Chapter 2315: Chapter 2291: The Unfinished Melody

Even when a phone rings during a concert hall performance, it is quite a mood-killer, let alone at a moment so important, so sweet, and even so sacred to the two of them.

Gao Yang clumsily took out the phone intending to hang up, but before he did, he realized it was Glewatov calling.

Glewatov is in Yemen.

Glewatov calling indicated that there was a change in Yemen.

Gao Yang ultimately can’t refuse to answer such an important call.

The call connected, but Gao Yang didn’t speak immediately. He whispered apologetically to Yelena, "I’m sorry, dear. I’m truly sorry. But this call is very important. Please give me two minutes, I’ll be back shortly."

Yelena didn’t speak, she just nodded lightly. Gao Yang quickly left the piano room to take the call.

Yelena had been looking at the piano keys, but at this moment she reached out to gently wipe away the tears from the corner of her eye. She couldn’t help but turn her head towards the door, thinking that this piece of music might not be completed.

Gao Yang’s feelings towards this call were also complicated. He walked outside, felt that Yelena couldn’t hear anymore, and whispered, "Hello."

"Is it convenient to talk?"

"Now it is. Go ahead."

Glewatov said seriously, "The opportunity we’ve been waiting for has arrived. We can launch at any time. Now, I need you to bring a batch of skilled personnel here as soon as possible."

Gao Yang whispered, "Is it urgent?"

"Yes, the sooner the better."

Gao Yang exhaled lightly, "Alright, I’ll come over immediately."

Glewatov said seriously, "I’ve communicated this news to you first, next I’ll inform Yarebin. I hope you all are prepared."

Gao Yang whispered, "Should we go straight to Yemen, or can we assemble in Somalia before heading to Yemen?"

Glewatov whispered, "Now, immediately. The situation is like this—we can’t control the people here, but there’s an opportunity. The Yemeni Government is determined to reduce fuel subsidies. The public will be disgruntled. The Houthis are ready to seize the opportunity. We don’t know which day exactly the change will occur, but we must seize this good opportunity."

"Is it uncontrollable? I mean, can’t we hold the timing of the launch in our own hands?"

Glewatov said helplessly, "We can only take advantage of the situation to increase our influence, but we can’t completely control the Houthis Armed Forces. Please, there are only three of us here. We’ve been here less than three months, and the situation isn’t as optimistic as you wish."

Gao Yang said seriously, "Understood. I’ll take people to head over first; I’ll leave today. Where should we go?"

"Sana’a. It’s best to get there before the airport closes. If it closes, things will be much more troublesome."

Gao Yang checked his watch and immediately said, "Understood. I’ll take some people to get to Sanaa Airport as quickly as possible."

After hanging up, Gao Yang shook his head and looked helplessly at the door of the piano room.

What needs to be faced must be faced. Gao Yang tugged out several hairs, finally gathered the courage, and walked toward the piano room, opening the door.

"I’m really sorry. We can continue, dear."

Gao Yang wore an apologetic smile, sitting back down at the piano. Yelena also placed her hands back on the piano keys, but after just a brief moment, she sighed, withdrew her hands, slightly turned, and bowed her head, saying, "You’re leaving, aren’t you?"

Gao Yang was silent for a while and whispered, "I’m sorry. I’m afraid I really have to leave."

"When?"

"Today, um, immediately."

Yelena sighed lightly, turned, and embraced Gao Yang, whispering, "I’ll play it for you when you return. Now isn’t the right time, considering the situation."

The mood was completely gone; indeed, it wasn’t suitable. Gao Yang felt both heartache and guilt. He held Yelena close. After they embraced for a long time, Gao Yang softly said, "I’m sorry, I need to make a few calls."

Yelena nodded, released Gao Yang and stood up, whispering, "I’ll pack your luggage for you. You need some clothes to change."

Yelena left, leaving Gao Yang alone in the piano room. He pulled out his phone to call Glolov. After Glolov answered, he whispered, "Big Dog, we have to go. There’s an opportunity in Yemen, things might launch anytime, so we need to depart directly for Sana’a."

Glolov whispered, "I saw the news. Something unbelievable happened in Iraq, did you know?"

"I did."

"I sensed changes in Iraq; Yemen’s situation should also change, but I didn’t expect it so soon. Can we leave tomorrow?"

Gao Yang smiled bitterly, "I’m afraid not. We have to leave today. Glewatov said it’s urgent—they might launch anytime. With just them three, manpower is way too short."

Glolov sighed, "It’s too rushed. I haven’t even thought out how to say it. Uh, how is Yelena? Did you tell her?"

Gao Yang whispered, "I told her. She’s definitely upset. I didn’t expect it to be so rushed. I planned to send her back to New York and find an opportunity to leave later. Anyway, you prepare. Yelena and I will head to Seattle first, meet with Lucica, then directly fly to New York, and we’ll depart from there together."

Glolov said, "Alright, I’ll notify everyone. There’s still a few hours until you arrive, enough time to do something. Gao, your time is longer over there recently, soothe Yelena well!"

"Understood, I know."

Traveling from America to Yemen would be fastest flying directly across the Atlantic from the East Coast. But for that, Gao Yang would have to fly from the West Coast to the East Coast first, to join the others, and then head to Yemen together, so his time is indeed very tight.

Gao Yang called for a helicopter to pick them up, taking the helicopter from his ranch to the nearest airport was much faster. Then he boarded a private plane that was waiting at the airport, first flying to Seattle.

On the private plane, Yelena and Gao Yang remained seated together, but her mood was very low. Although she tried hard to behave as if she wasn’t that upset, she simply couldn’t do it.

Gao Yang felt heartache watching her. After gently kissing Yelena on her forehead, he whispered, "Don’t worry, I’ll be back very soon. This time it really won’t be too long because we won’t be doing anything too dangerous. The timing might drag out, but relatively, it won’t be that intense. I’ll come back to see you often."

Yelena smiled reluctantly, "Alright, come back early. When you return again, I’ll complete and play the unfinished piece for you."
