Chapter 24 Who exactly is the visitor? He Zaining's promise; Chu Jingze...
While Ji Yao was preparing, Xu Lingzhao went to rescue He Zaining. She was carrying a bag of new clothes that fit He Zaining's size. She was ready to kill Ji Siyu and not let He Zaining live in the shadow of humiliation.
Upon arriving at the villa's entrance, she now possessed the highest level of authority. The planetary soldiers patrolling around the villa dared not stop her. She directly scanned her iris to open the villa's door. The living room lights were on, and Xu Lingzhao took a few steps inside, where she saw a very warm and cozy scene.
At the dining table, He Zaining carefully fed Ji Siyu, who was in his arms, with a spoon. Both of them were wearing pajamas, and they were even matching outfits... The hickeys on their necks were quite noticeable, especially Ji Siyu, who looked shy and would occasionally kiss He Zaining. He Zaining didn't seem impatient at all; on the contrary, he looked very shy...
...What's going on? The two people in front of me are so engrossed in each other. Xu Lingzhao coughed lightly, and the two people in front of him, who were looking at each other affectionately and affectionately, seemed to wake up from a dream and looked at the source of the sound. Ji Siyu, in particular, snuggled into He Zaining's arms like a startled bird.
Xu Lingzhao had shed her disguise. Her golden eyes met He Zaining's. The two were speechless, and the atmosphere was awkward for a moment. Xu Lingzhao spoke first, having already seen He Zaining's face turn bright red: "I...I'll wait for you outside." After saying that, she turned and left.
Something's not right, is it? Xu Lingzhao was completely baffled. These two looked like they were in a... marked state, like a couple. She thought about it for a moment, He Zaining had been single for 24 years... that made sense... Footsteps sounded behind her. Xu Lingzhao turned around to look at her. The person in front of her had a rosy complexion and didn't look like she had been abused at all.
“The mission is almost complete. We can return to Pasifica in a day or two. What’s going on between you and him?” Xu Lingzhao asked cautiously.
"Uh...that...I...I've marked him for life..." He Zaining said somewhat embarrassedly.
Seeing her unusually coy demeanor, Xu Lingzhao wiped away imaginary sweat from his face: "Voluntary? Then do you like him?"
Seeing He Zaining deep in thought, Xu Lingzhao didn't rush her, but simply waited quietly for her reply.
"It's kind of voluntary, I guess. I like... I think I like him." He Zaining took a deep breath, as if he had made a decision: "When we were captured, he saved me and our whole squad. I want to... take him back."
Xu Lingzhao nodded. Since she liked him, she didn't feel comfortable saying anything more. Just as she was about to continue talking about the next task, Ji Siyu opened the door, put on her pajamas, and rushed towards He Zaining, jumping into his arms. After being caught steadily, he cupped her face and said happily, "You finally admitted that you like me!!"
Seeing this, Xu Lingzhao turned around and said, "Come with me somewhere in a bit." She walked to the flowerbed in front of the villa, leaving them alone. She touched a peony in full bloom, her mind wandering. She wondered how Chu Jingze was doing. If she went back, he would be very happy, and their affection would be no less than theirs.
She gave a faint smile, deciding to give Chu Jingze a surprise, when she heard the sound of the villa door closing.
Inside the villa, He Zaining put Ji Siyu down and closed the collar of his shirt, which was showing his chest. Her tone was somewhat serious: "You...you are an Omega, you can't just do this in public."
"So it's okay to do this in front of you?" Ji Siyu traced circles on He Zaining's collarbone with her fingers, her eyes sparkling as she looked at the person in front of her.
“You…can do it in front of me.” He Zaining said quickly, then looked at Ji Siyu: “Zhaozhao succeeded, the situation will change drastically, I need to go assist her, I’ll be leaving soon.”
"What about me? Are you going to abandon me?" Ji Siyu feigned grievance, his eyes brimming with tears. His fingers, which had been circling, loosened as he clutched the hem of his clothes. Of course, he knew the situation had changed, and for the sake of living well in the future, the person in front of him was the best choice at the moment.
"Huh? I didn't. Didn't you just hear me? I said I would take you away, but the conditions in Pasifica aren't that good yet." He Zaining placed his hands on his shoulders and looked at him. Seeing that the corners of his eyes were red, he couldn't help but touch the corners of his eyes.
Seeing that this tactic had worked, Ji Siyu raised her eyes and looked seriously at the person in front of her: "Then, in what capacity should I go to Pasifica, um? Minister He?"
He Zaining couldn't stand him like this. She pulled his hand away from her clothes, took it in hers, and looked at the person in front of her with the same serious gaze. Her tone was gentle but firm: "Of course you are my wife. I will not let you down. I'll go get dressed first. You wait for me at home."
After comforting Ji Siyu, He Zaining picked up the clothes Xu Lingzhao had placed on the table and went into the dressing room. Looking at herself in the mirror, she breathed a sigh of relief. The words "survived a disaster" perfectly described her situation. If she hadn't met Ji Siyu, she probably would have died long ago. If Zhaozhao hadn't succeeded, she didn't know how long she would have been locked up here or how many dangers she would have faced.
If any one link were missing, she wouldn't be here safely. Her gaze was gloomy, and she uttered two words: "Traitor."
Xu Lingzhao checked the time; it was almost time. Just as she turned around, He Zaining opened the villa door. The two got into Ji Siyu's car and headed to Xitiya's headquarters. Inside the car, Xu Lingzhao inquired about the entire incident when He Zaining's team was ambushed.
a long time.
"Why did Zhenwei do this? I don't understand," Xu Lingzhao said, looking at the group photo of the five of them on the personal terminal, as past memories surfaced in her mind.
"I don't understand either. We grew up together, yet she... wanted to kill me." He Zaining's face was filled with desolation. When she recalled that scene, she felt utterly hopeless. She was seriously injured and dragged away by the rebels. When she first saw Ji Siyu's vicious appearance, she wished she could bite her tongue and kill herself on the spot, but she was unwilling to die like that.
Fortunately, Ji Siyu only acted rudely, and He Zaining showed a faint smile.
Seeing her like this, Xu Lingzhao poked her shoulder with her finger: "What are you laughing at? You're acting crazy? By the way, do you really like Ji Siyu? I've heard he's a bit of a womanizer, and..." She paused, then opened the StarNet search: "Weren't you engaged? Look, the news from back then is still there."
He Zaining looked at the screen, touched his forehead, and said sheepishly, "I had forgotten about this. I'll handle it."
"Okay, resolve this properly. Let me know if you need any help, but don't hurt either of them." Xu Lingzhao put away his personal terminal. Seeing He Zaining unharmed was already a great joy. As for Ji Siyu, as long as he didn't hurt He Zaining's feelings or do anything out of line, that was enough.
Xu Lingzhao didn't care.
Inside the ward.
Chu Jing slowly opened his eyes. A sharp pain in his head made him gasp. The first thing he saw was a white ceiling. He looked at his sleeve—a hospital gown? Why am I in a hospital? Who am I? Why don't I remember anything?
The ring on his ring finger puzzled Chu Jing even more. He sat up abruptly, raised his hand, took off the ring, and examined it closely. Looking at the name engraved inside—Xu Lingzhao—he murmured, "Who is this? Why don't I remember anything about it?"
Hearing the door open, Chu Jing looked nervously at the doorway. Could it be her?
When Lu Qianxue came in after finishing her call, she found Chu Jing staring straight at her. She coughed lightly and said, "You're awake. I'm a friend of your partner." She paused and then added, "Your partner is Xu Lingzhao."
After she finished speaking, Lu Qianxue saw the obvious disappointment on Chu Jingze's face, and then he asked, "Who am I?"
Lu Qianxue handed him a personal computer: "Your detailed information is in here, you can take a look."
"Okay, thank you." Chu Jing took the personal computer, slid his finger across the screen, and carefully looked at the information on the screen. His finger slowly slid until it stopped on a photo, a photo of Xu Lingzhao.
To be precise, it's a photo of the two of them. In the photo, Xu Lingzhao is smiling with her eyes crinkled, and the person in her arms, blushing and smiling just as much, is herself. This blond Alpha is so handsome... and his mental strength level is 3S. Is this really my Alpha?
Chu Jing looked up at Ling Qianzhu, who was sitting on the opposite sofa watching the light screen, and asked softly, "Why...did I lose my memory?"
“There’s a traitor who wanted to capture you to threaten Zhao Zhao, but Zhao Zhao saved you,” Lu Qianxue replied, turning off the light screen.
The person opposite nodded, then hesitated before speaking again, "Where is she? Why didn't she come?" Chu Jing lowered his head, feeling a sense of loss. He didn't know why he felt so depressed and uncomfortable.
“She’ll be here tomorrow. I’ll pick you up and take you back to the villa later.” Ling Qianzhu looked at his somewhat sad expression: “Zhao Zhao loves you very much, but she has too many things to do and can’t get away.”
Hearing this, Chu Jing bit her lip and nodded, feeling very sad. She clearly didn't remember anything, but why did hearing this name and looking at her photo evoke such a sad feeling?
Does she really love me as she says? Has she done something to hurt me? Emotions surged like a raging flood, and he felt utterly powerless and exhausted.
Inside the magnificent, long-table conference room.
Ji Yao sat in the first seat on the left, leaving the main seat open. She leaned back in her chair, smoking a cigar, ignoring the puzzled expressions of the others. Those present were all leaders from the other three districts and the Federation.
Chu Jingyi tapped his fingers on the table, his gloved hand pushing up his gold-rimmed glasses. He was somewhat puzzled by Ji Yao's intentions. Apart from Pasifica, almost all the forces had cooperated with the rebels. Logically, Ji Yao should be sitting in the main seat, but... He looked at Huo Qingshan beside him.
I also saw confusion in his eyes.
He looked around; all the seats were occupied except for the head seat. This time, the door was pushed open.
All eyes were fixed on the doorway. Who was it? What was the purpose of this meeting? Why was Ji Yao doing this? Countless questions arose.
Perhaps only this person who arrived late can provide the answer to the mystery.
