Chapter 67: Chapter 67: I am reporting my whereabouts Chapter 67: Chapter 67: I am reporting my whereabouts Pei Jue felt somewhat regretful. He reached out, grabbed a lock of Qingwu’s hair, and toyed with it in his hand.
“If it were somewhere else, like on the international line, their outcome wouldn’t be like this.”
On the international line, he was the leader of the fearsome Assassin Organization, Singer. People who fell into his hands often had only one fate!
Death!
The Lin Family should be grateful that they raised Qingwu for nearly nineteen years; otherwise, what they faced wouldn’t have been so simple!
Pei Jue squinted slightly and reached out to shield the sunlight from Qingwu’s eyes, making her meet his gaze.
“I want the Lu Family to go bankrupt. Does my fiancée mind?”
“Why should I care?”
What does the Lu Family have to do with her?
Even if there was a childhood engagement between Lu Mingchuan and her, the engagement was with the Lin family’s daughter, not her.
“You don’t need to tell me everything you’re planning to do. Haven’t you already started bankrupting the Lu Family?”
Qingwu was speechless at this point.
Did Pei Jue have some kind of problem?
No matter what he did every day, he would message her about it, sending pictures of his meals, videos of his social events, or even informing her whom he had met. If she didn’t reply, he would call her.
She had no choice but to reply with a sentence or two each time Pei Jue messaged her. Over time, she basically knew exactly what Pei Jue did all day.
Pei Jue chuckled.
This little ingrate, didn’t she understand why he told her everything he did?
“I am reporting my whereabouts to ease my fiancée’s mind and, incidentally, to make you think of me. Since you don’t have the habit of missing me, I can cultivate it!”
She was not used to having him around yet, but that was okay.
He would gradually make her accustomed to it!
“Tarzan messaged me, hoping I would relinquish Chang Yue’s consultation rights. What does my fiancée think?”
“Can’t you call me something else?”
He kept calling her that; the whole world would soon know she was his fiancée. Qingwu felt quite embarrassed…
“I can. How about ‘baby’ or ‘dear’? Other names are also acceptable, but I hope you save them for after we are married.”
Qingwu: “…”
“Forget it, just call me whatever you want. How much is Tarzan offering?”
“Are you willing to treat him?”
Qingwu nodded. Tarzan still held the head of the Love Orphanage. She needed to find someone to uncover the truth of the events from years ago. With a family like the Shen Family, she didn’t believe they would easily mix up a child.
Additionally, given Shen Shaojia’s matter, the doctor, who considered himself humanitarian, was also from Tengshan Hospital!
These things surely had even greater secrets behind them. Qingwu had to get to the bottom of it.
“Understood, I will contact Tarzan, but I have one condition.”
“What is it?”
Pei Jue held Qingwu’s slender waist with one hand, pulling her closer to himself until they were almost touching, creating an incredibly intimate atmosphere that even the air became tinged with a romantic aura.
“You must take me with you when you meet Tarzan!”
“…If Tarzan sees you, he might go crazy.”
Tarzan only wanted to see Chang Yue for his brother’s treatment, not to meet Deep Sea’s leader, right?
“It’s okay to use a different title; he doesn’t know my identity. I don’t want my fiancée to be with other men for too long. I would get jealous.”
Qingwu: “…”
She was a doctor, just visiting a patient; what was there for him to be jealous about?
Did this person have some brain problem!
“Oh, the last time I performed surgery on your grandfather, I also removed his clothes and touched his chest. Go ahead and be jealous.”
Pei Jue: “…”
His face changed color several times, turning from blue to white, completely rendered speechless by one remark from Qingwu, feeling uncharacteristically embarrassed.
Qingwu’s eyes contained a mischievous glint.
Shen Yurou woke up slowly on the ICU bed.
“Ms. Shen, you are awake, so you can be moved to a regular ward.”
“Why am I here?”
While recording Shen Yurou’s information, the nurse said, “You forgot? Last night you insisted on swimming back from the harbor to Qingshan County, nearly drowned, and Shen Fourth Young Master brought you to the hospital. Since you woke up, everything is fine.”
Shen Yurou: “…”
She wanted to swim back from the sea to Qingshan County?!
How did she not know about this!
It was clearly Shen Jishi disrupting her plan; otherwise, she would have ten billion US dollars by now!
Shen Jishi appeared suddenly, definitely not wanting her to make a fortune or steal Qingwu’s limelight. It seemed she needed to find other business opportunities on the Dark Web…
The nurse pushed her bed and glanced downstairs.
“That looks like President Pei’s car. President Pei is really filial, visiting the hospital every day to see the elder.”
Oh right! Pei Jue!
If Pei Jue saw her looking so delicate and fragile now, surely he would be attracted! If she could arouse some sympathy from him, she would conveniently tell Pei Jue how excessive the Shen Family had been to her…
After sending Shen Yurou to the general ward, the nurse left.
Shen Yurou sneaked away, heading toward Elder Pei’s ward.
Elder Shen and Elder Pei were downstairs, playing chess with a few gray-haired old men. That meant… Pei Jue was alone in the ward!
The more Shen Yurou thought about it, the more excited she became. She quickened her pace, adjusting her clothes at the door of the ward, unbuttoning a few buttons…
“Brother Pei, I’m here~”
By the balcony, Pei Jue held Qingwu by the waist, whispering in her ear. Qingwu responded occasionally, looking remarkably harmonious.
As soon as he heard that sickly sweet voice, Pei Jue raised his head, slightly annoyed.
“Get out!”
Shen Yurou: “!!!”
Why was Qingwu here! And why were she and Pei Jue holding each other! It was simply shameless…
Even before marrying Pei Jue, she came to the hospital to seduce him. Those unrefined country folks were like this. If it weren’t for her ruining her plans, the one Pei Jue was holding now would be her…
Major Gou rushed in, hoisted Shen Yurou over his shoulder, and ran off with her. He completely ignored her screams, quickly taking her away from the ward.
He also made sure to close the ward door afterward.
Qingwu: “…”
Major Gou seemed to be quite practiced in this action, indicating Shen Yurou had been dealt with multiple times before and he had gotten used to it.
“Does she come often?”
“I have nothing to do with her, trust me.”
Qingwu: “…”
Who he was involved with had nothing to do with her.
“I won’t allow her to visit my grandfather. However, considering Elder Shen is here, she’s from the Shen Family, so I can’t control that.”
Each time Shen Yurou used the excuse of visiting Elder Shen to harass Elder Pei, she was whisked away by Major Gou. Over time, Major Gou would pounce on her at first sight, package her, and take her away very adeptly.
Qingwu nodded, “I’ll have Major Gou stop her directly from now on. She doesn’t need to see Grandpa either.”
Who knows if Shen Yurou still had any Primordial Energy Pills. If she mixed them into Elder Shen’s medicine when he wasn’t paying attention, that would be troublesome; better to guard against it.
“Tell Tarzan to exchange the head of the Love Orphanage. I want him alive.”
Pei Jue understood her meaning, “Just the person, not easy.”
Only asking for the person might reveal some clues about Qingwu’s identity to Tarzan, which wouldn’t be good.
“Then add some money, ten billion. How about that? It’s a little low, but I checked Tarzan’s assets; too much more and the money might not be clean.”
“Alright.”
Pei Jue held her hand, and lowered his head to plant a kiss on the back of her hand.
“I’ll come to pick you up tomorrow. Remember to wait for me.”
