"A wife, children, and a warm bed?" Wu Guixiang scoffed. "If a man like him wanted it, there would be so many people vying to help him warm his bed. How could your sister-in-law have a turn?"
"What's wrong with my sister-in-law?" The Qian family's wife was unhappy when she heard this. "My sister-in-law is beautiful, has a good job, and is still a virgin. Why is she not worthy of him? Who knows if there is something wrong with him? Otherwise, why is he still unmarried at his age?"
"Whether he has any problems or not is none of your business!" Wu Guixiang finally lost control and, disregarding the neighbors' feelings, she started to curse. "Our Xiao Qin has money, looks, and everything he wants. If he wants to get married, then he can get married. If he doesn't want to, no one can force him!"
"Besides, even if he's a cripple, blind or lame, he's still way ahead of your sister-in-law. He's really a toad wanting to eat swan meat!"
"You're still a virgin! That's ridiculous! Everyone knows that the eldest daughter of the Qian family in Oak Alley was caught in bed with an adulterer, ruining her reputation and still hasn't married off," Wu Guixiang cursed. "What are you thinking? You think no one knows. You're dreaming! All day long, you're just dreaming about something better than doing your job!"
The Qian family's daughter-in-law was embarrassed by what she said, and her face turned ugly. "Aunt Wu, what you said is really unpleasant."
"It's unpleasant?" Wu Guixiang sneered, "I haven't said anything more unpleasant yet."
"Doesn't your sister-in-law just have a formal job? Why are you so proud? Believe it or not, as long as I go and talk to her, your sister-in-law will lose her job immediately." Wu Guixiang deliberately threatened her.
The wife of the Qian family turned pale with fright when she thought of what Wu Guixiang had just said about the identity of Qin Xun's parents. If they were really such high-ranking officials, wouldn't it be just a matter of a word to dismiss someone and lose their job?
Their eldest sister-in-law cannot lose her job, as they rely on her to support the whole family.
"Aunt Wu, just pretend I didn't say anything. Don't take it to heart. I'm leaving first." After saying that, the Qian family's daughter-in-law left in a hurry.
Wu Guixiang looked at her back and spat, "What the hell!"
She felt like she had won another victory, and went to the vegetable market with her basket of vegetables in her hand, looking very proud and confident.
"Third Master." Seeing Wu Guixiang walking away, Chen Musheng finally couldn't help but smile, "It seems that you are still a popular figure in this capital."
He and Qin Xun were just standing next to them. Wu Guixiang and Qian's wife were so engrossed in their conversation that they didn't notice them at all.
Qin Xun, who was sitting in the back row, had a dark face. He pressed his brows together speechlessly, not wanting to say more. "Let's go."
He was about to return to Hong Kong City. There were a lot of things there waiting for him to deal with. If he went back this time, it would take a long time for him to come back next time, so he came here today specifically to say goodbye to the Su family.
"good."
"Third Master, how about I go back alone this time?" Chen Musheng couldn't help but say.
"No need, I'll go back myself." Qin Xun's eyes were heavy. "There are many things that are directed at me and have nothing to do with you. I have to go back and deal with them myself."
Chen Musheng pursed his lips and said nothing. Ever since the Third Master's cooperation with the mainland increased, Hong Kong City has been targeting them more and more. In the past, they only did some tricks in secret, but now they are almost openly doing it. As soon as they reached cooperation with the capital, the news was passed back to Hong Kong City. Almost immediately, their Sun Yee On's influence in Hong Kong City suffered varying degrees of blows.
In addition to these, there are countless people secretly waiting to see the Sun Yee On make a fool of themselves, and waiting for everyone to push the wall down, hoping to take advantage of the chaos to get a piece of the pie.
This time when the Third Master returns, his situation will definitely be very dangerous, and he doesn't know what those angry E country people will do. Therefore, the Third Master came in person to say goodbye to his family.
Qin Xun knew all this, but he had to face it in the end. Avoiding the problem would not solve it, and it was not his character or style. This time when he returned to Hong Kong, he had to solve these problems and not have any worries. Only then would he be able to work more freely in the future.
This contest is inevitable.
Qin Xun arrived at the Su family and had dinner with the Su family as usual. He told them that he was going back to Gangcheng. Qin Ying and the others didn't care because he was running between Gangcheng and Beijing. They thought it was just an ordinary trip back home and didn't take it seriously.
After saying goodbye, Qin Xun went home and said goodbye to his parents without showing any abnormality.
Chen Musheng drove the car and the two of them went all the way to the airport. After getting out of the car, they were about to enter the airport when a voice called him.
"Mr. Qin."
Qin Xun and Chen Musheng both stopped and turned around.
"It's you?" Chen Musheng looked at the person in front of him in astonishment and disbelief, "Why are you here? Shouldn't you be protecting Miss Su closely?" The last time they met in Hong Kong, he remembered that this person had always been with Miss Su.
The person who came was Lin Lu.
He was dressed simply, his figure was straight and upright, and his expression remained calm.
"Miss Su is very safe where she is now and doesn't need my protection."
"Then what are you doing?" Chen Musheng was a little confused.
Lin Lu took out his ID and said to Qin Xun in a serious tone, "Mr. Qin, I am following the orders of the superiors. From today on, I will protect you closely until the crisis around you is resolved."
Protect the Third Master? Chen Musheng was stunned, and so was Qin Xun.
"Why?" Qin Xun asked.
"Your current situation is well known to the higher-ups. For your personal safety, the higher-ups have specifically asked me to protect you."
"I'm asking, why are you here to protect me?" Qin Xun asked again.
There were so many people in the special department, so why did the person who had protected Qingyun get assigned to him? Qin Xun was no fool, and he immediately noticed the subtlety of this.
Lin Lu didn't say anything.
"Is it because of Qingyun?" Qin Xun asked again, "Did she say something before?"
Lin Lu still didn't speak, but this avoidance of the question was already an answer.
Qin Xun guessed correctly. Someone was asked to pay attention to Qin Xundao's safety at all times. This was what Su Qingyun specifically told her superiors before she left. Su Qingyun knew it during the previous incident in Gangcheng. Her uncle was surrounded by dangers and wolves, and his situation was dangerous. She begged her superiors to send someone to protect him when he was in danger.
This time, the higher-ups had sensed the crisis around Qin Xun, so they specially sent Lin Lu over to protect him closely. Of course, this was not just because of Su Qingyun, but more because Qin Xun was now closely involved with the mainland and was their key protection target.
Qin Xun stood there with his eyes fixed on the spot. He felt his chest being filled with something warm, and his whole body felt relaxed.
It feels so good to have someone thinking about you. "This book is expected to be finished in a while. Besides Qingyun's life, I also want to write a happy ending for everyone else, so I won't rush the ending. You can also leave a message, asking whose story line you want me to write about (of course, you can also vote!)"
