The Bodyguard King's CEO Wife-Chapter 1250: Arriving Ahead of Schedule

"In the East Sea, almost no one dares to act like Lady Gu does," a member of the Zheng family suddenly jested on the way to the Zheng estate.

"Haha, you’re talking about her, right? She’s always been like that," it seemed this person was also present at the hotel yesterday. As for directly giving Zheng Ji the cold shoulder, such actions, at least in the East Sea, hardly anyone dares to do so.

"Mr. Gu seems somewhat unfamiliar to me, he probably hasn’t been in the East Sea for long," the Zheng family member, apparently a chatterbox, idly chatted.

"Yeah, it’s been just over two months, really," Ghost nodded, speaking of the time since their last action until he regained his memory. This period wasn’t particularly long or short; previously, Ghost had never been to the East Sea, but after two months of living here, he faintly felt integrated into the city. Of course... these were thanks to Gu Xin; otherwise, he probably would still be a wanderer.

"I’ve been with the Zheng family for many years, and rarely have I seen Mr. Zheng being so courteous to young people," the person continued. "Mr. Zheng is truly extraordinary; in the entire East Sea, there aren’t many of the same age with enough merit to earn his respect."

"Mr. Zheng is indeed impressive," Ghost slightly nodded. Besides him, who else in the East Sea possesses such capabilities? Furthermore, his strategies far exceed those of his peers; collaborating with the Ji Family, Netherworld Palace, and Moon God Temple, leveraging external forces to solidify the Zheng family’s position. Ghost, who had been a "brain" in the Netherworld Palace for many years, still holds Zheng Ji in very high regard.

"Mr. Gu, we’ve arrived. Mr. Zheng has been waiting for quite some time."

"Alright, I’ll go in myself."

.....................

Two weeks later.

Yanjing, airport.

"Look, that girl in hanfu over there."

"Yeah, yeah, I wonder if she’s a celebrity."

Wuyan looked at the surrounding crowd, her face full of disdain. For a long time, the Worm Sect had been "isolated from the world," apart from dealing with Yun City’s local herbal merchants, they hardly engaged with others, living a life "oblivious to the Han dynasty, let alone Wei and Jin." Of course, saying so might be an exaggeration, but at least in terms of clothing, it’s very traditional. As a result, as soon as Wuyan appeared at the airport, she seemed out of place.

An eighteen or nineteen-year-old sect leader, an absolute beauty, and in just ten minutes at the airport, several "mysteriously confident" men tried to approach her, all of whom left empty-handed. Though Wuyan was beautiful, her aura was genuinely intimidating. Approaching her felt like pressing against an iceberg...

"Master, why are these people so weird?" The maid beside her seemed very averse to these men, with a notably displeased expression. These maids seemed around seventeen or eighteen years old. The Worm Sect, of course, had male disciples, but when Wuyan traveled, she only took female disciples.

"I apologize for keeping you waiting, Wuyan." Shortly after, another extraordinarily beautiful woman walked towards Wuyan. With the "meeting" of these two beauties, even more onlookers gathered. When have beauties started traveling in groups? One wore a silver-white office outfit, while the other donned a light blue hanfu. They were clearly a "sight" at the airport.

"Miss Ji, we meet again." Indeed, the newcomer was Ji Qian. Wuyan didn’t often leave the Worm Sect, nor did she frequently visit Yanjing, but every time she did, it seemed related to Ye Shikai. Or rather, every time she came, it was for Ye Shikai.

"This is my property in Yanjing. Having brought you all the way here, I apologize if my hospitality falls short." Ji Qian led Wuyan and her entourage to an estate.

"Miss Ji, since when have you become so formal?" Wuyan said indifferently. Compared to the Worm Sect’s tranquil and simple "pastoral life," what Ji Qian provided was almost "presidential-level" treatment.

"Wuyan, let’s get straight to the point. How’s the planning coming along?" Ji Qian asked.

"Of course, there’s no problem." Wuyan took out a small box from her pocket. Inside lay several large, "white, tender" worms. Soon, these worms would mature, ensuring Ye Shikai’s dantian recovery.

"Wuyan, there’s something else I wish to discuss with you alone," Ji Qian suddenly said.

"All of you, step out, await my command," Wuyan slightly nodded, indicating for the female disciples to disembark. This vehicle was specially designed, bulletproof, and soundproof, with no possibility of bugs installed inside. 𝒇𝒓𝙚𝒆𝔀𝓮𝓫𝒏𝓸𝙫𝓮𝓵.𝓬𝙤𝙢

"What’s so secretive? I assume if it weren’t important, you wouldn’t have urgently summoned me here."

"You’re right," Ji Qian nodded, saying.

"I’ve found all the experts you need. By the way, Senior Dugu is also in the estate; you’ll meet him shortly."

"Miss Ji, you sent everyone away, presumably to say something. Why not be straightforward?" Wuyan seemed to pierce through Ji Qian’s thoughts. In reality, it wasn’t hard to guess; Chen Yuxin absolutely wouldn’t want Ye Shikai to regain his inner strength. Therefore, if Ji Qian wanted to act, she must be "swift." Summoning Wuyan prematurely only increased exposure risk. Ji Qian wasn’t foolish; the Chen family’s "Shadow" organization had intelligence-gathering abilities rivaling Ji Yu, the "Spy King."

"We might need to move ahead with our plans," Ji Qian suddenly said.

"What’s going on?"

"Recently, my sister discovered something unusual with the Chen family; it seems Chen Yuxin plans to send Ye Shikai to North America," Ji Qian spoke shockingly.

"You must be joking. His legs are his own; moreover, in Yanjing, there are several warlords from the Netherworld Palace, as well as the Ji family and Moon God Temple; Chen Yuxin isn’t your match." Wuyan wasn’t quick to believe; although Ye Shikai had lost his inner strength, his subordinates were still in Yanjing. Three Netherworld Palace warlords, a few commanders, and dozens of hidden guards were staying in a rented house not far from the Chen family mansion.

"That’s the issue. Her actions are very covert; without my sister, we wouldn’t track the clues," Ji Qian continued, "North America isn’t our territory; that’s where Zeus’s God King Hall is located. If Ye Shikai is taken there, the Netherworld Palace members not only lack advantage but also must be cautious to avoid exposure."

"But... why would she do that?"

"I don’t know either. But if he’s really taken to North America, even seeing him becomes very difficult. That’s why I invited you early," Ji Qian said.

Both women fell into contemplation. Without inner strength, Ye Shikai was essentially powerless. Though Chen Yuxin was his wife, her actions were often reckless and unpredictable.
