On the 29th of the Lunar New Year, on the high-speed train to Qinshan …
Zhao Yu and Miao Ying sat in the soft and comfortable first-class seats, looking at each other without saying a word.
There was another woman sitting on Zhao Yu's other side.
Although this woman looked a little haggard and dressed in ordinary clothes, she was extremely outstanding, especially with her near-perfect figure.
This woman was none other than Xi Wei's daughter, Xi Mengna!
At that moment, Xi Mengna was lying motionless on the seat with her arms as a pillow. Zhao Yu didn't know if she was asleep or just resting with her eyes closed.
Zhao Yu looked at this beautiful woman, but he couldn't say anything.
Miao Ying could feel Zhao Yu's helplessness. She held Zhao Yu's strong arm tightly, rested her head on his shoulder, and fell into deep thought …
Sigh …
This is all my karma …
Zhao Yu recalled the big fight he had with his father-in-law in Shanghai a few days ago, and his heart was filled with mixed feelings.
"Old Miao, are you crazy?" Zhao Yu shouted hysterically. "It's one thing to release Xi Mengna, but why? Why do you have to let her follow me?
"Did you take the wrong medicine, or did you get kicked in the head by a donkey?" Zhao Yu was so angry that he almost grabbed Miao Kun's collar. "Think about it! Xi Mengna always thought that her father's death had something to do with me, and now you want her to come home with me for the New Year!
Aren't you afraid that she'll know all about our family situation and use my family to take revenge on me? "
"Zhao Yu," Miao Kun said. "You have to look at the big picture. This is the only way. Xi Mengna asked for it herself. She said that she has no one to rely on here, and you are her only friend!"
"F * ck, you believe her words? If she says she's the emperor, would you still buy her a dragon robe? " Zhao Yu was so angry that he couldn't speak coherently. "I don't care! You can do whatever you want with her, but don't let her follow me!
"I can't spend the New Year with such a ticking time bomb!"
"Zhao Yu," Miao Kun said. "The reason why we made this decision was after careful consideration. You see, it's almost the end of the year, and we're already short on manpower. If you let Xi Mengna follow you, we can save a lot of resources!
"Don't worry, this woman has turned over a new leaf," Miao Kun said. "Experts have evaluated her. Besides, we have arranged so many agents around you, so you don't have to worry about your safety!"
"This … Is this a matter of safety?" Zhao Yu asked. "This … This is simply stupid behavior.
"I..." He pointed at himself agitatedly. "I'm so weak-willed. You let Xi Mengna follow me. Aren't you trying to sow discord between me and Meow Meow?
"If Miaomiao and I fall out because of this woman, is it worth it?"
"Don't worry," Miao Kun said calmly. "I've already discussed it with Miao Miao, and she agreed. She also promised to help me look after Xi Mengna and you …"
"What the …" Zhao Yu covered his face. "This joke is too much, isn't it? If I bring Xi Mengna back to my hometown, how am I supposed to introduce her to others? "
"Just say that she's a foreign friend of yours," Miao Kun said with a faint smile. "Zhao Yu, it's useless to say anything. The decision has already been made.
Everyone agreed that letting Xi Mengna follow you is the most suitable choice! "
"Me? Most suitable? "Zhao Yu was going crazy." Why? How am I suitable? "
"Of course you are suitable," Miao Kun said seriously. "Didn't you bring her back? Of course, you're the most suitable person to supervise her! "
"Suitable my ass!" Zhao Yu waved his fist. "I brought her back. Who am I doing this for? You can't let me take responsibility for this! "
"It's okay, you don't have to worry …" Miao Kun said, taking pleasure in Zhao Yu's misfortune. "It's just for the New Year. After the New Year, when everyone is back at work, we'll arrange a good place for Xi Mengna.
"Now, you just have to take care of her!" Miao Kun said. "Think about it. She's a girl, and her father and sister are gone. Now, she's all alone. Just treat it as a good deed!
"I believe in you. You are an upright person, a noble person, a person who has transcended vulgar interests. With you supervising Xi Mengna, you'll definitely be able to influence her with your righteousness. You'll help her find the right direction and the light …"
"You …" Zhao Yu narrowed his eyes. "You're like a swindler. I really want to … Oh, I want to beat you up!"
"Alright, Zhao Yu," Miao Kun said with a sinister smile. "Since the decision has been made, you have to take it as a task and complete it with all your heart!
"When I come back for the New Year, I'll give you credit …"
…
"Phew …"
On the high-speed train, Zhao Yu took a deep breath. He stroked Miao Ying's hair as he looked at the scenery outside the train window. He was lost in thought.
Ever since the Broken Arm Safe Case, he hadn't dared to open a hexagram.
After all, it was going to be the New Year soon. If he opened a Qiankun hexagram, then his annual leave would be canceled.
So, in order to spend the holiday in peace, he hadn't opened a hexagram.
However, even if he didn't open a hexagram, it didn't prevent adventures from happening. For example, his superiors asking him to take Xi Mengna back to her hometown for the New Year was very strange.
What is this?
In fact, even though Zhao Yu was extremely unwilling, he more or less understood it in his heart.
The reason why his superiors asked him to take Xi Mengna with him was not necessarily because of Miao Kun. There must have been careful consideration from his superiors.
First, he was more familiar with Xi Mengna, so his superiors would be more at ease to let him supervise Xi Mengna.
Second, Xi Mengna took the initiative to ask to follow him. This meant that Xi Mengna was dependent on him, which made it easier for him to supervise her.
Third, the superiors might still be worried about Xi Mengna's authenticity. Letting Xi Mengna follow him was also to test her and see if she had completely repented.
Fourth, because of the Regal Building, the Secret Service had always implemented the strictest protection on him. So, letting Xi Mengna follow him was a good choice.
This way, he could not only guard against enemies, but also monitor Xi Mengna.
Sigh …
Karma, Karma!
Zhao Yu sighed softly in his heart. A long time ago, he had some kind of premonition that something would happen between him and Xi Mengna.
Now it seemed that the premonition had come true. He really didn't know what would happen if he brought such a woman back to his hometown.
How would the villagers react when they saw her?
Also, he had wanted to find an opportunity to invite his old friends in Qinshan to have a good gathering, but now it seemed that it would be difficult!
Taking Xi Mengna with him would undoubtedly add a lot of taboos and concerns, including talking to friends and family, and even getting close to his girlfriend, Miao Ying.
