C59 (1/2)

Suri bit her lower lip until scarlet blood oozed out. He clenched his fists so tightly that not even the slightest pain could be felt when his nails dug into his flesh. Her heart had long since been gouged out by their love for her. It was so painful that every cell in her body trembled.

While A-Jin was rushing up the stairs to disperse the reporters. With a dark expression, Su Rui turned and disappeared into the shadows. He took out his phone and dialed a number.

In the underground information station in City X.

Lisa angrily smashed down the remote control in her hand. Instantly, fragments of plastic flew out in all directions. The sharp horn grazed past Ye Chen's cold face, drawing a thin line of blood.

”Trash, tell me what's going on?” Lisa pointed to the TV screen showing Ling Chen and Jane looking at each other with deep affection and anger.

How could she possibly recognize wrongly the killer white fox that she had singlehandedly selected? So she wasn't dead yet. That burning of the corpse was a scam designed by Ling Chen to lure him in.

Lisa clenched her fingers and resented her carelessness. Last night she had obtained secret information that the white fox had colluded with Ling Chen to investigate the assassination attempt on the same day. The organization's structure and underground communication location had all been sold to Ling Chen. Although White Fox had only mastered the basics during her time in the Military Intelligence Department, she was still able to crack the communication signal of the agents, threatening her safety.

Originally, when she received the secret report, she was skeptical. After all, she had personally witnessed the death of the white fox. However, due to the news from a few days ago as well as today's live broadcast, she had no choice but to be on high alert and focus on dealing with the current situation.

Ye Sha gently wiped away the blood on his cheek, and his calm voice carried the calmness of a killer. ”When I went to investigate, White Fox was indeed shot dead. As for today's situation, I, like you, have been deceived by Ling Chen's scheme. ”

”You …” Lisa stared at him, her originally pretty face now filled with wrinkles, ”Nonsense, I don't want to talk with you anymore. Is her message in the gene pool still there?”

”The news of her death was dropped when it was confirmed.” Ye Sha's heart skipped a beat. This feeling was a bit late. The expressions on the two figures' faces were so sincere and sweet that he had long since lost consciousness from the attack.

”Very well,” Lisa said, her expression so fierce that the air around her seemed uneasy. There was the nuisance of her concocting layers of evidence. Human beings in an organization are not counting individuals. Genes are the physical objects of statistics.

”Leave the matter of exterminating the white fox to your subordinate. I will definitely make up for it and take care of this matter flawlessly.” Ye Sha lowered his head, his face full of sincerity.

”You?” Lisa's suspicious eyes swept across his ice-cold face without leaving a trace, and then quickly returned to normal. ”Alright, you taught her, so you know her weakness and ability the best. You have to be fast. You have to give me an explanation within forty-eight hours. We must take care of Ling Chen when we move out, and I will send Shura to assist you. ”

”This subordinate understands.”

The Shura was another instructor in the Military Intelligence Division who specialized in the training of male secret service killers. The viciousness of his personality and the cruelty of his methods absolutely made people tremble in fear. The teams he trained were all elite, and he was specifically responsible for intelligence activities abroad.

Yama Minamiya understood that he could not refuse.

Lisa had already suspected him, so the only way to save Jian Fan now was to be faster than the Shura, and he had to get back to Jian Fan before the Shura did.

Inside the Lincoln Business Car, before Jane could process the meaning behind Ling Chen's words, the car had already circled the city several times before returning to the French restaurant across the street from the Ling Wealth Building.

There weren't many people at lunch. Under Ling Chen's guidance, Jian Fan entered the private room upstairs. The quiet and secluded environment made people's ears feel much more peaceful, but Jane Fan did not have much appetite.

”Xiaofan, come and try the caviar and goose liver.” Ling Chen looked into Jian Fan's eyes, but her eyes did not focus on his face.

”Baby?”

Startled by the tone, Jian Fan immediately came back to his senses and instinctively put up a guard. However, when he saw Ling Chen's worried expression, he relaxed.

”Oh, I was wondering how the reporters knew that I was going to work for the corporation today and that I was blocking the entrance of the building before lunch time.”

”I didn't ask you that.” Ling Chen's expression gradually faded, a little out of place.

”But I'd like to know.” She also stared straight into his eyes, as if her eyes could see through him and see through all of his thoughts.

Ling Chen cleared his throat in displeasure, then started to divide the goose liver into small pieces.

”It's me.” He handed the cut foie gras in front of Jane Fan and switched the plate with hers.

Jian Fan was stunned. It was unknown if he was surprised by his confession or if he found it hard to believe.

”During the celebration, your face was disfigured. I was afraid that you would keep it in your heart, so I specially called for the media to clarify this matter and return your reputation to you.”

His expression was very gloomy, but Jane Fan could feel a trace of loneliness and displeasure from him. It was her suspicion that had misunderstood him!

”You know, I don't care about that.” But I still have to thank you. ”

”Just thank you?” He stared at her. The depths of his eyes were too dark, like an endless stream of vines wrapped around her heart so tightly that it was almost about to wrap it tightly, squeeze it, and crush it.

Having lived together for so long, how could she not understand what he meant? The answer was unclear. She lowered her head to avoid his burning gaze and stuffed a small piece of foie gras into her mouth.

Back at the office, the news was full of positive stories about her praise and their sweet love. She had actually cleared the rumours, but his words that seemed to be filled with love had given her a taste of something else.

Ling Chen's words were still echoing in his mind, but a black shadow appeared on the computer screen.
