"What are you thinking about?"
Fu Linxiao put his arms around the girl's graceful waist, and a low and pleasant voice came out slowly. Jiang Luoning couldn't help but shiver. The man thought that his sudden voice scared the little girl, and he hurriedly stroked the top of the little girl's head to comfort her; but when he saw the red and dazzling tip of the ear, he realized that he had leaned on Jiang Luoning's shoulder when he spoke just now, and it seemed that his light breath accidentally blew into the little girl's ear.
Afraid that Jiang Luoning would feel even more embarrassed, Fu Linxiao just pursed his lips and smiled without saying anything, waiting for the little girl to calm down.
"No, it's okay." Perhaps because the room was too hot, Jiang Luoning's cheeks flushed uncontrollably.
Ah Xing, who witnessed all this, didn't realize anything was wrong and still looked concerned.
"Sister, you were clearly in trouble just now. My brother-in-law has been watching you for ten minutes, but you didn't react at all. If this happened under normal circumstances..." As the boy chattered on, Jiang Luoning's cheeks became increasingly red.
"Axing, Ning'er may be too tired. Go buy her some food!" Seeing Jiang Luoning's embarrassment, Fu Linxiao couldn't bear it and interrupted his long speech.
Ah Xing, whose IQ dropped to zero again, suddenly turned into a hardworking and dedicated flower protector. He walked out of the room without saying a word.
Jiang Luoning couldn't help but understand Fu Linxiao's intention in sending Ah Xing away. After a moment of concentration, he finally expressed his concerns. "I just noticed that Dong Jiaxue's expression was a little strange. I'm worried that she might have received a hint from Helian Rui, or that she might be secretly planning something."
Although Fu Linxiao had been staring at the surveillance screen, his eyes were always on Jiang Luoning and Axing. Even when the little girl was checking Dong Siqing's wound, he was very manly and used a piece of black cardboard to cover the half of the screen on the bed tightly, for fear of accidentally seeing any eye-catching scenes, so he did not notice Dong Jiaxue's condition just now.
After Jiang Luoning's reminder, Fu Linxiao walked to the computer and retrieved the footage that had just happened. After observing it for a moment, he had the same idea as the little girl.
Jiang Luoning looked at Fu Linxiao with a pleading look, as if trying to find the answer from his face, but Fu Linxiao was silent for a long time and couldn't figure out the reason.
"Dong Jiaxue wasn't in a very high mood when she left, but she was still relatively normal. But now she looks like she's been upset or struggling with something. As for who or what could have made her so distracted, I really don't understand."
Fu Linxiao looked at the little girl, who was mumbling to herself, her features almost wrinkled together, and still looked worried. He tried to persuade her, "If you can't figure it out, then forget about it. Don't force yourself into a dead end! The most important thing for you to do now is to eat something and get a good night's sleep. The rest can be dealt with later after you've regained your energy. We've already forced Helian Rui back, so I think the rest will be resolved soon!"
With Fu Linxiao's comfort, Jiang Luoning finally collected his messy thoughts. He nodded obediently and returned to the sofa, waiting for Ah Xing to bring back food. Seeing the little girl's mood gradually recovering, the man finally felt relieved and continued to struggle with the documents on the desktop.
Dongfang Family Old House
There were three men with different expressions sitting in the living room: Dongfang Han, Jiang Linghao and Wilding.
"Uncle, are you really going to Country A?" Jiang Linghao looked at Dongfang Han in front of him with a worried look on his face. He still had some concerns about the plan the man had just mentioned.
"Well, the Duke and his men did this for us. I can't bear to see Duke Watson being criticized for a minor mishandling of this matter. Wilding, I don't want you to get involved in this either."
Dongfang Han personally called to invite Wilding here. He heard from Axing that the Duke of Watson and his family had been secretly helping Jiang Luoning to keep an eye on things in Country A. Today he wanted to express his gratitude, but Wilding blurted out Jiang Luoning's plan. Dongfang Han thought that Wilding and the others were just helping to collect intelligence information, but he didn't expect that there was such a big game behind it. Although it was very helpful to them, he was still worried about the status of the man's family, so he planned to go to Country A in person to let him deal with it, which led to this dispute.
Wilding also looked at the man with disapproval, his eyes filled with unspeakable emotion. After hearing his statement, he could no longer suppress his inner thoughts, his words becoming increasingly impatient and even his tone becoming uncontrollably heavier.
"Uncle Dongfang, you can't think like that! My father's life was saved by Ah Xing and Luo Luo. At that time, the royal nobles were fighting openly and secretly. If it weren't for Anye's support, our Watson family might not have existed. Now that you have encountered such a thing, how could we be afraid of being implicated and stand by and watch?"
Noticing Wilding's agitation, Dongfang Han calmed down and patiently explained, "Wilding, I know you've always been good to Ah Xing and Ning Ning, but he's still a branch of your family after all. I know that in Country A, families are the primary organization. If you really take action against them, you'll inevitably be criticized, which will be a threat to your father's established prestige."
In fact, Dongfang Han's consideration was not wrong. They were well aware of the importance of Spyker's position in Country A, and it went without saying how many people were eyeing him. These people were hoping that he would make some mistakes so that they could take the opportunity to suppress him. If the outside world really knew that he had eliminated the side branches of his family, it was inevitable that someone with ulterior motives would seize the opportunity to pull him down from his high position.
Seeing that he really couldn't convince the stubborn Dongfang Han, Wilding had no choice but to take out his cell phone to contact his father who was far away in Country A. After answering the call, he completely ignored the surprise of the two people in front of him and told them everything in a few words. Then, in the face of Jiang Linghao's horrified eyes, he handed the phone to Dongfang Han, indicating that he should negotiate with the person on the phone in person.
