lling them to leave him alone. He just needed to rest for a bit before calling for reinforcements.Those reporters were all pointing at Ke Zhen and their voices grew louder. Of course, Ke Zhen knew wha...Wang Xugang sat before Duan Xiangning, and yet another person walked in from outside the door.

He was a private, holding a tray in both hands.

On the tray were two delicate side dishes, a bowl of white rice, and a flask of two ounces of rice wine.

"Is this for me to eat"

Duan Xiangning looked at the wine and dishes on the table, and smiled: "Wang Xu, you look like a rough man, but you actually understand women so well."

In the past, Duan Xiangning wouldn't dare to speak to Wang Xu so casually.

She is indeed the eldest daughter of the Dali Duan family, but Wang Xu was also a prominent figure in China. During the Ming Dynasty, he was equivalent to an official from the Dongchang (a secret police force), specializing in handling wealthy families.

Du Xiangning acted so recklessly because she knew she wouldn't get into too much trouble.

Regardless of whether the Duan family leaked top-secret military intelligence, the fact that Emperor Taizong personally visited shows something.

Wang Xu, who had to show utmost respect before Lao Duan, was definitely not the kind of person who would make a trip for nothing and fail to accomplish anything.

As for Duan Xiangning's audacity, Wang Xu naturally didn't take it to heart.

He smiled faintly, lit another cigarette, and then asked, "How did you know this was specially prepared for you Don't forget, since I arrived in Dali, I haven't even had a meal."

"Would a real man like Wang Xu drink this ladies' sake"

Duan Xiangning picked up her chopsticks, grabbed a wood ear and put it in her mouth. She mumbled, then picked up the bottle of rice wine and shook it. Without waiting for Wang Xu's reply, she took a swig directly from the bottle and said contentedly, "It smells so good. How come I never thought rice wine tasted this good before"

Wang Xu didn't speak, he just raised his hand to look at his watch, slowly smoking.

It was as if he had come here just to watch Xiang Ning eat.

Two small dishes, a bowl of white rice, and two ounces of rice wine were all consumed by Duan Xiangning in no time.

Firstly, she was really tired.

And then there was her newfound openness. She had let go of what she used to care about, and her appetite had grown as a result.

Just like Wang Xu had tailored the meal for Duan Xiangning, she was full after eating.

Not too much, not too little.

It feels great.

Looking at Duan Xiangning wiping the corners of her mouth gracefully with a napkin, Wang Xu spoke: "Besides seeing that this meal was prepared for you, what else can you see"

"I can still see that it's a—beheading meal."

Duan Xiangning thought that when she uttered the three words "death sentence", she should have been composed and calm, just like saying "the weather is nice today".

Actually, her voice trembled slightly when she said those three words.

The world is so beautiful. Who would be willing to go to that dark and cold world during their prime years

Wang Xu smiled again, then remained silent.

Dan Xiangning suddenly especially disliked his smile, she just wanted to slam the table and shout at him to say what he had to say, if he had anything to fart out, stop acting so weird!

But she didn't dare.

Just as he was about to lose his temper, from Wang Xushuang's deepest eyes, he caught a glimpse of pity.

Why would he pity her

Isn't it because she's going to die

Just when Duan Xiangning suddenly became more and more afraid of the word "death," Wang Xu spoke: "In the next ten minutes, it's your last chance to leave safely. As long as you admit that you have nothing to do with the suspected leak of top-secret military intelligence by Duan Cuo Huang, you can leave safely. Duan Xiangning, you're not stupid, and I'm not either. We all can see that you have nothing to do with this matter. So why would you insist on being a scapegoat"

Duan Xiangning's eyes narrowed slightly, the smile on her face disappeared, and her voice became hoarse: "Wang Xu, do you dare to say these words in front of my grandfather"

When Gao Changzheng took Duan Xiangning away, he already saw that she was the scapegoat who stood out from the logistics station.

He was just too low-level. Besides taking her away, he didn't dare say anything else.

Wang Xu and others who followed later to the Duan family did not have to be as "timid and fearful" as Gao Changzheng. After all, they came to Dali with a imperial decree.

So even if Lao Duan and they have seniority, as long as they can, they will also be diligent.

They aren't diligent.

Xiangning could be certain about this, or else Wang Xu wouldn't have come to give her a "psychological makeover".

They knew Duan Xiangning was just a scapegoat, yet when they held the power of life and death over the Duan family, why didn't they dare to investigate the true culprits

That's because they were very clear that the Duan family and the Chen family absolutely could not cause any trouble at this crucial juncture before the live-fire drill.

The Chinese military would prefer, more than the Duan family, that the so-called top-secret intelligence leak was just a false alarm.

It all started with a lovesick girl, whose brain was overheating from her infatuation. She had a nervous breakdown.

Stable!

Stable development of the economy and military is what China needs most right now.

Du Xiangning could understand this, how could Wang Xu not

But now he was exposing Duan Xiangning's true culprit, which was clearly malicious and aroused her suspicion, leading to this question.

"I, I dare not."

Wang Xu gave a strained smile, didn't say anything more, and got up quickly to walk toward the door.

"Wait."

Duan Xiangning stood up from the sofa and asked, "I want to know, who wants to bring the Duan family to ruin"

"You're much smarter than I imagined, so I feel relieved."

Wang Xu turned his head, smiled kindly, and after uttering that nonsensical remark, strode out of the conference room.

At once, the guards standing outside the door immediately slammed it shut.

Wang Xuzhe kept walking, not stopping until he reached the room at the end of the hallway. He then smoothed down his clothes and lightly tapped on the door with his hand.

The door opened.

It is Wang Ci.

After bowing to King Xu, Wang Ci swiftly exited the room.

Wang Xu hesitated for a moment, then walked in.

This is Commander Liu's office, decorated mainly in black, which appears particularly dignified and imposing.

A girl in a white dress with a floral pattern, wearing a brown vest, her hair tied up in a ponytail at the back, lies on the window sill facing away from the door, gazing at the brightest star in the sky.

Wang Xu stood in the middle of the house, looking at the youngest and definitely the most beautiful mistress of this top Chinese aristocratic family. A wry smile played on the corner of his mouth.

"Uncle Wang, I'm sorry to trouble you."

The girl turned around, and the soft light immediately fell upon her face.

Her eyebrows and eyes are exquisitely drawn.

It's no wonder ancients often said that the more you look at a beautiful person under a lamp, the more beautiful they seem.

This sentence makes a lot of sense.

Yue Ziting, already a stunning beauty, under the light seemed to possess an added touch of sacred purity. Even someone as prominent as Wang Xu found it difficult to keep his gaze fixed on her.

"Alas, Yue Zitou is beautiful and intelligent, but her mind is a bit too malicious. Duan Xiangning only took advantage of Li Nanfang's amnesia to lure him to Dali. Is it necessary for you to take this opportunity to bring down the Duan family If the Duan family falls, what good will it do for you or the country Women, no matter how smart and capable they are, always revolve around one word: 'love'. In fact, am I not the same Mine is just human affection. After this incident, I repaid Yue Lao's kindness from years ago."

After letting out a slight sigh in his heart, Wang Xu smiled and walked towards the sofa: "It's nothing difficult, just ask her a few questions."

“Wouldn't she reveal the truth just out of fear of death”

"Master Yue, I believe you should have anticipated this outcome before arriving."

"Yes. Uncle Wang, you're right. Before I came, I already thought Duan Xiangning wouldn't be foolish enough to say everything. Helan Xiaoxin also advised me like this, but I still couldn't swallow this anger. I had to come here once to die of my heart."

Yue Zitong shrugged discontentedly and sat down across from Wang Xu: "Uncle Wang, don't tease me. Because we women are like that, we won't give up until we reach the Yellow River."

No.

Wang shook his head and said, "This matter, the Duan family has done a bit too much. You can't blame you."

"They didn't think anything of it."

Yue Zitong silently chuckled and said, "Uncle Wang, I have an unfeeling request."

"Do you want to talk to her face-to-face"

Wang Xu immediately guessed Yue Zihong's reluctant request.

Yue Zitong nodded: "Yes. Please rest assured, I won't betray her again. After all, as soon as I show my face, she will know my intentions. Although Duan Xiangning lacks intelligence, she is a loyal supporter of the Duan family and would rather die than reveal anything. So, I just want to stand in the perspective of a simple woman and ask her, why did she take away my fiancé"

Wang Xu hesitated for a moment, then made the motion of checking his watch.

Yue Zitong smiled and asked, "Well, Uncle Wang, do you have something urgent, or are you still figuring out how long our conversation will last"

"Neither."

Wang shook his head and said, “I’m watching to see if Duan Xiangning has been taken away.”

"What"

Yue Zitong was stunned.

"By the time you asked me these questions, she had already been taken away."

"Who took her away Where has she been taken to"

Yue Zitou spoke urgently, leaping from the sofa and rushing to the door. She flung it open and demanded of Wang Ci, "Did you see who took Duan Xiangning away"

"Yes, yes—"

Wang Ci was stunned for a moment, hesitant.

Yue Zitong impatiently asked, "Who is it"

"This is General Jing Hong."

Wang Ci finally revealed who had taken away Duan Xiangning.

"Jing Hong, Jing Hong's tenth uncle"

Yue Zidong also froze for a moment, and said dejectedly.

If someone took away Xiang Ning, even if it was Zhang Ju, the old leader from when Yue Zi Tong worked in National Security, she would directly chase after them, putting on the airs of the head of the Yue family to make them put her down first. Then she would ask a few questions.

This person is Jinghong Ming.

According to their identity, Yue Zichong's current status as the head of the family requires Jing Hong to treat them with respect.

But Jīnghóng's demeanor toward her was nearly always one of casual indifference.

Is it not because he is Li Nanzhao's tenth uncle

"Humph, he's quick to act."

When Yue Zitong said this with a pout, Wang Xu from behind chimed in, “That’s what I admire most about Director Jing Hong—she always knows the best way to handle things.”

“He, you’re just bullying me because I’m young, have thin skin, and am kindhearted. What’s there to boast about”

Yue Zitong was a little flustered and frustrated, otherwise she wouldn't have said such things.

Wang was stunned and stammered, "You, you have thin skin and a kind heart"

Yue Zitong's small face sank all of a sudden: "Isn't that the case"

"Yes, yes."

Wang Xu wouldn't dare to say no. If he really angered her, she might pounce on him and scratch his old face viciously, which would be too embarrassing.

“Forget it, I don't have to be like you. Let her go this time. But I need to go ask the Duan family—”

As Yue Zitong was speaking, the sound of hurried footsteps echoed from the staircase in the middle of the hallway.

A group of people soon appeared in the corridor. To everyone's surprise, it was the military district commander himself, Liu Commander, a deputy general, leading the way.

"Who is this again"

Yue Zidong, who had once enjoyed the same treatment as them, particularly disliked being treated equally. Her brows furrowed as she looked at the person in the middle.

He was a man in uniform.

In his fifties, with streaks of gray in his hair, he had a square face that exuded an air of authority. He happened to look up, and his eyes met Yue Zizhong's.
