The Hidden Heiress Is a Secret Big Shot

Chapter 458: Chapter 458: Inviting Boss Xiao to Return to the Country

The night was deep, and the moonlight was bright.

Inside the room, light gauze fluttered as the curtains swayed in the night breeze, hearts stirred, strings of the heart plucked.

A tingling sensation spread along the spine, and Qingwu gasped as she spoke, “I didn’t mean to keep it from you…”

It was just that the matter with Beidou Star was originally unrelated to Pei Jue, a crisis that had nothing to do with him, and there was no reason to endanger him just because he was her fiancé!

“That means you don’t trust me. Do you think I’m an outsider? When Grandpa contacted me, those kids under your command also came to me.”

The implication was that the people around her would think of him first whenever she was in danger!

Believe that no matter the situation, she always had the ability to resolve it.

But also because they love her, they worry!

Pei Jue chuckled as he bent down to lift Qingwu, “According to what those kids said, it’s not bad for me to be your shield.”

It did sound like something the people of Beidou Star would say…

The room was filled with warm light, and a romantic atmosphere slowly spread.

“Can I stay?”

“…It’s not like you haven’t stayed before.”

Now Pei Jue’s pajamas were already in Qingwu’s wardrobe!

They were chosen by Zuo Wanjun herself, claiming they were couple sets, with two huge hearts drawn on them…

Pei Jue’s gaze became deep.

“I mean, I don’t want to sleep on the sofa, nor on the floor.”

Previously, when staying here, most of the time he slept on the sofa, and Qingwu’s room was carpeted, so making a bed on the floor wasn’t a concern about catching cold.

But now, he was no longer satisfied with sleeping on the floor!

Qingwu rubbed her slightly hot ear, got up, and took a spare pillow from the wardrobe to place next to her pillow.

After doing all this, she buried her head and went to sleep!

“Goodnight!”

Watching Qingwu’s actions, Pei Jue had a hint of amusement on his face!

So cute!

Lying beside Qingwu, this pink room arranged by Zuo Wanjun clashed with Pei Jue, yet still made him dizzy with emotion.

…

The next day, Melta Prison.

The desert and the straits composed a romantic tale of sand and sea, but hidden within the romance of the deep sea island was the world’s most intense bloodshed and sin!

Looking at the Black Tower Prison standing tall in the rolling yellow sands of the desert, sunlight reflected off the tower, dyed a dense black by blood!

Watching Qingwu and Pei Jue leap down from above, Boss Xiao laughed heartily.

“Ha ha, it’s my granddaughter and grandson-in-law!”

Since Elder Pei passed away, Boss Xiao had grown to see Pei Jue more favorably.

In addition, recently the Deep Sea had been covertly helping Melta Prison with various matters, sending large and small gift boxes, and Qingwu even personally made medicine pills for Boss Xiao, warming his once-roaming heart!

It was the first time since his sister’s departure that Boss Xiao felt such family care.

Qingwu looked at the spirited Boss Xiao, “Where’s Xiaoxiao and the others?”

“They went next door to scam! And bet with me!”

Qingwu raised an eyebrow, “Bet?”

“Xiaoxiao claimed they could scam the Wen Group into a crippled state! I don’t believe it, said it would be good if they came back alive!”

Boss Xiao was even a few years older than Elder Shen, already in his twilight years.

Elders at this age mostly enjoy a retired life, surrounded by their children and grandchildren.

It’s rare to see someone like Boss Xiao still fighting in the yellow sands!

Qingwu extended her hand, “Hand.”

“Oh, my health is fine!”

Faced with Qingwu’s stern gaze, Boss Xiao could only obediently comply, stretching his hand out for Qingwu to feel his pulse.

Boss Xiao’s health was still good, but years of battles had left him with many hidden ailments, and over time it was unavoidable that his body would feel discomfort.

“Why do you stay here?”

“Initially, it was because I had nowhere to go! My master took me in, and in life, one cherishes a debt of gratitude, right? My master took a bullet for me, let me leave this place, but how could it be so easy!”

Boss Xiao patted Qingwu’s shoulder, full of gusto.

Living in one place for a lifetime, even if the elders have left, seeing a large group of brothers behind, it becomes hard to leave!

“Some things rely on passing the torch! This prison can’t be managed by just anyone!”

Melta Prison holds too many prisoners with heavy sentences, carrying vast secrets in their minds.

Boss Xiao pointed his thumb towards a certain corner.

“Over there is the leader of a small country, being held but also protected here! His survival poses a threat to many; besides Melta, no one dares to shelter him.”

“Similarly, his freedom and many secrets will be shared with Melta! The day he dies is the day Melta receives intelligence.”

Though called a prison, Melta often served as an alternative sanctuary.

“His country is gone; what use are those secrets anymore? They’re useless to him! But to others, they are!”

Qingwu pondered silently for a moment.

“You stay here also to protect them.”

Boss Xiao smiled faintly.

“Protect them? They’re nothing! I’m loyal to my faith! Protecting them is incidental!”

As a soldier, his faith is always the nation!

“If this place falls to foreign powers, many small countries would be doomed; under a balance of forces, this place’s existence becomes reasonable!”

Qingwu looked at Boss Xiao’s rugged face, seriously said, “You don’t leave because you haven’t found a suitable successor? If Xiaoxiao can take down the scam group next door, you’ll come back to the country with me.”

What nonsense are you talking?

Take down where?

“Girl, the Wen Group has been here for many years and has always stayed out of Melta’s way; even I wouldn’t dare say I want to take them down!”

Qingwu’s gaze was calm.

“I am here, so it’s possible.”

“Girl, you’re even crazier than your uncle-grandfather was back in the day!”

Boss Xiao was shocked!

“Pei kid, do you just let this girl go crazy?”

“Uncle-grandfather, don’t worry, I’ll be with her.”

Was he letting Pei Jue go along?

He clearly wanted Pei Jue to try and persuade her more!

How is he as reckless as his granddaughter!

“No! What do you want with the Wen Group? They’re just scammers!”

Fighting against the Wen Group over the years, Boss Xiao knew some of their operations.

Primarily telecom fraud and, secondarily, organ trafficking, truly extracting every bit of value from everyone.

Qingwu looked towards the distant yellow sand.

“You don’t want to leave because, even if Xiaoxiao can lead here, he can’t handle harassment from the Wen Group?”

“I heard you’re having a birthday soon, the Wen Group’s going to make you a birthday present, do you want it?”

It was Boss Xiao’s first time receiving such a hardcore birthday gift!

“Giving it to me? What’s your purpose in that?”

Qingwu’s voice was calm, yet it stirred great waves in Boss Xiao’s heart!

“To let you come back home with me and take care of you in your old age!”
