On the 60th day of the ceasefire and truce between the Asian Union and Northern Mongolia, the President of the New Independent State announced at a regular press conference that the joint support forces would be withdrawn from the Mongolian border in batches. At the North American summit that followed, the acting president of the Asian Union was also invited to attend and held the first meeting in recent years with the president of the newly independent country at the North American Capitol.
After the newly independent state provided humanitarian assistance to northern Mongolia, the seven-year semi-severing diplomatic relationship between the Asian Union and the newly independent state finally showed signs of ending.
At first, the political circles and the media in various countries were not surprised, because in the fourth year after the economic exchanges between the two countries were completely shut down, the newly independent country had withdrawn its reinforcements, greatly reduced aid, and began to release reconciliation to the Asian Union. signal of.
And half a month ago, people familiar with the matter had predicted the withdrawal plan of the newly independent state and the agenda of the tripartite talks.
What really caused the outside world to speculate was a specious news from the cabinet of the newly independent country and the Asian Union at the same time after the talks: there is a modern diplomatic marriage that is about to happen between the two countries.
The New Independent State was once the largest overseas affiliation of the Asian Union. More than 20 years ago, the New Independent State voted for independence. The two countries resumed diplomatic relations after a short-term severance of diplomatic relations, and have maintained good diplomatic relations. Then, halfway through his term of office, the president of the newly independent country ordered aid to Northern Mongolia, and the two countries once again entered a freezing period.
After the Asian Union Group Corporation, headed by Zhaohua Energy, made an emergency statement, it also successively withdrew its various industries in the newly independent country and moved to North America or other neighboring countries around the newly independent country.
According to the news, one of the protagonists of the marriage is the heir of a chaebol in the Asian Union, and the other is the son of a dignitary in the newly independent country.
After excluding Zhaohua Energy, some good people made a matching table between the unmarried heirs of the major chaebols of the Asian Union and the sons of all the officials who ranked high in the political arena of the New Independent State, and gave various matches. Match index is marked.
The people of the two countries looked at the table and had a lot of fun guessing until an authoritative media released the exclusive news that Zhaohua Group's No. 4 business jet applied for the first direct flight from the Asian Union in several years on Wednesday. The air route of the newly independent country, people turned their incredible attention to the army colonel who had not completed the application for retirement, Chen Boqiao, the heir of Zhaohua Group.
In the next 24 hours, a group photo published in a local newspaper in the North American capital last month brought Zhang Jue, the only son of the foreign minister of the newly independent country, into the public eye.
This is a charity dinner attended by Chen Boqiao in North America.
The photo shows the host of the banquet, Chen Boqiao, and a young man with a handsome face.
The young man was wearing a black formal suit, with fair skin and a handsome face. His hair was draped over his shoulders and the ends of his hair were slightly curled. He was only slightly shorter than Chen Boqiao, but his body was much thinner.
Strictly speaking, the standing posture of the youth and Chen Boqiao is not particularly close, but the banquet organizer revealed in an interview that Chen Boqiao and the youth have been classmates for many years, and their relationship is extraordinary. This time, it is also Chen Boqiao. Take the initiative to invite Zhang Jue to participate in the shooting.
After the interview record of the banquet host was released, some alumni of Chen Boqiao’s Roche College raised objections and posted graduation photos on social networks. Chen Boqiao was in the middle of the group photo, while Zhang Jue was at the far left. On the other hand, the two are far apart, and it is impossible to judge whether the relationship is good.
Just as everyone was arguing, Zhaohua Energy directly confirmed to the public through official channels that Zhang Jue was the object of Chen Boqiao's marriage.
This time, the publicity came unexpectedly, and some commentators asserted that when the photo was taken, Chen Boqiao’s invitation to take a photo with Zhang Jue was the initial signal of the Asian Union and the newly independent country to melt ice, and this ambiguous political marriage, It is an olive branch thrown by the acting president to the newly independent country.
Chen Boqiao made a marital sacrifice for the diplomatic relations of the Asian Union, which made many people in the Asian Union indignant.
And Chen Boqiao's motive for agreeing to this marriage has also sparked a lot of controversy.
Some people speculate that this is the surrender order Chen Boqiao sent to the acting president and the current government. It is a helpless compromise he made to successfully retire from active service and succeed Zhaohua Energy. The voices of those who are chasing fame and fortune without any use.
Regardless of the facts, the name Zhang Jue grabbed the front pages of news in various countries overnight.
Everyone began to discuss the reasons for Zhang Jue's selection, studied Zhang Jue's family background and life, and finally came to the common and only conclusion that the only son of the foreign minister of the newly independent country, his resume was as clean as a blank sheet of paper.
Although some people in the newly independent country inevitably expressed their doubts in private, because from the newly independent country to the Asian Union, no media dared to mention Zhang Jue's engagement experience, but these people in the know kept silent. .
Amid the debate, on March 17th, on a sunny morning, the Gulfstream aircraft painted with the Zhaohua Energy logo and number IV took off from the capital airport of the Asian League.
Yu An is an accompanying reporter for Chen Boqiao's trip to the New Independent State to negotiate the wedding. He is from the International News Department of the Asian Associated Press.
When receiving the notice from the editor-in-chief, Yu An almost thought that he had not woken up yet. This was an opportunity that all young reporters in the league wanted. For this, Yu An made a lot of preparations, but the more he prepared, the less he understood why Chen Boqiao was willing to marry Zhang Jue.
Before Chen Zhaoyan's accident, Chen Boqiao also had very few scandals. He was photographed going out and out of public places alone with several well-matched Asian League Omegas, suspected of being blind dates, but there was no longer any follow-up.
In Yu An's view, Chen Boqiao is not the type who will compromise on the rumored retirement conditions.
On the morning of the 17th, Yu An and the photographer drove to the business terminal of the Capital Airport.
The terminal building is not big. After the customs and border inspectors checked their passports and visas, they passed the customs. Assistant Chen Boqiao was waiting at the other end and took them into the lounge of Zhaohua Energy.
This is the first time Yu An has seen Chen Boqiao.
Chen Boqiao was sitting on a single-seat sofa near the screen in the lounge, wearing a fitted suit. When he saw Yu An coming in, he smiled and nodded.
Yu An looked at Chen Boqiao, rarely avoiding the gaze of his familiar photographer partner.
After more than ten hours of flight, they landed at the outlying island airport of the newly independent country and went straight to the hotel where they stayed.
The economic minister of the newly independent country came forward and gave Chen Boqiao a private reception, making the meeting look like a diplomatic meeting.
For some reason, Zhang Jue was wearing a turtleneck sweater that looked very soft and comfortable, and his hair was slack behind his neck, sitting quietly beside his parents.
He didn't say anything in the audience, and listened to Chen Boqiao's ability to talk with all parties and negotiate the details of the wedding and Omega's naturalization.
Finally, Zhang Fu opened his mouth and suggested that everyone take a break.
Zhang Jue seemed to be a little tired, leaned closer to Zhang Fu, and said something in a low voice. Zhang Fu nodded to him, and Zhang Jue got up and walked out.
Yu An stood aside to sort out the manuscript, and noticed that Chen Boqiao's eyes swept to the door. Within half a minute, Chen Boqiao also stood up, buttoned the second button of his suit, and walked out steadily.
"They've all gone out," the photographer whispered to Yu An aside, "Could it be that Colonel Chen was here to demonstrate."
Photography is a beta who loves gossip. He has his own set of theories about this marriage. He is afraid of being heard, so he speaks lightly, but his tone imitates very well: "I married you, it doesn't mean I love you, just My expedient."
"I'm going out to take a breath." Yu An put down the manuscript and said to the photographer. The photography winked at him knowingly.
Yu An pushed open the door of the conference room and walked out slowly. He guessed where Chen Boqiao and Zhang Jue would go, bypassed the deep and long corridor, and came to the marble spiral staircase between the hotel's main building and the annex. nearby.
Zhang Jue and Chen Boqiao were indeed there. They stood face to face, chatting not far from each other, just like the distance in the photo, they looked like two people who had just known each other for a while.
Yu An couldn't help thinking of the photographer's guess, and felt that the two might have to say something that others couldn't hear, so he began to hesitate whether to leave or stay.
Before he made a decision, he suddenly saw that Zhang Jue was very slow and hesitantly moved forward, approaching Chen Boqiao, and Chen Boqiao raised his arm slightly.
For a moment, Yu An thought that Chen Boqiao was trying to push Zhang Jue away.
But Chen Boqiao just pulled Zhang Jue in front of him and asked Zhang Jue if he wanted him.
Then, under the glittering sunlight of early spring, in the shadow of the huge steel bars between the floor-to-ceiling windows of the hotel conference center, he leaned down slightly and kissed Zhang Jue on the lips.
Chen Boqiao didn't kiss him eagerly, but the hand he clasped on Zhang Jue's waist looked firm, making Zhang Jue close to him and preventing Zhang Jue from retreating.
Yu An was startled that he seemed to have broken some secret, Fang wanted to back away, Chen Boqiao suddenly raised his eyes, his eyes penetrated halfway through the hall, and looked at Yu An expressionlessly, his hand on Zhang Jue's back Moving slightly, Yu An saw the scars on his tiger's mouth and the tiny folds on Zhang Jue's sweater.
As soon as Chen Boqiao moved, Zhang Jue also opened his eyes immediately. He looked up at Chen Boqiao in confusion, his jaw and neck formed a beautiful line, his lips slightly moved away from Chen Boqiao, and asked him what was wrong .
But Chen Boqiao didn't answer, didn't look at Yu An, and didn't look at anyone else, he re-printed Zhang Jue's lips, like all lovers in love, and kissed Zhang Jue like no one else.
