Mercenary’s War

Chapter 2328 - 2304: Giving Him an Out

The door finally opened, and as the expressionless Glewatov stepped aside, Gao Yang was the first to walk out of the door. He then slightly bent over, extended his hand, and said very respectfully, "Mr. Lavagani, please."

Lavagani walked out of the door, his expression unchanged. After nodding slightly, he said to Gao Yang, "You’re too kind, Mr. Peter Ram."

Salim stood to the side, almost dumbfounded. Just now, there was the sound of heavy thuds inside, clearly the sound of fists hitting flesh, accompanied by shouting and yelling. How did it end peacefully so quickly!

Salim was somewhat astonished, but with the matter resolved peacefully, it was naturally for the best.

"That’s great, you two, this, this is..."

Gao Yang said with a face full of regret, "I was a bit impulsive just now, Salim, my brother, I’m sorry for making you worry too. But it’s all fine now, I’ve calmed down, and Mr. Lavagani graciously forgave my rashness and impulsiveness."

Lavagani replied with restraint, "No, no, I was a bit too impulsive too. Both sides have responsibilities. I should apologize as well."

At this point, Salim swallowed a mouthful of saliva and suddenly said, "Then, let’s please all come in quickly."

Although the act needed to be thorough, they couldn’t continue to offer steps of retreat to each other. At the doorway, the atmosphere was tense with guns aimed at each other; if someone accidentally fired, it would turn into a tragedy.

Gao Yang looked towards the doorway, then frowned and angrily shouted, "What are you doing? I only had a private conversation with Mr. Lavagani, so why block the way and even draw guns! Put the guns away!"

With Gao Yang’s reprimand, Glolov and the others put their guns away and stepped aside, while Lavagani also angrily shouted, "Just notify me if there’s something. How did it become like this?"

Standing at the doorway, Gao Yang said with an apologetic smile, "I’m really sorry, Mr. Lavagani, I was indeed a bit impulsive and spoke rashly, causing my brothers to misunderstand. I’m very sorry, truly sorry."

Lavagani waved his hand and said loudly, "It’s nothing. I also didn’t explain clearly. The misunderstanding is resolved now, so it’s no problem, let bygones be bygones."

After saying this, Lavagani waved his hand towards the people at the door, his face turning serious as he loudly said, "Go back, what are you all doing here."

As the men holding guns at the door slowly began to back away, Abdullah immediately emerged from the crowd.

In fact, Abdullah had already arrived earlier, but with Satan’s people in front holding up guns and bullets chambered, he couldn’t stand at the forefront. Now that it’s fine and safe, he naturally came out.

Abdullah spread his arms with a delighted expression and laughed, "I told you, it was just a little misunderstanding. I actually wanted to introduce you two to each other, but now it seems unnecessary."

After chuckling, Abdullah looked at Salim and, in a blaming tone, said, "It must have been you who didn’t arrange things properly and failed to communicate clearly. Otherwise, we wouldn’t have needed to come over."

Before Gao Yang could speak, Lavagani laughed and said, "It’s actually not his fault. My conversation with Mr. Peter Ram was quite intense, and then we continued arguing inside the room, so it’s understandable that people misunderstood. But it’s all fine now, let’s all go back."

Gao Yang nodded repeatedly, then said to Abdullah, "Please come in, now that the misunderstanding is cleared, it’s a good time to sit down and have a chat."

Abdullah turned around and said, "Everyone, leave here, clear out completely."

After getting everyone to leave, Abdullah didn’t enter the courtyard. He said to Lavagani and Gao Yang, "I have some matters to attend to, but I’ll host a banquet this evening to entertain you both. We’ll have plenty of time to talk then."

Abdullah was a smart man; he wouldn’t sit down to talk with them at this moment. After finding an excuse to leave, Salim quickly said urgently, "Then I’d better hurry to prepare. Once the banquet is ready, I’ll personally invite you both."

Salim also left in a hurry.

Why was everyone rushing to leave?

Because there were still four bodyguards locked inside. In full view, how should they be carried out or supported out now that they’re lying down? If people saw the bodyguards in miserable shapes, all this pretense would be for nothing.

After everyone had left, Gao Yang gestured and said, "Almost forgot, quickly invite Mr. Lavagani’s bodyguards out."

After speaking, Gao Yang looked at Lavagani with an apologetic expression and said, "Sorry, really sorry, I don’t even know what to say, but I will compensate your bodyguards."

With no outsiders present, Lavagani, who had been beaten up himself, had no interest in pretending any longer. But he couldn’t say much either, so he waved his hand with a disgusted expression and said, "A bodyguard’s job is to take hits, right? Besides, they’re just a few familiar attendants. They’re too useless. I’ll replace them once I’m back. Thanks to you, I see their incompetence. In a place like Yemen, I need real bodyguards; these guys won’t do."

Gao Yang nodded repeatedly and said, "Yes, yes, it turns out you only had a few attendants with you. That’s not okay, professional bodyguards are indeed necessary."

Lavagani’s bodyguards were brought out, each with bruised faces, struggling to walk. Seeing his own bodyguards in such a state, Lavagani finally did not want to keep pretending. With a cold snort, he loudly said, "A bunch of useless people, drive, let’s go!"

Lavagani’s car was right at the door. As Lavagani’s car left, Li Jinfang let out a long breath and said quietly, "That was close, almost turned into a real fight, Brother Yang, how did you handle it?"

Gao Yang smiled slightly and said, "Without a fight, there would be no end. This peaceful situation was created by the fight, close the door; there certainly won’t be any more visitors now."

Glolov also took a long breath and said, "As long as everything’s okay, I was just worried about ruining our situation entirely. How did you resolve it? Just apologized?"

Gao Yang laughed, "Apologize? No way, gave him a beating first, then offered a way out, isn’t that how it was resolved? We agreed that today’s events are as if they didn’t happen. He tacitly agrees to our presence as long as we don’t overstep and challenge Iran’s control over the Houthis Armed Forces. There’s no detailed negotiation due to tight timelines, so I guess the details will be discussed tonight."

Glolov said in surprise, "After a beating, it’s resolved this way?"

Gao Yang spread his hands and said, "No choice, some people just need a beating to start talking, but I don’t plan to say much to him either. Let’s drag it out until Jim comes; let Jim play word games with them, and we’ll tire them out!"
