiang Chen. It was the second sentence she said.
“Don’t worry. I won’t be polite with you.”
You’ve been drinking and eating at my house for so long. If I don’t bother you, I’ll be missing out on an opportunity big time!
Natasha grinned. Jiang Chen then looked at Sminov again. “I don’t know when you’re going to start the official discussion with us; I’m free any time, but I hope it’s not too late.”
“In three days at the latest. We will arrange for you to meet with an important person as soon as possible. It’s because he’s currently on the front lines and can’t come back immediately; I hope you can understand,” Sminov replied.
“No hurry. I will stay here for a while; I’m always free.”
After a few words, Sminov said goodbye to Jiang Chen.
Accompanied by Natasha and security personnel, Jiang Chen stepped into this five-star hotel. However, at the door of the presidential suite where he was staying, only Natasha followed behind him.
Jiang Chen took off his suit and tossed the tie aside. He then languidly took some champagne from the fridge and nonchalantly asked Natasha, “Can you tell me what you’re planning to discuss with me?”
“I’m sorry, I don’t know the exact details. This is top secret… I can only reveal one point and it’s related to the situation in Europe.”
Jiang Chen nodded and didn’t make it difficult for Natasha.
He then headed to the bathroom door. As he was about to take off his clothes to take a shower, he suddenly stopped and looked at Natasha on the sofa.
“I’m going to rest soon. You’re not going back to your room?”
She was amused by Jiang Chen and her bright red lips grinned. Natasha was leaning on the sofa drinking and didn’t have intentions to move at all. She gracefully crossed her legs.
“My room? It’s here.”
