"Chen Feng, now is not the time for jokes. If we can't resolve this issue, both our National Security Agency and the Special Activity Unit will face reprimands from above. Huaxia will be ridiculed by those overseas, and our government will lose face. I know you have no fondness for the National Security people, but I can assure you they will definitely not bother you again in the future," Tang Ning assured.
"Director Chen, it's not that I don't want to help you. As you know, when you were suspended for an organizational investigation, people from National Security forcefully intervened in the Special Activity Unit's business. Even I was subjected to their investigation and surveillance. Caesar made it clear back then that he would no longer cooperate with your unit's personnel. I'm afraid it will be difficult to persuade him this time," Chen Feng explained.
