It is hard to say whether Lillian's purpose of coming to the imperial capital is really that simple.
But the fact that the girl mentioned just now about marrying Chen Xu piqued Jiang Luoning's interest. He was more curious whether it was Daisy's own decision or Helian Rui's conspiracy, and whether Mrs. Dong knew about it.
"Xu Qiang, you said you've been in the capital for so long, how come you haven't made any progress at all? I really don't know why I fell in love with you in the first place!"
Xu Qiang was obviously the name of this ferocious-looking man. Seeing how relaxed they were talking, it seemed that their relationship must be extraordinary.
"Lillian, you and I are just getting what we need. Don't act so innocent!"
"Okay, okay, but you really didn't find anything?"
Xu Qiang didn't give Lillian a good look and responded directly without caring about her hypocritical identity at all.
"Not really. Your fiancé is having a hot affair with the president of AX Group recently, and Mrs. Dong seems to be planning to continue their relationship!"
"AX Group? Haha, it seems this Chen Xu is quite capable, even being able to establish a connection with AX!"
Clearly, the man was Lillian's spy in the capital, but their focus still seemed to be solely on Chen Xu. They kept talking about Daisy's arranged marriage for Lillian. The sudden involvement of the AX Group piqued the girl's curiosity. The fact that one of the world's top three chaebols was connected to Chen Xu, and Daisy was interfering, made her feel quite challenged.
Seeing the girl's playful expression, it only added a touch of sexiness to her allure. Xu Qiang stood up and walked over to sit next to Lillian. He naturally put his arm around the girl's shoulders, his fingers playing with her curly hair scattered across her chest, very skillfully. But the girl didn't resist, instead, she snuggled into the crook of his neck.
Xu Qiang was delighted by the girl's initiative. He pinched her thigh with his other hand and then continued, "Also, the group of people you asked me to keep an eye on weren't very well behaved the past few days. I even happened to witness the entire process of their kidnapping plan. It was quite a spectacle! But what's certain is that they have nothing to do with Chen Xu."
When the people in the monitoring room heard this, they all tensed up, fearing that Lu Zifan's identity would be discovered. Fortunately, this man named Xu Qiang was not acquainted with Helian Rui's men.
"Kidnapping? Who? And why?" Lillian asked in confusion.
Hearing this, the man didn't stop stroking her. Lillian wasn't shy at all. Instead, she stared at the man with a burning gaze, wanting to know his next answer.
"I don't know. I left after seeing them take the people away. I'm not that bored and would stare at them every day! But I'm curious about the identities of these people. This is your first time in the imperial capital, right? How do you know them?"
Lillian, whose curiosity had just been piqued, did not get the answer she wanted, and her face was full of disappointment. She nestled back into the man's shoulder, and her tone suddenly became coquettish, obviously complaining to the man about her dissatisfaction.
"My mother came here a while ago and said something important. She didn't even attend my birthday party! I just wanted to see who was so important. I thought it was that man named Chen Xu! Since it's not related, then forget it."
Xu Qiang sneered at the words and replied slowly, "There's nothing you can do about me. I can't find them at all now!"
"It doesn't matter, but I secretly contacted the bodyguard my mother secretly sent over to see if I can get any information from him."
Lillian obviously didn't have much patience for people she wasn't interested in, and she didn't care what Xu Qiang had just said about kidnapping. Right now, his focus and purpose seemed to be on Chen Xu, and he didn't know the real purpose of her mother Daisy coming here.
But she took the initiative to contact Daisy's people, which made Xu Qiang still a little puzzled, and questioned;
"Aren't you afraid of being informed?"
After hearing this, Lillian regained her charming and flirtatious expression, acting nonchalant. "I won't give him any benefits, he just listens to me. He's worthless, even if he dies in the imperial capital, no one will care."
Xu Qiang released his arm around the girl, picked up the foreign wine on the table and started drinking it.
"Xu Qiang, you have to help me find a way to get close to that Chen Xu. I don't want to be arranged into a marriage like this. At least let me get some leverage over him. Otherwise, if we really get married, I'll lose all of you handsome men!"
Jiang Luoning was already dizzy from Lillian's crazy talk in the monitoring room. He didn't understand what kind of growing environment could shape the thoughts of a girl like this.
"Little Lolo, you know that girl from Country A is open-minded!" Wilding noticed that Jiang Luoning occasionally cast a look of disdain at him, and he felt a little uneasy, but he still spoke out to defend himself.
Jiang Linghao disagreed with Wilding's explanation. His sister had been in Country A for so long, and she was still obedient. He thought her nonsense was just due to her status as a branch of the Duke's family. "I don't think it's the girls from Country A who are open-minded. It's the capital that gives them the power to be so arrogant!"
"Yes, that's what Big Brother said! But they won't be able to show off for long. Father will take action after we finish."
Wilding is now the most humble among the few people. She just coaxed Jiang Luoning, and she doesn't want to make the eldest brother of the Jiang family angry again, so she can only bow down and make her attitude clear.
"Lillian, I just returned to the capital. How can I have any chance to contact the Dong family or Chen Xu?" Xu Qiang looked unhappy and was very dissatisfied with the girl's unreasonable behavior.
Sensing the change in the man's mood, Lillian took the initiative to stick to the man, took the wine from his hand and took a sip, but did not swallow it. Instead, she directly blocked the man's mouth with her red lips, passing the strong wine in her mouth into the man's mouth. Before leaving, she bit the man's lips lightly, and then collapsed in the man's arms again, saying coquettishly;
"If there is no opportunity, then create one. Isn't that what we always did before?"
Xu Qiang swallowed the liquor in his mouth, put his hands on the girl's waist, and said helplessly but lovingly, "Chen Xu is different from those innocent little boys. I advise you to think it over carefully!"
"Oh, don't worry! The person behind me is a noble from Country A. Anyone who hears this will have to give me some respect!" She obviously didn't care about the man's concern. In her eyes, men were nothing more than those who loved sex, money, and face. If you gave her these three things, there would be no man she couldn't handle.
Perhaps fearing that the man would get jealous, Lillian placed her hand on Xu Qiang's again, patting him gently and soothing him, "Don't worry, no one can threaten your position!"
Xu Qiang did not answer, but leaned over to block the girl's mouth as she continued to chatter.
