Chapter 242 If you want to be her person, you have to sever ties with the S Alliance.
Want to know?
Looking at the handsome face so close to hers and feeling the other's slightly disordered breathing, Pei Jinwu raised an eyebrow slightly: "I'm quite curious to know."
Are you curious?
Upon hearing this, Shang Shiyan's body stiffened further, and the smile on his lips gradually widened.
He was certain that the little girl was engaging in blatant provocation.
"..."
Seeing her adorable expression as she stared intently at him, Shang Shiyan felt an even stronger surge of heat within him.
But reason quickly prevailed over impulse.
Shang Shiyan smiled helplessly, moved back to create distance between them, and said, "Eat your cake, you little glutton."
"OK."
Pei Jinwu raised an eyebrow, her rosy lips curving upwards slightly, and a hint of amusement appearing in her beautiful eyes.
Not bad.
They were quite restrained.
"Wait a minute." After taking a couple of bites of cake, Pei Jinwu opened her luggage and took out a spray bottle: "How did you get hurt?"
It doesn't look like a blade; it looks like a scratch.
"I wasn't paying attention when I got off the bus, and I accidentally bumped into a stone that was kicked up by the wheels."
"Oh." This explanation seemed reasonable. Pei Jinwu gently wiped his face. "Be careful not to touch it."
"I will be careful."
Shang Shiyan fed Pei Jinwu another bite of cake, his handsome face noble and elegant, his voice low and husky: "I promise I won't leave any scars on this face."
"..."
Pei Jinwu glanced at him, clicked her tongue, and said nothing more.
He's quite knowledgeable.
——
He Huaixu finished handing over the competition details.
Back at the hotel.
"I heard there was some trouble at the abandoned factory nearby, did you know?"
As He Huaixu tidied his things, he asked, "Do you know?"
"have no idea!"
Pei Jinwu and Shang Shiyan looked up at the same time and answered without hesitation.
"?"
They were so in sync that He Huaixu looked up in surprise and slowly said, "I haven't said what it is yet."
"I was just sleeping, so I couldn't possibly know what happened."
Pei Jinwu sat on the sofa, cross-legged, playing games, lying without batting an eye.
"I went to handle some official business and just got back a short while ago..."
Shang Shiyan sat down next to the little girl and thoughtfully peeled an orange for her, feigning composure: "What happened?"
Gunfight.
Seeing that the two were quite calm, He Huaixu had no doubts. "They were beaten pretty badly. I wonder if anyone got hurt."
"Later, the police investigation suggested it might be two major forces," He Huaixu continued, "the S Alliance of the North Continent and the Underground City of the South Continent."
"..."
Pei Jinwu and He Huaixu listened quietly without saying a word.
"I've heard about the feud between the S Alliance and the Underground City..." He Huaixu finished tidying up his things and sat down opposite the two of them. "Shi Yan, the S Alliance is in the Northern Continent. Have you had any contact with any of their people?"
"Um?"
Upon hearing the sound, Shang Shiyan abruptly stopped peeling the orange.
Fogfo hates the Hacker Alliance, which is an organization under the S Alliance.
This is practically a death trap!
"..."
Pei Jinwu also raised her head, her eyes fixed on Shang Shiyan.
The merchants are quite powerful; S Alliance's ability to establish itself in the North Continent is quite remarkable.
"I have never had any contact with anyone under the S Alliance."
Shang Shiyan's Adam's apple bobbed, and he calmly replied, "There's no contact between the two sides for the time being."
That's the truth.
The people under S Alliance are all managed by Feng Xing and Feng Zhi.
He had indeed never been in contact with it.
He hasn't even won the girl's heart yet, and now his identity is exposed...
never mind.
Let's keep it a secret for a while longer; we can kneel down and admit our mistakes later.
"You are not allowed to associate with the S Alliance." Pei Jinwu pushed away the cake that Shang Shiyan offered, staring at the man with icy eyes, and said, word by word, "Shang Shiyan, you promise."
S Alliance is her enemy.
If you want to be her person, you have to draw a clear line between yourself and her.
"Fog..."
Shang Shiyan was quite flustered, not understanding why the young girl was so hostile towards his S Alliance. He asked softly, "What did the S Alliance do to offend you?"
"It can't be explained in just two sentences."
Pei Jin leaned back, his breath steaming, his voice laced with coldness.
"good."
Shang Shiyan quickly reassured him gently, "From now on, you're in charge here at S Alliance."
"..."
Pei Jinwu pursed her lips, and her expression instantly improved.
"Beep beep beep..."
Just as the two were talking, the cell phone rang suddenly.
He Huaixu's phone was on the sofa, and Pei Jinwu could easily see the caller ID by lowering her eyes slightly.
Bai Luoshuang.
This is clearly a girl's name.
"My second sister-in-law?" Pei Jinwu picked up her phone and asked deliberately.
"Um."
He Huaixu took the phone, his face instantly turning serious.
"Aren't you going to introduce me?" Pei Jinwu asked.
"Maybe another time," He Huaixu said with a bitter smile, his expression forlorn. "Pack your bags, I'll wait for you outside."
After speaking.
He Huaixu then took his phone and left the room with a grim expression.
Watching his lonely figure, Pei Jinwu narrowed his eyes meaningfully.
My second brother and sister-in-law don't get along very well.
...
At the entrance.
He Huaixu answered the phone, his expression complex but his emotions stable: "Hello."
"I saw your competition video." Bai Luoshuang said softly, "Dr. He, congratulations on becoming a member of the International Medical Alliance."
"Thanks."
Hearing the sudden silence on the other end, He Huaixu gripped his phone tightly and took a deep breath. "Is there anything else?"
"Your father and mother said they hope you can come back home when you have some free time."
Bai Luoshuang pursed her lips and said softly.
"I understand." He Huaixu forced a bitter smile.
really.
She rarely calls him unless there's something else going on.
"Dr. He, my assistant told me you're receiving treatment." Before hanging up the phone, Bai Luoshuang suddenly spoke, her tone probing: "Your memories..."
"It has recovered somewhat," He Huaixu replied truthfully.
Has it been restored?
So he knew about the identity swap?
"My father insisted that I marry you, and I've always been curious about why."
He Huaixu hadn't intended to say this, but his reason prevailed, and he blurted out, "His biological son is the white moonlight you can't forget?"
The deceased childhood sweetheart, the white moonlight?
The buff is really fully stacked.
He fulfilled his son's dream himself.
He also wants to marry the girl his son likes.
From beginning to end, he was just a substitute for his son.
"Dr. He..."
Bai Luoshuang's face drained of color. She opened her mouth, trying to explain.
"That's all for now." He Huaixu interrupted her softly, his voice deep and resonant. "Once I've dealt with things in the capital, I'll rush back to Nanzhou. I'll cooperate with whatever solution you propose!"
Even if it means divorce, he will cooperate.
"..."
Upon hearing He Huaixu's words, Bai Luoshuang lowered her eyes in disappointment.
Does he want a divorce?
Although the two had grown distant from each other before, He Huaixu had never considered divorce.
Could it be because of that girl?
"good."
Bai Luoshuang's fingers clenched tightly, her eyes filled with glistening tears.
"..."
Unexpectedly, she agreed so readily, and He Huaixu fell silent.
Perhaps she had been waiting for this day for a long time.
——
There's more.
