When the communication ended, Jiang Chen's expression was perplexed.
Just moments ago, the Ghost Agent at the hotel used the tactical recorder to send videos of the hotel. He didn't know how to describe the feeling of watching the livestream of his friend's girlfriend with another man.
Self-blame?
Not necessarily, since he only knew recently about Su Fei cheating. When the two first met each other, Xin's intelligence department had yet to form.
Angry?
A little bit.
Ayesha gently squeezed Jiang Chen's hand as she seemed to have guessed what was on Jiang Chen's mind as she simply looked at Jiang Chen.
”Ayesha, do you think I should tell Yang Yuan or should I take care of this without him knowing?” Jiang Chen asked in a quiet voice while closing the tablet.
It was easy for him to take care of this without Yang Yuan knowing. He could take out the spy and then create a ”traffic accident” to also get rid of Su Fei.
Ayesha held onto Jiang Chen's hand and replied to his question with tenderness and determination in her eyes.
Jiang Chen looked back into the bright pupils and rubbed her head.
”Mhmm, I know.”
If it was Ayesha, there would only be one answer from her. Even if what he did may not be correct, in her mind, he will always be correct.

After lunch, Jiang Chen arrived at the construction ceremony site of BMA. The manager responsible for this project from Future Group was Wei Yun and previously a professional manager for hire before being headhunted by Jiang Chen. He previously had experience in tourism projects and was certainly a qualified talent.
When Jiang Chen arrived at the destination, he was waiting at the door.
When he saw Jiang Chen, Wei Yun in a suit standing straight immediately came to greet him with a smile and then guided the boss to the location of the ceremony.
The wave-shaped building was half-submerged in the ocean. BMA's architects cleverly used modern building techniques to mesh natural beauty with reinforced concrete. The U-shaped coastal area included a beach for leisure and a port to dock boats. The entire area combined restaurants, hotels, and shopping together with the sole purpose of providing all tourists with the best experience possible.
The name was the Heart of the Sea.
The meaning was the brightest gem in the entire Pacific.
The entire building had a total bill of 600 million USD; the price even exceeded the world-renowned Bird Nest. It was the most expensive landmark building in the entire project and the face of Pannu Island's tourism industry.
”Including Sheraton, there is a total of nine world-renowned five stars hotel that signed the lease agreement totaling 8000 square meters in hotel area at the ”Heart of the Sea”; the leased area will be renovated to their hotel's brand. The lease is 5000 USD per square meters with a total of 40 million in lease payment due each year.”
”In the shopping and restaurant areas, we have received 8501 applications with 6510 coming from international bidders. Out of the 450 thousand square meters total area, 250 thousand has been leased out. Based on the 3000 USD per square meter of lease payments, earnings are expected to reach 750 million USD.”
”After the cost of electricity, labor, maintenance, if the projection is accurate, the Heart of the Sea will produce at least 200 million USD in profits for us.”
Based on the benchmark, using the international markets, the lease was not expensive. The consideration was partially due to Xin's tourism industry being in its infancy as the companies that invest here must also bear a high degree of risk. If the rent were too expensive, it would be unattractive for international food, service, and retail companies to invest.
