In the city, at the Dong family's study.
Dong Guangming glared angrily, swept the items on the table to the ground, and, still not satisfied, kicked the table.
When Dong Baozhu returned home, covering her face and crying, she saw this scene and was immediately terrified. Oh no! She had almost forgotten about it!
Sure enough, as soon as Dong Guangming saw her return, he looked at her with a gloomy and suppressed anger in his eyes.
"Why did you change my orders today? Huh? Do you know how many people I've lost because of your willfulness?"
God knows, he finally found a good opportunity to make a plan. As long as he killed Xiao Che and his wife, everything could be restored to what it was before!
Since he's so ungrateful, it's not impossible for him to install a puppet ruler himself!
But everything was ruined by her own foolish daughter!
When the news came back, he was so angry he wanted to strangle her!
Dong Baozhu covered her face, feeling a little scared. It was rare for her father to be so angry. Tears welled up in her eyes again. She bit her lower lip and whispered aggrievedly, "Dad! Then why did you lie to me and say that you only wanted to kill that bitch Bai Yajing?"
Then try to win Xiao Che over? You lied to me first! You knew me perfectly well, I…
Her father secretly gave her the order to kill Xiao Che and his wife. If she hadn't been worried and gone to the servants again, she wouldn't have known!
In her moment of desperation, she only thought about saving Xiao Che's life, which is why she secretly changed his orders without telling her father and her subordinates...
At this point, she couldn't continue. After all, what she had just experienced had been a slap in the face, and she couldn't explain it to her father.
Dong Guangming glared at her with disappointment, but seeing the red and swollen handprint on her face, his desire to scold her again faded.
He rubbed his temples, feeling a bit of a headache. "Baozhu, have you forgotten what I taught you? Once you embark on this path, you can't let your emotions cloud your judgment!"
Xiao Che is stubborn and unyielding; there's no point in cooperating with him! Listen to me, once I've dealt with those two, I'll choose a better one for you and help him get a position in the Ministry of State Security.
You can still live a splendid and fulfilling life for the rest of your days!
Upon hearing this, Dong Baozhu stopped arguing. Xiao Che's repeated humiliations had dampened her enthusiasm.
"I understand, Father! I won't be willful anymore! Next time, I'll personally kill those two!"
Her eyes were ruthless, filled with unwavering determination.
Seeing this, Dong Guangming finally felt relieved. "That's more like it! You've finally returned to your old self! Before, I thought he had bewitched you!"
He originally let his daughter pursue Xiao Che because he wanted to bring such a powerful ally into the group. However, his daughter had been in the Ministry of State Security for so long without any results, Xiao Che was getting married, and his investigation was getting deeper and deeper. One day, he would find out about him.
So he simply plotted to kill them.
"If we don't succeed this time, it won't be so easy next time!"
Thinking about this gave him a headache! Training spies in Kyoto was much more difficult than training them in the Northwest!
Having suffered such heavy losses, and with the Northwest region practically wiped out, he's not far from being a commander without any troops left!
This was the result of his collaboration with spies from several other countries!
"Xiao! Che! You deserve to die!"
He was unwilling to accept it; his years of hard work had been almost completely destroyed...
Dong Baozhu didn't dare to utter a sound. Her father was really angry today. If she had dared to say anything unpleasant, her father would have definitely punished her!
"Dad, I'm going back now." Her face was burning with pain, and all she wanted to do was go back and apply the medicine.
Dong Guangming waved his hand, looking somewhat exhausted.
...
Bai Yajing stayed at the Xiao family's house for three days. During this time, Xiao's parents and grandfather rarely came back. When they did, they would bring Bai Yajing gifts or food and drinks.
Of course, she also prepared gifts for the elders, and for Xiao's father, she gave him a health-preserving prescription specially developed for his body.
