Kim Seung-hwan returned to the general's mansion. As soon as he got off the car, he saw his daughter rushing towards him happily like a deer. Kim Seung-hwan smiled and greeted her, hugged her daughter in her arms, comforted her daughter a few words. Kim Min-ah took her father's arm and brought him to Zhang Yang.

Kim Seung-hwan came to Zhang Yang and did not shake hands with Zhang Yang immediately. Instead, he saluted him solemnly, and then held Zhang Yang's hand and said with gratitude: "I will remember everything Mr. Zhang has done for our Jin family."

Zhang Yang smiled and said, "General, you are polite. Min'er's business is mine." His words were sincere, but Jin Min'er, who was standing beside him, was so embarrassed that her pretty face was flushed because of his words.

Kim Seung-hwan smiled and said, "Sit inside!"

The mansion has been cleaned and the clean dining table in the kitchen is covered with clean white dining cloth. Jin Min'er has asked someone to prepare dinner.

Kim Seung-hwan invited Zhang Yang to sit down, and from the endless affection that the two young people looked at each other, Kim Seung-hwan had realized that their relationship had become very close through this change.

Kim Seung-hwan picked up the red wine and said, "Celebrating our Kim family through the disaster!"

Jin Min'er picked up the wine glass but couldn't help but think of her uncle, and tears appeared in her beautiful eyes.

Jin Seung-hwan knew what his daughter was thinking and said softly: "The deceased is gone. If your uncle's spirit in heaven sees you safe and sound, he will probably be happy." He raised his wine glass to Zhang Yang and took a sip of red wine.

Zhang Yang also took a sip.

Kim Seung-hwan said: "When will Mr. Zhang go back?"

Jin Min'er was a little dissatisfied with her father's words. Zhang Yang helped the Jin family so much. The matter had just subsided. He was about to ask when the other person would leave. Jin Min'er said, "Dad, are you going to rush Zhang Yang away now?"

Kim Seung-hwan smiled and said, "Min'er, I don't mean that, I just asked casually."

Zhang Yang slowly dropped his glass and said, "I still have a lot of things to deal with in China. This time I came to South Korea and made a hasty decision. I plan to leave the day after tomorrow. At that time, I will have to worry General Jin to arrange for me to go back."

Kim Seung-hwan nodded and said, "No problem."

Seeing that he agreed so readily, Zhang Daren was a little surprised. Logically, even if Kim Seung-hwan was polite, he should have kept him, but he didn't say anything. Perhaps this is the character of a soldier, and he was born to be unfamiliar with expressing feelings.

Although such a big thing happened to the Jin family, they did not explore this problem at dinner. In Jin Seung-hwan's view, there was no need to explain the details of the rebellion to outsiders. In Zhang Yang's view, this was originally the internal affairs of the people and he was not interested in interfering.

After dinner, Kim Seung-hwan asked the servant to lead Zhang Yang to the guest room for rest and called his daughter to his study.

Jin Min'er realized from her father's performance at night that he must have important things to talk to her, but she was still a little angry because her father's lukewarm attitude towards Zhang Yang at night. After walking into the study, she protested angrily: "Dad, how can you treat Zhang Yang like this? He is not only my benefactor, but also the benefactor of the Jin family."

Kim Seung-hwan smiled and said, "I know, I have expressed my gratitude to him too? What do you think of me? After the situation stabilizes, I will definitely repay him twice as much."

Jin Min'er said, "He doesn't care about your reward."

"What does he care about?"

Jin Min'er asked in one sentence. She tried hard for a long time and still couldn't answer it. Her pretty face turned red. In her heart, Zhang Yang cared about herself, but this sentence could not be explained to her father no matter what.

Kim Seung-hwan said: "Min'er. I'm asking you to come here to discuss it with you."

When Jin Min'er saw her father's sudden serious expression, she became a little nervous inexplicably.

Kim Seung-hwan said: "Although our Kim family survived a disaster this time, the domestic situation has become turbulent, and mutual trust must be established again between the military and the political circles." He paused and said: "Mr. President and I joined forces to smash this rebellion, but our relationship must be strengthened. Min-ah, the president's only son, Hong Jung-jae, is an extremely outstanding young man. He is not only knowledgeable but also handsome and elegant. He has admired you for a long time. Today, when the president met me, he took the initiative to mention your marriage to Jung-jae to me."

Kim Min-er shook her head vigorously and said, "I don't agree. Why do you have to build a mutual trust on the basis of in-laws? I have no feelings for Hong Jung-jae at all. I can't marry someone I don't love at all."

"Love?" Kim Seung-hwan smiled sarcastically: "Only young people who are not well-versed in the world will believe in the existence of love. Life is realistic. Min'er, you will understand in the future that reality and imagination are two different things. If we combine, then our alliance will be unmatched. We will become the most powerful family on this land, and all of this will belong to you."

"I don't care!" Jin Min'er shouted, as if she was afraid that her father would not understand what she meant. She repeated again: "I don't care about power or money, I know who I like, and who I know to be happy with."

Kim Seung-hwan said: "Is it Zhang Yang? Even if a foreigner has kindness to you, you don't have to sacrifice yourself to repay him!"

Jin Min'er's eyes were full of stubbornness and unyielding: "Yes, I only have him in my heart, and no one can replace him in my heart. If you force me to do something I don't want to do, I would rather choose to die!"

Kim Seung-hwan slapped a heavy blow on the table, stood up angrily, pointed to the tip of his daughter's nose and said, "Remember to me that you are not only alive for yourself, but also have to bear the honor of this family. If you act willfully, how can you be worthy of your uncle's sacrifice?"

Jin Min'er said with tears in her eyes: "If my uncle was alive, he would never force me to do this, and he would not use me as a bargaining weight for his own power."

Kim Seung-hwan nodded hatred: "Min'er, I'll give you time to think about it. But it won't be too long. I must give you a reply before sunrise tomorrow!"

Jin Min'er rushed out of the study and was about to find Zhang Yang, but was blocked by the two guards. Her father's voice came from behind: "Send the lady back to her own room. Without my permission, no one is allowed to let her out."

The General's Mansion is very large, and the main body is composed of two villas. The guest room where Zhang Yang is located is located in another villa. Although Kim Seung-hwan was very polite to him that night, Zhang Yang still felt something unusual and always felt that Kim Seung-hwan's performance was mysterious.

After Zhang Yang took a shower, he replaced the wound with medicine, put on his clothes and walked out of the room. When he saw two guards guarding there, Zhang Yang came out, they hurriedly stood at attention and saluted. One of them was very good in Chinese. This was specially arranged by Kim Seung-hwan. The guard said: "General, let us stay here and be responsible for protecting Mr. Zhang's safety."

Zhang Yang smiled and thought to himself that you two dared to protect me. If I fell to the point where you were protected by you, I would not dare to travel here to protect Min'er. Of course, Zhang Daren would not believe that they were just sent to protect themselves. Ten times was Jin Chenghuan who sent them to follow him and avoid walking around.

Zhang Yang said, "If I don't go far, I will just walk around the yard. There should be no danger in the general's mansion!" He had already walked out, and the two guards quickly followed, following each other like shadows.

Zhang Daren stopped and turned to the two of them and said, "What do you mean? Are you worried that I will not be good to the general?"

The guard who was quite good at Chinese laughed and said, "Mr. Zhang was joking. We all know that you are the savior of the lady, so how could it be unfavorable to the general?"

Zhang Yang said: "Since that's the case, you two shouldn't follow me anymore. I'll walk around this yard and breathe some free air. Following me like this makes me feel like I'm imprisoned."

The two guards looked at each other, but after Zhang Yang took a few steps, they followed him from afar. Zhang Daren shook his head helplessly, and stopped again: "I want to meet the lady."

The guard said, "Mr. Zhang, I think you've been tired for a day, so you'd better take a break early. The lady should have already slept. It's probably not appropriate to bother her now."

Zhang Daguan Ren felt something was wrong, but he didn't insist, and smiled and said, "What he said makes sense, then... I'd better go back and go to bed early."

When the two guards saw that he finally agreed to go back to rest, they all breathed a sigh of relief. The expressions of these two people could not hide from Zhang Yang's eyes.

Zhang Yang returned to the guest room and locked the door. He picked up the phone in the room, but found that the phone was broken. He couldn't help but feel annoyed. What was Kim Seung-hwan doing? He helped him so much, without asking for anything in return, but he couldn't treat me like this. What is the way to treat guests? It's simply house arrest. If he followed Zhang Daguan Ren's past temper, he would have gone to Jin Seung-hwan to argue, but now he is in a foreign country. Although he has helped the Jin family, people like Kim Seung-hwan may not appreciate it. In ancient and modern times, both Chinese and foreign, all such great figures often do not care about the details. In their eyes, grudges and power may be insignificant. Before they know what Kim Seung-hwan's specific thoughts, it is still difficult to act rashly.

Zhang Yang simply sat on the bed and regulating his breathing silently. The gunshot wound on his body had begun to itch and was healing. However, he was always a little restless tonight and could not calm down. It was already twelve o'clock in the evening. Zhang Yang looked out through the window, but saw that the courtyard was still tightly defended. More than a dozen guards were patrolling the mansion, and there were heavy troops stationed outside the general's mansion. Looking up at the night sky, he saw a bright moon slowly rising into the night sky. Zhang Yang suddenly remembered that it was fifteen again. On the night of the full moon, he and Jin Min'er were close but could not meet.

Zhang Yang thought to himself, no matter what, I will meet Min'er tonight and figure out what Kim Seung-hwan is doing?
