Chapter 866: Chapter 865: A Kind of Upgrade Chapter 866: Chapter 865: A Kind of Upgrade “The military commander is indeed a military commander, his mind works so swiftly.”
Huo Beijiang, exhausted, rubbed his temples, a flicker of contemplation passing through his eyes as he thought of Zhuanzhuan, who had come to the Imperial City with his little wife.
This time he met his sister-in-law, his intuition was clearly different from the last time.
According to his intuition, Zhuanzhuan made him feel danger. Previously, he only found her odd, harboring doubts in his heart, yet he did not feel danger. But this time, it was clearly different from before, what could have caused this?
Huo Beijiang would never assume that he had grown cowardly–if his judgment was correct, it must mean that Zhuanzhuan had undergone an upgrade!
For example, if you are a murderer, then the state of mind when you kill the first person is absolutely different from when you kill the second. The more you do it, the more proficient you become. When you become a skilled craftsman, killing becomes a ritual, as simple as drinking water or eating.
This is a kind of upgrade.
The same logic can be applied to terrible terrorists, or a scientist, even a most ordinary farmer is no different.
The more you do it, the more proficient you become; the more proficient, the bolder you become.
Huo Beijiang couldn’t help but curl up a cold smile. Whatever could make a special forces King of Soldiers feel danger, certainly would be neither a scientist nor a farmer.
He was more inclined towards the first guess.
If that were the case, it would be truly terrifying!
A sixteen or seventeen-year-old young maiden, could she really achieve this? Seamless in conduct, masterful in control of her emotions, unfathomably deep in thought?
“Ning Di, help me check when Ying Jiuming will arrive. Make sure he keeps a close eye on the matter I entrusted to him.”
Since he felt danger, he absolutely couldn’t allow Zhuanzhuan to just live with Nan Fei.
Having already lost so many relatives, he absolutely couldn’t let his wife be in the slightest danger. If that was the case, then it was best to entrust Zhuanzhuan to Ying Jiuming’s care, so he could watch over her and he could be at ease. With Wei Qin’s man around his brother-in-law, he could also rest assured.
His wife was to return to the army for military training tomorrow, she wouldn’t be out for over two months, and in the army, she would be the safest.
Yu Xiaoxiao noticed the surge of momentum in Huo Beijiang and asked in concern, “Boss, are you alright?”
“I’m fine!” Huo Beijiang changed his sitting position, crossed his hands, resting his elbows on his knees, his body leaning slightly forward. In taking this position, he moved considerably closer to the two people in front of him.
Both knew that he had something to say.
“Has the news of the funeral been sent out?”
“It has been sent out!”
Huo Beijiang nodded satisfactorily, he was looking forward to seeing Leng Peixi’s reaction to the news, which would surely be splendid.
Leng Family Villa, halfway up the hill–
The living room was brightly lit, emanating a rich fragrance of wine. Leng Ran hummed a tune as he entered from outside; upon entering the living room, he saw Leng Peixi swirling the red wine glass in his hand, the burgundy liquid gently swaying in the exquisite tall glass, gleaming with the luster of rubies under the reflection of the crystal chandelier.
The color was as beautiful as it was blood-red, and as transparent and sparkling as crystal.
Leng Ran slightly narrowed his eyes, his young face composed and calm with a touch of immaturity, but when looking at someone, his gaze was already colder than that of an adult.
Leng Peixi gently curved his red lips, lazily sitting on the sofa, “Are you in a good mood today?”
“I finally got in touch with a good friend, of course, it’s worth being happy about,” Leng Ran replied, settling down in the sofa opposite.
Seeing her demeanor, Leng Peixi found it hard to feel happy. This niece was too smart, too unruly, and too difficult to control.
