Transmigration: I Have Storage Space in the Apocalypse-Chapter 743 - 739: As If I Could Be in a Good Mood
Chapter 743: Chapter 739: As If I Could Be in a Good Mood
——————
Especially when he saw the Scar’s walking posture, that habit, if not looking face to face, was truly identical to Xie Jingchen!
Li Jianfeng knew that, as someone from the Special Forces, they might know a thing or two about disguise techniques. After all, ’reminiscing about the past’ was what his Dad loved the most when he was a child.
He couldn’t guarantee if the man he had previously encountered was Xie Jingchen or not, and as he watched the figure disappearing from view, he pressed his lips together heavily and returned to the hotel with a burdened heart.
Seeing his wife with a smiling face, he furrowed his thick eyebrows, hesitating to speak.
Chen Dongzhe had never seen Xie Jingchen in person, so at this moment, he didn’t know what his uncle was troubled about.
After returning to the hotel, just in time to see little aunt coming out of Sister Yan’s room, Chen Dongzhe’s big eyes brightened with anticipation. However, after waiting two seconds and not seeing anyone following her out of the room, he slowly and calmly withdrew his hopeful gaze.
Sometimes, missing out is just a lack of fate.
Chen Dongzhe sighed deeply in private: Why couldn’t he have been the first to meet such a beautiful woman?
"You’re back? How was it, did you get any useful information?" Chen Xiufang did not notice her nephew’s gaze; her attention first went to her husband, who had a heavy expression on his face.
Seeing her husband looking like this made her a little nervous, but fortunately, she had previously been rationally briefed by Yan Jinsu about the current situation, so her heart was not as anxious as before.
"Xiufang, I just found out that two more pharmaceutical companies arrived this afternoon."
"Hmm, little aunt, I also found out that in the past few days, several more wealthy families have sent their household heads here. Clearly, they are all eagerly seeking the rare century-old ginseng."
"Isn’t that obvious? Who wouldn’t want to have some life-saving herbs if they had the money?" Chen Xiufang said with irritation as she glared at her nephew. She was more concerned about her husband, whose demeanor was somewhat off, pulling his big hand and asking in a low voice:
"Jianfeng, what’s wrong with you? Your face doesn’t look very good."
Li Jianfeng glanced at his wife’s nephew; while his wife might not notice, he was aware of the nephew’s inner thoughts.
But thinking about the fact that the Yan family girl had already given birth to five children for the Xie family’s second son and that a divorce and remarriage were out of the question, no matter what.
Thus, not wanting to voice his own considerations in front of the children, he simply patted the small hand on his arm, comforting:
"I’m alright, probably just didn’t rest well on the train, my head’s throbbing a bit."
Hearing this reason, Chen Xiufang glanced at her wristwatch and realized that it was almost two o’clock. She quickly waved to her nephew and said:
"Dongzhe, go get some rest. I will call you for dinner at five o’clock, and then we can all go out for a nice meal together. Sister Yan is also tired from the train ride and is sleeping now... remember not to disturb her."
"Alright. Little aunt, uncle, you should also rest for a while, otherwise, you will really wear yourselves out."
After speaking, the three of them each went into different rooms adjacent to Yan Jinsu’s room.
Chen Xiufang really thought her husband just hadn’t rested well. Once they were back in their room, she gave him a cup of hot water, then went to the restroom to prepare a basin of hot water, bringing it back to apply warm compresses to his temples on both sides of his head.
Li Jianfeng felt much better after a hot compress on his face and drinking half a cup of warm water. Then he sat down with his wife and whispered to her about the situation he had encountered earlier.
"You mean, you met a man who looks a lot like Xie Jingchen from behind? But he doesn’t look like him from the front?" Chen Xiufang repeated thoughtfully after listening, then shook her head and said to her husband:
"Honey, we can’t tell Ni about this. Whether he is Xie Jingchen or not, it’s clear he is on a mission right now. If we have too much contact with him, causing his mission to endanger, we would be harming him."
Li Jianfeng thought about his wife’s fiery temperament and didn’t mention that the man who looked a lot like Xie Jingchen was accompanied by a young, vibrant girl.
If he really said that, his wife wouldn’t be as rational as she was now, advising him to stay out of trouble.
"Let’s put this aside for now. Whether the second son of the Xie Family is on a mission or not, if he really is Xie Jingchen, then the disguise on his face means he’s in the middle of a mission. You’re right, wife. We’re just ordinary businessmen, let’s not get involved with things above our heads."
It should be noted that Xie Jingchen was previously on a mission and had not been seen for a year, disappearing completely, which made Yan Jinsu from the Yan Family quite furious.
If the irate Yan Jinsu found out that her husband on a mission was actually accompanied by a beautiful young girl, she would surely be livid, possibly leading to marital discord!
"Yeah, let’s just leave it at that. You rest easy and get some sleep. It will be even more tiring tomorrow."
Chen Xiufang herself yawned, covered her little mouth, naturally slept beside her husband, and was embraced by Li Jianfeng, the two cuddling together in a peaceful sleep.
Yan Jinsu had slept for a full three hours, finally feeling a bit mentally recharged. After dinner at a specialty restaurant that evening, with the entertaining Chen Dongzhe present, Yan Jinsu was all smiles as she ate. She kept gazing out the window, while attentively listening to the lively conversation among the three people opposite her.
Therefore, when Yan Jinsu spotted that tall figure outside the window, she almost jumped up in shock.
Fortunately, she restrained herself.
Because with just one look, Yan Jinsu noticed her husband’s slightly altered face, disguised, even seemingly luring someone out. He stood under a dimly lit street lamp, inconspicuously waving his elbow from time to time.
Having been by her husband’s side for a long time, Yan Jinsu knew that any gesture he made at this moment was a means of communicating with his allies.
But the hand signals were temporary arrangements made during missions, and their meanings were completely different from usual gestures.
Only insiders could truly understand the meaning behind Xie Jingchen’s arm gestures at this moment.
Seeing Xie Jingchen unexpectedly, Yan Jinsu’s smiling face almost couldn’t hold firm. Upon noticing Chen Dongzhe’s puzzled look, Yan Jinsu then raised a sweet smile and disguised her feelings by picking up her chopsticks and feeding herself some vegetables.
However, her downward gaze almost overflowed with tears. Still, Yan Jinsu forcefully curved her lips, leaving an impressively beautiful vista for Chen Dongzhe—
The moment Xie Jingchen received the information passed by his subordinate, he immediately followed the cues, turned his head slightly to look, and instantly caught sight of his little wife’s smiling face. Before he could even smile, he clenched his lips tight.
Especially after clearly seeing a young and handsome man sitting across from her, his displeasure reached its peak.
His head hung low, his beloved wife did not discern this, but standing diagonally across from that young man, he clearly saw the young man giving his woman a sleazy look!
Fuck!
Xie Jingchen’s mood could not possibly be good now— that would be truly unbelievable.
