"Xin Qing!" Zhang Mi ran into the room. "The special forces are here again!"
Anam's face darkened. "It's only been a month and he's already back from his mission?"
"That's right. The enemy is too weak. How could they let him come back alive?" Zhang Mi said angrily.
Xin Qing looked at them with amusement. "This' he 'you're talking about is a big shot in the capital. If he's cursed to death, you two will be sentenced to life in prison."
"Bullets can't kill me, let alone them." A deep male voice rang out. A man in a military uniform walked in through the door. He didn't even look at Zhang Mi, who was baring her teeth at him. He walked straight up to Xin Qing. "I only have three hours. Can I buy you a meal?"
Xin Qing smiled. "If I say no, will I be arrested?"
"No one but me!" Jiang Qianren stared at Xin Qing with sparkling eyes.
Two years ago, he had met her at a party by chance. His heart, which had never been attracted to a woman, had started to beat uncontrollably. This was the first time he had used his authority to investigate someone's past. Then, he had intruded into Xin Qing's life like an invader.
Xin Qing shook her head at Anam. "I'm going to have a meal with Mr. Jiang. You guys can get off work too!"
Jiang Qianren chose a quiet restaurant at the top of the mountain. The two of them sat in a private room by the sea. The night breeze blew in, slightly intoxicating them.
"Why don't you ever turn down my invitations?" Jiang Qianren poured Xin Qing a glass of wine and stared at her with his dark eyes.
Xin Qing tilted her head. "If I say that Xin Enterprises doesn't want to offend the youngest general in history, does that count?"
Jiang Qianren came from a military family with a strong family background. The Jiang family had produced three generals in five generations. In his generation, he was only 23 years old, but he was already the chief of an army. It was said that he had the potential to become the youngest five-star general in history.
The most frightening thing was that his military rank was obtained by himself. It had nothing to do with the Jiang family. He was so young, but he had so many military achievements! Xin Qing didn't want to offend such a man, not to mention that he represented the power of the capital.
"Xin Qing, I'll say it again. Pursuing you is my own business. It has nothing to do with my background or identity. " Jiang Qianren frowned. "I won't force you. I just hope that you can give us a chance."
Xin Qing looked at him. After a few seconds, she said seriously, "I don't know why you chose me. I'm older than you, and I have three children. "After a pause, Xin Qing's gaze became firmer." Most importantly, I have a husband! "
"He's dead." Jiang Qianren stared at her without backing down. "A man who has been missing for three years. Do you still think he's alive?"
"He didn't." Xin Qing looked straight into his eyes.
Three years had made the girl braver. She kept imitating Ying Qingcang, which made Xin Qing look calm and quiet most of the time. Only when she was with Zhang Mi and the others could she be seen with her sweet and clean smile.
"Mr. Jiang," Xin Qing said slowly. "As long as you are a member of the Jiang family, you will never be able to make your own decisions. You said that your pursuit of me has nothing to do with your background or identity. But will your family allow you to be involved with a married woman with children? "Xin Qing leaned against the purple velvet chair. Her eyes were clear and sincere.
Jiang Qianren clenched his fists at the look in her eyes. He had accidentally seen a girl talking to an injured bird in the garden at the banquet. The girl was talking to herself, and the light in her eyes had immediately seduced him. He had never thought that she was the rumored president of Xin Enterprises who had killed her husband.
"That's my business." Jiang Qianren was a little annoyed. Xin Qing always had this attitude whenever they talked about their relationship. Was he so unworthy of her trust? "As long as you agree, leave the rest to me."
Xin Qing put down the knife and fork in her hand. "But..." She gently lifted the corner of her mouth and looked at him with a smile. "I don't like you."
Bang! Jiang Qianren put the cup on the table. "How do you know you don't like me if you haven't tried?" He suddenly stood up, walked over to Xin Qing, and bent down. Xin Qing was encircled in the chair by his arms. Their foreheads were touching, and their hair occasionally tangled in the air.
"Give it a try. Maybe you'll find that I'm a good person, okay?" The man's breath was right in front of her face. Xin Qing could touch his lips if she raised her head. Jiang Qianren reached out and lifted Xin Qing's chin. He was about to kiss her when his face suddenly darkened. He turned to look out of the private room.
Unbeknownst to him, the air had started to flow faster. The faint sound of a fan could be heard.
Xin Qing smiled. "Looks like it's time!"
A helicopter appeared outside the private room. A young man dressed in a camouflage uniform saluted Jiang Qianren. "Sir, we're here to pick you up."
Jiang Qianren had never hated the fact that he was a soldier more than he did at that moment. He grimaced and caught the rope ladder that was thrown at him. He turned to look at Xin Qing and said, "I won't change my mind. I hope you can give me the answer I want the next time we meet!"
Xin Qing watched as the helicopter became a small dot in the sky. Only then did she breathe a sigh of relief. She rubbed her brows, and suddenly a look of grievance flashed across her eyes. Like a child, she pouted and whispered, "Hmph, come back now. If you don't come back now, your wife will be taken away from you!
When she got home, Monica was playing a game with Wangwang. When Wangwang saw her, he jumped at her happily.
"Mommy, give me a kiss!"
Xin Qing picked Wangwang up and kissed his face a few times. Wangwang kissed her back happily, causing Xin Qing's face to be covered in saliva.
Three-year-old Wangwang was still a chubby little boy. When he sat there, he looked like a ball, fair and soft. Everyone who saw his face would want to pinch it, which was why Wangwang hated crowded places.
Now, he was the only child at home. Xunxun was fourteen years old and had chosen to live on campus. No one knew what he said to Asha, but the little girl, who always wanted to go home and stick to Xin Qing, actually agreed to live on campus with them. Naturally, Xiao Rui would not come back. The three children were now living at Caesar Academy and would only go home on weekends.
Wangwang was the happiest one of all. During the day, he would be in kindergarten at the academy. At night, Ah Chul would come to pick him up. He could finally have mommy all to himself. He could even bathe and sleep with mommy at night!
Xin Qing brought a cake for Wangwang. While he was busy eating, Monica quickly whispered, "I heard that person came to see you again?" Monica made a salute.
"We had a meal together," Xin Qing said as she changed her clothes.
Monica looked up at the sky sadly. "Actually, that man is very good!"
"Then I'll introduce him to you!" Xin Qing said seriously. "But what about Anam?"
For the past two years, everyone in Xin Enterprises knew that Monica liked Anam. But Anam was like a block of wood. He did not react at all.
"Pfft..." Monica rolled her eyes at Xin Qing. "What I mean is, that man is the kind that can only be admired from afar. You can't touch him." Xin Qing rolled her eyes. "Xin Qing, let me ask you something. If A Cang was not around, would you choose that Jiang Qianren?"
"There are no ifs. I have A Cang."
"Then... then what if..." Monica did not know how to put it.
Xin Qing glanced at her. "A Cang will definitely come back."
Monica touched her nose and did not dare to say anything. "Oh my God!" Xin Qing's eyes were so scary right now. They were just like A Cang's...
A few days later, Siman Rong did indeed make a move.
"She snatched a company that we were going to buy." Anam handed the documents to Xin Qing. Zhang Mi tapped on her laptop. "The company we originally planned to buy is a small technical company that specializes in collecting natural pearls in the deep sea. If you didn't work with CK and need a source of pearls, we wouldn't have paid attention to such a small company."
Xin Qing tapped her fingers on the table. "So, she did it on purpose."
"Your design for the next season will focus on pearls. CK and we agreed on this last month. What a coincidence. She just had to buy a company that we were interested in. It's obvious that she did it on purpose. "
"We shouldn't have any problems. It seems that someone from CK leaked the plan." Xin Qing thought for a moment. "Are there any similar companies?"
Zhang Mi shook her head. "Yes, but they're not as skilled as this company. Last year's biggest black pearl was found by them."
"Haha!" Xin Qing laughed. "Then let's not look for them. Let's wait!"
Ah Nan furrowed his brows. "Miss, you mean …"
"Yes. We haven't been able to find out who's behind Siman Rong. Now that she's taken the initiative to make a move, we'll wait and see what she's going to do next." Xin Qing's eyes lit up. "If I'm not wrong, she'll be in contact with CK soon. When that time comes, we won't have to do anything. The person behind this will appear on his own."
As she spoke, Xin Qing's computer sent a video call message. Xin Qing took a look and accepted the call.
"Hi! Aunties! Thank you for your hard work! "
A delicate little baby appeared in the video call. She looked at them with her big, black eyes. Her long and thick eyelashes looked like wings as she blinked.
"Wow! Liuliu! " Zhang Mi rushed over, but the person in the video suddenly changed. Chen Huan appeared with two dark circles under her eyes. Xin Qing was startled.
"What... what's wrong with you?"
Chen Huan's face was almost pressed against the camera. She waved her hands and shouted, "I don't want to spend another day with Boss Wan. I'm going to find you!"
"Why?" Xin Qing and Zhang Mi asked in unison.
Chen Huan looked like she was going to throw caution to the wind. She pulled her collar open, revealing red and purple kiss marks.
"Hiss!" It seemed like the battle was very intense...
"That beast. He tortures me every day," Chen Huan complained. Xin Qing and Zhang Mi's faces suddenly changed. Zhang Mi swallowed and said, "Well, that proves that Boss Wan loves you. It's good for a married couple to be harmonious."
"Bah," Chen Huan said bitterly. "He can go find whoever he wants. I'm not going to serve him anymore!"
A sinister voice came from behind. "Is that so? You don't care about me."
