Lin Xiaoxiao eventually returned to the detention cell.
When the people who had fainted in the underground prison woke up, they immediately realized something was wrong. They couldn't have fallen into a deep sleep for no reason; someone must have done something to it.
However, after investigation, no abnormalities were found in the prison, and no important criminals were missing.
It wasn't until the next day that they learned the Bureau of Investigation's database had been forcibly accessed.
The leak of classified information was a fatal mistake for the entire Bureau of Investigation.
The atmosphere within the Investigation Bureau was tense, with everyone on edge and suspicious.
The investigator opened the door to the detention cell, and Lin Xiaoxiao excitedly walked over, saying, "It must be my dad who came to save me."
The investigator did not answer her question.
They took Lin Xiaoxiao directly outside, where Sean and Ellie were waiting.
Lin Xiaoxiao was taken away just like that.
From beginning to end, the Bureau of Investigation never suspected her. A stupid woman would not have been able to evade all the Bureau's patrols and directly break into the database.
They are more inclined to believe that there was a traitor within their ranks.
While the Bureau of Investigation was working feverishly to find the traitor, Lin Xiaoxiao had already temporarily returned to New York.
Sean's eighty-year-old mother was having her birthday, and Lin Xiaoxiao naturally couldn't miss it, so she asked the CIA for leave.
The action department approved it very quickly.
It was as if they were afraid Lin Xiaoxiao would suddenly not ask for leave.
This shows how unpopular she was within the CIA.
Lin Xiaoxiao knew she was a relative, so she had no intention of cultivating a good relationship with them and continued to do things her own way.
The Davis family held a birthday party, and celebrities from all walks of life were invited to attend.
Among them are many Chinese who have done quite well in recent years.
For example, Yang Jinglu, the president of the Chinese community.
This person's development momentum is really strong. Even seasoned businessmen who have been in the business world for decades have to admire the speed of Yang's company's expansion.
"Miss Natasha, it's been a long time." Lin Xiaoxiao was just about to go to the restroom when Bruce, who was drinking alone around the corner, saw her and greeted her with a smile.
"It's only been a few days, but it feels like ages." Bruce looked a little haggard. Lin Xiaoxiao glanced at him a few times. "Mr. Bruce, you're no longer a real estate agent? I haven't bought a house yet."
"Or are you saying you don't want to do business with me anymore?"
Bruce had done something to Jenna's lover, and Jenna only found out about it then, which surprised her.
Does working in intelligence require such a sacrifice?
Considering Jenner's figure, looks, and net worth, Lin Xiaoxiao felt that this kid hadn't gotten a bad deal.
Bruce chuckled. "How could that be? I've been looking for suitable properties for you all this time."
"Oh?" Lin Xiaoxiao raised an eyebrow. "So, did you find it?"
Bruce took a sip of his drink, his slightly furrowed brows relaxing. "Of course."
“You’re right, Washington isn’t a good place to buy property. I’ve found a place with some really good properties.”
Lin Xiaoxiao gestured for him to continue, looking very curious.
"Adelghi, only 60 kilometers from Washington, D.C., has beautiful scenery and excellent infrastructure..."
"What are you doing?" came an angry voice.
It was Jenner.
Lin Xiaoxiao didn't want to get entangled with her, "I won't disturb you, I'm going to the restroom."
Jenna glared at her angrily, "Nasha, he's my lover."
"Of course I know, my sister." Lin Xiaoxiao shrugged helplessly. "I didn't intend to take her away from you, and you don't need to be so angry."
“Miss Jenna, we just chatted for a few minutes,” Bruce explained.
"Smack!"
He had barely finished speaking when he was slapped across the face.
Bruce pressed his tongue against his cheek, which stung, but he wasn't angry. Instead, he gently asked Jenna, "Are you still angry?"
“I…” Jenna looked into his gentle eyes, opened her mouth, but couldn’t say a word.
The hand that slapped him was slightly hot.
Bruce sighed, took her hand and rubbed it. "It's okay, as long as you're not angry, anything is fine."
Jenna's anger subsided instantly.
She has always been arrogant, looking down on others, and never bowing her head.
Even if it's her fault, she won't apologize.
At this moment, she desperately needed a way to save face.
Bruce naturally offered her the steps, and Jenna stepped down without hesitation.
Seeing the interaction between the two, Lin Xiaoxiao's face scrunched up, not understanding what Bruce was trying to do.
When Bruce returned from the restroom, he was still standing in the same spot, but Jenna was gone.
"Miss Natasha, aren't you curious about why I approached her?" Bruce couldn't help but call out to Lin Xiaoxiao as she walked past without looking at him.
Lin Xiaoxiao turned around, narrowed her eyes, and said, "I'm not curious, but you should know your limits. Playing with women's feelings is not a respectable thing."
Bruce put one hand in his pocket, swirled his glass, and smiled faintly. "Feelings? I don't believe a woman who's a womanizer has feelings."
Seeing Lin Xiaoxiao's disapproving look, Bruce laughed out loud, "You don't understand, but don't worry, I will do a good job as a real estate agent."
Lin Xiaoxiao pursed her lips, not wanting to talk to him, and left.
"A boring life always needs some fun," Bruce said with a smirk.
As soon as I returned to the lobby, I heard someone say that Chairman Yang had arrived.
Lin Xiaoxiao went up to the second floor to watch the excitement from above. The president of the New York Chinese Community Association was said to have moved his entire family to the United States decades ago, during the war, with the huge wealth accumulated by his ancestors.
The whole family has renounced their Chinese citizenship and acquired M country citizenship.
"President Yang, it's a pleasure to meet you."
The moment Yang Jinglu arrived, the few Chinese people at the banquet went up to greet him.
The moment Lin Xiaoxiao saw Yang Jinglu's face, she was stunned.
I thought he was a pot-bellied middle-aged man.
The result was a handsome, refined, and dignified middle-aged man.
Not bad, not bad.
Lin Xiaoxiao leaned on the second-floor railing, brazenly surveying everyone below.
The focus remains more on Yang Jinglu and Bruce.
Yang Jinglu noticed a gaze, looked up, and saw Lin Xiaoxiao. He smiled and raised his glass, and Lin Xiaoxiao also picked up her juice and nodded at him.
The usually flirtatious Jenner surprisingly only brought one man with an Asian face this time.
After all, in the past, no matter what kind of banquet it was, she always brought at least three men, and they were all white men.
With an Asian man suddenly appearing beside them, everyone became curious about Bruce.
Bruce showed no stage fright and moved with ease through the crowd alongside Jenna.
Jenna would occasionally introduce him to people, including members of the Davis family, such as Jenna's siblings.
Abnormal.
This is really unusual.
Everyone looked at the two from the left and right, and they all felt that the two looked like they were going home to meet the parents.
Jenner, who perfectly inherited Shawn's womanizing genes, is finally going to stop this time?
