The Hidden Heiress Is a Secret Big Shot
Chapter 99 - 99 99 We Still Have the Present and FutureChapter 99: Chapter 99: We Still Have the Present and Future! Chapter 99: Chapter 99: We Still Have the Present and Future! Ye Zhi stared at Pei Jue for a long moment, suddenly recalling the last time at X Bar when his boss was dancing in the crowd with a man. He even recorded a video intending to share it in the small internal group of High Tower…
Look at that, his boss finally had a romantic encounter!
“Who would’ve thought, Boss, that your romantic interest would be Deep Sea’s Singer! Boss, you nailed it!”
Ye Zhi gave Qingwu a thumbs-up, his face full of pride.
As expected of our boss, just amazing!
Pei Jue’s lips curled into a smile, casting a meaningful glance at Qingwu.
Qingwu lifted her foot and kicked Ye Zhi, “Have all the bombs in this hospital been dismantled?”
Ye Zhi expertly dodged, “Ah… not yet. Tarzan planted forty-eight bombs in this hospital. I’m still finding them.”
Speaking of bombs, Ye Zhi got annoyed.
Last time at X Bar, Tarzan and the Drug King also planted bombs everywhere. Ye Zhi spent the whole night dismantling bombs instead of doing anything else!
He didn’t even have the time to greet the pretty face who had a romantic encounter with his boss, and it infuriated him!
Luckily, he had the chance to meet him again this time, and he’s actually Boss’s fiancé, just thinking about it made Ye Zhi excited!
“Hello, President Pei. I’m a member of High Tower. Once you marry our boss, we’ll be part of your communal marital property! Looking forward to your guidance, President Pei!”
Qingwu couldn’t help it and kicked Ye Zhi in the back.
“Half an hour, one not dismantled, and I’ll dock your salary for a month.”
“Damn! Boss, you’re too cruel!”
Ye Zhi thought about his already unappealing paycheck, shed wide tears like noodles, greeted Pei Jue, and went off to dismantle bombs.
Pei Jue called after Ye Zhi, “Deep Sea also has members skilled in dismantling bombs. Work with them.”
“Oh, how can I trouble you like that? President Pei, you’re truly a great man!”
Qingwu looked over calmly, “Fifteen minutes. If you dismantle fewer bombs than Deep Sea’s people, I’ll dock your salary for a year.”
A year’s salary!
His salary wasn’t much to start with!
Filled with righteous indignation, Ye Zhi left, carrying the honorable mission to compete with the people from Deep Sea in bomb dismantling.
Now he had a deep vendetta with the people of Deep Sea!
Pei Jue opened the surgical mask on the table and carefully put it on Qingwu.
He was a good head taller than her, so he slightly bent down when speaking, making his voice seem to come from his chest.
“So competitive with my people too?”
“This is only right. You wouldn’t want the people of Deep Sea to be weaker than High Tower, would you?”
Pei Jue chuckled, reached out to tuck Qingwu’s hair behind her ear.
“Of course, but I just think people who are too weak won’t be able to protect my fiancée. Deep Sea’s people started for self-preservation, and later, they also protected who I wanted to protect. High Tower should be the same for my fiancée, right?”
“Yes, the same.”
People like them often operated in the most dangerous international zones, amid weapons and shadows, filled with desolation and bloody crime.
Qingwu founded High Tower with her own hands, and initially, it was also to protect the few people she saved from Beidou Star.
She, too, had been a part of Beidou Star. They were saving themselves, protecting themselves, and protecting the family they wanted to protect!
The year she was captured by Beidou Star, she managed to save herself, and also learned various skills with the members of Beidou Star.
When she returned to Grandma Lin, she specially prepared a potion to cover up all the assassin marks on her hands so her grandmother wouldn’t worry.
Grandma Lin said nothing, only held her and kept saying it was good that she was back, as long as her darling was with her.
During that time, apart from Grandma Lin, no one came looking for her!
Lin Jingsheng and Qian Yueqiang didn’t care about her safety at all, so much so that when she returned to Beidou Star multiple times later, no one knew what she was doing outside.
Qingwu looked at her hands and, under the mask, gave a self-deprecating smile.
Fortunately, she protected Grandma, and there will be more family members she wants to protect.
Pei Jue sensed her subtle emotional change and held her hand, enclosing it in his warm palm.
“Don’t think about the past. We still have the present and the future. Don’t be sad.”
How did he know she thought of the past?
Pei Jue looked at those eyes like glassy beads. In her eyes, now, there was only his reflection, making his heart incredibly satisfied!
He picked up a mask and handed it to her.
“Please, I can’t see my own face.”
Qingwu held the mask, a bit speechless.
Even if he couldn’t see his own face, there was a mirror in this office. Couldn’t he see it?
Facing his expectant gaze, Qingwu had no choice but to take the mask and carefully put it on for him.
“Let’s go, Tarzan’s brother’s ward is arranged next door, and now it’s just Tarzan and his brother there.”
Qingwu walked into the ward alongside Pei Jue, Tarzan sitting by the bed, peeling an apple for the middle-aged man lying in the bed.
Hearing the commotion at the door, Tarzan immediately stood up vigilantly, aiming the fruit knife in his hand at the door with a guarded expression.
Qingwu ignored his action and directly approached the man lying in the hospital bed.
“Extend your hand.”
The man on the bed had a pale complexion, his lips a weird shade of black and purple, and he reached out his hand towards Qingwu.
Tarzan was shocked. Clearly, all his muscles had tensed up, on guard against these two approaching, yet he wasn’t on guard at all when this woman approached!
“You!”
He raised his hand, intending to pull Qingwu away, but Pei Jue, behind him, grabbed his wrist.
Those hawk-like sharp eyes bore into Tarzan, coldly saying, “Mr. Tarzan, since you wanted to meet Ghost Doctor Chang Yue, you should behave.”
“She is Ghost Doctor Chang Yue?”
“Mr. Tarzan, you’ve placed quite a number of people around here. Are you saying you didn’t know who was approaching?”
Tarzan sheepishly lowered his hand, only to realize that the spot Pei Jue had gripped completely lost sensation!
Among the people he’s fought, only one had such chilling strength and killing intent!
“You’re the Singer! Since Chang Yue is here, I will agree to your terms, but I don’t understand why you need the director of the Love Orphanage?”
One of the conditions for Ghost Doctor Chang Yue to treat his brother was for Tarzan to hand over the director of Love Orphanage.
Pei Jue sneered, positioning himself between Qingwu and Tarzan, leaving no opportunity for Tarzan to approach Qingwu.
His voice carried infinite coldness and murderous intent, not hiding his hostility toward Tarzan in the slightest.
“It’s cold. My fiancée is afraid of the cold. It just so happens I need to make a human skin fur coat for my fiancée, and the rest can be mounted for display. What do you think, Mr. Tarzan?”
Human skin fur? Tarzan’s eyes widened!
“Are you joking? You went to such lengths for one person just to make fur?”
“Am I joking? Mr. Tarzan, don’t you know?”
