"Not yet, I just got President Bai's approval and I'm about to contact them now," Karl redialed the other party's number, mindful of everyone's future, he pressed the speakerphone button.
Surprisingly, the person on the other end was from Country A!
Liang Qiu was shocked and interjected, "You're from Country A?"
"Yes," replied the party. Judging by the voice, the person seemed to be around forty years old.
Liang Qiu's suspicions grew deeper: "I am Liang Qiu, a Songcheng resident."
"Songcheng is a nice place. I'm from the north," said the person on the line.
"Where in the north?" Liang Qiu pressed on.
