Chapter 794: After Suffering Comes Happiness
He had made himself clear.
Gu Qingjiu’s missions in the future definitely wouldn’t be simple and would be fraught with dangers.
But she was about to get married and would soon have a wonderful family.
It was unclear if she would want to experience all these dangers.
Gu Qingjiu’s lips slowly curled in a smile. “Isn’t there a time for retirement? Surely I won’t be made to take on these missions until I grow old, right?”
Lu Ziyang smiled and replied, “The country stipulates that special agents like you will serve in missions for no longer than ten years. After which, you will receive remuneration beyond your dreams. But you must remember that everything you do in these missions is confidential, and you must not divulge it to anybody, including others in the secret base. Not even your future husband, the royal prince of Penalan Helian Niancheng.”
“Once the information is leaked, you will be charged with treason and dealt with.”
It was a precarious scenario.
The future path might be fraught with dangers and difficulties, or they might cover it with fresh flowers all over the hills and wilderness.
Without much hesitation, Gu Qingjiu nodded. “Okay! I agree.”
If she had wanted to lead a stable life from the start, she would not have agreed to join the Ninth Department.
She could very well attain glory with her shooting talent and lead a stable life with Helian Niancheng.
But if one didn’t fight for oneself, how would they know just how interesting their lives could be?
She had experienced death once, so she didn’t fear all these things.
Relieved, Lu Ziyang stuck out his hand towards Gu Qingjiu. “Since that’s the case, I welcome you to join the Ninth Bureau.”
It wasn’t the Ninth Department, but the Ninth Bureau.
An existence she had never heard of.
Gu Qingjiu, however, understood what it meant.
She solemnly shook Lu Ziyang’s hand. “Thank you.”
From that day onwards, her life would officially begin.
Regardless of what the future held for her, Gu Qingjiu wouldn’t have any regrets.

After leaving the secret base, Gu Qingjiu very quickly returned to the villa.
In the future, she wouldn’t need to go to that secret base anymore.
She had already joined an even more mysterious and discrete department. Other than Lu Ziyang, even her other colleagues didn’t know of its existence.
Moreover, she couldn’t tell anyone.
Lu Ziyang made it very clear to her that Helian Niancheng knew about the Ninth Department. But as for the Ninth Bureau, other than the head of state and the members of the Ninth Bureau, no one else knew of its existence.
It might simply not exist, or perhaps it existed anytime and anywhere.
But this was no longer important.
Gu Qingjiu received a call from Gu Qingmo, whom she had not heard from for a while.
“Hey, Qingjiu.”
Gu Qingmo’s voice sounded as crisp and cheerful as ever, but there was also an added sense of confidence and maturity.
Gu Qingmo was no longer the same as before. His hard work had paid off, and he was now a member of the overseas corporation’s headquarters. One more step forward, and he would ultimately realize his value in life.
“Brother...”
Gu Qingjiu was excited to receive Gu Qingmo’s call. “How have you been?”
“Pretty good. I’ve got good news to share with you.” Gu Qingmo could hardly contain his excitement. “I’ve been promoted to Executive Manager. The company is sending me back to China to be in charge of some internal affairs. At present, there are better prospects for me in China. Them sending me back to China proves that they have confirmed me as a core member of the company. Sister, I’m gradually realizing my goal, step by step.”
Gu Qingjiu was incredibly happy to hear such great news.
After suffering comes happiness, everyone got the outcome they deserved.
