Chapter 791
Lin Chuxue turned her head and couldn’t help but give an extra look at Xu Cheng’s profile.
Very similar!
As a childhood friend, when she saw Mr. Fang’s back as she came out the elevator, she almost mistook him for Xu Cheng!
But she also knew that Mr. Fang was not Xu Cheng at all.
His whole body was bleached white. With his neck and face pale without blood, and his eyes a little red, Lin Chuxue could not a.s.sociate him with Xu Cheng at all.
That was when Shen Yao’s words pulled Lin Chuxue back to her senses.
“Little Jing, stop it, Xu Cheng is still out there. I’ve gone to see him,” Shen Yao said.
Only then did Lin Chuxue take her gaze back and dismiss her doubts.
Xu Cheng also looked at Ran Jing and laughed, “What’s with you? Linking this together.”
“I’m a police officer, so of course I need to think more flexibly. Please don’t mind me. It’s mainly because Little Xue really misses her husband too much, so I just want to help her keep an eye on it. Mr. Fang do you know Xu Cheng?”
Xu Cheng: “No.”
Ran Jing: “You are the one who has to protect Little Xue, didn’t you do your homework before? Or are you pretending to not know?”
“Well Little Jing, don’t joke about Xu Cheng in the future. I don’t like you comparing him with other men,” Lin Chuxue said somewhat sullenly.
Ran Jing sighed in her heart, It’s because I see that you’re waiting for him, so I want to find out if he is the man you’ve been waiting for day and night. I’m trying to help you, silly.
However, Xu Cheng acted very naturally and resolved the tension. From his carelessness, no one was able to see any changes in his expression.
Lin Chuxue stood up and went back to the apartment alone.
Shen Yao glared at Ran Jing, then ran over and followed Lin Chuxue as they headed back together.
Leaving Xu Cheng still unmoved, Ran Jing said to him in a bad mood, “You’re her bodyguard but you’re not following her?”
Xu Cheng: “She needs some time alone. You shouldn’t make similar jokes in the future.”
After saying that, he got up and prepared to leave.
Ran Jing looked at his back and said, “With your position, it’s simply overkill to a.s.sign you for this protection mission, so I have to suspect that you’re here for something else and looked you up.”
Xu Cheng: “Then what did you find out?”
“Nothing.” Ran Jing said hurriedly, “It is because nothing was found, that I am more suspicious, suspicious of your purpose for approaching Little Xue, but I know that you will not hurt her.”
“Then you are still not at ease?” Xu Cheng said, “If you really want the best for Little Xue, stop the investigation because sometimes it is better not to know.”
Having said that, Xu Cheng walked away.
In Switzerland –
At a round table meeting –
On the projected presentation, there were photos of a charming woman with blue eyes who had both eastern and western features.
The woman was Lin Chuxue in her early years within the entertainment industry.
Oldman Rothschild looked at the six lords and said, “The agents deployed in Huaxia are all on the move, but they still couldn’t find Xu Cheng. It is as if he suddenly disappeared; we can’t let this go. If we can’t find this person to set an example, then it would be difficult for us to recruit more members in the future.”
“Right now, only the Abu Dhabi representative has seen Xu Cheng’s current appearance. Have you asked him?”
The Abu Dhabi representative shook his head. “That man has been wearing a cloak and hat to hide his face, my son has not seen him either. The Wei Nation people don’t have records of him crossing the borders, which means that he’s changed his appearance and ident.i.ty.”
Oldman Rothschild: “That’s the problem. He suddenly disappeared from our surveillance, changed his face so we cannot recognize, and now he’s in the dark while we’re in the light. Just like this time, we know he did it but we can’t do anything because we don’t know how he looks and therefore we can’t find him. We can only use the old way, and I know that it’s not in line with our style, but this man has offended our foundation. If he’s not punished, then it would be difficult to answer to our members. Don’t forget, we promised them that even the most powerful a.s.sa.s.sins can only serve us, and now four of our people have been taken out by this man! This has shaken the other members, and we can’t let this go on.”
Oldman Rothschild took a puff of his cigar then exhaled as he narrowed his eyes. “So… We can only find this woman!”
The Morgan Representative said, “Isn’t she already dead? When Ge Lie and the knight went to kidnap her to lure the snake out of the hole, I remember that this woman was very bold. She chose to die rather than be used by us and shot herself through the head. Her blood flowed all over the place, and a swiss hospital conducted her funeral. Are you saying that she’s still alive?”
The South American Lord shook his head. “Let me add: even if this woman is still alive and has gone back to Huaxia, not to mention whether you can find her or not, even if you do, Xu Cheng certainly has a way to protect her. Don’t forget that Huaxia has always been a country that agents and mercenaries try to avoid, because they can chew you down without even leaving bones to spit out. This country has advanced greatly these years, transforming from a developing country into a developed country, and we can not underestimate its powers. World intelligence has a hard time collecting information there, and we don’t know how many experts are really in Huaxia. If we go in impulsively, then we’re basically blindfolding ourselves not knowing what we will face. This would also provoke the country, and if the Capital Society gets dragged down, then we wouldn’t be able to handle the public opinion. We’ve already been exposed once in the Wei Nation incident, we can’t be put under spotlight once again.”
The others were also clear on this, so they also all refused to make a big move into Huaxia. After all, how easy would it be to find a woman that Xu Cheng was trying to protect?
They saw their personal-interests as the priority and wouldn’t want to partic.i.p.ate in something that consumed effort but gave no returns. They were, after all, tyc.o.o.ns from various areas, and if they were exposed in Huaxia, they would be shut out of the largest potential market.
When the time comes, the loss would not be worth the gain!
“Everyone.” Since Oldman Rothschild proposed this idea, he must have been confident in convincing the lords present.
The six Lords all looked at him.
Oldman Rothschild looked around at the leaders of the capital world as he said, “When the knight went to kidnap this woman, she indeed chose to commit suicide!”
Oldman Rothchild pointed to his own head and said, “Try pointing a pistol at your own head and firing a bullet through your brain to see if you would still be alive. Oldman Morgan was right, she couldn’t be more dead, but she is indeed still alive! Two months ago, there was a record of her purchasing a flight ticket for the M Nation, but she didn’t board that plane all of the sudden. So she cannot be dead! Don’t forget that her dead body was transported back to Huaxia, and if she was really dead, then with her status as a past celebrity, the media and public would have made a fuss about it. It’s unusual that no one has even brought such a thing up, which is obvious evidence that this person is not dead! So the main point of discussion of today’s meeting, in addition to getting rid of Xu Cheng, is this woman! Everyone imagines if people who died like this could still survive in the end… there must be something behind it. I think there’s a treasure behind this woman, a treasure that could revive the dead!”
The heads of the major consortia’s eyes brightened up!
