Capítulo 893: Chapter 893: You Care About Him?
“I don’t know,” Shen Qiao’an said expressionlessly. “If it’s wrong, it’ll alert the enemy, putting He Jingyao in a very dangerous position… But what does his life or death have to do with me?”
“Damn!” Ning Ruixin couldn’t help but curse.
Shen Qiao’an glanced at her casually, “Do you care about him?”
“It’s none of your business!” Ning Ruixin replied angrily.
“Right, it’s none of my business.” He smiled slightly, “But if you do become the President, you’ll have to remain loyal to your marriage. That means you’ll have to be loyal to me.”
Ning Ruixin snorted, “We’re not married yet.”
“It’s only a matter of time.” He tugged at his lips.
Ning Ruixin found herself at a loss due to his confident tone. Their engagement was public knowledge, not easy to call off. Shen Qiao’an claimed it was only a matter of time; she truly had no way to refute him. Nᴇw ɴovel chaptᴇrs are published on NoveI[F]ire.net
Ning Ruixin thought she was the calm one, since she didn’t care who her husband was. But Shen Qiao’an, a playboy, stuck in a political marriage, must be suffering.
She didn’t expect him to be even more composed than her.
Ning Ruixin looked away, the two of them fell into a somewhat awkward silence.
No, the awkward one was Ning Ruixin; Shen Qiao’an remained calm as ever.
Fortunately, it wasn’t long before Ning Yichen arrived with some new documents.
“Here are the comparison results.” Ning Yichen laid the documents on the table, “I think my brother-in-law’s judgment is correct. These places,” he pointed at the map, “are likely hiding Al-Qaeda personnel. They don’t have a foundational base in Country Z and can only hide in the deep mountains.”
“Where is Lawrence?” Ning Ruixin suddenly spoke, “We need to eliminate him first so our actions can proceed smoothly.”
“Lawrence…” Ning Yichen frowned.
“If we don’t eliminate him first, once we make a move, Lawrence will notice, and he will likely deal with He Jingyao first,” Ning Ruixin said calmly.
Shen Qiao’an mockingly curled his lips, “You’re absolutely right. For his safety, please be cautious.”
Ning Ruixin looked at him inexplicably.
“Perhaps he’s hiding in one of these places?” Ning Yichen picked up the map to inspect it.
Ning Ruixin grabbed a copy and started studying it, turning to see Shen Qiao’an unmoved. She frowned, “Didn’t you say you’d help? Why aren’t you looking?”
“My duty is to destroy Al-Qaeda. As for the life or death of a certain individual, that’s not within my responsibilities,” Shen Qiao’an said indifferently.
Ning Ruixin looked at him oddly, “Do you have a grudge against He Jingyao?”
Shen Qiao’an’s brow twitched, but he said nothing.
Ning Yichen looked at his sister, helplessly tugging at his lips.
He Jingyao was purely an innocent bystander.
At that moment, his phone suddenly rang.
Ning Yichen took a look at his phone, surprised, “It’s Zhixi.”
“Quick, answer it.” Ning Ruixin urged.
Ning Yichen quickly answered, “Zhixi?”
On the phone, Zhixi’s tone was unusually excited, “I know!”
After returning to the old house, Zhixi wrote down every word He Jingyao had said to her.
She scrutinized each sentence and soon realized He Jingyao had mentioned the explosion from years ago twice.
The crucial point was that when he brought it up, it seemed somewhat unexpected.
