In the Khat Room, Gao Yang met Abdullah, as well as Lavagani's successor, Said.
As Iran's highest representative stationed in Yemen, the original Lavagani and Gao Yang were very much at odds, but ever since Gao Yang saved Lavagani and did him a favor by turning him from a prisoner into a hero, the relationship between Lavagani and Gao Yang had become extremely, extremely good.
And as Lavagani's successor, Said had shown strong goodwill toward Gao Yang from the very beginning, but Gao Yang didn't have many chances to meet Said; counting this time, this was only their third meeting.
Gao Yang naturally knew what Abdullah and Said needed.
Abdullah hoped to stabilize the situation in Aden, while Said, as Iran's man in charge in Yemen, had recently suffered several setbacks. He had to hurry to prove himself, but he didn't dare send Iranian soldiers again; if they suffered another major blow, he'd probably have to slink back home in disgrace.
