Jiang Can gently hugged Huo Zhixing, resting her head against his chest.
Hearing his strong heartbeat, she felt safe and warm.
"Honey, did Zhixin find out that you put a listening device in her bag?"
"I don't know," Huo Zhixing said in a low voice, "and we can't let her know."
"Honey..." Jiang Can smiled sweetly, "It seems we really are on the same wavelength and think alike!"
"What?"
Jiang Can smiled without saying anything, turned around and took out a small, USB-like device from her bag, then plugged it into the computer.
Huo Zhixing was taken aback. "What is this?"
“It’s similar to your listening device.” She turned to look at him, “but this is a communication device unique to the Southeast Asian military, capable of accessing the contents of a mobile phone.”
"I've been using this device for a while now. Let's wait a bit; we should get news soon. Hmm... if not tonight, we should get it first thing tomorrow morning."
Huo Zhixing's focus wasn't on the last few sentences, but rather on the words "Southeast Asian military," which brought his thoughts to an abrupt halt...
It is said that the Yin family is respected even by the royal family in Southeast Asia, but it turns out that they really have an inseparable relationship with the military.
So... if Princess Yin is unhappy, then the entire Nanyang military is unhappy?
Huo Zhixing swallowed hard.
When they got married in that dilapidated house, battered by wind and rain, he never imagined that the girl who was sent as a substitute bride was not a soft and docile little white rabbit at all...
She's clearly a queen who can command the wind and rain.
So, he really was going to be "the king's man".
"Honey, I'm talking to you, can't you hear me?"
"Oh, oh..." Huo Zhixing snapped out of his daze and chuckled softly, "I heard you!"
"Grandpa is right, you're always acting so silly these days!"
"Really?" Huo Zhixing straightened up, ruffled her hair, and smiled, his expression revealing his undisguised affection for her.
"By the way, honey, when did you get this thing?"
"Nie Xin got it for me," Jiang Can smiled. "Of course, I also traded some good resources with him to get it!"
What benefits did you promise him?
"Tang Yilan's next movie! I said, no matter who Director Tang chooses, we'll push him to be the male lead."
“Can Can…” Huo Zhixing grinned mischievously, “You’re showing favoritism!”
"You don't want them to be together?"
"But what about Old Ye?"
"Well..." Jiang Can hadn't decided yet.
But the person who helped Tang Yilan through that difficult time was Nie Xin.
Tang Yilan had liked Ye Chen for so many years, but she never received any response.
Can love that goes unrequited be considered love?
"Honey, you're still going to side with your brother, aren't you?"
"Of course not!" Huo Zhixing exclaimed, his survival instincts kicking in. "I'm on your family's side!"
Jiang Can chuckled.
“It doesn’t matter which side you’re on,” she said softly. “It’s a matter between the three of them. Let them develop naturally. We outsiders can’t help much, so we might as well just wait and see.”
"Um."
“But…” Jiang Can tugged at his collar, “No matter what, you must stand with me!”
"Of course!" Huo Zhixing smiled gently.
His little woman is so possessive; he will always belong to her, and no one else can touch him, take him away, or even think about him.
This damn possessiveness—he absolutely loves it!
The man's hand touched her waist, the air gradually warmed, and her sweet fragrance kept wafting into his nose.
He was itching to do it, but he desperately suppressed the thought.
She's pregnant, but it's not a stable time yet, so he can't touch her casually.
"Wife..." Huo Zhixing's voice was slightly hoarse as his warm lips pressed against her earlobe, "There's still a long time to go, it'll be tough..."
It took Jiang Can a moment to realize what he meant. She playfully punched him with her little fist and scolded, "You only have this on your mind!"
Huo Zhixing lowered his head and remained silent after being scolded by her.
Her heart softened instantly, and with a blush, she whispered in his ear, "The doctor said it'll be fine after three months..."
"What?"
Huo Zhixing was both surprised and delighted when he heard this.
In fact, when he first learned that Jiang Can was pregnant, he dug out all the posts and notes he had previously taken from parenting forums.
Not only did I organize it once, but I also kept up with the times by looking at the latest posts on parenting forums.
He did his homework thoroughly, almost becoming a semi-expert on maternal and infant health, but he never thought to check the information about "it's okay after three months"...
"Wife, is it true?" His voice trembled slightly.
Jiang Can smiled, her face flushed, and nodded.
"You asked the doctor?"
Jiang Can was stunned, "..."
"Honey, you even ask this? It seems like this is all you can think about!"
"Huo Zhixing!"
Jiang Can was already easily embarrassed, and after he made such a fuss, she blushed even more and chased after him, hitting him repeatedly.
Huo Zhixing laughed and pulled her into his arms, letting her hit him.
The two played around for a while, then checked if any new files had been transferred to the computer. Suddenly, the computer beeped, indicating that a new file had been imported.
Jiang Can rushed over to check.
The file is quite large, and importing it will take some time. After importing, it prompts me that I need a password to log in.
Jiang Can simply picked up her phone and called Nie Xin.
"Cousin, how did you know I was free tonight?" Nie Xin's voice was loud and clear, indicating that she was in a good mood.
"Didn't you finish filming your scenes? Now you should rest and recuperate, and go on a few variety shows to earn some money."
"Do you think I look like someone who's short of money?"
Jiang Can stuck out her tongue and couldn't help but chuckle.
She didn't have time to waste words with him and asked directly, "What password did you need for that device you set up for me last time?"
"Oh, you found out about someone's phone call records?"
"Um."
"Cousin, to be honest, it's a bit unethical for you to check someone's phone."
"You talk too much!" Jiang Can raised her voice. "Just tell me, what's the password?!"
Nie Xin: "...Just say it, why are you being so fierce?"
Jiang Can laughed. Of course she had to be fierce; otherwise, she wouldn't be able to control these men!
After obtaining the password from Nie Xin, she quickly entered it into the computer, and the file was successfully imported.
Huo Zhixing moved the mouse, his palms slightly sweaty.
When he opened the first folder, his mind went blank, and he was so shocked that he couldn't say a word.
