After finally getting rid of Zhan Pengnatu and the others, Balu pulled his wife into the bedroom of the luxury ward suite, hugged her, kissed and touched her.
Nanxi knew that he would not stop making trouble unless he made enough noise, so she let him do what he wanted.
"Be gentle, you're so strong, you're pressing me down." The little woman finally couldn't stand it anymore when he was getting more and more out of control and pressed on her, so she reached out to push him away.
"Wife..." The man was panting with red eyes and his Adam's apple moved, looking aggrieved and impatient.
"No," Nanxi glared at him, "Don't push your luck."
"Then help me..." The man who was always shameless in front of his wife smiled evilly and tried to pull her hand. At this moment, Nanxi's cell phone rang.
Baru's blood rushed to his head, and he cursed and reached out to hang up the phone. Nanxi glanced at the caller ID and said, "Don't hang up, A-lu."
She picked up the phone and kissed the man's handsome face soothingly. Seeing that his hair was smoothed, she pressed the answer button and wanted to go down to answer the call, but was hugged by Baru.
"Where are you going? Just pick it up like this."
Nanxi pinched his lower back helplessly, then sat down beside him obediently.
"Mr. James, what's the matter?"
"Miss Nan, I have some information. I wonder if you are interested? The price is very fair."
"Really? Give me a price," Nanxi said lazily, completely driven by a businessman's instinctive reaction to business. Baru had already returned to Yangon, and she didn't think James could provide any interesting information.
"For the next five years, all of your father's fund stocks and bonds left in Country M, as well as the portion of your inherited private property, will be handed over to my team to manage. How about that? I'll give you a discount."
"Such a large commission, plus your consulting fee, James, you have quite an appetite. What kind of news is so valuable?"
"About Su Juntai." James said again.
Nanxi then became interested and looked up at her husband beside her. Balu naturally heard what was said on the other side. He narrowed his black eyes and then nodded.
"I can let you manage the bonds and personal assets for a year. If you're satisfied with my performance, I'll prioritize renewing the contract with your team. Mr. James, you know, as a businessman, no one would put all their assets in one basket. That's common sense."
"Okay, Miss Nan, it's settled then. I'll send the agency contract to your email in an hour." James obviously got what he wanted and got the result he wanted.
"Then let me tell you the news that I'm interested in first." Nanxi said.
"Of course." James paused. "Su Juntai is dead. He was murdered in the bed of the woman he kept. His death was horrific. All the blood had been drained from his body. And the wounds were very strange. They seemed to have been caused by a special weapon. The flesh was pulled out from inside with one cut. There was no way to sew it up."
Nanxi frowned, "Is it a three-edged thorn?"
"I'm not very good with weapons, Miss Nan," James answered truthfully.
"Okay, I got it. James, keep an eye on it for me. After Su Juntai's death, who was handling the funeral? Send me a list of everyone who showed up at his funeral, paying special attention to Asian faces."
"Okay, Miss Nan."
After hanging up the phone, Nanxi looked at Baru, "What do you think?"
"William also died from this kind of weapon. I guess it was the 'Hellish Ghost Blade'. This thing is evil and unpopular, and few people have seen it. I only saw it in Daqili several years ago." Baru said while pinching her fingers with his big hand.
"Su Juntai just set up a trap to kill you, and then he was killed. If he killed him to show the person behind him, then you are the biggest suspect." Nanxi supported her chin with her palm and thought.
"Alu, be careful recently. Someone might cause you trouble."
"Is there ever a day when I haven't been in trouble? As long as Brother Meng is still in this position, as long as I can still fight, I will be a thorn in the eyes and flesh of all forces. When I was young and in Daqili, Brother Meng and Brother Jin rushed to the front and hid me until I grew stronger. I lived a peaceful life for a few years.
Now, in Yangon, it's either I kill them or they kill me. Don't worry, baby, I know what I'm doing."
"Yeah." Nanxi nodded.
She didn't understand much about political struggles and it was inconvenient for her to participate, so she could only remind him to be careful.
"By the way, why did you ask me to persuade Wu Jie to attend the birthday party of the Minister of Resources and Environment's granddaughter?" Nanxi suddenly remembered what he had told her and asked curiously.
"Do you think I brought this kid to Yangon just to take care of Zhan Peng's child?" Baru smirked. "I brought him here for a very useful purpose."
"No, Ajie is still young. Don't always treat him like an adult. Haven't you seen what his little hands have become like? It hurts me so much. Sister Zhenzhen must be crying her heart out. Can you please stop torturing Ajie?"
The little woman raised her hand and hit him on the chest like a spoiled child.
"There's no way, darling. Born into a family at the pinnacle of power, they have no childhood. It's not just Wu Jie. In two days, Hong Qing will also be here. They are part of this plan. They all know what they want to do. Their father holds the lifeline of the country in his hands. They enjoy the ultimate glory, but they have to pay the price of their childhood and freedom.
Our children will have the same fate in the future. This is the curse of class, darling. Nothing in this world is truly innate. Fate actually has a price tag already on it."
Nanxi was speechless for a long time after hearing her husband's words. Logically, she understood this feeling the best, but it was precisely because of her understanding that she felt desperate and unable to breathe.
"Okay, baby, at least I can promise you that our child won't have to be forced to mature at such an early age like Wu Jie. You can wait for him to grow up slowly, okay?"
"Why can you guarantee that? Even Brother Meng can't do it, so how can you guarantee it?" Nanxi pursed her lips, feeling inexplicably uncomfortable.
"Because he has Wu Jie supporting him. In their generation, having a leader is enough. Brother Meng led me on this road, and I led Wu Jie on this road. He carries the rest of his brothers and sisters on his back. Only by supporting each other can we go further and ensure the prosperity of our family.
The relationships among the powerful in Southeast Asia have always been complex, interdependent and symbiotic. This is the path that Brother Meng and Brother Jin have forged. Our families are intertwined yet independent of each other, unknown to outsiders. This way, we can ensure that no matter what happens to one family, the others can reach out and make a profit. At the very least, we can ensure the safety of the children."
Her husband's words left a knot in her heart. How many people could possibly understand the sadness and helplessness behind the seemingly limitless glory of the top dignitaries? Nothing in the world can be easily obtained. Only at this moment did she have a deeper understanding of this sentence.
