Yuan Yuqin raised an eyebrow in surprise: "When did Mr. Guan arrive in Jiangcheng?"
Guan Zhiji said, "I came to discuss a business deal a few days ago." He asked casually, "But why would City Chief Yuan come to a place like this?"
"I have something to take care of." Yuan Yuqin glanced down at his watch. "Remember to give my regards to Grandpa Guan. I have other things to do, so I'll be leaving now."
Guan Zhiji nodded, his smile deepening: "Okay."
Only after Yuan Yuqin and his group left did he leisurely follow behind.
At the police station.
Police officers are questioning the two thieves separately, but both insist they didn't steal anything, and the surveillance footage doesn't show anything at all.
When things reached a stalemate, a direct call came in from the director's office. The police officer responded with several "yes"s before walking up to Yu Wan and Meng Shen and saying, "Please come with me, both of you."
They went straight to the third floor, and the police officers carefully knocked on the door. After receiving permission from inside, they respectfully pushed the door open and entered: "Mayor, Ms. Yu and Mr. Meng have arrived."
Yuan Yuqin nodded slightly: "You can go out now."
"Okay." Before leaving, the police officers couldn't help but glance at Yu Wan and her companion again. They never expected that such an ordinary and inconspicuous theft case could attract the attention of the mayor.
Yu Wan greeted him with a smile: "Uncle Yuan."
Meng Shen: "Uncle Yuan."
"Don't stand, sit down and talk." Yuan Yuqin looked at the two of them gently, paused, and then asked, "Has something happened?"
Yu Wan nodded and placed a small listening device on the table. The device looked like a coin; if she hadn't just taken it apart and discovered the wires and mechanism inside, she might have been fooled.
After the woman bumped into her, she put a coin into her pocket.
But since the kidnapping incident, Yu Wan has become particularly sensitive to being touched by strangers.
Moreover, after she subdued the woman, she discovered that she had thick calluses on her hands, fingers, and palms, marks that could only be left by years of handling a gun.
Therefore, she made a quick decision to notify Yuan Yuqin, because she was worried that the two people were sent by the S organization, after all, the attack in the capital was not long ago.
After listening, the room fell silent.
Yuan Yuqin frowned and said, "Don't worry, leave this to me." If it really is someone from the S organization who has infiltrated Jiangcheng, the consequences would be unimaginable.
"Uncle Yuan, Tang Yue... is there any news about him?" Yu Wan forced a faint smile: "He hasn't been heard from since he left last time." That bastard on the Peace Ship won't say anything, he's utter trash.
[...] The Peace ship is truly wronged. [System regulations stipulate that the lives of mission targets cannot be monitored arbitrarily.]
"Hmph, trash."
[...] Goodbye! Logging off!
The host just knows how to bully it.
Yuan Yuqin shook his head: "I haven't received any news either. You probably know he's on a mission, right?"
Yu Wan nodded.
Yuan Yuqin continued, "Tang Yue has actually participated in special forces training, and his skills are stronger than the average person, so you don't need to worry."
He only hinted at the point; that was all he could reveal.
Tang Yue was never an ordinary person. His background, the blood feud of his parents, and his passion for serving the country and its people... Therefore, he was by no means just an ordinary group president.
"Master Yue is so amazing!" Meng Shen exclaimed in amazement, feeling genuine admiration.
Upon hearing this, Yu Wan's face remained expressionless, but the fingers resting on her knees curled up almost imperceptibly, and her heart ached slightly.
She thought to herself, "I find it hard to stick with Sanda, Taekwondo, and free fighting, let alone official formal training. How much suffering must that person have endured?"
Yu Wan pursed her lips, her voice still firm: "If you find any relevant information, please be sure to let me know."
“You…” Yuan Yuqin stared at her for half a minute, knowing how stubborn this young girl was, and finally sighed softly and nodded: “Okay.” But in his heart, he thought that it wouldn’t matter if he revealed a little bit of unimportant information.
-
The two returned to the lobby on the first floor. The case was closed, and even the brave young girl had already left. Only that annoying uninvited guest remained, leaning against the Maybach.
Pretending not to notice the two disapproving looks from across the room, Guan Zhiji smiled faintly and said, "I wonder if I have the honor of driving you two to Jiang University?"
Don't be fooled by his dignified and respectable appearance; deep down, he's a complete scoundrel.
"An old model that was released last year?" Meng Shen raised his chin arrogantly. "Who are you insulting?" Actually, he really wanted the 62S, but how could this person waste such a good car? What a waste!
Under the gentle sunlight, the proud and refined young master seemed like a boy who had stepped out of a painting, his skin so fair and delicate that it looked as if one could squeeze water from it. Guan Zhiji tightened his fingers, his eyes surging with hidden emotions.
Soon, a sharp and piercing gaze swept over him. He followed the gaze and met a pair of dark eyes, full of warning.
Like a ferocious beast, sharp claws lurk beneath its calm exterior, ready to pounce and tear him to pieces at the slightest movement.
This isn't the kind of aura a girl should have; it's more like...
...Standing face to face is Tang Yue!
Guan Zhiji couldn't help but recall Tang Yue's earlier words, his brows furrowing slightly before a surge of jealousy welled up within him. Yes, he was jealous of the deep affection between the girl opposite him and that man.
"Wanwan, don't pay attention to this lunatic." Meng Shen grabbed Yu Wan's hand and walked towards Jiangda University. "It's only a ten-minute walk, perfect for a stroll. Oh, right, we'll pass that milk tea shop again; they recently added a new drink..."
Yu Wan gave a casual "hmm," her gaze gentle as she faced him, but her heart grew increasingly wary. She had heard that some rich kids in the circle were indiscriminate in their preferences, and her childhood sweetheart, so exquisitely beautiful and spoiled, seemed to be exactly the type they liked.
But it's okay, she will protect him.
Regardless of the other party's identity...
"Wanwan, are you even listening to me?" Meng Shen noticed her distracted state and asked hesitantly, "Are you worried about Tang Yue?"
Seeing his oblivious look, Yu Wan couldn't help but reach out and ruffle his hair. "No, I was just thinking it might not be safe lately, so why don't you move in with me? The 3T Challenge is about to start, and it'll be easier to discuss things if we live together."
"Okay," Meng Shen readily agreed, but then his head drooped again. "But isn't that room Yue Ye's? If he comes back, won't he skin me alive? Or are you planning to make me sleep on the sofa? On the floor?"
Imagining that scene, he still felt he'd rather go home and see his father's disappointed expression.
Yu Wan glanced at him sideways, took out her phone, and explained while dialing, "I want to buy a new house near the school."
Buy another house? Buy it!!!
Meng Shen paused for two seconds, then excitedly put his hand on her shoulder: "Does Uncle Yu still acknowledge his son?" I want a dozen of these rich dads!
