"Ah...that's right."

As a girl who is completely amateur in military affairs, Su Xue only realized that this was the case when Long Yun said it. She blinked her watery eyes and showed a relaxed look.

After all, what does the lover think about her life experience? She thinks this is very important.

As Long Yun put his hands on it, the little girl's breathing became a little rapid. She barely sat upright, and made a little embarrassed to break free from her lover's arms, continuing the topic just now:

"First, don't do this, people have to continue to say it. - It's true. You know that my parents are not in China for a long time, mainly because my father has to perform tasks abroad all year round. Regarding his father's specific work, he was an intelligence officer from the "Soviet National Security Council". After coming to China and changing his nationality, he has been working in the intelligence system. As for the specific situation, as a child, I naturally cannot ask more questions, and even if I spy on it, I can't get much information.

So now, I just vaguely know that my father and mother are both in Myanmar, and it seems that they are helping and supporting the progress of a secret scientific research project in the local area, that's all."

“The 'Soviet National Security Council'…isn’t that the 'KGB'?”

"Yeah, yeah."

It was of course a surprise to Long Yun when he heard that Su Xue's father was actually a former "KGB" agent. He didn't expect that this prospective father-in-law would be his colleague - although he was in two different parallel worlds, which made him raise his eyebrows in surprise. However, when he saw Su Xue in front of him, he looked as usual and didn't seem to know the subtle meaning of it, so he gave a little question straightforwardly:

"Su Xue. Since your father is a former KGB staff member, he is a Chinese national and continues to do intelligence work. This is really unusual."

"Is that true?... Well, it seems to be the same,"

Although he had not used his consciousness to spy, Su Xue thought for a moment and understood the implicit meaning in Long Yun's words, "What you mean is, why does the country trust my father and ask him to join the intelligence department, right? I really don't know this. After all, I also know that intelligence work must be absolutely confidential, even for my family."

"Oh...that's right, that's normal."

Long Yun nodded very well with nodding Su Xue's innocence. He knew that the nature of the work of intelligence agencies is often like this: not only should we raise a twelve-point spirit at work, but even our family members cannot reveal the slightest truth. The reason for such an industry rule is that the principle of confidentiality is one; on the other hand, since the family members are not aware of it, they will not be involved. Once there is something unexpected, everyone will tacitly abide by the unwritten bottom line of "the disaster is not as good as the family members".

Thinking of this, Long Yun subconsciously glanced at the spacious living room with soft light. He now figured out a lot of things, such as why the villa of Su Xue’s family is very large, but there is no photo of his family outside; and why her parents are away all year round, but they hardly contacted their daughter who lives alone in Beijing.

But just as he thought about this, a new question arose in his mind. After thinking about it, he had no conclusions, so he simply asked his lover directly:

"Well, Su Xue, since your parents are away all year round, they should be in Myanmar at this time, why don't you go to reunite with your family? Is it because of work?"

"Ah, I actually think about it too. Sometimes I miss my parents very much,"

While talking, the little girl raised her glass and sipped a few sips of tea, and then gently placed it on the table, "But, Long Yun, you must not reveal this matter.

Think about it, although my father has become a Chinese national, he was originally a KGB agent. He worked abroad for the domestic intelligence system. In terms of confidentiality or risk prevention, the intelligence agencies will not trust him 100%. So, as the only child of my parents, I have to stay in China forever. Even if I go abroad for a short time, just like before, I have to be accompanied by the national security department.”

"Accompany?...then, isn't that just surveillance?"

Long Yun suddenly understood what Su Xue said, which means that she is a "hostage" who went abroad to work as her parents?

This was obviously a very inhuman approach, which did make him feel very angry at the beginning; but thanks to the experience of traveling through parallel worlds, not to mention that the Soviet Union joined the KGB organization in that world, Long Yun thought about it and felt relieved. Originally, it was completely different from what ordinary people imagined, "do not doubt people, do not doubt people", and the principle of the intelligence system is precisely "doubt to doubt people, do not doubt people", which has nothing to do with Su Xue's father's personal loyalty, but an insurance that ensures the smooth progress of work and does not cause major mistakes.

Long Yun had already thought about it and felt the sudden change in his lover's position, so Su Xue smiled and nodded:

“Yes, it’s not impossible to say ‘surveillance’.

However, I can understand it personally, and this kind of accompanying has not affected my daily life. Besides, your thoughts are not entirely correct: In addition to keeping monitoring me, people from Guoan are also protecting my safety almost all the time."

"Oh——and so: in this way, your parents can keep you in Beijing and go out for secret missions, right?"

"Yes. And this has been happening for many years, and I'm completely used to it."

"kindness……"

Hearing Su Xue's explanation, Long Yun nodded in contemplation. He could naturally understand this arrangement of the state secret front.

And thinking about this, he glanced at the little girl beside him thoughtfully, and wandered around the beauty in this world for a moment. He felt that this might not be a good thing; otherwise, such a delicate and stunning girl was working alone in Beijing, and working in an art circle with mixed mud and sand. To say that there are many threats, it is really not easy to ensure absolute safety even if she consciously spys.

Just like, the previous storm in the Newcomer Award final...

"Oh, Long Yun, stop thinking about those unpleasant past events."

Seeing the lover's thoughts, Su Xue sneered and raised her hand and shook his arm, "After all those have passed. Besides, I was really angry and unhappy at that time; but as you thought, when I visited Tang Wenyuan, my personal safety was still guaranteed, otherwise I would not take the risk that I could not bear.

If he was really dizzy at that time and would be detrimental to me, then the people of Guoan would naturally break into the door and bring him to justice, and then he would really have a big trouble."

"Oh,——Haha!"

Thinking of Tang Wenyuan being knocked down and handcuffed her bracelet, Long Yun first laughed a few times before giving Su Xue a serious instructing him:

"Okay! But even if you are accompanied and monitored, you should try to be careful; after all, in today's society, it is still a bit dangerous for a beautiful little girl like you."

"Oh, 'outstanding beauty' or something..."

Hearing the praise from his lover, the little girl lowered her head shyly, "Anyway, I know. During the time you are traveling far away, I will protect myself, and Ling's, you don't have to worry about this."

...And Ling?

Hearing Su Xue's subconscious words, Long Yun felt a little strange in his heart. What was this little girl thinking?

But he hasn't had time to think about it so much now. Now that he has basically figured out the situation of Su Xue's parents, he has to return to the topic just now, that is, how should he deal with Sophia Kochakina who appears in the parallel world?

With the previous "historical twist" incident of Lyudmira, he found this matter a bit tricky:

"Okay, then go back to Sofia - Oh sorry, I'm talking about the Sofia Kochakina in the parallel world. Since I've confirmed that she is a 'projection' of your mother in the parallel world, then... Then the question is, how do I deal with it?"

"Yeah, that's it..."

After ending his parents' topic, he fell into a confusion as Long Yun asked questions. Su Xue also tilted her head in a daze and meditated, but for a moment she couldn't say anything. Yes, even if she found a woman like her mother in a parallel world, what does this mean? What should Long Yun do?

After thinking about it for a long time, I couldn't figure it out. The little girl frowned and pursed her lips, and after a while, she spoke hesitantly:

"I think, Long Yun, from the 'Ludmira Incident', the parallel world you traveled through may affect reality, so isn't this a bit scary: If...what happened to Sophia Kochakina in the parallel world, it would change the trajectory of the real world, wouldn't it affect my mother?"

"Yes. This is what I'm worried about, although it seems unlikely."

After thinking about his lover for a long time, Long Yun's current worries were the same as Su Xue: Although he was not sure how many characters could correspond to the real world and the parallel world, he only observed two of them now.

Then make an assumption that "what happened to people in parallel worlds will sooner or later affect reality." Such assumption is not impossible - but Sophia's situation is obviously different from Lyudmira. The former is still a dead person so far, and the so-called "history" that has been changed has extremely limited impact on the "present"; but Sophia is Su Xue's mother, and she lives well now, so...
